Source: Mingpao Translation: llwy12 Jacky’s new album makes money With sales for Jacky Cheung’s new album <<Private Corner>> reaching 200,000 copies in Asia alone, a celebration gathering was held yesterday. At the gathering, Jacky also debuted his new MV for the song <<Double Trouble>>, which he invested HKD$500,000 of his own money to make. The MV was directed by Xia Yong Kang and features mainland China model Du Juan. Given the extremely high production costs of Jacky’s new album and the disadvantage of not having TVB as a promotional stage, the fact that the album is able to avoid loss and actually make money is amazing. To this, Jacky commented: “I still hope that the royalties issue will be resolved soon so that the MV for <<Double Trouble>> can air on TVB.” Jacky expressed that initially, the production costs for the <<Double Trouble>> MV was estimated at HKD$200,000 to HKD$300,000, however after filming was completed, the costs ended up being way higher. Now he understands the difficulty record companies go through when it comes to making MVs; he says: “Xia Yong Kang is a million dollar director now, so I am very grateful that he and Du Juan were willing to help out and do the MV free of charge.” ----- ** Jacky also reveals that Ronad had notified him of his marriage years ago -- he did not ask any questions (who he married or where) -- he simply congratulated his friend on his marriage. **
Honestly, i'm a little disappointed wit his new album. Dont get me wrong, it's not his singing. His voice sounded godly. But it's the jazz music. I kno it's a new thing which everyone wanna do sometimes. But still, i'm not really a big fan of it. Hope he'll go back to canto-pop soon.
honestly didnt even expect him to sell much, nowadays only idols sell because of their image not singing
I agree, jazz style doesn't work for me. he should go back to his classics ________ FORD SIGMA ENGINE
