Nicholas Tse: I hope this will be my last marriage


Nicholas Tse turned into a handsome pilot.



Xie Xian donned a white navy uniform as "captain".


  Yesterday afternoon, the sun was blazing, and when people couldn’t wait to hide in the air-conditioned rooms, the deck of the Shenzhen Minsk aircraft carrier was full of people and lively. It turned out that the press conference of Nicholas Tse’s 2009 Mandarin album "The Last" was held here. After the news broke, many fans came from afar, paid 100 yuan for tickets and risked being roasted into "human dry" to go crazy and chase stars. From the concept of the new album to the setting of the day’s link, Emperor Entertainment has put a lot of effort into it.

  Q: Why is there a press conference on the aircraft carrier?


  Answer: Every moment in the entertainment industry is like a war.


  In March, a set of styling photos taken by Nicholas Tse for his latest album "The Last" was revealed, and the new image of the pilot was imposing. Just after 3pm yesterday, a helicopter appeared above the event, and the screams of music fans were louder than the "boom". After circling for a few times, the helicopter finally landed on the deck. Surrounded by 12 black-clad bodyguards, Tse, who was fully armed with a camouflage pilot, stepped out of the cabin with a helmet, causing a "commotion" in the crowd. Although this look is quite stylish, it is a pity that compared with the 12 black-clad bodyguards, Tse, who has shaved his head for the film "October Siege", looks quite thin.


  In the interview, Nicholas Tse slightly pointed out that he chose to hold a press conference on the aircraft carrier that day: "Every moment in the entertainment industry is a battle, it is like a war. From when I first entered the music industry, to when I got married and became a father, every moment is like a war. I don’t know if I will lose or win, but I have to have the courage to fight like a real soldier. This is my principle of life."


  Why did you cooperate with your father?


  Answer: I hope he feels that he has not given birth to the wrong child.


  Yesterday, in addition to Nicholas Tse’s transformation into a handsome pilot, even the "fourth brother" Xie Xian also donned a white navy uniform and dressed as a "captain" to help his son release his first album in three years.


  As for releasing an album only three years ago, Nicholas Tse revealed that he is not releasing albums based on popularity or for the sake of release, but only if he wants to say and sing. As for the rare father and son to share the stage, Nicholas Tse said with emotion: "In 28 years, our father and son have never really cooperated. It is rare that my father is still so healthy. I hope he will feel that he did not give birth to the wrong child when he sees today." Nicholas Tse revealed that the father and son have just finished filming a MV, skewering the album’s title songs "Terminal" and "TONIGHT", which will premiere in Hong Kong on the 13th.


  When asked how many points he would give for his son’s new work, Xie Xian cleverly said that the points he gave did not count, depending on how many points everyone gave, but his last wish in this life may be to shoot a MV with his son, "I’m old, I’m afraid I won’t have the opportunity to cooperate if I don’t shoot."


  Q: The album is called "The Last". Is it the last one?


  A. Not necessarily. "Finally" has many meanings.


  Asked what the special meaning of the album’s title was, Nicholas Tse replied: "’Last’ has many meanings, not necessarily my last album. It’s like my dad and I are working together for the first time, maybe the last time; it’s like I’m getting married for the first time, and I hope it’s the last time; I hope that in the eyes of all fans, the’last ‘Nicholas Tse is still the same Nicholas Tse."


  At the same time, Nicholas Tse admits that he currently likes film and television more: "The music industry now is very different from before, and I am not used to the current music industry." Nicholas Tse said that he attaches great importance to the production part of the album, but a song that was recorded only three days ago can now be recorded in three hours. "In the past, singers practiced until they met the requirements. Now, if you can’t sing high notes, the recording engineer will help you push up, and if you can’t sing the rhythm, the recording engineer will also help you push it faster. Now, the track backing of MIDI (electronic synthetic sound) has made it difficult to distinguish between real and fake. I want to use real instruments, but fans, even myself, can’t tell the difference, and I’m sorry to let the company waste money."
