Just in the past 520 online Valentine's day, Jay Chou's 2013 "magic Tianlun" concert, which was replayed online, triggered a wave of national memories. The concert, which had no "new idea", attracted more than 50 million netizens from the whole network. The "Jay Chou Concert replay" was once the top of the hot search. Many netizens lamented that my youth is back.
In the corner that the mainstream media did not notice, in Jay Chou's Baidu Post Bar, an old post published by Jay Chou himself in 2007 was promoted to the recommendation position of Baidu Post Bar. Baidu Post Bar in 2007 had far more influence than now. At that time, many artists and stars would communicate with their fans in the post bar, even Jay Chou, who was at the height of the sun, was no exception. This old post has accumulated more than 870000 replies, and Jay Chou's fans come to post it every year. After the replay of 520 concert, another group of new song fans came here and left their footprints in this post.
However, in today's Baidu Post Bar, Jay Chou bar is not the most active discussion of Jay Chou's post bar. If you enter Jay Chou's English name "Jay", there is also a special organization called "old Jay fan bar" in the list. This post bar is known for its purpose of "reason, tolerance and civilization". The head of the post bar is a black-and-white cartoon dog, also known as "dog bar".
However, after seeing the posts in the old Jay fan bar, many people may be confused, which is completely contrary to "reason, tolerance and civilization". There is a lot of discussion about Jay Chou's 520 online concert in the old Jay fan bar. However, the bar friends are not discussing the music itself, but questioning the falsification of data. What's more strange is that many black names of Jay Chou, such as "stuttering" and "big wood", can be seen everywhere in the old Jay fan bar.
That is, when new fans come and want to find an organization to discuss Jay Chou, they will also be stunned by the scene in front of them, and then ask whether the old Jay fan bar is a special place to black Jay Chou? In this regard, some netizens will even reply, "stuttering can't have fans."
However, it is in such a post bar full of Jay Chou's black traffic that there really exists Jay Chou's loyalty in the bar team. Among them, a netizen named "King Jinxin" is a well-known fan.
In August 2021, Jay Chou released the prelude of a song in his new album. According to this 25 second prelude, King Jinxin expanded into a complete song in Jay Chou's style and uploaded it to major platforms, which once triggered a heated discussion among fans. Because the style is so similar to Jay Chou, many people ridicule that real Jay Chou fans are helping Jay Chou release an album. Some netizens who were too busy to watch the excitement forwarded the songs created by King Jinxin to Jay Chou's extranet social account, which was praised by Jay Chou.
All this is enough to prove that King Jinxin, as the owner of the small bar of the old Jay fan bar, is indeed a genuine Jay fan - even if the old Jay fan bar is a black post of Jay Chou.
The old Jay fan bar was founded many years later than Jay Chou bar.
In 2011, Jay Chou released his 11th album exclamation point, On Jay Chou's music road so far, "exclamation point!" This album has become a watershed in the differences among the fans. I like Jay Chou's first ten albums and conflict with exclamation point After that, the people of all the albums were called the "top ten parties". Compared with ordinary fans, they were more stubborn and could not accept the change of Jay Chou's music style, and thought that Jay Chou's talent was exhausted The quality of has declined seriously.
But in Jay Chou's bar at that time, the fraternity party with the concept of seeking common ground while reserving differences still prevailed. Although it is different from today's fan economy, some bar friends' criticism of Jay Chou's music has still been opposed by most bar friends. In this case, for the exclamation point Extremely dissatisfied fans urgently need a place to communicate - so the old Jay fan bar was born.
In other words, the original members of the old Jay fan bar are actually fans who ran away from Jay Chou bar.
Exclamation point The controversy over this album continues today, not to mention how fierce Jay Chou fans would have been ten years ago. With the establishment of the old Jay fan bar, people who are infatuated with Jay Chou's past style and resist the change of Jay Chou's music style have gradually found a habitat.
Baidu Post Bar itself has an irreversible development law. When the post bar is small and has few staff, all kinds of professionals gather here to produce a large number of high-quality posts, and the atmosphere in the bar is harmonious. When the post bar gradually develops and grows, it will go out of control. At the beginning of the establishment of the old Jay fan bar, the comments and views of bar friends are relatively objective, and many bar friends with music theory knowledge join it. They will not advocate Jay Chou without brains, but they will not be brainless. The six words "reason, tolerance and civilization" are not exaggerated to describe the old Jay fans at this time.
However, this period of stability did not last long. In order to compete with Jay Chou bar, which had more staff and higher popularity at that time, the old Jay fan bar began to find a basis for the rationality of its own existence. They emphasized that Jay Chou's exclamation point Good fans are brain powder and blindly pursue Jay Chou. These people have lost their reason. The fans of the old Jay fan bar are the real fans who can objectively evaluate the music itself and understand the music. At the same time, they began to call the brain powder in their mouth "Baomi", which is homonymous with "Baomi", so as to ridicule, and call themselves "old dog", representing old spicy and mature.
Under this guiding ideology, it is almost impossible for netizens who join the old Jay fan bar to praise Jay Chou's "bud rice", which makes the painting styles of the old Jay fan bar and Jay Chou bar present two completely opposite styles. With exclamation point The controversy caused by it is getting bigger and bigger, and the staff of old Jay fan bar is also increasing.
In a sense, the opposition of fan groups between Jay Chou bar and old Jay fan bar has a wonderful connection with the development of the times. Around 2012, the word "loser" quickly became popular on the Internet, and the source of fermentation was Li Yi in Baidu Post Bar. Behind this self mockery phenomenon, there are factors that social contradictions are accumulating, and Baidu Post Bar has become a place for netizens to vent their negative energy.
Just in this period, the old Jay fan bar entered a stage of gradual development and growth. A considerable number of Jay Chou's young fans, after joining the old Jay fan bar, were infected by the atmosphere in the bar and began to be proud of criticizing Jay Chou and show their unique identity.
The old Jay fan bar has always been laissez faire and free, so that the speech in the bar gradually breaks through the bottom line. Slowly, "stuttering", "big wood" and other black names began to flood in the bar. In particular, these fans who claim to love Jay Chou are not ashamed to say that Jay Chou is black, but proud.
During this period, the management team of old Jay fan bar also tried to stop this trend. However, around 2011, Xu Song was extremely popular on the Internet, and the remarks about Xu Song's plagiarism of Jay Chou can be seen everywhere. In Baidu Post Bar at that time, there was a constant curse war between Jay Chou and Xu Song's fan groups. Affected by this, the old Jay fan bar once became the gathering place of Jay Chou's black powder.
It is in this strange development process that the old Jay fan bar not only gathered a large number of Jay Chou fans, but also attracted a large number of Jay Chou Black fans. These two forces gradually reached a balance in the later development.
Some people may ask why the old Jay fans full of Jay Chou's black powder can attract many young Jay Chou fans?
On June 24, 2016, Jay Chou released his 14th album "Jay Chou's bedside story". This digital album is on sale on the Internet platform, and fans can buy it by joining the guild. On the guild list, the old Jay fan bar even ranked third for a time. On Jay Chou's ability to spend money, the old Jay fan bar is not much inferior to other fan organizations. Considering that the old Jay fan bar has not been established for a long time, and the number of people in the bar is far from being compared with other organizations, it is really surprising that it can achieve such brilliant results.
With the "real achievements" bought by real gold and silver, the old Jay fan bar has a lot more confidence in criticizing Jay Chou. They firmly believe that their criticism stems from their love for Jay Chou, and Jay Chou's music level is falling on a cliff. They began to reject the praise of Jay Chou more, and thought that the black name of Jay Chou was the embodiment of love.
This complex emotion, which is difficult for ordinary people to understand, has gradually gone crazy with Jay Chou's marriage and children and the bumper harvest of his love career. Slowly, the old Jay fan bar's criticism of Jay Chou's music gradually evolved into criticism and even abuse of Jay Chou himself. Whenever Jay Chou shares his comfortable life, his collection of luxury goods and the latest music works, he will be subjected to endless abuse. This curse also affected the people around Jay Chou, including long-term cooperation musicians such as Fang Wenshan and Huang YuXun. The old Jay fan bar not only did not prohibit Jay Chou's black name, but also allowed it to evolve into a situation out of control.
Some people have tried to analyze the reasons for the development of old Jay fan bar. One view is that Jay Chou's success has made many people feel betrayed. They believe that Jay Chou no longer pays attention to music, betraying his fans and his love for music. In addition, the overall atmosphere of Baidu Post Bar is developing towards negative energy. Old Jay fan bar has become a place for these frustrated people to vent their negative emotions.
When young netizens who don't know the truth accidentally break into the old Jay fan bar, these people will be instilled with the same idea, express their love for Jay Chou with a black name, and think it's all right.
The old Jay fan's out of control is irreversible. After becoming a living online subculture Observatory here, other artists, such as Xu Song, Wang Leehom, Jacky Xue, Deng Ziqi, etc., have become the targets of malicious slander and trampling. The black claims of these artists are also unrestrained, and all negative news gathers here. As a result, it is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish which people are anti black and which are watching fun.
Compared with the rice circle now criticized by the public, is this not another form of rice circle?
When bar friends talk about the topic, it is no longer the music itself, but the personal attack on artists. Has the concept of "reason, tolerance and civilization" of old Jay fans changed its flavor? Unless you allow your friends to malicious personal attacks, it can be considered as tolerance in another dimension.
Perhaps, not many people remember the original intention of the old Jay fan bar. Only when Jay Chou's new fans accidentally break into the old Jay fan bar and are stunned by the scenery in front of them, will this period of time be occasionally remembered by the old posters.
