Jay Chou, who is also focused on taking everyone around the world in his music videos, this time went directly to the destination that has never been reached on the host's travel wish list - the Marché aux Puces de Saint-Ouen flea market in Paris.
Santouan Flea Market
This second-hand market visited by Jay Chou and his friends Du Guozhang and others is actually the world's number one flea market and the origin of flea markets in the world.
from Mafengwo user @雪波儿
Its history can be traced back to 1884. Today, it is visited by 5 million people every year, making it the most famous, oldest and largest antique flea market in the world.
Because Saint-Ouan is so big, it is divided into 12 small markets, each specializing in different products. The one whose name appears directly in the trailer is the "Byron Market" which is closely related to art.

. The new album is called "The Greatest Work". Music created around the world's top artworks will definitely not be absent.

Back to Byron Market, this is an "art palace" with 220 stalls, specializing in various types of art works from all over the world since the 17th century: paintings, sculptures, ceramics, fabrics, etc. wait.
from Mafengwo user @雪波儿
Some people even say that visiting the entire Byron Market is equivalent to browsing half of the world's art history.
When I went shopping for this antique piano from 1872 worth more than 1 million euros, even though it said it was expensive, this piano still appeared on the promotional materials for the new song.
Paris Gare du Nord
Next, Jaylen , who did not want to buy a super expensive piano, said he would write songs at the train station, so the next stop was Paris Gare du Nord. The public piano in the station is free for everyone to use.
This unique Gare du Nord is one of the seven major train departure stations of the French National Railway (SNCF) in Paris. It is located in the 10th arrondissement in the north of Paris and contains a variety of railway transportation services and urban rails. Transportation services.

But the most attractive thing is of course the appearance of the station. The Gare du Nord was built in the early 1860s. The facade of the Gare du Nord includes a triumphal arch-style central pavilion and a small pavilion on each side. Built with lots of masonry.

Paris Opera House
Then comes the highlight of the King's move. In the first MV, the origin of the story is really chosen at the Paris Opera House.
The Paris Opera House, usually visited as a tourist attraction, is the largest lyric theater in the world, with a total area of 11,237 square meters. It is no exaggeration to describe it as "glorious".
The Opera House was designed by Charles Garnier in 1861. Its architecture perfectly combines several architectural forms such as ancient Greek and Roman colonnades, Baroque , etc. It is large-scale, exquisite and meticulous.

The masterpiece of musical master Andrew Lloyd Webber "The Phantom of the Opera " gives this building another kind of temperament besides its grandeur.

There is no doubt that this is a theater where paintings, marbles and gold ornaments complement each other. You will be amazed when you walk in it.

and there are many Easter eggs in the opera house. For example, when you enter the theater lobby, you will first see a sculpture of the goddess of art. She is the entrance to the French Ministry of Magic in "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 2".
