Nian Lun(Growth Ring) is an influential theme song from a film/TV drama in the Chinese music industry. Composed and written by the talented songwriter Wang Sulong, and performed by Zhang Bichen, it was first released on June 15, 2015, as an insert song for the TV series The Journey of Flower .
To accurately convey the theme of "unrequited love with heart-wrenching sorrow" in The Journey of Flower , Wang Sulong repeatedly studied the original novel. He integrated Oriental aesthetics with modern pop elements and spent several months completing the creation. In the arrangement, he incorporated traditional Chinese instruments such as the guzheng (a plucked zither) and pipa (a four-stringed lute), and paired them with the piano and string instruments to create an artistic conception of "purity like splashing jade". From the very beginning, the song sets a sorrowful tone that underpins its emotional core. With "annual ring" as the core imagery, the lyrics use metaphors like "fingerprint", "kiss mark" and "tree root" to materialize the passage of time and the accumulation of emotions, which accurately echoes the life-and-death bond between Hua Qiangu and Bai Zihua in the TV series.
Since its release, Growth Ring has consistently ranked among the top on major music platform charts. It has become a popular song for karaoke (KTV) and a regular feature in various music variety shows and cover contests. Not only does it carry the emotional memories of The Journey of Flower fans, but it also evokes strong resonance among audiences of different age groups due to its profound reflections on time, love, growth and separation. It has thus become a rare classic in the Chinese music industry.
