One is writer Chen Huilong, who often weaves jazz into his novels, and the other is Patrick, the editor-in-chief of "Jazz Life Magazine." These two individuals, from different fields, are the operators of "Jazz Style WiJazz Records," brought together by their shared passion for jazz. After collaborating on an event themed around well-known jazz musicians like Billie Holiday and Charlie Parker two years ago, they came up with many more interesting ideas but struggled to find a suitable venue, leaving these plans on hold. Then, in October of last year, the Kaohsiung Pop Music Center officially opened and invited music-related organizations to settle in. Patrick seized the opportunity to apply, and after more than six months of planning, a friendly jazz hub for musicians finally took shape by the docks of Kaohsiung in midsummer. Patrick noted that there were relatively few jazz enthusiasts in central and southern Taiwan, and both musicians and listeners needed time to cultivate an appreciation—"Choosing to establish ourselves in the Pop Music Center was to ensure that jazz occupies a place in the music scene of southern Taiwan."
