Jay Chou 周杰倫 is 'The Treasure Hunter'

http://www.scmp.com/video

Jay Chou Chieh-lun 周杰倫 is a real-life treasure hunter. In recent years, the Mando-pop king has sought out any opportunity to work in both the music and film industry. His latest project is Kevin Chu Yen-ping's 'The Treasure Hunter' 刺陵 that depicts Chou as a chivalrous and adventurous young man, whose mission is to guard the hidden riches and return them to their owner.

Although the 30-year-old claims that his focused hasn't switched entirely from music, this film is currently being shown alongside Yuen Woo-ping's 'True Legend' and Chous debut Hollywood project (playing Bruce Lees former role as Kato) in Michel Gondry's 'Green Hornet'.

In this video, see highlights of the SCMP's interview with the Taiwanese singer-actor and excerpts from the film.

In Mandarin, with English subtitles.

i love how he gives all his money to his mother, and asks for it bak like allowance. haha. Jay chou's mother must be one lucky lady. Jay named an entire album after her. He made 2 songs for her. wow. u just dont see tat kind of respect from a son to a mother these days u kno. especially coming from a guy with as much influence as jay does.

Filial Piety works, but only if the family nucleus is solid in respect and love. There are families in business for generations, but when they gather in front of the lawyers and discover shares are unequal, the family branches snap in resentment to the patriarch's/matriarch's final decision of the estate. Jay Chou is fortunate and he's humble. Sadly, there are very abusive parents and some child/children prefer to distance themselves.
