Jeff Chu (Enneagram 6) [S07-008]Sixes have excellent analytical minds, are great strategists, troubleshooters, problem-solvers, and of course, see worst-case scenarios that other people don't see. The passion of the Six is fear which is often experienced as anxiety…anxiety that the unexpected could happen at any time. But once they launch a mental narrative in their head of all that could go wrong, these fictional stories can take on lives of their own and can grow and crowd out what's actually happening.

王彙筑，出身於嘉義的唱作人，音樂類型以Folk與Indie Pop為主，歌詞風格時而隱晦、時而趣味，就當你以為她是一個不折不扣的文青時，她會猝不及防地來則冷笑話回擊。
2012年以演唱電影《女朋友。男朋友》插曲〈越美麗越危險〉出道；2014年發行個人首張創作專輯《少女維拉》，遂入圍第26屆金曲最佳新人獎。乘著這股豐滿的創作能量，2016年王彙筑以一人大樂隊之姿，闖進當時中國最大華語原創舞台《中國好歌曲》，躋身羽泉戰隊三強。
然而，歷經生活及工作大幅變動，王彙筑的音樂歷程沉寂了一段時間，所幸拾起的生活痕跡、零散碎片，都能透過音樂找到宣洩出口。在2020年，完成了最接近自己模樣的EP《Dear Sappy》，同時入圍新加坡 Freshmusic Awards 年度最佳 EP 的肯定。
王彙筑將重新面對自己的過程，不斷整理、反芻、輸出，在2021年發行了個人睽違多年的創作專輯《FAC:E》，不僅保有過去擅長的民謠，更涵蓋 Indie Pop, Synth Pop 等風格內容，這是一張從檢視自己、轉而面向大眾，具有企圖心的音樂作品。

邁向而立的路上，王彙筑歷經了生命的圓滿與脆弱，也曾為自己的定位感到茫然，面對家人關係、情人朋友、自我認同與社會期待等議題，她不停反芻、整理，花了將近八年的時間，沉澱出《FAC:E》這張個人情感飽滿紮實的作品。這也是她初次在音樂作品裡正式露面，意味著重新調整好腳步，坦然接納內在自我，更能昂揚嶄露蛻變後的自己。
此外，王彙筑也是首次參與專輯的完整製作過程，她直呼在每個環節都能大有斬獲。王彙筑坦言，與專輯音樂製作統籌Everydaze合作時，他總會拋出令人耳目一新的獨到見解，讓她能將腦海中的畫面轉化為詞曲，和過往經驗緊密連結。在詞曲創作的部分，王彙筑更「突破心魔」，與緩緩樂團的主唱Coco共同創作出〈城市海〉。對兩人來說，創作是件私密且赤裸的過程，不過與製作人Thomas、Everydaze四人共同合作時，卻意外地快速譜出了旋律線。歌曲中兩人的聲線交織，有如漫步在「懸日」下的好友，給予彼此祝福、聊著近況的對話。
專輯前導單曲〈當我站在你面前〉的創作靈感雖源於親情關係，不過亦能套用在各種人際相處中，大多人時常選擇隱藏部分自己，長久下來，關係便產生了縫隙，進而讓彼此感覺更加疏離。〈Totoro〉一曲則是特別詢問日本友人，以日語歌詞唱出日本經典動畫《龍貓》的劇情，與家人之間的情感相互呼應。王彙筑也將自己的生活哲學，唱進〈山一直都在〉。在爬山以外的日子，她常挾帶著一連串的自我懷疑，如此的心境也寫進了歌詞中，透過木吉他的穩定律動打一帖定心劑，也時時提醒自己：「若有些路來不及走，別強求，因為山一直都在。」
《FAC:E》的裝幀設計，王彙筑也再次與視覺藝術家章芙菱合作，以臉部各個角度的局部呈現及歌詞本的特殊裁切，隨心變換出多樣面貌，也可由歌迷自行排列組合專屬貼紙，完成每個人專屬的《FAC:E》。王彙筑也透露，原先在完成這張專輯後，本有暫時休息的打算，卻在專輯的製作過程中，以及近期表演與歌迷的回饋，再次提醒了自己創作的單純與初衷，

As Jeff approached high school, he realized he was gay. Over time, while he prayed for God to change who he was, Jeff threw himself into his work to escape his inner turmoil and realized he was a gift...
