Update from Mr. Chih's Blog:

November 16, 2006
6:00 p.m.

This morning I saw the messages you left for me, a lot of you mentioned that there is already a change in the weather and you're telling me to take care of my health. I am very sorry, I have a cold now. I am in Shanghai right now and its really very cold.

Over at chihchat, someone mentioned if it is possible to have more promotions for Xiao Tian.
For this Japan trip, the focal point is the promotion of the Ken's book. There will be a press conference, TV guestings and a lot of interviews. And since Xiao Tian hasn't been to Japan in a long time there would be the Fan meet with him.

F4 is preparing to film new drama wishes to appear as itinerant entertainers, roles are going to be equal.

Beijing Sina News
November 16, 2006

Since the time of Meteor Garden up to today, F4 has never reunited in front of the big screen, however yesterday our reporter has learned that F4 is in the course of preparing for a new drama. In the beginning of next year they will gather together again. In the past, there is quite a difference in between their remunerations, but it’s getting close to each other at present. Each of them are said to be a “Millionaire Bachelors”.

In the past they were ridiculed that, the value of their clothes were even incomparable to Da S’s expensive shoes. But then as the TV drama became so popular and wide spread across Asia, Yan Cheng Xu and Zhou Yu Min took a more favorable start with more invitations for drama and endorsements.

Zhi Xiang Li, manager in charge of F4’s propaganda indicated, in the wake of the popularity of the four members becoming distinct, Zhu Xiao Tian has chosen to go for the profoundly wayward or perhaps the naughty and artful style. As to Wu Jian Hao, he has taken a more energetic image. Furthermore the company has unceasingly provided lots of inputs to propagate their popularity and exposures for the last two years, which currently came out with apparent progress.

For example in the past, when some company looked for a spokesman, they would say “let’s take a look at all of them together” but now, for some active image they will directly say they want Vanness, for some artistic job they will look for Zhu Xiao Tian. Either in consideration of demand or reward, they are almost the same now. Their remunerations are all rank at 7-digits. Both Zhu Xiao Tian and Vanness Wu are as commercially attractive as Jerry Yan and Vic Zhou.


Zhi Xiang Li revealed that next year F4 would film a drama and series of promotional ads for Taiwan Tourism Ambassadors. The project will also include series of concerts, fans meeting and a drama.

Nowadays, four of them are of equal influences. This gave the management company a challenge. “ Right now, it is impossible for us to go back to the days of “Meteor Garden.” During those days the focus were on Yan Cheng Xu and Zhou Yu Min. Of course the fans for the others will not be convinced for this arrangement. We will consider every one when we work on our story. It may impose certain difficulties to make it more successful than “Meteor Garden”. We are still considering whether it would a single episode or a series drama. We just can’t let one play the lead and the others will just be decorations, by that time they should definitely play more or less the same shares in it!”

Note: itinerant means traveling from place to place. thanks to weiwei, kinkima for helping me with the translations.

it would be nice if it's a series, and they'd do just a rotational story. but not like say yes enterprise though. more like this episode its focused on jerry, the next one wil be ken, and so on, but they are still all interconnected. kinda like what they did in FRIENDS. it is definitely hard to give them equal roles with equal exposures. they did that in meteor garden 2 and it just made the characters so distant with each other because they were having their own lives apart from each other. but i'm sure it's gonna be a great project. i mean, they wouldn't agree to do it if 's not gonna be one. but like i said, i still hope they'd get rainie as planned and have cai yue xun direct them.

wow! a new series from F4. Hoepfully it will be something mature and not the usual angie Chai stuff, the cuty-cuty type of drama. Eww! i hope no dancing, eww! it will be hard for me to imagine for Ken to do that. An action series or part for Ken would be nice as a prelude to chu liu xiang. thumbsup.gif

Zhu Xiao Tian is a truly dependable person, happy to help others.

Hai Xia City Newspaper
11/18/2006

Zhu Xiao Tian’s massage gave Xiao Qiang news exposure, a lot of internet surfers ask if it is true or not. Yesterday, Xiao Qiang for the first time faced and explained this thing, she said: Zhu Xiao Tian is a dependable person and always ready to help others. When filming she would be very tired, his massage skills is really very good, I would just call him to go to my room and he would come to give me a massage, he would really make an effort. I would often cry out in a loud voice but its really very relaxing. Xiao Qiang explained that Zhu Xiao Tian not only gave her a massage but he has helped others staff as well.

just want to share this article:


There is a real joke.When some guys were talking heatedly about “F4”in the living room, the father came in and interrupted: “Which is more powerful, F-4 or F-16?” The boys burst into laughter.Obviously, the father took F4 for a type of fighter plane.He didn’t know that F4 is a pop group extremely popular among young people these two years.
v`
lV Fk l
"H0m
ebl"j(O]6Z+]Then what does the “F” in F4 stand for? Fever or fortune? It is certainly not “failure” for sure! We look at the success and appeal of these 4 stars from the popular drama Meteor Garden 《流星花園》,who took the island by storm during their brief visit here.For sure, they look good.Each of them being 1.80 meters tall, they are all very popular throughout the world. Xn)a*z+gT

:M;~n/X!|#n+v/@C(K!}ca M朱孝天Ken Chu - 天籟‧孝天的聲音 Ken's voice - voice from heavenBut what exactly is the appeal of these 4 young guys? Nobody can tell.Maybe some of young students are just following the fashion.Then why is Meteor Garden stopped from being shown on TV in China? Well, some young people just could not agree.In fact, students are not too young to tell black from white.And they must be clear that every coin has two sides.While they find interest in F4, they must be clear what bad that drama will do us.

Mr. Chih talks about Xiao Tian:


Everyone who knows Xiao Tian will understand that he is a person who always cares for others. Ever since F4’s first public appearance, he always showed consideration for the other three members and he is like their Mama.

For the hard working staff and colleagues he would bring snacks for everyone to share. Our Xiao Tian is the kind of person who would do gentle acts. He believes that everyone can work together in a harmonious manner. I really don’t understand how other people can think too much.

During filming a lot of individuals compose a work unit, there are a lot of times when the promotions would come from all directions, we must be careful about who we talk about bearing in mind if it would be disadvantageous to others or if that other person is willing to be used in whatever way for promotions.

After boy band Little Tigers¡¨ dismissed in 1991, various types of boy bands emerged in the oriental region. Nevertheless, they were seldom able to make a furor throughout China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Asia at the same time. Not until the rises of F4 had boy bands become the focus of entertainment world again. There are many differences in between the Little Tigers and F4 on their success. The most important difference is F4's popularity was propagated by idol drama. However, they still have a common factor. That is, both bands got an aggressive lady back on them. For the Little Tigers, that's Miao Xiu Li, whereas, for F4, that's Chai Zhi Ping.

At the beginning, F4 could only buy cheap clothes

Yan Cheng Xu, it was a coincident that Chai Zhi Ping saw his photo; Zhou Yu Min, who came with a friend for audition; Chu Xiao Tian yeah.gif , a waiter worked in a BBQ restaurant; Wu Jian Hao, who ran into Chai's colleague. These four handsome sunny boys were recruited by Chai Zhi Ping for her Meteor Garden¡¨ TV series in February 2001. Later on, they began having the same name as they had in this drama, F4 (Flower boys). At first during filming, Chai Zhi Ping did not intend to group them into boy band. At that time, all of them were not wealthy.Chai Zhi Ping said, I remembered the first time I brought them to shop clothes. We did not have enough budgets so we can only buy cheap clothes. I urge them to do their best. If they become famous, they may have a chance to make records or even have world tour concerts.

Mainland China and Taiwan, both regions were obsessed with F4

The success of Meteor Garden rewards them with rocket flame. Both Chai Zhi Ping and F4 were so excited. Meteor Garden broadcast in 2001, when internet was well developed. Fans from Mainland China downloaded the drama through various means. They witnessed F4's success with the Taiwanese at the same time. During those years, many fans who like F4 said, other than interested in their handsome appearance, more importantly, this drama fulfill their dreams and fantasy.[/size]

[size=3]Meteor Garden got Part II


Chai Zhi Ping realized the powerful influence of drama on boy bands. She decided to invest in Meteor Garden II¡¨ in April 2002. Since part I were so popular, Part II could even invited famous filmmaker Hou Xiao Xian to be the producer.

Unfortunately after filming started, they encountered many problems, like changing directors for 3 times, Da S tried to resign from it. All these brought along with the rapid success of F4. They had to run for all kinds of commercial events between China and Taiwan, shooting numerous advertisements. Although F4 did not have long-term training like the Little Tigers, they were born in an open-minded decade. This further proves an old saying, the most important factor for the success of Chinese boy band is a matter of right timing.

After Meteor Garden broadcast, F4 started have conflicts with Chai Zhi Ping's agency company due to disagreements on commission distribution. Their conflicts broaden as number of fans increased and got worst at the end of filming Meteor Garden II. Appeared mature yet innocent Yan Cheng Xu complained Chai Zhi Ping as the Vampire¡¨ on couple press conferences. Chai also geared her effort on Comic boys¨. Even-though both parties tried their best to liaison and compromise, F4's contract ended up being transferred to Fu Long under Yao Yi Jun on January 2003. This marked the beginning of their individual ventures.

The situation for F4 is better than a dying skinny camel

March 8, 2003, many presses reported that it was the last event F4 showed up together on the Pepsi Stars Charity Concert¨ held at Hong Kong Coliseum. July 2005, F4 were surprisingly found not set apart when they once again appeared together in Japan and announced the opening of their official Japanese Fan Club. Their situation is described as much better than a dying skinny camel¨. March 22nd to 25th , 2006, the four held 4 concerts in Hong Kong which still made a fruitful return. Will F4 be reunited? The key factor rests on their solo development. Currently they all accomplished certainly success individually. Notwithstanding this, they can always come back like many other foreign rock bands tens of years later. As long as they are still in fans' hearts infatuated.gif , they will always be here in the entertainment world.

Unfortunately for F4 fans, Ken has left the boy band in 2004 and formed a new group of six called “Ken Zhu and the Free Birds” which includes a girl as the cello player. Despite the exit, loyal fans of Ken are here to stay!

---Wait, I think this is wrong... F4 never really disbanded. In all of the 4 member's recent interviews, they never declared that F4 is no longer a group. They just always claimed that for now they are doing solo projects... so that they could improve on their own. F4 is still a group... they've always been brothers... a family!

More on Fan meeting:

Just received some more news from Fan meeting. After Ken sings Meteor Rain and disappears from stage, the fans sing the beach song together. They sing very good and repeat several times. And when Ken appear again, he join the singing together. At this moment, the camera is giving Ken a close up. My friend see Ken's eyes are red, seems there is tears inside. However, she was not sure about this so she didn't tell me when she called me last time. Now, they have discussed about this again and confirmed that KEN IS MOVED ANS HIS EYES ARE RED.

In the last last goodbye, Ken give a fly kiss, and show his hand from left to right, giving the kiss to everyone. Then, he does something the same as Kimura did in the Japanese drama 'Pride". He put his hand on his heart, make a fist, then release to everyone......... everyone is screaming.......

Fans wailed excitedly

Source: Not list.
Date: November 27, 2006

Two days ago in the evening, Chu Xiao Tian held a Fan meeting at Yokohoma in Japan. Organizer invested 20 millions Japanese yen (close to 7 million NTW) in order to impress 3000 “Shou Nuu” participant ladies. Chu Xiao Tian rendered so many “Love bear hugs” making winning girl fans wailed excitedly.

3000 fans burst the conference hall

This fans meeting was exclusively for F4ever official club members. Each member spent $2000 yen (close to $700 NTW) for admission. The conference hall was mean to hold only 2000 people but 3000 people rushed in. All are lady fans. Several media also surged for it..

Touches and scratches, prim ladies threw away manners

weather was cold outside the venue but zealous inside the hall. When Chu Xiao Tian walked into the hall across a short distance of 100 meter, Japanese “Shou Nuu” (ladies), who were known to be prim and quiet, totally lost control. They broke through security and reached out to touch and scratch him. After the event, Chu Xiao Tian said, “I got scratches all over. I even lost my microphone that was set on me.


cried for winning flights and bear hugs

He (Ken) shared some photos and cooking techniques from his cookbook with fans. They played games and sang together. One of the fans won a Taiwan-Japan round trip flight ticket. When she came up stage to collect the prize from Chu Xiao Tian, she cried. She wept and said that she had a car accident the day before the fans meeting. She thought she could not come to meet Chu Xiao Tian. Finally she made it but was surprised to win the grand prize.

Chu Xiao Tian kindly gave this girl fan a “Love bear hug” and made her cried with excitement. Other than this girl, Chu Xiao Tian also generously gave so many “Love bear hugs” making every hugged lady blushed and other fans jealously yelled off-stage.

Chu Xiao Tian expressed that it was so warm and cozy to spend an evening with fans at this time in Japan when places are dressed up for Christmas.

[11/28/2006] Ken is going off-stage after 2 years

Chu Xiao Tian will turn to jobs behind-the-scene after 2 years

Source: Sing Pao
Date: November 28, 2006


Chu Xiao Tian’s Japanese version cuisine book will open sale this week in Japan. He is the first Chinese artist being invited on live news program “News Zero”. On top of showing his special tactic to aspire girls, he also demonstrated his proficient cooking skills which deeply impressed the host. While cutting an onion, he said, “I’d purposely let the girl look at me with running tears when I cut onion. She will be deeply impressed. As long as showing the girl how you cook, you can do whatever you want to afterwards.” His words surprised the host, “Can we talk about this on TV ?” Chu Xiao Tian laughted, “Does it matter? I am also a normal man.”

Recently, Chu Xiao Tian obsessed with Tai Chi. Everyday he wakes up early at 4 to learn Tai Chi from a teacher in the park. He baldly described that he lives like an old retiree. He plans to turn to off-stage works after his agency contract expire one year after. First of all, he intend to work on a TV drama which is a story about a young man with super-natural power.

Bold and generous “Chu Xiang Shuai”
Looks more like “Wu Tie Hua”


Date: November 28, 2006
Author: Yi Wei Ci


IPB Image

At night, Chu Xiao Tian munched Sashimi in a Japanese restaurant. Talking loud and boldly, he enjoyed some wine pleasantly. He jested that he’s born to drink. When he was young, he went with his father for business and got drunk at the early age of 10.

heavenAfter couples of drinks, he straightly confessed that he is a bad-tempered person. He said, there was one time during filming in the middle of the night. The time was up but he was not allowed to go. He could barely wait for his manager to coordinate and started scolding. He then talked about his grievance and bad experience from work.

He bluntly admitted that he would not be as gentle as the other members of F4 when he run into fans who amid or chase after him. From his viewpoint, this is his private time. He does not want to put on a smiling face but would rather show a straight face and flee away. Looking at this outspoken soaker, I wonder, “Is this the same serious Chu Xiao Tian that was in the studio this afternoon?” Compared to Chu Liu Xiang, you, Chu Xiang Shuai, looks more like “Wu Tie Hua”!

Hao, it seems that Xiao Tian is purposely saying to the press that he is bad tempered and aloof and sometimes green-minded to show all of us that he is indeed very normal... very human... and naughty. That's what sets him apart from other artist... he's so frank and doesn't care if others think bad of him. I respect him for being like that... very honest.

About the song Hamabe no Uta

Tis traditional sounding Song of the Beach has been sung in Japan for 70 years. The beautiful accompaniment brings to mind the peacefulness of nature described by lyrics.

Hamabe no Uta(Song of the Beach)
{Ken sung this one in his movie in tokyo trial}

Ashita hamabe o samayoeba,
mukashi no koto zo shinobaruru.
Kaze no oto yo, kumo no sama yo,
yosuru nami mo kai no iro mo.

Yube hamabe o motooreba,
mukashi no hito zo shinobaruru.
Yosuru nami yo, kaesu nami yo,
tsuki no iro mo ho shi no kage mo.

English Translation:

Hamabe no Uta(Song of the Beach)

I a walk is taken in the beach at dawn,
it will be reminded of an old things,
Sound of wind and scene of cloud,
scene of wave coming and color of shells.

If it stands still at the beach in the evening
it will be reminded of the person who met at ancient times
Wave brings near returns
Also color of the moon Also stellar shadow

The quick wave came
and the skirt got wet immediatley.
Sick I healed up completly,
it is reminded of a former student's face if the sand of a beach is seen

Mr. Chih said: "It is definitely no dancing, totally different from the F4 concert in Hong Kong before."

To each and every F4 fan and friend, hello to all, I am Xiao Tian!
I am very happy that through the magazine, I am able to let everyone know of my recent developments... At present I am still putting my efforts in the filming of “The Legend of Chu Liu Xiang” … This is my first time to film an ancient drama, I am also trying to mold myself to fit that image, I hope that when that time comes, each and every one of you would be able to appreciate a different me. I am also hoping for the next opportunity that we could meet again!

Lately the weather has been changing a lot I hope everyone takes good care of your body, pay attention to your health!

By Xiao Tian
