Jay Chou - Chapter 7 of Night refers to December 1983?

Jay Chou, who always brings surprises to everyone, has created another genre of detective and suspense music! The second wave of the title song "Chapter 7 of the Night" was composed by Jay Chou and written by Huang Junlang. It uses a gorgeous and suspenseful style to metaphor the story of the famous detective Sherlock Holmes in 1983. The MV was in the hands of screenwriter Jay Chou and became a suspenseful blue. "The Rose Murder Case" stars Jay Chou himself as the detective, Yu Hao from Nan Quan Mama plays the detective's assistant, and Warhead plays the suspect. Director Zhou said: "Of course you have to shoot a detective story in the UK to have the flavor!" So in one sentence, In the cold early spring of late March this year, a large team of staff came to London, England, the hometown of Detective Sherlock Holmes, and spent 4 million to shoot this unprecedented detective blockbuster. Jay Chou also made this MV into a more than 7-minute MV movie version, which is included in the bonus DVD of the new album "Still Fantasy" released in advance on September 5. In addition, there is also the "Thousands of Miles Away" The more than 7-minute MV movie version and 16 minutes of wonderful behind-the-scenes footage of "JAY Detective Secret" are both included. Jay Chou's love for images is fully revealed in this disc!

The sound of the typewriter hurriedly kicked off the show, with clues hidden in Holmes’s diary, gorgeous and decadent classical music, and a tense and suspenseful atmosphere of electronic music. Jay Chou’s soliloquy-style rap transformed into Sherlock Holmes to lead the show. The audience was scratching their heads and looking for the truth of the murder. Jay Chou's deliberately low-pitched hard voice singing paired with the faint soprano hinted at the detective's calmness and the murderer's madness. At the end of the music, Jay Chou's falsetto soared, provoking the fans to follow the weird atmosphere of the music. Tense nerves! This song presents a unique style of film soundtrack that is rare in pop music! The lyrics begin with "It was an alley in 1983, it was sunny in December..." 1983 was the moment Sherlock Holmes was sentenced to death by the author, and it was also the year Jay Chou started playing the piano. Jay Chou, who conceived the structure of the musical story, said: "The whole song is a mystery novel. The content is a diary. Have you ever heard that you can write reasoning into a rap song? I can!"

The story describes a murder in a park in the suburbs of London. The only clue left at the scene is the deceased. A blue rose in the mouth, and a suspiciously escaped young photographer warhead. Detective Jay Chou and his assistant Yu Hao started investigating from Blue Rose, visited flower shops, elderly people, and even went to the library to search for information. They finally found the cafe where the suspect Warhead worked. During the chase, the suspect was injured and ran away. People had no choice but to go back to the coffee shop and ask for the suspect's address, getting closer to the truth step by step... However, what you see is not necessarily the truth. Believing in intuition is the talent of a detective. Jay Chou tells the story in a clever way, and the final stroke of genius will definitely make everyone Everyone is amazed! What’s special is that there isn’t a single lip-sync scene in the entire MV! At the beginning of the MV, the director also designed a movie title to create a suspenseful opening. In order to lay out the plot, Jay Chou also wrote a soundtrack that fits the situation, so the singing version included in the album is different from the 7-minute MV movie version. With the wonderful techniques and the editing of the images, this MV is captivating to watch! It's so ingenious that only Jay Chou, who is a composer, music producer, singer, performer, screenwriter, and director, can do it! The perfect combination of images and songs in "Night Chapter 7" has taken Jay Chou's career as a film director another big step forward!

The MV was shot entirely in the UK, with a shooting time of 4 days, 7 scenes, and a cost of 4 million yuan! This also includes renting out the entire library for filming, renting sports cars and British police cars, and using more than 20 British extras. Such a large amount of money is unprecedented on Music Video! Jay Chou is dressed in a trench coat and a detective hat, while detective assistant Yuhao is dressed in a British academic style. The suspect played by Warhead has the look of a chef in a cafe and a photographer wearing a jacket. Yuhao and Warhead performed under the guidance of Jay Chou. It’s very enjoyable to play with people! In response to the plot, Yuhao wanted to hit Jay Chou's head with a helmet. He did this in front of thousands of Jay Chou's fans. He was so frightened that he apologized to the fans in front of the camera before taking action! Under Jay's instructions, the bitter warhead kept running, jumping off walls, and falling down... He was so angry that he muttered: "It's me who sacrifices his life every time! I quit!" At the same time as he finished saying this, someone from behind Jay shouted to him: "Warhead, you still have to run!" Warhead, a soldier, immediately turned around and said, "No problem!" All the falling shots of the agile Warhead were real guns! Not only did he break his skin, but he also had bruises all over his body! He once stepped on a branch and fell down and joked: "My hands can't play the piano anymore..." The problem is that he can't play in the first place! Total joy in suffering!

In response to the recent incident where Jay Chou's new album "Still Fantasy" was suspected to have been stolen and leaked by a mainland processing factory, Alfa Records has recently verified that there is no direct evidence to confirm that the new song was leaked and was processed in the mainland. The factory's unscrupulous employee outflow has caused trouble and loss of goodwill to the mainland processing factory due to the seriousness of the incident. Alfa Records is deeply sorry for this! We will continue to investigate the truth behind the leak of Jay Chou's new songs and pursue all legal responsibilities.
