Liang Jizhang

Michael Leung Kai‑cheung (Chinese: Leung Kai‑cheung; born 17 August 1956) is a Hong Kong radio presenter, author, and speech coach. Known by stage names “Little Cheung Leung” and “Bro Michael,” he began at RTHK in the 1980s and has also worked in advertising and television.

Early life

Leung grew up in Causeway Bay near Lee Theatre Road, then moved to Sai Wan during secondary school after his family home was demolished. He attended Po Leung Kuk Tong Nai Kan School and Wah Yan College (Form 5, 1973), then completed Form 6 at Hong Kong Shue Yan College. Initially enrolling in English Literature at Hong Kong Baptist College, he switched to Communications in 1975 at the suggestion of cousin Leung Kin‑cheung, graduating in 1979.

Broadcast career

While still a student, Leung interned as a disc jockey at RTHK, hosting segments on “Afternoon Melodies.” After graduation he joined RTHK’s Radio 2 as production assistant on “A Walk on Victoria Peak.” He briefly worked as an assistant director at ATV, then returned to RTHK as drama producer and part‑time DJ. By the early 1980s he abandoned a record company role to host late‑night shows including “Light Talk, Soft Songs, Sleepless Nights.” He co‑hosted “Morning Happy People,” later “Three Lonely Hearts” (1990), and wrote columns for Yes! magazine.

In the 1990s he hosted weekday afternoon program “Youth Symphony” and weekend late‑night “One Night Affair.” From 1992 he led the morning show “Crazy Show Happy People” until 2008. He joined online radio Hong Kong People’s Network in 2008, reviving “Crazy Show Happy People.” At digital radio DBC in 2011 he co‑hosted “Digital Happy People,” later “Happy People,” moving to D100 in 2012 to continue “Happy People.”

Leung has also written fiction—romance, suspense, supernatural—and performed stand‑up. His essay “A Memo to Children” was featured on TVB’s “Love Forever.”

In January 2008 he left RTHK after final broadcasts of “Crazy Show Happy People” and “Play Play Sunday,” then co‑founded Hong Kong Children’s Performance Workshop and Leung Kai‑cheung Studio with his wife. He invested in education company “Play School” in 2005.

In 2021 he briefly resigned from D100 to focus on other work, then returned to host “Crazy Show Reunion” on RTHK, leaving again in June 2025 to front the network‑radio “Crazy Show Alumni.”

Family

Leung married at age 27 (later divorced), then wed Athena Chong Yin‑lam, 21 years his junior, on 31 July 1999. He has one son and one daughter.
