New music video sings up a storm

JAY CHOU, A SINGER FROM TAIWAN, released the music video of his new song Won't Cry on Monday evening. Within three hours, a record 3.6 million copies of the MV were sold on QQ Music alone. China Daily writer Zhang Zhouxiang comments:

As a decade-long fan of Chou, I have bought and watched the MV. It is good, but not his best work. A quick survey of the comments on social media showed many people have a similar opinion. Many have said they bought Chou's new MV because they have grown up listening to his songs.

Chou seems to be at the peak of his career. Apart from selling 3.6 million copies within three hours, his new MV also set a record of 2.7 billion readings on micro blog, with six of the 10 hottest hashtags being on the music video.
