Career

Jack Wu later participated in the singing competition at the fire station party and eventually won the championship. A few months later, he received encouragement from his mother and was attracted by the car prize, so in 1996, with Daniel Chan’s song "Knowing Everything About You" 《了解你的所有》 he went to Hong Kong Cultural Center in Tsim Sha Tsui to participate in the Big Echo Summer Karaoke Competition hosted by Go East Entertainment, winning the championship and signed as a singer under Warner Music Hong Kong.{{noteTag|關於胡諾言就讀中學時和參加歌唱比賽經過的資料出自香港電台第二台廣播節目《守下留情》於2019年3月19日播出的胡諾言訪問。}}

In 1997, Jack Wu released his solo album One Promise as a "Boy Next Door" 「鄰家男孩」 for the first time. Although the song 《一個諾言》increased his fame, the sales of the album did not meet expectations. Later, he was transformed into "Fat Boy" 「肥男孩」. Unfortunately, due to piracy issues, his development was not as good as expected.

Finally, in 2000, he became a TVB managerial artist contract. Before Jack Wu's transformation, Warner Music Hong Kong released another album for him, 《愛玩火》, and arranged for him to go to Australia to shoot a music video for the song 《無重狀態》. Lau Lai Ping (Apple姐), chairman of the board of directors and boss of BIG ECHO I-BOX, knew that Jack Wu had worked hard to develop his singing career, so she suggested that he find another way out by becoming an artist at TVB.

{{noteTag|關於胡諾言當上歌手經過的資料出自香港電台第二台廣播節目《守下留情》於2019年3月20日播出的胡諾言訪問。}}At first, he mainly served as a tv host and participated in travel specials. Later, because he wanted to develop in many aspects, he recommended himself to the producer Leung Choi Yuen to film his first TV series Lost in Love. After being recommended to other TV station producer by Leung Choi Yuen, Jack Wu began to participate in more TV series. In 2003, he was assigned by Tommy Leung Ka Shu to play a relatively important role in Net Deception. In 2006, he joined the hosting team of Scoop.{{noteTag|關於胡諾言加入電視台後動向的資料出自香港電台第二台廣播節目《守下留情》於2019年3月21日播出的胡諾言訪問。}}

Although Jack Wu has never become a first-line artist, he still has a certain degree of popularity. In 2012, he was selected as the most diverse artist by China Mainland Network. In 2014, he played the leading role for the first time in the live-action drama Shades of Life. In 2018, he and Sharon Chan were invited to serve as hosts of Cantopop At 50 (流行經典50年), replacing Raymond Cho and Karen Tong.

In addition, due to his love for marathon running, Jack Wu formed "Crazy Runner" (one of the cliques in the HK Entertainment Industry){{Cite web |title=5 Cliques in the HK Entertainment Industry That You May Have Heard About – JayneStars.com |url=https://www.jaynestars.com/news/5-cliques-in-the-hk-entertainment-industry-that-you-may-have-heard-about/ |access-date=2024-05-06 |language=en-us}}{{Cite web |title=存档副本 |url=https://orientaldaily.on.cc/cnt/entertainment/20180224/mobile/odn-20180224-0224_00282_027.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200908010007/https://orientaldaily.on.cc/cnt/entertainment/20180224/mobile/odn-20180224-0224_00282_027.html |archive-date=2020-09-08 |access-date=2020-09-07 |url-status=live}} with his friends Joel Chan, Benjamin Yuen, Brian Tse and the girls of the "Nonsense Club" (胡說八道會) Nancy Wu, Paisley Wu, Elaine Yiu, Selena Lee and Mandy Wong.
