In 2005, Hacken was named the Ambassador for the Manchester United official Chinese websites.

But for some reason, I can't access the Chinese website right now! maybe they're fixing something...anyway, the official website is at: http://www.manutd.com/

the link to Hacken's section, his forum is supposed to be here. he only posted one message there, since i last checked....a long time ago....

Hacken also sang a song for the Chinese Manchester United fan club, but for some reason, the song has not been released. it was supposed to play at the Chinese website and be promoted a lot, but I don't know what happened...here's more info about this, posted by Rou at the Hackenation forum:

HACKEN GETS TO SING MAN U ASIAN SONG

OVERVIEW OF NEWS REGARDING ASIAN FANCLUB SONG

hacken gets to sing the man u asian fan club song after all. initially, he was ecstatic when he was invited to sing the asian fan club song and negotiations were slow but steady until it suddenly came to nought. hacken thought all was lost when man u got took over (discussions stopped abruptly) and atv won the broadcasting rights to the Man U match in hk(he had to reject participation in all activities cos he is a contracted TVB singer and appearing on ATV will put him in an awkward position).

however, man u did not give up on him.

instead, they looked for him through other means and invited him to be the ambassador of their china/hk official website. at the same time, they also invited him to their activities in HK when they come and he will get the opportunity of a lifetime to come into close contact with his idols. They have also decided to release the fan club song after all. they did not want to make things difficult for him and hence, he does not need to sing the song when they arrive. instead, the song will be placed on the website. although the ambassador job was voluntary on hacken's part (=no $$$), he noted that man u will pump in a 7 figure amt (hk$) into the promotion of the song. the website will also provide a platform for him to share his thoughts on man u with other fans as well as provide his latest updates.
