Recently, 'Little Hevavely King' of Taiwanese music, Jay Chou, became the spokesman for Panasonic GD55 mini phone. And to further stress the 'mininess' of the new phone, Jay was allowed to show off his 'magical' hand in this latest TV commercial.
According to the info given by Panasonic, the GD55 mini phone is currently the smallest tri-band phone available on the market. With a 7.7 X 4.3 X 1.69cm size, it is even smaller than a credit card.
To emphasis the phone's smallness, Panasonic's spokesman, Jay, deviate from his usually cool portray of the cool guy in his previous ads. Instead he was seen using the little GD 55 as part of his magic tools, and played magic tricks with the phone.
During the filming of the commercial, Jay performed his magic tricks without the help of any special effects, and got a perfect shoot the first time round. This gave an idea on how professional and talented Jay is, as a magician.
For all those fans who wants to have a further glimpse of Jay's magical powers, a VCD named "Jay's unstoppable Magical Powers" was also attached to the GD55 miniphone, for all those who purchased the phone. This VCD has footage taken during the filming of the commercial, the making of the commercial, and also have backstage footages, and interviews, hoping to make use of Jay's popularity to boost the handphone sales.
