【桃花開在周杰倫】The Peach Blossom named Jay Chou(English writing below)
上星期的Youtube影片中,我談到周杰倫前世如何修到大桃花,以及桃花和個人財富的關係。
2019年9月11日2300H,久未發新歌的周杰倫推出新歌單曲《說好不哭》,兩天內就破一千萬的流量,刷下華語樂壇的新紀錄,而且在超過十個國家,包括美國、澳洲、韓國、德國、新馬港台等,都衝上了Youtube發燒影片第一名。
相比之下,蔡依林去年年尾推出睽違四年的新專輯,打破了傳統歌手唱情歌的套路,其中七首歌都有概念新穎、議論性極高的MV,但影片流量卻不敵這次「周五」的合作。
我不是蔡依林的歌迷,但她這次為專輯的付出真的讓我刮目相看 - 回顧蔡依林出道至今的「黑歷史」MV《怪美》,邀請吳君如一起拍向80、90年代香港電影致敬的MV《腦公》,邀小S拍的MV《紅衣女孩》,以及今年榮獲台灣金曲獎年度歌曲獎的《玫瑰少年》等等。
我個人很喜歡這首《玫瑰少年》。此歌以轟動一時的「葉永鋕事件」為背後故事:葉永鋕,台灣人,國中生,因不同的性別氣質而遭到同學霸凌,不敢在下課時間去上廁所。十五歲那年,葉永鋕在上課時,提前離開教室去上廁所,後來被發現傷重倒臥血泊中,送醫後不治死亡。(取之:维基百科)
而在今年五月,台灣成為第一個將同性婚姻合法化的亞洲國家,讓《玫瑰少年》更具有代表性。
再看看周杰倫這次的新歌《說好不哭》,如果你也覺得「周杰倫是我的青春」,這MV用的許多「情懷梗」,作詞人方文山,神秘來賓五月天阿信,必會讓你驚喜連連。
對我而言,這首歌延續著周氏情歌的曲風,MV拍法沒有突破,並沒有像蔡依林的專輯有那麽強大的創意和正面能量。
可是蔡依林這次別出心裁,影片流量和賺到的錢也不少,卻依然亞於周杰倫。
這一切的現象隱藏著過去世的因果。
據我根本上師聖尊蓮生活佛開示,周杰倫前世修密教的敬愛法,想必他持了天文數字的敬愛咒。他八字寫著,這一世的寫歌本領就是他修來的眾桃花投影。
這桃花非同凡響,改變了華語樂壇對流行歌的審美觀。這次《說好不哭》的MV流量、新歌銷量等,都名列前茅,新歌上線的24小時內,總銷量548.5萬張,售額1645.6萬元人民幣(S$3.2m)。
蔡依林全身都是重桃花相,但就算如此,她和幾個星期前出新歌《對的時間點》的林俊傑,也完全被周杰倫比下去。
一些聰明的Youtuber在《說好不哭》上線24小時內火速推出了自己的翻唱影片,鋼琴彈奏版,歌詞版等。這是很明智的作法,因為不用花錢就能夠沾個邊,借一借周杰倫的桃花來旺自己。如果周杰倫的八字及歌曲旺他們的八字,就會更有效。
網路搜索,加上娛樂新聞頻道的新聞報導,他們的頻道便會迅速增加訂閱和流量。
寫了這麼多,有三點要提醒大家:
1)有幸得到師尊灌頂的敬愛尊咕嚕咕咧佛母和愛染明王法的同門,請勤修此法。
有眾桃花,貴人顯著,做什麼事情真的會比較容易,賺錢也可以比別人快。我個人的修法領悟,如果抱著利益眾生的菩提心來修,效果會更不可思議。
2) 要賺錢,你速度要快。
錢如流水走很快不等人,你要懂得觀察局勢,學學那些Youtubers的掙錢速度及魄力。如果還是不會, 批八字看風水時,可請教你的師父如何迅速為自己增強桃花。
3)往對的方向,用對的方法努力,能改自己和別人的命
無論你八字中有沒有眾生緣,你要有錢,有敬愛的魅力,你都得努力地去結眾生緣,持續地去佈施,慢慢地去積累。因為再多的眾生緣,也會有用完的一天。
以上的歌手都是努力的典範,包括那些Youtubers。因為努力而產生的影響力,能引導他人改自己的運勢,你的功德可加倍。
不要一日一日地這樣荒廢青春,別把時間都給了家人,而吝於給他人。佈施要用心思,要不然,有一天福報見底時,你和你的家人就會出現資糧荒的現況了。
「聰明人將精力用於預防和積累,而蠢蛋則寄望於補救。」
..........................
In my Youtube video last week, I talked about how Jay Chou cultivated his great Peach Blossoms in his past life and the correlation between your personal wealth and your Peach Blossoms.
On 11 September 2019 2300H, Jay Chou released his much-awaited new song "Won't Cry". His MV crossed 10 millions views within 48 hours on Youtube, setting a new record for Chinese music entertainment scene, and was the #1 trending MV in over 10 countries, including USA, Australia, Korea, Germany, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong and Taiwan. His latest single also crashed Chinese music streaming site QQ music in less than a hour after its release.
In comparison, Jolin Tsai launched her new concept album end of last year, after a hiatus of 4 years. The album broke out of the conventional love ballads typical of Mandopop. 7 songs in this album were launched on Youtube with very creative and artsy music videos, which attracted much online discussion.
Yet the views on her MV cannot be compared with Jay Chou's latest MV.
While I am not a fan of Jolin Tsai, I applaud her effort for this album. The Ugly Beauty MV talks about the criticisms that Jolin Tsai had received since her debut. The Hubby MV was a salute to Hong Kong movies in the 80s & 90s, with Sandra Wu guest starring. Xiao S was also invited for her Lady in Red MV. The song Womxnly won the Song of the Year in this year's Golden Melody Awards, while this album won Album of the Year.
My personal favourite is the song Womxnly, which was inspired by the sensational story of Yeh Yung-chih, a secondary school Taiwanese student who had been long bullied for his perceived effeminate behaviour and thus, never dared to go to the school toilet at break times. One day, just five minutes before school ended, he was found dead in the school’s restroom in a pool of blood at the age of 15.
In May this year, Taiwan became the first Asian country to legalise same-sex marriage and Womxnly became even more symbolic.
Let's now take a look at Jay Chou's new single Won't Cry. If you also think that "Jay Chou is my youth", the many punchlines in this MV, the lyricist Vincent Fang and the mystery guest Ashin of Mayday will have you grinning in surprise.
To me, while this song is not bad and a continuation of Jay Chou's love ballad style, it does not carry as much creativity and positive energy as Jolin Tsai's Ugly Beauty album. Jay Chou's MV was also pretty similar to many of his past MVs. There was no breakthrough.
Yet, beneath all that we have seen till now, is the karma from many past lives.
My Root Guru, His Holiness Living Buddha expounded that in Jay Chou's past life, he practiced the Magnetization Sadhana of Varjayana, and had recited an astronomical number of the mantra of Love and Respect. As stated in his Bazi, his songwriting talent this lifetime is a reflection of his cultivated Peach Blossoms of Mass Appeal.
This is an extraordinary Peach Blossom, as it rewrote the judgment standard of Mandopop. The viewership of Jay Chou's Won't Cry MV and sales volume of the single are just as astounding. Within 24 hours of release, his new song sold 5.485 million copies online and raked in S$3.2million.
The entire physical appearance of Jolin Tsai spells of heavy Peach Blossom of mass appeal. However, with Jay Chou in the picture, both she and JJ Lin Junjie who released a new single The Right Time 3 weeks ago paled in comparison.
Some clever Youtubers quickly uploaded their own covers, in less than 24 hours of Jay Chou's new song release. There were cover songs, piano versions, and lyric version. This is a very smart way of leveraging on Jay Chou's Peach Blossom luck for FREE. Works best if the song and Jay Chou’s Bazi are compatible with their Bazi.
Through online searches and online entertainment channels who report about the covers, the Youtubers get to boost their subscriber volumes and viewership at a much faster rate.
These are the 3 points I wish to highlight to everyone after writing so much:
1) To my fellow Dharma brothers and sisters who are fortunate enough to receive our Root Guru's Dharma empowerment of Kurukullā and Rāgarāja, please cultivate this Sadhana diligently.
When you have Peach Blossom of Mass Appeal, your benefactors are prominent and everything that you do in life gets easily done, even earning money is faster for you. My personal experience is that if you practice this Sadhana with the Bodhicitta heart to benefit sentient beings, the effects will be incredible.
2) If you make money, you must be speedy.
Money waits for no man. You have to know how to observe the situations and learn the money-making speed and drive of those Youtubers. If you do not know how, seek the advise of your Chinese Metaphysics practitioner, when getting your Bazi analysed or Feng Shui audit done.
3)Move in the right direction with the right method, and you can change your life and others' too.
Regardless your Bazi has mass appeal affinity or not, to have money, to have charisma of Love and Respect, you must be diligent in forming mass positive affinities. Learn to give and accumulate your way through. For no matter how many mass affinities you have, they get expedited over time.
The celebrities and Youtubers I mentioned above are examples of diligence.
When your hard work brings you the ability to influence, you will be able to guide others to improve their luck, be it you are conscious of it or not. And that doubles up your merits.
Don't squander your youth by living aimlessly. Don't blindly give all your time to your family and be miserly in giving your time to others.
Constant giving requires thought, otherwise when your good fortune hits rock bottom, you and your family will face a dire drought of life resources.
"The smart one spends his effort in prevention and accumulation, while the fool puts his hope in salvaging. "

【三問三答】
Some questions I always get asked:
1) Is your Destiny Analysis very brief or specific?
Clients who have had their Bazi read by me had never complained of my analysis being brief.
After our first consultation, a young man recently told me he felt underprepared in terms of questions, responses and knowledge in front of me.
(Actually I find him okay.)
Take a look at my album of testimonials from clients and workshop participants.
Why do you think some of them write lengthy testimonials for me?
These are the people who have experienced positive transformations when they followed my advice.
They don't get extra incentive from me from writing all these.
This is their way of paying me back and helping others.
If I had been brief, superficial or vague, you think my smart and educated clients will bother?
A more intelligent question to ask me is:
"Can you solve my problem?"
我不打沒有把握的戰。
You probably have spent enough time trying to figure out the deadknot in your life.
If I can't solve your problem, I will not take up your case.
And when I can solve your problem, compared to other Feng Shui masters that you may have consulted, then don't worry your pretty head off whether I will be brief or specific.
不管是白貓還是黑貓,抓到老鼠就是好貓。
Whether black or white, the cat that catches the rat is a good cat.
As long as the solution works, and is simple to implement,
Don't get tricked by the illusion of consultation time - longer time must be better value for money.
Being taken for a merry-go-round with no end result is frustrating.
If the Feng Shui practitioner cannot make it, 1 minute with him/her remains a waste of money and time.
In any case, my Bazi consultation time is 1.5 hour and 2 hours for Feng Shui audits.
I also cover 10-13 other areas in your Bazi , apart from your issue at hand.
.
2) Do you provide reports?
Never did, never will.
I trust that you, as a responsible and self-loving adult, can write your own notes.
I'm a patient person. I will give you time to write.
One client told me that she rather write her own notes, as previously, she couldn't comprehend what the other Feng Shui Master wrote in her report. It was too technical for her.
While I'm patient, I'm also particular.
If I do not see you writing down important details, I will stop the entire consultation till you jot it down.
Don't tell me that you can remember.
You may not and I'm not going to risk my reputation of being detailed for your callousness. Most importantly, I take every destiny very seriously.
If in front of me, you are flippant about your destiny, don't think it's important to write down when you do not know better than me, then there is no motivation for me to continue the consultation.
.
3) After a Destiny Analysis, do I still need to come back to you every year?
So you got a thorough health check up done this year, does that mean you don't have to do it anymore?
After getting your whole Bazi read, the next kind of reading you should seek is known as 流年運程, Annual Luck Analysis.
Some people think that this service is our way of further"monetizing" our clients.
#rollrolllrollmyeyes
People's goals change every year.
You want to start a business.
You want to start a family.
You want to branch out your business.
Your child had done well last year, you want to know what else you should do to help him for his PSLE.
You don't know if you should change your company.
You want to get a divorce.
You want to...
An annual luck analysis helps you to stay on track of your previous goals, and provides a yearly breakdown on how to get maximum results with the least minimal effort and obstacles.
During the consultation, I also help to highlight to client Ma the potential opportunities that will happen that year so that they won't miss out due to ignorance.
In some Bazi, they may have a bad luck period eg from 2015-2020, a good 5 years.
Does that mean everything they do will be futile?
But life continues to happen, what can they do?
This is where a Annual Luck Analysis comes in.
Out of the 5 bad years, there's bound to be a year that is more promising, there's bound to be solutions to get around things.
By going microscopic, we will always, always have a chance to turn the tide to our favour.
Never never never give up.
.
I don't make much small talk during consultations.
I understand that money can be limited for some of you.
When you take the good faith to invest in me, I see it as my duty to live up and beyond your expectations, instead of chit chatting.
Don't misinterpret it as me being unfriendly.
I can answer some doubts you may have before meeting me, but there is a limit to how much I will clarify.
I can't be helping you if you overthink and get too insecure about Chinese Metaphysics. You have to solve that yourself before you consult anyone. There's a reason why I wrote 400 over posts and 60+ Lives.
Your money and my time are both scarce resources.
So let's invest it in the right person.
.
p.s I accidentally highlighted and pasted a single sentence over this entire post in my Iphone. I had wanted to copy the post into my FB.
I literally freaked out for a few seconds. Immediately I goggled for a way to undo the paste. I wanted my post back!
Guys, the solution is to SHAKE your Iphone. A Undo pop-up will appear. #notjoking #itsavedmylife
Moral of the story: never let fear overtake our ability to solve a problem effortlessly.
everything must go album 在 Gregory 河國榮 Facebook 的最讚貼文
我是國榮。來自澳洲昆士蘭省,讀中學時成績非常好,分數已足夠在大學選讀任何一科。當時我希望成為一名醫生,因為可以幫助他人。我在新南威爾斯大學讀醫科,第一年是住在雪梨北區一個朋友家中,第二年入住大學國際宿舍,宿舍規定最少有半數是留學生,不是澳洲人。最先兩年結識了不少香港、新加玻、馬來西亞的朋友,與他們很合得來,不過最重要是入住宿舍後,便遇到了香港的流行歌曲。有一天我行經走廊時,聽到一些很悅耳的音樂,我便問同學這是甚麽歌曲及可否借給我欣賞,他便借了給我。我已忘記是Leslie還是Alan的歌,但肯定是其中一位。因為很喜歡這些歌曲,便到唐人街購買,後來一邊聽歌一邊看歌詞,因此慢慢地學識了很多中文字。
因為喜歡唱歌,所以在大學的同學活動,開始演唱中文歌,也曾參加香港學生會舉辦的歌唱比賽,參賽歌曲是「愛的根源」,結果獲得亞軍。我很清楚記得,國際宿舍為了文化交流,每年舉辦一次國際晚宴,希望不同種族的學生可以表演和分享文化。Leslie在一九八五年 唱Monica獲得獎項,那是一首我很喜歡的歌曲,所以在文化交流晚會我便選擇唱Monica。當時同學覺得很驚奇,我怎可能唱Monica。我是跟着錄影帶,學習他的舞步和唱歌技巧。我不停地在公眾地方練習,其他同學看到我很用心練習,也過來幫助我。在台上表演時有幾位同學為我伴舞,當晚演出非常成功。
一九八五年Leslie和幾位香港天皇巨星,來澳洲開演唱會。演唱會的主辦公司,需要義務司機,朋友問我能否當義務司機。我答應了,後來知道是當Leslie的司機。有一天他放假不用排練,我們便駕車往坎培拉,當日天氣多雲有微雨,甚麽也看不清楚,喝過咖啡後便離開,回程是Leslie駕駛,他的英語非常好,途中我們愉快地暢談,這次旅程對我來說是很重要的事情。
一九八六年Alan到來澳洲,我又當了他的司機。在他入住的酒店,介紹人在偶像面前,誤把我的名字說成河詠麟,當時在偶像面前我也不懂怎樣矯正。大約有兩年很多人以為我是河詠麟。他的四位女和音,知道我懂得唱他的歌,所以告訴了他,在排練那天他叫我上台一起唱。認識Leslie 和Alan兩位巨星,對我的影響很大,聽到他們的歌,和看到觀眾的反應,我開始對香港的歌唱發展很重視。
因為常常想着唐人街和唱歌,沒有用功讀書,因此醫科的第三年考試不合格,需要重讀,在一九八六年重讀了三個月便決定退學。
後來做了三份洗碗碟工作,還做了個多月砌磚的工作,我把工作一年多,所得工資儲起來,買了一張單程機票和帶了一千澳元,便到來香港發展。唯一的準備是問一個朋友能否到他的家中居住。他的父親很勉強地答應,但需要收租金。我甚麽準備也沒有,只是刻意買了一張單程機票,是因為不想遇到少許困難便放棄,返回澳洲。
初到香港時甚麼都不認識,沒有計劃,也沒有朋友。我最先是住在廣播道,但我的朋友不是在那裡居住,因為他還在讀書。初來時沒有事做,所以在外面逛了幾天,有一天意外地行到紅磡體育館,中門外有四名男士在吸煙,他們竟然叫我河詠麟。原來他們是Alan的樂隊成員,在一九八六年見過面,但相隔一年,竟然還可以記起我,這就是緣分。當時Alan正在為演唱會排練,他們帶我進去體育館,這樣便再見到Alan。一九八七年的演唱會是三十一場,我看了三十場。本來打算看足三十一場,但是有少許問題出現,因為我住的地方有規定,晚上十時半後便會關門,不會再讓人進出。但演唱會是不會這麽早便完場,每晚看完演唱會,我會行去尖沙嘴,然後再步行回廣播道,然後在公園外的石椅小睡,到五時公園開門便進去睡覺,但最終因捱不住,有一晚沒有去看演唱會。有一次Alan突然問我,今晚可否上台唱歌,我說當然可以,便成為他的嘉賓。我第一次表演Alan十分開心,但第二次他在台上介紹,有一個外國人,唱他的歌十分出色,當他呼喚河詠麟出場,因為我不在場,所以沒有出現。後來他問我為何沒有出現,我便向他解釋原因,他便安排我入住酒店,直到演唱會完結。所以便有第三次呼喚我上台,這是我第二次成為嘉賓跟他一起唱「朋友」,真是十分興奮。到八月他的生日會也有邀請我做嘉賓,其實每一件發生的事情都是有關係的。
後來我在北角僑冠大厦租了一間劏房居住,有一次從北角行到中環,看到一間職業介紹公司的招聘啟示,我便前往應徵。當時職員說我可以教英文,但我不是教師,他認為沒有問題,便介紹我到一間補習社工作。在補習社工作了幾個月,有一位同事看到一張電視台的海報,需要招聘 一個西方人,但要懂得說中文。我致電應徵,他是一位獨立經紀,我說沒有經驗和廣東話也不是很好,他說沒有問題。我便去見一位電視台女監製,她給我一段英文劇本,要我讀出來。因為很緊張,五分鐘都不能出聲,我跟自己說,不嘗試會後侮一生。那一段對白是警官責備下級,責備人一定是很大聲的,所以我便很大聲說出來。當時她正在做自己的事,沒有再理會我,但我的叫聲使她大吃一驚。因為沒有其他外國人給她選擇,她無奈地聘請了我,這套劇集需要兩個西方人,另外一位是當主角,從那時開始,便在電視台工作了二十年。
二零一四年九月我在N o w T V的一個音樂節目做嘉賓,在一間音樂室裡我和三位節目主持人,唱歌和談論音樂。到最近才知道,他們三位是100毛的老闆。到聖誕100毛找我拍攝雜誌封面,我不知為何找我拍攝封面,原來三位老闆是認識我的,只是我自己不知道。
二零一五年八月他們聯絡我,他們有一首歌,問我會否願意演唱,那首歌曲我很熟悉,歌詞十分口語化,應該可以學到的。但當時是星期五,表演是在星期日,只得兩天時間作準備,所以我很用心練習。舞台是有電視屏幕可以看到歌詞,但我盡量避免看電視屏幕,只是有需要時才看一看,便可以放心地唱。能夠上台非常開心,我可以扮了演一個角色,唱一首悅耳和有趣的歌,觀眾很熱鬧和興奮,真是十分難得。我知道這是一生一次,這不是自己可以做到,是他們給我機會。那首歌很受歡迎,而且登上了流行榜。聖誕節前他們聯絡我,表示將會舉辦總選,問我會否參加,我便欣然答應了。當天每位表演者,會有兩首歌曲,在十二月廿六日接到新歌,我從沒有聽過那首歌,是一首說唱歌曲,而且歌詞很陌生,對我來說十分困難,所以我不停地練習了四百多次。當晚表演由Now T V直播,有七十萬人觀看,想不到自己能夠獲得香港區最受歡迎男歌星獎,當宣佈我的名字時,極度開心,無人能想到,唱出真香港的歌曲,是由一個西方人唱出,可以感動到別人。這是天時地利人和,超乎現實,簡直是一個奇蹟。因為那首歌不是我揀選,是別人給我的,練習這首歌時眼睛常常都會充了滿淚水和很感動。
西方人在香港發展演藝事業是十分困難的,機會不多,只能扮演一些無關重要的角色,但我從來沒有想過放棄。五年前我計劃灌錄一張唱片,因為胃酸倒流,把聲帶灼傷,使我聲音變得沙啞,這件事使我非常懊惱,因為辛苦練習多年,卻發生了這個問題,後來我矯正了唱歌方法,問題得以改善,可以繼續唱歌,現在準備為唱片再進行錄音工作。
最近有很多關於少數族裔的事情出現在我身上 ,現在我為一個港台節目做旁白,是關於少數族裔在香港。他們在本地娛樂圈發展是十分困難,因為在一個有九成是同一種族的地方,看電視或電影,也是會看自己的種族,未必會看少數族裔。如果他們幾個人合作,做一個節目,然後在網上發放,是有機會成功。香港有很多少數族裔居住,有些人的中文比我好,他們也愛香港。
我心目中的香港人,是要做香港人做的事,吃香港人吃的食物,關心香港,不看膚色,希望他們也能說廣東話,最重要是覺得香港是自己的家,這便是真正的香港人。
I am Gregory. I hail from Queensland, Australia. During my high school years, my grades were excellent. They were good enough for me to enroll in any subject that I wanted to in university. At that time, I wanted to become a doctor because I could help others. I studied Medicine at the University of New South Wales. In my first year, I lived in my friend’s home located in North Sydney. During my second year, I lived in International House at the university. It was a rule for the school campus to have at least 50 percent overseas students. They cannot be Australians. I met a lot of Hong Kong, Singaporean and Malaysian friends in my first two years. I was able to get along with them very well. But what is most important was that after living in International House, I came across Hong Kong pop music. One day I was walking along the corridors and overheard beautifully melodic music. I asked my classmate what music he was listening to and if he could lend me the music to listen to. He leant it to me.
I have forgotten whether it was the music of Leslie or Alan. But I am sure it was one of them because I really liked that kind of music. I went to Chinatown to buy it. Eventually, I listened to the music as I read the lyrics. In turn, I slowly picked up a lot of Chinese characters.
I attended many different functions to perform Cantonese songs in university because I really liked to sing. I also attended a singing competition organized by the Hong Kong student association. The competition song was ‘Root of Love’. In the end I won second runner-up. I clearly remember International House wanted to organize cultural exchanges so they held international banquets each year. Their hope was for students from different ethnic backgrounds to perform and share their culture.
In 1985, Leslie won an award for singing ‘Monica’. It was a song that I really loved. During the international cultural exchange banquet, I chose to sing ‘Monica’. At that time my classmates were very surprised. How can I sing ‘Monica’? I followed the videos to learn the dance steps and singing techniques. I kept on practicing in public. Other students witnessed how hard I was practicing and came over to help me out. A few classmates became my accompanying dancers as I danced on stage. The performance that night was extremely successful.
Leslie and a group of Hong Kong superstars visited Australia to hold concerts in 1985. The concert organizer needed a voluntary driver. My friends asked me whether I wanted to be the voluntary driver. I accepted the offer. In the end I found out that I would become Leslie’s driver. There was one day when he was on break and did not need to rehearse. We drove to Canberra. It was cloudy and there was light rain on that day. We could not see clearly. After having a coffee, we left. Leslie was next to drive. His English was very good. During the journey back we chatted happily. The trip was very important to me.
In 1986, Alan came to Australia. I was also his driver. Our mutual friend misread my name as “Ho Wing Lun” in front of my idol during his stay at the hotel. I was not able to correct him at the time because Alan (“Wing Lun”) was my idol. Many people thought I was called “Ho Wing Lun” for around two years. His four back-up singers knew I was able to sing Alan’s songs. That was why they told him about it. During rehearsal day, he told me to sing with him on stage. Knowing superstars like Leslie and Alan had a great impact on me. To be able to listen to their songs and to witness the reactions from the audience led me to become interested in a singing career in Hong Kong.
I did not put in a lot of effort in my studies because I always thought of Chinatown and singing. Consequently, I failed my medical examinations in my third year. I had to re-take my subjects. In 1986, I re-took my studies for three months but then I decided to quit school.
In the end I juggled three dish washing jobs and also many months of brick laying work. I saved up a whole year of my salary and bought a one-way ticket to Hong Kong. I also carried $1000 Australian dollars on me. I then went to Hong Kong to develop my career. I only asked my friend whether I could stay at his place as preparation to living in my new homeland. His father reluctantly agreed but had to receive rent. I did not have anything equipped or prepared. I only purposely bought a one-way ticket because I did not want to easily give up when I encountered minor difficulties and return to Australia.
When I first arrived in Hong Kong, I did not know anything. I did not have any plans. I also did not have any friends. Initially, I lived in Broadcast Drive but my friend did not live there because he was still studying. I did not have anything to do at first. That was why I hung around Hong Kong for several days. One day, by coincidence, I came across Hung Hom Coliseum. At the entrance, there were four men smoking. They noticed me and surprisingly called out “Ho Wing Lun”. They were, in fact, members of Alan’s band. We have first met in 1986. Surprisingly, they remembered me after a whole year. That is called fate. At that time, Alan was preparing for his concert. The four men brought me inside the Coliseum. I saw Alan. There were 31 shows in his 1987 concert. I watched 30 of them. I intended to watch all 31 shows but there was a slight problem. There were rules at my guest house. After ten thirty each night, the door to the home will be locked. Nobody was allowed to enter or leave the house. But concerts do not end so early. So, after watching each concert in the evening, I would walk to Tsim Sha Tsui and then walk back to Broadcast Drive. I would sleep on the concreate seats outside the park. When the park opens at five in the morning, I will go in and sleep. Eventually, I was unable to handle it. One night I cannot watch a show. Once Alan asked me “Can you sing on stage tonight?” I told him “Of course I can.” I became his special guest. Alan was extremely happy when I first performed. By the second show, he announced that: “There is a westerner who can sing my songs very well.” He called out my name “Ho Wing Lun!” But because I was not at the scene, I did not show up. Eventually, he asked me why I did not show up. I explained my reason to him. He then arranged a hotel for me to stay at until the end of the concert. That was why he was able to call me out the third time! That was my second time as special guest singing “Friends” with him. It was exhilarating. In August, he introduced me as a special guest at his birthday party. Actually, everything happens for a reason and everything is interconnected.
Soon after, I rented a tiny flat at a building in North Point to live in. I walked from North Point to Central once. I came across a recruitment agency looking to hire. I went in to give it a shot. At that time, the staff said I could teach English but I was not a teacher. The staff said it was not a problem and introduced me to work at a learning center. After working there for a few months, a colleague saw a TV station’s poster. They were looking to recruit a westerner but that person needs to be able to speak Cantonese. I called to give it a try. The person who answered was an independent agent. I told that agent I had no experience and my Cantonese was not very good. The agent told me it was not a problem. I went to see the TV station’s female producer. She gave me an English script and wanted me to read it out. I was so nervous that I did not utter a word in five minutes. I told myself, if I do not try, I will regret it for life. The dialogue depicted a police telling off a subordinate. When you tell someone off, you must be very loud so, I read my lines out very loudly. At that time, the female producer was doing her own work and did not care about me but because I was so loud, I frightened her! As there were no other westerners for her to choose from, she had no choice but to hire me. The TV show required two westerners. The other westerner played the main character. From then onwards, I worked at the TV station for twenty years.
In September 2014, I appeared as a guest on a NowTV music program. I was in a band room with the three show hosts. We sang and discussed music. Only recently, I found out that they were the Founders of 100 Most. When it was Christmas, 100 Most invited me to appear on the cover of their magazine. I did not know why they wanted me to do it – only to find out that the Founders of the magazine already knew who I was! It was just me who did not know that.
In August 2015, 100 Most contacted me and asked me whether I wanted to sing this particular song. I was very familiar with the song lyrics. The lyrics were very colloquial. I should be able to learn it. It was Friday. The performance was on Sunday. I only had two days to prepare for it. That was why I practiced very hard. The stage showcased the lyrics. But I tried my best not to look at them. I would only glance at them when I needed to. I felt more confident and assured as I sang.
I was extremely elated to be able to perform on stage. I can play a role singing a wonderful and amusing song. The audience was super warm and excited. It was a moment to be treasured. I know this can only happen once in my life. It cannot be done by myself. It is because I was given a chance by 100 Most. The song was very popular and hit the charts. Before Christmas, 100 Most contacted me and expressed that there would be a final election of the songs. They asked me whether I would like to participate. I was more than happy to give it a try. On the day of the show, each contestant would have two songs.
On the 26th of December, I received the new song. I have never heard of the song before. It was a rap song. I was very unfamiliar with the lyrics. I found them very difficult. That was why I kept practicing it for more than four hundred times. The show was broadcasted live by NowTV. Around seven hundred thousand people watched the broadcast. I cannot imagine winning the Best Hong Kong Male Singer. When my name was announced, I was extremely delighted. Nobody can imagine that a westerner was able to sing a song about ‘real Hong Kong’. It can touch people. It was something that happened at the right place and at the right time. It was also surreal and a complete miracle. It is because the song was not selected by me. It was given to me by others. My eyes were often wet from practicing this song. I was very touched.
It is very difficult for westerners to develop their artistry in the entertainment industry. Chances are slim. They can only play roles that are irrelevant and unimportant. But I never thought of giving up. Five years ago I planned to record my own album. But because of stomach acid reflux, my vocal chords got damaged. My voice became hoarse and coarse. It brought me a lot of frustrations because I have worked hard for many years. Then this happened. I then amended my singing techniques and the issue improved significantly. I was able to sing again. I am now working on re-recording my new album.
A lot of ethnic minority issues materialized around me as of late. I am currently the voice over for a RTHK program about ethnic minorities in Hong Kong. It is very hard for them to develop their career in the local entertainment industry. It is because when 90 percent of the people share the same skin color comes together in a particular place, those watching TV or film will tend to watch people of their own skin color. They may not watch ethnic minorities. If a group of ethnic minorities work together to create a program for the web, it may work out. There are a lot of ethnic minorities residing in Hong Kong. Some of their Chinese is better than mine. They also love Hong Kong very much.
‘Hong Kongers’, to me, are people who need to do things ‘Hong Kongers’ do. Eat Hong Kong food. Care about Hong Kong. And do not look at skin color. I hope they can also speak Cantonese. Most importantly, they should regard Hong Kong as their home. Then, they are ‘real Hong Kongers’.

日文歌詞 / Japanese Lyrics :
Time has come to listen to the crying of their puppet souls
君がそんなにもっと楽をして
行き詰まった未来と合図
Words are strong, heart is dropped, scatter around and falls
偽りのcontact-everything
誘い込んだ傷が混ざる
誰も忘れた悲しみが fall out
偽名はただ凍る 希望のジレンマ
息削ぎ落とす行動も抑える
そう解っている答えなど捨ててしまえ
Yeah get started breaking the row
See how it spreads out
It's beyond full realization
Yeah get started re-creating the world
Take my hands till the end
feel this raw emotion
bring it on down rock rock rock
shake it up up tap top top
cuz I know how to shout out my soul
bring it on down rock rock rock
shake it up up tap top top
cuz you know how to shout out your soul
I've got a feeling. You must let me go
I wanna keep my faith forever
Words are alive, supporting us, connecting with the souls
I'm gonna fight them all to let you go
I wanna seek my way to answer
Words are alive, supporting us, connecting with the souls
You know what? We look up to the sky, count on it.
And halos in the clouds light me up. Then I awake
In the heat, get fired up. You'll call my name
Yeah get started breaking the row
See how it spreads out.
It's beyond full realization
Yeah get started re-creating the world
Take my hands till the end
feel this raw emotion
bring it on down rock rock rock
shake it up up tap top top
cuz I know how to shout out my soul
bring it on down rock rock rock
shake it up up tap top top
cuz you know how to shout out your soul
偽名はただ凍る 希望のジレンマ
息削ぎ落とす行動も抑える
そう解っている答えなど捨ててしまえ
Yeah get started breaking the row
See how it spreads out.
It's beyond full realization
Yeah get started re-creating the world
Take my hands till the end
feel this raw emotion
bring it on down rock rock rock
shake it up up tap top top
cuz I know how to shout out my soul
bring it on down rock rock rock
shake it up up tap top top
cuz you know how to shout out your soul
Time has come to listen to the crying of their puppet souls
中文歌詞 / Chinese Lyrics :
該是時候傾聽他們傀儡般的靈魂發出的號哭──
你只想著更多那樣子的輕鬆
在未來與信號的面前無路可逃
強大的言詞令心逐漸沉淪,支離破碎墜入深淵
世間萬物皆為鏡花水月
誘引著妳陷入傷痛之中
被所有人忘卻的悲哀逐漸墜落
虛假的名字已然冰封 希望的曙光進退兩難
屏住呼吸,抑制行動
將握有的答案悉數捨棄……
以亂入衝突的方式拉開序幕吧
看清楚它如何蔓延的
這將凌駕於森羅萬象之上
開始重新創造這個世界吧
牽起我的手直到最後
感受這份赤裸的新生情感
用越來越激烈的方式擊墜一切吧
撼動世界,直到極限
因為我知道如何嘶吼出我的靈魂
用越來越激烈的方式擊墜一切吧
撼動世界,直到極限
因為妳知道如何吶喊出妳的靈魂
我蒙獲恩寵。妳得讓我走
我只渴望永遠堅持我的信念
言詞是有生命的,支持著我們,連結起眾生的魂魄
我將與千軍萬馬為敵,只為拯救妳
我只渴望找到屬於我的答案
言詞是有生命的,支持著我們,連結起眾生的魂魄
你懂什麼?我們仰望蒼穹,遙寄祈禱
而高高在上的榮光將為我指引明路。我隨之清醒
在兵荒馬亂之中,讓戰爭越演越烈。妳將呼喚我的名字──
以亂入衝突的方式拉開序幕吧
看清楚它如何蔓延的
這將凌駕於森羅萬象之上
開始重新創造這個世界吧
牽起我的手直到最後
感受這份赤裸的新生情感
用越來越激烈的方式擊墜一切吧
撼動世界,直到極限
因為我知道如何嘶吼出我的靈魂
用越來越激烈的方式擊墜一切吧
撼動世界,直到極限
因為妳知道如何吶喊出妳的靈魂
虛假的名字已然冰封 希望的曙光進退兩難
屏住呼吸,抑制行動
將握有的答案悉數捨棄……
以亂入衝突的方式拉開序幕吧
看清楚它如何蔓延的
這將凌駕於森羅萬象之上
開始重新創造這個世界吧
牽起我的手直到最後
感受這份赤裸的新生情感
用越來越激烈的方式擊墜一切吧
撼動世界,直到極限
因為我知道如何嘶吼出我的靈魂
用越來越激烈的方式擊墜一切吧
撼動世界,直到極限
因為妳知道如何吶喊出妳的靈魂
該是時候傾聽他們傀儡般的靈魂發出的號哭──
