Years are a journey that never goes back
Good and bad are all scenery
Don't blame me for being greedy, just not wanting to wake up
For you are only willing to be with me for you
Watch the clouds light and the wind is light
Kim Hyun-gi
Many people know that the name Jin Weiqi began with the song "Thief of Years", a girl who sang like Sun Yanzi.
Jin Weiqi, a girl who has worked behind the scenes for ten years, from a twenty-year-old fancy age, to the age of gradually entering Ben San, from a girl who has no one to pay attention to, to a singer who has attracted much attention. In those days when time passed like water, she used her unique talent and enthusiasm for music to paint her own world.
In the 3rd grade of elementary school, when everyone didn't know all the words, Kim Hyun-gi wrote his dream on the blackboard: singer.
Always independent, she learned vocal music from her parents in high school, and resolutely decided to apply for the Xi'an Conservatory of Music.
Out of her love of music, she went to learn to write songs, writing songs while sending demos to record companies.
Dreams can be done by anyone, but there are not many people who can stick to their dreams without wavering.
After the demo was approved, Kim Hyun-gi mistakenly started her ten-year behind-the-scenes career.
She wrote the Happy Family's "Singing for You", Yao Beina's "Without You", "Golden Branches and Jade Leaves", "Fireworks" and other familiar songs.
In this way, she groped in the music circle for several years, but never found her own style. Gradually, she found that she didn't like the songs she wrote. I began to fall into confusion, not knowing where the road ahead was.
At the end of 2012, Jin Weiqi met Li Zongsheng at a friend's party and talked to the "big brother" about his troubles. Li Zongsheng's advice to her is that when you are young, don't think too much about the market.
Later, Jin Weiqi began to post his own song demo on Douban Music. Unexpectedly, from the end of 2012 to the beginning of 2013, she ranked first on the Douban music chart for half a year. Since then, she has begun to have her own fans. Life, music, everything is going in a good direction.
Many creators will choose to participate in the variety show in order to go to the front of the screen, and Jin Weiqi is no exception!
She wanted to try to get more people to hear her music. As a result, she appeared on the stage of "Chinese Good Songs" for 14 years. Although she was already famous at the time, not many audiences knew her on the stage, and none of the mentors had heard her name.
Who knows, when she sang the original song "Love" on the stage, the unique voice and fresh melody surprised the four seats as soon as she opened her mouth, and the tutor Zhou Huajian on the other side was amazing. This song was later included in Zhou Huajian's album "New Energy in jianghu". After that show, many people began to know the name Kim Hyun-gi, and they also became curious about this girl with such a clear voice, and people began to pay attention to her music.
In 2014, she and her friends went to see the movie "Beijing Love Story", and when she returned, she felt emotional and spent more than an hour writing the song "The Thief of Years" and then uploaded it to Weibo.
Fortunately, director Chen Sicheng heard her song and said that he liked it very much, so "The Thief of Years" was used as a promotional song for northern love movies to this day, and as a "newcomer", she created more than 10 million auditions.
Chen Sicheng said: "Jin Weiqi's songs make me feel the meaning of creation, not the box office but the echo, we are fellow travelers. I would like to sit quietly in the corner of the concert and listen to the song "The Thief of Time" that made me cry again, and I also believe that Weiqi's song will definitely appear in one of my future movies. ”
Later, Jin Weiqi wrote the song "Talent Co., Ltd.", which she said was so good that she wanted to go to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to register it as a company name.
Ms. Kim said she wrote the song one night in 2014 when she was working overtime with a friend from a film and television company whose artist was shortlisted for the Hong Kong Film Awards for Best Actress. While paying attention to the progress of the award, friends contacted various domestic media to block the side. Late at night, the Jianwai SOHO office was just them and an uncle who mopped the floor. She suddenly felt very touched.
"Limited talent" is a joke.
Because of this song "Talent Co., Ltd.", one day in 2014, Jin Weiqi suddenly received a call from Shrimp Mi Music to receive this song from their "Looking for Light" album, which contains works such as Lee Young-ho, Mo Xizi poems, pain and escape plans, and they are all more famous than her. However, in the end, the entire album's on-demand ranking, Kim Hyun-gi's song is the highest.
In 2015, Kim released his debut album Perfect World, taken from Clint Eastwood's film of the same name, intended to express that there are imperfections in the perfect world, and imperfect encounters make the world more perfect. The songwriting of the ten works on the album was written by Kim Hyun-gi himself.
"I don't think that the hardships in the public values are so hard for me, but the process of struggle is actually very happy and real."
- Kim Hyun-gi
The songs in "Perfect World" are written about small people and inconspicuous little details in life, but there is a magic that allows you to free yourself from the trivialities of these lives and discover landscapes that you have never seen before.
Some time ago, the popular costume drama "Si Meiren", Jin Weiqi single-handedly arranged two interludes. She sang the song of detachment, the chu ci, the iron bones of the youlan zhengzheng, and the ambition of Qu Yuan's "beauty". Qingli is not stained with dust, simple and simple, pure and pure, elegant and comfortable.
Now she is working on her second album, quietly composing, unaffected by the glitzy music scene, and making the music she wants to make.
When he was young, music became the companion of Jin Weiqi alone in Beijing, but in order to "choose the road he chose", no matter how much grinding was also the "painful growth" in Jin Weiqi's song.
Now she has begun to use music to warm the hearts of everyone behind the city, empathize with everyone, and at the same time more firmly follow her musical dreams.
In fact, I think everyone's life is like passing the level, and in this process will encounter all kinds of problems, she is in this state of death, that is, you encounter various problems is the soldier to block, the water to cover, I think life should be like this.
The singer-songwriter is the label that the world has imposed on her, but she is still the Jin Weiqi who is far away from the hustle and bustle of the world and quietly makes her own music. The clear eyes have not changed with time, but there is a little more determination and persistence.
Years, after all, can not steal the wisdom of the body, but with a little bit of debauchery and love of freedom.
The song is sung in a lonely heart, or dull, or affectionate, or bright, or whimsical, but that may also be the story of you and me.
