It's been 3 years since I've released a new album,some say that I've given up on music others say i don't have the hunger for it anymore. Well to me music is not something that you can ditch out anytime anywhere although the Hong Kong music companies has a habbit of forcing the artist to release atleast 2-3 albums per year. I just think that one must have the time to experience ups and downs on different stages in life, In order to actually have something to imput into that album. An album is NOT something for an artist to sustain their popularity or simply just to bargain an award, For me it's history! It's a milestone to that stage and moment of your life that you want to express through music.But by defending that principle it has been a tough 3 years just arguing with my company and all that crap why i'm not releasing. The past 3 years, i went from single.....to married.....to having a son....to knowing myself alot more and these are the things i wanna share through music. Not the usual someone writes some melody and lyrics and hand it over and ok i'll release that although i have absolutly no idea why i'm attached to that topic. I've always thought of life itself is like war....everyday, every stage is about how u wanna reach a goal and then defend it. Over these past 3 years i found out that for the past 28 years in my life i have actually never done a project with my father. Maybe it's because i've been  trying to avoid that shadow of living in my father's name. Then one day i realized that he is 75 years old and doesn't matter if  i have surpassed that shadow what matter  is my father and that i should be proud of it and not hide that fact that i am his son. So i wrote a script for my MV and had a concept and invited him as a special guess apperence. The details of  the story i will tell later on but it doesn't matter how it turns out, what matters is that i or(we) had a great time during the shoot and that i know i will never regret simply because i made good memory with my father and we fought this battle TOGETHER. It tough watching a love one age and hear them say that they are expendible. But pulling this dream together? it wasn't easy. My vision was to shoot on a flight carrier and have fighter jets skim through the city and have my father as the fleet general. So in this MV, I played as a pilot and not knowing the general that i hated was my father, he kept the fact away from me just because he wanted to make me stronger and not have emotional side effects while he sends me off to missions, after the first mission where he triggered another jet to challenge me in mid air without me knowing i hated him even more.Then he found out that i had health problems so he pulled me off the 2nd mission and i got pissed not knowing there was a reason. I had a surgery while i was concious and it went well. so he put me back onto the 2nd mission whitch was to have a new prototype jet break the atmosphere and hit outer space. Ofcourse i sucseeded but i didn't know that my return engine was malfunctioned and fell off during the sonic boom. I finally found out that he was my father after i had complete the last mission but was not able to head home....so the only and the last word that i had ever said to him was calling him Dad through the monitors in the control room. That's the summary but ofcoarse there will be much more in it. Enough said about what i want! How on earth am i gonna do such a big budget music video while the whole word having financial problems and debts..The mimimum cost  for this viedo was in the millions and i thought. here we go again! The aiming too high habbit has kicked in AGAIN. But i defended it, caause i wanted to give it all since this might just be the last and only project i can do with my dad, i talked to alot and i mean ALOT of sponsers and worked on  computer graphics for awhile..i think i made it. The post production is still in progress but i think it should make my dad proud. Just the smile i saw on his face when i lead him into my studio and said "you've taken me into alot of your sets. now it's my turn. take a look at mine!" I saw  releif....I saw an old man feeling that he didn't waste his time on a fool,well? for now..18350 frames of computer graphics needs to be done and i have a dead line to meet. So...every second right now i am still scared of not knowing  how the outcome would be. But as i said I defended my dream, and will do for the rest of my life cause that is me!!!!

捍卫梦想！

星期六， 2009年3月28日下午1时52分

时隔三年我发行了新专辑，有人说我放弃了音乐，也有人说我不再对音乐抱有渴望。然而对于我来说，音乐并不是可以随时随地敷衍的事，虽然香港的音乐公司有强迫歌手每年必须发行2-3张唱片的习惯。我认为一个人需要花点时间体验不同阶段的人生起伏，才能让一张专辑言之有物。唱片不是艺人用来维持知名度或单单为获奖而制作出来的。对我而言，它是历史! 它是你想通过音乐表达人生不同时期的情感的里程碑。但是为了捍卫这条原则，我经历了艰苦的三年，同公司以及那些为什么不发行专辑的所有流言辩驳。过去的三年，我从单身.....到结婚.....到有了儿子....到更深刻了解自己。所有这些正是我想通过音乐来分享的。并不是象通常那样，一些人写好了旋律和歌词拿过来，然后我就发行新专辑，即使我并不了解为什么要唱那些主题。我一直认为生活本身就像场战争....每一天、每个阶段你都想要达成一个目标并且捍卫它。过去三年，我赫然发现，在生命的过往28年中，我从没和父亲合作过，或许是因为我一直想要摆脱活在父亲的影子下。有一天，我意识到他已经75岁高龄，我是否成功摆脱他的影子已经无关紧要，重要的是他是我父亲，我应该以他为傲，而不是刻意回避我是他儿子的这个事实。于是我为我的 MV 写了一个脚本，邀请他作为特别嘉宾出现。故事的内容稍后我会透露，但结果如何并不重要，重要的是我(或我们)在拍摄时非常开心，我知道我永远不会为此后悔，因为我和父亲拥有了美好回忆，我们在一起并肩作战。看着你爱的人老去，听他们说自己韶华不再真是令人难受。一起实现这个梦想? 绝非易事。我的想像是拍摄一次空中运输，让战斗机掠过城市上空，我父亲担任飞行总指挥。所以在这支 MV 中，我扮演一名飞行员，并不知道让我怀恨在心的总指挥就是我父亲，他对我隐瞒这个事实是想让我更加坚强，执行任务时候不受任何感情因素的干扰。第一次任务时他指派另一架战斗机在空中向我挑战，并不知道我为此更加恨他。接着他发现我身体出了问题，把我从第二次任务撤下来，我因为不知道原因而震怒。后来我做了手术，很顺利。他把我派回来执行第二次任务，驾驶一架新型喷气机冲破大气层飞到外太空。当然我成功执行了任务，但在返程时引擎发生故障，在音速飞行中坠落。我成功完成了最后一次任务，终于得知他是我父亲，但我却无法回家....通过控制室的对讲机，我对他说的唯一也是最后一句话是叫他一声爸爸。这是剧情概要，当然还有更多细节。足够表达我的想法! 在全世界都在经历金融危机和债务困扰时，我却要拍如此大成本的 MV，到底为什么.. 这支 MV 的最低预算也在几百万，我想，又回到这个话题！胸怀大志的习惯再次出现。但我坚决捍卫它，因为这可能是我跟父亲的最后一次合作，我想为此全力付出。我跟很多人谈，我的意思是很多赞助商，还在电脑前制图了好一阵...我想我做到了。后期制作还在进行中，但我认为它能让我父亲感到骄傲。因为当我带他到我的工作室，对他说"你带我进入许多你的场景，现在轮到我了，看看我的成果!"时，从他脸上的笑容，我看到了宽慰....我看到一个老人感觉到他并没有在一个傻瓜身上浪费时间，对吗? 现在...18350 帧电脑图像需要修正，我要在最后期限前完成。所以...现在的每一秒钟我仍在忐忑，不知道最终出来的效果如何。但是正如我所说，我捍卫了自己的梦想，在今后的人生中我还会如此，因为这就是我!!!!
