Charlene Choi's new song radio charting called into question

Charlene Choi's recent song "Year After Year 年年" has been receiving popular favorable results, reaching first place as the champion song on Hong Kong's three stations 903 Chik Chak Radio Station, Metro Radio Station and TVB JSG Music Charts. It is only RTHK Music Charts that it has only reached third place (updated to second place), making it unavoidable to escape from the rumor concerning EEG and RTHK from the beginning of the year. Several days ago, netizens left messages online criticizing RTHK radio station's broadcasting methods. EEG Chairman CEO Ng Yu said: "First inquiries will be made, it is known that Ah Sa's song has entered the music chart. (How is EEG's relationship with RTHK?) Still alright, it does not matter, the song has entered the music chart."

RTHK boss Feng Wei Tang responded: "The way each station chooses and evaluates songs are different. The time and broadcasting play statistical index for each song is considered an issue. This song of Ah Sa's, making it into the top three, will automatically be a candidate for the Top 10 Songs." He stressed that the relationship with EEG is "not bad": "All along have invited EEG singers to hold interviews as promotions."
