Recently, singer Zhou Hui used her short video platform to transform into an "emotional DJ" to send messages to love. She helped fans connect their former lovers on the spot, which was very similar to the very popular radio songs and sentiments in the 1980s and 1990s. Zhou Hui is also like an emotional DJ on the radio, conveying blessings to fans and offering moving songs. Fans lamented that after experiencing the ups and downs of career and emotions, this love song queen has accumulated more confidence and beauty, and she lives in her true self-style in middle age.
Zhou Hui, 45 years old this year, became famous for her song " Agreement ". She is collectively known as Taiwan's "Four Little Queen" along with the same Elva Hsiao, Jolin Tsai , and Stefanie Sun . Her first album "Zhou Hui Selection" sold more than one million copies, but after a brilliant start, she experienced career and emotional changes and suddenly disappeared from the public's sight. She had been separated for nearly five years.
Career: Being led the way to plot, falling from the peak to the bottom
1977, Zhou Hui was born in an ordinary family in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. She has no hobbies, but she likes singing. But at first she did not regard singing as her career pursuit, but loved art and planned to study stage plays in the UK and be behind the scenes after returning from her studies.
1996, Zhou Hui graduated from the Chinese Art School. During the summer vacation that year, she recorded a CD for herself as graduation memory and sang the songs of Lam Yilian , Faye Wong , Xu Meijing , Sammi Cheng and others.
Unexpectedly, she amazed the studio owner as soon as she spoke. The boss who got the treasure recommended this CD to the famous producer of the Taiwanese music scene Ji Zhongping .
Ji Zhongping once produced famous Taiwanese singers such as Xu Ruyun , Qi Qin , Fan Xiaoxuan . He was also amazed by Zhou Hui's singing and took this CD to find the director of Fumao Records , Li Yaming , and the two decided to sign Zhou Hui on the spot.
When Ji Zhongping called Zhou Hui, Zhou Hui thought it was a scam call, and she didn't dare to believe it until she verified with the studio owner. Between her uncertain future and her dream of getting ready, she struggled for a long time and finally agreed to Ji Zhongping's invitation. However, the incident was unpredictable. Unexpectedly, it was her mentor who successfully pushed her into the music industry, but she also pushed her into the dilemma of her career with her own hands. After
signed a contract with Fumao Records for 5 years and 8 albums, it was only one album away from Zhou Hui's popularity.
In August 1999, the album "Zhou Hui Selected" was launched in full swing. As expected, Zhou Hui's clean and pure voice spread throughout the streets and alleys of Taiwan. Especially the song "Agreement", which ranked first in the music rankings for half a year.
After the popularity of "Agreement", she released two albums, "Zhou Hui Selection 2" and "Zhou Hui Selection 3". Although the sales are still good, she cannot continue the myth of "Agreement". Her fighter singer Liang Jingru was in charge of the Rolling Stone and won the award with "Happy Breakup", which directly beat Zhou Hui to a loss.
In 2004, Zhou Hui and Fumao Records signed a contract with him will expire soon. Ji Zhongping promised to produce 8 albums for Zhou Hui, and there are still 3 left to be completed. He "kindly" helped Zhou Huihe to match BGM Records and signed a contract with RMB 6 million "transfer fee" on the condition that he would release 3 albums in 3 years.
"Transfer" is equivalent to selling contract, but Ji Zhongping did not tell the truth, but just took a piece of white paper and said to Zhou Hui: "I'll take a job for you, sign a letter." Zhou Hui signed his name without thinking too much. But soon, Ji Zhongping disappeared.
It was not until BGM Records contacted Zhou Hui that she knew the truth. Because of the 6 million that Ji Zhongping took away, including the production cost of the album, BGM was unwilling to spend money to help Zhou Hui produce the album, and Zhou Hui also had to work for BGM for three years for free.
Ji Zhongping's betrayal was like a bolt from the blue to Zhou Hui. She never thought that this mentor who brought herself into the industry would destroy herself in this way. If you cannot release an album, it means that the country that Zhou Hui has built in three or four years will collapse.
No income, no notice, the taste of falling from the peak to the bottom completely defeated Zhou Hui. She locked herself in the room, and her depression filled the room, and she even wanted to jump out of the windowsill to end it all.
Emotion: During the silence period, her father passed away. After being "breaked up" with her boyfriend who had been dating for 7 years, Zhou Hui entered the silence period of her career. During this period, her life was very bumpy. She experienced the death of her father one after another, and her boyfriend broke up, and her wife's dream was shattered.
Zhou Hui has always been low-key in terms of relationships. She mentioned in an interview a few years ago that she had wasted 7 years on her old love, and her relationship was betrayed.
She mentioned that she had dated her ex for 7 years with the mentality of dating marriage. She planned to get married and have children when she was singing until the 10th year. Unexpectedly, she was broken up in the end, and the time between the other party and another woman was overlapping with her. In the end, the man married someone else, not her.
Return: Jay Chou , Jackie Chan helps and moves to the mainland, but it is difficult to return to the glorious past
In 2005, the second year after Zhou Hui disappeared in the entertainment industry, Jay Chou learned about her experience and introduced her to the giant room culture to help her and the company fight for rights and interests.
Despite this, it has been two years since Zhou Hui walked into the recording studio again.
In 2007, after three years of separation from the music industry, Zhou Hui, who had regained her old career, had many discomforts. Before this, Zhou Hui used tape recordings when she released the album, and there was no way to edit the sound. She could only spend a few days to polish the pitch and sound of a song.
In just three years, the tape disappeared, replaced by computer recording. The development of technology can make the tone to the most perfect level.
Missed the golden period of development, and it would be difficult for Zhou Hui to turn over.
In 2009, "Qunshi International and Seed Music " threw an olive branch to Zhou Hui. Zhou Hui seized the opportunity without hesitation and wanted to win back the stolen three years.
This year, Zhou Hui released the album of the same name "Zhou Hui", in which the song "Own Movie" also specifically invited Jackie Chan to work together.
Jackie Chan was once moved by Zhou Hui's "Agreement" and said that Zhou Hui was his idol. He bought 60 albums of Zhou Hui in one go and gave them to relatives and friends. This fate makes Jackie Chan bother to contribute to the family class to help Zhou Hui. It’s just a pity that the Chinese music scene was already the oldest wave in the Yangtze River. In the next four years, Zhou Hui released two albums "Own Room" and " The World I See ", and the company was replaced by Huayan International, but it never caused any splashes.
With the rise of mainland entertainment variety shows, many Hong Kong and Taiwan singers have turned to the mainland. As early as 2013, when Hunan Satellite TV " I am a singer ", it was rumored that Zhou Hui will participate as an invitation singer. As soon as the news came out, some netizens said that "there is no lower limit for the appearance of a female star in the program to choose a female star." Faced with this controversy about appearance, Zhou Hui directly angrily retorted: "The show is called "I Am a Singer", not "I Am a Beauty". Under this wave of popularity, Zhou Hui became a hot search, but Zhou Hui refused the invitation because she was preparing for a Beijing singer.
2020, Zhou Hui showed her face in " Tianshu Voice ", and she sang "Agreement" again to sell her feelings. As a mentor, Hu Yanbin bluntly said: "This era is changing, and the music everyone likes is also changing. Without breakthrough, it can only become a classic in the past. "
Hu Yanbin hit the nail on the head and hit the head and hit the reality of development in the entertainment industry. It makes Zhou Hui feel like a thorn in the back, like a needle and a feeling of being on the head.
Current situation: She was not married at the age of 45, and she learned to "show her presence" to make music in middle age
Zhou Hui's voice is soft and sweet, which is very suitable for singing love songs, but her appearance is not outstanding. When she debuted, the company designed a series of illustrations for her, only hearing her voice and not seeing her.
Now, at the age of 45, she has not found a suitable person for her.In an interview with the media, she revealed that her colleagues gave her an important task, which was to search for peach blossoms through a dating software. The highest record during the trial period was to flirt with 11 people in one night, which was a bit shocking in terms of number, but unfortunately, she couldn't find a suitable development target.
In terms of music, she understands that with the continuous development of the Internet, artists need to "open business" online to maintain a certain level of exposure; music needs to rely on short videos and variety shows to gain public attention more easily. Therefore, she often shares her daily life on her social media and admitted frankly, "Sorry, now we have entered an era where we have to show our presence, and I am still adapting. If everyone really needs these things, I can do something to accompany everyone without disturbing my private life. I like to play and I will enjoy it when I encounter fun things."
Now Zhou Hui still has the same figure, and she has gone through the difficulties of life, and her state is calm and confident, and she shows her unique beauty more and more.
can enjoy the current life, and use some forms to stick to music and convey music to enrich her life's fun. I believe that she can also have her own happiness and happiness by "transmitting the voice for love".
