After eating a bowl of noodle soup while fighting, Chu Qingqiu took the initiative to take on the task of washing the dishes.
Zhou Ziwu, on the other hand, was like an old man, lying comfortably on the sofa and scrolling through his mobile phone.
"By the way, Zhou Zhiwu."
Chu Dahu's voice came from the kitchen.
"Um?"
Zhou Ziwu didn't even raise his head, and responded with a hum.
"Tara, Tara."
The sound of slippers was getting closer and closer, and Zhou Ziwu suddenly felt a chill on his face, and a few drops of water were bounced onto his face.
Looking up, he saw Chu Dahu retracting his sinful little hand.
"What's wrong?"
It looked like she had something to do with her.
"It's Sister Shi Yue who has something to ask you. She asked me to talk to you."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ziwu put down the phone, sat up straight, and asked curiously: "Doesn't she have my contact information? Why didn't she tell me directly?"
"She wanted to ask you for a song date. She was probably afraid that you wouldn't agree, so she found me."
Chu Qingqiu sat down next to him and said: "She has come to me several times, but I never told you. Today she comes to me again, and I can't help it."
"It sounds like you don't want me to write a song for her." Zhou Ziwu said amusedly: "Is it because she snatched your best female singer, so you are resentful?"
Chu Qingqiu rolled her eyes at him, "Of course it's not because of this, I just..."
Speaking of this, she suddenly felt a little shy, "After all, she and I are both female singers. If she can sing, so can I, so..."
"So you want me to write the song first, and if the quality is good, you can sing it, and if it's not good, let her sing it?"
Zhou Ziwu helped her complete the second half of the sentence.
"Fuck you." Chu Qingqiu hit him lightly, "Am I so dark inside? Besides, can your writing be of poor quality?"
The sudden compliment from Chu Dahu made Zhou Ziwu feel quite happy.
He smiled and nodded, accepting all her compliments.
As if not seeing his triumphant look, Chu Qingqiu continued to talk about his thoughts.
"I'm just afraid that when I see a good singer, I won't be able to help but want to stay. When the time comes, you will be sandwiched between me and Sister Shi Yue. You will feel uncomfortable, and I will feel uncomfortable too."
Zhou Ziwu can actually understand her thoughts.
As a singer, it is indeed a bit "cruel" to see a song that suits you but can't sing it, and to give it to others.
But this is not a problem at all for him.
He leaned on the sofa again, took her head in his arms, and the two of them cuddled together. He said in a relaxed tone: "This is easy to handle. At worst, I will write two poems at a time and let you choose first, and give the rest to Sister Shi Yue. How about it?"
?”
"real?"
"certainly."
…
The next day, 12 noon.
Inside the hotel.
Shi Yue, who was lying on the bed, moved his eyelids, then slowly opened them.
She sat up, feeling the hunger and physical fatigue that came almost at the same time, and shook her head with a wry smile.
The fatigue caused by dancing and singing at a concert was not completely removed after sleeping.
After all, he is not young anymore.
I found my mobile phone under the pillow, turned on the screen, and saw several Fetion messages.
In an instant, her eyes widened, the hunger in her belly and the fatigue in her body disappeared, leaving only excitement.
On the screen was a message from Zhou Ziwu.
[Sister Shi Yue, I have written a song for you, please see if you are satisfied with it.]
[document]
[And Sister Shi Yue, next time you ask for a song, just come to me directly. Can I still refuse you? 】
Although he was happy, Shi Yue did not click on the file at the first time, but replied to the message first.
[It’s a deal! Next time I’ll come to you directly, and you won’t be able to shirk it then [呲呲]]
[But why did you send all the documents directly? Aren’t you afraid that I won’t pay you?]
[Haha, just kidding, I just had a concert yesterday. I’m not short of money, so feel free to make an offer! 】
Three messages were sent, but Zhou Ziwu did not reply for the time being.
The anticipation in her heart could no longer be suppressed, and she quickly clicked on the document he sent.
"Crazy for love."
She softly read out the title of the song Zhou Ziwu wrote for herself.
Then, she looked at the simplified music score on the screen, and after silently reviewing it in her mind, she began to try singing a cappella.
"I came from spring."
"You said you wanted to separate in the autumn."
"I promised not to worry about you."
"..."
The more she sang, the brighter her eyes became.
Having been in the music scene for more than ten years, she can make her own judgment on many songs after just listening to them.
She has already had her own criteria for judging the quality of songs.
For a song, she divides it into four levels.
Average quality.
Songs that are popular but difficult to achieve elegance are commonly known as saliva songs.
Highbrow.
And this song "Crazy for Love" undoubtedly belongs to the last category: a song with good sales and good reputation.
She was once again amazed by Zhou Ziwu's talent.
What’s even more terrifying is that maybe he wrote a song of such quality in one night!
Of course, it could not be ruled out that it was his inventory, but she still preferred the first possibility.
One minute on stage, ten years of hard work off stage.
Many times, it is not uncommon for songs that are released today to be backlogged in the hands of the creators for months, or even years.
But Zhou Ziwu is different, refer to the period of "The Strongest Voice".
Others only cover songs, but he writes two original songs a week. You can even use the word "crazy" to describe his creation speed.
For others, one minute on stage may require ten years of hard work off stage, but Zhou Ziwu's one minute on stage may really only take sixty seconds off stage.
This young man's talents seem to be inexhaustible.
"Luck", which is still on the major charts of Penguin Music, is the best proof!
…
Zhou Ziwu originally thought that after giving Shi Yue "Crazy for Love", he could be quiet for a while.
But what he didn't expect was that Shi Yue's invitation to sing was just the beginning.
In the following days, "Yun" showed its strong "vitality".
In today's fast-paced era, it usually only takes a month or two for a song to go from being popular to fading out. A longer period of three months is already very impressive.
But the three songs in "Lun" are different, especially "Blue Lotus".
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Two months have passed, and not only has it not faded out of people’s sight, but its popularity has bucked the trend as it exploded on the short video platform!
Zhou Yun, a singer who could only stand behind and hold on to the edge of a "telephone pole" when he first appeared on a variety show, suddenly became a popular fried chicken all over the country.
The number of his Weibo followers has officially exceeded the 10 million mark, from just over one million at the beginning.
Various invitations were also sent to Zhou Ziwu's studio like snowflakes, but this time the name on the invitation was changed to Zhou Yun.
Today's weekly schedule is full, and it is even worse than Chu Qingqiu's back then.
However, unlike Chu Qingqiu, Zhou Yun does not object to a full schedule.
Compared with the previous days when no one cared about him, although he was tired during this period, no matter where he went, there was a group of lovely fans waiting for him, applauding him and calling his name.
He likes this feeling.
He makes himself like a robot, either at work or on the way to work.
He even left eating and sleeping until he was on the road.
So much so that even Zhou Wenshan couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to cancel his schedule for the next week and let him take a good vacation, but he refused outright.
He had really had enough of being a transparent person. Now that he had finally caught the east wind, of course he had to work hard.
In fact, Zhou Yun has been holding back a lot of energy in his heart.
He knows that the current admiration and love for him come from those three songs.
Just like the name of the EP - Luck, he attributes all of this to his luck.
But luck doesn't always accompany him. If he wants to retain everyone's love, he must transfer everyone's love from those three songs to himself.
So when he has the opportunity, he shows his face in front of others, which is also to show himself.
The Zhou Yun business is busy, and Zhou Ziwu, as the most important creator of "Yun", is not idle either.
After seeing the success of "Luck", his friends in the music industry couldn't sit still.
After Shi Yue, Fang Qin also came to visit again.
Although Zhou Ziwu's song "Hill" has helped him win the Golden Melody Award for Best Chinese Male Singer, realizing the long-cherished wish of the uncrowned king.
But as a singer, who would think that he has too many masterpieces? Of course, the more the better.
There was no other way, so Zhou Ziwu had to give him another song, "Ghost Confused".
Anyway, at this stage, Zhou Ziwu himself cannot sing the vicissitudes of this song, so he might as well leave it to Fang Qin, who is more suitable.
After receiving the song, Fang Qin naturally offered him a reward that far exceeded Zhou Ziwu's current market price for the song. Anyway, what he lacked was not money, but a work that could be included in the encyclopedia masterpiece.
After Fang Qin, Tan Miao's singing invitations came one after another.
He met Zhou Ziwu on the final stage of "The Strongest Voice". At that time, he was invited by Qingmeng to increase Chu Qingqiu's popularity as a supporting singer, but he ended up becoming friends with Zhou Ziwu.
After the Golden Melody Award, he also made a verbal offer to Zhou Ziwu to sing, but that time it was half-joking.
As a king-level singer currently ranked among the top three in the Chinese music scene and in his prime, Tan Miao has many masterpieces.
But with the success of "Luck" this time, he suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
In fact, he has many masterpieces, but they are basically from the years after his debut. The most recent song that can be called a masterpiece was three years ago.
The songwriters he often collaborated with in the past may have encountered a bottleneck period in recent years and have produced very little.
It's hard for a good woman to make a meal without rice. Without good works, even if his singing skills are top-notch, it will still be useless.
For example, in this Golden Melody Award, he failed to win anything, which already explains some problems.
He is in his prime and can still fight, so of course he doesn't want to just rest on his past achievements and rest in vain.
If Zhou Ziwu's sudden emergence could still keep him on the Diaoyutai, then Zhou Yun's sudden explosion made him uneasy.
If I don’t release some quality new songs, I will really be stepped on by these little guys in the future.
To be fair, Zhou Ziwu's relationship with Tan Miao was not as close as those of Fang Qin and Shi Yue. The two only met by chance and talked to each other a few times.
But after these few contacts, Tan Miao gave him a pretty good impression.
At the time of "The Strongest Sound", he was just a fledgling boy, while Tan Miao already had a pivotal position in the music world.
However, Tan Miao at that time did not despise him because of their status gap. Instead, she talked to him like a friend and encouraged him in her words.
Therefore, Zhou Ziwu had no intention of rejecting Tan Miao's invitation to sing.
Moreover, at this time, Tan Miao was still one of the dominant figures in the Chinese music scene, so it would be good to have a good relationship.
So Zhou Ziwu finally sent him the song "Only".
However, this is still not the end.
Some people couldn't contact Zhou Ziwu himself, so they began to use methods similar to Shi Yue's, and found solutions from people around him.
Someone found Huang Lizheng and wanted to ask Director Huang to make an appointment with Zhou Ziwu to sing for him.
After Huang Lizheng saw who the person who asked to sing was, he made a few haha words and brushed it off without informing Zhou Ziwu.
The person who contacted him was a leading company in the industry, and they asked Huang Liqian to make a singing appointment with Zhou Ziwu for their newly launched idol group.
The idol group was formed in a talent show two years ago. However, this talent show has been ordered to be taken off the air by the competent authorities due to the "milk pouring" incident.
In Huang Lizheng's view, not everyone is qualified to sing Zhou Ziwu's songs, let alone such "idols" who are specially trained to keep an eye on little girls' pockets.
If you give Zhou Ziwu's songs to these people, it won't be a waste.
…
Time enters June.
The weather is gradually getting hotter.
Zhou Ziwu's one-year agreement with Chu Dahu is about to expire.
