I was rejected when I wrote a song, but I became a king on my debut

Zhou Yu has been resting at home these days, occasionally going out to participate in some activities, but he is not as tired as before. At the end of the month, he will attend the third rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala. In recent days, he has basically stayed in Zhonghai or traveled around several cities.

Work during the day, come back at night and live a shameless nightlife with Yang Qian.

And time flies, it is February 1st, and in three days it will be the Spring Festival. The number of people in the city has begun to decrease. Especially in international metropolises like Zhonghai City, there are many migrant workers. Every year when the Spring Festival comes, many outsiders return home to celebrate the New Year, which makes the city, which is originally very crowded on weekdays, become much emptier.

There are no more traffic jams during the evening rush hour and the morning rush hour.

And on February 1st, Zhou Yu’s company released a message, which started this month’s entertainment hot search discussion.

"Welcome Yang Zihan to join our big family! @Yang Zihan!"

It was just such a simple Weibo message, and it was not sent by Zhou Yu, but the news released by Zhou Yu's company Weibo, which has more than 5 million fans. In just half an hour, it rushed to the hot search list.

After all, this is Zhou Yu's company, relying on Zhou Yu's popularity and influence, it has gained the attention of 5 million fans. And this time, it was directly announced that Yang Zihan signed with Zhou Yu's company, and the topic was immediately popular.

"Oh my god! What did I see? Yang Zihan actually joined Zhou Yu's company?!"

"Oh my god! This is a successful star-chasing. When she was on Singer, I could see that Yang Zihan liked Zhou Yu very much. Now she has signed a contract with Zhou Yu's company. Her star-chasing dream has come true."

"It was rumored that Yang Zihan's contract with her original company was about to expire. Some fans were speculating whether she would choose to renew the contract or sign with another company. I didn't expect that she would go directly to Zhou Yu's company this time."

"It's good to go to Zhou Yu's company. Yang Zihan's original company was really not good. Moreover, she can become an artist under Zhou Yu. With Zhou Yu's help, her career will definitely go to the next level."

...

Everyone is not surprised that Zhou Yu's company signed a new artist. If an entertainment company doesn't sign artists, what's the point of using them?

What surprised everyone the most was that Yang Zihan, an idol singer who is currently on the rise, and whose popularity is not low, went directly to Zhou Yu's company. This is another great helper for Zhou Yu's company.

Besides, Zhou Yu's company has no female artists except Zhao Lei, Wang Jiachao and himself. This is the first time that Zhou Yu's company has signed a female artist.

The key is that Yang Zihan is still a fan of Zhou Yu. This is the envy of countless Zhou Yu's fans. When Yang Zihan was on "Singer", he showed the excitement and attitude that a fan should have in the show. Everyone can really see that Yang Zihan really likes Zhou Yu.

Now, after chasing stars, he has become an artist under his idol. The most important thing is that Zhou Yu will definitely release a new song for Yang Zihan in the future, and it is a song written by Zhou Yu himself, which is what everyone is most looking forward to.

"With Zhou Yu as the boss, Yang Zihan's future career will definitely rise. Don't you think Zhao Lei and Wang Jiachao are like this?"

"Indeed, Zhou Yu is very good at promoting people. Any song he writes will make him popular."

"I am beginning to look forward to the new song Zhou Yu will write for Yang Zihan. Haha, hurry up and release the new song."

...

When other artists in the circle saw this scene, their expressions were also a bit complicated. Especially those artists who are not very famous and neither up nor down. Seeing Yang Zihan enter Zhou Yu's company, they were also envious.

Nowadays, there is a tacit rule in the circle, that is, if Zhou Yu can write a song for you, you will definitely become popular and take your career to a higher level. This is why many artists have to ask Zhou Yu to write songs for them.

But no one has succeeded, and even offered a high price to Zhou Yu to invite him to write songs, but it depends on his mood.

So far, Zhou Yu has not helped others except for writing songs for people around him.

So now, many artists saw that Yang Zihan directly entered Zhou Yu's company, which made other artists who were not developing very well and were exploited by the company envy Yang Zihan even more.

Being able to enter Zhou Yu's company means that Zhou Yu is optimistic about it, and he will definitely be trained by Zhou Yu in the future. New songs and various resources can be obtained.

As for why Zhou Yu's company has just started and has been established for less than a year, it can get so many top resources. That is because of the influence brought by Zhou Yu himself. He is now at the top of the circle, so the top resources will be found in Zhou Yu first. And Zhou Yu, after getting these resources, will also give them to other artists in the company. Or, Zhou Yu will push these resources to other artists in his company.

And those investors, in order to cooperate with Zhou Yu in the future, will basically give Zhou Yu this face. The key is that the artists of Zhou Yu's company have developed very well. If they can't invite Zhou Yu, then they can invite first-line artists like Zhao Lei and Wang Jiachao.

On Zhou Yu's company side, this is the day when Yang Zihan officially came to the company to join.

Ning Wanqiu had taken her here before. Although it was a newly established company, it was very large in scale. In addition to having the necessary public relations department and human resources department for an entertainment company, Yang Zihan also saw the film and television department, music department, lyrics and composition department. Although they are all newly established, you can still see the ambitions of your idols.

Zhou Yu has also recruited a lot of talents, such as the lyrics and composition department, which means he has recruited some talented employees. After all, he won’t be able to do it himself in the future. It’s time to train some talented young people to provide songs for the company’s artists in the future.

Yang Zihan and her agent came together, and Zhou Yu also arranged their own offices for them in the company.

After the simple welcome ceremony, Zhou Yu held a meeting with the heads of various departments.

"The music department and the lyrics and composition department are trying to produce a few hit songs this year. New artists will definitely join the company in the future. I can't write songs for them all the time, so it will be up to you at that time."

The heads of the three departments nodded solemnly. In fact, they were said to be three departments. In fact, strictly speaking, it was just a music department. It was just that Zhou Yu separated the two departments of lyrics and music separately.

Zhou Yu looked at the person in charge of the film and television department: "This year we will focus on film and television. Bad Guys Animation and Tiangang Legend. You are responsible for connecting with Penguin and Yang Qian Company. As for the others, , I will start planning a new movie after the year, so you guys have to prepare well."

"Okay boss."

Everyone is very motivated, and everyone can see the ambition of the boss regarding some of the plans made by Zhou Yu and the company. Most people in the company are young people, full of fighting spirit for the future.

After the meeting, Zhou Yu met Yang Zihan.

Yang Zihan was still as excited as ever when he saw his idol. Especially now that she has come to the idol's company again, and she has also heard that idols solved many of the problems she had with the original company.

"Sit down, Zihan, don't be nervous."

Yang Zihan sat on the sofa in Zhou Yu's office. Zhou Yu handed Yang Zihan a new song he had prepared for her and said.

"This is a new song prepared for you. Get familiar with it, record the song, and find a suitable time to release it after the year."

Yang Zihan looked at the new song handed over by Zhou Yu, with some excitement and surprise on her pretty face. She didn't expect that her idol had prepared all the new songs for her just after she came here today.

Before even seeing what the new song was like, Yang Zihan spoke excitedly.

"Teacher Zhou Yu, don't worry, I will definitely practice this song well!"

Zhou Yu also found it funny to see the little girl so excited. It seems that Yang Zihan is only one year younger than him, so it is quite strange to keep calling him Teacher Zhou Yu.

"I'm only one year older than you, so you don't need to call me teacher. If you don't mind, you can just follow that guy Zhao Lei and call me brother."

Yang Zihan nodded excitedly, with a sweet smile on his pretty face.

"Okay Brother Yu."

"That's okay. Just go back and familiarize yourself with the songs. I've been on more shows recently to increase my exposure and popularity."

After chatting with Yang Zihan, Zhou Yu also smiled when he saw Yang Zihan carefully walking away with the new song. It seems that it is quite good to have female artists in the company, especially a sweet and sexy female artist like Yang Zihan, who is eye-catching just to look at.

And today is not only February 1st, but also Monday of a new week. There are still three days of Spring Festival, and before that, there is the final new song PK between Zhou Yu and Zhang Junjie that everyone is most looking forward to.

At ten o'clock this morning, Zhou Yu posted a message on Weibo.

"The new song will be online at 12 noon today."

There was also a picture of a playground below, which immediately got everyone thinking about it, and they all began to guess the type of Zhou Yu's new song this time.

"What type do you think Zhou Yu's new song is?"

"I saw that Zhou Yu posted a picture of the playground. Is it related to campus love?"

"It feels a bit similar, otherwise why would Zhou Yu match this photo?"

"Then I'll start looking forward to it, tsk tsk tsk, Zhou Yu's modern love songs are famous for their good songs, and they're also about campus love. I'm looking forward to it."

"Haha, I'm looking forward to it too. Zhou Yu has written many such songs before, including Dandelion's Promise, all of high quality."

…

For a while, Zhou Yu's new song hadn't been released yet, and the discussion on the Internet continued to soar.

"Preview of Zhou Yu's new song!"

“Guess the type of Zhou Yu’s new song!”

…

This type of entry is high on the hot search list. Even Zhang Junjie became a little curious after seeing Zhou Yu's Weibo and commented on Zhou Yu's Weibo.

"Why don't you tell me about the new song privately?"

Not long after it was posted, Zhang Junjie’s reply was liked by netizens. After Zhou Yu saw it, he also interacted with Zhang Junjie in the comment area.

"Ahem, keep a sense of mystery and expectation. You will be surprised when you hear it later."

Netizens sided with Zhang Junjie this time, and even Zhou Yu's own fans also spoke out.

"No, Zhou Yu, can't you say it clearly? My Brother Jie has already asked you, so please tell me quickly, otherwise I will listen to Brother Jie's new song later."

"Actually, what Brother Jie said is what we want to know. Brother Yu, please quickly reveal the type of new song."

"I'm telling you, don't force me. Zhou Yu, just be honest and tell me, or I'll stop being your fan in 30 seconds."

...

Zhou Yu and Zhang Junjie's competition started with the first new song, and they were happy and didn't look like rivals at all. The fans of the two groups got along well, but there were some frictions, but overall it was okay.

This is the last match between Zhou Yu and Zhang Junjie. As everyone knows, this is Zhang Junjie's third new single, and there will be no new songs after that. If you want to hear Zhang Junjie's new song again, you don't know how long you have to wait.

The key is that the competition between Zhou Yu and Zhang Junjie is also the last one. Zhou Yu won a game before, which made some of Zhang Junjie's fans think that Zhou Yu was only temporarily ahead. This time they also want to see if Zhou Yu can still win and if Zhang Junjie can maintain his position.

Lin Jiajia couldn't help but smile knowingly when she saw the interaction between Zhou Yu and Zhang Junjie on Weibo. The good relationship between the two of them also made their fans feel very comfortable. After all, Lin Jiajia likes both Zhou Yu and Zhang Junjie. Zhou Yu is her favorite idol now, and Zhang Junjie is Lin Jiajia who grew up listening to their songs.

However, looking at the playground picture Zhou Yu posted on his Weibo, Lin Jiajia was a little curious.

"The new song is most likely a campus song, but I don't know which one it belongs to."

Is it a sweet little love song, or a sad and tear-jerking bitter song?

Looking at the time, there is still more than an hour before noon today, and Lin Jiajia feels a little anxious.

"Forget it, let's order takeout at this time."

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and she will rush back to her hometown to celebrate the New Year tomorrow. Today, she listened to Zhou Yu and Zhang Junjie's new songs and made videos. She will wait for a few days of rest during the Chinese New Year.

When the clock struck twelve at noon, Lin Jiajia directly clicked into the Penguin Music interface, and the beginning was the recommendation of Zhou Yu and Zhang Junjie's new songs.

"It seems that Penguin still prefers Zhou Yu."

Although the recommendations of the two seem to be the same, Lin Jiajia found that Penguin Music ranked Zhou Yu ahead of Zhang Junjie in the recommendations of these times. It must be said that Zhou Yu cooperated exclusively with Penguin Music, and the resources he obtained were different from those of other singers.

But this is understandable, after all, exclusive copyright cooperation means that he is one of them.

And Zhou Yu is currently cooperating more and more with Penguin, not only in music, but also in film and television. For example, the animation "Bad People" that Zhou Yu cooperated with Penguin Video is currently Zhou Yu's cooperation with Penguin, and it has directly become the number one in Chinese animation.

So, the resources and treatment that Penguin gives Zhou Yu are much better than other artists.

Lin Jiajia looked at Zhou Yu's new song recommendation page, and for a moment she hesitated about whose new song she should listen to first today.

This is the last competition between Zhang Junjie and Zhou Yu. After that, Zhang Junjie will probably not release new songs for a long time. So today is the last time to hear Zhang Junjie's new song in a long period of time.

After a little hesitation, Lin Jiajia clicked on Zhang Junjie's new song page.

Well, there must be more new songs from Zhou Yu, after all, he will be on the Spring Festival Gala in two days. So after hesitating for a while, Lin Jiajia decided to listen to Zhang Junjie's new song first.

"Back to the past..."

Looking at the title of Zhang Junjie's new song, Lin Jiajia clicked on the play without hesitation, and the soothing melody sounded. The first sound was the sound of an old wind chime, accompanied by the faint sound of cicadas, which seemed to pull people back to that green years.

Memories of youth always appear in summer, and the prelude of Zhang Junjie's new song also highlights the theme of summer better.

Lin Jiajia listened to the prelude and was also the kind of person who was brightened.

"Another prelude killer!"

Songs like this that can catch people's ears just by listening to the prelude are definitely prelude killers.

Just relying on the prelude melody, it can make people want to continue listening.

As the prelude melody ended, Zhang Junjie's voice rang in Lin Jiajia's ears, soothing and gentle, with a strong sense of memory.

At the end of the song, after listening to Zhang Junjie's new song, Lin Jiajia took a long time to slowly come out of the song. There was a feeling of emptiness in her heart. This song was a memory of youth and a regret...

"As expected of Zhang Junjie, this song "Back to the Past" is very good!"

Lin Jiajia has also listened to a lot of such songs. Zhou Yu's songs before also had similar songs, and the quality was very high. After listening to Zhang Junjie's new song, Lin Jiajia felt that it was also very nice, and it was really not bad compared to Zhou Yu's previous songs of this type.

"The quality of this last song is still so high."

The quality of each of Zhang Junjie's three new songs is online, and there is no perfunctory situation at all. Even though Zhang Junjie released a new song after three years, his attitude towards music was not slack at all.

"It's time to listen to Zhou Yu's new song."

After launching the page of Zhang Junjie's new song, Lin Jiajia found the recommended page of Zhou Yu's new song and clicked in.

"Waiting for you to finish class..."

Looking at the title of Zhou Yu's song, Lin Jiajia also smiled. Judging from the title of this song, it is similar to the playground picture Zhou Yu posted before. It is a campus love song, which can be seen from the title of "Waiting for you to finish class".

This suddenly made Lin Jiajia look forward to it. Zhou Yu's creation of such songs is very amazing. Zhou Yu's previous songs, with simple lyrics and melodies, can evoke people's memories of those young and frivolous years, and can also touch people's hearts.

This time Zhou Yu and Zhang Junjie's new songs are both modern love songs, the genres are similar, it just depends on whose song is more touching.

Clicking play, when the melodious prelude melody sounded, the soothing and relaxing guitar playing seemed to lay out a beautiful picture of youth story for the audience.

The prelude of Zhou Yu's song instantly caught Lin Jiajia's ears. She stared at the lyrics page, quietly waiting for Zhou Yu to sing.

"In the alley where you live

I rented an apartment

Because I want to meet you unexpectedly

Why did I do this during my three years in high school?

Why don't you study hard?

I didn’t get into the same university as you…”

Zhou Yu's singing sounded in Lin Jiajia's ears. The gentle rhythm and Zhou Yu's deep singing gradually unfolded a beautiful picture of youth in Lin Jiajia's mind. Looking at the lyrics, a beautiful secret love story emerged in my mind. For a while, Lin Jiajia gradually fell into the story described in the lyrics.

"I found a job

Very close to your dormitory

When I started to learn how to make egg cakes

I just realized you didn’t eat breakfast…”

Listening to Zhou Yu's new song, Lin Jiajia has a very relaxed and happy feeling. The cautiousness and caution of secret love, as well as the expectations for the girl he likes, are vividly expressed by Zhou Yu through simple and unpretentious lyrics.

"A very refreshing song."

This is Lin Jiajia's inner thought at the moment. This song is a song that expresses the male protagonist's secret love for the female protagonist. There is no expression of depressed love songs. From word to word, he only revealed his cautious secret love for the girl.

Simple and unpretentious, beautiful yet moving.

"Oh, you passed me by again

What do you listen to in your headphones?

Can you tell me..."

As the tempo gradually accelerated, Lin Jiajia knew that the song had reached the chorus.

"Lie on your school playground and watch the stars.

The lights in the classroom are still on and you haven't left yet

Remember the love letter I wrote to you

What era is it now?

I’m still writing until now…”

The new song "Waiting for You After Class" released by Zhou Yu this time is a song written and composed by Jay Chou and co-sung by Yang Ruidai. This song was released as a single on January 18, 2018, and was later included in Jay Chou's album "The Greatest Works" released on July 15, 2022.

This song is from Jay Chou. After he released the album "Jay Chou's Bedside Stories", he has been busy with concert preparations and tours and has no time to release new songs.

He immediately returned to the room where he was staying, picked up the guitar and played the melody. Write this song "Waiting for you to finish class".

This song comes from a story that Jay Chou came up with. It imagines a young man who has a crush on a girl and regrets that he did not study well and was not admitted to the same university as her. In order to wait for her to finish class, he rents a house near the girl's residence and waits for her silently. , playing the piano and writing love letters, I just want to convey my feelings to her, but I can't find the time or method. Jay Chou invited his friend Yang Ruidai, a recording engineer who grew up with him, to sing together because Jay Chou felt that Yang Ruidai's youthful voice was quite suitable.
