My Songwriting Was Rejected, But I Became A Superstar

The first time, the second time.

Chapter 69 Dandelion’s Promise

On the stage, Zhou Yu held the microphone and the music sounded. The melody was still so popular. Just the moment the prelude sounded, a faint sense of sadness filled people’s hearts. Zhao Lei’s eyes lit up. Brother Yu was really good. Every song he sang could capture people’s hearts at the first time.

Li Xingyu and Lin Hao looked at each other. They actually knew in their hearts and admitted that Zhou Yu was good.

But…

Looking at Zhou Yu on the stage, they were very conflicted. They wanted to suppress Zhou Yu and want to win Zhou Yu. But they didn’t want Zhou Yu to be suppressed by the company, because once Zhou Yu was oppressed by the company, he would waver in his inner thoughts and join the company behind them, and then the company’s resources would have to be shared with Zhou Yu.

And…

They are not fools. At this critical moment, the company spent so much effort to find Zhou Yu, and even used some means to force Zhou Yu to submit. That means that Zhou Yu is very important in the company’s view, even more important than the two of them.

Once Zhou Yu joined the company, the company would most likely tilt all its resources to Zhou Yu, and then he would no longer be the only ace trainee. This champion, the position of debut and the resources are probably out of his reach.

Li Xingyu and Lin Hao were in mixed feelings.

On the stage, Zhou Yu spoke slowly.

“The dandelions beside the fence of the elementary school

are the scenery with flavor in my memory

The sound of cicadas came from the playground during the nap

It still sounds good after many years…”

Zhou Yu’s voice was slightly hoarse, and as soon as he spoke, he seemed to be brought into the story. Combined with the sadness of the lyrics and the music, the faint sadness permeates my heart. The phrase “Dandelions by the fence of the primary school” instantly pulls people into memories.

It seems to bring people back to that carefree time, in that afternoon when the cicadas are chirping, the sun is shining, the breeze is warm, you lie on the table in the classroom, can’t sleep, staring at the sycamore tree outside the window…

Wen Shiyi and the others have bright eyes. Zhou Yu’s songs are getting better and better, and every song is full of memories.

“Make a wish into a paper airplane and send it as a letter

Because we can’t wait for that shooting star

Take the coin that determines fate seriously

But I don’t know where I can go…”

The song Zhou Yu brought this time is a classic song sung by Jay Chou, written by Fang Wenshan, composed by Jay Chou himself, and arranged by Michael Lin. It is included in Jay Chou’s eighth album “I’m Busy” released on November 2, 2007.

This song is about Jay Chou’s middle school years and his first love. There is a very interesting fence garden behind Tamkang Middle School where he attended junior high school. Jay Chou wrote this song specifically for this. The inspiration for the creation came from S.E.N.S’s “In the Brilliant Season”, and it first appeared as an interlude in the movie “Secret” directed and acted by Jay Chou.

This song “Dandelion’s Promise” is a traditional Jay Chou love song, continuing Jay Chou’s previous style and singing a lot of first love feelings. Even after many years, it is still a classic, a song that makes countless people want to cry when they hear it. The piano chokes and the cello hums, singing the pain of separation, the melancholy of love leaving, and the feelings of love are too deep. And this song has also become one of the models of campus songs, and this song is also Jay Chou’s voice.

Jay Chou once said: “I hope to find someone who can travel with me.”

Obviously, he has found it now.

Zhou Yu also likes this song very much. Many of the songs he sings are his favorite songs. He wants to bring these classic songs to this world so that more people can know them.

“The promise to grow up together

I believe that it was so clearly ticked

We promised to travel together

It is your only stubbornness now…”

Zhou Yu’s tone was much higher, and Wen Shiyi and Yang Qian’s eyes were already a little dazed. Listening to Zhou Yu’s singing, it seemed to pull them back to their childhood, as if they saw a beautiful campus romance.

This is also the reason why Zhou Yu’s songs are so popular. In his songs, you can always find a lot of things in your life, or things that everyone has experienced. For example, the song “Dandelion’s Promise” he brought this time describes the youth.

, that innocent and ignorant age, a warm campus romance.

Everyone has experienced such a period. When it comes to youth, everyone thinks of the campus period, and when it comes to campus, everyone thinks of youth.

Especially Zhou Yu’s unique voice, as if with some kind of magic, makes the audience unable to extricate themselves and go deep into the story described in the song, as if they were experiencing the story in person. Or, in the story described in the song, they saw their own shadow.

“Standing in the corridor and hitting the palm of the hand

We pay attention to the dragonfly by the window

You follow me closely wherever I go

Many dreams are waiting to be carried out…”

Director Jiang Dan and the staff on the scene also stared at Zhou Yu’s performance on the stage. At this moment, they seemed to see themselves in their student days, being naughty and punished. For those who hate school, perhaps this is not a punishment, and even being able to stand with the person they like is a reward.

Sister Lin and Xiaoqin were also fascinated by the song. They seemed to see the boy and girl who liked each other in their youth, standing together outside the classroom as punishment. But the two of them were secretly playing around. Inside was the teacher’s teaching voice, outside was the cicadas chirping, the sun was shining, and the feelings of youth were so pure…

“The promise to grow up together

I believe that it was so clearly ticked

We promised to travel together

It is the only willfulness you insist on now…”

Zhou Yu’s voice became higher and higher, and the sadness of parting became stronger and stronger, which made people feel distressed. Sometimes, playmates and friends who played well together in childhood gradually lost contact as they grew up. Zhou Yu’s singing voice interpreted the feelings of this song affectionately and sincerely. The hoarseness and sobbing repeatedly expressed reluctance and regret.

“The promise to grow up together

So sincere

The past that I can’t finish talking about with you

And I can’t tell

Are you friendship or missed love…”

After the song ended, many people were immersed in memories and stories for a long time and couldn’t come back to their senses.

After a long moment, Teacher Chen Mo took a deep breath and took the initiative to applaud Zhou Yu. The students at the scene also stood up and applauded him.

Zhou Yu is an opponent, but he is also an insurmountable mountain in the hearts of many students. Putting aside his position, Zhou Yu’s songs are really good.
