This is the first time Jay Chou won the award at . At that time, all the reporters rushed to interview a female singer next to him. There was no interview microphone facing him, no camera facing him, and no one cared about him winning the award.
In 2000, Jay Chou, who debuted as a newcomer, released his first solo album "Jay". As soon as the album
was released, it was loved by the audience. Therefore, Jay Chou won the Golden Melody Award for Best Album that year, and also nominated for many awards such as Best Newcomer and Best Composer. At the award ceremony, Jay Chou almost jumped on stage to receive the award. When he made his speech, he was incoherent and could not suppress his inner ecstasy. A newcomer who just debuted could achieve such results in his first year, and Jay Chou has since gained a place in the music industry.
Never offend singers, because if you are not careful, you may be written into the song, and even songs that mock you will become classics.
"Chinese top Chinese" Jay Chou was once "routine" by the Golden Melody Awards, so President Zhou specially wrote a song to express his anger, and this song has been sung until now.
This may be the most aggressive song of all Jay Chou’s songs. What’s going on?
In 2001, Jay Chou's second album " Fantesey " set the most brilliant record in the Golden Melody Awards. This year, Jay Chou won five awards for Best Album, Best Producer, Best Lyricist, Best Composer and Best Arranger for "Fantasy", breaking the historical record of the Golden Melody Awards.
At the moment, Jay Chou was in the limelight. After a year of preparation, Jay Chou released the album " Octave Space " with full confidence. Like the first two albums, "Octodes Space" has also become the darling of the Golden Melody Awards and was shortlisted for five major awards.
The energetic Jay Chou took his grandmother to attend the Golden Melody Awards ceremony with joy, hoping that his grandmother who loved him since childhood could witness this scene with her own eyes.
However, reality slapped Jay Chou in the face.
Although "Octodegree Space" was shortlisted for multiple awards, all of them were upset when the results were finally announced. "Octave Space" didn't win a single award! After the results of
were announced, not only the audience was stunned, but even Jay Chou, who had been calm, could not control his disappointed expression.
originally wanted to share this wonderful night with grandma, but the result of the Golden Melody Awards hit Jay Chou a heavy blow. The organizing committee gave the reason why Jay Chou lost the election was: "The style has not changed or made breakthroughs, and it is a bit the same."
At the end of the award ceremony, many media rushed to interview grandma's feelings at this time, and grandma just smiled helplessly, with a hint of disappointment in her eyes.
The following year, Jay Chou released a very ridiculous new song "Grandma", in which he described the Golden Melody Award as a game. Faced with the unfair treatment of the Golden Melody Awards, Jay Chou responded in the lyrics: "The decision to deny my work lies in his mood. I told my grandmother that I didn't lose and there is no need to change."
This song was also included in Jay Chou's album "Qi Li Xiang" released in 2004. It was also because of this song that Jay Chou began to have conflicts with the Golden Melody Awards since then.
If "Grandma" is just the beginning of Jay Chou's struggle with the Golden Melody Awards, then in the next few years, the two sides will expose the incompatible relationship to the public.
Since Jay Chou released the album "Qianlixiang", many albums such as "Still Van Sit" that have been created in succession have not won nominations or awards for the Golden Melody Award.
Interestingly, Jay Chou's album sales have been rising year by year, and he has won many awards in other music competitions, but he has been in the Golden Melody Awards for three consecutive years.
Until 2007, Jay Chou's " Blue and White Porcelain " in the album "I'm Very Busy" won three awards: Best Composer, Best Lyricist, and Best Song of the Year in the Golden Melody Awards.
But Jay Chou, who did not forget the shame, refused to receive the award on the spot, but just got rid of the rewards for his friends and even left the Golden Melody Awards on the spot, and was useless.

In 2008, Jay Chou released " Magic Jie Zou ", which made him win the Best Actor Award at the Golden Melody Awards for the first time. Jay Chou still did not come to the scene to receive the award in person due to concert reasons.
Although Jay Chou failed to receive the award in person, his relationship with the Golden Melody Awards began to ease slowly.
Until 2010, Jay Chou released the album " Cross-Era ", winning the Golden Melody Award for Best Mandarin Album and Best Arrangement, and completing the era reconciliation with the Golden Melody Award.
After many years, Jay Chou stood on the stage again. He said: "The song "Grandma" was dissed the Golden Melody Award, and now I'm going to take it back."
Time will erase everything, and Jay Chou used his own strength to respond to all doubts from the outside world.
Use songs to curse people. It is not the only time Jay Chou does this.
In 2005, Jay Chou released his new song " Beyond Him ", which was included in "Chopin in November".
At first glance, you may think this is a song with traditional cultural charm. But if you listen carefully to the lyrics, you will find the mystery.
This song was used by Jay Chou to diss the paparazzi. At that time, Jay Chou was in love with the host of the show Hou Patty Hou and . While the two were out for fun together, they were taken photos by the paparazzi who followed.
After learning the news, Jay Chou's fans said that Patty Hou was not worthy of her idol Jay Chou, and Patty Hou also broke up peacefully with Jay Chou because she could not stand the accusations from the outside world.
Before this, Jay Chou mostly turned a blind eye to paparazzi's behavior. As long as they did not interfere too much in their lives, he would not care about paparazzi.
However, this time the paparazzi's behavior directly affected his emotional life, and Jay Chou could no longer bear it. So he integrated his helplessness and the paparazzi's camera sound into the song: "A dog who can talk, he said he was for the Dog Weekly, to see if he could take pictures of me, and to change a few more bones."
This may be the highest level of singers scolding people.
Not only that, Jay Chou once said something that directly caused the Koreans to retaliate against him for nearly 10 years.
2021, Jay Chou's 15 years ago " Coral Sea " was covered by Korean singer Zheng Chun-won in a program. Once aired, Jung Chun-won and "The Coral Sea" won the top four hot searches in South Korea.
Strangely, "The Coral Sea" became popular in South Korea at that time, but no audience until the song was written by Jay Chou, and even the MC in the show emphasized that this is the new song.
What is more intriguing is that other songs sung in the show are marked with the original singer, but when it was "Coral Sea", the subtitles only introduced the title and singer, and even the female singer in it also introduced that this is a new song. No one knows the specific reason, but everyone tacitly pointed to Jay Chou’s words 9 years ago.
In 2012, at a music awards ceremony, the awards ceremony was held in Beijing, but the organizer did not expect that the organizer played "Gangnan Style" at the opening. Jay Chou, who won several grand prizes, said directly in the interview: "I think all artists should unite and stop "Gangnan Style".
Originally, Jay Chou just wanted to express that Chinese music was more powerful than Korean pop. Chinese music scene has many excellent singers and many excellent songs. I hope to give local works more opportunities.
Unexpectedly, this sentence was intercepted by someone who is interested, distorting Jay Chou’s original intention of “self-improvement and self-reliance” into “resisting Bird Uncle ”.Since then, Jay Chou has become a representative figure of "anti-Korea" in South Korea.
Jay Chou is worthy of being the man who won the most Golden Melody Awards. When the results of the Golden Melody Awards were announced, Jay Chou posted on the social platform: Congratulations to friends who won the Golden Melody Awards, let everyone celebrate for a few more days, and the brother is coming out later. Jay Chou even took the initiative to bring the tags #The Man with the Most Golden Melody Awards# and other tags.

Jay Chou deserves such confidence. In the music world, Jay Chou is undoubtedly a superstar.

But if you just feel that your work is not innovative, you will personally attack Jay Chou, and such behavior is not necessary. After all, it is difficult to tune in, and music cannot meet everyone's needs.
Jay Chou’s musical aesthetic is unquestionable. In the era when saliva was prevalent, "The Greatest Work" can also integrate various forms such as classical, hip-hop, rap and popular, which is very rare.
Especially from the perspective of production of the entire album, compared with the divine songs that are flooded with Douyin, "The Greatest Work" can be regarded as a masterpiece carefully produced. Its melody retains Jay Chou’s unique personal characteristics and is a typical Zhou’s song.

Another hundred years, looking back at the most outstanding ultra-modern music master in the Chinese music scene in the 1920s, that is me - Jay Chou.
So, even though there are only 6 new songs on the new album's song list, his fans are willing to pay for him. For fans, listening to Jay Chou’s songs has become a kind of sentiment, as if he is missing his past youth.
and even Jay Chou’s fans have also said that as long as Jay Chou is open for business, it doesn’t matter how small the volume is.
