The "Tribute to Lyricist Lu Guozhen Concert" was recently held at the Hong Kong Coliseum, gathering several singers including Gallen Lo, Eddie Kwan, Johnny Ip, Lee Lung Kei, Teresa Cheung, Michelle Yim, Elisa Chan, Albert Cheung, Rowena Cortes, Anita Mui, and contestants from "Singing with Enjoyment 3" Zhang Yuchen and Liu Yang. They performed classic works created by Lu Guozhen to pay tribute to the renowned lyricist.
The concert opened with Teresa Cheung singing "Meeting by Chance is Still a Fate." On stage, she shared memories of her interactions with Lu Guozhen, even stepping into the audience to shake hands with his daughter as a gesture. She mentioned that Lu Guozhen's wife was also supporting the performance backstage, choking up while expressing deep nostalgia for Lu Guozhen. Long absent from public appearances in Hong Kong, Eddie Kwan closed the show with performances of "Follow Fate" and "No Regrets in this Life," and thanked Lu Guozhen for his contributions to the music industry. The concert concluded with all the singers performing "Bright Future" together, bringing the event to a close.
Currently residing in Beijing, both Eddie Kwan and Gallen Lo returned to Hong Kong specifically for the show and will return to mainland China to continue working. Eddie Kwan revealed that the two are now neighbors living in the same community, with their daughters even having attended the same school, sharing a deep bond. Their last collaboration dates back to 23 years ago in the TVB drama "Golden Faith." During this reunion, they both expressed the desire to work together once more. Eddie Kwan also mentioned that TVB had invited him to star in a series, but scheduling conflicts prevented it from happening.
Contestants from "Singing with Enjoyment 3," Zhang Yuchen and Liu Yang, made their debut on the Coliseum stage, attracting significant attention. Zhang Yuchen expressed both anticipation and excitement for the performance and only realized after singing that he was so nervous his hands shook. Liu Yang revealed that he spent a week practicing the Cantonese song "Snow Love," and made efforts to adjust his pronunciation to avoid noticeable errors. Their performance was well received by the audience. Liu Yang expressed humility about the praise, joking that it might be because of his good performance in the Kai Tak competition that audience expectations were high.
