==Awal Karir==
Ibu Chou awalnya bercita-cita Chou untuk menjadi seorang guru musik, sementara Chou relatif tidak mengerti apa yang harus dilakukan dengan hidupnya. Tanpa mengetahui nya, seorang temannya telah memasuki kedua nama mereka dalam pertunjukan bakat disebut Super New Talent Raja pada tahun 1998. Chou memainkan iringan piano untuk temannya, yang bernyanyi digambarkan sebagai "buruk". Meskipun mereka tidak menang, tuan rumah acara Jacky Wu-karakter berpengaruh dalam hiburan Taiwan bisnis terjadi melirik skor musik dan terkesan dengan kompleksitas. Wu kemudian bertanya siapa yang menulisnya, menemukan Chou dan mempekerjakannya sebagai komposer kontrak dan dipasangkan dia dengan penulis lirik pemula Vincent Fang. [1] untuk perusahaan maka rekornya Alfa Music. Chou kemudian menghabiskan sebagian besar waktunya di studio Wu musik memproduksi, pencampuran suara belajar, merekam dan menulis lagu. Meskipun ia terlatih dalam musik klasik, Chou menggabungkan gaya musik Cina dan Barat untuk menghasilkan lagu-lagu yang memadukan R & B, rock dan genre pop. Namun Wu mengatakan Chou bahwa ia akan membantu Chou untuk merilis album setelah ia menulis 100 lagu dan ia akan memilih sepuluh dari sana. Chou sudah memiliki gudang lagu ia menulis untuk orang lain tetapi telah ditolak, sehingga di antara mereka ia memilih 10 untuk debut album CD-nya Jay yang dirilis pada tahun 2000. Album ini didirikan reputasinya sebagai berbakat musik penyanyi-penulis lagu yang gaya adalah fusi R & B, rap, musik klasik, namun jelas Cina. Ketenarannya menyebar dengan cepat di daerah-daerah berbahasa Cina di seluruh Asia Tenggara. [2] [3] [4]
 
==Early careerKarir Musik ==
Chou's mother initially aspired Chou to become a music teacher, while Chou remained relatively clueless on what to do with his life. Without his knowing, a friend of his had entered both their names in a talent show called ''Super New Talent King'' in 1998. Chou played the piano accompaniment for his friend, whose singing was described as "lousy". Although they did not win, the show's host [[Jacky Wu]]—an influential character in Taiwan's entertainment business—happened to glance at the music score and was impressed with its complexity. Wu then asked who wrote it, discovered Chou and hired him as a contract composer and paired him with the novice lyricist [[Vincent Fang (lyricist)|Vincent Fang]].<ref name="Time" /> for his then record company Alfa Music. Chou then spent most of his time in Wu's studio learning music producing, sound mixing, recording and writing songs. Although he was trained in classical music, Chou combines [[Music of China|Chinese]] and Western music styles to produce songs that fuse [[Rhythm and blues|R&B]], rock and pop genres. <!-- His songs written for artists such as Jacky Wu, Power Station, Landy Wen and Coco Lee became widely popular but he is still relatively unknown. There were no plans to make him a singer because his mentor Wu thought he was too shy and not good-looking.{{Fact|date=June 2008}} -->However Wu told Chou that he will help Chou to release an album after he wrote 100 songs and he will pick ten from there. Chou already had an arsenal of songs he wrote for others but had been rejected, so among those he chose 10 for his debut CD album ''[[Jay (album)|Jay]]'' that was released in 2000. The album established his reputation as a musically gifted singer-songwriter whose style is a fusion of [[Rhythm and blues|R&B]], [[hip hop music|rap]], classical music, and yet distinctly Chinese. His fame spread quickly in Chinese-speaking regions throughout Southeast Asia.<ref name="jcbio">{{zh icon}} {{cite web| url = http://ent.sina.com.cn/s/2007-01-08/23381402205.html |title = King of the new generation 周杰伦:新声代之王| date = 8 January 2007 | accessdate = 2 June 2007 | publisher =sina.com.cn}}</ref><ref name="starsrising" /><ref name="revolutionary" />
 
== Music career2000-2002 ==
Jay Chou meluncurkan album debutnya "Jay" di bawah Alfa Music pada tahun 2000. Album ini dipromosikan besar-besaran oleh Jacky Wu dalam hiburan menunjukkan ia host. Jay juga muncul dalam beberapa acara sendiri. Dia sering memakai topi dan meninggalkan kepalanya menggantung rendah di hari-hari awal, yang memberinya citra yang unik dan piques keingintahuan pemirsa. Debut album dan Jay sendiri dipasarkan sebagai album penyanyi-komposer berbakat dengan lagu yang unik. Dengan kolaborasinya dengan Vincent Fang dan Vivian Hsu di album, juga membawa beberapa hits.
 
Setelah mempromosikan album debut tak lama, Jay pergi ke studio untuk 12 bulan ke depan untuk merekam dan memproduksi album berikutnya "Fantasy". Album ini dirilis pada bulan September 2001 menjadi hit besar dan dijual diperkirakan 2 juta kopi di Taiwan saja. Selain menjadi sukses komersial, album ini juga mengumpulkan Jay 5 penghargaan dari dinominasikan 10 di sangat didambakan 13 Golden Melody Awards pada tahun 2002. Ini didirikan Jay di industri musik. Hits seperti "簡單愛" (cinta yang sederhana) yang membawa keluar kesederhanaan cinta di masa muda dengan lagu yang sangat catchy, "愛在西元前" yang berbicara tentang cinta sebelum masehi memenangkan Chou penghargaan Komposer Terbaik, dan "開不了口" berbicara tentang seseorang meninggalkan pada misi ruang sementara ia tidak bisa menyatakan cinta kepada kekasih nya. Semua lagu-lagu ini adalah lagu-lagu tanda tangan Chou dan sedang dinyanyikan dalam konser bahkan sampai hari ini.
===2000 to 2002===
Jay Chou launched his debut album "Jay" under Alfa Music in 2000. The album was promoted heavily by Jacky Wu in the entertainment shows he hosted. Jay also appeared in some of the shows himself. He frequently wears a cap and leave his head hanging low in the early days, which gives him a unique image and piques the curiosity of viewers. The debut album and Jay himself was marketed as a talented singer-composer album with a unique tune. With his collaboration with Vincent Fang and Vivian Hsu in the album, it also brought about a few hits.
 
Musik Chou menjadi topik yang banyak dibahas karena berbeda dari arus utama musik Cina yang populer pada waktu itu. Ini menanamkan tema masa lalu kuno, kapal ruang futuristik, dan musiknya memanggil citra yang sangat jelas dan tajam untuk pendengarnya. Karakteristik bernyanyi juga dibesarkan bahwa dengan rap atau bernyanyi, orang sering tidak bisa menguraikan apa yang dia bernyanyi sampai mereka melihat lirik. Chou mengatakan ini adalah signature style-nya atau menanamkan bernyanyi dengan musik dalam lagu untuk "membuatnya berbaur" dengan baik bersama-sama. Kritik lihat bernyanyi sebagai "bergumam". Ini mengumpulkan banyak perhatian dan wartawan sering kuis Chou pada gaya bernyanyi. Alasan lain Chou datang dengan adalah bahwa ia ingin para pendengar untuk melihat lirik karena lirik yang ditulis oleh Vincent Fang sangat mendalam. Semua ini mendorong banyak orang untuk mulai mendengarkan musik Chou di dunia musik. Sampai saat ini dalam waktu, musiknya terutama dalam genre R & B. Album ini harus menoleh ke belakang, bagian paling penting dari karirnya yang melambungkan Jay ke bintang.
After promoting the debut album shortly, Jay went into the studio for next 12 months to record and produce the next album "Fantasy". This album released in September 2001 became a big hit and sold an estimated 2 million copies in Taiwan alone. Other than being a commercial success, the album also garnered Jay 5 awards out of being nominated 10 at the much-coveted 13th Golden Melody Awards in 2002. This established Jay in the music industry. Hits such as "簡單愛" (simple love) which brings out the simplicity of love in youth with a very catchy tune, "愛在西元前" which talks about love before B.C. won Chou the Best Composer award, and "開不了口" talks about a person leaving on a space mission while he didn't get to profess his love to his loved one. All these songs are Chou's signature songs and are being sung in concerts even till today.
 
Chou mengikuti formula yang bekerja untuk album ketiganya, dengan lagu-lagu yang memanggil citra, bekerja sama dengan penulis lirik Vincent Fang, "bergumam" bernyanyi dan terutama R & B lagu. Album ketiganya "Kedelapan Dimensi" masih sukses secara komersil. Dengan itu, ia memegang konser tur dunia "The One".
Chou's music became much-discussed topic because it is different from mainstream popular Chinese music at that time. It infuses themes of ancient past, futuristic space ship, and his music invokes very clear and vivid imagery to its listeners. A characteristic of his singing was also being brought up that with his rapping or singing, people often could not decipher what he is singing until they look at the lyrics. Chou says this is his signature style or infusing his singing with the music in the song to "make it blend" well together. Critics refer to his singing as "mumbling". This garnered a lot of attention and reporters often quiz Chou on his singing style. Another reason Chou came up with is that he wants the listeners to look at the lyrics because the lyrics written by Vincent Fang are very deep. All these prompted many to start listening to Chou's music in the music world. Up till this point in time, his music is mainly within the R&B genre. This album is to be looked back, the most significant part of his career which catapulted Jay into stardom.
 
EMI juga telah menandatangani tindakan kesalehan Malaysia bernama Rabbani, yang berharap label akan mendapatkan keuntungan dari upaya untuk meningkatkan lintas-promosi antara Indonesia dan Malaysia. BMG Prescott adalah bullish tentang potensi pan-wilayah Taiwan vokalis pria Jay Chou. "Dia sudah adalah salah satu seniman yang paling menarik dan sukses baru kami, dengan penjualan saat albumnya Jay Fantasy sekarang lebih dari 600.000 eksemplar terjual di seluruh Asia," kata Prescott. "Dia memiliki potensi untuk menjadi superstar mutlak di wilayah kami, dan mungkin di tempat lain. Saya juga berpikir [Taiwan wanita R & B vokalis] Landy Wen akan terus memperluas popularitasnya di seluruh wilayah pada tahun 2002." [1]
Chou followed the formula that works for his third album, with songs that invoke imagery, collaborating with lyricist Vincent Fang, "mumbling" singing and mainly R&B tunes. His third album "Eighth Dimensions" is still a commercial success. With it, he held the world concert tour "The One".
 
Jay Chou telah menjual 750.000 kopi album terbarunya pada tahun 2002, Delapan Dimensi, seluruh wilayah. Ada aktivitas Crossover juga lebih antara Malaysia dan Indonesia, serta terus meningkatkan aktivitas oleh tindakan Jepang di wilayah tersebut. [2]
EMI has also signed a Malaysian devotional act called Rabbani, which the label hopes will benefit from its efforts to boost cross-promotion between Indonesia and Malaysia. BMG's Prescott is bullish about the pan—region potential of Taiwanese male vocalist Jay Chou. "He is already one of our most exciting and successful new artists, with the current sales of his album Jay's Fantasy now over 600,000 copies sold across Asia," Prescott says. "He has the potential to be an absolute superstar in our region, and maybe elsewhere. I also think [Taiwanese female R&B vocalist] Landy Wen will continue to extend her popularity across the region in 2002."<ref>{{cite book|last1=McClure|first1=Steve|title=Asia’s Major Players Seek to Regain Stride in Year Ahead|date=Feb 9, 2002|publisher=Billboard- The International Newsweekly of Music, Video and Home Entertainment 114.6|pages=APQ1-2}}</ref>

Di 2003, Chou merilis album keempatnya 'Ye Hui Mei "bernama setelah ibunya sendiri. Setelah merilis album ini, ia menghadiri Golden Melody Awards untuk nominasi album sebelumnya nya. Album" Kedelapan Dimension "dinominasikan untuk 5 kategori tetapi tidak menang. Chou tidak mengambil ini terlalu ringan, karena ia menulis di album berikutnya lagu "外婆" bahwa dia benar-benar mengambil Golden Melody Awards terlalu serius. Ironisnya, album kemudian-saat ini "Ye Hui Mei" akan memenangkan Melody Emas "Best Album of the year" penghargaan pada tahun 2004.
 
"Ye Hui Mei" adalah baik sukses komersial dan musik. Fitur album lagu di Mafia dan obat pembesar "以父之名" yang pada sidang pertama itu sangat tidak lazim tetapi menampilkan menulis kreatif Jay dan kemampuan memproduksi. Album ini dapat dilihat sebagai tonggak kedua Jay karena mendapat reaksi yang sangat positif dari kritikus musik dan pendukung musiknya nya. Jay juga ingin membuktikan bahwa ia adalah seorang seniman serba, bukan hanya menulis R & B lagu, ia berkelana ke lebih lagu rock rasa seperti "晴天" yang merupakan salah satu lagu yang paling sering diputar tahun. Lagu ini diperoleh luas popularitas dan siswa SMA mulai belajar gitar untuk memainkan drift intro lagu itu. 
===2003 to 2004===
In 2003, Chou released his fourth album 'Ye Hui Mei" named after his own mother. After the release of this album, he attended the Golden Melody Awards for his previous album's nomination. The album "Eighth Dimension" was nominated for 5 categories but won none. Chou didn't take this too lightly, as he wrote on his next album the song "外婆" that he actually takes the Golden Melody Awards too seriously. Ironically, his then-current album "Ye Hui Mei" will win a Golden Melody "Best Album of the year" award in 2004.
 
Pada tahun 2004, album Qilixiang, atau Jasmine, dirilis oleh Sony Music, unggul di Taiwan, Hong Kong, dan Republik Rakyat Cina (RRC). Meskipun pembajakan besar di Taiwan-yang telah mengurangi industri rekaman untuk 5 sampai 10 persen dari masa kejayaan-sebagai penyanyi Taiwan yang, Jay menghasilkan sebuah album yang terjual rekor 300.000 eksemplar. Di Hong Kong, albumnya melampaui album lokal dengan penjualan 50.000 unit. Di Cina angka resmi mencapai 2,6 juta unit, angka yang menakjubkan bahwa tidak ada artis lain Cina telah mencapai. [1]
"Ye Hui Mei" was both a commercial and musical success. The album features songs on Mafia and drug lords "以父之名" which at first hearing was very unorthodox but it displays Jay's creative writing and producing ability. This album can be seen as Jay's second milestone because it gained extremely positive reaction from both critics of his music and supporters of his music. Jay also wanted to prove that he is a versatile artist and not only writes R&B songs, he ventured into more rock-flavoured tunes such as "晴天" which is one of the most played songs of the year. This song gained widespread popularity and high school students started learning guitar to play the drift of the song's intro.

Komposisi Chou secara longgar dikategorikan sebagai musik pop. Sementara banyak dari karya-karyanya jatuh ke R & B kontemporer, rap, dan genre rock, istilah "Chou Style" (: 周氏 風格; pinyin: Zhou Shi Fengge) [1] telah dipopulerkan untuk menggambarkan ciri khasnya musik lintas budaya dan nya desakan bernyanyi dengan ucapan cadel. Taipei Times pernah dijelaskan arti dari "Chou Style": "Dalam apa yang telah menjadi pola dasar Chou gaya, anak kesayangan Taiwan memadukan pop, rap, blues dan hamparan unsur estetika musik dunia untuk menciptakan negeri antah-mimpi-seperti ... "[2]
Chou's compositions are loosely categorized as pop music. While many of his works fall into contemporary [[Rhythm and blues|R&B]], [[hip hop music|rap]], and rock genres, the term "Chou Style" ({{zh|t=周氏風格|p=zhōu shì fēnggé|links=no}})<ref name = "2mill">{{zh icon}} {{cite news |url=http://newsserver.ccwb.net/html1/2006/10/11/f110918.shtml |title="Still Fantasy" Two million albums sold recognized for Jay Chou 《依然范特西》两百万销量力证周董 |publisher=ccwb.net | date=11 October 2006 | accessdate = 2 June 2007 | archiveurl = http://web.archive.org/web/20070505141311/http://newsserver.ccwb.net/html1/2006/10/11/f110918.shtml| archivedate = 5 May 2007}}</ref> has been popularized to describe his trademark cross-cultural music and his insistence on singing with slurred enunciation.

Album Chou telah dicatat untuk kurangnya perubahan dibandingkan dengan karya-karya sebelumnya, namun ia dengan tegas menyatakan bahwa ia tidak akan mengubah gayanya: "Mereka mengatakan saya sudah berdiri diam ... tapi ini adalah musik yang saya inginkan, dan saya tidak melihat apa yang saya inginkan dengan bergerak maju. "[3] Untuk menunjukkan maksudnya, dia menamai album 2006-nya Masih Fantasy setelah album Fantasy nya 2.001. Dia menggunakan santai ucapan telah dikritik sebagai "bergumam" [4] yang ia juga bersikeras tidak akan berubah; [5] Namun, baru-baru ini ia telah mengadopsi pengucapan yang lebih jelas untuk lagu tertentu, terutama lagu-lagu gaya yang lebih tradisional Cina, seperti "Faraway" (: 千里 之外; pinyin: qiānlǐ Zhiwai) yang menampilkan Fei Yu-ching dan "Chrysanthemum Terrace" (: 菊花 台; pinyin: Juhua tai). [6]
Chou's albums have been noted for the lack of change compared to his earlier works, yet he firmly stated that he will not alter his style: "They say I've been standing still&nbsp;... but this is the music I want, and I don't see what I want by moving ahead."<ref name="appetite"/> To demonstrate his point, he named his 2006 album ''Still Fantasy'' after his 2001 album ''Fantasy''.

=== LyricsLirik ===
Chou lebih sering penyanyi-komposer dari penulis lirik. Beberapa "tetap" menulis lirik untuk sebagian besar musiknya, tapi isi dan gaya disatukan dengan kepribadian dan gambar-Nya, yang mencakup beragam topik dan ide-ide. Vincent Fang menyumbang lebih dari setengah dari lirik di album, membantu membangun elemen penting dalam musik Chou: penggunaan bermakna, imagery- dan emosional kaya lirik, kadang-kadang ditulis dalam bentuk puisi Tiongkok kuno dengan mengacu pada sejarah Cina atau cerita rakyat. Selain menulis hit romantis, ia juga menyentuh pada perang, Alkitab, olahraga, dan seni bela diri. Vivian Hsu adalah seorang penyanyi dirinya sendiri dan telah membantu dengan hits Chou sebelumnya, sementara Huang Juni Lang (: 黃俊郎; pinyin: Huáng Junlang). Terkenal karena karyanya sekitar tema yang tidak biasa (seperti cerita detektif dan permainan catur) [butuh rujukan ]
Chou is more often a singer-composer than a lyricist. Several "regulars" write the lyrics for most of his music, but the content and style is unified with his own personality and image, covering a diverse range of topics and ideas.

== MovieKarir careerFilm ==
Chou resmi memasuki industri film pada tahun 2005 dengan merilis film Initial D (頭 文字 D). Dia telah bertindak dalam tiga film lain, diarahkan satu film dan lebih dari selusin video musik. Chou, yang pernah berkata "Aku hidup karena musik"​​, [1] berkelana ke film karena ia merasa perlu untuk tantangan baru. Sebagai penggemar telah tumbuh khawatir bahwa film akan berkompromi karir musiknya, Chou telah berulang kali meyakinkan bahwa film adalah sumber inspirasi, bukan gangguan; pada saat yang sama, ia menyadari kebutuhan untuk menyeimbangkan kedua karir dan mempertahankan tempatnya di bidang musik untuk menggalang dukungan terus fans. [2] [3] [4] [5]
Chou formally entered the film industry in 2005 with the release of the movie ''[[Initial D (film)|Initial D]]'' (頭文字D). He has since acted in three other movies, directed one film and more than a dozen music videos.

As fans have grown concerned that movies will compromise his music career, Chou has repeatedly reassured that movies are a source of inspiration and not a distraction; at the same time, he realizes the need to balance both careers and maintain his place in the music field to garner the continued support of fans.<ref name = "directorsroad">{{zh icon}} {{cite web| url = http://ol.mingpao.com/cfm/star5.cfm?File=20070107/saa01/mak1.txt | title = Jay Chou on the director's road周杰倫攻陷導演路 | date = 7 January 2007 | accessdate = 2 June 2007 | publisher = Mingpao}}</ref><ref name = "movietomusic">{{zh icon}} {{cite news| url = http://music.yule.sohu.com/20070329/n249054788.shtml | title = Plans to slowly distance from movies and "other occupations"/ Jay Chou will return to music 規划逐漸遠离電影等"副業" 周杰倫要回歸音樂 | date = 29 March 2007 | accessdate = 2 June 2007 | publisher = /Sohu}}</ref><ref name = "joymovie">{{zh icon}} {{cite news| url = http://www.epochtimes.com/b5/6/4/10/n1282561.htm | title = Jay Chou: the joy in filming cannot be found in music anymore 周杰倫:拍電影的興奮感在做音樂時已經找不回來 | date = 10 April 2006 | accessdate = 2 June 2007 | publisher = Epoch Times}}</ref><ref name = "invincible">{{zh icon}} {{cite web| url = http://ent.tom.com/2006-12-14/0016/32559464.html | title = The invincible Jay Chou: it's good to be number one | date = 14 December 2006 | accessdate = 2 June 2007 | publisher = ent.tom.com}}</ref>
 
=== ActingAkting ===
[[File:Jaychou Kungfudunkpromo.jpg|left|thumb|Jay Chou at a promotional event for ''[[Kung Fu Dunk]]'' in January 2008]]
Masuk ke akting merupakan langkah tak terduga untuk Chou. [1] guru bahasa Inggris SMA Nya pikir dia mampu sangat sedikit ekspresi wajah, [2] dan direktur Hidden Jalur (2003, film di mana Chou memiliki peran cameo) mengatakan bahwa kepribadian yang individualistik yang kuat tidak akan membuat dia aktor yang baik [3] pada tahun 2005, peran pertama Chou sebagai aktor utama dalam Initial D disajikan dua tujuan:.. untuk memulai debut aktingnya, dan untuk meningkatkan eksposur untuk pemirsa Jepang [4] Film ini didasarkan pada Initial D komik Jepang, di mana Chou bermain Takumi Fujiwara, seorang pembalap touge berbakat yang tenang dan jarang menunjukkan ekspresi. Beberapa pengulas mengkritik hambar aktingnya [5] sementara yang lain merasa ia tampil secara alami, tetapi hanya karena kepribadian karakter erat mencerminkan [6] [7] kinerja sendiri. Nya dalam Initial D memenangkan Best Newcomer Aktor di Golden Horse Awards dan Hong Kong Film Awards. [8] [9] film kedua Chou adalah Curse of the Golden Flower (2006). Sebagai karakter pendukung, ia menarik banyak perhatian wartawan Cina; Keterlibatan Chou di film ini diumumkan pada konferensi pers sendiri, [10] terpisah dari pertemuan yang diadakan untuk Chow Yun-fat, Gong Li, dan aktor-aktor lain. Chou digambarkan Pangeran Jai, ambisius pangeran tertua kedua dan umum tentara Kekaisaran yang kepribadian melambangkan (孝), kebajikan Cina bakti Xiao. Dalam film ini dirilis secara internasional, penonton Amerika Utara melihat Chou untuk pertama kalinya. Menurut kritikus film Cina, komentar tentang aktingnya berkisar dari "tidak memiliki kompleksitas" [11] untuk "diterima," [12] [13] tetapi kritis dipuji oleh pengulas Barat. [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] Penampilannya di Curse of the Golden Flower dinominasikan Aktor Pendukung Terbaik di Hong Kong Film Awards.
