Huang Kaiqin is a famous musical talent in the Hong Kong music scene, creative talent, songwriting, prose, novels are all good, he believes that being a singer, just like an actor filming a drama, must also invest in feelings, when singing sad songs, to interpret that melancholy emotion, only to have infectious, directly hit the heart.

Recently, in the Guangdong Satellite TV "Flowing Song" program, I saw Huang Kaiqin, who seemed to have changed somewhat, and the handsomeness of the star sword eyebrows when he was young had long disappeared. At first glance, I thought it was TV .B artist Li Yonghao.
The only constant thing about Huang Kaiqin is his singing voice, the song he sings has an unspeakable taste, the voice is low and gentle, and it can be gently touched to somewhere in the heart. After all, it is the representative of the best male bass in Hong Kong, and the singing ability is not comparable to that of ordinary singers.
The song sung by Huang Kaiqin is "Late Autumn", and because of this song, many people in the mainland only knew the existence of Hong Kong as a musical talent.
The birthplace of "Late Autumn" is in Guangdong, and in 1989, Huang Kaiqin went to jiangmen gymnasium to perform. He sat in the audience and watched the band tune.
The keyboardist is a very young lad named Xu Jianqiang, a famous music producer. When Huang Kaiqin listened to the melody he played, she felt that it had a very Chinese taste, and she liked this music in her heart.
So Huang Kaiqin walked over and chatted with Xu Jianqiang, and the two became friends. Huang Kaiqin got the copyright and changed the original song title "May You Keep Your Heart" to "Late Autumn".
Huang Kaiqin then sang the song, which immediately became popular, and the record company saw that the song was so popular, and also saw the business opportunities in the huge market in the mainland. Communicating with Huang Kaiqin, I hope to produce an album, all of which are the most popular works in the mainland, such as "Crooked Moon", "The Sound of the Waves", etc., and then adapt them into Cantonese and launch them.
The Hong Kong music scene has always had the habit of adapting songs, which has become a practice, and many familiar song originals are Japanese and Korean, just as popular.
However, Huang Kaiqin has just finished singing "Late Autumn" and does not like the same style of things, believing that all songs in the mainland are extremely Chinese and relatively single. He declined the company's intentions and preferred to do something else.
The company then gave this opportunity to Lü Fang, and in 1992, Lü Fang, who had been unknown, became a well-known singer for mainland listeners, and suddenly became popular.
When Huang Kaiqin stood on the stage of Guangdong Satellite TV again and sang "Crooked Moon", he was full of emotions, because of this refusal, he regretted it for decades.
Seeing that Huang Kaiqin had been grumpy all night about the things he had rejected when he was young and vigorous, he seemed to be more than half a hundred years old and could not let go of the mistakes he had made, but his life did not start again.

Wong Kai-ching was born in Hong Kong on November 18, 1961, to a modest family, the father of an ordinary office worker. Huang Kaiqin has loved music and reading since childhood, and he is a senior student at hong Kong Chinese University.
When I was in college, I went to Radio Television Hong Kong to work part-time as a DJ, and after graduating from university, I went to radio to do classical music.
He used to participate in singing competitions, but was not shortlisted. In 1983, he participated in the Hong Kong Love for Children Songwriting Competition and won the first place with a song "Warmth".
Huang Kaiqin's singing voice aroused the interest of Therap, the general manager asked someone to take him to the recording studio to audition, Huang Kaiqin sang a song, which was recognized by the auditioner.
After the audition, the general manager took out a contract and asked him to sign, Huang Kaiqin saw that this contract was signed for three years, immediately dissatisfied, young and vigorous, he said that he wanted to study, and the company wanted to accommodate his time.
The general manager refused Huang Kaiqin's request and arrogantly said: I will never bargain with anyone. Naturally, the contract was not signed.
Poly Gold is the cradle of superstars, is the best and most famous record company at that time, most of the famous singers, Tan Yonglin, Zhang Guorong, Faye Wong, Andy Lau, Li Ming, Xu Xiaofeng, etc. are from Poly Gold, how many newcomers dream of entering this company.
At that time, the auditionist who helped Huang Kaiqin audition was called Ou Dingyu, the most influential producer in Hong Kong and also the producer of Jacky Cheung's royal records, who single-handedly created the production of Jacky Cheung's songs and held Jacky Cheung in the position of the god of song.
In fact, looking back at the past, Huang Kaiqin rejected Poly Gold because of her studies, and at that time, he thought it was worth it, because school was more important than everything.
Every step of life's choice is what you want most at that time, there is nothing wrong or right.

In 1986, Huang Kaiqin participated in the Asia-Pacific Golden Melody Writing Competition, and his "Re-Encounter" was the competition song. Huang Kaiqin's talent once again won the favor of PolyGram.
Huang Kaiqin successfully signed a contract and released her first album "Mooby" in 1987. This large disc is very hot and takes a double platinum. There is a song "Sad Lover", which is the most popular song and also Huang Kaiqin's famous song. He composed his own music and lyrics, and as soon as this song came out, the years and starstatter were full of affection, stunning the music scene,
This famous song gave him many opportunities to perform in different places, and this song also pioneered Huang Kaiqin's route as a singer-songwriter.
In addition to constantly releasing albums, Huang Kaiqin also published books, acted as a host, and an actor. He starred with Andy Lau Zhong Chuhong in the movie "Lover Comrade", which is also popular.
In 1990, Huang Kaiqin released the album "Souvenir for You", which won double platinum sales.

At that time, it was a popular idol singer, and the record company also hoped that Huang Kaiqin would be positioned as a DJ idol singer. But he was very much against it, because he felt that if he didn't write songs and fill in the lyrics, it would be difficult to establish his own style.
The company asked him to cover other people's songs, but Huang Kaiqin refused, wanting to sing his own songs. So this song of "If This Is Love" was sung to Dawn, and the theme song of the TV series "Man on the Edge" that made Dawn become the prince charming in the hearts of thousands of young girls, and Dawn began to become popular.
Mei Yanfang was invited to be Huang Kaiqin's agent at that time, and Chen Jiaying also wanted to be his agent. But Huang Kaiqin refused. He felt that he was more serious. And there are contracts, even if there is a good broker, he will not be impressed in front of him.
Huang Kaiqin's persistence and stubbornness have always been incompatible with the company's business philosophy, resulting in the loss of many opportunities.
Huang Kaiqin has been fighting for her own creative opportunities, and does not hesitate to gamble with her future. His personality is too blunt, and he is proud of his talents, and he is constrained by PolyGram everywhere, so he is dissatisfactory and turns around to sign a contract with Feitu Records.
The personality has not changed, it is the same in which company to go, and Huang Kaiqin also has the unpleasant thing of stalemate.
In 1996, Huang Kaiqin constantly refused the company's arrangement, fell out with her agent, and in a fit of anger, quit the entertainment circle and left For Canada.
Many years later, Huang Kaiqin said that he was a person of the Tomb Sect, his temper was strange, and he was emotional, he would not look at people's faces, and he would not look at the situation of the company's limelight, so he had always led others to misunderstand him. Thinking that a person has too much of his own opinion will not only give people a scolding, but also make people laugh. In addition to causing unnecessary disputes, people also think that you are very annoying and dragging.
This musical road, Huang Kaiqin walked so hard, is his personality is not suitable for the entertainment industry, and personality often determines the fate of people.

I don't know how he spent 7 years in Canada, until 2003, he returned to Hong Kong. In the past few years since he left, he has been forgotten, and the Hong Kong music scene has completely changed. When Huang Kaiqin reappeared, everyone remembered him and remembered his affectionate songs, but the popularity was not there.
In recent years, Huang Kaiqin's focus has been on the mainland, in addition to concerts, variety shows, and constant interviews, and his popularity has slowly risen in the mainland.
But Huang Kaiqin seems to have been unable to get rid of the entanglement of the past, he constantly mentioned the old things, constantly lamented that he missed so many opportunities, and kept wandering on the painful edge of regret.
For fans who love Huang Kaiqin's songs, they are glad that he has insisted on and created music for many years. If he is also like a star out of the assembly line, focusing on fame and fortune all day long, you sing our debut.
How can we hear huang kaiqin's popular classic songs. From the song, I feel the poetic mood, ethereal, sad, lonely, and reveal the romance of the heart, unconsciously touching the deepest part of the inner emotion, which is the biggest charm of Huang Kaiqin.
Huang Kaiqin's songs will not be forgotten because of the passage of time, and they will not be forgotten by the times. His love of music is always touching and respectful.
