1. Exactly how many times larger is Japan's population compared to Hong Kong's population? (126 million / 7 million = 18 times) So it would be more like 720k vs. 650k. Plus, you're comparing a live and a studio album.
2. His last Mandarin album was released in 2005 so unless you had access to that data...and the last time I checked, he was the 2nd HK artist that won Most Popular Male in Taiwan's Golden Melody Awards (Chinese Grammys)
Yes. However, even BoA's concerts aren't 100% live. (They're like ~90%?)

1. I think Uranus meant "Life Continues" sold 40,000 copies. Because I have read the newspaper and they showed the sales of the albums that were released in 2006 and Eason's album was ranked 2nd yearly. "Get a Life" was a live album and sold less than 5,000 copies in HK as it was no where in the yearly ranking.
2. His last Mandarin album "How?" was released in November of 2005 and it did poorly as it was off the ranking in two weeks after it was released. Ken Hirai's album was released the same week and debuted at #2 and stayed on the ranking for a long time. It obviously sold more than Eason's album. So I guess that's where his jealousy of JPOP singers come from. Of course, that's probably just one of the reasons.
