Quanzhou night, the stars are bright. Jacky Cheung's concert came as scheduled, but it gave fans an unexpected surprise. When the long-lost melody of "Stealing Heart" sounded, the entire scene seemed to be transported back to 1994 through a time tunnel.

From the son of a sailor to the god of singing: Jacky Cheung’s counterattack
In a corner of the bustling city of Hong Kong, in 1961, a little boy named Jacky Cheung was born.His father was a seaman and had to support a family of five with a meager income. It is easy to imagine how difficult life was.
Jacky Cheung is the second eldest child in his family. He has an older brother and a younger sister. The burden of life makes the family breathless. To make matters worse, his father was addicted to gambling, which made the already difficult family even worse.
The hardships of life have not erased Jacky Cheung's love for music. He likes to sing, and whenever he has free time, he will hum a few lines, as if music can temporarily forget the hardships of life.
On the eve of his high school graduation, he won second place in a singing competition held by his school, which made him even more convinced that he had singing talent.
However, the reality is cruel. In order to help his mother support his family, Jacky Cheung chose to work to make money after graduating from high school.
He found a job as a ticket clerk at an airline. Although his income was stable, he was getting further and further away from his music dream.
He thought that he would never be able to become a singer in this life, and his musical dream could only be buried deep in his heart.
Destiny is always full of surprises. At that time, there were many singing competitions in Hong Kong, which gave Jacky Cheung a chance to make a comeback. In 1983, he participated in the singing competition held by "Happy Tonight" with the attitude of giving it a try. Although
performed abnormally due to nervousness and was eliminated after singing only one song, this did not make him give up. The next year, with the encouragement of friends, Jacky Cheung once again signed up to participate in the "First Hong Kong 18 District Amateur Singing Competition".
This time, he was more fully prepared. Although he caught a cold during the finals, his song "The Gratitude of the Earth" still deeply touched the hearts of the judges and the audience, allowing him to win the championship without any suspense. The championship of
is of great significance to Jacky Cheung. It not only allowed him to regain his confidence in music, but also gave him hope of realizing his music dream.

This movie not only earned Jacky Cheung recognition for his acting skills, but also allowed him and Luo Meiwei to fall in love over the show and develop into lovers.
The good times are short-lived. As work became increasingly busy, cracks appeared in the relationship between Jacky Cheung and Luo Meiwei. At the same time, his music career and family also encountered an unprecedented crisis. Sales of
's new album were dismal, and his brother ran away from home after running away from home after running into huge debts due to gambling. This series of blows put Jacky Cheung into deep pain. At this moment, Luo Meiwei also chose to leave him, which was undoubtedly the biggest blow to Jacky Cheung.
In order to escape reality, Jacky Cheung began to drink to relieve his sorrows. He even got drunk and caused trouble at Anita Mui's birthday party, and his reputation fell to the bottom.
