Compared to the rank of singers, there is a certain inexplicable cattiness, and the rank of songwriters is very obvious.

Someone is willing to pay 30,000 yuan for one of your songs, and you are the third line.

If someone is willing to pay 50,000 to 80,000 yuan for one of your songs, you are the second line.

Someone is willing to pay 100,000 yuan for one of your songs, and you are the first line.

If someone is willing to pay an uncapped price for one of your songs and often doesn't rank out, you're the best!

What does it take to become a top songwriter?

If the work has not been on the list, no matter how fanciful it is, it will always be a third-line.

It's also very simple, as long as your work has been performed by a singer and has been on the list, even once it is second-tier.

The works have been on the list many times and have entered the top five, so you can call yourself a first-line.

If the work often appears on the billboard, and has won the top three or even the first place, it will be recognized as the top in the circle.

What if the work dominates the top spot on the list for three consecutive weeks, and even two songs enter the top three of the list at the same time?

There have been such songwriters before, and in the circle they have a common nickname called: Master!

Master Lin Zhou.

This is the latest honorific title given to Zhou Lin by some people in the music world who don't know the details of Lin Zhou. If they knew that the owner behind this honorific title was just a first-year student at Matsue University, God knows what kind of face it would be.

And those who know the details of Lin Zhou can only be more in awe of Zhou Lin.

They finally understand what it means to be famous in a song.

Yue Lingfeng used to be a second-tier singer, and he was not too good in the second-tier, and he was not even the object of praise in Tianlai Company.

is such a singer, with a song "I Am a Wolf from the North", he was born out of nowhere, and has been on the list for four consecutive weeks, and has occupied the first place on the double list for three consecutive weeks, which can be called the most popular person in the entire Chinese music scene in September and October.

And the songwriter of this song "I am a wolf from the north" is Lin Zhou.

And Wei Hai.

Before the October holiday, only a few people knew who Wei Hai was.

But after the release of the album "You at the Same Table" and the title song of the same name, almost all students knew Wei Hai's name at once.

And in the second week. With "You at the Same Table" entering the top three of the double list, this name has become a household name.

Just the day before, when the chief director of this year's Spring Festival Gala was interviewed by reporters, he praised the song "You at the Same Table", thinking that the song praises a pure love. There is also a kind of nostalgia for the time and years, which is very suitable for the theme of this year's party, and I plan to invite Wei Hai to participate in the rehearsal of the party.

As soon as the news came out, the name Wei Hai was immediately known to more people, and the album "You at the Same Table" also set off another small sale**.

And the songwriter of the song "You at the Same Table" is Lin Zhou.

Two songs created by one person entered the top three of the double list at the same time. This kind of achievement is not unprecedented, and there will definitely be followers in the future, but it is still shining enough to blind the eyes of many people.

Many insiders who had asked everywhere who Lin Zhou was before and to no avail went out again, all wanting to find out this mysterious songwriter and ask him to write a work for their own singer.

Zhou Lin himself didn't know anything about it, and was smirking at the good news brought by Zhang Xueyuan.

"You're saying I've got a referral? It can't be your natural operation, right? ”

"It's really none of our business. I recommend you to Wei Ziyun, the editor-in-chief of the Billboard and the deputy editor-in-chief of "Huaguo Music". Zhang Xueyuan said, "Editor-in-chief Wei has always been known in the circle for liking to promote newcomers, and she also strongly recommended Leng Youyou when she first debuted, otherwise Leng Youyou would not have been able to set a record for the youngest winner of the Best Female Singer Award in the history of Zào. ”

"I never expected to be nominated for the Billboard." Zhou Lin smiled.

"I Am a Wolf from the North" and "You at the Table". Coupled with "Laughing Red Dust", the quality of each song is so high, it is natural that you will be nominated. Zhang Xueyuan said.

"It's just a nomination, not an award." Zhou Lin said.

"I think there's a lot of hope." Zhang Xueyuan said seriously, "The list has always been fair, your works are of high quality and good grades, plus it was personally recommended by Wei Ziyun, the right time, place and people are all accounted for, and the chance of winning the award is very high." ”

Zhou Lin shook his head and said, "But I heard that the Billboard is never awarded to absent nominees?" ”

There was silence on the phone for a few seconds. Only then did Zhang Xueyuan's surprised voice come out: "Don't tell me that you don't plan to go to the annual event of the Billboard after you are nominated!" ”

"I really don't want to go......" Zhou Lin is not crazy.

He wants to live a low-key life, otherwise he will directly use his real name Zhou Lin, why would he still have a pen name of Lin Zhou.

If you really go to the annual event of the Billboard, you will show your face in front of tens of millions of people. How low-key will you be in the future!

Zhang Xueyuan sighed: "Before I met you, I always thought that I was a very character person in the circle, and I didn't look down on ordinary people." But after meeting you, I found out that I actually have a character, isn't it just pretending. ”

Zhou Lin said: "Brother Zhang, you won't be saying that I am pretending to be forced, right?" ”

"No, no, no, others are pretending. You're really awesome. I've never seen someone as talented as you, I've never seen someone as low-key as you, and you're not pretending to be low-key, you're really low-key. Zhang Xueyuan said with emotion, "In front of you, I really feel old." This will be the time for you young people. ”

"Come on. Brother Zhang, don't sue me, you didn't get any nominations this year? Zhou Lin said with a smile, "I guess you have a good chance of winning the best person award this year, don't worry, this era still belongs to you!" ”

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and Zhang Xueyuan said very annoyedly: "I said that there is nothing in the world that can hide from you?" ”

As Zhou Lin expected, Zhang Xueyuan was indeed nominated, and this matter has already been decided, and there is no need to hide it from anyone.

is not only Zhang Xueyuan, "Wolf" was nominated for the best album of the year, "You at the Same Table" was nominated for the best new album of the year, Yue Lingfeng was nominated for the best singer of the year, Wei Hai was nominated for the best newcomer of the year, plus Lin Zhou, who was nominated for the best lyrics and best composition of the year, and Bai Hua, who won the best film and television episode of the year with "Laughing Red Dust", it is not an exaggeration to say that Zhou Lin's creation occupies half of the annual event of the Billboard.

That is, Zhou Lin is reluctant to be in the limelight, otherwise he will definitely attract the most attention from the media at this year's annual event! (To be continued.) )
