Leila tong, Samuel Pang, and Maggie Siu (邵美琪) will be working together in Dennis Law‘s new film. Leila will act a mother who has a lot of mental problems; knowing that her boyfriend sexually harassed her daughter but still does not say anything. There are a lot of more personal scenes, giving Leila’s acting skills a huge test. Dennis Law said, “I think Leila’s acting is really good. The character’s inner feelings are very complex and I really want Leila to act this part. This movie combines some of the more recent styles of detective movies into it. The main female character is a woman who knows that her boyfriend has sexually harassed her daughter, but says nothing about it. In the end she personally kills her daughter. At first I thought Leila wouldn’t agree to this part, but after she read the script she thought the character would be a big challenge for her and she accepted it”.

Yesterday at the Hong Kong premiere, Chun actually shed tears and he explained that it was because when he saw in the movie that Charlene has to separate with her father, it made him think of in reality, where he also cannot be with his family due to work, and he cannot help but tear up.

“Butterfly Lovers” will officially air on the 9th of October, and coincidentally, one day later will be Chun’s birthday. The movie company specially incorporated the idea of “2 jin (equal to half a kg) wine, 1 jin meat” from the movie and brought it to the premiere in real life.

Um, I don’t know what to say. It’s been more than a year and a half since we’ve started working together. Ehen I look back, we went through a lot together, good and sad experiences. There are a lot of people who cheered us on and helped us come to where we are now..ever since those people cheered us on…we didn’t look back, we just ran straight…and in between this journey, I’ve always felt thankful…. but since we spend so much time together everyday I feel like there were a lot of times when we could not really express our feelings and use common phrases like “thank you,” “I love you,” and “sorry.”

There’s probably going to be a time when we think this is going to be the end of our journey, but instead of these thoughts, I hope we live each day being grateful for our experiences, especially the special experiences we 5 members have together.

The preorders for Jay Chou's upcoming album, "Capricorn," have already broken the record set by his last album, "On the Run."

JVR Music, Chou's company, has prolonged the preordering event and postponed the release date to October 15, Web site 21cn.com reported Monday.

This move is regarded as a better way to meet the growing demand and protect Chou's copyright over concerns of online leaks.

The album's hit song, "Fragrant Rice," for which Chou wrote the lyrics and melody himself, has been a sensation since it premiered worldwide on September 22.

Currently, the pop king is busy shooting the music video for the second single, "Where's the Promised Happiness?" written with his long-term cooperator, lyricist Vincent Fang.

Chou is already knowledgeable in terms of directing, thanks to his directorial debut "Secret" last year.

For the music video, Chou chose an old building as the backdrop for his piano playing, echoing the sad tone of the song.

Since the start of his career, Chou has released new music at a rate of one album a year.
