Zhang Xiaoying, who sang "blackheads", interpreted the traditional serious "blackhead" singing voice through the form of opera sketches, so that the audience can enjoy the artistic performance when laughing. From her short video account, it can be seen that 22,069 netizens re-sang the accompaniment of "Chen Sanliang Steps to the Court" sung by her, and "Chen Kui is Like a Tiger" was used by 18,586 netizens.
