Liao Wen-chin, a Taiwanese man doing business on the mainland, is impressed by the children in the PRC: "When mainland kids study opera, they're willing to study and work very hard, and they really do take a genuine interest in theater." Liao used to run an opera school in Zhangzhou and had once been planning to send his students off to Taiwan and Southeast Asia.
曾經在漳州開設過歌仔戲學校，打算將學生往台灣與東南亞輸出的台商廖文欽也補充，「大陸的孩子來學戲，不僅肯學肯吃苦，而且真的對戲曲有很大的興趣。」
