| | Zhou joined a troupe of performers at the age of 12. Once voted one of The Ten Best Singers
in Shanghai, she was also known to be the “Golden Voice” of her time. Zhou started to act in
movies from 1935 onwards. The 1937 film “Street Angel” gave her instant fame and the
songs she sang in the film – “Wandering Singing Girl” and “Song of the Four Season” –
became extremely popular. That is why every one of the films she made subsequently was
accompanied by theme songs. In her filming career she took part in over 40 movies
including “Three Smiles”, “Romance of the West Chamber”, “Remembering the South of
Yangtze River” and “Night Lodging” which were all made in Shanghai. Besides she made a
number of films in Hong Kong like “An All-consuming Love”, “Waste Not Our Youth”,
“Song of a Songstress”, “Orioles Banished from the Flowers” and “Sorrow of the Forbidden
City”. She is also remembered for having her voice recorded in over 100 songs, the most
famous of which are “Wandering Singing Girls”, “Song of the Four Seasons”, “Shanghai
Night”, “When Will You Come Back Again” and “Flower Youth”.
