Earlier before, Leon brought Janice, Jill, Chapman To, Charles Ying, and others to New York to film the music movie A Melody Looking. The night before, Leon invited the media to hold a preview of the movie and new songs from singers of his label. When Leon was asked if he's paving the way to support Janice for the top three female singers award, he quoted Einstein's theory of relativity to explain. Not nicknamed as Golden Quote King for nothing!

It is Leon's first time as a director filming a music movie with a group of AMusic apprentices and planning to release the DVD at the end of the year before the major music awards ceremonies. A sequence of making loud noises. There is a rumor that Leon is vigorously fighting the female singer awards for Janice. When asked about it, Leon immediately denied and said, "Of course not. If I'm that powerful, I will choose not to work. I still want to do other things. After the World Cup, the market has been quiet. Besides singers having promotions to market themselves, they also have to do things." Leon said there are currently no ideas of this talking about supporting singers. He said, "Be natural then have smooth results. Not about supporting or not supporting. Don't forget Einstein's theory of relativity."

Another report said Leon attended TVB's Jade Singers Celebrate Anniversary for Janice to compete for the Gold Song Award. Asked if he feels Janice has an opportunity to receive this award, he said, "I received it in the past. You think I want it or not? I feel she sings very well. In the end, receiving whatever awards is not important. Her album sales figures already proved a good response. Each station calculate points differently. I understand the rules of the entertainment circle game. I came from that era. Can't subjectively give my opinions. It won't be objective. As if I want or not, I will be happy if she does receive it. So as long her songs are legally downloaded and accepted by many, the feeling of satisfaction is bigger than receving awards. Only if she works hard and sings her songs well, the opportunity of receiving awards definitely exists."

Leon, Janice, Jill, and Chapman will create a feat. The four will release albums on the same day November 21st. Asked if he's worried about the aspect of competing against their own people, Leon calmly said, "Never felt it. Just only knowing if it works or not, you will be eliminated by people. It will forever be competitive. However it's arranged, you can't win over God's will. We're of different types. The audience pay if they like it." Leon spoke frankly that Chapman releasing an album is a kind of challenge. He said, "Regardless if Chapman selling well or not, I feel it's an honor. We can afford to lose. Nobody estimated Chapman has this standard of singing!"

Before, there was a report saying Jill's albums could not sell over 2,000. Leon clarified for her saying the album sold over 12,000. He said, "Jill has an existing value and space. People talked about her losing hair, album not selling well, and her dating. She's still standing here. It proves selecting the right music path." The two sisters faced all sorts of negative news. In the showbiz for so many years, did he give them psychological counseling? He said, "Chatting and exchanging knowledges. We're all the same type of people." Asked if Janice and Jill cried in front of him, Leon said, "They did tell me they were unhappy. It's better than hiding it and just laugh. So far, they never cried in front me, but I think they did cry behind me and never told me about it."

In the movie, Janice and Jill still looked a little chubby. Asked if he gave up an order of them losing weight, he smiled and said, "Didn't give up. A singer has nothing but only recording songs and taking pictures. If not eating enough, there's no strength to record. Telling them not to eat, they may not be able to accept it." Leon expressed it's difficult for women to control themselves than men, because he feels women are born to be stubborn (do things as they please). The more you don't let her eat, the more she'll want to eat. Does he have a time of being stubborn? He spoke frankly, "I'm a little like her (Janice). I'm stubborn on eating."
