errr...Taiji worked with 7 flowers on one of the pingbi's a short while ago...their cheering act....I'm sure you can go find the clip on youtube...and it was also mentioned somewhere..maybe in the 7 flowers thread that since they've worked with KOne and 183Club in collaboration before, they would love to do a future collaboration with Taiji.

I know I'm really late with the whole Cream news but I agree with what everyone has said. Geeeez to have 183 working with them is pedaphile-ish! It's not just eww but it's basically illegal in most places! I know I know it's not illegal to just collaborate but I'm just saying people of those 2 age groups together are a big no no. I listened to the song in that mv provided above and I don't think they sound bad. I think they actually sound pretty good for their age, but... yeah I don't think they're all that pretty.
And yes like most people said, it would be cute to have them work with Lala!

i just started to like jstars and now they are depleting in numbers? This is just so hard to withstand. I personally love them united as a large family than as individual groups like during those new years shows they had. They were all so funny. I hope sunzhong can somehow sign k one back.
As for Cream....OMG WHAT THE HECK IS SUNZHONG THINKING!!! I mean I normally dont bash on groups cause I like to be neutral towards these topics, but this is the wrongest idea ever. I am canto so I have seem them on tv before and I really dislike them. I mean if EEG gave up on them, I have no clue why Jstar wants them. EEG has a way of taking ppl w/ no talent and making them big. I guess sunzhong wants to train his stars young, like what EEG did w/ Isabella Leuong?(they "secretly" trained her for 3 yrs since she was 13). maybe there should be like a boycott against cream. :]
I mean imagine five grown men working with three young girls. Sounds so wrong. Andy Lau was ok cause there's only one of him, but 5 makes them look like molesters. no offense.
I like having 7F as the only girl group cause they were always taken cared of by the other groups. The little boy in LALA is fine cause he's a boy(not to be sexiest). The other groups can get along w/ him cause he joins the games and jokes. Having Cream is like babysitting them. I guess you guys can have a better understanding of what I mean for those who have watched the new year's olympic thing they did back in jan. From that video, you see the boy in LALA just playing along and then 7F gets special care.
Maybe my opinions are a bit subjective, so I hope I dont offend anyone. But seriously I think sunzhong should shape up his company cause I really looked up to him for making such a successful company but it's such a disappointment to read from the beginning of the thread to this point. ok i am done venting.

Okay... so apparently I've been out of touch with a lot of things... I stop watching wqyl and going to forums and all this stuff happens...
but when did this Cream news come about?
What's going on? Jstars is wringing a group called Cream? And they're going to be working with 183?... That's really really strange....
Hmm... but I remember a while back about Sunzhong saying that "girls are just too much trouble" and that "7 flowers is pretty much all they can take" (lol)
So... hmm... that is really odd...
And I was wondering about Typhoon... what'll happen... or actually, what happened to them?
And someone mentioned something about Toro and zai zai... but isn't that old news?
so confused...

First of all bout the Cream group...are they already joined J-Stars? Are there any news about it...? because I don't see one...Like Done-Oh, when 'it' first joined J-Stars there's a news on WQYL...but about Cream I don't see one...anyone have the links on the news?
About Song Zhi Ai... The girl who played Susan in Liu Guang Sheng Lin (Green Forest, My Home). She joined J-Stars right? because in J-Stars magazine Nov issue, she's in it. As far as I know only J-Stars member will be featured in the magazine...

Yep. Song Zhi Ai is her stage name and I can't forget her real one (or her pre-stage name)... but yes, she is Jungiery.
Jungiery has a HUGE amount of stars. The most well-known ones are in the dramas, but I think they have various teachers, models, and dancers/talents in the company as well. Obviously. I think Song Zhi Ai was a model before they recognized her acting talent (I haven't seen Green Forest, so I wouldn't know HOW good she is)... and I think she was in another drama before Green Forest.. but I can't remember.
*And maybe the news about Cream joining Jungiery is supposed to be hush-hush. Maybe Sun Zhong wants to train the girls for a few years because he recognizes potential talent and then "officially" introduce them to the public under Jungiery when they're ready. That seems to make more sense, especially considering the reaction here about Cream joining Jungiery when they're so young... imagine Taiwanese fans...!
** And I think Typhoon is on "freeze" right now with the removal of Darren. There hasn't been any news about Typhoon at all recently, which leads one to speculate... I think they're probably actively searching for another member. OR I heard awhile back with Typhoon released their first album that Toro said that Sun Zhong said if Typhoon's album doesn't sell (something in the range of) 10,000 copies (or something like that. It wasn't a HUGE number, but it wasn't exactly a modest amount -- like 1,000) he wouldn't allow for a second album. Which is understandable considering if the first album wasn't a success and we all know about sophomore slumps, don't we? [usually, an artist's second album is a lot worse or sells a lot worse than the first, hence the sophomore slump.] Whatever. I hope we hear more about Toro though...! I like him; he's cute!

It's for sure that 5566 are relaunching next year, they've already started to appear more frequently together, Shao Wei's birthday at WQYL, Golden Bell Awards etc.
About Jason joining Fahrenheit, totally unreliable since Sun Zhong would never allow such a thing, Fahrenheit are signed to HIM and not Jungiery.

I listened to the cream MV provided above and they sound…not too bad-ish. But they’re speaking canto! Some of the jstars will have no clue what they’re talking about.
For instance, SZ say they’ll be working with 183 rite? SW can’t even speak canto, and no offence to SW fans, cos I love him myself, but I just start laughing everytime he speaks canto in AQMFS. How are they supposed to act together if they can’t even speak the same language? SZ gona hire a translator? *disappointed sigh*
Sun Zhong, please pair Cream with a proper group, if you REALLY want to induct themn into Jungiery

dang....as long as one works in or on entertainment there are bound to be good periods and periods that allow one or another to take the time to take a deep breath just like daily life...so either you support jstars or you don't its that simple...and then like the saying, "if you dont have anything nice to say don't say anything at all" its the most simplest rule out there next to Respect one another. Whether or not j stars is dropping, we as the people arent even there to see perse what goes on in the daily grind of their lives...or how hard they are working their butts off to bring something new to the table/television every freaking day of our lives. I wish people would stop seeing jungiery in such a negative light...you don't like them yet you watch their shows and when they are not in the spotlight but offstage brainstorming to bring in something new, you complain...I mean come on people, give them a break they are not burger king's where you can "have it your way"...come on even burger king don't really let you have it your way... as there slogan goes, if we did we would be eating there everyday for free.

Song Zhi Ai's real name is Cheng Jia Yu (hmm..i think my pinyin for the family name is wrong). Sun Zhong gave her 'Song Zhi Ai' as a screen name because it came from the names of the top 3 famous korean actress. They are wishing her to become like them one day.

Yup, I totally agree.. J-Star's declining and I think they don't even deserve half of the artistes they have lor.. They are totally wasting their talents and letting them rot there.
Not finding any commercial opportunities for their artistes, not having those like QE who can act brilliantly act in more than 1 drama each year, not having those who are good at hosting have a few more opportunities and so on..
Think the talented ones in J-Star should all just try and change company ASAP cuz they are definitely wasted under J-Star, especially the females, since Sun Zhong is definitely the old-fashiion types who look down on girls compared to guys.
moomoocows
Dec 29 2006 10 14 AM
i have never really heard from sz say that girls are troublesome though many ppl have mentioned it before
however i was just watching the cover story of 7f from last year and they talked about their past in this industry. In jstar only 2 stars have been "frozen" before and unfortunately they are both in 7f.
and also adding onto zaizai's scandal that probably increases sz reason to think girls are troublesome. or maybe he is just the traditional style. but i also think these reasons add on to his beliefs. And also if one of his rules is that jstars cant date each other, so less girls means less dating. (i was also watching another coverstory w/ 183 and they were saying its hard to date in this industry especially cuz YXS said," our company only has 4 girls and they are called 7f.")
So i also guess signing cream to JStar wouldnt stir up rumors unless one of them dates jiaen from lala (which probably wouldnt happen)
but these are just my conjestures. i might be wrong.
btw... you guys might know that jstars have to pay a fine when they break the dating rules and if they get caught on camera however did you guys know that they also get fined if their body isn't fit? wat a company....

Jan 5 2007 5 50 PM
Well, I've read that Sun Zhong based this company off the Japanese company that made SMAP famous... which was all guys.
I don't think there's anything really wrong with the dating within the company rule... but I do think that Sun Zhong definitely favors the men in the company. The girls constantly get the short end of the stick. Okay, so 7F is not, in my opinion, really a great live musical act, but all the girls have proved time and again that they are good-- sometimes amazing-- actresses... and they do have a broad fanbase that stretches beyond Taiwan. But Sun Zhong never capitalizes on this... I forget who said it earlier, but yeah... 7F and K-One (back when they were still under Jungiery), though popular, were never allowed to travel to other countries for promotions. For WZBQW, XQ and QE stayed at home while 183Club toured.
The thing is... yes, generally, guys are an easier sell to the public. BUT I think we can see from stars like Ariel Lin YiChen, Rainie Yang ChengLin, and Barbie Hsu (Da S) that girls can make it, too... and make it really big! QiaoEn was voted the most popular Taiwanese actress in China just last month... and I've seen many people in the Critics Forum who hate Taiwanese entertainment, but think that XiaoQiao is absolutely gorgeous... and a good actress. Sun Zhong should really capitalize on this!
QUOTE(spirit @ Jan 5 2007 11 30 AM) [snapback]3383159[/snapback]
why are lala's blogs taken off the j-stars website?!

Whoa... really? I don't know... I didn't get the December issue of J-Stars... plus, they've been changing the format of that magazine for a while now... not all the groups are featured every month, so I have no idea.
I think LaLa should still be in Jungiery, though... because Anthony is in Engagement for Love... and they just added a new member... plus, Dang-Oh is like the defining character of their company, actually... even 183Club and 7F have sung Dang-Oh/LaLa's songs.
7F *did* go abroad to promote their album before. They've been to Singapore and Malaysia and Phillipines too. I remember them appearing on local entertainment shows (minus Qiaoen who was filming MXQB) here in Malaysia before to promote their album.
But I totally agree that SZ favours boys over girls, which isn't fair at all. Maybe he doesn't know how to promote girls. I seriously think his idea of having 7F looking so squeaky-clean and cute-looking isn't really working, partly because of the age gap. Look at the age difference between Xiao Jie and Qiaoen - that's more than 10 years. It's okay to ask Xiao Jie and Wei Ru to do all those cute poses, but I feel that for Qiaoen, she should be moving on to a more feminine, mature image already. Same for Xiao Qiao.
Apart from just managing them, I think they should really send their artistes for proper vocal training before they release an album. Like 56, Xiezhi and Renfu had no problems when 56 first started, because the two of them have released albums before. But Shaowei and Mengzhe were just left out like that. They rely too much on what the stars already have, instead of training them to get better. 7F could do well with vocal training too.

Isn't Song Zhi Ai the girl that plays Su Shan in "Lu Guang Shen Ling" with YanYan and Leon Jay Williams? Her name sounds oddly familiar...
Tammiest, Chien, I completely agree...LaLa should be in Jungiery...Anthony's moving upward too...yeah they just added another member.
I think Sun Zhong should give 7F some attention at least...I think they deserve it. There performance at Tau Yuan on the New Year Countdown was excellent, and 7F is winning on one of the polls (I forgot which) when they were voting for the best girl group in Taiwan...I think it was these three competing:
-Sweety
-7 Flowers
-S.H.E.
So actually I think 7F is rising their way up. When I was in Taiwan I bought their album by the way along with the Angel Lover soundtrack.

So 7F and Jungiery, Jia Yo!!
P.S - Tammiest, your Milk Story you uploaded was awesome!!

Jan 5 2007 9 46 PM
Yeah, I LOVE Song ZhiAi. I think she's really, really cute... she's in K-One's Music Love Story... that's actually where I first saw her. She's also in the MV for Fa Xian Zhen Ai [Discover True Love]. There's a
thread for her already in which I uploaded some screencaps for her part in the MV.
chien, oh... I had no idea that 7F was actually allowed to go abroad... all I really knew is that QE is quite popular in the Philippines... I heard she even had a cameo in a Filipino drama once... and that QE and XQ were consistently left out of promotions for WZBQW. It was only in the last month that Sun Zhong finally allowed QE to go to China. And over in the K-One thread, they were saying that they only went abroad a couple of times while they were under Jungiery.
That's a good point about the age gap, but I think the image thing is improving somewhat... for example, when XQ and QE went to the Jin Zhong [Golden Bell] Awards, they looked sophisticated and elegant. And 7F's yellow + cameo outfits were cutesy without being too young, I think. In my opinion, XJ doesn't look that young... they've sort of made her up to look older.
jstarcraze (thanks for the praise

), I had no idea 7F was doing so well in polls! Sun Zhong should really capitalize.
Also, I agree with
chien about not training better singers. In 183Club, they also rely heavily on Jacky and YuRong... both who at least had recording contracts before... although I guess it's somewhat different because they market themselves as experts in different fields. But for a group like 7F, none of those girls were chosen for their vocals (unless XiaoJie was), and I think (sorry, guys) it definitely shows in their songs... and most especially whenever they sing live. I once saw them on Harlem's Elementary School... and they had to sing on the spot... songs which weren't their own, and not a single note was actually in tune,

To me, though, it seems that they're training XiaoJie... especially since she's still in school. I think her vocals are improving.
But again, I just think that it's harder to market girls in general... but the fact is that Sun Zhong's obviously found some winners. It's such a shame that he isn't capitalizing on it.
(I would support them if they left Jungiery when their contracts were up and pursued their own careers.)
P.S. Does anyone know whatever happened to ManTou of 7F? I really liked her! They said she left to pursue her own career...

i totally agree that sunzhong doesnt really know how to promote his stars individually. he can promote his company (jstar) really well though.
last time when i was on the junigery website, the only schedule available was for 183 promoting angel lover. and the christmas events but nothing more. they arent really promoting the singers as a group...like 183 is all out doing their own thing. (i know kone left jstar) kone is better off as a whole than individuals.
and talking bout kone...i am sad that they had left jstar because it was great seeing them in such a big family but then again they are gonna get more opportunity in wingman.
as for 7f..i read in their thread that they have been to the other countries and that man tou left because she wanted to become a dance teacher instead
maybe this is my own opinion but do you guys think jstar became famous after WZBQW and since that is long ago their fame is decreasing?

I have not been to this forum for quite awhile and I have to say I agree with you on that fact that Jungiery is losing some popularity right now. The fact that K one returned to Wingman did not help Jungiery. Right now it feels like J-star is all over the place. Everyone is doing there own thing and they don't seem as united as they did in the past.

i'm sad as well, that k one is no longer part of the j-stars family... but they really are better off with wingman. in jungiery, i felt that they were really overshadowed, especially by 183 club. notice that k one was probably the longest lasting j-stars group who haven't had a change in members?
i started to pay attention to j-stars around the time of WZBQW as well. i have to agree that this series made the whole company recognized, whereas before, only 5566 was well-known.

I'm not sure if this is the MV of Cream that was posted before but I found this, the only one I could fine of them. They really arent that good at all, their voices are nice, but their skills are no good and they dont know how to use their voices to advance their blend and effects. But I think in time and experience they will get better?
The thing is that they really don't suit the J-Star industry though... they are 15, 14 and 12... how will they work with 183 Club? (25+ years old). But if they worked with Andy Lau then I think they wont be too horrible. I don't really object too horribly of them joining J-Stars, but I dont really like it. From what I hear from you guys, "Sun Zhong" I think it was, if he can improve on how he projects and makes each group of stars popular and suceeds on bringing them up, then he can bring up Cream, but since he can't then he really shouldnt. He's just ruining everyone in J-Star by not promoting them... sadly. Really wish to see K-One back with the rest of 'em, 5566, 183 club, 7Flowers and all.
Oh, and I thought Sweety was with J-Star's but guess not... hehe. ^.^ I totally agree with you all! [youtube]5ad-gwiS7hM[/youtube]

No. They are not moving from Jungiery to Capitol. The rummor started because Sun Zhong together with the Head of Capitol are good friends so some people wondered that maybe 5566 and 183 will be moving from Warner to Capitol. But as of now it would be quite impossible because their contract with Warner wasn't been done yet. They were just saying about the Album Management not the Talent Management.
Even though K-One is not a part of J-Stars anymore but I think they are still included in the baseball team of J-Stars.

I have read a lot on the above about Jungiery not promoting on other groups besides 183club and 5566.
A friend of mine is in same nature of company in Taiwan,I won't say which. When I discuss about this issue with him, it seems that I was given a clearer perspective as to the role of the talent company like J-star.
First of all, in order for any talent i.e. K-One, 183, 5566 or 7F to travel there must be a promoter in that country who is willing to pay. Talent company definately would not fork out money to pay for them to travel without purpose.
Talent company only earns a cut/commission from the fees that an artist is paid for the job done i.e. a performance/appearance and record sales and acting and commercial models. Appearances in variety shows also brought in income.
All in all, there is not reason the talent company would not want to promote any artist under them because if they don't earn, the company also do not have any income but the company still have fixed overhead to covers ie assistants and admin workers as well as rentals etc...
One would say it is the talent company's responsibility to go and do hot sale of their talent. If they are hot enough like Jolin, Jay Chou, Rainie etc... people come and look them up and not the other way round. That says a lot isn't it?
Even when he has wanted to promote his talent, he may not know which product is launching or looking for new talent. SZ may be an 'old fox' in the industry with a lot of contacts but I am very sure he is not privy to info from most company. Also how could he know who is organising what event in their country.
Even for drama, the talent's portfolio is always updated to all tv station and production house. If they are casting for a new drama, these are the files that those companies would extract from. SZ have no say about who they should cast for their new drama as they are the one investing in the drama.
Not even a Film Director have a say in who to cast in each drama. Its the management of the station who would make the decision. Same scenario in HK as well.
I brought up to my friend, the hotly debated issue earlier in a lot of thread in Taiwan ... why QE is not casted in any drama for a very long time after WQBZW. It's not SZ who pays for a drama to be filmed. If the station wanted different cast, there is nothing he can do about it.
Well, there is no offence here, I hope. I just grab the opportunity to talk to my friend and shared it here.

it's sad how jstars seem to be falling apart now. =( i first heard about jstars because of WZBQW. and i love the jstars MVs. but now k one has left and it's not the same now without them in jstars. also cream joining jstars is just ugh..not cool.
anyway, some happier news is that jstars (or what remains of jstars) are making a new MV for new years from what i could understand of this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OyA3DEzzSvUit still feels weird without k one in there though...=\
however, the song is catchy. i like it. =)
on a final note, i hope SZ doesn't continue to make jstars fall apart. he's already done enough damage what with adding cream and letting k one leave....

In Sun Zhong's defense though... I'm pretty sure he probably didn't want KOne to leave either. But since KOne was already under the jurisdiction and contract of another management compnay, Jungiery had to give them back to Wingman once Xiao Dao was all recovered and could resume being their manager. It's kind of unfortunate, kind of a good thing. It's a good thing for KOne, because if KOne hadn't been in Jungiery, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't have gotten the level of exposure that they got with Jstars and wouldn't be as popular as they are now. Before Jungiery, while they were still with Wingman, KOne released an album, but it did really badly because no one really knew who they were. Now... well, everyone knows KOne and they rock...!

Why keep saying cream is joining JStar Taiwan? I have not seen them in any of the Jstar activities.... latest MV or even in J-star Magazine this month. If they join, then whats the hassle? Only 1 more group in the company.... they can make it or not yet to be seen.
If they make it, the company earns, if not then thats the end for them.
Nanshi has explain very clearly about the situation on K-One. What she said, I would only like to attest to it that its true. The real K-One fans should know that their beginning is tough till they come to J-star.
They trained under Sun Zhong, and the company has revived them through TOTFC. Their next album also picks up and the rest is what you have seen now. In fact all
K-One member is so appreciative of SunZhong, that they described him as 'Foster Father' - the one who bring them up.
During launch of their latest album under Wingman, SZ was there on the stage with them eventhough they are no longer under his company.
SunZhong is a businessman too, do you think a businessman would let his investment in the company go down the drain? On the other hand, its
Sun Zhong's company.... so if he wants to let it falls apart.... that his rights.

just curious.. why do they celebrate the 6th anniversary? Is it a lucky number? Cause normally anniversaries go every 10 yrs or 5yrs. And if Junigery anniversary is around this time of the year..then don't they always celebrate it with a love miracle cd anyways?
i listened to the song. it has more of a beachy feel then a rocknroll theme

I haven't listened to the song yet, but if it's more beachy, it just means that they're defining rock 'n' roll much closer to its inception. Rock 'n' roll wasn't just Elvis Presley... the early "rock 'n' roll" kings were people like Frankie Avalon, who, coincidentally, filmed lots and lots of beach movies and sang all the songs for them. That's probably where they're getting it from.
