dec. 7: Birthday...happy...thanks to all!

Sunday, 7 December 2008

I received many birthday cakes for this year and all of them tasted great. This one has the nicest physical appearance (the one in the pic), thanks to Sabatini's fat boy Ah Man. (dunno who..?)

I did not rest even though it was my birthday. I was very happy at today's show, I could see the astronauts close up and sing with them. One of them even asked Alan while on stage, saying that he would like to go see our concert next year. Alan even exchanged numbers with him on the spot. Of course, I too hope that he will come! It's an honour!

The rehearsal on 6th December... (title for the pic)

Actually, I appeared in another show before this. It was the TVB Road Safety show which will be out around mid or end December. The wind was blasting hence it was colder than the venue of the astronauts' show. I was the first one to sing, but before that, I was exposed to 25 minutes of strong wind in the stand by open area...

nov. 29: Fan Club Party on ship

Saturday, 29 November 2008

Before this, my blog had some problem, all of you were unable to leave comments but i'm so busy these days, I have no time to solve it.It's Apple MobileMe's server had changed, next time you all can visit here: http://web.me.com/leehacken/Site/Blog/Blog.html

Today's party on the ship was kinda funny, really have a seasick feel but it's fresh. Don't need everytime be at a hotel, look so lou zheng. (means dun need to be everytime just at the same place, seems like so faithful to one place only,something like that la.)
Everyone listening to new songs together, chatting, taking photos, look casual. Thank you for everyone's presents, mushrooms and fruits i can have it but those snacks i think i have to wait until after concerts, only then can eat it. The homemade photo album was great, even 'Lee's This Family' this title also can let you all thought of it,really formidable(lei hoi)!
Of course still have Ryan's toys, MU shirts, pants, socks etc and also... red packets, haha!

Next time have 'pun choi'? (dunno how to explain,a big pot inside with alot of different dishes!)
Good Idea!

Wahhh! what a busy weekend!
Of course, its the same for the fans who followed me for 2 consecutive shows last night.
The date of release for the new album? this time i want to avoid rushing all the stuff, hoping that it will be after the 2nd plug "今夕是何年" plug till "咁上下", because this time there are really too many good songs and do not want to waste such an opportunity. the actual date will be left for universal to decide.
Malaysia's "高妹" (tall girl)？ hehe...might have been very nervous during the performance that night, that's why i was talking gibberish on stage. everyone should encourage her more, and hope that she would not take it so seriously.
Have been attending meetings for "左麟右李演唱會" (left alan right hacken/neighbors (friends) concert) for the past few weeks, ticket sales will open officially in December. when the dates have been confirmed will inform u all immediately.

I'm already in Genting, did a full dress rehearsal last night, everything went on smoothly, have also seen fans from malaysia, singapore, and even HK who are here for the show. thank you everyone for the gifts, but i really can't eat too much snacks, will share them with the band members and the other helpers, hope we can all have a good show tonight!
so it seems that u guys had to wait outside last night for one hour in the strong wind, i'm sorry, i really had no idea, it was due to a routine sound check, didn't want to be interrupted, hopefully there aren't any fans who fell ill because of this!
Tonight u guys must remember to shout louder! i will do my best in singing!

....................

it has been 2 days since i came back from Genting, still miss the atmosphere that night!
the fans there that night were all very enthusiastic, it was also the first time having an encore of 13 songs! rested for 1.5 days, will start work today, morning will be having a meeting regarding "左麟右李", will be at the radio station in the afternoon, will be performing at an event "演藝人協會晚宴" with alan tonight, a really packed day!

Have been really busy for the past few weeks, went to Macau for 2 days, on the 20th of December will go back for the celebrations (the china-hk thingy), so on the 9th, was helping them in a photo-shoot to help promote the event.
Have also begun preparations for the "左麟右李" concert, working out and keeping fit, so everyone should stop sending me any kind of snacks, haha!
"When it is evening" has been decided to be the second plug, it should plug within 2 days. there are many upcoming shows and definitely many opportunities for me to sing this song.
Had a good day's rest today, will be jetting to KL tomorrow, all KL, Singapore fans, are u guys ready?

november 1~ message

I've been real busy recently, hence the lack of messages.
Gonna tie up the new album. Spent 2 weeks' time writing lyrics for the song Eason composed. Also, I need to rehearse for "Jade Singers" (the tvb celebration show). On 15th Nov, I have a concert in KL, and of course, there's more...it's 90% confirmed that there will be an "Alan & Hacken" concert. It will be around the 6th or 7th day in the Lunar New Year Calendar. We don't know how many shows we can have, it depends on the East Asian Games. What I can say now is, this time round, the stage effects and even me and alan..we will give everyone lots of "surprise"!
The photos from KL, I will upload them for everyone. Thanks to KL fans for the gifts.
As for the blog, I have no idea what's wrong and no time to fix it yet. Maybe next week!
Tonight's Jade Singers TVB Celebrations, I will appear with Alan in the last part. It can be said that this is the first time we appear on TV after we've come together again, see you tonight!

In sudden downpour "Yangjiang”
Sunday, 19 October 2008

Went to Yangjiang City for a show last night, it's a program by the Southern Television Station. it took about 4.5 hours to reach by car and another 4.5 hours to come back. it's about the same time it takes to go to japan! sang a total of 3 songs, very happy to be able to meet fans from Yangjiang City for the first time. but the time spent in the car was rather long!

Actually at last week's 世博會's (shanghai expo) press conference...



was interviewed together with Khalil Fong by Scoop, touch and Milk...



As for the new album, hope that all the recording sessions would be done by next week.

National Day celebrations@macau REPLY***

National Day celebrations@macau REPLY***
Friday, 3 October 2008

On the 1st and 2nd of october was at macau doing a show at Forum de Macau (綜藝館), was there to celebrate national day with residents in macau.
For the past few years i have been going over there for shows, of course that includes the recent concert in june, hehe, i think there will be another show in december! i love macau, it may be because when i was young, we always went over. plus, both of my parents were from macau, i always have that kind of cordial feeling.
Whenever i visit macau, i will have to do one thing, that is to takeaway 氹仔水蟹粥 (some crab porridge). i dont know why, the crab porridge here is just so delicious. the best thing that happened once was that, i tried taking away(da pau) a big pot of it and brought it back to hk. i had to eat it all that night as it would be not that nice if it was left overnight!

"JSG"? it's either the coming wednesday or the wednesday after next.
"歌星賀台慶" (the annual celebrations for singers)? hehe...i think there should be...there will also be a part...hehe! the recording progress? it's still rather slow, next will be recording Jan's song.
are there any other questions? :)

after the san seng (metro radio) concert...
Saturday, 27 September 2008

the sanseng (metro radio) show, actually it was pretty fun, was able to sing various songs of other singers, besides that i have to thank all the guests who have helped out, thank you very much!
those who went to watch, what do you think of it?

after the show will now be focusing on recording for the new album, just managed to finish recording fan shao xuan's song within the past 2 days, 曉萱寫's (no idea whats his eng name but he always writes for hacken) lyrics for one of the songs was pretty exciting :

"廉價哀傷"

唯有不去問 沒答案不用尋

誰也不要緊 如他可以令你不惜變心

唯有不去恨 誰都不值得我憎他半生

微笑關上燈 黑暗裡 難望真存在這軀殼曾被吻

失戀不是中鎗 還能維持健康未斷腸

我 還是我 無論眼還是心如就此毀了誰付賬

基督都受過傷 凡人難受亦有歌可唱

oh….高唱 這廉價 哀傷

甜美不靠運 未痛過不是人

如你傷我心 能找到更愉快的不要緊

不見得要等 不覺得需要來誇張被拋棄的幽怨感

不見得可以為悲哀哭得上癮

無甚麼能值得手腳還在震

lastly...actually i think the song by me and 張繼聰 was pretty good too...haha!

MV x 2

MV x 2
Thursday, 11 September 2008

Within 3 days, we filmed 2 MVs for "她慈我悲" ("She is kind, but i am sad"), on monday was at a pretty quiet Club (not many ppl patronise) in tsim sha tsui to film the TVB version, it was filmed indoors, and was very relevant (i think he refers to the place) , the lead actress goes back to africa...forced to break up...but reluctant...it only took around 5hrs , was pretty relaxing.

On wednesday filmed the universal version, however it "wasnt as relaxing/easy", early in the morning went to fanling (somewhere in the new territories) where there was a farm, to film the outdoors scene. as the whether was pretty good, so...suntanned till so black (dark)! this time the director is my good friend ~ Benny lau wai hung, its my first time working with him for an MV...it was pretty enjoyable, actually i'm not too sure what he was filming, but it doesn't really matter, whatever it is, i just have to cooperate and do what the director says. i have faith in him, it will most likely be a good one...! haha ! it will be shown in about 2 days time, really looking forward to it!

Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, wish everyone a happy mid-autumn festival!
received lots of presents these few days, there were all sorts of mooncakes, snacks, tea leaves, lanterns and many many more. they were from fans from singapore, malaysia, mainland and hk, thank you very much!
the progress of the recording has been pretty slow, only finished 4.5 songs. today finished recording hins', it could have been better, so will be re-singing it again next week. however those that were already done - justin, khalil, louis, were all extremely well done!

(tricia: oops lol ok hk ppl like to type xing- star for the first letter to mention singapore! why? LOL. its san-ka-pore not seng-ka-pore!)

................................

sept. 16:

actually i didn't know that i would be on the barry show (radio program) at 1600, before that at 1400 still had to do a Mini live and also record Donald's show. i will try to bring along khalil's and louis' songs to see if they would be able to broadcast it.

sept. 25:

i wasn't sick at all, its just that i didn't have enough sleep. helping to look after Ryan + the typhoon blowing towards my house, for the past week, i didn't manage to sleep for a consecutive 5 hours each day. that's why while singing last night my voice sounded a little coarse halfway through the concert. but after a day's rest it would be back to normal again, u guys do not need to worry too much. how did u all feel about the show? i felt that my part was OK la! of course it would have been better if my voice didn't sound so coarse, but using that kind of rough voice to sing "你在何地" gave the song a bit more feel! actually wanted to sing more side tracks, but if i were to do that the organizers would lodge a complaint against me!

aug. 24: No.9 system warning

no.9 system warning (typhoon)
sunday, august 24 2008

actually i was quite surprised, it was said that the typhoon would strike sai-kung district, fortunately there was not much damage, the wind wasn't that strong, so even if i had to go and record "TVB大班月餅show" it was really not that dangerous. (the show would most probably be aired on 4th of september)
It is finally the last day of the olympics, the chinese team in this olympics is really "great/ very good", even though there were a few events in which the gold medal was accidentally lost, for example yesterday nights- men's 10m diving, liu xiang's withdrawal from the hurdles, etc., but they still managed a total of 40 to 50 gold medals. america usually insists on use of "total number of medals" to determine the winner, and they "claim" that they are the best, it's really quite funny though!
In the afternoon will be at TVB studio to do the basketball match, later on will do the closing ceremony, see u later!

recently have been recording songs for the new album, now still thinking about whether to work on the 24th for the basketball match and the closing ceremony.

--------

8.31.2008:

erikpych : under normal circumstances, it shouldn't be like that, and i have never heard of such problem happening before. where did u buy it? however u can bring along the DVD to universal- kwantang office, i believe they would be able to help u out.

it was rather a pity that i wasn't able to work with the athletes at last night's event, i was hoping to be able to take a photo with- xi dong mei, perhaps next time! i believe there will always be another chance! also, there were reports saying that i was lip-syncing last night, hehe, thank you very much, i was actually singing live!

(tricia: he was replying to a person who posted before him about the DVD he bought. the recent hk concert one... he said that the quality of the DVD was not up to standard and commented that he felt cheated, paying for the price of a DVD but the quality was of a VCD. LOL. ok mine was clear though. then i think he thinks maybe it was pirated or something?? cos he say he supports anti-piracy too. LOL.)

9.1.2008:
recently have been organising the rundown for Sanseng (metro?) concert on 24th sept, does anyone have any suggestions? don't feel like singing those songs that i always sing, also have to avoid singing those that are not too popular. in all, i still have to notify Sanseng as well as the sponsor...there will definitely be a few lines of the new song, now i'm thinking of singing "other people's songs", in addition there will be a few duets, as there will be other singers present too.

9.5.2008:
tomorrow night's Gong Yi Jin Hui (community chest 40th anniversary) will be on the second part and the last 2 parts, before 6pm will be at Shatin Central Park for the TVB paralympics show, it will be shown after the Gong Yi Jin Hui, 2 shows in 1 night, very fulfilling!

august 13: the Chinese can do it

Wednesday, 13 August 2008

i arrived in beijing in the afternoon on 7th august. although i have been to beijing so many times, however it feels different this time. the whole city is in an "olympic" mood, posters and banners with olympic slogans can be found everywhere, all the workers /helpers /volunteers were polite, wearing a smile on their face always, enthusiastic in helping us in every aspect (or when there are problems) and they can even speak english fluently! in addition the number of cars on the roads have been minimized, the air quality is also better now...a little bit (haha!) , the breath-taking Bird's Nest and Water Cube, even at the place where we work, IBC, the canteen food is pretty good too, traffic, even the accomodation is superb. the only thing is that the internet access at the media village is pretty inconvenient and the rates are really expensive, that's why i can only update my blog when i return to HK!
On the 8th was present to watch the opening ceremony, felt extremely excited! china has finally done it! no matter where u are watching it live or on tv, u should feel satisfied, after the show that night, i asked a lot of foreigners who were staying in the media village like me, a vast majority used the same english phrase to describe~AMAZING!
Being a chinese person (part of china), at that moment, i felt really proud! of course, i took lots of pictures, will gradually upload them here as well as hackenleenet.com to share with everyone.

[tricia~ haha ok the way he describe the water cube was funny. he used an er chinese idiom to say that it was so beautiful that he couldn't breathe! LOL. check out the pics though!]

july 23: new album...started recording...one song :)

Wednesday, 23 July 2008

[he posts the lyrics 4 a new song]:

她慈我悲

曲：Vincent Chow 詞：林夕

a1 風 總會吹 天空只有準許

我 憑何 重返到 過去

道別也非罪 而她 反應嘉許

為她不忍見貧民 流眼淚

a2 手 該挽手 偏不該到非州

看 原來人也可以 這麼瘦

wo... 為著這感受 令她 再沒回頭

善心得使我難受仍接受

b1 她 實太好 曾成為一對我也理應自豪

遺憾在 無能力控訴

她所愛大得我望不到

她 別太好

仍隨時關注我再匯報如何和孩童共舞

可興奮過當初枕邊細訴

為人偉大到不可 再擁抱

a3 手 總要分 肯把小我犧牲

也 毌忘臨行給我 再一吻

wo… 並未有不忿 慈悲 快樂助人

但悲傷的我留待 誰慰問

b3 她 絕對好 能成全她志向也覺得自豪

虔誠在 從來未計數

好心卻未想過為好報

誰 會估到

情人曾深愛我最後愛和孩童和諧共舞 好

比起與我於家中起舞

誰能判斷哪種愛 更高

留我夢裡風沙 自掃

the first song recorded for the new album is "(literally: She Sadly Loves Me)", it's partially a k song, it's rather difficult to sing, that's why had to sing it for a couple of days. again, forgot to upload the photos that i took..., pretty soon there will be more new jobs, will update more frequently, haha!

july 1: Will be a host at the Olympics again!

Tuesday, 1 July 2008

the above pictures are from last sunday's TVB press conference. time really flies. the olympics is just a few months away, being chinese, being able to be one of the hosts at the coming olympics, i'm extremely honoured, especially on 8th august, i will be reporting live at the opening ceremony of the olympics, WOW!!!

talking about the opening ceremony, actually i have reported live before at the 96 games in atlanta, but i believe that the feeling will be different this time, it will be even even even more exciting, its our own territory! really looking forward to it!

this time i will be staying in beijing for 4 to 5 days, its not what the newspapers has reported, 3 wks, i will be mainly reporting the news for the first few days, after that will be back in hong kong to continue with the recording for the new album. as for whether i will return to beijing again, or will just remain in hong kong to report (about the beijing olympics) , it all depends on how fast the recording goes.

china team add oil!
hong kong team add oil!

and of course...to our TVB production team add oil too!

The Adidas T-shirt for the fan club is in the making, please be patient!

Hope that the Malaysia concert will be in mid-november. It should be in Genting, not much of a choice as we've already contacted other places in Kuala Lumpur which told us they're unavailable of any venues for the coming 8 months! :(

The new album?
Not yet. Will be recording the first song next week. Should be either Vincent Chow's or Justin's.

june 23 : Qunhao clothesline

Monday, 23 June 2008

i have been working with "Qunhao clothes-ware" for a few years, i'm very happy to be able to be the spokesperson. actually in the recent years i have been helping them in some photoshoots, and also a TVC advertisement. i believe a lot of fans in the mainland have already seen it before. last wednesday we went to Da Ya Wan for the winter-ware photoshoot, later on u guys will be able to see these photos at :
http://www.cbiq.com/vip/sys_temp/fashion/index.asp?memberid=a3706

last week was really enriching for me, besides the photoshoot for "Qunhao", also filmed the TVB promo for the olympics, watched Kelly's concert, and also sang "ai yi ge ren" (at kelly's concert) without rehearsing, of course...i m extremely happy for her la !
On top of that, i have also asked a techinician from APPLE regarding mainland fans having trouble accessing this website, they told me that indeed it will be a little bit slower. this is because to reach mainland it has to first pass through hongkong then taiwan and finally will it be able to reach apple..., all fans in mainland....u guys can only....be more patient !
So...really thx 4 coming !

where did i go today?
how did i celebrate today?
actually, there was nothing special, i think it's about the same as yours. went to eat buffet in the afternoon, haha, sometimes i like the feeling of having a buffet, where there are tons of different delicious food placed in front of you. after eating, was at home the whole time with my parents.

the feeling of being a father and celebrating father's day for the first time is just normal (okay...nothing special he thinks.. LOL), i'm waiting for Ryan to become older, when he starts talking and could call me (daddy...) or maybe even draw a picture for me! i believe it would be a better father's day then, perhaps, next yr!
wish all fathers happy Father's Day!

blog post: June 7th Macau Concert Hall

June 7th Macau Concert Hall
Wednesday, 4 June 2008

For the past week i was in macau, busy preparing for the concert, band rehersal, practicing the dance steps, meetings and many more. it seems like the beginning of this year all over again (when he had to prepare for his concert in hk ). the concert in macau this time should be pretty fun, a large portion of the band members will be present, it's really original (as in similar to the HK one). hope that the fans in macau, mainland china, and of course those from hong kong who specifically came over to watch, will be happy and excited.
actually i have already done a p/c at the venetian resort , the organisation even gave me a Scholes jersey, but i have yet to send it back to hongkong.

see u at the Macau concert!

I am home already.
The concert was going smooth last night, saw so many fans, no matter if you are from Macau, the Mainland or Hong Kong, all of you were coming to my show even in the heavy rain, thanks so much. Because of terrible traffic jam and security check, all of the audience had to come to the show late and we had to start the show at 8.40pm, finally ending at 11.30pm (the organiser actually wanted us to end the show by 11.00pm), of course wanted everybody to enjoy it till the end!

Today was really busy. Early in the morning at 10am, I had to record a promotion for the legislative council for September 7. In the afternoon, I made time to attend the fundraising event, after that I had to go for band rehearsal to rehearse with over 40 musicans for June 7's Macau concert (for a few days running, i've had to dance and rehearse). Hence, I could not stay till the end.

Originally, when the DJs sang "Red Day" in the afternoon, I was on standby to appear after they sang half of the song. However, the wrong mmo was played..and the song was cut off...never mind, it's the thought that counts.

(hianez: MMO yep..is the music without the singer's voice singing, i think that why they call it music MINUS ONE, lol.)

(blog title explanation by Tricia:
its like an idiom u know...that's 8 words...
it's like- if we are wealthy, we can help by donating...otherwise we can help through many other different ways?)
18 May 2008

These few days i believe that many hong kong artistes are occupied with many different fundraising events, so am i, what ever it is if we have money we can donate generously otherwise we can try to help in many other different ways, i know that many fan club members have made donations, thank you everyone for responding to the fan club's action- to raise funds. On saturday night's TVB donation drive, actually i was already scheduled to appear at around 11pm, because i had to do a show in shenzhen, also as TVB was afraid that i would not be able to rush back in time, they did not arrange for me to sing any song, in the end when it was just before the news broadcast, i briefly sang a few sentences of "hong yat" (red sun), however probably because they had not much time to inform eric, that's why people thought that i would be appearing after the news!
