Qiu Lin (stage name: Qiuling) is from Chongqing. She graduated from the Performance Department of the Meishi Film School of Chongqing University, majoring in music performance, and is an actor in the Shanghai Light Music Troupe.
In 2002, Qiu Ling met Mr. Zhuang Nu, a leading figure in Taiwanese poetry circles who had written lyrics for many of Teresa Teng’s works. After Zhuang Nu heard Qiuling sing Teresa Teng's song, he called it "the original sound reappeared". On March 28, 2005, at the "Allure Teresa Teng Concert" in Hong Kong, Qiu Lin sang 10 Teresa Teng songs solo using "Teng's Singing Tune". The audience applauded wave after wave, and she was called "the living Teresa Teng". Teresa Teng's younger brother, Mr. Deng Changxi, was so excited that he cried several times after hearing Qiu Lin's singing that looked very similar to Teresa Teng. He said to Qiu Ling, "You must take good care of and take care of me, your brother!" Qiu Ling was able to successfully reproduce Teresa Teng's original voice. The secret of "The Sound of Heaven" is: "I will learn from Teresa Teng to be filial to my parents. No matter how famous Teresa Teng is, she is always so humble and polite. These are the virtues I learned." "Learning from Teresa Teng is not a simple superficial imitation, but learning as an art." Teresa Teng's biggest wish during her lifetime was to hold her own concert in mainland China. Unfortunately, she was unable to fulfill her wish until her death. Now this has become Qiu Ling's biggest wish. She hopes to use her singing voice to spread across the land of the motherland to comfort Teresa Teng's spirit in heaven.
At 7:30 pm on May 18, 2009, "One Billion Applause" - Teresa Teng Memorial Concert was sung gorgeously at the Poly Theater in Beijing. Qiu Ling, known as "Little Teresa Teng", sang gorgeously in a dress worn by Teresa Teng during her lifetime, and Zhuang Nu, a leading lyricist in the world of poetry, also attended in person to help out. Qiuling sang 30 Teresa Teng's classic works in one breath, including "A Thousand Words", "Small Town Story", "Sweet Honey", and "The Moon Represents My Heart". In the finale, she used high-tech means to perform a "time and space duet" with Teresa Teng, "I Only Care About You", which moved the audience even more.
Qiu Ling was known for imitating Teresa Teng when she was a student. The most proud thing about Teresa Teng in her singing career was that she received one billion applause, while Qiu Ling’s greatest wish was to sing for her idol all over the motherland. Traveling all over the country, he helped her make up for the regret of not being able to come to the mainland to watch the concert during her lifetime. This concert was hosted by Teresa Teng's former friend Lin Guangning, who played He Lili's father in "The Fairy Wife". The Shanghai Light Music Troupe served as live accompaniment. The 80-year-old lyricist Zhuang Nu also came to support her in person. .
The most special thing about this concert is that Qiu Ling put on five different dresses on stage, and these dresses were exactly what Teresa Teng wore during her lifetime. Qiuling sang 30 of Teresa Teng's classic songs in one breath, including "A Thousand Words", "Small Town Story", "Sweet Honey" and "The Moon Represents My Heart". Qiuling's soft voice made the audience feel as if Teresa Teng had reappeared in person, creating a sense of time and space intertwined.
When she sang "Small Town Story" wearing the white flower-patterned cheongsam worn by Teresa Teng when she performed in Japan, almost the entire audience sang in unison, and the scene was very spectacular. Teacher Zhuang Nu, who was sitting in the guest seat, was so excited that he burst into tears.
