'Ab, Aaron, come here, I have something to tell you' In the practice room of the Wenna band, manager Liang Baitao shouted to the band's two lead singers.

In the 60s, Leung was already a well-known manager and concert performer in Hong Kong and Asia, and is now the manager of the Winner Band.

The original members of the b Chinese and included Chan Pak Cheung (vocals), Pang Kin Sun (electric guitarist), Yip Chi Keung (bass electric guitarist), Chen You (formerly known as Chan Chi To, drummer) and Chan Pak Cheung's younger brother Chan Pak Sun (electronic organist), and then Alan Tam joined, the Loosers attacked with two lead voices, Chan Pak Cheung was responsible for the wilder song renditions, and Alan Tam was responsible for the more Sven songs. With their familiarity with smash hits such as Beatles and Rollingstone, they have sung pop songs of European and American super-idols in many bars. The Loosers soon made a name for themselves, winning the first prize at the Beach Music Festival and winning the Grand Prix at the 1971 Hong Kong Youth Music Festival, beating out Hui Koon-kit to win the Grand Prix voted by the audience.

It can be said that the Loosers band was already quite popular in 1972, but the fate of this band matches its name very well, the loser, when the band was about to start, Alan Tam, one of the lead singers of the band, was going to Singapore to continue his studies at this time, and the other lead singer Chen Baixiang also went to the Middle East to do business, in the absence of two lead singers, the development of the Loosers band came to an end, the six went their separate ways, and the band also announced its disbandment.

In 1970, Leung was already the manager of the Losers, when Chan Pak-cheung, Chan Pak-sun, Pang Kin-sun, and Ah Keung shared a one-story flat on Electric Road in North Point, and Chan Yau also lived nearby. Although Alan Tam lives far away, because everyone is like-minded, he co-organized the band Loosers and participated in many singing competitions. Unfortunately, the results were not as good as they could be.

Coincidentally, Liang Botao also lived in Electric Road back then, and everyone was a neighbor. The process of Liang Botao getting to know the members of the Loosers band is also ancient. Chen Baixiang once caused a scandal back then, and he fell in love with the unsuccessful Hong Kong sister He Xiuwen. But He Xiuwen already had a boyfriend at that time, but she fell in love with Ah Lak. He Xiuwen's boyfriend was not convinced, so he talked about it to Dong Mengni, the editor-in-chief of Ming Pao Weekly at the time. Dong Mengni also reported that some band members prying the foot of the wall and winning the news of the beauty. At that time, Liang Baitao was the chief writer of the entertainment section of an English newspaper chinamail, and he was very curious about this matter. Liang Baitao had already participated in the work of record producer back then, and became popular with Chen Meiling, Chen Baixiang asked the two sides to cooperate under the knowledge of heroes and heroes.

Since 'the1stfolkalbum' was selling well and 'the2ndfolkalbum' had made Chan Meiling famous, Chan also wanted Leung to record for the band. Liang Botao hesitated for a while and was finally willing to listen to them practice in their practice room, and found that these young men were very potential, and also laid the opportunity for them to cooperate in the future, and it didn't take long for them to officially sign with the Loosers band.

At the end of 1973, Chen You, Peng Jianxin, and Ye Zhiqiang at that time had a relatively difficult life after the disbandment of the loser band, and they could only live by helping other bands as casual workers, with a meager income.

At this time, due to emotional reasons and his father's business failure, Alan Tam had to drop out of school early and return to Hong Kong. In Hong Kong, Alan Tam first worked as a salesman for cultural equipment at Jebsen & Co. Once, in the process of selling musical instruments, they reunited with a group of old friends of the loosers in the past, when the three members of the band had the idea of reorganizing the band, and they were of course surprised to see Alan Tam, so they invited him to join, and Alan Tam felt that life was boring, and of course he would not refuse this invitation.

Perhaps thinking that the name loser was unlucky, this time they named the band: Wynners, also known as Wenna. In this way, Peng Jianxin, Ye Zhiqiang, Chen You, and gold medal manager Liang Botao reorganized the band, and changed the name from loosers (losers) to wynners (victory, Chinese name Wen Na), plus Alan Tam, who had just returned to Hong Kong from Singapore, Wen Na "Four Tigers" fought again in Hong Kong.

In order to reorganize the band, Liang Botao thought that it was time for the loosers to change members, and since the two Chen Baixiang brothers were already working in the Middle East, he called Zhong Zhentao to join the Wenna band. In 1971 and 2, Liang Botao and Zhong Zhentao tried to cooperate. At that time, Chung was a member of a band Sergeant-Majors, and he also became the champion of a band competition on TVB. Liang signed a contract with Sergeant-Majors, but announced his dissolution due to disagreements among several members of the team.

After discussing with Liang Botao, Zhong Zhentao decided to join Allen's band, so the Wenner Band later joined Zhong Zhentao and Singaporean musician Andrew, and the Wenna Band also appeared in the form of a six-piece band, but at that time, because Andrewoh's residence permit could not be renewed, he had to return to Singapore as a last resort. After consulting with the members of the band, it was decided to maintain the five-piece band, and the lineup of the Five Tigers was stabilized, with Alan Tam and Chung Chun-tao (lead vocals and harpsichord), Pang Kin Sun (electric guitar), Yip Chi-keung (bass electric guitar) and Chen You (drummer) as the final band.

'Pato, what's the matter' came to Liang Botao, Zhong Zhentao immediately asked.

"Ah B will wait for you and Aaron to go to Leigh's TV station to record a show, I won't follow me today, remember to be serious, don't make anything happen to me on the TV station."

Zhong Zhentao and Alan Tam can be said to be born with the surnames of Dou Xing. Once they had a teadance performance at a seafood restaurant in a nightclub in North Point, and during the break, Chung Chun-tao and Alan Tam actually caught fish and lobsters in the fish pond.

Alan Tam on the side asked curiously, he has known Liang Botao for several years, of course he knows some about this manager, and knows that he is a very conscientious person, and he must check the quality of the program himself before he can rest assured, it is not an important matter, he will definitely be present to supervise what the band records in general.

'I'll go out and talk to you about an ad later, if this ad goes through we can definitely make a lot of money, so you'll have to go over today'

"What kind of advertisement is pato, it's worth your attention?"

Listening to Liang Botao say this, Alan Tam and Zhong Zhentao are very curious, Wen Na Band has been established for almost three years, and its popularity in Hong Kong is not small, and there is no shortage of advertisements at ordinary times, the band's manager Liang Botao attaches great importance to long-term development, for the sake of the interests of the entire band, he has always had an attitude of preferring advertising to such things, as long as it damages the image of the band, he will never accept it.

"This advertisement is very important, the advertiser is a big customer, not only the image of the product is good, but also the signing fee is a lot, if the negotiation is completed, it will also help promote your popularity."

"What kind of advertisement is PATO?" Liang Botao's words fully aroused the appetite of Alan Tam and the others.

'Aaron, do you know the Skywing pager'

"Who in Hong Kong doesn't know the Tianyi pager now" Alan Tam subconsciously replied, but as soon as he finished speaking, he finally reacted a little, paused, and looked at Liang Baitao in surprise, "Pato, no, you don't want to say that it is the Tianyi pager who is looking for us to shoot an advertisement."

"Pato, don't laugh, just say it quickly, is it or not" Zhong Zhentao saw that Liang Botao just smiled after listening to Alan Tam's words, and did not answer immediately, and couldn't help but be curious anymore and hurriedly asked.

"Hehe, yes, it's Tianyi pager, a few days ago, people from Tianyi suddenly found me, saying that they wanted to cooperate with our band to help them shoot commercials, originally I wanted to wait until today to negotiate with them and then talk to you about this matter, after all, I don't know if this thing will be successful, but don't worry, I think this matter is not far from ten, Tianyi company looks very sincere, and the conditions are very beneficial to us."

"If that's the case, it would be great, Tianyi pager is a big company, I don't know if they can give us less advertising fees," Zhong Zhentao said excitedly.

'Ah b, don't just think about money, for us to cooperate with Tianyi pager, money is not the main purpose, do you know how many people in Hong Kong now know Tianyi pager, if our band helps them shoot advertisements, then our popularity will be greatly improved, and as far as I know, Tianyi pager is entering the Southeast Asian market, in Taiwan, Macau, Singapore, Malaysia These places have a great reputation, Don't you think that our advertising for Sky Wing will further help our band to expand into these places?"

80 years ago, the price of finding celebrities to shoot advertisements was not high, not as outrageous as in later generations, and because of this, Liang Botao was not very happy with Wen Na Band to help others shoot any advertisements, but Tianyi Company is different, Tianyi has developed into a well-known large company in Hong Kong, and to make it clear, this company is already an international company, helping Tianyi to shoot advertisements, in disguise, is also to enhance the popularity of Wen Na Band, for Wen Na is more income than pay, so Liang Botao attaches great importance to this advertisement.
