During the presentation for the award of Best Male Mandarin Artist , Hong Kong actress Karen Mok could be heard announcing the winner as " Wang Lixing " , combining the Chinese names for Leehom Wang ( ) and Stanley Huang ( ) . This mistake resulted in a confusion where Wang took the stage to receive the award without realizing that Mok had made the mistake . The actual award was meant for Huang , who was a relative newcomer compared to the more popular Wang . The mistake was partially blamed on Mok 's Cantonese language background , which pronounces the two characters for " Wang " ( ) and " Huang " ( ) as " Wong " with the same tone . The second character in both artist 's names also had the same tone in Mandarin , complicating the process because the third part of the name was nearly drowned out by the audience . Wang won the award the following year at the 17th Golden Melody Awards
