Ask for an article about Ka Kui Wong

You mean the article written by Tayu Lo. This book is called Why Ka Kui Wong Died. The Japanese didn't kill Ka Kui and wanted to be on TV. Unfortunately, something happened. What I want to ask is, why did Ka Kui die in Japan instead of Hong Kong? It's very simple, because Ka Kui thinks that music has no future in Hong Kong, so she moved to Japan to develop. Ka kui and beyond have always insisted on creating their own music. It's a pity that Hong Kong music scene is a place with extreme disrespect for music! Japan is a market that highly values original music, with more than 90% of original music in the top 100. Adapting or copying Japanese songs is the most despised behavior in the music world and society. Beyond insists on originality, because they know that this is not only a matter of their own style, but also a matter of dignity. Beyond will definitely not survive, because making original music will consume at least half of the band's time and energy, while others just need to copy songs and open their mouths. Under such completely unfair competition, how can beyond survive in Hong Kong?

Some regrets, such as Xu Sanguan (Samuel Hui), are good at innovation, and there are also good composers, such as Gu Jiahui, Huang Zhixiang and Man Yee Lam. Before 1997, everyone might have to consider whether to emigrate or not, and how to communicate with the people above were very busy, so there were some regrets, especially Ka Kui, who was the only band in Hong Kong that really wanted to write original songs. A social face must have some songs that express reality. Without these songs, there would be no feeling in society. The music in this society is controlled by international records, and singers have no channel to sing such songs, so international record companies are controlling the Voice of Hong Kong and their own voice and market. Why Beyond writes his own songs and others just copy them, because it is much faster, 1 is 4, so it is difficult to make music; Therefore, Beyond went to Japan for development. Japan is a country that respects originality. Listening to the Japanese, I feel Beyond has the voice that Hong Kong people really belong to Chinese songs. I once wrote that I think it was the Hong Kong music scene that killed Ka Kui. If the Hong Kong music scene respected originality, Beyond would not go to Japan. If this lesson is not enough, I think it is a dead end. Advocating originality has been said for a long time, but it can't be solved before 1997. It seems that the original singer's concert has been done for a long time and has not changed. On the contrary, more and more songs are copied, because the five major record companies will control the market until 1997, but after 1997, the change will be fierce. The above is the content of the book.
