After Taiwan returned to Chinese rule, Ko-yue Records hired Chou to head up its lyrics department, and Chou began writing songs with Yang San-lang. Together the two of them produced more than 20 hits, including "Lonely Flower in Love," "Autumn Winds, Night Rains," "Thinking of Home" and "Taipei at Midnight."
光復之後，歌樂唱片公司邀請周添旺掌管文藝部門，創作力旺盛的周添旺與作曲家楊三郎合作，寫出「孤戀花」、「秋風夜雨」、「思念故鄉」、「台北上午零時」等二十多首膾炙人口的歌曲。
