Despite the comparisons, Wenkai insists he’s not trying to mimic Jay’s style.
In an interview with Chinese media, he admitted that he’s tone-deaf and that his videos are simply a documentation of his everyday life.
He said: “The things that I wear and use [in my videos] are my actual farming essentials. I don’t take filming too seriously, I just want to show what simple farm life looks like.”
A self-proclaimed die-hard Jay Chou fan, Wenkai appreciates the support he’s received from fellow Jay supporters but remains grounded.
“Going viral was a pleasant surprise, but my priority is still farming and doing my job well,” he said.
His down-to-earth attitude has resonated with many, with fans commenting that he reminds them of Jay when he first debuted.
“He brings back memories from my youth,” wrote one netizen.
As Jay once said: “All the Jays in the ‘multiverse’ are out there striving to live their best lives and spreading positive energy.”
Wenkai plans to continue creating videos, and use it as a medium to spread happiness and warmth, while offering a glimpse into authentic farm life.
