He remembers those days: "At that time, an album went for about NT $ 5. As students, we didn't have a lot of money so we would go to the cheapest places in the Chunghua Market, especially one called Hsin-hsin Records. All the students knew about one female employee there who was really cool and good-looking. In the early days you could listen to records before you bought them.
