Taiwan pop singer Zhou Hui is preparing to make a comeback with the help of Jackie Chan.
Zhou Hui, who is best known for her 1999 hit single "Yue Ding (appointment)", is set to release her comeback album under the Seed Music label this June. The title track of the album, "One's Own Movie", will feature Jackie Chan. He also stars in the music video, reports sina.com.
In the video Jackie Chan plays a movie projectionist, who meets Zhou Hui at a cinema in Beijing during the 1980s. The music video was shot by Jackie Chan's film production team, Jackie Chan Stuntman Team.
Jackie Chan recalls that he first heard Zhou's "Yue Ding" in his bathroom.
"I was taking a bath at my home in Hong Kong, and suddenly I heard a beautiful female voice from the TV. I wrapped myself in a towel and rushed out, only to catch the end of the music video."
"The following week, I turned the television on whenever I was at home, and finally saw it again," he said, "then I went to a CD shop and bought twenty copies to give to my friends. Later I bought another forty, sixty copies altogether!"
Chan says the single has a special meaning for him.
"I started shooting movies when I was six years old. For others, filming starts and ends, but for me, filming ends on one movie but starts on another, with hardly any breaks."
