Many people fantasize that they are an eagle flying in the blue sky and a cheetah galloping on the Yuan Ye, but he only compares himself to a snail, carrying a heavy shell and climbing up step by step. Heavy shell is his big dream, step by step is his persistent mentality, and he is Jay Chou.

When Jay Chou was a child, he was called "mentally retarded teenager" and "autistic teenager". He seldom talks to people and always does what he likes in an obscure corner. Like a snail, no one ever noticed him, but he kept crawling.

Childhood for many children, there will be many toys, but for Jay Chou, the only toy is the piano. Maybe his childhood is not as colorful as others, but he is carefree and happy.

But this happiness stopped when he was fourteen, and his father and mother divorced and ran away from home.

Fourteen years old is a period of ignorance and rebellion. He often talks to himself alone, "Why did he leave my mother and me? Why did he abandon us? "

With incomprehension and a little hatred, he locked himself in the country of music, practiced hard, learned music theory and contacted more musical instruments.

The departure of his father had a great influence on his body and mind. He became taciturn and autistic, but on the other hand, it also inspired his musical talent.

The spacious stage is full of audiences.

Suddenly a beam of light fell and hit a piano. An elegant man is sitting at the piano. He touched the keys gently, as if to say, let's begin, old friend.

With the dancing of fingers, beautiful piano sounds spread out, sometimes melodious, sometimes cheerful, sometimes tender and sometimes cheerful.

He is a noble prince in this country. The music ended, and the applause thundered and lasted for a long time.

This is Jay Chou's dream for seventeen years. Dreams are like flowers blooming on branches, which are always knocked down by reality. After graduating from high school, she didn't go to college and couldn't find a job. At that time, Jay Chou was going to be a waiter in a restaurant.

What is contained in his eyes is not to give in to reality, nor to give up his dreams in this way. This is not the real Jay Chou, Jay Chou like a snail.

In his view, dreams are so heavy that they cannot be realized by imagination and persistence alone. It requires great strength, spiritual strength and material strength. To have this power, you have to live first, and then expand yourself step by step.

So he worked as a waiter in a restaurant to support himself and started his own music creation.

God will take care of such a serious and persistent person.

In order to improve the taste of the restaurant and attract tourists, Jay Chou hired a pianist to perform in the restaurant, but after a long search, he couldn't find a suitable one.

Once after work, Jay Chou, who had one's fingers itch for a while, ran to the piano to play, and immediately stunned his colleagues who went to work together. "This little boy, who is usually a little dull and doesn't like to talk, actually talked about the piano!"

Soon the story spread to the restaurant owner, who happily said to Jay Chou, "You don't have to do anything for the two hours when the guests are eating, just sit in front of the piano and play hard."

The owner of this restaurant is a shrewd man. He found the right time to promote his restaurant and make it famous. He contacted the TV station and said that a waiter in his restaurant played the piano very well. Jay Chou soon became a "celebrity" in this small place.

The first person Jay Chou wants to thank is naturally his mother, so the second person is Wu Zongxian. It was his eye for pearls and vigorous cultivation that made later pop stars.

After Jay Chou became famous for playing the piano in a restaurant, his family signed him up for a very popular entertainment program, The Newcomer Super King.

Inappropriate and shy, Jay Chou didn't dare to sing on stage alone, so he found a good friend to sing, and he accompanied him on the piano. Who would have thought that his friend was a mediocre singer and didn't get any rankings?

Wu Zongxian, the attentive host, noticed this cool little boy dressed casually, wearing a hat with a low brim and accompanied by the piano.

Of course, it was not the dress that caught Wu Zongxian's attention, but the music played by Jay Chou. Wu Zongxian was surprised. "Such a careless and even a bit bohemian young man can compose such complicated music."

After the recording, Wu Zongxian found Jay Chou and asked Jay Chou if he would like to be a full-time songwriter in his company.

For a person who has always dreamed of music, this is undoubtedly a good opportunity, and Jay Chou readily agreed.

From then on, he began his career of writing songs and devoted himself to music creation.

At that time, imaginative and unique lyrics and songs seemed out of date, and no one liked his works, let alone sang them.

Wu Zongxian recommended Jay Chou's Tears Know to King Andy Lau. After reading it, Andy Lau replied, "How can tears know? What should tears know? " Andy Lau refused to sing this song.

In fact, Andy Lau can't be blamed for rejecting Jay Chou's songs, but Jay Chou's creation at that time was the product of the combination of Chinese and Western, avant-garde, bold and unique.

Later, he wrote nunchakus, and thought that the more fashionable May would accept it. Who ever thought that even she refused?

I think many bosses will choose to fire their employees when their actions are not recognized by the world. But Wu Zongxian didn't. He admired Jay Chou's talent and was deeply impressed by his persistence and seriousness in his bones.

Jay Chou once questioned whether he was unfit to make music. Jay Chou's boss, Wu Zongxian, is also his mentor. I thought of a way to inspire him. Wu Zongxian went to Jay Chou and said, "If you want to write 50 songs in ten days, I must recognize 10 before I can make a record for you."

Jay Chou, who is so close to his dream for the first time, doesn't know whether he can create 50 songs in ten days or 10 songs for his boss's approval, but he knows that he will try his best to force himself.

He bought a box of instant noodles, soaked a bag when he was hungry, continued to write songs after eating, climbed onto the table when he was tired, and continued to write after waking up for more than ten days.

Of course, his first album "Jay" was released, but no one expected it to be popular.

Overnight, people all over the world knew about Jay Chou.

As Wu Zongxian once said, "He is the king, and how to win this crown depends on how hard he works."

Soon Zhou's music swept the whole Chinese music scene, and his birth set off a music revolution. A series of Chinese-style tunes became the most meaningful and attractive imprint of that era.

He won the record sales championship eight times and is the singer who won the most honors. He won nearly 400 music awards and is the most popular singer after Teresa Teng.

He changed many people's world with music. Just like the song "Listen to Mom", it has cured countless rebellious teenagers.

According to my mother, the creative background is a weak teenager who wants to protect his mother. But he is too thin, and he will try to make himself strong. No matter how bumpy and thorny the road ahead is, he is fearless and brave. This teenager is Jay Chou, or you, me and him in adolescence.

Jay Chou was once asked, How long are you going to sing?

He said, I will sing until I can't move. I hope to hold another concert at the age of 60, with nunchakus as the opening song, listening to mother, Qilixiang and Daoxiang as the intermediate links, and finally ending the concert with a blue and white porcelain. This is his 60-year agreement with fans.

Many people know that Jay Chou is very busy, making movies, catering and making music. Now he has settled in the e-sports industry and formed Jay's team, but he has always insisted on releasing an album every year, because this is also his agreement with fans.

I believe many people are describing a Jay Chou, especially the generation of 8090, because that mark represents memories and youth.

Jay Chou's new era is a milestone in Chinese music. Yes, he is an influential musician in Chinese music. He is good at Bruce and R&; B, rap, western classics, jazz, hip hop, etc.

Jay Chou's Chinese style set off the revival of China culture. Yes, there is at least one Chinese-style song in each of his albums. He injected literary beauty and artistic conception into his lyrics, which were both tactfully moving and poetic.

As the fans said, "I like a person who is talented in singing, humble, filial to parents, loyal to friends and gentle to lovers." I often dress myself up as a cool person, and that sentence "Oh, good" has become his exclusive mantra. He is Jay Chou. "
