East Asia Music shows off its singers in a mid-December "East Asia Capital Artists Concert." East Asia recently bought Capital Artists and prepared to hold a concert to show off its singers, in order to polish their brand. Earlier, the East Asia singers filmed the poster for the concert. However, rumors are already circulating over A-Music's Leon Lai and Janice Wei being absent from the poster, and the singers position in the poster. In the poster, Andy Lau is in the center. On either side of him is Sammi Cheng, Miriam Yeung, Richie Ren, and Andy Hui. Denise Ho was behind the first row, but her head shot was located between Andy Lau and Miriam's. Bosco Wong recently joined East Asia and already was prominently featured in the center of the second row, on the same level as Ivana Wong, Wilfred Lau, at17, and Charmaine Fong.
Denies Fighting for Position
Reports indicated that Miriam called boss Peter Lam to get a good position on the poster. As a result of this, Denise Ho was situated behind Andy Lau and Miriam. Miriam responded by saying that a lot of industry insiders have said that the Hong Kong film industry was in bad financial shape, actors have high salaries but still cannot find good scripts. So the "scriptwriters" are now working in the news media, those "stories" are very colorful!
Denise Ho said that in front of her was two "big sisters" (Miriam and Sammi). She is "small" so she should be standing a bit behind. Denise also said that her co-workers joked with her that it was because she was so pretty that she got a big head shot and that already showed her "East Asia Big Sister" status.
Leon and Janice Missing from Poster
Andy Hui said that a lot of singers were from Capital Artists and its New Talent Singing Contest, Gallen Lo, Leon, and Deric Wan all took part. He and Miriam after many changes, have ended up as part of the big East Asia family. Pong Nan also has connections to Capital Artists. Pong's first job was to compose songs for Capital Artist singer 梁浩賢. Pong participated 3 times in the New Talent Singing Contest, but each time lost in the first round.
As for this East Asia concert, both Leon and Janice were both missing from the participants list. East Asia spokesperson Ms. Leung said that Leon and Janice have other work commitments and could not participate.
