After Andy finished singing the song Man Cry Is No Crime, a girl beside (the author) commented Andy singing is much bette than before. The only King who attended was v warmly welcomed by audience & reporters.

That time Andy wore a light-colored suit, he looked fresh. In the press interview, he again created a stir. All the reporters wanted to get to the front to have close contact with him. When he heard the reporters from behind shouted that they could not take photos, he personally urged those reporters from the front to give way. Though his coopearativeness were fully appreciated, he was not immuned from pointed questions hurled at him by the reporters. A King is a King, he answered all the questions with wit & humour.

When he was asked abt his personal matter, he gave the same answer given to the press earlier: When I marry, I will definitely let everybody knows. On his upcoming concert, he was profoundly deep, not revealing the theme. He wanting to learn face-change was a steaming topic in China, when talk on this, he replied, "This question not convenient for me to answer, you better ask the other party."
