At that time, he came out, the first album of the same name "Jay", which was the real debut.
TW has a talk show star, Wu Zongxian, who hosted a program called Super Newcomer King, through which he found some new people in the entertainment circle. Jay Chou has the opportunity to participate in this program. In order to get Wu Zongxian's attention, he wrote a very strange "menu song". Wu Zongxian found that he was a plastic talent, so he just signed him with the then lyricist Fang Gang. This is 1998. The following year, Wu Zongxian and Jay Chou signed another singer contract. At that time, Jay Chou signed a contract with Alpha Records in Wu Zongxian, which was small, while Wu Zongxian was busy with other affairs. At first, this company had no specific business. Later, Wu Zongxian handed over the company to his friend Yang Junrong, the general manager of Alpha Records, to help him manage it.
Yang Junrong recalled in an interview: "The first time I met Jay was on July 1 2000, when he was sleeping in a record company. He was very thin. I watched him wander around the office every day, wearing a cap and not talking much. The speech was also very simple:' good, bad, yes, no'. I just took over the company and didn't know much about it. Once I asked him,' Did Zong Xian tell you about making records?' He said,' Brother Xian said that I would play the movie after I finished writing 10 songs.' I asked him how many songs he had written. He said he wrote a song. So he found a recorded demo from his mess and played it to me. This song is his first single "Lovely Woman". Four minutes later, I told him to do it right away, and it will be released in June+10, 65438. Then I called Wu Zongxian:' What are you waiting for such a singer!' "
In June 2000, Jay Chou's first record was published, and Alpha became a big company.
The above content comes from the Internet, which is a simple description of Jay Chou's debut and a relatively real version. For example, he 1999 wrote nunchakus, when Jay was just a composer. He thought that such avant-garde songs could only be accepted by May, who was very popular at that time, but when he showed it to A-mei, the answer was "unacceptable". Another example is that he told Wu Zongxian the idea of making an album. Wu Zongxian asked him to write 50 songs a week, and then selected 65,438+00 songs to make an album, which Jay did.
However, it is undeniable that Jay Chou's first album "Jay's Same Name" was officially released in 20001October 3 165438+.
Of course, he also wrote songs to many people before his debut, such as Beijing Opera Blues, Rooftops and Snails.
Sister, are you asleep? > etc.
What really made him famous at the speed of sound was the second album "Fan Texi" released on September, 20065438 18.
The appearance of this retro-style work was a complete storm-like subversion to the Chinese music scene at that time. Many people began to listen to Jay Chou's songs from this album, and began to like this boy who is not outstanding in appearance, has messy hair, small eyes and loves to brush cool. Many people think that Fan Texi is Jay Chou's best album. Although this is a subjective feeling, we can see the influence of this album.

To talk about subversion, this album is the first hit song "Nunchaku". Even though most people don't understand the lyrics, the phrase "use nunchakus quickly, hum and haw" is probably well known. The significance of this song does not lie in Fang Zhouzi's overshooting lyrics, Jay's overshooting action of playing nunchakus, or Zhong Xingmin's overshooting arrangement of the perfect combination of explosive drums and piano erhu, but in telling Chinese music circles and hundreds of millions of fans in the most straightforward way: "The whole song is also being sung!" . Although this is not the first time that rap appeared, although many people still don't accept this singing method, it expresses this idea in the name of popularity, and also shows Jay's maverick character and domineering.
My Site is already the song in the fifth book. According to him, everything he is doing now is sticking to his own style.
The lyrics of my website are cool and trendy, reflecting the personality of the younger generation today. The prelude of this song is very distinctive, using a large-scale cadenza movement similar to Hollywood fantasy, and then Jay's cool performance began. Cool lyrics are typed like machine guns. Of course, there is a pause. Let's enjoy the piano notes in the interlude. In this day and age, being cool is not a crime. Play if you want, but play beautifully. Jay Chou is very good at it.
He is going to release his seventh album, so I'm looking forward to it.
