Jerry's { I love you } lyrics

我沒有辦法離開妳
wo mei you ban fa li kai ni
I love you (There is no wat I can leave you)
詞:徐世珍 曲:黃韻玲
Lyrics : Xu Shi Zhen Music : Huang Yun Ling

愛上妳的眼睛
ai shang ni de yan jing
I fell in love with your eyes

最清澈的表情
zui qing che de biao qing
The clearest of expressions

在妳的面前我潰不成軍
zai ni de mian qian wo kui bu cheng jun
I fall apart in front of you

只想要緊緊的抱著妳
zhi xiang yao jing jing yao bao zhe ni
I only want to hold you tight

把全世界都忘記
ba quan shi jie dou wang ji
And forget all about the whole world

可是愛不容易
ke shi ai bu rong yi
But love is not easy

我寧願不容易
wo yuan yi bu rong yi
I am willing to not take it easy

寧願每道傷痕妳都簽名
ning yuan mei dao shang heng ni dou qian ming
Willingly I let you sign every scar

也不要生命里沒有妳
ye bu yao sheng ming mei you ni
But I do not want Life without you

連想妳的痛我都收集
lian xiang ni de tong wo dou shou ji
I collect even the pain of missing you

我沒有辦法離開妳
wo mei you ban fa li kai ni
There is no way that I can leave you

粉身碎骨不可惜
fen shen cui gu bu ke xi
I won’t regret it even at the cost of my life

只求神成全比妳多活一天
zhi qiu shen cheng quan yu ni duo huo yi tian
Only wish that the Heavens will grant me to live a day longer than you

妳一個人我不放心
ni yi ge ren wo bu fang xin
I worry that you are all alone

我沒有辦法離開妳
wo mei you ban fa li kai ni
There is no way that I can leave you

忍不住對妳貪心
ren bu zhu dui ni tan xin
Can’t bear but be greedy with you

感激命運里畢竟有妳
gan ji ming yun bi jing you ni
So grateful to Destiny for having you at long last

如果是夢永遠不要醒
ru guo shi meng yong yuan bu yao xing
If this is a dream, I won’t ever want to awaken

愛上妳的眼睛
ai shang ni de yan jing
I fell in love with your eyes

最清澈的表情
zui qing che de biao qing
The clearest of expressions

在妳的面前我潰不成軍
zai ni de mian qian wo kui bu cheng jun
I fall apart in front of you

只想要緊緊的抱住妳
zhi xiang yao jing jing yao bao zhe ni
I only want to hold onto you tightly

把全世界都忘記
ba quan shi jie dou wang ji
And forget all about the whole world

可是愛不容易
ke shi ai bu rong yi
But love is not easy

我寧願不容易
wo yuan yi bu rong yi
I am willing to not take it easy

寧願每道傷痕妳都簽名
ning yuan mei dao shang heng ni dou qian ming
Willingly I let you sign every scar

也不要生命里沒有妳
ye bu yao sheng ming mei you ni
But I do not want Life without you

連想妳的痛我都收集
lian xiang ni de tong wo dou shou ji
I collect even the pain of missing you

我沒有辦法離開妳
wo mei you ban fa li kai ni
There is no way that I can leave you

粉身碎骨不可惜
fen shen cui gu bu ke xi
I won’t regret it even at the cost of my life

只求神成全比妳多活一天
zhi qiu shen cheng quan yu ni duo huo yi tian
Only wish that the Heavens will grant me to live a day longer than you

妳一個人我不放心
ni yi ge ren wo bu fang xin
I worry that you are all alone

我沒有辦法離開妳
wo mei you ban fa li kai ni
There is no way that I can leave you

忍不住對妳貪心
ren bu zhu dui ni tan xin
Can’t bear but be greedy with you

感激命運里畢竟有妳
gan ji ming yun bi jing you ni
So grateful to Destiny for having you at long last

如果是夢讓我遠不要醒
ru guo shi meng yong yuan bu yao xing
If this is a dream, let me not awaken

我沒有辦法離開妳
wo mei you ban fa li kai ni
There is no way that I can leave you

F4 JOINTLY FILMS "WISH YOU WERE HERE" MV

United Daily News
December 15, 2007

http://udn.com/NEWS/MEDIA/4139473-1756058.jpg

F4 is secretly filming their new MV, Wu Jian Hao, Zhu Xiao Tian, Zhou Yu Min the three of them are ready to go in, Yan Cheng Xu elder brother.

At the end of the year, popular idol group F4, will be releasing their new album “Wish You Were Here.” Yesterday the group filmed their new MV, for the group’s lively song, Wu Jian Hao has colored his hair blonde, when he saw the media taking his picture, he laughed heartily and with both hands made a YA gesture. Yan Cheng Xu was late to arrive, very MAN as he was still busily applying some make up.

Each of the F4 members has already filmed their parts of the program. Yesterday’s filming of the MV proved to be very difficult in bringing the four of them together. The media had a hard time getting their secret itinerary, a number of media groups were already outside the door. The filming of the MV schedule said 12:30, but because additional sceneries were added it started at a later time. Although ZaiZai had colds he came very prepared, he arrived at 12:40 on the set wearing a cap and a coffee colored coat, he was very worried that he might spread out his cold to the others, so he wore a surgical mask.

F3 manager, Zhi Xiang Li explained that because Zai Zai came from Hong Kong the other day for the promotions of “Butterly” a staff member passed the cold virus to him and then he still had to continue filming the drama “Wish You Were Here,” he is slowly recovering.

Wu Jian Hao was relaxed and just wore shorts, and arrived sporting blonde hair and it seems his mood was very good, he repeatedly made the YA hand gesture in front of the cameras. Although Zhu Xiao Tian came from Mainland China for the promotion of his drama where there was a misunderstanding with some netizens he was very enthusiastic, and was playing with a cat, obviously his mood wasn’t influenced by the past events.

Dressed in blue and white striped T, Yan Cheng Xu, carried an elderly brother demeanor. Compared to ZaiZai he came in an hour late, using the camera lense we saw his complexion, he applied make up already before coming to the location, his appearance is very amusing.

On location the props, piano arrived, let F4’s talent and skill be judged, but the record company still has the MV content kept under secret.

Mary J Blige Be Without You Lyrics
I wanna be with you, gotta be with you, need to be with you
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
I wanna be with you, gotta to be with you, need to be with you
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Oooo (oh, oh, oh, oh) oooo

Chemistry was crazy from the get-go
Neither one of us knew why
We didn't build nothing overnight
'cause a luv like this takes some time
People swore it off as a phase
Said we can't see that
Now from top to bottom
They see that we did that (yes)
It's so true that (yes)
We've been through it (yes)
We got bull sh** (yes)
See baby we been...

Too strong for too long (and I can't be without you baby)
And I'll be waiting up until you get home ('cause I can't sleep without you baby)
Anybody who's ever loved, ya know just what I feel
Too hard to fake it, nothing can replace it
Call the radio if you just can't be without your baby

I got a question for ya
See I already know the answer
But still I wanna ask you
Would you lie? (no)
Make me cry? (no)
Do somethin' behind my back and then try to cover it up?
Well, neither would I, baby
My love is only your love (yes)
I'll be faithful (yes)
I'm for real (yes)
And with us you'll always know the deal
We've been...



Too strong for too long (and I can't be without you baby)
And I'll be waiting up until you get home ('cause I can't sleep without you baby)
Anybody who's ever loved, ya know just what I feel
Too hard to fake it, nothing can replace it
Call the radio if you just can't be without your baby

See this is real talk
I'm always stay (no matter what)
Good or bad (thick and thin)
Right or wrong (all day everyday)
Now if you're down on love or don't believe
This ain't for you (no, this ain't for you)
And if you got it deep in your heart
And deep down you know that it's true (come on, come on, come on)
Well, let me see you put your hands up (hands up)
Fellas tell your lady she's the one (fellas tell your lady she's the one, oh)
Put your hands up (hands up)
Ladies let him know he's got your love
Look him right in his eyes and tell him
We've been...

Too strong for too long (and I can't be without you baby)
And I'll be waiting up until you get home ('cause I can't sleep without you baby)
Anybody who's ever loved, ya know just what I feel
Too hard to fake it, nothing can replace it
Call the radio if you just can't be without your baby

Heeeeeeeeeeeey Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh
Heeeeeeeeeeeey Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh

I wanna be with you, gotta be with you, need to be with you
I wanna be with you, gotta be with you, need to be with you
I wanna be with you, gotta be with you, need to be with you
I wanna be with you, gotta be with you, need to be with you
I wanna be with you, gotta be with you, need to be with you

--------------------------------------
I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that place.
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space

And when you're out there
Without care,
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much

Does that make me crazy?
Does that make me crazy?
Does that make me crazy?
Possibly [radio version]
Probably [album version]

And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice, that's my only advice

Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you, who do you think you are,
Ha ha ha bless your soul
You really think you're in control

Well, I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me

My heroes had the heart to lose their lives out on a limb
And all I remember is thinking, I want to be like them
Ever since I was little, ever since I was little it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come
And I can die when I'm done

Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably

Uh, uh

Jerry Yan No Complaints Even After 5 Hours of Wire Stunt

Jerry Yan No Complaints Even After 5 Hours of Wire Stunt
Reporter: Zhu Pei Jun/ reporting from Taipei
13 December 2007

Translated by kym@nbbbs.com


[Basketball Fire] a collaboration of China TV and Gala TV has started filming for four days. Jerry Yan, Show Luo and Chun Wu have been performing wire stunts every day. To ensure their safety, each is insured for NT$10 million. Director Lin He Long personally demonstrated the stunts before the actual filming. But one personnel joked on the side, ‘Our Director is so thin, it takes more to pull up the actors than him.’

To capture the best shots for a dunk*, Jerry Yan, Show Luo and Chun Wu had special training in wire stunts before filming started.

After these few days of shooting, the personnel frankly commented, ‘This is not a Kung Fu serial where one poses for a bit in mid-air and then descends. The actors have to twist their bodies every which way to meet with the Director’s camera angles. Each shot can take up to an hour at times.’

Jerry Yan is the first to try the stunt. He said that he was not used to it initially but gradually could grasp the feel of it. In fact, he is starting to enjoy the sensation of flying. The safety measures are excellent and there are professionals at bay so he feels very reassured.

Since 11 am yesterday, he was hooked on the harness all day long. Even at 4 in the afternoon, the filming still continued. ‘He must really be having a hard time with the blazing noon sun, yet not a word of complaint from him.’ one personnel said.

Chu Wu The King of Big Eaters Still Thin After Double Portions

Due to exhaustive continuous filming, Chun Wu is still thin after taking 2 box meals. His agent laughs, ‘I have already stopped forbidding him to eat.’

Xiao Zhu Love Stunts Wants to Dance With Harness On

Previously at his concert, Xiao Zhu did appeared from the air. He said regarding these few days of wire stunts, ‘It’s nothing compared to the Period Dramas. Actually the wire stunts are fun. I am considering using some of these wire stunts for my stage performance.’

With 3 Super Idols in the show, no matter where the location is or how tight is the security, it still attracts many onlookers from the public.

A side-splitting moment was when an old lady from a neighbouring apartment whipped out a professional grade camera and turned ‘trigger happy’*. Top management at Gala TV were so taken aback that they knocked on her door to implore her to stop shooting.

* dunk ~ make a shot into the hoop
* trigger happy ~ keeps taking photos

12/28 Release of F4 new album in Taiwan

After 5 years of waiting, F4's 3rd album is confirmed to be released in Taiwan on 28 Dec 2007

There will be a grand album release press conference on that day.

Although don't understand the reason why the record company wants rush & release the album by end of this year.

Being part of their management company, album release is decided by the record company, we could only provide the artistes available schedule for promotion.

But looking at the limited timeframe, album preorder seems not possible anymore.

These few days, heard that F4 fanclubs have initiated preorder activities, overcoming various difficulties and doing their best even though the price of the cd is yet to be released.
Purpose is that: many other boybands will also be releasing albums in December, and they do have pre-orders.
Inevitably, there will be comparisons.
Fans are using their own strength, hoping that F4's result will remain outstanding.

Use yr true heart and love to prove to the media about F4's popularity and position.

Looking at everyone's effort, very moved indeed.

After many discussions with the record company, the following
promotional events are confirmed


28 Dec 2008 Album release press conference

19 Jan 2008 Taiwan outdoor concert
20 Jan 2008 Album autograph session in Taiwan

Everyone, add oil~

Show Luo (Xiao Zhu), Jerry Yan & Wu Zun starring in GTV's "Hot Shot" [Patriarchal], is quickly becoming "3P Broke Back Shot", the day before the 3's first scene together, Xiao Zhu first had to fly over Wu Zun then over to Jerry's car "shake the car", because Xiao Zhu's strength was too strong, he actually dented a hole.

The 3's fans have been supporting, but personally the 3 has no gun powder. Xiao Zhu and Wu Zun were going through their scenes under the huge sun, they were both soaked with sweat all over, and even took off the shirts, comparing who had more sweat; Jerry and Xiao Zhu during breaks shared taro chips, Jerry still didn't leave even after his scenes were done, staying behind to watch Xiao Zhu act.

Xiao Zhu's scenes in "Hot Shot" is really heavy, the first shot he was arranged to chase back what his grandmother gave him "Golden Basket Ball", not caring for himself jumping from buses, zig zagging through busy traffic, displaying personal bouncing abilities. Seeing Wu Zun handsomely riding in a motorcyle, Jerry driving in air conditioning, his sour heart says: "This scene is really big, but why are both of them so relaxing!"

After Wu Zun's agent, it is Show Luo agent's turn to release news. Today, a news article on Lian He Bao reported that Show once wanted to quit after the media ignored the fact that he is also Hot Shot's main lead, the same as Yan Cheng Xu. It was also reported how busy he is.

Obviously this news article was released by GTV. It was reported that the overseas copyright of Hot Shot has been sold for NT$67.9 millions but the production fee is estimated to be NT80 millions, much more than the previous budget of NT$60 millions. Then it was reported how great GTV is that it decides to continue the project, as its goal is to promote Chinese dramas to overseas markets and TW's tourism. In the last paragraph, it was reported that the amount of NT67.9 millions has not included the profits from commercials or official merchandise. I think it has not included the profits from the release of official DVD/cd/vcd neither, not mentioning the sales of overseas copyright is not complete.

Well, with Yan Cheng Xu alone, TH's copyright was sold for over NT100 millions around the world, with US20,000 per episode in Japan. Now, HS's copyright was sold for US30,000 per episode in Japan because of Jerry, but the total copyright sales amount is smaller? Either this is misleading or GTV should fire the one who did the mathematics.

kkla: As this news article was mainly released by Comic on Wu Zun, so only Jerry's part was extracted.

--------------------------

Although Wu Zun was listed as No. 3 in the quantity of his parts in Hot Shot, days ago, he tried to regain his 'face' and attempted to invade Yan Cheng Xu's market in Japan by leading Fareinheit's promotion there.

For the 2 recent years, Yan Cheng Xu's market in Japan has been well developed that he has long been in the No. 1 seat among all the TW male artistes who want to open the Japanese market...

Not long ago, in addition to TH's promotion and broadcast in Japan creating a momentum, he has the selling power of US$30,000 per episode in Japan, Yan Cheng Xu has become A cast among all the artistes who have developed in the Japanese market.

...Being A cast, Yan Cheng Xu is not easy to defeat. Besides having great improvement in his Japanese, numerous movie and idol drama projects have 'waved their hands' at him. Jerry also plans to have concert in Japan in the 2nd half of next year, in order to maintain his 'Yi Ge' status.

Nov. 28, 2007 - TW Apple Daily

kkla: Yesterday, Jerry just updated his blog with pictures of his apartment in Tokyo. Today, TW Apple Daily put the whole story on the front page of entertainment news already.

Yan Cheng Xu's secret location in Tokyo for 3 months has been exposed. Yesterday, his offiicial blog displayed pictures of this '6 Ping' (kkla: about 20 sq. m.) small home with his 'beloved transportation'. Heard that he is 'Yi Ge' in saving money, and he relied on food and drink in the convenient stores in private. His agent, Zhang Mao Liang, indicates, "He is not stingy. He paid for the travel expenses for co-workers' birthdays. He is pretty generous"

The apartment's rent was about NT30,000 per week, and it was paid by the Japanese agency.

In his blog, he wrote, "A while ago, under the agency's arrangement, I went to Tokyo taking some lessions and watching some drama performance. It had been 3 very fulfilling months." In the past, he was a dummie in computer. In order to lower the phone payment, he has great improvement in his computer knowledge, and he started to use Skype for communicating with family and friends in TW. He has also met some local friends in his language class. He adjusted pretty well.

Zhang Mao Liang indicates, "This apartment was found by the agency, about medium price. Buying a bike as he wanted to exercise" As Yan Cheng Xu has popularity in Japan, he is easily recognized when going out for meal. Therefore, due to convenience, he almost relied on food/drink in the convenient stores when needed.

Yan Cheng Xu's thrifty is well known. For some time, he travelled by motorcycle. Even he lived in Japan for a short period of time, he didn't shown any superstar's ostentation. Fans even found him wearing old shoes a lot. His agent stated, "He doesn't have high requirement in material prosperity. He likes to wear his preferred clothes repeatedly, but he is very generous in work related investment." His friend revealed after returning to ordinary life in Japan, he has realized from experiences that he needs to treasure what he is having now.

Jerry's apartment in Tokyo
rent: NT30,000 per week
food: Mainly sandwiches and lunch boxes from convenient stores
Clothing: Jeans and tees. Wore cap when going out to hide his face
Living: 6 Ping
Transportation: Bike, tram, and bus sometimes
source of information: Dramadream

Yan Cheng Xu And Wu Zun Have Faces, The Copyright Was All Sold Out

Lian He Bao - By Yang Qi Feng
Yan Cheng Xu And Wu Zun Have Faces, The Copyright Was All Sold Out


The fight between the two "Yi Ge"(No. 1 guy) has extended from TW to overseas. Hot Shot's overseas broadcast copyright in different locations/countries has been sold. Because of Yan Cheng Xu, the broadcast copyright in Japan has been sold for NT1 million per episode, and Wu Zun is even better, as HK, Korea, and Southeast Asia countires all specified that he is the one they want. Therefore, it is for sure that Hot Shot will make profits, instead of losing money.

Hot Shot which casts Yan Cheng Xu, Wu Zun, and Xiao Zhu has just started filming. With this cast, the overseas broadcast copyright has been sold wonderfully. GTV's General Manager, Lin Bai Chuan, confirmed yesterday that Hot Shot's NT60 million production fee has been covered by the selling of its overseas broadcast copyright. It all relies on the 2 'spade A cards', Yan Cheng Xu and Wu Zun.

According to information, both Yan Cheng Xu and Wu have high popularity in different areas overseas. Because of Yan Cheng Xu's high popularity in Japan, Japanese company initiated the copyright fee of US$30,000 (around NT$1 million. kkla: Please note that The Hospital's copyright was sold in Japan with around US$20,000 per episode, which was record high among TW's dramas.) per episode. On the other hand, the copyright of Hot Shot in Southeast Asia areas, such as Korea, HK, etc..., was sold solely because of Wu Zun. Lin Bai Chuan said, "Korea is the most difficult place to sell tv dramas, but the ratings of Hana. Kimi. in Korea played by Wu Zun were not bad, and he was even included in the nomination of the Best Newcomer Award, so he has popularity in Korea. This time, Hot Shot's broadcast copyright in Korea was sold solely because of him."

Lin Bai Chuan indicates, at the beginning, when GTV wanted to develop the Korean market, it was a bloody war, as GTV reduced and offered the price of about US$2,000(about NT66,000) per episode to the Korean buyers, which was half of the original amount. Later, Hana. Kimi. was being sold for US$5000 (NT170,000) per episode. Now, relying on Wu Zun's popularity, Hot Shot's copyright in Korea was sold at the price of US$8,000 (NT260,000) per episode. It was 4x of the beginning. Yan Cheng Xu's popularity in Japan is very stable, but Wu Zun has invaded all his(Jerry's) southeast markets except Japan, and Wu has become TW's newest "Yi Ge"(No. 1 guy). General Manager of Xin Shi Xian (the company which manages HK ATV at this time), Qi Jia Ji, said, "Yan Cheng Xu hasn't had too many productions recently. He may film just 1 drama per year. However, Wu Zun is younger, and the price is reasonable. Therefore, drama buyers incline to work with Wu Zun instead."


------------------------------

-----------------------------------------------------------
kkla: How come I got the feeling that Jerry was belittled again after being used?

1. The Hospital's copyright has been sold for more than NT100 millions throughout the world, including Southeast Asia, Europe, US, and even Australia, except Korea. Why? May be because Korea is very protective of its own dramas, may be Koreans think that TH is too expensive, and/or may be because Koreans planned to film its own version of White Tower at that time. Regardless, it is for sure not because of Yan Cheng Xu's selling power.

2. If I remember right, a while ago, it was reported after Jerry indicates his desire to quit BOF, investment from Mainland China and other locations was withdrawn, and the project was almost aborted. That's why the producer visited Jerry in Japan three times and persuaded to reconsider. If the credit of the good sales of Hot Shot's copyright in overseas except Japan should be given to Wu, then wait for so long until his parts need to be cut, as his schedule is delayed and it will be interfered with the filming of his next drama? If Hot Shot's copyright can be sold with a higher price solely with Wu, who will even have fewer parts in the drama, why needs Yan Cheng Xu? If Yan Cheng Xu is needed by GTV and the production team for his market value, why reject his market value immediately after the copyright was sold?

3. NT1 million vs NT260,000 per episode. Like Mao Liang said, the quality of the drama and his acting are Jerry's most concerned. If the production team/Wu's agency, and GTV wants to promote new popular idols to overseas markets by matching others to Jerry's level. I think Jerry won't mind at all, as he clearly indicated in the past that he wanted more actors/actresses can be successful beyond the TW market. However, in order to promote others, is it necessary to totally deny Jerry's credits? If Jerry is underestimated/belittled, even Jerry and SJ are generous not to get into this kind of publicity-gaining fight, Jerry fans won't let it be.

The filming of GTV's Hot Shot has started. In the press conference, the eldest Yan Cheng Xu gave up the middle position to the 2nd eldest Luo Zhi Xiang when taking pictures, and it created a balanced image with 3 first-class idols.

The press conference of Hot Shot was finally held regardless of all the obstacles. Yan Cheng Xu, Luo, and Wu were finally on the same stage with their fans trying to show their greatest support in behind. Yan Cheng Xu's fans mostly came from Japan and Korea. Their faces look familiar as they just attended the Tourist Bureau gathering last month. Because of Hot Shot's press conference, they are not afraid of all the hardship and they came to TW again to support Yan Cheng Xu, even their hearts won't ache when spending the money on air tickets, hotels, those creative basketball-look-alike balloons, and flower baskets.

The press conference was held in NanKang Sports center. As it was a weekday yesterday, the venue, which can hold more than 1000 people, was filled with about 500 fans only. Among them, Yan Cheng Xu had the most number of fans, when Wu had the most number of flower baskets and Luo's fans had very high spirit.

On the stage, Yan Cheng Xu teased Wu for playing hard when girls were present, and Luo teased Wu for wanting to eat all the time. The filming has not started but they already have very good interaction.


------------------------------

China Times' report was similar to the above, except that "The grouping of Yan Cheng Xu, Xiao Zhu, and Wu Zun in Hot Shot was considered as the Super AAA cast. Yan Cheng Xu's fans are mostly from Japan and HK, with powerful presentation. Xiao Zhu's are with highest spirit and the most screaming. Wu's fans had shown their effort by wearing yellow sports tees/uniforms."

Nov. 22, 2007 - Lian He Bao


Hot Shot, which has been prepared for 3 years and its production fee will be NT60 million, had a press conference yesterday for announcing the start of its filming yesterday. With the 3 major idols on the same stage, it attracted about 500 fans to attend.

In the 35-minute press conference, it was clear that they interacted like they were not very familiar with each other, but competition among rivals was not seen.

Yan Cheng Xu has been taking lessons in Japan for 2 months. After pretending to be ugly in his fans gathering, he spontaneously told jokes in the press conference, which was very different from his usual having straight face. (kkla: Sighing! I can't remember when was the last time Jerry had a straight face in public) Although he was arranged to be the first on the listing and when giving speech, even standing in the middle when taking pictures, he independently gave out his middle position to Xiao Chu (Luo), and it clearly shows his intention of not wanting to fight for the "No 1" title.

Then it was reported that Jerry talked about his experences with Wu and how they first met. Then, it was also reported that all 3's idol is Michael Jordon, and Luo's encounter with him when he went to TW last time.

In order to fulfill the dream of having the dreamteam with Yan Cheng Xu, Luo Zhi Xiang, and Wu Zun, the script of Hot Shot has been revised for over 10 times, and even the original name 'Basketfireball' was just changed to 'Hot Shot' by the producer, Feng Jia Rui, in the morning. Before the press conference, GTV's administers were so nervous that he kept running to the restroom. The production team is under a lot of pressure, as the three big idols have only limited time for the filming that the filming will focus on Yan and Wu in December, and Luo in January. The real challenge has just started.


------------------------------


Another article by Lian He Bao also reported after having the 3 big idols in the dreamteam, many manufacturers initated sponsorship in the drama, and the amount has exceeded NT10 millions. For instance, the sports goods and equipment will be sponsored by Adidas, drink by Hey Song, cellphone by LG, etc...

However, the quality of the drama is still considered to be the No. 1 priority by the producer, Feng Jia Riu, and he won't compromise just because the sponsored products are available.

The female lead of Hot Shot has yet to be determined. In the drama, Jiang Yi will play a coach.

According to the reporter, Yi Wei Chi, with the talk of whether Yan Cheng Xu or Luo is "Yi Ge" (meaning like No. 1 guy) has been around for days, in the press conference, GTV listed out Yan Cheng Xu first, then Luo, and Wu on invitation cards. GTV explained that this arrangement is based on the time they have participated in dramas. With all the obstacles, it was not easy for GTV to group all 3 "Yi Ge"s together, and GTV didn't clearly indicate who is the real "Yi Ge".

Regarding who would speak first in the press conference, it would be the director. After that, the director would decide who to follow.

As the press conference was open for fans to attend, all three artistes' fans have started their master-supporting projects. Not just the fans in TW need to skip work/school, fans from overseas will come to TW from different locations, such as HK, Japan, etc...

Although Wu will have fewer parts in Hot Shot, his fans have planned to show his popularity in public.

Veteran actor Chang Kuo-chu went from being a winner to a loser in one fell swoop.
PHOTO: COURTESY OF CTV
The most embarrassing moment in the Golden Bell Awards' (金鐘獎) 42-year history came to light on Monday when the jury panel confessed that a top honor, the Best Supporting Actor accolade, was awarded to the wrong person at the ceremony on Saturday. The real winner was Hong Kong-based Chang Chia-nien (張嘉年), also known as Tai Pao (太保), not veteran actor Chang Kuo-chu (張國柱).

Jury committee convener Wang Chang-an (王長安) explained that the two nominees' similar-sounding names confused the awards ceremony presenter, which is the same as saying, "Oops, we handed the envelope to the wrong person."

What showbiz pundits are wondering is how badly the jury members squirmed on the night of the awards ceremony, which was televised live.

An anonymous source, quoted in the Chinese-language press, claims jury members were called back for an emergency meeting during the ceremony. Official statements indicate the jury assembled on Sunday to formulate a damage-control policy and came up with a solution that was supposed to make everyone happy: the award goes to both Changs.

Gracefully accepting the trophy that didn't actually belong to him, Chang Kuo-chu couldn't help but voice his discontent by saying to the local press: "Rather than a celebration party, I'll just treat everyone to a bowl of Udon noodles [Udon is written as 烏龍 in Chinese, a term that means 'daft mistake']."

“Basketball of Fire” Begins Filming, “Fans Support” Competition

“Basketball of Fire” Begins Filming, “Fans Support” Competition

11/21/2007

The country’s 3 biggest male idols, Jerry Yan, Show Luo, and Wu Zun are filming a new drama “Basketball of Fire.” Today, November 21st, they held an open press conference, which not only attracted tons of fans, but ever since the preparation of filming, there has been a constant “battle” of pay, rank, and role. It was thought that during the press conference, they’d officially talk about this “battle,” but it turned out that none of the three actors had any sort of resentment towards each other, “no smell of gun powder.” Turns out that Jerry and Wu Zun had known each other before, and had been good friends with Show, so the three just expressed that the ranking “battle” is all works of the media, and that they hope everyone will put their focus on the drama performances. At the press conference, they officially announced the commencement of the filming of “Basketball of Fire.”

This is unlike any other drama, “Basketball of Fire” has very high production cost. They plan to film 90 minute episodes, 13 in total, $60 Million TWD. They’re planning to release this drama in the summer of 2008 in complement with the Olympics fever.

Fan Report From Yanchengxu.net

According to LuWell's friend, there were quite a number of big banners by Jerry fans.

According to tttt1975 and JJ of www.yanchengxu.net, Jerry's look was the most handsome. He wore his tie just like at the APFF show, with new boots, shorter hair, and wonderful mood.

The director came out first, and then Jerry, Luo, and Wu. Due to too much echo at the site, the sound couldn't be heard clearly. Jerry mentioned something like playing better when girls are around. Also, when asked whether he would be scared when the director scolded people, he answered that he had got used to it.

When taking group picture with the whole crew and cast, Jerry stood in the middle. When taking pictures with Luo and Wu, Jerry let Luo stand in the middle, and Luo was a little bit shy about it.

Wu Chun vs Jerry Yan



Wu Chun vs Jerry Yan
Both Wu Chun and Jerry Yan are from Taiwanese boy bands. Wu Chun is Fahrenheit member while Jerry Yan is a member of the most popular boy band ever in Taiwan-JVKV (formerly F4). Both Wu Chun and Jerry Yan are very popular in Asia. Some consider them as the most popular members among their groups. The immensely popular Taiwanese drama ‘Meteor Garden’ has brought Jerry Yan a shot into ultimate stardom while Wu Chun’s manga-based drama ‘Hanazakarino Kimitachihe’ sweeps over Asia. Both of them are great models, singers, and actors. Who do you think is hotter? And who is the best Taiwanese idol actor?

Wu Zun willing to be 3rd, Show and Jerry fight for 1st, Wednesday November 14, 2007 Taiwan

Having a strong cast will make people envious. The new GTV drama series Basketball Fire got Jerry Yan, Show Luo and Wu Zun together to make up a strong cast, but before the 3 of them get to compete their basketball skills, they are already competing for the no.1 actor position.
Wu Zun decided to take up no.3 position on his own accord while neither of the two experienced actors Jerry and Show is willing to be no.2.

two months ago, Basketball fire had a difficult time persuading Jerry to act in this series. Just when Jerry had agreed, Show became undecided and again GTV's big shots had to persuade Show to act in this show. In addition to the earlier confirmed Wu Zun, they finally managed to get the three actors to work together for this series, yet now they are faced with ranking problems, as all three of them are very popular.

For next wednesday's press conference (21st Nov), the poster designer had a hard time deciding how to put the three of them on the poster. As Wu Zun will be acting in another series Er Bi Jian at the beginning of next year, his role in Basketball Fire will not be as major as Show and Jerry, hence he willingly took up the last rank. As for Show and Jerry, after looking at the script, both their artiste management companies feel that their roles are equally important and both have the qualities to be the no.1 actor in Basketball Fire.

GTV and both actors' management companies had a meeting this week and they had discussed about the ranking problems, but GTV is not willing to give any information. But they said they will make it such a way that everyone will be happy.

Show's manager had expressed yesterday that the ranking isn't important. What's most important is to be able to work with good actors and crew. Jerry's manager also expressed they had no comments regarding the ranking and that they will respect GTV's decision. As for GTV, they said they will design a poster which shows that all three actors have equal importance. As for other matters, they have yet to come up with a conclusion.

Info from Ciciny regarding 11.21 BOF press conference

GTV is allowing 400 fans to enter the venue. To JMs who are planning to attend, you have to go early and fall in line. Can bring props (banners, handsigns) but there's no guarantee these can be brought inside. Pls wear SJ shirt.

Translated News - On Basketball of fire

According to news, GTV tries to make all 3 male leads, but Jerry's talent fee is NT$480,000 per episode, when Luo's is NT$200,000, and Wu's is NT$120,000. However, Luo is GTV's artiste, and Wu will have fewer parts as he needs to leave earlier for another drama. Jerry's role will be a cool and gifted player, when Luo's is the funny one who has extraordinary jumping power, and Wu's is Jerry's rival.
