Invited Jay Chou to compose the royal arrangement Xu Jinhang to compose the anti-epidemic song "Fate has you"

"Incredible, there is you in life, take me through the trajectory of uneasiness, emotions..." Recently, a song called "Fate with You" touched many people. It is reported that "Fate has you" was created by Xu Jinhang, a young writer from Jinjiang, who wrote lyrics and sang. He said that he wanted to dedicate this song to the medical staff fighting in the frontline of the fight against the epidemic, pay tribute to the heroes of the fight against the epidemic, and send the most sincere blessings to his hometown.

Yesterday, the reporter contacted Xu Jinhang, who was in Shenzhen. He revealed that the original intention of creating this song stemmed from an event last year. In April last year, at the "Jinjiang Youth Says" • Youth War "Epidemic" special salon, as the host, Xu Jinhang interviewed Guo Longyan and Zhang Lidi, the first batch of fujian medical team members to support Hubei, nurses of Jinjiang City Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

"During the event, everyone wore masks throughout the event, although I did not have the opportunity to see their faces, but from their eyes, I felt firm faith and courage." They are young, but they took the initiative to ask for help at a critical moment and threw themselves into the forefront of the fight against the epidemic, and this 'retrograde' bravery and great love are touching. At that time, Xu Jinhang's heart had an idea - to write a song for the anti-epidemic heroes.

Since then, Xu Jinhang has been looking for a suitable opportunity to write songs. "Later, when I heard a piece of music played by Zhang Hanyuan, I immediately got the inspiration to keep this piece for me, and I wanted to use it to compose."

Xu Jinhang admitted that the creation at the beginning was not smooth, and he was not very satisfied with the lyrics after writing several drafts. He said that he did not want to write about the fight against the epidemic in a straightforward way, but wanted to express it in a different way. "The most difficult thing about writing lyrics is that the space is limited, but the content of the expression must be complete, so it needs to be constantly polished in details." Sometimes it's just a word that needs to be constantly considered. For example, Xu Jinhang said that one of the lyrics in the original version was "step by step looking", "I pondered for a long time, I always felt almost meaningless, the creative progress has been stuck, and later felt that using 'looking up' can better express my respect, and finally changed to 'step by step looking up'." ”

It is worth mentioning that Xu Jinhang also invited Jay Chou's royal arranger Huang Yuxun to serve as the arranger of "Fate with You". As a top producer in the Chinese music scene, many of Jay Chou's songs are produced by Huang Yuxun, such as the well-known "Daoxiang", "Fireworks Easy to Cold", "Mojito" and so on.

Talking about the cooperation with Huang Yuxun, Xu Jinhang told reporters that the two have known each other for a long time and have cooperated before. "I was very amazed by Teacher Huang's arrangement. When I created "Destiny with You", I was thinking that since it was to give the heart of the anti-epidemic hero, it was necessary to use the best production lineup. Xu Jinhang thanked him, although he was busy with Jay Chou's new song, Huang Yuxun was very powerful, ranking the production of "Hit with You" in the front and completing it ahead of schedule.

The reporter learned that not only the songwriting, the song recording lineup is also very strong, the recording and mixing is Han Lei's royal recording engineer Zhou Xiaoming, the harmony is Faye Wong's royal harmony Fan Zhuqing, and the guitar is Yu Qiushi, who has served as Li Yuchun, Zhou Bichang and many other supergirl music producers, which can be called an all-star lineup.

After more than a month of production, "Hit with You" was officially launched on QQ Music and Kugou Music recently. Xu Jinhang said that the song was only recorded in early September and wanted to wait for a suitable opportunity to release it. But now that his hometown is at a critical moment in the fight against the epidemic, he decided to release the song in advance, which is the most sincere blessing of a Jinjiang person who is struggling outside for his hometown.
