Superstar Jay Chou recently shared a classic movie still from his collaboration with Edison Chen in the film "Initial D" on Instagram, sparking a wave of nostalgia among fans—with many commenting, "Our youth is back." However, as the photo quality was blurry, some fans jokingly commented, "Bro, couldn't you find a clearer picture? Next time let me help you find one!" To everyone's surprise, Jay Chou himself replied: "I don't have time," unexpectedly igniting a hot topic.
"Ryousuke Takahashi: Want to join my racing team? Takumi Fujiwara: Sure! Ryousuke Takahashi: Pay me 300 yuan on WeChat first!" Jay recently posted this old movie still with Edison Chen from "Initial D" on IG, pairing it with a humorous conversation, instantly sending fans into a nostalgic frenzy.
Yet, as the image was blurry, a fan jokingly commented: "Bro, couldn't you find a clearer picture? Next time let me help you find one!" True to his straightforward style, Jay promptly replied: "I don't have time." This bold comeback made the comments section explode, and he went further on his Instagram story, elaborating: "I just randomly pulled a pic from the internet, don't ask me for high-res versions. As long as you can recognize it, that's good enough."
As soon as these remarks were made, they were screenshotted and spread to Weibo. The hashtag "Jay Chou I don't have time" hit over 100 million reads in a single day, topping the trending charts with astonishing momentum. Many fans laughed, saying, "This is the Jay Chou we know—laid back and confident!" Some even praised him for being "adorably cocky," calling the reply classic Jay Chou style. However, a few netizens felt the tone was a bit harsh, suggesting the fan's suggestion was well-intentioned and didn't warrant such a strong response. Loyal fans, meanwhile, defended him: "He's packed with activities lately, just got back from Wimbledon in London and went to art exhibitions—he doesn't have time to carefully choose photos!" Others commented: "He interacts with his fans a lot—this reply just happened to have a punchline, no need to take it too seriously."
