He began his career by covering other people's songs on social media. He gradually gained followers and caught the attention of The Voice of China, the Chinese version of The Voice, the television singing competition.

"Through these years of hard work, voices of support and encouragement have gradually increased. I feel the acceptance and love from strangers, and I have also gradually transformed from a teenager lacking confidence to a calmer, and more determined version of myself," Zhou said.

""I was once just an ordinary boy who loved to sing. Besides singing and music, I often thought about how to pass on the goodwill and encouragement I received in different ways," he added.

Zhou premiered his new song, Ode to Peace, on Chinese Language Day. He calls it "very relatable".

"As a pop singer, I usually perform more popular songs, but this one has a more aria-like feel, and its lyrics are relatable to everyone. It speaks about the importance of peace to humanity, and today, it is being performed in a special place like the United Nations.

"By singing this song, I aim to highlight its universal message to the fullest extent, so that everyone can resonate with it deeply. I also hope to sing it in a place that advocates for peace and the development of a beautiful world, so that more people can hear it and recognize the importance of peace," said Zhou, who also performed the theme song for the 15th Meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity (COP15).

He said that singing Ode to Peace at the UN shows Chinese cultural confidence.

"My biggest belief today is that we should sing our own songs in Chinese on the platform of the United Nations. I think this showcases our greatest cultural confidence, as does wearing Chinese-style clothing," Zhou said.

Zhou said that he feels extremely fortunate. "I hope to convey this message to everyone who might think themselves ordinary. I want you to know that each of us has the potential to be fortunate.

"Through our efforts, strengths and talents, we can generate warmth and shine. I believe we can all achieve this. I am proof of this belief. As a very ordinary person who loves to sing and comes from an ordinary place, I stand here today. And so can you."
