In the 1950s, Cantonese Opera was popular in Shanghai. Tang Jinlin remembered that whenever his father began to sing, the audience would look forward to his performance and applauded. Ou Yuying not only can sing the zihou (female voice) but also sing the pinghou (male voice). The love tragedy she performed with Zhuo Ruping made the opera fans marvelled.
