English Singing Girl

Chen Qiuying, a Chaoshan girl, has been training in English singing and dancing since she was a child, but she had to hide her dream because of traditional "taboos". Her sister, who suffered from polio, encouraged her to participate in the competition on the grounds that she could earn bonuses to treat her illness. From then on, the pair of Yingge mallets that had been used for ten years began to shine. She strives to be perfect and precise in every movement, but she was questioned because of her gender in the ancestral hall selection competition. She created a simple fusion "phoenix dance formation", but was ridiculed as "nondescript". It wasn't until her sister committed suicide by jumping into the sea under oppression, and Chen Qiuying danced solo in the heavy rain, that she understood the true meaning of Ying's singing and dancing fighting spirit. "The real fighting spirit is the person trapped in the old shell, holding up another heart and rushing towards freedom."
