In 1963, in accordance with the transfer order of the Ministry of Culture, he and his wife Xie Fang were transferred to Beijing as an actress in the Opera Troupe of the China Opera and Dance Theater, during which he starred in the large-scale opera "Hongmeiling" (as the leading actor Fan Quan) and played Committee member Mao in the large-scale opera "Wei Baqun".
