Huayu: The Unbelievable Matching Mechanism of Jay Chou's Love Songs

Two weeks ago, F4 held their first concert as a group at Neihu Stadium.

The concert was a great success, the atmosphere was fantastic, and the fans gave it rave reviews afterwards. This left many fans who couldn't get tickets extremely anxious, making numerous calls to the organizers and Chai Zhiping's Kemi Ritz, asking when a second show would be held and if it could be arranged as soon as possible...

Concerts are arguably one of the most lucrative ways for a singer to make money, so for a company, it's a good thing for its artists and groups to hold more concerts. Therefore, almost two or three days after the first concert ended, Chai Zhiping made a bold decision to schedule the second concert for a month later.

A month later, filming for "Meteor Garden" was basically finished. With the added buzz from the wrap-up, the concert was likely to be even more popular. Therefore, Chai Zhiping specially booked a large venue with 3 seats, intending to maximize profits.

At the time, Chai Zhiping never expected anything like this to happen, but fate had other plans, and the accident came even sooner than tomorrow...

Feng Zheng is a sensation!

His debut solo album sold like hotcakes!

This then triggered a series of "chain reactions"!

For example, because the album was so popular, and because Feng Zheng was so popular, when many fans heard that F4 was going to hold a second concert, their first thought was no longer how happy they would be to see Yan Chengxu and Zhou Yumin, let alone looking forward to Da Ess's surprise return and interaction with Yan Chengxu...

The real question is whether Feng Zheng will perform his new song at the concert!

A concert is all about the performance. For F4, there's really only one group album, and it only has two well-known and widely sung songs: "Unavoidable Love" and "Meteor Shower"...

If it weren't for its immense popularity, many viewers would have criticized this aspect.

Now Feng Zheng has another "superb album" that has become a hit throughout Taiwan!

Recently, almost everyone in Taiwan is listening to Feng Zheng's album!

If Feng Zheng can sing these songs at the concert, it will make up for the lack of well-known songs among F4!

The audience was naturally incredibly excited!

The audience probably felt that as one of F4, it was only natural for Feng Zheng to sing songs from this album at the concert.

But the problem is...

This presented Chai Zhiping with a huge problem!

The audience was willing, Chai Zhiping was willing, and Chai Zhiping even hoped that Feng Zheng would do so...

But would Feng Zheng be willing to do that?

Would Wu Zongxian be willing to accept that?

Oh, she used to suppress others so much, while the other F3 members got whatever they wanted, but Feng Zheng had to fend for himself, and yet she still gets accused of being "unsociable"...

The next day, they became famous, and you want to ride their coattails?

This is for you to see!

Is there really such a good thing in the world?

The songs on Feng Zheng's new album are different from "Meteor Rain" and "Can't Help Falling in Love" which were used in the OST of "Meteor Garden". If you want to perform songs from Feng Zheng's new album at a concert, you need to obtain the consent of the copyright holder.

Feng Zheng owns the copyright; it's not with Wu Zongxian's company. But Chai Zhiping doesn't know this.

She thought that Feng Zheng, like other singers, had his copyright held by Wu Zongxian...

Considering that she had to apologize to Wu Zongxian and resolve the conflict with Feng Zheng, and since the boss made the decisions regarding the artists, Chai Zhiping, as a behind-the-scenes investor, couldn't bow down to an artist like Feng Zheng, after much deliberation, ignored Feng Zheng and went directly to Wu Zongxian to "apologize."

That day marked the second time Chai Zhiping visited Alfa Records to see Wu Zongxian, following her previous conversation about Feng Zheng's contract transfer.

Unlike her previous arrogance, this time Chai Zhiping displayed an extremely humble demeanor, no longer showing any haughtiness. Instead, she was bowing and scraping, and even brought a bunch of things...

Tobacco, alcohol, candy, and tea were all available. Hearing that Wu Zongxian particularly liked seafood, she specially went to the port and bought several cases, constantly saying:

"Brother Xian, you're a senior figure in our industry, it wouldn't be right for me to come empty-handed..."

Wu Zongxian's smile never left the room from the moment Chai Zhiping walked in. Damn it, Wu Zongxian had never thought that he could become a boss because of his celebrity status and experience the feeling of "thirty years east of the river and thirty years west of the river".

I have to say, it's actually pretty exciting!

Chai Zhiping is a smart woman. When she came to Wu Zongxian's company that day, she only said she was visiting and did not mention the song copyright. It wasn't until noon that she invited Wu Zongxian out for lunch and after a few rounds of drinks that they started talking about serious business.

He keeps saying he'll definitely make up for what he owed Feng Zheng later...

Oh no, it's more like making up for it doubled!

They will definitely promote him to a level higher than Yan Chengxu and Zhou Yumin combined!

Those who don't know might even think he studied in the birthplace of wine culture.

To be honest, Wu Zongxian was quite receptive to Chai Zhiping's approach. Wu Zongxian is a businessman himself, and for him, Feng Zheng leaving F4 wouldn't be of much benefit. It would be better for him to stay with F4 and, with the support of his new album, expand and strengthen this "business."

But the problem is...

He had come to understand Feng Zheng's dog-like nature after so long in their superior-subordinate relationship.

The copyright isn't in his hands, it's in Feng Zheng's hands. Even if he agrees, it's useless!

Therefore, during the meal, Wu Zongxian actually mentioned it briefly to Chai Zhiping, saying, "Don't just come to me about this; you also need to get Feng Zheng's consent, this..."

Wu Zongxian also cares about his reputation, so he certainly wouldn't say that the copyright wasn't in his hands, but Chai Zhiping didn't know that...

Chai Zhiping thought that Wu Zongxian hadn't vented his anger enough and that Feng Zheng should also vent his anger, but what did Feng Zheng, an artist, need to vent his anger for?

So, taking advantage of the moment while pouring drinks, Chai Zhiping bluntly remarked, "Brother Xian, you're the boss, can't you even make decisions for the artists under your management?"

One sentence almost completely shut Wu Zongxian down...

This put Wu Zongxian in an awkward position.

How could someone as outspoken and concerned with his reputation as him possibly tell Chai Zhiping that it was useless to beg Feng Zheng instead of him?

Chai Zhiping is absolutely right!

As the boss, how could Feng Zheng possibly disobey him?!

Alcohol emboldens cowards, and after a couple of sips of horse urine, Wu Zongxian completely lost his sense of self. He waved his hand and told Chai Zhiping, "You can hold the concert, there won't be any problems. Feng Zheng will sing every song he's supposed to sing, that's my word!"

Chai Zhiping was overjoyed!

Actually, as long as you offer reasonable discounts, there's nothing that can't be solved. Everyone's trying to make money, so who the hell would turn down money?

However, Chai Zhiping seems to have overlooked one thing...

That's what Feng Zheng doesn't want. Let alone Wu Zongxian, even if the Heavenly King himself came, it wouldn't make a damn difference!

Will you sing songs from your new album at the concert?

Sing your mother's song!

Wasn't the microphone muted before?

Sure!

If you're so capable, never let the Reverse Butterfly open its doors for the rest of your life!
