I think the movie song related to Shanghai that Jenny Tsing sang was "Shanghai Park", which was the theme song of the 1988 movie "Cross the Strait". There are two movies named "Flowers of Shanghai", published in 1986 and 1998 respectively. Only the theme song of the 1986 version of "Flowers of Shanghai" was sung by Jenny Yen. According to online information, the plot has nothing to do with Shanghai.
I haven’t found a website for free listening to Tennyson’s “Shanghai Park” yet. If you need it, please contact me and I’ll send it to you via email.
The following is a brief introduction to the three films:
(1), Cross-Strait (1988)

He went to Taiwan with the army in 1949, leaving behind his wife Sister Mei, who was six years older than him, and his five-year-old daughter Guihua in his hometown. More than ten years later, Zhihao married his Taiwanese wife Shuying and gave birth to his son Taisheng. After Taiwan opens the door to visiting relatives from the mainland, Zhihao will return to his hometown to visit Sister Mei and her daughter after 40 years of absence. Zhihao's trip to visit relatives was considered by Shuying as a threat to their 30-year relationship as husband and wife who had shared hardships through thick and thin. She was afraid that Zhihao would abandon their mother and son after seeing Sister Mei and Guihua. After being comforted by Zhihao and Taisheng, she agreed to go to Hong Kong with her family to meet Sister Mei, Guihua and Guihua's daughter Xiaohong who came to Hong Kong from the mainland. During the meeting, Zhihao and Sister Mei felt a sense of strangeness due to their forty years of separation and different living habits. Shuying and Guihua are both observing Zhihao's words and actions, but Taisheng and Xiaohong, a pair of young people, communicate the fastest. Although they are uncles and nieces, they are like a pair of brothers and sisters. They talk about the present, yearn for the future, and are intimate. Infinitely. Zhihao felt that he owed both parties and tried his best to satisfy Guihua's material demands. Sister Mei is open-minded and wise, soothing the scars in Zhihao's heart. At Luohu Station, the couple who had been separated for forty years reluctantly said goodbye again. Zhihao and Sister Mei recalled how sweet and how desolate the family relationship between their eldest daughter-in-law and younger husband was. This film won the Best Supporting Actress Award (Wang Lai) at the 25th Golden Horse Awards in 1988.
Theme song: "Shanghai Park"
Lyrics: Ma Zhaojun Composer: Ma Zhaojun
It was you who carried all the luggage on your back, and you came here wandering across the sea,
p>
The joys and sorrows of this life will leave scars on your face
You will take root here and weave your next life here.
No matter why you left home when you were young, , just for the dream I once had in my heart.
Whether the mountains and rivers of the motherland are still the same, and whether the elderly parents are still alive?
I think of the beautiful Shanghai in those days, and the rippling silver waves in the ten-mile foreign market.
It feels like a lifetime ago to meet again, with young children in my arms. OK.
Don’t look forward to this life, only look forward to the next life, and continue to be filial to your parents.

You are so affectionate You shake my dreams
Lingering with you, every boundless wave in the sea is on your body
Dreams come true, turning around, the waves surge and disappear into the world of mortals
Remaining water lines I only wish that he would be alive
The figure of yesterday can be with me forever and never be separated

As if the brief light like foam on the water is my life
