'''Wakin Chau''' ({{zh|s=周华健|p=Zhōu Huájiàn|j=Zau1 Waa4 Gin6}}; born 22 December 1960), better known by his stage name '''Emil Chau''' during the 1980s and 1990s, is a [[Hong Kong]]-born [[Taiwanese people|Taiwanese]] singer and actor, popular throughout Taiwan, Hong Kong, [[Mainland China]], and parts of Southeast Asia ([[Singapore]], [[Malaysia]], [[Indonesia]] and [[Vietnam]]). As of 2007, he has released more than 40 albums.


==Biography==
==Early life==
Wakin Chau was born in a rice store owned by his family in [[Sai Ying Pun]], Hong Kong. Growing up as the fourth son in his seven-member family, Wakin learned to play the guitar when he was about 13 years old. In 1979, he left for [[Taipei]] to major in mathematics at [[National Taiwan University]]. During his college years, he sang and played folk songs in local coffee shops. This activity was a tradition among NTU students, and it is how Wakin learned to sing in [[Mandarin Chinese|Mandarin]], which would be key to his future as a music-maker in [[Taiwan]].
Wakin Chau was born in a rice store owned by his family at [[Sai Ying Pun]] in Hong Kong, the fourth son of seven children.<ref name=r1/> He began learning the guitar when he was about 13 years old. In 1979, he left for [[Taipei]] to major in mathematics at [[National Taiwan University]]. While at college he sang and played folk songs in local coffee shops, learning to sing in [[Mandarin Chinese|Mandarin]].<ref name=r1/>


==Music career==
Wakin had high hopes to establish a career as a recording artist, and he actively sought out contacts in the music industry. But a persistent lack of interest eventually led him to give up trying to become a performer – instead, he could sign on as an assistant producer at [[Rock Records]], where he wrote marketable pop songs for other artists.
Hoping to establish a career as a recording artist, Chau sought contacts in the music industry, but after a lack of success, eventually signed on as an assistant producer at [[Rock Records]], where he wrote pop songs for other artists. He was later encouraged by [[Chyi Yu]] to perform jingles for commercial advertisements. One of his jingles for a car commercial was heard by his boss at Rock, who recognised his voice and gave him a chance to record a [[Mandarin Chinese|Mandarin]] album, released on [[Rock Records]] in 1987.


⚫
From 1985, under the name Emil Chau, he has released more than 40 albums in [[Standard Mandarin|Mandarin]], [[Cantonese]] and English. His platinum albums, including ''You Make Me Happy and Sad'' ({{lang|zh|讓我歡喜讓我憂}}), ''The Flowery Heart'' ({{lang|zh|花·心}}), ''Music Brings Us Together'' ({{lang|zh|有弦相聚}}) and ''Emil & Friends'' ({{lang|zh|朋友}}) have won awards in Taiwan, Mainland China, Hong Kong and Singapore.{{which|date=December 2020}}{{cn|date=December 2020}} Chau reverted to using his given name Wakin in 1999.
Wakin was later encouraged by [[Chyi Yu]] to sing some jingles for commercial advertising spots. One of these tunes was for a car commercial, and it happened to catch the attention of Wakin's boss at Rock, who realised it was the voice of his own assistant producer.


Chau formed the four-member supergroup [[Superband (band)|Superband]], along with [[Jonathan Lee (record producer)|Jonathan Lee]], [[Chang Chen-yue]] and [[Lo Ta-yu]]. They disbanded and resumed their solo careers in 2010.
That moment opened the door for Wakin to record and release his first [[Mandarin Chinese|Mandarin]] album under the [[Rock Records]] label in 1987. For a man who had dreamed of performing professionally but had settled on being a record producer, this was a period of particularly good fortune that launched a succession of chart-topping records.


==Other activities==
Shortly before his music career took off, Wakin the record producer met an American girl named Constance Woods, whose father was in Taiwan as a Fulbright scholar. Seeming to have plenty in common (including birthdays only one day apart) Wakin and Constance began to date, got engaged and then on 16 November 1986, they married in Taipei. Four months later there was another ceremony with family and friends in the United States of America on 14 March 1987. They have a son named Andrew and a daughter named Anya.

Chau has also appeared in some films, and on TV and radio programs in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore and Japan. Alongside his singing career, he is a restaurateur and is active in international charitable causes, such as kidney dialysis charities in Singapore, the January 2002 "Take a Deep Breath" concert in [[Taipei]] to raise money for local health-care organisations, Beijing's 4th Grand Charity Drive for Children in 2005, and [[Jackie Chan]]'s all-star concerts in Las Vegas.

Wakin Chau (Chinese: 周华健; pinyin: Zhōu Huájiàn; Jyutping: Zau1 Waa4 Gin6; born 22 December 1960), better known by his stage name Emil Chau during the 1980s and 1990s, is a Hong Kong-born Taiwanese singer and actor, popular throughout Taiwan, Hong Kong, Mainland China, and parts of Southeast Asia (Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Vietnam). As of 2007, he has released more than 40 albums.

Early life

[edit]

Wakin Chau was born in a rice store owned by his family at Sai Ying Pun in Hong Kong, the fourth son of seven children.[1] He began learning the guitar when he was about 13 years old. In 1979, he left for Taipei to major in mathematics at National Taiwan University. While at college he sang and played folk songs in local coffee shops, learning to sing in Mandarin.[1]

Music career

[edit]

Hoping to establish a career as a recording artist, Chau sought contacts in the music industry, but after a lack of success, eventually signed on as an assistant producer at Rock Records, where he wrote pop songs for other artists. He was later encouraged by Chyi Yu to perform jingles for commercial advertisements. One of his jingles for a car commercial was heard by his boss at Rock, who recognised his voice and gave him a chance to record a Mandarin album, released on Rock Records in 1987.

From 1985, under the name Emil Chau, he has released more than 40 albums in Mandarin, Cantonese and English. His platinum albums, including You Make Me Happy and Sad (讓我歡喜讓我憂), The Flowery Heart (花·心), Music Brings Us Together (有弦相聚) and Emil & Friends (朋友) have won awards in Taiwan, Mainland China, Hong Kong and Singapore.[which?][citation needed] Chau reverted to using his given name Wakin in 1999.

Chau formed the four-member supergroup Superband, along with Jonathan Lee, Chang Chen-yue and Lo Ta-yu. They disbanded and resumed their solo careers in 2010.

Other activities

[edit]

Chau has also appeared in some films, and on TV and radio programs in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore and Japan. Alongside his singing career, he is a restaurateur and is active in international charitable causes, such as kidney dialysis charities in Singapore, the January 2002 "Take a Deep Breath" concert in Taipei to raise money for local health-care organisations, Beijing's 4th Grand Charity Drive for Children in 2005, and Jackie Chan's all-star concerts in Las Vegas.
