$ETH A video revealed Jay Chou’s stance.
Like Cai Kangyong, Jay Chou didn’t say it outright, but he reposted a video.
Yesterday, Jay Chou and Hannah Quinlivan watched the Rolex Shanghai Masters in Shanghai. The host introduced him as a “famous Chinese singer.”
Jay Chou then reposted the video on an overseas social media platform, captioning it: “Famous Chinese singer.”
He didn’t say a single word from beginning to end, yet many people understood his position.
And this wasn’t the only time. Ever since his debut, whenever he has mentioned Taiwan, he has called it “Taiwan Province.”
He never makes a point of chanting slogans. To him, being Chinese is as natural as eating three meals a day—it’s not something he needs to put on display, and he has never been ambiguous about where he stands.
Remember, at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, a group of singers performed “Beijing Welcomes You,” while Jay Chou wrote a song of his own, “Thousands of Miles of Mountains and Rivers.”
One line goes:
“My resolve is firm; I face north.”
His position was already clear back then.
