Yang Ming was flipping through newspapers and checking stock information.
"Master, did you really let Teresa Teng sing for Madam Yang?" Ah Zhu asked.
"You'll do what you say."
"That's great, I can get Teresa Teng's autographed photo then."
Teng Lijun has many fans in Southeast Asia, such as Singapore, Siam, Yinni, Philippines, etc., especially the Chinese in Southeast Asia like Teresa Teng's songs.
Ah Zhu is from Southeast Asia, not only she likes it, but also her family likes it.
Yang Ming continued to work.
. . .
The next morning.
The Excelsior Hotel in Causeway Bay.
Many fans of Teresa Teng came outside the hotel.
There were also reporters.
However, it was impossible to let so many people in.
They only went in batches.
Teresa Teng met these Hong Kong fans in the conference room of the Excelsior Hotel, chatted with them, or gave them autographed photos.
This way.
It took Teresa Teng a whole day.
Teresa Teng kept a sweet smile all the time.
This fan meeting in Hong Kong was very successful, making more fans in Hong Kong like her even more.
. . .
From 1967 to 1970, Teresa Teng joined Taiwan Universe Records.
From 1971 to 1973, she was already the most popular female singer in Hong Kong and one of the most popular female singers in Southeast Asia. During this period, she belonged to Taiwan Lifeng Records and Hong Kong Lefeng Records.
In November 1973, Teresa Teng signed a contract with Toyo Watanabe Agency and cooperated with Toyo Polydor Records to release records.
In 1974, Teresa Teng officially went to Japan to develop.
In 1975, Teresa Teng joined Hong Kong PolyGram Records.
Teresa Teng came to Hong Kong to hold concerts every year. Since 1974, her focus has been on Japan.
As an outsider female singer, Teresa Teng also quickly gained a foothold in the Japanese music circle and became one of the most popular female singers in Japan.
By 1978, Teresa Teng had become the most popular Chinese female singer in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, and Southeast Asia.
Basically, in addition to focusing on Japan, she would hold concerts in various places in Japan and Southeast Asia every year.
Among them, in Hong Kong, the concerts held once or twice a year attracted many people.
After Teresa Teng's fan meeting.
In the next two days, she will hold a closed rehearsal at the Lee Theatre.
Two days later.
September 22, 1978.
In the morning.
The 1978 Teresa Teng concert will be officially held at the Lee Theatre.
Lee Theatre, Hong Kong.
The Lee Theatre was completed and opened in 1925 and is located at 99 Percival Street, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong, near Happy Valley.
The Lee Theatre was designed by a French engineer and was based on the French and Italian opera houses in the late 19th century. It incorporates some oriental features into the Western style, and the interior is supplemented with Chinese decorations.
The building is made of marble, with a small tower on top of the gate, canopies on the main gate and the sides, a round arch on top, and nine golden dragons decorated with gold foil on the painting. There is a carving of a phoenix facing the sun on the top of the stage, and a carving of two dragons fighting for a pearl on the lower level.
The stage can rotate 360 degrees and automatically change the scenery. It was the only theater in Hong Kong with this equipment at that time.
Lee Theatre was a high-end Western-style theater at that time, and it was the first to employ female ushers.
In the late 1960s, it was managed by Minle Co., Ltd., with manager Dong Zijun and manager Liang Shanxun, and there were 1,276 seats inside.
In the early 1970s, Lee Theatre was renovated.
In 1973, the first Miss Hong Kong finals were held at Lee Theatre. Since then, the Miss Hong Kong finals have been held here every year until the late 1980s.
The 1976 Miss Universe pageant was also held at Lee Theatre.
In March 1991, Hysan Development, a subsidiary of the Lee family, purchased the land of Lee Theatre from the Lee family for HK$450 million.
In July 1991, Lee Theatre ceased operations.
It closed on August 18, 1991, and was later demolished to build Lee Theatre Plaza and used for other purposes.
Lee Theatre is actually not very big.
Compared with the Hong Kong Coliseum, which can accommodate more than 12,000 people later, Lee Theatre can only accommodate more than 1,000 spectators.
This means.
Tickets for Teresa Teng's concert at Lee Theatre are very rare.
There are now more than 4 million people in Hong Kong, and fans from other places go to Hong Kong to watch concerts, so that tickets for Teresa Teng's concert at Lee Theatre have just been released.
Concert tickets are expensive and sold out quickly.
All the tickets for the three-day and five-show concert were sold out.
Some of them were taken by scalpers.
Scalpers then resold them to other fans at high prices.
For high-priced concerts, Teresa Teng will not disappoint those audiences.
After two days of rehearsal, she has made sufficient preparations.
At this time.
In the audience seats of Lee Theatre.
Among them, people from the Lee family, TVB Chairman Lee Hsiao-hsi and his wife, TVB Executive General Manager Shaw Yi-fu, and people from all walks of life in Hong Kong, basically all came.
These people occupied hundreds of seats, and the rest were basically wealthy fans and audiences.
In addition, there were also TVB staff who began to broadcast the upcoming Teresa Teng concert live.
It started with Teresa Teng's sweet Mandarin voice with a Minnan feel at the concert.
From the first song.
It immediately attracted the audience present.
At this time, there were quite a few Hong Kong audiences sitting in front of TVB Jade Channel to watch.
Including Li Yufang, Ah Zhu, Zhong Chuhong, and even some maids from the Repulse Bay Mid-Levels Villa.
Although Yang Ming did not let his mother go to the Lee Theatre to watch.
Now Li Yufang found that watching Teresa Teng's concert live on TV was actually quite good.
. . .
Starting in the morning and lasting until the afternoon.
Teresa Teng's first concert at the Lee Theatre ended.
Tonight will be Teresa Teng's second concert.
It has to be said that three days and five concerts are still very tight.
September 22, 1978, one during the day and one at night.
September 23, 1978, one during the day and one at night.
September 24, 1978, one during the day.
A total of three days and five concerts.
In other words, in the future, many singers will not be able to hold such a tight concert.
But Teresa Teng did it.
When Yang Ming came back from the Federal Building Empire Group by car.
When he got off the car, Ah Zhu and Zhong Chuhong ran out to greet him excitedly.
"Master, today, Madam Yang, Chu Hong and I watched Teresa Teng's concert on TV."
"Watched it for a whole day?"
"Not really, it ended in the afternoon."
Even a robot can't sing for a whole day.
What's more, Teresa Teng will continue to hold her second concert at the Lee Theatre in the evening. In the afternoon, not only do people need to rest, but also the vocal cords and throat need to rest, so that they can stay in good condition.
The more Ah Zhu did that, the more she looked forward to seeing Teresa Teng.
Yang Ming just smiled.
When he had dinner with Li Yufang and Yang Jirong, Li Yufang also talked about watching the live broadcast of Teresa Teng's concert in the morning.
"Mommy, watching on TV and watching in person, the atmosphere is different."
