I'm new to ft. I have a few questions.
1. How many times should I work on specific muscle. From ft I guess abs need short time to recover, 1-2 days once is good. Chest need maybe 5-7 days. Is this right? And what about shoulder, arm, back and leg?
2. Maybe I should work on chest once a week, should I concentrate on upper(or bottom) part or should I distribute my energy evenly to upper, bottom, outer and inside part befor I exaust my self?
3. I have some fat on my abs. I want to burn those fat out but in the mean time I want to bulk up my upper body(like chest, shoulder and back). So what should I do? I assume I should do a lot cardio, cut calories, take more protein and train upper body muscle with heavy weight. Correct?

Well, you can train specific muscle groups more than once per week. I would suggest signing up for an ft mass program and let ft determine your exercise regimen for each muscle group...including your abs.
Welcome to ft, BTW!

Log in, sign up, do what ever you have to, to get FT to design a program for you. It rocks! It doesn't seem like much (as compared to some of the programs out there )but let me tell that it does work.

Isolate a muscle group once a week, with exercies like squats and deadlifts your going to be using all your muscles. Lift heavy and isolate specific muscle groups once a week to ensure your muscles are fully rebuilding.

I would suggest the mass building program and an ab routine with the proper diet. Take advantge of the compund muscle building exercises designed by the peeps here at ft. Work in some cardio and track all your progress, diet, calories, weight, ect.
You will have to figure out what combos work the best for you, meaning how much cardio, what type of nutrition, also weight training to get your physique where you w ant it. (meaning to bulk and cut)
GOOD LUCK!
