1987 年 -1990 87 years late, Xu Wei, a soldier and as literature and art in the Shaanxi Military soldiers in the army, he continued to practice hard guitar skills, practicing for up to 8-10 hours a day, but had the piano too ecstasy and discipline by the Department over .88, the Xu Wei exposed to the rock by a huge impact, since they wanted to become a musician .89 summoned to enter, he is responsible for publicity Fourth Military Medical University, the band once again rejected a special call to university opportunities. in the army three years, he self-study music theory, composition and acoustics, and law and try to create a number of popular songs.
1990 年 -1993 the end of 90 years, Xu Wei demobilized from the army, was assigned to either a secondary school music teacher, but he had never gone to some classes, but to start a professional guitarist's career, when he's guitar skills have been perfected, Xi'an is well-known music scene one of the best guitarist in .91 , Xu Wei to lend him money to buy the expensive guitars, had to run down shop and go to karaoke bars in Fujian money, but that the loss of his individuality, no creativity at all of the mechanical performance really can not stand, only two months after , in turn returned to Xian, Xu Wei at the time speaking, no income, economic pressure, many people said he chose this life do not understand, but he still go its own way, all day at home listening to music, practicing. the parents and the support of friends, he spent three years of poor but does not compromise, and create a the song is full of life and social pressures in the face when the music is still cherished dreams and aspirations.

94 years 8 May, and .94 In November, the > April 1995, Xu Wei and Red production of social contract.
1995 年 11 months, the work vast. most of his time writing songs is to go on the road .10 years old the first time away from home, 17-year-old admitted to college, then dropped out of school, came to Beijing 87 years alone, 88 years, recorded early works West of Yang Guan years of work as time of lonely people is shameful
1994 factory built aircraft in 1997 alone

people is shameful that 94 years in the spring, the air has a rich atmosphere, everyone seems to stand being in a flood, waiting for the impact from the desire. Zhang Chu is also exposure to which, seen from the side, but after the surging crowd, he vaguely remembered the life of many of the screen; a little simple romantic, perhaps coarse clothes, people smile was still no end, to live is not easy, there are many naive. He quietly thought, there are some good things, eventually gone.
he decided to find a more sincere and simple texture, not from the vent to his emotions, but from thinking and observation, but also want people to get his music more real experience, not too simple romance. He wanted more of a narrator , and the people stand together, do not want to stand too far away place.
found something, the music also had a very strong Some people will want to save the lost, beautiful precious memories for people to rediscover the value of living.
warm spring of inspiration, as well as the illusion of pain also determined ordinary hh all, love can not stop the batter - Cotton experience two or three years later, I finally found the lonely people do not shame, shame and love for music did not insist!
people from the surrounding bits of feelings, music is clear in the eyes of a pair of Zhang Chu, projected a kind of state of the burning gaze of life, the hypocrisy was so hot back, strong enough to allow greed of the status quo. But Zhang Chu has never condemned, it is high above those of the specialized knowledge, he just let the music honest love and light, full of wild animals like forests, the lost child can see the stars, and in the open door of the hut there are real people can embrace.
Zhang Chu hear the lyrics, maybe you will find fragments can not be coherent, or between lovers may not find sensational words, it is because in the fragmented real world, Zhang Chu evanescent love the eyes, such as scenes of farce, there is no rational logic, it is also shown is his, you, me, everyone the fate of being caught, love, or out of focus in the future.
mirror, as Zhang Chu's songs, reflecting not only the small, customary, familiar, tired face, the existence of life is really volatile, drift quiet with Che. are looking out from the sky and the ocean, ocean wrapped in one day. If you are cold, it is because the taste of mercy is always too firm and not clean.
Zhang Chu's work is too inappropriate to say more, the real wisdom, believed to be from these poems, you can emerge, and mean small people can also Zhang Chu's music, from a more humble start again.
