2000年2月24日  Leon由美國返港

Leon今早乘國泰航機於由三藩市回港,早於5:30am七名前來接機的歌迷和兩名secure已到達機場大樓,6:00am開始記者也陸續到達,最後竟然有近十名記者前來。航機準時在6:30am著陸,Stanley和兩名secure隨即步向B閘禁區出口等候,歌迷及記者當然緊緊跟隨囉。
當大家等呀等至6:55am,忽然記者們非常緊張走到閘口舉機拍照,原來是王菲帶著菲傭和女兒回港,記者們擁著王菲走開,此刻歌迷都渴望Leon快點出閘,讓歌迷有多些空間和Leon交談,可惜記者回來後才見阿B推著四箱行李慢慢步出禁區,阿B和記者們及歌迷打過招呼後,將行李推到上層。約在7:04am,Leon一面和陪同他的髮型師Sev交談,一面步出禁區,Leon的衣飾和離港飛美時完全一樣,只是多加了一副淺綠烏蠅太陽鏡。
看到Leon心情平和,歌迷也就消了緊張,反而記者們非常緊張地搶位,以致連自動相機也掉了又掉的。Leon步出禁區後立刻由邊旁閃出走上自動電梯,記者和歌迷們緊隨其後,由於相機實在太多,機場又靜得出奇,歌迷不敢大叫Leon、又不願走近他而被拍,所以都沒有圍上,直至Leon走出機場大樓玻璃門外後,對著一名記者說 :「咁早就影咁多,都夠啦......返屋企訓下覺啦!」這一夠話令記者們窒步,歌迷則先行跑過了小馬路站到保母車旁,Leon走到車旁之時,有歌迷送上一份禮物說:「Leon,係我呀,收啦。」Leon望一望她,就將禮物收下,同時也收下另一位歌迷的信。上車後,Leon望向車外的歌迷,然後保母車駛離。
(網主 : 在香港等待著Leon的似乎是連串的工作啊!)

24.02.2000 Leon returns to HK


Leon returns to Hong Kong from SF this morning on the Cathay Pacific flight. As early as 5.30am, seven fans and two security guards already were at the airport building. At 6.00am, journalists began to arrive also, and there were around 10 journalists in total. The flight arrived on time at 6.30am, while Stanley and Co. were standing by at Gate B, thus fans and journalists followed suit.
When everyone was still waiting, at 6.55am, some journalists fraically towards the arrive gate and taking photos. It was Faye Wong and her daughter returning to HK, and fans at this stage hoped that Leon would come out now so that they can chat more freely. However until the journalists return, then only Ah Bee pushed the luggage slowly walking out. Ah Bee greeted the fans and journalists and then he slowly pushed the luggage onto the upper level. At around 7.04am, while chatting with his hair stylist Sev, Leon walked from the arrival gate. Leon's clothing were the same as he left HK, with only an extra pair of the large green sunglasses. Fans relaxed as they saw Leon were very calm but the journalists got anxious to get into a good position to take photographs. Leon slipped out of the arrival gate in his usual path and went immediately onto the escalators, while fans and journalists followed. Since there were a lot of cameras and the airport was very quiet, fans didn't want to scream too loud and also didn't want to walk to close to be in the frame of the photographs. Until Leon stepped out of the glass door of the airport building and said to one of the journalist " Photograph so many so early in the morning ? enough? Go home to sleep la!" Some journalists halted a little while fans crossed the road and waited beside Leon's van. As Leon was about to ascend the van, a fan handed him a gift and said "Leon, it's me, please take it!" Leon looked at her and accepted the gift and also received another letter written by the other fan. When he got inside the van, Leon still looked at the van outside and then the van sped off.

2000年2月18日  Leon飛美國拍廣告

Leon今晚乘國泰航機於10:50pm起飛往三藩市,這次飛美國拍廣告可以說是事先張揚的行程,他多次在傳媒面前提及出發日期和地點,所以有心到機場送機的fans這次必定不會落空。因此還未到8:00pm,已陸續有歌迷到達機場,此外記者群也特別大,相信保守估計也有15人。
兩名secure及過百名歌迷約在9:10pm已站到機場大樓外等候,secure守在2號門,歌迷則大部份守在1號門,不料等啊等仍不見,部份歌迷已心急得過了小馬路等候,直到10:20pm,保母車才來到,卻停在1、2號門之間,先是子泉下車,繼而是Leon,已立刻被情緒高漲的歌迷所包圍。
Leon頭戴鴨咀帽、身上是深監色細密PVC外套和穿過多次的灰色闊褲,黑色皮鞋。一下車就問子泉:「Stanley呢?」子泉就問兩個剛由2號門跑到的secure:「Stanley呢?」兩名secure也無答案,然後Leon就由Secure、歌迷、記者團團圍住之下慢慢開步。過了馬路就有歌迷遞上口香糖,Leon輕輕表示不想收吃的東西。有記者竟不顧一切站上行李車拍攝,不過行李車卻擋在門中,被secure推開了。這次包圍住Leon四周的都是平日和Leon有說有笑的歌迷,所以沿途對答比較有趣 。
先是數名年輕歌迷,問 :「Leon,Sony(貓)點呀?」Leon : 「無野喇。」再問 :「咁Bambie呢?」Leon縐一縐眉 :「唔好問埋呢d野住....唔好迫啦。」
下斜路時就由另一群開口,女fans問Leon: 「Leon,上次俾你D野有冇睇過呀?」Leon :「未睇呀!」
fans: 「耶~~你又話會睇o既 ~~」Leon :「未睇呀...遲D啦....」
fans: 「拿,你應承左睇架」Leon : 「係喇!」
其間不斷有人遞上利是及其他東西,Leon將利是都接收了,但是很多歌迷送上其他零食等等都一一回絕了。
fans又遞上巧克力,Leon:「唔要喇,我唔食架。」fans :「要啦....收啦」
Leon:「唔收,收左我都唔食o既!」
fans發嗲:「哦~~~唔制呀,你做咩個個都收,淨係唔收我o個份喎!」
Leon : 「我都冇收其他呀!」
另一fans取笑Leon: 「淨係收利是,唔收其他野,咁市儈........」Leon聽到笑了。
fans: 「咁我下次俾你,你要收喎。」
Leon笑 :「好啦。」
這時記者猛拍照,Leon只能慢步,fans看到那麼多鏡頭,又攪笑 :「嘩,我地映合照囉!」fans :「好呀 ~~」幾個就近Leon的fans就對住鏡頭舉起V字手勢,Leon簡直哭笑不得,然後其中一個secure踏中前面一個歌迷的鞋,鬆了鞋跟,fans就向前面擋路的記者大叫:「唔該行快少少,我隻鞋甩左!」兩個fans就取笑 :「你扮野咋卦?」站在後面的Leon立刻低頭看到她的鞋跟真的鬆了,也就說: 「唔好咁迫啦!」
臨近禁區前,身穿橙色衫的Stanley突然趕到,立刻貼近Leon,歌迷就向Leon說Bye-bye,Leon也很開心的回應bye-bye,然後才進禁區。Leon過了海關後,立刻回頭向禁區外的歌迷大力揮手,歌迷都非常興奮的回應,這時禁區外一些旅客說: 「入去o個個一定係巨星喇!」
Leon過了海關,就和B仔乘「無人駕駛」到登機閘口,在閘口前說了數分鐘電話才登機。

18.02.2000 Leon to SF, USA


Tonight, Leon will fly to San Francisco on the Cathay flight at 10.50pm. Because this schedule has been publicised earlier (Leon mentioned this trip many times to the media). Thus, those fans planning to come, will definitely be able to see Leon. Just before 8.00pm, many fans began to arrived at the airport. There was a large presence of the media also, around 15 person or so.


Two security and over 100 fans arrived at 9.10pm, the security stood outside the no. 2 door, while the majority of the fans waited outside the no. 1 door. Until 10.20pm, Leon's van arrived and stopped between door No.1 and No. 2. First, Chi Chuen got off and then Leon. Immediately, he was surrounded by those exciting fans.


Leon was wearing a cap, a light blue PVC jacket and the usual grey baggy trousers with black shoes. Once he got off the van, he asked Chi Chuen "Where is Stanley?". Chi Chuen then asked the two secure and they didn't seem to know either. Then Leon was accompanied by secure, fans and journalists, walking towards the airport building. As they crossed the road, some fans offered Leon some chewing gum but Leon gently refused, gesturing that he didn't want any food today. Not regarding safety, some journalists stood on the luggage trolleys inorder to take photos of Leon. However since those trolleys were in the way of the doors, the secure had to move them. This time, those surrounding Leon are those usual fans whom Leon is more familiar with. Thus, the chat was a little interesting.


First, a couple of young fans asked Leon "Leon, is Sony (cat) feeling better?" Leon replied " Fine now!". Then asked "How is Bamby?" Leon frowned and said " Don't ask those things now,don't push!" As they walked down the slope, a female fans asked Leon "Leon, the things I gave you the last time, did you look at it?" Leon said "Not yet" "But you agreed to look at it!" Leon said " Not yet... I will later!" " You promise me!" Leon replied "Yes!". In the meantime, a lot of people fans gave him a lot of things, Leon accepted the red pockets but refused the little snacks given to him. Some fans handed him some chocolates, Leon said "I don't want it, I wont eat it!" Fans said "Please take it! " Leon said " No! Even if I take it, I still wont eat it!" The fan then said " Hm... Why you accept everyone's but mine?" Leon said "But I didn't accept the others!" Another fan joined in and said "Only take red pocket... Money first!" Leon smiled as he heard it! The fan then said "OK! so if I give it to you next time, you must accept it!" Leon said "OK!" At this stage, the photographers were taking shoots of Leon non stop, and Leon slowed down. When fans saw so much cameras, they joked "Let's take a grand photo!", then all made a "V" sign! Leon was very amused by this and then one of the secure stepped on a fan's shoe infront and then she said to the journalists infront "Please walk faster, my shoe became loose!" Other fans thought she was joking but Leon, who was behind looked at her shoe, which was loose, then said "Please don't Push!"


Just before they reached the customs, Stanley was weatring an orange shirt finally arrived, and stood close to Leon. Fans began to say goodbye to Leon and Leon happily replied, and then went inside. As Leon passed the customs, looked back and waved strongly to the fans and fans happily replied. One of the tourist who was at the customs said "that was a superstar who just walked inside!". Inside, Leon and Ah Bee travelled on the interior train and went to their departure gate, and before ascending, he talked a couple of minutes on the mobile phone.


2000年2月13-14日  大馬演唱會記招及賣票活動

13/2/2000:
Leon今天乘坐10:20am的國泰航機到馬來西亞首都吉隆坡為三月四日舉行的演唱會開記者會,保母車在9:10am已抵達機場,子泉下車為Leon辦理登機手續,然後Stanley和子泉就回到上層等候,今天是星期天,所以來到準備送Leon機的歌迷為數不少,接近百人,而傳媒似乎有意訪問Leon,所以亦有派文字記者及攝影記者到場,因此場面熱鬧。記者們更在等候期間向子泉要求為Leon做訪問。
保母車在9:25am駛回,先是子泉上車和Leon說話,然後子泉和髮型師Sev下車讓兩三位文字記者上車做訪問,只見Leon向記者不停說話,而攝影記者則不時向站在馬路對面的歌迷們拍照。在訪問其間不段有機場人員及交通督導員查看為什麼這輛車停泊過久而又被記者包圍,還有一位婆婆fans不顧一切拿著利是衝過馬路走到保母車旁,由B仔打開車窗接收利是,攝記當然立刻拍下精彩鏡頭,當婆婆返回歌迷堆時還得到歌迷的熱烈歡呼!
Leon終於在9:37am完成訪問步下保母車,他身穿鮮黃Tee及黑色軟皮Jacket配淺藍色牛仔褲深啡色軟羔皮鞋,jacket的袖口及領邊均有金色拉鍊,面上仍是那一副大大淺綠烏繩太陽鏡。Leon下車後並沒有停下來讓攝影記者拍照就在Stanley及Secure保護下走過馬路,另一方面,B仔就將保母車飛快駛離。
Leon過馬路開始,歌迷不斷和他說早晨,Leon臉上極是歡容,也不斷地接收歌迷遞給他的大利是和禮物,拿得一隻手滿滿的,有些歌迷無法迫近,也由Stanley接過,再慢慢「攝」入Leon緊緊的手指罅隙中。歌迷向Leon說 : 「Leon你收左幾利是錢呀?」Leon微微垂頭地笑。記者則不斷追近Leon來拍照,今天機場check-in counter外都有圍欄,因此大家常常要迂迴地避開並且互相提示以免歌迷出醜令Leon尷尬,不料中途「彭」一聲,必定是有人踫跌了圍欄,卻原來是個記者,歌迷安心大聲說: 「係記者!」Leon望一望後,也禁不住笑。
其後又有開玩笑的年輕女歌迷向Leon說 :「Leon,出年(明年)我派利是俾你!」Leon奇怪地縐一縐眉,歌迷笑說 :「我尋日(昨日)結婚,聽日生仔(明日生小孩)!」Leon笑她 :「痴線!」這時人群湧到禁區邊,開始向Leon說Bye-bye,Leon也很有反應地逐一回應Bye-bye,這時有兩位韓國女遊客剛巧站在禁區前,其中一位忽然發現人群當中的是Leon時,立刻用韓語大叫:「喵喵 (譯音)」再叫她的朋友一同看,兩位韓國旅客充份流露出遇到黎明的歡欣。這時Leon和Stanley在阿佳引路下進入禁區,在步入禁區後Leon立刻回頭和站在禁區邊的歌迷揮手說再見。
進入禁區後,天恩、子泉、Sev、阿佳,Stanley等人連同Leon一起排隊過海關,不過Leon卻排最後...... (奇怪嗎?) Leon在經過海關柜位時,先將太陽鏡除下,經過後再戴上,過了海關後Leon追上天恩將一些東西交給他,然後才繞道穿過X-ray,眾人等他過了X-ray後就一齊步下機場商場。
........待續!

13-14 Feb 2000 To KL


13.02.2000
Leon leaves for Kuala Lumpur on the Cathay Pacific at 10.20am to attend his forth coming concert press conference on 04.03.2000. His van arrived at the airport at 9.10am. Chi Chuen got off the van first so that he can check in. After check in, Chi Chuen and Stanley went the upper level to wait. Since today it is Sunday, there were a lot of fans in the airport, around 100 or so. The media also seem to be interested in interviewing Leon, thus both photographers and journalists were waiting. The airport certainly is full of ambience today! While waiting, many journalists asked Chi Chuen if they can do an interview with Leon.
The Van returned at 9.25am, first Chi Chuen went into the van to talk to Leon, then Chi Chuen and hair stylist Sev descended from the van so that three journalists went into the van to conduct the interview. It can be seen that Leon was speaking non stop while photographers were taking photos of fans on the other side of the road. During the interview, some airport officials came over to see why that there was a van parked here so long and with so many people surrounding it. There was also an elderly female fans, under all obstacles ran over towards Leon's van so that she can give Leon a red pocket! Ah Bee turned down the window to accept it! The photographers didn't resist such a good opportunity! When she returned to the fans, she got a big welcome! At 9.37am, Leon finally finished his interview and descended from the van. He was wearing a yellow tee shirt, soft black leather jacket(with gold zips at the sleeves and necks), light blue jeans, brown suede shoes and his usual "large" sunglasses. When Leon descended from the van, he didn't stop to let the photographers to take photos and continued to cross the road under the security team of Stanley and co. On the other hand, Ah Bee drove the van away.
As Leon was crossing the road, there were a lot of fans greeting him good morning. Leon was smiling and seems to be in very good form. He continuously received gifts and red pockets until his hand was full! Those fans who couldn't reach him gave it to Stanley, while Stanley slipped it into Leon's hands. Fans asked Leon " Leon, how much red pocket money did you receive?" Leon gave a smile as his answer. Photographers also tried to get near Leon to get a photo. However, today there was a railing at the check in counter, thus everyone had to avoid tripping into them to avoid any fall or action which can embarrass Leon. Regardless, there was a "bang" noise, someone must have tipped over the railings, but it was a journalists that was the culprit. Fans wholeheartedly loudly " It was a journalists!" Leon had a glance and couldn't resist and smiled.
There was also a young funny fan who said to Leon "Leon, next year, I'll give you a red pocket!" Leon strangely frowned and the fan continued "I got married yesterday, tomorrow will bear a child!" Leon laughed and said "Silly!" Soon, they reached the customs area and everyone began to say goodbye to Leon. Leon replied the same, At the same time, there were two female Korean tourists who spotted Leon and in Korean, said "Yim Yong"(Korean pronunciation) and asked her friend to look! They were thrilled to see Leon! Under Ah Guy's guidance, Leon and Stanley went into the customs. As Leon was inside, Leon looked him and waved the fans goodbye.
Inside, Tin Yan, Chi Chuen, Sev, Ah Guy, Stanley and Leon all queued for immigration; but Leon was at the back of the queue (strange?). Leon took off his glass for inspection and then put it back again when he finished. After that, Leon caught up to Tin Yan to give him something and then went back to the x-rays. Others waited for him to pass the x-ray counter and then all headed towards the duty free shopping area.
At 2.10pm, Leon arrived at KL airport and stepped out to the public at 2.36pm. Wearing the same clothes, as soon as Leon stepped out, he was all smiles! He even said "Hi!" to those Leon family members standing on the right waiting for him! Walked two more steps, he smiled again to the fans and waved! Together with his assistants and security team, they went towards their transport. In the Benz, were Leon, Tin Yan and Stanley, while Chi Chuen and the other Sony officials went into the other Nissan Serena. In total, there were five cars(including the security). Leon's car was forth in the line.
At 3.20pm, Leon, using the main entrance enter the JW Marriot Hotel. He went straight to his room while some fans were waiting for him outside the Salon A Ballroom for his press conference. There were around 20 or so security guards monitoring the floor!
At 5.15pm, together with his assistant, he left his room to take the elevator to go to the Level LL3 conference room for the press conference. Leon was wearing a peach coloured suit with white shirt and black shoes. The top three buttons of his shirt were unbuttoned! (so Sexy!). From the lift to the conference required around three minutes. Leon had his right hand in his trousers pocket as he was walking. He was walking with a smile as he stepped inside the conference room, second from the right. The door was closed then. We can hear that there were clapping and after five minutes he went into the other conference room for the official press conference. At the same time, fans already gathered outside (although it was raining lightly). At around 5.45pm, Leon walked from the conference room to the lobby. There were two dancing lions waiting for him. The lion danced for a couple of minutes and then together with Leon, they walked outside and went on stage to officially opened the ticket sales. The rain was starting to get heavy but it didn't deter anyone away, all were standing in the rain just to see Leon! Leon talked a lot but the best part was when Leon put his hand on the switch and tons of confetti fell from the sky and his large poster was revealed! When the ceremony was finished, the host asked Leon to pose with the lions and his large poster so that fans and photographers alike can get some good photos. Then, at 6.08pm, Chi Chuen escorted Leon back to the hotel with the umbrella since it was raining very heavily now. When Leon went into the hotel, he went to the conference room again to give a telephone interview to FM988 (local radio station). At around 6.20pm, Leon went back to his hotel room to rest and didn't leave after that (for dinner, he just ordered room service.
14.02.2000
Leon arrived in the airport at around 8.25am. His clothes were nearly the same as of 13.02, except he changed to a white tee shirt. Stanley accompanied him to remain in the car while the others checked in. At 8.45am, Leon made way towards departure. On the way, fans waved goodbye to him and Leon replied "Very quickly we can see each other again!"
Today at HK airport; not only were there a lot of tourists, Leon fans, but there were also a lot of journalists. It seems that Leon is one of their important target, thus they spread out both in gate A and B inorder not to miss Leon. Leon arrived into HK on Cathay Pacific flight CX720 at 1.45pm. This arrival sign showed that the arrival gate for that flight should be at Gate B, thus a majority of the fans gathered around gate B. However, at 2.10pm, fans suddenly received news that Leon is about to exit out of gate A, everyone ran towards there. Journalists follow suit. When everyone finally reached gate A (out of breath!), those journalists already at gate A already caught a glimpse of Leon. From behind the glass door; Leon, Chi Chuen, Ah Guy, Stanley and Siu Wai etc were stepping out of the customs. Security immediately to open road ahead for Leon, while still slipped out of there in his usual path and were surrounded by fans as they walked up the escalator. Part of the photographers were already on the escalators taking photos of Leon and Leon co-operated with them well. Other slower photographers who couldn't reach in time, simply screamed to Leon from the bottom of the escalators and Leon turned back so that they can get a photo of him.
As they reached the upper level, some fans who had brought some small gifts to Leon noticed that Leon didn't received any gifts yet! So they immediately gave it to Leon, and Leon was very friendly and he received them all. Since there were a lot of gifts, fans asked Leon to use one of the gifts bags to put other gifts in.
Leon was walking quite quickly today, both fans and journalists were unable to get any word out of him. One female journalists, who were running up the slope commented "This is no good, sure we can talk to him?" At this stage, fans already began said goodbye to Leon and Leon replied and then he crossed the road to his van and the van soon sped off.

2000年2月12日  新春開年

2000年2月5日  北京返港

Leon今天乘中國航空班機由北京回港,由原定3:55pm延至4:07分著陸,隨他一同到北京表演的八位舞蹈員則坐港龍客機,比Leon早二十分鐘抵港。今天接機大堂也沒有想像中擠擁,來機場接機的歌迷人數不算多,看來只有三四十人,為免遇上Leon情緒不妙而首當其衝,除了三名歌迷,其他都沒有站到Leon閃身而出禁區的截徑上,而是在較遠的圍欄外觀望。
子泉和阿佳在4:25pm推著行李步出禁區,Leon卻沒有同行,使一些歌迷大為緊張,連正在等候的幾名記者也禁不住走向子泉問過明白,不過只過了三分鐘,Leon就在Stanley和王凱文的陪同下步出禁區。Leon的衣飾配撘和離境時完全一樣,只是多配戴了一頂漁夫帽。Leon仍在玻璃門內已步履不慢,遠遠一瞥到禁區外三名歌迷阻其去路,立刻用手勢「撥」開,三名歌迷即時讓開,Leon閃身而出就直往自動電梯,歌迷則緊隨其後,兩名secure返被迫在後面。到了上層,早在上層等候的歌迷圍上後,Leon才略為減慢速度,此時上層大批記者發現Leon影蹤也就一同圍上來拍照,Leon也沒有迴避,直望鏡頭讓他們拍照。
歌迷見Leon態度鬆容就開始遞上「利是」及信件,Leon也一一收下,而且每每歌迷向他說新年祝福語,Leon都有立刻回應:
歌迷 : 「Leon,北京凍唔凍呀?」Leon : 「舒服過香港!」
歌迷 : 「Leon你去旅行玩得開心d 喎。」Leon立刻說 : 「冇...」一面說一面望記者鏡頭。
歌迷 : 「Leon,恭喜發財!」Leon: 「恭喜發財!」
歌迷紛紛說 : 「Leon,龍馬精神.....」Leon : 「大家咁話!」
眾人以極快速來到保母車前,Leon急急上車然後離去。

Those dancers who accompanied to perform in Beijing arrived 20 minutes before him, on the Dragon Airline flight. The arrival hall today had less people than expected, thus it was not too crowded. Fans that came today were not big in numbers; with only 30-40 fans there today. In order to avoid what happened last time, only three fans stood in Leon's usual path, while the rest observed from a distance.


Chi Chuen and Ah Guy arrived first with the luggage but with no sign of Leon. Fans became a little worried! Not only so, but journalists who were waiting became anxious also and asked Chi Chuen for more details. However, in less than 3 minutes, together with Stanley and Alvin Wang, Leon stepped out of the arrival area. Today, Leon was wearing the same clothes as he wore when leaving Hong Kong a couple of days ago, but he had an extra "fisherman's hat" this time. Before Leon stepped out of the glass door, his pace was quite rapid and when he saw that there were three fans in his "usual path" (a gap in between the railings), he signalled them to move aside. They immediately stepped away and Leon swiftly flew passed. When he went onto the escalator, fans followed him. Two security guard were left at the back. As they reached the upper level, there were some fans waiting and surrounded Leon, and only then did Leon drop pace. The journalists soon spotted Leon and went up to take some photographs. Leon didn't retreat and looked straight into the camera so that they can take the photos.


When fans saw that Leon began to loosen, they handed him "new year red pockets" and some letters. Leon received them all, and fans greeted Leon with many new year greetings, Leon also responded.
Some fans asked " Leon, was it cold in Beijing?" Leon replied "More comfortable than Hong Kong". Another fan said "Leon, have a great time when you go on holiday!" Leon immediately replied " Not.....". As he said, he was staring into the journalists' camera. Fans then said "Leon, Prosper in the new year! Leon replied the same. Then other fans joined in "Leon, Best of health in New Year!". Leon replied " And the same to everyone!" Everyone walked very quickly towards his van, and when he arrived, he jumped very quickly on the van and drove off.

2000年2月2日  為演出春節聯歡晚會又飛北京

Leon今天乘12:20pm的中國航空班機飛往北京準備二月四日為中央電視台演出春節聯歡晚會。由於Leon行程保密又飄忽,所以今早能趕及到機場的歌迷只有十五人。
Leon的保母車在11:20am已到達機場,先讓子泉下車辦理登機手續,車內的Leon先坐保母車暫離然後再在11:35am折返。此時一個女記者成功上保母車為Leon作訪問直至11:45am,Leon下車在外讓她拍照。Leon身穿上次回港時那條炭灰色牛仔褲,配一件灰色樽領毛衣,毛衣胸前綴有米白色巨大P字,樽領邊亦綴有米白綑邊,加一件深藍色企領拉餗開胸外衣,這件褸在衣身兩側亦有拉餗的。Leon戴著淺綠烏蠅太陽鏡,將手提電話無線聽筒吊在毛衣領外。
Leon過了馬路,歌迷立刻迎上前但不敢走太近,向他說 : 「Leon,早晨呀,北京好凍呀!」Leon :「哦。」歌迷就將朱古力給他說:「朱古力黎架,記住食喇,食左冇咁涷。」Leon收下了,其他歌迷見Leon反應不錯就紛紛將禮物交給他,Leon都一一收下。
有歌迷畫了一幅 "L咀"卡通公仔給Leon,說:「Leon,你收丫,睇一次咁多丫!」
Leon看一看,歌迷又問 : 「似唔似呀?」Leon : 「唔係幾似!」
有歌迷送Leon朱古力出奇旦,Leon說: 「聖誕都過左咯喎!」然後將旦交回。
有歌迷對Leon說上次百萬行之後淋雨病了....(這個並非網主啊!),Leon說: 「病左咪食藥囉!」
途中有記者影相,Leon身旁一個歌迷說: 「唔好影到我,你個artist o係o個邊!」
Leon細聲對這個歌迷說: 「驚人影到咪行開一邊囉!」
歌迷 : 「你係Artist我唔係嘛!」又有歌迷撘口 : 「我地費事搶你鏡嘛!哈哈!我地係綠葉!」
如此擾擾嚷嚷地到了禁區口,Leon快步由欄杆邊位閃身而入,進了禁區後回頭向歌迷揮手再見。今天禁區特別人多,Leon也要排隊過海關,排隊時Leon再次回頭向歌迷揮手。到了出境柜位,Leon將太陽鏡脫下一會讓海關關員看看,然後再戴上,過了海關離去。

02.02.2000 To Beijing
Today, Leon took China Airline flight, at 12.20pm, to Beijing to prepare for CCTV's Chinese New Year Show on the 4th Feb. Since Leon's schedule wasn't disclosed, only 15 or so fans went to the airport.


Leon's van arrived at the airport at 11.20am; while Chi Chuen first got off to check in for Leon. Leon remained in the van when it drove off and returned at 11.35am. At that time, a female journalist were successful in conducting an interview with Leon inside the van. At 11.45am, both descended from the van in order to take some photos. Leon was wearing the same grey jeans, grey polo neck jumper with a big white "P" design. He also had a navy jacket on the outside. This jacket had zips on both sides. Leon was wearing the same large green sunglasses while his "hands- free" device for his mobile phone were hanging on his jacket.


As Leon crossed the road, fans were a little scare to go too close, so they gently said to Leon "Leon, Good Morning! It is very cold in Beijing". Leon replied "Oh!" Some fans gave him some chocolate and said to him "These are chocolates, remember to eat them, you will feel less cold". Leon received them. When other fans saw Leon's response was quite positive, they all began to handed Leon some gifts, Leon happily accepted them all.


A fan drew a cartoon picture of "L-shaped" mouth of Leon and said "Leon, Please take it, just have a look, even once!" Leon looked at it, and another fan asked "Do it look like you?" Leon said "Not really". Another fan gave Leon some Christmas chocolates, Leon saw it and said " It's passed Christmas already!" and then handed it back to the fan.


A fan told Leon that she became sick after walking the charity walk in the rain last time, and Leon said to her "If sick, then take some medication!" On the way, journalists were taking photos of Leon, and some fans who were beside him said "Please don't let me get into the frame, your artist are over there!" Leon said to that fan quietly "If you are scare of being on camera, then go aside somewhere else!" She said "You are artist, I am not!" Then another fan said "We don't want to catch your limelight! Haha! We are compliments!"


Soon, they reached the departure area. Leon began to increase pace and "slipped" between the two railings and entered the customs area. He looked back and waved the fans goodbye. There were a lot of people were departing, there were a queue inside the customs. Leon was queuing, and he took off his sunglasses for immigration inspections, then put them back on again before leaving to catch his plane.
