The Miss You Much Leslie exhibition yesterday was unveiled at the Times Square and will run until May 1 for Gor fans to reminisce about Gor Gor Leslie Cheung Kwok Wing. At the opening ceremony a Guinness World Record was set, as Gor fans' hard work of folding origami cranes yesterday with the examiner as the witness netted 1,900,119 origami cranes. The original goal was 1,956,912 for Cheung Kwok Wing's birthday on September 12 1956.
Chan Suk Fun said that over a year ago Mainland fans have already suggested folding origami cranes for a world record. Later they contacted her and applied to the Guinness World record. They wanted to fold 1,956,921 origami cranes, which had the special meaning of the September 12, 1956 birth of a superstar in Hong Kong. The event will run until May 1 and continues to accept origami cranes in order to reach the figure. The examine will examine again to confirm the new record.
The exhibition designs had Cheung Kwok Wing's music, stage and movie as themes, its primary colors were Cheung Kwok Wing's favorite red. It had a 6 meter tall Cheung Kwok Wing bust and a giant origami crane in the palm of his hand; behind it the transparent arches had almost 2 million origami cranes with Gor fan's well wishes for Gor Gor from around the world. The "arrival" of the originally veiled Cheung Kwok Wing bust was quite a surprise, as some even broke down in tears.
10 years after Cheung Kwok Wing's passing, Chan Suk Fun was crying when she remembered her late friend in an interview. She said that over these 10 years even thinking about Gor Gor was tough. From preparing this event, counting origami cranes with fans in the past few days, she still felt the hurt when she remembered Gor Gor. Earlier when they were counting origami cranes, a butterfly flew into the venue and seemed to have stopped in the crowd. Fans felt that Gor Gor was cheering them on and even she was touched.
Earlier Gor Gor's friend So Sze Wong revealed that she would record for tonight's concert. Gor Gor through a medium delivered a message to comfort his friends. Chan Suk Fun said that this was a beautiful misunderstanding. When she was thinking about the memorial concert content, she thought of the younger fans could only know him from past movie and stage performance; she wanted younger fans to understand why so many people loved Gor Gor and thus she hoped that Gor Gor's good friends would make videos to share that. So Sze Wong earlier agreed but later changed her mind, because she only wanted to say to Gor Gor how she felt and contacted a medium. The rumor led to a misunderstanding.

The exhibition included Gor Gor photo books, stage costume collections and the red high heels worn at the concert, some of which Tong Tong loaned for display; also included was a vinyl record and award exhibit. On the second floor was "Leslie's Cafe", opening a coffee shop was Gor Gor's dream. On January 22 1990 Final Encounter concert's final show, Gor Gor promised viewers that night that the ticket stub was good for a cup of coffee at his coffe shop; this exhibition fulfilled the promise, as the stub from that show would be good for a free cup of coffee. The venue also had a souvenir shop with tee shirts, Gor Gor figures, cups, posters, pins and two versions of notebooks for Gor fans. The 12 inch figure that costs HK$1,680, the HK$350 pin and the tote bag were immediately sold out.
Originally famous photography Wing Shya (Ha Wing Hong)'s limited edition Gor Gor memorial photo book was to be released as well and it included never before seen photos. Advanced sales have already begun. Earlier the publisher sued Ha Wing Hong over the photo book publishing right, the legal problem made this photo book unable to be released as planned. Chan Suk Fun said that she has not seen this photo book, currently she is waiting for Ha Wing Hong to handle the publishing right lawsuit first.
