"It's a special graduation gift"

As music lovers, 18-year-old Zhang Jiashuo and Zhou Zijian have always wanted to write the bits and pieces of the three years of high school into the song, using this special way to bid farewell to the campus and commemorate youth, which is not only for the students of the graduation season, but also for the graduation gift of the alma mater.

In March 2021, Zhang Jiashuo and Zhou Zijian began to use their spare time to write melodies and polish songs. Recalling the creative process, the two said that they thought of the scenes of life on campus, the electronic teaching films played on time in the classroom on Sunday night, the deep friendship cultivated by the same window in the past three years, and the group photos of classmates and teachers on the class wall... The lyrics poured out with the emotions in our hearts: "During that time, it was our own memory film." ”

In the last class before the college entrance examination, the students said goodbye in tears and memories, and agreed to meet and meet often. Infected, Zhou Zijian wrote this lyric: "The day when we agree to see each other again, there will not be only greetings, the best of us, the last vow, time will not fade." ”

The song lasted two months from the beginning of the creation to the completion of the production, the teachers of the Youth League Committee of Dezhou No. 2 Middle School and the students of the campus TV station assisted them in making the song into a music MV, and published it on major video platforms, which aroused widespread attention, with more than 200,000 hits, and many people expressed their resonance from the song in the comments below the work.

"Everything can be sung"

Zhang Jiashuo and Zhou Zijian are well-known "musical talents" in school, and they are good at guitar, piano and other instruments, and have been trying to compose lyrics and compositions since the age of 14. At present, both are music singers and singers on the NetEase cloud platform, of which Zhang Jiashuo has published more than 10 more mature works.

In the school, Dezhou No. 2 Middle School provides sufficient space for students to tap their interest potential and cultivate comprehensive quality. The two serve as vice presidents of the school's music club and often perform on stages such as campus art festivals and art performances. "The activities I attended on campus, the clubs I performed, and the friends who had a common musical hobby and encouraged each other made my high school life colorful." Zhang Jiashuo said.

Zhang Jiashuo and Zhou Zijian like to record life with songs, in their opinion: "Everything can be sung." "They use flowing staves and long and short lyrics to tell their stories and express their joy and love."

Just like this song "Two One Year of Flowers", Zhang Jiashuo's other song "6:30 pm" is a portrayal of his mood when he returned home from junior high school: "The sunset in the distance unveils a layer of memories, people talk about the difficulties of life, a year has passed another season, and I am still going to the next destination." ”

"There are a whole bunch of plans to be implemented"

For Zhang Jiashuo and Zhou Zijian, this song, as a node of time, not only means the end of the high school era, but also represents that they are about to start a new journey.

Using music as a medium and bond, in middle school, the two met many like-minded friends, including drummers, guitarists, lead singers and so on. The teenagers formed a "band" with an irregular form, and when there was a performance, they gathered together to rehearse over and over again, and the success of the performance made everyone feel full of a sense of accomplishment.

About to enter the university, they dream of forming a real band on the college campus, absorbing new partners, standing on a new platform, trying new styles, creating new songs, the two have a lot of plans in their hearts to achieve, take off from here, and the two hope to make music shine in their lives all the time.
