- 19/8/99 Leon Live '99 Press Conference:
- Leon arrived in Hong Kong Convention Centre at 2.35pm. When the van halted at the entrance of the carpark, Leon waved to the 50 or so fans there from inside, before the van drove into the centre.
- When the press conference ended, around five "men in black" (Security guards), came out to get ready for Leon's departure. At around 4.55pm, Leon left the convention hall in his van. When he saw that fans were waiting for him, he leaned forward and used his right hand to switched on the lights inside the van (so that the fans can see him better!). Fans from outside saw his smile and his constant "waving" to them. Leon was wearing a dark suit with a grey shirt. Briefly greeting the fans from inside his van, the van then sped off.

1999年8月13-15日 湖南衛視「快樂大本營」及回港
- Leon飛到湖南長沙後,入住長沙最新的、有份贊助這個節目的「神龍」酒店。
- 「快樂大本營」由7:53pm再始播映,場內觀眾總數大概有二百五十多,一方坐著百多個樂百氏員工,除了總經理外,都穿上印有Leon圖樣的白色T-shirt,一方坐著酒店員工數十人,面對台前的是五十個男男女女的歌迷,都坐在地上,其中有四個穿了香港黎明家族的服飾,高舉「我為你而來、武漢黎明家族」的牌子,原來正是長途跋涉由武漢而來的歌迷。節目前半段是國內六個歌星明星在玩遊戲,六個人中五個和兩位司儀都配合大會「純淨」主題穿上白色衣服,Leon那部份大概由9:05pm至節目完結的9:45pm.....(對比在香港的數分數秒好得多了!)
- 以下是14/8當晚文字和聲音內容,為免混亂,請各位順序先看文字再收聽 :
- Leon由司儀李湘和何炅隆重地介紹出場,場內更爆下紛飛紙絮,襯托著Leon由後台走出來,Leon穿著墨藍色短袖襯衫,白褲,戴有銀色頸鍊,手上仍有那「豬仔金釦」皮鍊。
- 兩位司儀和Leon說了幾句開場白就請Leon坐下做訪問,訪問內容
- 接著司儀請Leon看看用來形容他的電影片段,分別是 :
- 痴情不改的黎明:[玻璃之城]片段
- 深情款款的黎明:[半生緣]片段
- 酷勁十足的黎明:[少年賭神]片段
- 容易受傷的黎明:[新戀愛世紀]片段
- 純樸憨厚的黎明:[甜蜜蜜]片段
- 超乎尋常的黎明:[樂百氏純淨水廣告]片段
- 看過片段後,司儀叫現場觀眾玩了一個遊戲,要模倣Leon在樂百氏廣告中斜身喝水的姿勢,那當然不能成功,司儀也叫Leon作示範,Leon斜身定力比一般人持久,不過當然仍不能這樣喝水啦!Leon說拍攝時是有人在後面拉著,他身上是有 "Wire" 的。後來司儀請出一位嘉賓可以做得到,不過明顯的這位嘉賓的鞋子是有磁石才能做成功。
- 此刻主持人又提到Leon前幾天到過中山和樂百氏員工聚會,片段中看到Leon拿著一幅字畫「君子之交純如水」,也開了一個記者會。在那裡司儀李湘訪問了Leon,不過節目卻將Leon的答案「整理」過,由旁白說出不一樣的問題來和Leon開個玩笑,這一節名叫「錯位問答」~~~收聽
- Leon在聽到自己好笑的答案時,也忍不住一面喝水一面笑。片段中的Leon手勢很多,更常常把玩咪高峰。
- 片段完結後,不少歌迷走到鏡頭前送禮物,更有人乘機和Leon拍合照啊!
- 接著是歌迷提問,共有三個歌迷成功提問,其中一個男生很特別,身上的T-shirt和牛仔褲都寫上「Leon」字樣,T-shirt前幅有「如果可以再見你」、後幅有「我這樣愛你」的字樣!Leon回答問題時,態度誠懇確切,和提問者及觀眾有眼神交流,非常認真的。
- 歌迷提問內容
- 接下來是五個男歌迷的歌唱比賽,分別唱出[Happy 2000]、[心在跳]、[愛你不愛你](廣東話)、 [等到天昏地暗]和[透明],五位參賽者唱歌時,Leon是坐在鏡頭以外的觀眾席前,很多歌迷不顧一切,不斷的跑出去爭取時間向Leon送上禮物。最後由司儀要求Leon選出一位勝出者,四位參賽者可以得到樂百氏T-shirt一件,優勝者除了tee,多贈一張Leon Now CD。Leon三番四次的表示各有特色,因此雖然他選了唱[透明]那一位得勝,卻也連隨說會私下補贈CD給其他四位 ~~~ 皆大歡喜囉!
- Leon這次純以廣告大使身份出席,沒有唱歌,兩位司儀這時就要求Leon清唱幾句[透明],可是Leon回應說剛才那個參賽的跳錯了舞步,即場來個親自示範,使得觀眾熱情大叫。
- 最後,全場觀眾把手上印有Leon圖樣的樂百氏打開,看誰有8888字樣的就中獎,結果由一個少女得到金牌,Leon拿著金牌盒子時,笑說要先看看,打開盒子和何炅偷偷地看,一個愛不釋手的樣子,好可愛啊!
- 頒過獎後,李湘問得獎者想不想擁抱Leon,少女正笑得合不攏嘴時,Leon就向她來個大熊抱.......(嘩!嘩!嘩!)。Leon再向觀眾說幾句話,希望將來在不同地區可以見面,然後整個節目完結。
- 15/8回港 :
- Leon的航班一再延誤,由本來5:05pm延至5:40pm才著陸。Leon在6:00pm由六個護衛及阿佳的圍繞下由禁區慢步出來,他身穿藍色風衣,內配紫色窄身Tee(.....網主記得這件是短袖的),牛仔褲、黑鞋、戴著綠框藍鏡太陽眼鏡。
- 今天機場的人群特別多,接機的歌迷也很多,Leon由禁區邊的鐵欄缺口「閃」出來,歌迷一湧而上,Leon在此期間接了部份歌迷的信件禮物。上了自動電梯,向下揮手招呼,也望望一同站在電梯上的歌迷。到了上層,有個男歌迷送上他自己的成績表,Leon很高興的伸手接了,並且立刻一面走一面看,然後又有個女歌迷送上西瓜狀心意咭,Leon看看歌迷又看看那可愛的咭,又伸手接了。
- 大伙兒擁著Leon上斜路到候車處,Leon快要登上Sony那輛保母車前,歌迷bye-bye之聲此起彼落,Leon本來逐一回應,後來沒好氣的大聲「BYE-BYE啦!」扁一扁咀上車了。在車上又回復情緒,向車前歌迷揮手打招呼後離去。

- 15/8/99 - 13/8/99 Leon In Chang Sha "Happy Camp"
- During Leon's stay in Hunan's Chang Sha, he stayed in the "Dragon Hotel, a new hotel which is also one of the sponsors of the TV show "Happy Camp".
- "Happy Camp" began airing at 7.53pm, with an audience of 250. In one side, there are around 100 Robust staff, apart from the General Manager, all were wearing a white tee shirt with a Leon photo printed on it. On the other side, there sat 50 hotel staff, and right in front of the stage, there were 50 fans, all sitting on the floor. There were 4 fans there that wore the Leon Family Hong Kong uniform with a banner reading "I came for you, MonHon Leon Family". These fans came all the way from MonHon! The first part of the show featured six artists from China and they mainly played games. Of the six, five co-ordinated with the theme of the show tonight "Pure", by wearing white. Leon part began to aired at 9.05pm, and he stayed until the show ended at 9.45pm (compare with Hong Kong’s couple of minutes, this is really a treat!"
- The following is 14/8/99 Show’s written edition and sound file extract. To avoid confusion, Please read the extract first and then listen to the sound file.
- The commentators Li and Ho formerly introduced Leon. The stage exploded with pink confetti and Leon came on stage. Leon was wearing a navy short sleeve shirt, white trousers, his "usual" silver necklace and ht still was wearing the " little piglet" bracelet.
- Leon and the two commentators briefly greeted each other and they then sat down to do the interview INTERVIEW CONTENT.
- Leon and the two commentators asked Leon to have a look at a couple of his film extracts that was prepared in advance. It consist of :
- "City of Glass" – The Undying Love of Leon
- "Eighteen Springs"- The Romanticism of Leon
- "God of Gamblers- His youth"- The Cunning style of Leon
- "New Love Generations"- The Delicate soul of Leon
- "Robust Spring Water Commercial"- The Extraordinary of Leon
- After they watched the film extracts, the commentators played a game with the audience, in that they had to inmitate Leon in the Robust commercial (Drinking the water at a 45 degrees angle). Although all the contestants failed, the commentator asked Leon to "demonstrate". Leon maintained at that angle (longer than most people) but still was unable to drink water!!! Leon explained that while filming, there was a wire around his waist with a couple of people holding him for support. The commentator then brought on a guest who could perform this "miracle" but it was very evident that he had magnets on his sole to maintain his balance.
- The commentator then mentioned Leon’s trip to the Robust factory a couple of days ago. In this clip, Leon was holding a scroll with "Friendship as Pure as Water" written on it. There was also a press conference. Li then interviewed Leon but they deliberately did a jumble so that while Leon answered some questions, they edited it with different questions to his original answers. The outcome was extremely humorous and entertaining.
- When Leon was watching the "edited" version, he couldn’t resist but laugh and smile constantly. Leon’s hand gesture waved madly and his hand movement was non-stop and "playing" with the microphone.
- When finished, a lot of fans wasted no time by handing him gifts and letters and also taking photos with Leon. Then followed some questions from some fans. Three fans were successful and one of the male fan’s clothes had Leon sewed on to it! The front of the tee shirt has a slogan "If I can see u again" and the back had "I love you this much". Leon was very modest and polite while answering questions from the fans.
- Then followed a singing competition from the fans. The contestants sang "Happy 2000", "Heart Beat", "Love you/ Not Love You" (Cantonese version) and "Transparent". When they were, Leon was sitting outside the camera, but fans still wasted no opportunity by talking to Leon, and handing gifts and letters to Leon. Leon judged the contest and he gave winner to the contestant who sang "Transparent". All contestants got a Robust Tee shirt, and the winner also got a Leon Now CD. Leon constantly expressed that the contestants were all of high standard and in the end, he gave CDs to all the contestants!
- Because Leon acted the role of "Robust Spokesperson" so he didn’t sing any songs but when the commentators asked Leon to sing a couple of lines of "Transparent" . But Leon said that he preferred the dance a couple of "dance steps" because the contestants previously danced wrong! This made the audience wild!!
- In finale, the audience screwed opened the "Robust Spring Water" (with Leon photo) and see whoever was the lucky winner with 8888 on the cap. The lucky winner was a girl who will received a "gold medal" . When Leon was presenting the gift, he said that he wanted to have a "peep" first ! He seemed to like the gift a lot and had a such a cute expression!
- The commentator asked the winner that did she want a hug from Leon and the girl was very shy. Before she could decide, Leon had embraced her in his arms! (WOW WOW WOW ) Leon then said goodbye and he said that one day he wishes to visit different parts of China. The show then ended.
- 15/8/99 Leon returns to HK
- Leon’s plane was delayed from 5.05pm to 5.40pm and Leon duly stepped out at 6.00pm, under the "guide" of six security men and Ah Guy. He was wearing a blue anorak, with a purple tee (the webmaster remembers it is short sleeve), jeans and a green edge blue lens sunglasses. There was a large crowd in the airport today and Leon "escaped" onto the arrival hall in between the gaps in the railing. The fans all rushed towards him. He received gifts and letters from the fans. When he was on the escalator, he waved to fans. One of the male fan gave Leon his exam results and Leon willingly took it and was reading as he walked. Another female fan gave Leon a cute "Watermelon" greeting card. Although Leon didn’t want to take it at first, but being such a cute card, he couldn’t resist.
- The fans escorted Leon to the car-landing area and Leon was waiting for the van provided by Sony. Fans said Good bye to Leon very loud. Leon wanted to say goodbye at the beginning but then he just grunted "Bye Bye la" and got on the van. But he soon bounced back and was waving to the fans from inside before the van sped of.

1999年8月13日 「樂百氏形象大使」到湖南
- 今天Leon以「樂百事形象大使」的身份飛去湖南長沙市出席宣傳活動,當中會包括8月14日晚上由湖南電視台直播的「快樂大本營」。Leon乘坐的港龍航班訂於5:15pm起飛,保母車在4:20pm就來了,先讓子泉下車和六個「黑衣人」(護衛) 匯合,再去辦理登機手續。及後陳善之和天恩也雙雙來到,先行入閘去。
- 當一切準備妥當後,子泉和黑衣人回到下車處等候,這時專程來機場送機的五十多位歌迷也都開始各就各位了。保母車在4:40pm回來,先由各人將車上行李拿下,最後,Leon下車了。他身穿灰色Tee,外加一件米色風衣、配牛仔褲、黑皮鞋,戴上墨鏡。一下車,雙手伸起將風衣拉一拉,短短的Tee卻不慎路出他的腰,這情景讓站在小馬路對面的歌迷看到,不禁有些驚嘆。當Leon站在路邊望向歌迷時,大家不敢呼叫,只是向他揮手示意,Leon也向大家也明顯的回贈一笑,今天的心情特別好!
- 過了馬路,歌迷向Leon道別,六個黑衣人手拉手將Leon圍住,舒適地向前慢慢走。老婆婆卒先送上一個紅封包,祝他一路順風,其他的就紛紛送上信件禮物。
- 沿路上Leon和歌迷也有說有笑的,有個歌迷向Leon說 : 「今日係黑色星期五呀,Leon小心D!」,Leon沒有望向她說 : 「你唔提就冇事啦!」(有點不悅),歌迷們就紛紛說 :「係呀!冇事o既!」。
- 由於剛剛考試放榜,很多歌迷都向Leon說說自己的成績,有一個很輕聲的向Leon說自己考進了大學,可是Leon聽錯了,以為是考不上,就對她說 : 「唔緊要啦!」,歌迷 : 「唔係呀!我考到呀!」,Leon : 「o下!咁又唔係唔緊要喇 ~~ (講咩好呢?),呀!恭喜你啦!」
- 有一個說 : 「Leon,我講件得意事俾你知丫!」Leon說 : 「好呀!」,側頭注視著,好像等她開始,怎知她將一封信交到Leon手中說 : 「我寫左俾你,你上機睇啦!」,Leon有些失望地說 : 「哦!」。
- 如此這般談談說說就走到禁區了,Leon在黑衣人、子泉、阿佳的陪同下進了禁區......(加上Joe和天恩,好強大的陣容啊!)。排隊過海關時 Leon S 形地站著,近年很少見到。
- (網主 : 有兩件事要說說 ~~~ 一、 陳善之已親口說國語大碟不會在八月底面世,要稍稍延遲。二、Leon這次到湖南電視台做直播,電視台在8月2日向外公開派50張票,有很多歌迷去拿票,有些甚至遠至瀋陽、武漢的也坐長途火車去拿票,卻原來要經過筆試、再面試考Leon的資料,成功才能拿到,真的得來不易啊!.....還好網主沒有時間去,否則筆試一項,寫不出簡體字,第一個「肥佬」了。希望拿到票的歌迷可以好好的享受那歡樂的一夜吧! 幸好網主仍有機會看直播,成功的話會作出報導。)

13/8/99 Robust Image Rep in Hunan
- Today, Leon represented "Robust Spring Water" to Hunan Changsha to participate in a promotional gala. It includes a live TV appearance on Woo Nam television's show "Happy Camp". Leon will take the Dragon airline which was due to depart at 5.15pm. Leon's van arrived at 4.20pm. Firstly, Chi Chuen and Leon's six security guard checked in on behalf of Leon, and soon, Joe Chan and Tin Yan arrived. They went straight into departure area.
- When everything is sorted, Chi Chuen and Co. went back out to the airport landing area waiting for Leon, and the 50 or so fans there also tool their place. Leon's van arrived back at 4.40pm, and they all began to unload the lugguage. Finally, Leon descended from the van. He was wearing a grey tee shirt, a beige jacket, blue jeans, black shoes and sunglasses. When he got of the van, he stretched his arm and pulled his jacket, this action caused him to revealed some "flesh" at the waist! When the fans on the other side of the road saw this, they were a bit shocked! When Leon looked at the fans, the fans didnt dare to make too much noise, only waving to him. Leon returned with a smile! His mood today is quite good!
- When Leon crossed the road, he said goodbye to some of the fans. His security guard preformed a "ring" around Leon so that he is "safe" and can walk causally towards the departure area. An old lady handed Leon a "red pocket" and wished him well in his journey ahead. Other fans gave him some small gifts and letters.
- On the way, Leon was talking to the fans and a fan asked him "Today is Black Friday, Please be careful". Leon replied (with out looking) "It'll be ok if you didnt mention it!" (a bit annoyed) Other fans began to say "yeah.. it will be OK!"
- Since the HKCEE results were just out, a lot of fans showed Leon their results. One fan said that she was accepted into university but Leon heard otherwise and thought that she didnt, said to her "Dont worry!, It'll be fine". The fan said "No.. I was accepted!" Leon then said "Oh..Then it is really going to be fine!, (what should i say?) Congratulations!"
- Another said to Leon, " Leon, I have something to tell you", Leon said "OK!" and turned his attention towards her. However, she handed him a letter and said " Read it on the plane!". Leon replied (a bit disappointed)"OH!"
- Soon, they were to arrived in to the custom area, and Leon, under the company of his security guards, Chi Chuen, Ah Guy went into the customs. (Together with Joe and Tin Yan, A big crowd!). When Leon was queuing in the customs, Leon was standing in a "S" shape.. havent seen him like this in the recent years!)
- (webmaster: Two things we need to clarify: 1. Joe Chan has personally told us that Leon's latest mandarin album will not be released at the end of August, it will be delayed. 2.Leon's live TV appearance on Hunan Television, there were around 50 tickerts available to the public. A lot of fans from all over China applied. The tickets were given on the basis of a written and oral exam about Leon's infro. Only those that pass may issue tickets; really not easy to achieve! It is just good that webmaster didnt have time to go, or else in the exam, being unable to write simplified chinese, definitely will FAIL! Here wish that those fans that got tickets, will have a great time. Lucky the webmaster can watch it lived on TV and will give detailed report where available.

1999年8月10日 「樂百氏」(及「無限美」?)中山宣傳活動
- 今天Leon為了「樂百氏」,奔波一天來回廣州中山。Leon在大清早七時多到尖沙咀中港碼頭乘船到中山,出席廣告商安排的活動,據知當中包括一個記者招待會...(原來是記者會再加上Leon和中山樂百氏員工的聚會)。下午Leon又匆匆乘船回香港,約傍晚7:45pm抵港,身穿米色風衣外套、藍色牛仔褲,架著墨鏡,心情蠻好的,由子泉陪同下乘保母車離去,繼續他在香港的工作。
- 網主 :
- 今天很多日本歌迷又有傳言說Leon在昨日或今日 (9/8或10/8) 到了日本,網主可以肯定這是錯誤的傳言,各位日本歌友不用奔波東京機場了。
- 此外,網主向來絕無談論Leon的任何緋聞,因為這是他的私事,並不符合本網報導原則;不過最近「忽然一週」的無聊報導妥實太過份了,惡意選擇在Leon做慈善活動時才發放那些「永遠拍不到現場合照、Leon有隱身大法」的緋聞「報導」,做成錯覺以為Leon終日嬉戲、無所是事。
- 網主可以明証,Leon絕大部份時間都在做一切有關他娛樂事業上的工作,在拍了Citibank廣告回來後,不是做幕後剪片、製作,就是錄音做音樂或一些拍攝工作,甚至是開會看劇本等等。就以7/8義賣糖果那天為例,早上開始至4:30pm離開時代廣場,相隔數小時就錄音直至深夜,沒隔幾小時 (8/8清晨) 又去進行拍攝工作,完成後又錄音至深夜。不要忘了每節之間那數小時,已包括交通、整裝、吃喝、洗澡和睡眠時間了!
- 相信大家也明白,Leon只是不喜歡將他那忙碌辛勤的工作掛在口邊,並不表示他整天愛玩,無心工作啊!大家用心看看他的進步,就不用我再多說了。

- 10/8/99 Leon in Guangdong for Robust (& Rseame?) Promotion
- In order to attend a promotion special for "Robust", Leon had to travel to and from Guangdong today. At around 7.00am this morning, Leon arrived in TST harbour to travel to Guangdong by boat. He will attend the press conference held by Rseame and also some promotional activities.
- In the same evening,at approx 7.45pm, Leon was back to in Hong Kong. He was wearing a beige jacket, blue jeans and wearing glasses. He was in an extremely good mood, and under the company of Chi Chuen, Leon once again rushed back to complete his endless work.
- Webmaster:
- Today, there was a lot of rumours that Leon was or is going to travel to Japan, the webmaster here can assure Japanese fans that Leon will not be going to Japan in these days. Japanese fans: No need to go to the airport!
- Another matter : In the normal circumstances, it is not a role of Leon NewStation to discuss the "love-affairs" of Leon, because this is his personal business. But in the recent issue of "Sudden Weekly", there is something we have to say. First of all, these "reports" are totally nonsense. They chose to report these "flase Allegations" and "Leon-less" photos in the time when Leon was particpating in Charity events (UNICEF Selling Sweets). It creates an false image that Leon only does meaningless things. Where, infact, Leon has been very busy into his own work. (webmaster can prove this). Apart from shooting his latest Citibank commerical, and involving in editing and directing. Leon is also very busy into his own music development. At the moment, he is also in discussion of his upcoming latest film. Just like on the day, Leon particpates in the UNICEF selling sweets, after the last location (Time Squares, Causeway Bay), he then went into recording until late into the night. Then, after a couple of hours later, 8/8/99, he then, had to continued his filming. After filming, he had to do more recording.. Please don't forget that in the interval in between, he had to do the normal eating, sleeping etc etc.
- I am sure that we all can understand that Leon doesn't like to talk about his "work" constantly, but it doesnt mean that all Leon does is play all day. We dont need to say anymore, I am sure we can all see his improvement day by day.

1999年8月7日 愛心糖果義賣行動
- 今天Leon為了UNICEF這個籌款活動,可以用「奔波勞碌」來形容,在五個小時中跑了五個地方做義賣。
- 第一站 ~~ 將軍澳尚德村商場 :
- 這個商場並不大,由於地處偏僻,相信平日不會有很多「村外人」到訪,不過今天可不同了,很多歌迷在清晨時分已經來到OK便利店前排隊,希望能夠第一時間在Leon手中買到「愛心糖果」。約十時多,在網主眼中場內圍觀的人不算多 (對比Leon其他活動),可是已聽到商場保安哥哥說 : 「嘩!今日咁多人!真係未試過多成咁!」......(網主心想 : 待會才知真章啊!);果然約十一時開始,不論歌迷及坊眾的人數都倍增,人流多得使保安們要把商場玻璃大門長開了。
- 11:35am,Leon在千呼萬喚中到場,身穿鮮橙色UNICEF的短袖Tee、深色摺腳牛仔褲,手上戴著一條金扣皮繩,面容好漂亮,尤其是一雙亮晶晶眼睛圓圓的、雙眼皮深深的好吸引! Leon先轉到後台,台上首先進行一些主辦機構代表的致辭及頒贈儀式,然後由司儀陳淑蘭及余而發介紹Leon上台。司儀先問Leon為UNICEF籌款的心情,Leon大概說 : 「心情年年都一樣,就係希望可以幫到中國 o既細路仔。」(註 : 細路仔=小孩子。) 說到糖果盒有Leon的肖像和用途,Leon說 : 「呢個盒好有用,可以用黎儲錢、可以用黎發洩Dum扁佢!」(註 : 可以用來做錢箱,也可以踏扁它來發洩。)
- 訪問完畢Leon就開始義賣,由於排在前頭的歌迷實在等得久了,也太開心,每個人都停留著不想走,加上記者們的攝影機,可謂「人機爭路」,所以隊伍移動緩慢。限於整日時間的安排,在Leon賣了給大概三十個人之後,大會在12:05pm就叫Leon停止了。然後又安排記者為Leon拍照,Leon花了幾分鐘讓記者拍過照片後,就離開商場,趕到第二站去。
- 第二站 ~~ 旺角新世紀廣場 :
- 除了Leon和記者外,歌迷 (尤其是在第一站等候很久而買不到愛心糖果的歌迷) 就更加趕著來到第二站了,希望補回由Leon手中接過愛心糖果的記憶,所以排隊人龍也是長長的。Leon在1:03pm到達,一上台就爭取時間義賣。有歌迷向Leon表示在第一站很早到場排隊也落空了,Leon點頭微笑表示理解,怎知還未到1:15pm,大會司儀就說Leon要趕時間到下一站,Leon聽罷,自己示意想多賣一些,不想排隊的人失望,然後就揚手叫排隊的人繼續,其中有人來到Leon面前時表示好害怕買不到,Leon溫柔地說 : 「不用怕,一定買到。」結果Leon再次不顧大會催促,自己揚手叫護衛讓人們繼續前來,最後在1:20pm才結束此站義賣。
- 第三站 ~~ 尖沙咀海港城 :
- Leon那輛保母車其實是和護衛車及記者車同時到達的,不過保母車仍要兜圈,先讓護衛和記者各自準備妥當,Leon才在1:50pm進入會場,先拿起咪高峰呼籲 : 「有心 o既可以買,如果唔係亦都可以繼續睇。」然後就爭取時間義賣。這處安排比較混亂,所以司儀余而發在中途說了多次「黎明歌迷請聽話!」Leon聽得多了,自己拿起咪高峰說 : 「唔好叫人聽話啦!由得佢地啦!」立刻引得哄堂大笑,大家的秩序反而好起來了!Leon逗留至2:15pm離開。
- 第四站 ~~ 香港仔中心外 :
- 由於這裡是戶外地方,又在人口密集的屋村中,聚集的坊眾就特別多,所以警方在這個義賣地點前的單程小路上嚴陣以待,多部警車停泊在路邊,又有交通警察指揮車輛。在這裡排隊或圍觀的人多是一家大小的街坊,大家都熱切期待著Leon的到來。Leon在3:10pm到達,群眾當然歡呼大作。Leon對這個場面也覺得很特別.......(尤其是在街邊擺賣吧!),Leon說 : 「我有D驚喜,原來 o係呢度賣!」,然後立刻開始。雖然這處陽光並不猛烈,但是Leon是非常怕熱愛流汗的人,所以大家可以看到他滿頭大汗,常常用手抹汗。這裡的坊眾買到糖果後都非常開心,有些「靚師奶」更立刻打電話給鄰居 : 「我同黎明握左手呀!哈哈...叫左你落黎排隊架啦,走寶喇.....哈哈哈......」有些坊眾也說 : 「嘩!咁靚,一盒廿蚊,都好抵喎!」歌迷當然立刻說 : 「係呀!好抵架,買啦!」。Leon在這站的心情好像特別的好,笑容和說話也特別多,逗留至3:30pm才上保母車。上車後,仍在車中向前面的歌迷微笑揮手才在交通警察幫助下離開......(這裡的交通警特別細心熱心,網主的車門也是由一位靚仔警察哥哥幫忙關上的。)
- 第五站 ~~ 銅鑼灣時代廣場 :
- 這處向來是人潮聚集的地方,所以早就擠滿人群。Leon在4:05pm到達,上台後司儀余而發問Leon到了五站義賣的心情,Leon大概說 : 「今次義賣係希望籌到D善款,買一D物資運到國內去幫助有需要 o既兒童,(再次強調)係物品,唔係俾錢。」。義賣非常順利,不過也是時間所限,無法由Leon親手賣給所有排隊的人就要在4:30pm結束義賣行動.......(還未買到的,可以到各OK便利店購買。)
- Leon回到台下,就接受記者訪問,其中一個是台灣電視台的,問了Leon一些問題,其中三條問答大概是 : 一,今天義賣是否辛苦?Leon : 「這是我的工作、我的責任....」;二,覺得今日的流程怎樣?Leon : 「每年也差不多吧!今年安排也不錯,在陽光猛烈的時候安排在室內,在陽光收歛後才安排在室外。」;三,今年的善款會不會比去年多?Leon : 「這是不能比較的,做善事是隨緣的。」做完訪問後,Leon就離開廣場了。
- 約4:55pm,Leon坐保母車離開,歌迷則早在停車場口等候,當車轉上地面時,Leon彎身面向歌迷,然後伸手把車上小燈開了,讓歌迷可以清楚看到他,又向四周歌迷揮手,大家都樂瘋了,圍著保母車慢慢走,一直走到大馬路才放棄。
- (網主 : 雖然Leon今天工作很累,但是整天都沒有戴過墨鏡,相反是精神飽滿、語音溫柔,也許這就是他做善事時的喜悅。)

- 7th August 1999 UNICEF Charity Sale
- Today, Leon helped to raise funds for UNICEF in the form of selling sweets to the public in five different locations. In the space of five hours, Leon went to and forth all the designated locations throughout HK!!
- 1st Stop: Cheung Kwan O Centre.
- This centre is not very big and because of the location is not in city centre, apart from the locals who lives there, outside guests are rare. But Today it is Different! A lot of fans has already arrived in the OK shop very early to queue, wishing that they can buy the "sweets" from Leon. At around 10:00am, it gathered a crowd already (however, in the eyes of the webmaster, not much people compare to other Leon events), but the security said "Wow, so many people, never happened before!...(webmaster: wait till they see later on!) At 11.00am, fans and other people began to pour into the centre and the security guards had to open the big glass door!
- 11.35am, Leon finally arrived! He was wearing a bright orange UNICEF tee shirt, dark navy jeans and wearing a very cute hand band. His features were very attractive today, especially his pair of sparkling eyes! The ceremony began with the organisers giving the opening speech and presenting memorial plagues to the participating organisers. Then the CM of the day, Chan Shuk Lan and Tsuen Yee Fat introduced Leon onto the stage. They asked Leon what special feelings did he have for participating in this event for the sixth year running, Leon replied " Feeling the same every year, the hope that we can help those children in need in China". Leon then explained the "multi-use" of the sweet box (with his face on it) "the box is very useful! it can be use as a saving box or use it as a stress box!"
- When the interview finished, Leon began to sell the sweets. Those who in the front, must have waited very long since they don't want to leave! and together with the cameras, it is really "squashed"! After Leon served around 30 people, at 12.05pm, Leon had to stop and rushed to the next location. Before he went to the second location, he stood for some photos for the media.
- 2nd Stop: Mongkok New Century Centre
- Apart from Leon, journalists and a lot of fans (some of them who waited a long time previously but didn't get to see Leon) had to rushed to Mongkok. The queue here is extraordinary long. Leon arrived at 1.03pm, and he wasted no time and began to sell the sweets. When fans told Leon that they waited a long time in the first location but couldn't buy any sweets. Leon smiled and nodded but at 1.15pm, Leon was been hurried to get to the next location. But Leon insisted that he wanted to sell more before leaving. He indicated to the crowd to continue and when some fans said to Leon that they were worried that they may not buy the sweets, Leon reassured them that "Don't Worry!Definitely available!" Leon ignored the plead of the CM there and instructed the security to let more people in and finally left at 1.20pm.
- 3rd Location: TST Harbour City
- Leon's van and the security van both arrived at the same time, but they had to let the security organised ahead before Leon can get in. Leon arrived at 1.50pm, and took the microphone and said " You can either buy the sweets or watch!". Again, he wasted no time and began his "selling"again. Because the crowd is really really large, some confusion began to set in. One of the CM said " Would Leon fans please behave!" Leon took the microphone off him and said " Don't say that! Let them do what they want!" Laughter broke out everywhere and the crowd settled down. Leon sped off at 2.15pm
- 4th Location: Aberdeen Centre:
- This is an outdoor location with a lot of residential area so it is more crowded than expected. The police was there to help with the crowd. A lot of locals were waiting to see Leon. Leon arrived at 3.10pm, and he was too amazed at this outdoor "stand". Leon said "I am surprised! I didn't know I am selling here!"
- Although the sun is not very strong, Leon was also "sweated" through! (as we know, Leon always soaked under the sun and heat!) Everyone there can see his sweat and he constantly uses his hand to wipe it off his face! Some of those who brought sweets from Leon immediately rang their friends and said " I shaked hands with Leon! haha! Told you to come down! you missed out!!" Some even praised that for $20, the sweet box is very cute and good value! We, fans of course think the same! Leon was in a very good mood and was talking to those "customers"! Leon left at 3.30pm, and under the guidance by the traffic police, Leon waved to the crowd from inside... (the police there was very friendly, the door of the webmaster's car was closed by one the nice handsome police!)
- 5th Location: Causeway Bay Time Squares:
- This is an extremely crowded shopping centre, with a lot of people gathering. Leon arrived at 4.05pm, and when asked what was his "feeling" on his fifth location of the day, Leon said " This sell is the hope that we can raise funds, so that we can buy some necessary goods to those children in need." He emphasised that the donation is in the form of goods, and not cash. With limited time, at 4.30pm, this memorable event was brought to an end. (those who didn't get a chance to buy, please purchase it at any OK shop near you)
- Leon was then interviewed by the media, which included a journalist from Taiwan and they asked some questions which included: Was it hard work today? Leon replied "Not at all! This is my job, my responability..." How did you felt about the arrangement of today's schedule? Leon "Nearly the same every year, quite good this year, considering when the sun was strong, I was indoors and vice versa" Will the donation figure be higher than of last year? Leon replied ! You cannot compare it like that, you cannot calculate charity donation."
- At 4.55pm, Leon begin to depart and fans were already waiting for him outside the carpark. Leon switched on the light inside so that the fans can see him and he waved to all the fans! Every body was in very high spirit and surrounded the van until it left for the highway.
- (webmaster: although Leon's work today was very tiring, he didn't wear any sunglasses all day and was in very good condition. His tone was very gentle, which showed that how happy he was seeing so many people supporting charity.)
