I feel .....you all have send a very very very special present. I'm very happy, I want to express my thanks to everyone, for doing this good deed on my behalf. Thanks to everyone. How's everyone? Have you all seen my TV serial?
Gp : Yes, yes
Zhou : Pink Love Melody, are you all satisfied with it?
Fay : Not very pleased as it's not your voice.
Zhou : Right! At the time they were looking for me I was out of town. Since the producer was in a hurry they got someone else to dub it. So I ..... I also dare not see it! You all have seen Pink Love Melody certain parts I look a bit fat.
Gp : Yes!
Zhou : It's because it's winter and very cold. Have to put on more clothings as winter can be quite cold.Also the wig was not very comfortable, a bit small, thus the face looks big, a bit fat. Actually I am not that fat.
Elyn : Has Right on target been finished?
Zhou : Finish filming. Probably will be telecast in Oct
Gp : Good! Good
Zhou : Not bad. Right on Target is not bad!
Elyn : Actually we look forward to seeing you acting in modern day drama. When will you be starting on "Legend of Condor Heroes"?
Zhou : Condor will probably be in September, end September. Before this I will be acting in another film, probably a movie
Gp : Really?
Zhou : Right If it's a movie I will tell all of you what movie, is that alright?
Gp : Good
Zhou : I would like to visit Singapore. I still have a air ticket to Singapore which have not been used
Gp : Can it be used?
Zhou : Now I don't know. Possibly cannot be used
Gp : Possibly overdue?
Zhou : Right! Should be overdue. I still have a visa to Singapore that has not been used. I think it's now easier to visit Singapore. I am hoping to be able to visit at the end of the year or next spring festival. Because Condor will definitely be telecast in Singapore. I think I will be there for the promotion.
Gp : Good
Zhou : I 'll meet up with everyone
Elyn : In September when you start filming Condor, how long will it take?
Zhou : Will film till next year January. Next year I'll be acting in Aunty Chungyao two serials.
Elyn : Which one will start first?
Zhou : Don't know yet but there'll be two dramas
Elyn : We're all waiting
Zhou : I will work hard, don't worry
Priscilla : When will you cut an album? I am waiting!
Zhou : HaHa! I know. My present company is also into music! Thus will probably think of cutting an album later
Lena : Hurry up! Hurry up!
Zhou : I also hope so, work hard
Fay : Waiting to listen to your singing
Zhou : Alright. No problem! My songs hopefully will not frighten you all.?
Fay : Your voice is nice to listen to
Zhou : Then alright I will work hard
Elyn : How're spending your birthday today?
Zhou : Last night I have already received flowers, received some greetings from friends. I did not organise a birthday party. I want to push it to the 12th. Because I'm waiting for a few of my friends coming back from abroad and also today the office is closed. Not too good to get everybody back. Thus I am pushing it to the 12th, by then my friends will all be back from abroad. Also waiting for my little sister to come and spend my birthday with me
Gp : Your girlfriend?
Zhou :Why?
Elyn : They are asking is that your girlfriend?
Zhou : No, my sister
Gp : (laughter)
Zhou : Did you all watch Olympics? You all know China's gymnastic champion, Liu Xuan? You all know she is the champion for balance beam? Do you all know? that's my sister. She will be with me for my birthday. Not my girlfriend. Does that ease your mind?
Elyn : How can that ease our mind? We're hoping that you have a girlfriend!
Zhou : I'm looking!
Elyn : What's you wish on your birthday?
Zhou : Alot of birthday wishes but they say cannot say it out. It will not come true if it's spoken thus I will not say it out.
Elyn : Have you received all the flowers and birthday cakes from all the fan clubs?
Zhou : I have received the birthday cakes and flowers. Thank you very much. My company had already given them to me. I hope we will have the opportunity to meet. I am thinking if there's an opportunity next year I would like to stage a drama as I like stage performances. Let's have a performance tour from HongKong, Taiwan and Singapore..What do you think?
Gp : Good
Zhou : I think Singapore friends would like to watch stage performances. I would want to stage a small scale drama. Hopefully can meet all of you and you all can see me perform. Is that alright? Elyn : You told us just now you want to tell us about your new movie
Zhou : ou! I am reading the script now. Have not confirm yet. I will put it up on the net once it's confirm. So when you visit the net you can see it..
Elyn : Is it a Hongkong production?
Zhou : No it not Hongkong production, it's mainland production.But now even if it's mainland movie everyone can see it
Elyn : You send it over personally?
Zhou : I send it personally? If you all wait for me, I will send it personally.
Fay : Then we'll have to wait very long for it?
Zhou : No! You see our site was set up on 1st Aug 1998, our Xin You Qian Qian Jie website is already 3 years old. 3 years have already passed. Thus it's very fast. I actually feel time pass very fast. I think it will not be long before we meet.
Fay :.Would not have to wait till 2008?
Zhou : No. Then I hope to see everyone in 2008. That's not bad but I hope we can see you all more often that would be better.
Elyn : The last time on the net you talk about us visiting you on the set.
Zhou : It's this way. Let me explain to everyone. Let's take for example when I start acting in the movie, when the location for filming is confirmed,I will announce it on the net as to where I will be. If you're free, or let's say you're in Beijing, or on tour, then you can organise a trip together, Taiwan, HongKong, Singapore. You all can get to know each other, organise and meet at one place. During your tour, drop by to see me. I will be very happy. Let's say I am acting in Condor, I am in Shantong, I am not too sure. Once it's confirmed I will announce it. If you all are willing to come over, to see the scenery and to see me, I will be very happy.
Elyn : I think we prefer to see you rather than the scenery.
Zhou : I also hope so but I will feel very bad. I hope you can tour around that would be better.
Fay : I also hope that you can be our tour guide!
Zhou : Then the production group will not agree. It will interrupt the filming. It would be better for you all to come by quietly and chitchat with me. Any more problem? I hope you all can visit the website more often.
Gp : Yes we do. You have not visited our site
Zhou : We could not get in... we've tried from Xin You Qian Qian Jie friendship site to get into Singapore and Hongkong site, we could not get in.
Elyn : Have you seen the direct site access code I have posted ? Zhou : I have seen it, the very very long one right?
Elyn : Right right the long long one
Zhou : You have posted it twice right?
Elyn : There are two, anyone will allow you access
Zhou : Right right. I've seen that. Then I think.....although that was very long I have copied it down.
Gp : ow! so long and you copied it down?
Zhou : I have copied it so that I can try to see whether I can access it. If I can access it I will leave a message behind, so you all can read it. Is that alright?
Zhou : You all have not sang a birthday song for me!
Pris : We will sing in English for you to listen
Zhou : That will do Gp : (everyone sing together)
Gp : Happy birthday. All your heart's desires will be fulfilled
Zhou : Thank you everyone
Elyn : Wish you good health
Zhou : Let's wish we will meet earlier
Gp : Alright
Zhou : Then support me. Thank you everyone
Elyn : Whether our wish will come true depends on you.
Zhou : Why?
Elyn : If you don't come how can we meet you?
Zhou : Alright let's all work hard is that alright?
Elyn : When you leave for outside location, will you be bringing your laptop?
Zhou : I think I will. I possbly will bring
Elyn : That's right, then you can come on the net more often and leave words for us.
Zhou : Alright no problem. Wish everyone happiness. Bye Take care. Bye Bye.
