Bai Yuting's original name was Bi Kunsheng. After he joined the opera troupe, he became a disciple of the actor Liang Quan, and was originally given the stage name Liangnan.
That’s right, it’s the pretty Nan from Pretty Nan…
As a side note, the nicknames of many characters in Hong Kong films actually come from older people in real life.
For example, the nickname "Xiao Hei" comes from a player of the Nanhua football team, and Long Wu actually refers to Long Yun's fifth son Long Shengxun...
At that time, the drama troupe was going to perform the play "Five Rats in Tokyo", in which the singing of the leading role, the Golden-Haired Rat, was very difficult. Not only did he have to sing but he also had to be able to fight and act brilliantly.
