12時正，台上以手提電腦為主體裝飾了大螢幕，兩位高水準司儀 吳大維及周瑛琦出台，先介紹StarEast董事長黃道勤先生上台致辭，黃先生期許在leonstareastnet.com啟播後，stareast的瀏覽人次可衝破二百萬！.........(預祝馬到功成！) 黃先生更重點提到Leon的網頁有不少廣告商主動作出合作建議，其中已有和記，各瀏覽者可以在網頁內選購手提電話並有折扣及Leon's collection作贈品。黃先生致辭完畢後，立刻由司儀介紹和記副董事長顏劍英上台，顏先生上台後表示和記與Leon多年合作成績美滿，稍後將有合作計劃，六月將由Leon介紹和記Wap Phone，並可用wap phone上Leon的網頁，現場觀眾聽到後即時歡聲勁響。
司儀接著介紹今天的主角Leon出場，Leon穿長袖針織大紅上衣，配白色長褲，在fans的一片叫聲下，由台左拾級而上。行至台的中央，笑說他的這個網頁是「細路仔」 (= 小孩子)，然後又由兩位司儀引領下到台左將網頁內容逐項介紹。


Lifestyle
Leon說這是一本網上雜誌，介紹時興物品，這時螢幕顯示click進了lifestyle那頁，立刻現出穿三點式泳衣的熱女郎，而且畫面停頓，在場記者即時哄動舉機，Leon怪不好意思的說 : 「因為夏天就快到，所以介紹泳衣。」就說到網內有介紹時興物品，例如fashion。大螢幕當然又click進fashion那部份啦，不料正是介紹bikini，那隻mouse又click一下放大中間那副圖片，David Wu很好笑的說這是Leon介紹最流行的，Leon立刻補充說 : 「唔包括pose」 (不包括那坐姿)，台上台下都笑了。.......(網主 : 大家自行到網頁查看吧，也由此看出Leon對女性的部份要求。)
e-comics
這部份的故事是Leon有參與的。Leon說故事會一集一集的說下去，完半後再換另一個。現時有兩個，一個是真人拍攝的愛情劇，另一個是卡通製作的科幻故事。當click到科幻故事的人物介紹時，David看著男主角問是否Leon時，Leon立刻說 :「唔係！」，而另 一個人物叫大偉，David Wu立刻興奮的說他也有份兒。
neogames
司儀跳過our-leon，先介紹neogames，Leon親自介紹歐洲國家杯足球遊戲，並說這頁是由各地人材設計，叫網友必定要玩遊戲儲積分啊！現在只是開始階段，遲些陸續會有新東西可看可玩。
Our Leon
最後當然是Leon fans期望已久的our Leon啦，大螢幕click進 Leon的片段，相當有趣。Leon說他會不斷將自己的一些有趣片段搬上網頁內。
介紹完畢，Leon先返回後台，然後是司儀介紹leonstareastnet.com最新版本廣告全球首播。開始播放時，Leon立刻由後台走出台下，坐到中央第一排阿叻身旁一齊觀賞。看完片段，整個啟播儀式完成，Leon立刻站起和各VIP握手，又站到記者席前讓他們拍單人照，並和王晶等一班stareast董事拍照。當拍照完畢後，Leon又忙著和各人握手，不過記者認為合照不夠，叫公關再安排各人來個大合照，這時Leon和各人立刻擺pose，將大姆指直豎，而且大叫一聲以示旗開必勝。
Leon拍完照後，各嘉賓由台右離開，而Leon也一面和嘉賓握手，一面步向台右，並向那邊fans群揮手，不過後來他又轉身走回台左，這時有fans伸手向他祝賀:「Leon恭喜你！」Leon立刻高興地伸手來握，另一位也握手道賀說: "Leon，congratulations and well done!" Leon 開心地笑著返回後台。
Leon返回後台之後，文字記者被安排到後台採訪約二十分鐘，然後大會安排攝影記者進入後台拍攝。
Leon的保母車在1:55pm離開舊翼停車場，停車場外早已佈滿fans在等候，Leon今天非常開心，將車內的燈開了，讓歌迷可以非常清楚看到他向各人揮手，而坐在車頭的子泉則用v-cam拍攝。
(網主 : 祝Leon一網風行全球，帶領資訊潮流！)

2000年4月28日  「零錢佈施」閉幕典禮

由國泰航空公司為UNICEF舉辦的「零錢佈施」籌款活動，今日進行閉幕典禮，儀式於3:00pm在沙國威爾斯醫院「專職護理部門」舉行。兩名Stanley Team Secure及十多名歌迷早在1:30pm已到達，然後歌迷人數陸續增至二十多人，由於這個儀式沒有公開邀請娛樂版記者到場，報紙「星縱」亦欠奉，不過有些娛記仍收到消息自行前來.........(看到本網消息？噢！)。
今天持續下大雨，地面濕滑，醫院保安員則在記者會場外架起鐵欄。約2:45pm，不少病童紛紛在醫護人員照顧下到達，有好幾個知道將會見到Leon，都表現得很高興。
Leon乘坐的保母車在3:20pm駛到，貼近橫門停車，歌迷為見Leon一面，當然走近，Stanley隨即喝止歌迷，待各人後退站好後，Leon才離開車廂。Leon身穿紅色短袖Tee，背後印有UNICEF中英文字樣，配牛仔褲，下車時沒有戴墨鏡，面色紅潤，精神很好。Leon只消兩步就進入了會場。
當Leon到達後，儀式馬上舉行，Leon坐在前排第二位，左面坐的是馮慶彪醫生。先由UNICEF的馮醫生致辭，接著是UNICEF另一位女代表、國泰航空代表及一名專科教授分別致辭，直至3:40pm由Leon作最後致辭。Leon站到咪高鋒前的時候，右手拿著一副太陽鏡。致辭完畢後，Leon和各位主禮人及嘉賓拍照留念。
當儀式完畢後，在場外的歌迷就冒雨陸續圍在保母車附近 (但仍保持距離)，以求多見Leon一面。約3:52pm，Leon在secure包圍下步出橫門，一瞬間歌迷立刻忍不住起哄，當Leon正要上車之際，兩名歌迷走近，第一個急急叫了三聲Leon，Leon回眸一看，原來歌迷手上拿住一封信想交給他，正當Stanley想出手欄開的時候，雨傘下的Leon溫柔地主動伸手將信接過，Stanley見Leon如此也就沒有阻撓，這時另一個歌迷n說 : 「係HK Standard 影評黎架！」Leon看到立刻展出笑容，開心地收下，然後上了保母車，接著是幾個娛樂記者也上了車做訪問。這時雨下得更大了，在車外只可以看到Leon的身影，其他什麼也看不到了。
記者完成訪問後，保母車在4:05pm開動，歌迷在沿路揮手，Leon今天的心情非常好，又知道歌迷在大雨下無法看清他，竟然將車窗打開了一點，和歌迷揮手。有些歌迷在車窗側邊叫喚他，Leon也動一動手指來回應。保母車在離開停車場之前慢駛，那兒也有歌迷在等候，Leon也由車窗收取禮物，然後才離開。

28.04.00 Change for Good Press Conference


Organised by Cathay Pacific for UNICEF, they held the closing ceremony of the "Change for good" charity Champaign. The ceremony was held in Sha Tin's Prince of Wales hospital's special care unit. Tow of Stanley's crew and ten or so fans arrived there at 1.30pm. Other fans began to arrive and in total, there were around 20 there. Since there were no official invitation for the media, there was little or no report of it in the newspapers. However, some journalists did arrive (...got the info from us?)


There was heavy rain today and the ground was very slippy, the hospital officials put up some barriers for the journalists and at around 2.45pm, some sick children were brought in by the nurses with smiles on their faces! (they know that they will meet Leon!)


Leon arrived in his van at 3.20pm, and stooped at the side door. In order to catch a glimpse of Leon, fans walked very near and Stanley asked them not to walk too near. Only after everyone left some room and spaces, then Leon got off the van. Leon was wearing a red tee shirt with UNICEF (English and Chinese) on the back, with jeans. When he got off the van, he didn!|t wear any sunglasses and there were a red glow on his face, so healthy!! Leon had only need to walk two steps before he walked inside.


When Leon arrived, the ceremony immediately began while Leon sat in the second seat of the first row (with Dr. Fung on his right). First it was UNICEF's Dr. Wong began his speech, followed by UNICEF's female representative, then Cathay Pacific rep and finally one other specialised doctor made their speech. Finally, at 3.40pm, Leon spoke. While Leon stood infront of the microphone, his right hand was holding the sunglasses. After his speech, Leon posed for photographs with the guests.


When the ceremony finished, regardless of the rain, fans still stood near the van (but still remained some distance). At 3.52pm, with heave security, Leon walked out of the side door. Some fans couldn!|t resist but to walk nearer to Leon. As Leon was about to ascend on to the van, two fans walked towards him and one of them called Leon 3 times! Leon looked back and saw a letter in her hand. Stanley was about to intervene, but Leon, under the umbrella, accepted those letters. Thus, Stanley just stood there. Other fan said to Leon "One of them is HK Standard film review" Leon smiled when he heard this. After Leon ascended on to the van, some journalists followed him in order to do an interview. Since the rain was very heavy, fans outside can only see Leon's shadow.


The interview finished at 4.05pm, and fans waved to him. Leon was in an extremely good mood and since he knew that fans couldn!|t see him clearly because of the rain, he rolled down the window a little to wave to the fans. Some fans called him from the side and Leon moved his finger in response. The van slowly drove forward as their were some fans waiting at the exit of the car park, and Leon accepted some gifts and letters before he left.

2000年4月18日  一見鍾情首影禮

Maggie張曼玉和Leon合作的電影「一見鍾情」在萬眾期待之下終於在今晚進行首影禮，由於先前曾傳出Maggie和Leon不和、又在15/4日Maggie對此片宣傳重點的不滿，所以今晚張曼玉是否到場、對Leon的態度如何，也是傳媒的重點。首影禮在金鐘UA戲院舉行，Star East包了一、四院給各界嘉賓並附設8:45pm開始的酒會，Stareastnet.com送出給網友的電影票是三院的，放映時間是9:30pm。
無論有票沒票，歌迷都極早到場，希望佔個好位置可以清楚看見Leon，人數已多得不可勝數，不過記者群也不怠慢，早已雲集在酒會場地內等候各位巨星。出品人王晶、StarEast的阿叻、黃杏秀、周嘉玲......等等約在9:00pm分別到達，接著是譚校長Alan，然後是成龍大哥的靚車停在戲院前面的車路上，成龍大哥下車後跳欄入行人路，才能走進會場。
約在9:20pm，Stanley與一大群Secure圍護著Maggie到場，一進入會場，立刻受到記者包圍，鎂光閃個不停。當Maggie拍完照後，歌迷、記者及所有在場人仕就知道Leon即將出現........(Leon應該早已到達太古廣場等候安排進場)記者們都非常緊張的向街外猛望。9:25pm，保母車直駛至大路遠處讓Leon下車，由Stanley及多名Secure保護，不過外層卻已被蜂湧的歌迷團團圍住。Leon身穿淡卡其西裝、橙灰條子襯衫，架著太陽鏡，被人群迫得抖不過氣，子泉及B仔則在Leon之後，亦是舉步為艱.....只是行了幾步，圍住Leon的secure已無法保持與Leon之間的空間，變成齊齊「力壓」Leon！本來幾十秒的路，行了幾分鐘，Leon才能踏上紅地氈，直入會場......此刻，另一關又要過了，大批攝影記者早已站在門內梯級上舉機拍照，更有心急的什至衝下，意圖走到玻璃門外拍攝，可是看到那「一團大混戰」人群，又立刻轉返。
Leon踏進玻璃門後，大部份沒有酒會邀請卡的歌迷已被卡住，Leon瀟洒的步上梯楷時，仍可與場內歌迷打個招呼，然後又被場內記者群及不少已進場的歌迷圍繞，本來Leon應該一如其他明星般走到宣傳板上簽名留念及拍照，可是宣傳人員一看情況，機警的大叫: 「Leon，直接上台啦！」Leon又被擁著上了舞台。那個舞台極狹窄，相信只有三尺高、十尺闊，台邊圍滿了歌迷和記者。
Leon安全的步上舞台會合其他演員後，王晶立刻上台致送花束給兩位主角，當然少不了拍照啦，Leon和Maggie談笑什歡，這時Leon已脫下墨鏡，其後司儀叻哥更邀請StarEast其他董事Alan及成龍上台，一齊來個大合照，Leon本來正想戴回墨鏡，知道大哥們要上台，正伸高的手又再放下了。Alan和成龍上台後立刻和Leon握手，成龍更和Leon咬耳仔說了幾句。合照之後，叻哥在咪高鋒中告訴記者在首映後轉到Star East才安排傳媒採訪。這時各位巨星就陸續進入一號影院準備看戲。
Leon走在最後，他一下台又被歌迷圍住，好不容易才在secure保護下步至影院入口前面，Leon卻忽然停下說 : 「唔入住！」轉身走了幾步.....原來要進洗手間！歌迷只好又在通道上等候。Leon很快就出來，步進戲院，坐到大概N行之中，他的右邊是王晶、左邊是Maggie。Leon看戲時可能想避免歌迷的目光，所以坐得很低，Maggie也是。
整部片非常輕鬆感人，所以戲院內充滿笑聲。當影片放完，正要上字幕時，坐在Leon前兩排路邊的成龍大哥立刻拍手站起，在場觀眾也跟著站起了，怎料原來出字幕時附有拍攝NG片段，非常吸引，觀眾又只好再坐下觀看，直至完全沒有畫面為止。放映完畢，立刻有人向王晶及劉偉強祝賀，Leon和Maggie也一同在secure保護下走回戲院大堂。這時在幾個映院內的歌迷影迷也相繼離開戲院，有些在外等候Leon，有些則立刻趕往Star East Disco。
Leon的保母車停在原本Leon到場時下車的地方 (巴士站旁)，歌迷順理成章守候在側。Leon和Maggie在11:35pm一同步出，Maggie這時身上加穿了一件藍色毛毛領的外套，臉上滿是笑意，走在Maggie後面的Leon也是神情愉快，歌迷一見他出現，又圍上前，不過這次自動保持適當距離，這時只聽到旁邊的陳善之大聲說: 「唔好迫到Maggie呀！」歌迷自然留下極大空間讓Maggie和Leon可以輕鬆的步向保母車。原來Leon接載Maggie一同到Star East，Leon先讓Maggie上車，坐到他慣用的座位上，然後Leon才上車，直驅Star East。歌迷則由行人路飛奔。
當大部份歌迷抵達Star East正門之後，等了十多分鐘，才見保母車駛來，不過並沒有在正門停車，而是停在停車場門外，讓Leon和Maggie雙雙下車，然後步進那坐大廈。圍在保母車前的歌迷則驚喜可以近距離、清楚地看到Leon，Leon下車後立刻向歌迷做手勢，叫他們不要走近，自己則陪著Maggie一同步入停車場，經側門進入美國銀行中心內的Star East，有些歌迷立刻由正門進入大廈，仍可趕及和Leon打個照面，看著他很有型有款的走入StarEast Disco。
Leon和Maggie進入StarEast後，先到卡拉OK一號房接受阿叻的訪問......(請看stareastnet.com)。同時間歌迷則進入disco範圍，大會安排一些現場人仕玩遊戲送禮物，並先後請「一見鍾情」台前幕後人員上台。Party最高潮當然是介紹Leon和Maggie上台啦，所有記者立刻湧到台邊大影特影，Leon和Maggie都戴上了墨鏡，非常有默契。本來Maggie並沒有預算在台上發言，不過可能阿叻鑑於日前各大傳媒發出對「一見鍾情」不利的謠言，所以拿著咪高鋒問Maggie : 「o拿，你終於睇到好戲啦，你今晚係第一次睇到成部戲o者，你覺得部戲好唔好睇丫？」Maggie笑著說:「好！」阿叻又說 :「咁就得喇，你講下覺得點喇！」Maggie大致上說拍過的戲都有感情，但是觀眾喜不喜歡就要由他們來決定。接著是大會推出大旦糕，祝賀新片票房日日No.1，切了旦糕、開了香檳後，整個不足十分鐘的儀式也結束了。Leon和Maggie反回「後台」， 記者則安排內進做訪問，不過後來記者們在12:45am離開時頗有微言，似乎是安排上有問題。Leon和Maggie則在1:00pm由側門離開。
(網主 : Leon和Maggie後來去了酒吧，傳媒編說兩人不和的謠言又不攻自破！)

18.04.00 Sausalito gala premiere


After much expectation and anticipation, the new film co- starring Leon and Maggie Cheung "Sausalito" held its premiere tonight. Because there were rumours about Leon and Maggie not getting along, Maggie unhappy about the promotion of the film, and whether Maggie will turn up at all, all were the media's main concern tonight. The premiere was held at UA Queensway, Star East organised theatre one and three for the guests and there were a little party at 8.45pm. Those tickets that were given away to fans were in theatre three, and the film began at 9.30pm.


With or without ticket, fans came very early hoping to get a good spot to see Leon. There are so many people there but the media presence was large also, with them all ready waiting for the stars to come. Wong Jing, Star East reps, and Amy Cheung was there also. All began to arrive at around 9.00pm, then Alan Tam followed, and last but not least, Jackie Chan. He parked his car on the road just outside the cinema and walked in himself.


At 9.20pm, Stanley and the security accompanies Maggie into the cinema and as soon as she walked in, she was surrounded by the media. When they finished taking photographs of her, fans and media knows that Leon was due to arrive at any moment now... (Leon should be just outside Pacific Place, waiting for the signal to come in) and the journalists began frantically looking outside. At 9.25pm, the van dropped Leon off at the side of the road, and being accompanied by Stanley and Co. Leon walked slowly in. However, he was soon surrounded by the large amount of fans there. Leon was wearing a dark beige suit, orange-grey shirt and was wearing sunglasses. He was squashed by the large crowd, with Chi Chuen and Ah Bee behind him, they found moving forward nearly an impossible mission! When the secure can no longer maintain any spaces for Leon, everyone was literally on top of each other! What usually took a couple of seconds to walk, now nearly took couple of minutes! Finally Leon got on to the red carpet and walked inside. After passing the fans, now Leon has to face the large crowd of the media. They were all running towards Leon and want to take photos! Some even went outside the glass door to get a better position and some retreated.


When Leon was inside, those fans without invitation were stopped outside and as Leon was walking up the stairs, he greeted those fans that were inside. Soon, he was surrounded again by fans and the media. Originally, Leon were to signed his autograph on the promotion poster like all the other stars but since of the crowd, a staff shouted to Leon" Leon, go straight on to the stage!". Thus, Leon was escorted on to the narrow stage, which were only 3 feet high, 10 feet wide. Fans and the media surrounded the sides of the stage.


When Leon met up with the other actresses of the film, Wong Jing immediately handed two bunches of flowers to the two main leads. Leon and Maggie were happily chatting and by this time, Leon had removed his glasses. Then, the MC, Chan Pak Cheung invited Star East officials including Alan Tam and Jacky Chan onto the stage to take the grand photo. Leon wanted to put back on his glasses but when he saw Jacky coming on to the stage, he put his hand down again. Jacky spoke some words to Leon and after the photo, the media were told that they can do the interview afterwards in Star East. Every one went inside to see the film.


Leon was at last to go inside, and although he was surrounded by fans, just before he went into the theatre, he popped into the WC first! Fans waited for him outside, not long, Leon came out again and was seated in around the N row. On his right was Wong Jing with Maggie on his left. Maybe Leon wanted to avoid the eyes of the fans during the film, thus he sat quite low, so was Maggie.


The whole film was very sweet and moving, and there were a lot of laughter inside. When the film finished, Jacky Chan, who sat two rows infront of Leon, stood up and give a round of applause and the audience followed suit. However, there were some NG clips at the end of the film which were very tempting and every sat down again and remained seated until the screen was blank.


Originally, Leon's van were to stop near the bus, thus the fans were waiting there for him. AT 11.35pm, Leon and Maggie both stepped out. Maggie wore an extra blue cardigan, with a smile on her face. Leon was behind her with a very healthy look. When fans saw this, they immediately ushed towards him, but this time, they had self control and remained a distance. Joe Chan, at the side said to the fans " Please dont squash Maggie!". Thus, the fans left a big space so that Leon and Maggie, can walk casually to the van. Maggie will travel with Leon to Star East. Leon let Maggie onto the car first, and then the fans ran from the pavement.


When the majority of fans arrived at the main entrance at Star East, after 10 minutes, Leon and Maggie descended and then walked towards the building. Those fans who were near the van were surprised that they can see Leon from such a close encounter. When Leon descended, he gestured to the fans not to walk so near, and he accompanied Maggie to the car park, using the side door to enter Star East at the American Bank Building. Some fans went in through the main entrance, and was just in time to catch a glimpse of Leon, seeing him cooly walking into the disco.


Both Maggie and Leon went into the Karaoke room one to be interviewed by Ag Let... (please see Stareastnet.om), and at the same time, some fans went near the disco area. The organisers started playing some games with the audience and then the whole crew of "Sausalito" went on stage. The highlight of the evening was when Leon and Maggie were introduced on stage, and the photographers took photographs non stop. Both Leon and Maggie put on sunglasses together (such an understanding!!). Originally, Maggie werenot going to speak on stage, but since there were some rumours about her complain of the film, Ah Let asked Maggie " You finally saw the good film fully! How do you feel about the film?" Maggie smiled "Very Good!" Then he said "That's good! Please tell us how you feel!". Maggie then commented her feelings towards the film, whether like it or not is really up to the public. Then a big cake were being presented and wish that the ticket sales of the film were to be number one. After the cake and Champagne, the whole ceremony were finished by 10 minutes. Both Leon and Maggie went back stage, and were arranged to be interviewed by the media. But there were some disatisfaction towards the arrangement and some journalists left unhappy. Leon and Maggie both left at 1.00am at the side door.


(webmaster: Leon and Maggie both went to the pub afterwards, thus the rumours that they were not friends were all untrue.

2000年4月15日  一見鍾情主題曲MTV首播

Star East為了宣傳網頁及「一見鍾情」，封了黃埔船景街以作宣傳攤位，又撘了一個禮台、設了嘉賓區，更擺放了一個大螢幕。下午兩三時，一面有Leon fans在嘉賓區外集結佔好位置，一面有Stareastnet.com的宣傳人員不斷拉攏在場人仕加入為會員，並可以參加抽獎，獎品當中，有「一見鍾情」各式精品....( Stareast非常闊綽，網主也抽到貼紙、心形相架！哈哈！)
約5:05pm，司儀之一的梁奕倫上台向觀眾說說笑，並叫在場的人大聲高呼在等候誰，答案當然是LEON啦！這時船景街四方都已圍滿人群。記者群則在這時開始不斷在探索好位置，攝影記者本來被安排坐在第一排，可是大家都不期然走前，緊貼台邊。忽然，Stanley命Secure將一些本來預備阻欄歌迷的鐵欄，搬到台前架起，將記者隔離台前兩三尺.......欄外歌迷都在拍手叫好....傳媒也應該守秩序！


5:40pm，一群紅風衣舞蹈員上台為宣傳活動展開序幕，然後是司儀梁奕倫、河國榮上台，介紹「一見鍾情」的導演劉偉強、監製廖鳳平、演員周嘉玲及Stareast代表王晶上台，和兩位觀眾在台上玩遊戲，及後是向台下觀眾問問題，答中的是電影戲票一張.....印有「一見鍾情」宣傳照的！正當台下觀眾回答問題時，Leon的保母車徐徐駛入後台停車處，部份看到保母車的歌迷不禁大叫Leon，連王晶也忍不住走到台側望一望保母車才安心。


Leon在車上呆了一會才下車，立刻有工作人員帶來了「一見鍾情」大貼紙給Leon在胸前。這時台上司儀已向觀眾介紹Leon上台。Leon身穿白Tee、白底啡綑邊Prada外套、淺藍色最新款Levis牛仔褲 (木川拓哉賣廣告那一條)、深啡色Prada鞋 (日本Talk show穿的那一對)，架著深色太陽鏡的Leon笑著彈上台。Leon站到台上時，記者立刻湧前拍照，什至站在預備好的高梯上，所以欄外觀眾的視線大部份受阻了，不過歌迷立刻發現了穿上灰上衣、深藍運動褲的子泉，並且大叫「子泉！」子泉聽到後表現得有點尷尬，還被王凱文取笑。台上的Leon可能也聽到了，所以笑得燦爛，然後說他到LA拍廣告時，導演劉偉強曾去探班，那時天天下雨，導演就笑說，他來拍戲的時候就不會下雨了，果然拍這部「一見鍾情」時，天氣非常好。當王晶對著咪高鋒說話時，Leon伸手為他緊胸前那個宣傳貼紙。


說了一些宣傳電影的說話後，司儀就介紹觀眾一同觀看首播的「一見鍾情」MTV。看完MTV後，台前部份結束。Leon本想立刻回到後台，不過被各位熱情的攝記留住，站在佈景板前擺pose，最後更脫下太陽鏡，場外歌迷當然嘩然咯！Leon在6:10pm轉回後台，而宣傳工作人員則在台下擺放桌椅，讓記者放好咪高鋒，然後Leon再轉出台前，就在那處做即場記者會。
Leon在6:35pm做完訪問後，回到停車處，卻沒有立刻上保母車，而是和劉偉強密密傾，然後才上車，上車前很開心的和四周歌迷揮手。上車後，忽然又伏身向外，拉住Joe說了幾句、再拉住王凱文又說幾句，然後坐好了，阿B才將車慢駛，Leon更開了車內的燈，和外面歌迷揮手，保母車來到早在欄外等候的歌迷前面時，司機座位旁那個車窗打開了一半，Leon彎身向前，將手伸出向歌迷勁揮，然後才坐回，忽然車子停住，子泉上車，這時Leon雖然坐在司機位後面，但是眼睛卻望住剛好站在欄外數名歌迷及微笑，引得那幾個歌迷嘩聲四起！


車子在歌迷重重圍困下，終於駛向尖沙咀方向離開了。

15.04.00 Sausalito Promotion Day


In order to promote the new website and the new film "Sausalito", Star East held a promotion arena in Wong Po ( they even closed off one of the streets there ). For this special occasion, they build a stage, a large TV screen was put in and erected a VIP area too. At around 2-3pm, on the one hand, Leon fans were getting good positions just behind the VIP area while Stareastnet.com's PR were constantly asking people to become members! There were also a draw and "Sausalito" souvenirs were among the gifts! ( Stareast were very generous, since the webmaster also won some stickers, heart shaped photo frames! haha!)


At 5.05pm, one of the MCs there went on the stage and chatted and joked with the audience, asking them who were they waiting for? The answer of course is Leon! At this time, the whole street were packed with people. The photographers and journalists were constantly searching for good sites and they were originally designated to the first row, but since they were pushing forward, nearly towards the edge of the stage. Suddenly, Stanley ordered the security to put some barriers (who were originally for the fans) infront of the stage, thus pushing them back two to three feets. Fans who witnessed this clapped their hand for approval... the media should be in order too!


At 5.40pm, dancers in red performed on stage to open the ceremony. Then the other two MCs went on stage, and introduced the director, producer, co-starring actress of "Sausalito". Star East representative Wong Jing also went on stage and played games with the audience. He asked some questions and those who answered correctly gets a free movie ticket and "Sausalito" promotion photo. While the audience were answering questions, Leon's van just drove in backstage and those who saw this, began to scream "Leon!", even Wong Jing looked at the side to see if it were Leon!


Leon remained in the van for a while before descending, and some staff there handed Leon "Sausalito" stickers and Leon put it on his jacket. The MC then introduced Leon on stage. Leon was wearing a white tee shirt, white with brown trimmings Prada jacket, latest Levis jeans ( that were advertised by Takuya Kimura ), brown Prada shoes ( the same as he wore in the Japan talk show). He had dark glasses on and he jumped onto the stage. As soon as Leon is on stage, the photographers rushed up to him to take many pics. Some even had ladders and climbed on. Thus, they were in the way of the vans behind. However, some fans did spotted grey jacket, dark tracksuit Chi Chuen and screamed to him! Chi Chuen was a little embarrassed at first and even Alvin Wang laughed at him! Maybe Leon heard the cheers from the stage and thus smiled cheerfully. Leon then talked about his time in LA shooting the commercial, and the director was there to visit him, but it was raining, but director said that when they began filming, there will be no rain. Indeed, when they filmed "Sausalito", the weather was excellent! When Wong Jing was speaking on the microphone, Leon helped him to put the "Sausalito" sticker on his chest.


After the promotion talk of the film; the MCs introduced the first showing of the MTV's of "Sausalito" theme song "In Time to Hug". After the MTV, the showed ended. Leon wanted to go backstage, but the photographers asked Leon to pose some photos. Leon then took off his sunglasses and the fans immediately screamed! At 6.10pm, Leon went backstage first so that the PR there can put tables and chairs for the press conference. Leon then appeared again for the interview and at 6.35pm, Leon prepared to leave. Leon didn't immediately get into the van but instead talked to the director first and then went towards the van. While inside, he happily waved to the fans surrounding him. Inside the van, he first leaned forward to talk to Joe and Alvin, then he sat back so that Ah Bee can drive off slowly. The driver's window was winded down halfway, and Leon leaned forward and stretched his hand to wave madly to the fans before sitting back. Then the van stopped to let Chi Chuen on and although Leon were sitting in the back seat but there was eye contact between Leon and the fans outside, which caused screams from those fans!


Surrounded by fans, the van drove off slowly and went towards the TST direction!

2000年4月4日  Leon回來了！

Leon經過在美國拍電影及到日本作唱片宣傳後，終於在今晚由日本回港。
先說日本機場情況 : B仔在4:45pm到達機場，不久就看到Sony男工作人員和日本工作人員陪同Leon來到，沒戴帽只戴著淺色太陽鏡的Leon心情很好，看到來送機的歌迷時，面上掛著很多笑容，而且慢慢步行，和18個日本歌迷都握了手道別，並逐一收下她們的禮物和信件，日本歌迷都非常開心。其中一位日本歌迷告訴Leon，另一位日本歌迷已飛到香港，會在香港接機，Leon甜絲絲地說 : 「知道了！」當Leon步進禁區的剎那，兩個日本歌迷用廣東話大叫 : 「等待黎明！」，Leon聽罷回頭揮手，歌迷隨即舉起手中的banner ~~ [我時時刻刻都想念leon]。接著Leon就上機了。


香港接機情況 : 這個日子可說是歌迷和記者都期待已久的，所以今晚機場早就被兩方擠得滿滿，歌迷應該超過二百人，記者約二十多人。當Stanley、Secure和小清相繼來到機場接機大堂，都站在A閘出口，所以歌迷和記者也就緊貼他們。 當航班在10:22pm著陸後，Stanley接到訊息，就領著Secure轉向B閘 ~~ 這一下子歌迷嚇了一跳，大叫「B閘呀！」嘩一聲就立刻急急跑到B閘等候，記者當然也不會猶豫就照跟啦。


其實此時禁區內的Leon、Joe、阿B、Sev、一男一女工作人員正在等候過海關，Leon拿著淺草綠鴨咀帽在手中把玩一番，過了海關就向行李運輸帶的方向走，等候提取行李，Leon身穿黑色Jacket、露出兩寸內裡的藍色Tee的衫腳、深灰褲、橙鞋帶A字鞋，頭上沒有帽的，一面等行李一面講電話，後來還和Sev一起研究電話繩，不久後脫了黑Jacket，由阿B摺好放在行李車上，Leon身上就是一件藍色衫身白色領的短袖Tee。在拿了四大件行李後 (想是Leon和Joe的)，四個男的(Leon、Joe、阿B及男工作人員)先行推着行李離開，剩下女工作人員及Sev仍在等著。而Leon也在這時戴上手中的帽子,準備步出禁區見大家。


這邊廂歌迷卻跑得氣喘，還好Leon是在人群喘定之後才現身 : 首先在10:40pm是阿B推著行李車步出禁區，歌迷已按奈不住地大叫: 阿B！ B仔笑笑打個招呼，然後示意歌迷不要大叫，可是這刻Leon在禁區玻璃門後出現了，叫聲當然更響亮啦！Leon左面是男工作人員(穿西裝的)，右面是推著行李車的Joe，Leon一面行一面和那位男工作人員談話，直至步出玻璃門那一刻就立刻回應歌迷的叫聲，笑著揮揮手！早已圍在欄杆邊的記者不停地拍照，使機場一剎那閃亮如放煙花，這次Leon沒有在欄杆邊閃身而出，反而是向著中間出口走過去，記者就忍不住衝進了禁區欄杆內拍照，也有一些歌迷看到這個情景也衝了進去，結果Leon在Secure、記者及歌迷重重圍繞之下步出禁區 ~~ 是新機場的首次啊！


出了禁區，在Leon兩旁的歌迷就向他訴說 : 「好耐冇見你喇！好掛住你呀！」Leon笑笑口說 : 「有幾耐呀？唔係好耐o者！」歌迷 : 「嘩！足足廿四日呀！」Leon : 「唔係好耐咋！」歌迷齊齊大聲說: 「好耐呀！！」Leon笑得非常甜地點點頭。說完這好幾句話，大伙兒才「蠕動」至自動電梯前，其間Leon也有收fans送的東西，記者們在電梯前站著不斷拍照，使人群都得停下來，Leon根本無法踏上電梯，就說 : 「你地唔好迫住啦。」Stanley就叫停在前面的記者和歌迷先行上電梯，然後才護著Leon步上，後面則有另一位Secure壓陣，欄住後面的歌迷，無論前後都剩兩三級的空間。可是，當Leon至電梯中間時，電梯忽然停下了，阿佳失了平衡向後跌，後面第一排的歌迷看到阿佳跣下就大叫: 「阿佳跌呀，扶佢啦！」，還好Leon手急眼快，一手托住阿佳，他才可站定。由於電梯停了，Leon和所有人都只好拾級而上，早已到了上層的歌迷就各自佔個好位置和Leon打招呼，Leon也溫柔地回應。


由電梯轉出，記者們的照相機又來了！Leon看到這個情形，就和Stanley說了兩句話，然後Stanley勸記者先離去，到外面等候，可是記者們拍得不亦樂乎，將他的說話當耳邊風，Leon看情況不妙，就親自向記者說 : 「你地唔好迫啦，去外面先....一陣我上車同你地傾。」記者們就慢慢後退，留下空間給Leon及fans，不過仍有一位記者做出危險動作，站上鐵柱上拍照，在場警察立刻喝止。這時開始歌迷就可以更加親近Leon，也有更多人送上東西，Leon也一一收下。


出了機場大樓，Leon一看到旁邊的馬路，就大聲提歌迷 : 「小 ~ 心 ~ 過 ~ 馬 ~ 路！」(像廣播一樣)，本來Stanley已著他就在那處過馬路，不過Leon一瞥知道不是有交通燈的正確過馬路位置，就輕聲向Stanley說 : 「去o個邊過。」，所以大伙兒又陪Leon多行幾步，這時有歌迷送上一張剛由馬來西亞Life雜誌附送的VCD，正在過馬路時，也有一位歌迷送上一袋東西，Leon都欣然接受。
過了馬路，Leon向身旁歌迷逐一說bye-bye...(有眼神接觸的，Leon的眼睛好圓大啊！)，然後上了一架深藍保母車。歌迷以為Leon立刻會走，所以都走到車頭和他揮手，不過這時有記者大聲問 :「Leon，可唔可以傾幾句呀？」結果Leon叫所有文字記者上車，保母車後座上了六七人之後都爆滿了，但是仍有記者未能上車，太陽報的記者好慘的站在車門口叫: 「我冇位呀 ~~ 我上唔到呀」車上的Leon立刻叫身旁的記者坐上司機位，終於三個女記者坐到車頭，然後其他才可以繼續迫上車 (攝影記者只可以留在外面)，歌迷看到這個情形都覺得非常惹笑，有歌迷大聲說 :「嘩，而家東華籌款呀？」歌迷都大笑！


Leon在車上手舞足蹈，記者們又不時發出笑聲，可能Leon的回答非常精采吧。其間有機場人員來拍Leon的車，示意駛離，由Stanley及阿佳出面調停。約在11:00pm訪問完畢，攝影記者早已在車門外霸好位置，車門一開，文字記者閃出、攝影記者搶位拍照，一時閃燈如閃電，車內光如白晝，車外的歌迷們都可以看清Leon的俊臉。Leon合作的擺了幾個pose之後，拍照完畢，保母車就動，Leon在車上不斷向歌迷揮手離去。


(網主 : Leon今天心情非常好，在日本機場有18名歌迷送機，Leon和她們握手道別，香港歌迷在機場沿途向他說「好掛住你！」Leon聽後都笑得好甜。)

04.04.2000 Leon Returns


After spending time filming in Sf and in Tokyo promoting his new CD, finally he returns to HK today. Firstly, on the Tokyo side, Ah Bee arrived at the airport at 4.45pm, and soon Leon arrives, accompanied by a Sony official. Without his cap, Leon was only wearing his light green sunglasses and seems to be in an extremely good mood. When he saw the fans waiting for him in the airport, he was full of smiles! Since he was walking very slowly, he shook hands with the 18 Japanese fans there and saying goodbye. He also accepted gifts and letters from them. The Japanese fans were thrilled! One of the Japanese fan told Leon that another Japanese fan already flew to HK and will meet him there! Leon sweetly said "I Know!" When Leon was about to walk into customs, two Japanese fans said in Cantonese "Waiting for Dawn (Leon's name in Chinese)". Leon looked back and waved to them; and fans immediately waved their banner ~~ "We will constantly think and miss Leon!". Then Leon ascended onto his flight.


HK situation: After such a long wait, the airport were packed with both fans and the media. There were over 200 fans there and around 20 or so journalists. Since Stanley, security and Siu Ching were waiting for Leon outside gate A, thus everybody else follow suit. When the flight arrived at 10.22pm, Stanley got a message and then lead the security to gate B. The fans were very anxious and screamed "Gate B" and then walked quickly towards gate B. The journalists also followed over.


At the same time inside the customs, Leon, Joe, Sev, Ah Bee and others were waiting for the luggage. Leon was wearing a black jacket (showing around two inches of blue tee shirt inside); dark grey trousers, orange laces Acupuncture. He wasn't wearing any caps and while waiting for luggage, he was also talking on the mobile phone. Then he took off his black jacket; and Ah Bee folded it neatly and put in on the trolley. He was wearing a blue body white sleeve tee shirt. After collecting his four big suitcases, the four gents walked ahead first while the female staff and Sev remained behind still waiting. After they passed the customs, Leon was playing with his dark green cap and when he passed the immigration, he put it back on and prepared to meet the public outside!


On the other hand, the fans were running frantically racing towards the gate. Just in luck that Leon arrived after the crowd. At 10.40pm, Ah Bee pushed the luggage walking out and fans screamed "Ah Bee". he smiled and waved to the crowd. He signalled the fans to be quiet but as soon as the fans saw Leon from the glass door, there was uproar. On Leon's left hand side, there were a male staff while on Leon's right hand side, there was Joe pushing a trolley. Leon was talking to the male staff as he was walking. As soon as he walked out, he responded to the fan's scream by waving to them. The photographers on the other side of the railings were constantly taking photographs, and some fans ran towards Leon. Since Leon didn't walk out his usual route, but instead through the central, thus Leon were surrounded by security, media and fans as he walked out ~~A first in the new airport!


Passed the customs, some fans said to Leon "Long time no see, I really miss you!" Leon smiled and said "How long, not that long!" The fan said "Wa! 24 days!" Leon said "Not that long!" All the fans together said "Very Long!!!!" Leon smiled sweetly and nodded. As the big crowd moved towards the escalators, Leon was constantly receiving gifts from fans, while the photographers were constantly taking photographs. This caused a halt to the crowd. Since Leon was unable to proceed forward and he said "Please don't push la!" Stanley asked those infront to move forward while accompanying Leon. There were also security at the back keeping control of the fans, leaving two or three steps free front and back. However, when Leon was halfway up the escalators, it suddenly stooped and Ah Guy lost his balance and was about to fall. Those fans behind him said " He is falling, hold him!" But it was Leon who was smart and gave him a helping hand, Since the escalators stopped, Leon and co. walked the reminder steps. The fans that was already on the top level were waiting and greeted Leon. Leon gently replied.


The cameras began flashing again and when Leon saw this, he spoke to Stanley and thus Stanley asked if the media could just leave and wait for him outside but it was off no use. So, Leon said to them "Please don't push, go outside........ I will talk to you all in the van!" Then the media slowly retreated, leaving some space for Leon and the fans. There was one photographers who were performing some dangerous stunt by standing on the railing to take photos, and the police immediately came over to him. From here on, the fans can be more close to Leon and gave him more and more gifts, and of course Leon accepted them all.


Once they left the airport building, Leon saw the traffic on the road and said loudly to the fans " Be.. Careful.. when.. crossing.. the .. road!!" (very loud). Originally Stanley was about to cross the road, but since Leon saw that was not pedestrian crossing, Leon said softly "Cross over there!" The crowd again accompanied Leon for a couple of more paces. A fan handed Leon a complimentary VCD from a Malaysian magazine "Life" and when they were about to crossed the road, a fan gave Leon a bag of gifts and Leon accepted them all. When they crossed the road, fans began to say goodbye to Leon.... (looked Leon in the eyes, wow! Leon's eyes were so big). Leon went into a navy van and fans thought that he will sped off but instead some journalists if he can give a brief interview, so many many journalists were invited into the van. After 6 or 7 or so journalists were inside the van, it was already jammed and still some didn't get on yet. Journalists from the Sun newspaper said sadly "There is no room for me!" Thus, Leon instructed the other person to seat in the driver's seat to make room for her. Eventually everyone was satisfied with more and more journalists pouring in (the photographers can only remain outside). The fans found this situation very numerous and some even said "Wa! Is this a charity show?" All the fans burst into laughter.


Leon was very active inside the van and laughter can be heard all round, maybe because is Leon's witty remarks to their questions!!!! In the meantime, some airport officials knocked on Leon's car and kindly ask him to move on, so Stanley and Ah Guy came out and spoke to them. At around 11.00pm, the interviewed finished the photographers outside each stood in their good position and when the van door opened, journalists descended and the photographers began their work. The cameras were flashing like lightning and the van were surrounded by white light. The fans standing outside can clearly see Leon's expression. After a few poses by Leon, the van began to move while Leon was still waving to the fans.


(webmaster: Leon was in a very good mood today and there was 18 fans in Japan to see his departure. Leon shaked hands with then and when Leon heard that the HK fans said they missed him, he smiled very sweetly)
