Fangirl squeal first:
This man just gets handsomer and handsomer! (sorry...I believe that word is grammatically incorrect but it's just so appropriate!)
Jay was all coolness and charm at the promotional event for AEON motorbikes on 3 July 2013 as he talked about the machine and marriage. :)

Translation:
It's good to have a wife who is younger.
I hope to have a son; a little Jay Chou.
I hope to be a Dad when I'm 36, so that when he's 20, I'm only 56 and not too old to have fun with him.
He hopes to be able to bring his kids out, without fear of the pappz.
He does not deny that he would be a loving father but would not be too perturbed if the pappz got a shot of his son.
Paternal instinct!
He wants a son to continue the family name.
Although he wants to be the Big Man, he believes there should be mutual respect between husband and wife. One does not need to be a stay-home Mum to be a good Mum. As long as she cares for the child well.

Jay was all smiles during the event....wonder if that's because he has popped the question already and got the answer he wanted?? ;)
As for not having planned the wedding yet, well, I'm pretty sure all the hotels or restaurants would bend over backwards to accomodate him, even if there's not much notice given.
After all, he IS Jay Chou....imagine the publicity for whichever venue??
Lol...the authorities should just make his wedding day a public holiday...haha!
See what I mean about his beaming countenance and self-satisfied demeanour?

On a side note, I was asked by a fan, DLS why Jay appears to be in such a hurry to have children.
To DLS, it all seems pretty meaningless and not cool.
And he's absolutely entitled to his opinion on this matter.
However, Jay obviously does not feel that way, and for reasons, many of which the fans on JCD have mentioned in the comments on the post I wrote about this question.
This, however, is worthy of a post on its own which I shall get to, all in good time.
Keep watching this blog!
For now, I'm off to run my errands and attend Stefanie Sun's Kepler World Tour concert tonight at our new National Stadium.
She will be the first pop star to do so, pipping Jay to that honour.
Can't wait for 8 November and OPUS 2 though!
Cheerio!
