Taiwan pop king Jay Chou met fans in Hong Kong on Sunday to promote his new album Capricorn, sina.com reported.

The meet and greet in City Plaza, Kowloon, needed forty security guards to control the two thousand crazy fans. It was the first time in three years that Jay Chou made a re-comeback in Hong Kong with his new album.

When asked about his ex-girlfriend and TV hostess Patty Hou, Jay said they are still friends and he didn't feel embarrassed to meet her.

"She's quite generous anyway. We still contact and meet each other," he said.

"Capricorn," released earlier this month, has sold 887, 000 copies across Asia, according to sina.com's report.
