Negative Response from Raymond's comfort

First time attending an award ceremony as a singer, Linda Chung was nervous while sitting below the stage waiting for the announcement of the Newcomer Award. Her heartbeat jumped to 300. She expressed that although she was nervous when she sang, but she felt very happy to have won the award. Speaking of after singing, she started crying as a response, Linda explained that besides being happy and nervous, she had just returned from Malaysia, her head was hurting and did not feel well. She was asked about if Raymond Lam immediately came to comfort her? She did not provide a direct response and just said: "Everyone came to comfort me, I'm really thankful of them!" Joey came to comfort me, she told me that coming to an award ceremony as a newcomer is like that, you're very nervous." Linda also said that she cried immediately when she got the award was because she is just very happy, it was a joyful cry.

Eason Chan was off-key and forgot lyrics

Just attended the Taiwan Golden Horse Awards Ceremony, Eason Chan's face and voice was weak. When he was singing his Gold winning Song 《時代巨輪》, he constantly got off-key and forgot the lyrics. He said that last night he participated in the Taiwan Gold Horse Awards celebration and did not have time to sleep, also he had an early flight back to Hong Kong, once he landed in Hong Kong, he did not stop his "horse" and went to do more jobs, that's why he messed up. Karen Mok, who has not attended the Hong Kong Awards for a while, attended in a sexy evening dress, she expressed that she prepared all of the precautions needed so she won't expose herself accidentally. She also plans to hold a concert next year, hope that it will be able to take place in Hong Kong and get lots of tickets sold.
