Furthermore, the people of Taiwan and the overseas Chinese communities of Southeast Asia, who made up the principal audience for Mandarin movies, all were mad for song. For marketing considerations, Hong Kong movie companies would of course cater to their pleasure and try to put in as many songs as possible.
