  • On July 16, 1983, the "2nd New Talent Singing Awards" jointly organized by Television Broadcasts Limited and Capital Artists Entertainment Co., Ltd. was held at Lee Theatre. Lui Fong won the gold award with Cheung Ming-man's "I Am a Chinese," while Sun Ming-kwong and Tang Chi-wong won silver and bronze respectively.
  • In April 1984, Lui Fong and the Little Tigers (Wu Wai-hong, Lam Lei, Sun Ming-kwong) jointly released the compilation "Will I Forget You / Holding Back Tears to Say Goodbye," in which he sang six songs. To avoid taking the route of a national singer, Lui Fong dressed in a preppy, boyish style, deliberately avoiding Zhongshan suits to prevent becoming a replica of Cheung Ming-man.
  • In 1985, Lui Fong released his debut solo album "Lui Fong (Unspeakable Words)," produced by Michael Lai and So Hau Leung. The lead single "Unspeakable Words" was originally sung by Japanese singer Masatoshi Nakamura. After receiving a call to write lyrics for Lui Fong, Siang Hok-wai listened to it for several days before calling producer Michael Lai to confirm if this Japanese enka song was indeed chosen. The answer was a definitive yes. Siang Hok-wai listened again and finally found inspiration. Based on Lui Fong's taciturn image, he tailor-made "Unspeakable Words" for him. This song earned Siang Hok-wai the "Best Lyricist Award."
  • "Unspeakable Words" depicts a woman asking her boyfriend to forever forget their relationship. The song's mood is desolate and cold, with sorrow in the heart, coldness in the hands, and cold rain on the face, creating a scene of profound sadness. The young Lui Fong was quiet and reserved, unlike other lively and expressive teen idols. "Unspeakable Words," a tragic love song, from its title to its content, perfectly matched Lui Fong's image, and its lyrics echoed real life. Lui Fong showcased his superb singing skills, seamlessly switching between falsetto and chest voice. This song entered the Hong Kong Radio Chinese Pop Chart and reached number one, also being selected for the Top Ten Chinese Gold Songs and Top Ten Jade Solid Gold Songs, establishing Lui Fong's position in the music scene.
  • Lui Fong's songs are mostly lyrical ballads, but he also has light-hearted fast songs. The cover song "Sweet Sixteen" was originally sung by Japanese singer Ikue Sakakibara. Lam Chun-keung's lyrics successfully captured the innocent feelings of a young boy falling in love, full of youthful spirit. In the music video, Lui Fong, dressed in a white shirt school uniform, pursues a female classmate, looking adorably awkward.
  • "You Are the Breeze" was a duet by Lui Fong and Lo Ming-chu. As a member of the first generation "Happy Girls," Lo Ming-chu, not yet sixteen, starred in the comedy film "Happy Ghost" with Raymond Wong, Loletta Lee, and Sandy Lam. She also sang the interlude "New Moon Feelings" for the TVB drama "No Longer Young."
  • "You Made Me Happy" was an interlude for the TVB drama "Police Cadet '84." Lui Fong, who had always wanted to sing, did not get the chance to release an album after winning the award, so he first filmed the drama "Police Cadet '84." Although he played only a minor role in the drama, he was very likable and gained a lot of popularity.
  • With the success of "You Made Me Happy," an interlude from the TV drama "Police Cadet '84," Lui Fong's debut solo album "Lui Fong (Unspeakable Words)" was on par with Jacky Cheung's first album "Smile," which was released at the same time.
  • On March 8, 1986, Lui Fong and Jacky Cheung jointly held the "'86 Dual Stars Concert" at the Hong Kong Coliseum, with Tsui Yat-kan as the music director. The original two shows were increased to seven, all completely sold out.
  • Lui Fong has always been active in the music scene as a powerful vocalist. Although he does not have an outstanding appearance, his exceptional singing skills have long been recognized by music fans.
