Answer: approx. NT$540,000
This is a far cry from the movie's production cost of NT$800 million! He felt disappointed with the box office result after much effort on his part to shed his usual image by gaining weight, grew a stubble and hair overhaul. Even, vowing that he'll not do another action movie again due to the dangerous stunts.
Whilst "The Viral Factor" is not performing well despite the above average ratings by movie critics, Vic Chou's & Ella Chen's "The Perfect Two" is doing fairly well, earning NT$1.92million on the same day it premiered with "The Viral Factor".
Have you seen any of the movies?

Ohhh, that's pretty disappointing.
Ooh, that's gotta sting. Let's hope that the second week does better.
wooow dang tht sucks :/
I hate the thought that all of his work went to waste :/
I'm so sad for jay Chou, but really, he can't have it all! Maybe his relationship with Hannah Quinlivan is such a bad PR move
dude , i want that kind of money !!
.... now , jay chou looks rrrrreeeeeeaaaaaaaallllllllyyyyyyyy different !! ><
Dang...all that hard work and not wanting to do action movies anymore...he did all his own stunts and it got him that? That sucks....a lot...
hmmm sorry to hear that :/
Wow, and where does all that hard work go?
...I'm sorry, Jay, but I didn't see your movie yet. =.=
feeling sorry for his hard work
poor jay i feel -_- sorry for him and the fact he regreted doing the action movie!
Ew... that's a really big difference... lost some money on that one, I suppose. Too bad.
awww poor jay T.T
Sometimes you can't predict how well a movie will do...hope he continues to act though!
What a huge gap D: The movie was nice though. I do wanna see Jay act in a comedy movie... *imagines*
Awwww
That's too bad.
800,000,000NT$ ---> $28,000,000 US. Anyway, a failure that bad usually has to do with whoever produced/is promoting it, assuming that it was a normal release to begin with.
woww, that is a huge amount of money..
Serious?? 540,000 is to 800,000,000?!?!
will he really never do an action movie again?
