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

What Lin Jiajia is looking forward to most now is Zhou Yu's new song that will be released this weekend, which is also the finale of his new album.

As the last song of Zhou Yu's new album, it can be said that everyone's expectations are full. After all, the quality of the songs in Zhou Yu's new album is very high, not inferior to the songs he released before and the previous album.

Before, everyone thought that Zhou Yu was busy with film and television now, and he might be negligent in music or that this new album would be perfunctory to fans in order to rush the work.

But now, nine songs of the new album have been released, and each song is so beautiful and popular on the Internet. Everyone also knows that Zhou Yu put a lot of effort into this album. So this Sunday, the last song of Zhou Yu's new album will be released, and everyone is looking forward to it.

But now, the most heated discussion on the Internet is Zhou Yu's performance at the CCTV Mid-Autumn Festival Gala tonight. Now Zhou Yu's performance has ended, and the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala is almost over. The clip of Zhou Yu's performance at the gala tonight has gone viral online.

"Zhou Yu CCTV Mid-Autumn Festival Gala!"

"Zhou Yu Mid-Autumn Festival Gala new song!"

"Zhou Yu's new song Watch the Moon Rise!"

"Wen Shiyi's new song May We Live Long!"

"Zhou Yu has written another new song for Wen Shiyi!"

...

Entries like this are high on the hot search list, especially the hot searches related to Zhou Yu, the data directly exploded. Among them, the highest data is Zhou Yu's performance clip at CCTV Mid-Autumn Festival Gala tonight.

A video of several minutes was forwarded and liked crazily by everyone on the Internet, and the data continued to soar.

"Oh my god! After so long, I finally see Zhou Yu out again!"

"Yes, I saw Zhou Yu before, he was promoting movies and performing on stage. I haven't seen him for a long time."

"Alas, I feel that Zhou Yu has an idea of ​​slowly retreating behind the scenes. He is now either filming or directing. Although his career is getting better and better, I have less and less time to see him."

"Yes, after this time, I don't know how long it will take to see Zhou Yu again."

"Ahhh! Zhou Yu actually has two songs tonight, one for Wen Shiyi and one for himself, both are good!"

...

Everyone in the circle is also brushing tonight's hot searches. On major social platforms, most of the hot searches tonight are related to the Mid-Autumn Festival. But among them, Zhou Yu accounts for more than half of the most popular topics.

Even on the short video platform, the clips of Zhou Yu's performance at the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala tonight were edited by bloggers and forwarded and liked crazily on the short video platform, and the popularity was off the charts!

Seeing this scene, many artists and celebrities in the circle sighed and sighed.

Zhou Yu hasn't been in business for a long time, and he hasn't performed on stage for several months. But this time, as soon as he stepped on the stage to perform, the whole network exploded, and was flooded with hot searches and videos related to Zhou Yu.

Everyone knows that Zhou Yu is very popular and influential now, but no one expected that he could still be so popular after not being in business for so long!

"This guy is a monster!"

Many people in the circle are sighing, as if since Zhou Yu suddenly appeared in the entertainment industry last year, the entertainment industry seems to have been monopolized by him. Whether it is popularity or influence, Zhou Yu is leading by a cliff. As for those resources, haha, all kinds of top resources are begging to find Zhou Yu to cooperate. What Zhou Yu doesn't want, he gives it to the artists of his own company, and then his company selects it, and those who don't want it can be turned to other artists' companies.

There is no way, Zhou Yu has traffic and strength. The key is that the artists under his company are not nonsense vases, they are all very powerful, and it is natural to get these.

But other artists were still envious.

As for Zhou Yu, after the party, he didn't even stay for a moment and flew back to the crew. He was delayed for a day today, and he had to go back to film early tomorrow morning. Otherwise, the crew would stop working for a day, which would delay the filming progress and burn money.

It is now the end of September, and the filming progress of the whole drama has been completed by more than half. Zhou Yu is quite satisfied with the filming effect. When the first part is finished, the actors of the second part will be notified to join the crew. Both dramas must be filmed by the end of this year.

Soon it will be Sunday, which is also the day when the last song of Zhou Yu's new album will be released.

Lin Jiajia can't wait to wait in front of the computer. As soon as it is twelve o'clock, she will listen to the last song of Zhou Yu's new album.

Now, although the last song of Zhou Yu's new album has not been released, many people have been discussing the last song of Zhou Yu's new album on the Internet early this morning.

"What kind of song do you think will be the last song of Zhou Yu's new album?"

"Love song? Or rap? Or folk song or traditional Chinese style?"

"I'm not sure. Zhou Yu is good at so many styles of music that it's hard to guess."

"Indeed, instead of guessing here, it's better to wait until twelve o'clock and find out."

"Ah? It's already the last song of the new album. Alas, after this, I don't know how long it will take to hear Zhou Yu's new song."

"Yes, Zhou Yu's current focus is on film and television. After the new album is released, I don't know how long it will take."

…

Everyone has some expectations, but also some reluctance. They want to hear Zhou Yu's song that will be released at noon today, but they are also a little reluctant. After all, after listening to it, all the songs from Zhou Yu's new album have been released online. I don't know how long I have to wait to hear Zhou Yu's new songs again.

Therefore, everyone is a little conflicted in their hearts. They want to listen but are reluctant to listen.

And finally, at 12 noon, the last song of Zhou Yu’s new album arrived as promised.

Of course, it’s not just Zhou Yu who has new songs online today. Songs from Hu Weiwei and Lin Yi’s new albums are also online today. Today is the time for all the songs of Zhou Yu's new album to be released online, but it is not the time for the new albums of Hu Weiwei and Lin Yi to be completed. The completion of their new albums will have to wait until next week.

When Lin Jiajia saw that the time had reached twelve o'clock, she immediately opened Penguin Music and clicked on Zhou Yu's new song page.

Looking at the last song of Zhou Yu's new album released today, Lin Jiajia's expression trembled.

"This song title...Zhou Yu is so awesome!"

Regarding this song title, Lin Jiajia dares to say that no one else in the industry dares to choose such a song title.

Suppressing the excitement in her heart, Lin Jiajia couldn't wait to click play.

"Title: The Greatest Works

Vocals: Zhou Yu

Lyricist: Zhou Yu

Composer: Zhou Yu..."

Not only Lin Jiajia, but other fans also trembled in their hearts when they saw the title of the last song of Zhou Yu's new album.

The greatest work ever!

Just the name alone makes people feel excited.

The finale song of Zhou Yu's new album is called "The Greatest Work". Putting a song title here, it has already made countless netizens think of something.

Does Zhou Yu think this song is his greatest work?

Or is this just a song title?

But no one would have thought that the title of Zhou Yu's song would be an ordinary song title. Because among Zhou Yu's songs, the title of each song seems to have a specific meaning.

Even many people in the industry who are paying attention to Zhou Yu's new album were shocked when they saw the title of the last song of Zhou Yu's new album. At the same time, an idea came to my mind.

How dare Zhou Yu!

His greatest work, is this his self-affirmation of himself or his work?

But no matter how powerful you are, Zhou Yu, you shouldn't choose such a song title. No one dares to say that his or her work is the greatest, not even you, Zhou Yu.

But this is the fact. Zhou Yu seems to be the number one person in the Chinese music scene now. His works are all hits on the Internet without exception and are deeply loved by everyone. The key is that the songs composed by Zhou Yu have excellent lyrics and music. Many of them have been praised by the official media, and some have even been selected into university textbooks.

Doesn't this explain something?

"Haha, the greatest work can really make you look good. I want to see what's good about your song."

Some people in the circle were dissatisfied, thinking that Zhou Yu was arrogant and trying to put money on his own face. But what's more, it's the jealousy and lack of confidence in my heart.

Lin Jiajia had already clicked on the song. The fast-paced prelude sounded in her ears, and Lin Jiajia's expression trembled.

"Is this...a rap song?"

She was a little unsure, but listened carefully again and confirmed that the rhythm was indeed not like a slow ballad, but more like Zhou Yu's rap style song.

Sure enough, at the moment the prelude ended, Zhou Yu's singing sounded in Lin Jiajia's ears, confirming her own suspicion that this was a rap song.

"Brother is wearing a retro suit

Playing magic music with a cane

Stroll through Samaritan

A time renovated by the years

An empire with no borders in sight

A throne made of musical notes

I use the piano keys to travel through the immortality I missed in 1920..."

Lin Jiajia listened to Zhou Yu's singing, his "The Greatest Work", and looked at the lyrics, and her breathing became a little faster.

She herself didn't expect that there would be a rap song in Zhou Yu's new album. She had already released one before. She didn't expect that the final song would also be a rap song.

The key is that this song seems to have a deeper meaning and seems more crazy!

Just like the phrase "a throne built with notes", she seemed to see Zhou Yu who had reached the top of the Chinese music scene with music.

"Did Zhou Yu write this song for himself?"

Lin Jiajia suddenly had an idea in her mind. This song was written very wildly, but it was not quite like Zhou Yu's low-key style. But looking at these lyrics, I can't leave Zhou Yu in every sentence.

"Oh paranoia is that Magritte

The apple I transformed

Surreal is me

Or the clown he originally wanted to draw

A pipe that is not a pipe

The doves on my face did not fly away..."

Lin Jiajia listened to the lyrics and looked at the name of the person in the lyrics. If she remembered correctly, this seemed to be a great foreign artist.

The song is called "The Greatest Work". Is it because of the works of these artists mentioned in the lyrics? Rather than Zhou Yu's own work?

“Langishness is the most free and unrestrained ink painting among secular paintings.

Huadu’s elegant legs are a touch of the universe

The nostalgia of crossing the ocean is a kind of tenderness in nothingness

Only lonely branches can grow the flowers Sanyu wants..."

The song "The Greatest Work" brought by Zhou Yu this time is sung by Jay Chou, composed by Jay Chou himself, and written by Huang Junlang and Xie Di. It is included in Jay Chou's album of the same name "The Greatest Work" released on July 15, 2022.

In Jay Chou's childhood memories, the image of his mother painting while he played the piano was a fond memory of his childhood. His mother also told him many stories about artists. Combining arts such as painting and literature with music is a theme that Jay Chou really wants to create recently, so he composed the song "The Greatest Work". When creating the lyrics of this song, Huang Junlang and Xie Di wrote a lot of ingenuity in the lyrics. The entire lyrics are very sophisticated in connecting the spirit of the artist and his works through the "time and space traveler", and this song specially invited Chen Rui to play the violin Melodies to combine classical and pop.

Jay Chou also said that the song was conceived a few years ago, and the MV was shot before the lyrics were filled in. In addition to Xie Di providing the lyrics idea, Huang Junlang also discussed the lyrics with Jay Chou many times. Jay Chou, who demands perfection, even Huang Junlang was asked to go to his house to discuss the lyrics. When he felt sleepy, he would sleep at his house and continue the discussion when he woke up the next day. When Jay Chou was recording the vocals, Huang Junlang was still in the studio adjusting the lyrics in response to the change in singing style. In order to fully reflect the retro style, Jay Chou even went to the Paris Opera House to record vocals.

"The boat goes back and forth quietly

The coast of Matisse

night under the stars

Leave it to Van Gogh to ignite

Beautiful dreams are too short

Screaming on the Munch Bridge

The excitement in this world

Out of loneliness..."

Listening to it now, Lin Jiajia feels that the title of Zhou Yu's song "The Greatest Work" does not seem to refer to his works, but to the works of those artists mentioned in the song.

But she also felt that this song not only referred to the works of those artists, she felt that Zhou Yu also meant his own feelings. He felt that his works were also the greatest works ever!

"Huh? This piano part sounds great too!"

When the first chorus ended, the piano section in the middle gave Lin Jiajia a feeling of light up. This piece of piano seems to be played by two people, as if they are fighting the piano.

"The sunshine flowing through the garden

The fragrance of flowers sways in the air

I'm asking Monet for a favor

Can I take a self-portrait?

The master looks into the distance

Study the shapes of colors

Suddenly he turned around and asked me to tell you something

My impression of myself..." (End of Chapter)
