Director Chou wore white sports clothing and trainers, he looked relaxed under the protection of his bodyguards, even the 22 seconds passed by in a flash, there were still fans going crazy, some who didn't get to see Director Chou collapsed on the floor crying, some were also pushed to the ground.

Jay Chou is 31 this year, it's been claimed he is the youngest Chinese artist to break 100 concerts, at the beginning of 2008, he held a concert in Japan's Budo Kan as the first artist from Taiwan, he said proudly: "To an artist, being able to hold a concert in the Hong Kong Coliseum or Budo Kan is a very big honour."

Jay Chou's concert tour periods are the longest, each concert lasts for 2 to 3 years, it stars at Taipei every time and moves onto the rest of the world. He said: "I try harder away from home." Each concert has more nights than the previous, his latest "The Era" concert has already reached 50 venues, each destination is continuing to add more nights; Director Chou once held 7 nights in at the Hong Kong Coliseum, he will be holding 8 nights soon, he will set a new record for holding the most nights at the Hong Kong Coliseum for a Taiwanese artist.

Yesterday night the tickets for the 100th concert went on sale, it attracted the support of 30,000 fans, Director Chou said: "100 is a very round number, originally I wanted to film the fans into an MV for this special milestone, but I've played with that before, so I might just sing a few more songs; after all when it gets announced at the concert, I think the fans offstage will be very high."
