This year alone he's won 58 awards.

He's been awarded the accolades of best Asian male singer, best songwriter in Taiwan, Hong Kong and China (to name just a few) and has appeared on the cover of Time. But for Chou, "Sales are more important than awards." Not bad for a 27-year-old from Linkou.

The release last week of Chou's sixth album, November's Chopin was awaited by millions. Sony BMG is already pleased with the album's pre-sales, 1.5 million in Asia.

Jay plans to tour Japan in June, and is considering playing in England. Maybe he will decide to hire an English teacher, but then again he doesn't need to tap into the English-speaking market.

With an average 3 million sales per album in China alone, and lucrative Pepsi and Panasonic contracts as icing on the commercial cake, his English skills are irrelevant.
