Answer 1

Jay Chou in fact did enter the Beijing Olympics theme song contest performance held in Beijing before the Olympics started.  It is called 千山万水 , you can watch it:

It is a really great song, however there were countless entries in the contest and most of them were almost equally as great!  Don't get me wrong, I am a really huge Jay Chou fan.

And personally, I think the Opening Ceremony had a pretty traditional theme.  But you should watch out for the Closing Ceremony on Sunday because I have a feeling that it is going to have a modern theme and it is rumored that Asian Americans Wang Leehom and Rain will be performing... so I wouldn't be surprised if Jay Chou also makes a scene!

Answer 2

Its the Olympics, not some Taiwanese baseball game.
