The noted mainland Chinese songwriter, composer, and producer Xiao Ke states flatly that mainland recording studios are not professional enough. "Even as recently as two years ago, the process for deciding what songs to include in an album was positively primitive. People just decided at the last minute. Sometimes they would go with the singer's favorites, and sometimes it would be whatever the producer liked personally."
大陸著名詞曲作者、製作人小柯不諱言，內地做唱片專業程度不夠，「前兩年唱片的作法還是錄音前臨時各處選歌，選擇的方式要不是依照歌手的喜好，就是製作人的喜好」，看到張惠妹，他說不得不敬佩台灣唱片公司的專業。
