Yung Mei Ling and Zhang Guorong visited candidates for the second season of the top ten song award in 1983. The recording of these videos probably took place  July 26 and 27, 1983, because there was news that Liang Zhaowei presided over Jinqu. Liang Chaowei's blue and white T-shirt and Yung Mei Ling's were the same. In addition, Liang's right waist had a walkman. There is another evidence of "yesterday" - that is, on July 28th, Chen Jieling mentioned that she had filmed the Golden Songs...Yung Mei Ling and Cai Fenghua visited Lin Zhimei to shoot at the top of the mountain... The program was broadcast on jade channel on the evening of the 30th.

翁美玲阿翁访问张国荣是主持《1983十大劲歌金曲第二季》据推测，拍摄于1983.7.26，27日这两天，因为27号有梁朝伟主持劲歌金曲的新闻，梁朝伟蓝白T恤和阿翁那次很像是同一件，加上梁朝伟右腰都有个随身听。还有一个佐证 “昨日”——也就是7.28日陈洁灵提到她拍摄过劲歌金曲的。。。阿翁蔡枫华访问林志美是在山顶拍摄。。。节目在30号晚上翡翠台播出。

This series of videos came from one single TV programme in which Barbara was one of MCs. The programme announced the results of the songs awarded with Top Ten Pop Cantonese Songs in the First Season of 1983 Jade Solid Gold (JSG). At that time, TVB had two Channels, Jade and Pearl. The former broadcated Cantonese programmes and the latter broadcasted English ones. Barbara, Ken Choi , Tony Leung and the actress ' were the MCs. In the videos, Barbara and other MCs visited the singers to bring the good news that their songs had been selected into the Top Ten and interviewed them of how they felt. In the sixth video, Barbara explained the mechanism of how the Top Ten Songs were selected.

    Finally, I visited her resting place in Cambridge back in late October 2025. Cleaned the area and pulled some weeds. It’s been 40 years, and nobody can replace her. Always wonder what she would become if she were still alive.

    It made no difference whether Jackie Chan spoke about Barbara or not. In fact, Jackie Chan appeared in several photos with Barbara, Kent, and her mother, and his wife, Joan Lin, was also photographed with Barbara on a few occasions. Barbara had already risen to fame on her own merit and exceptional acting talent. She was one of the fastest actresses to gain widespread recognition, and she did not need any endorsement from him. By the 1980s, she was regarded as an elite actress. Truly, she was a phenomenal performer—and she continues to be recognized and admired to this day.

    Thanks for the research and clearing things up Rob , I guess that Jackie only knew Barbara through promotional and charity events … They also never starred together in films / series …

    This is what ChatGTP says: There’s no known documented instance where Jackie Chan (成龍) has publicly mentioned Barbara Yung (翁美玲) in interviews, autobiographies, or other recorded statements. Searches through available English and Chinese sources do not find any credible quote, interview excerpt, or reliable record in which Jackie Chan talks about Barbara Yung by name. Summary There’s no credible documented evidence that Jackie Chan ever publicly spoke about Barbara Yung — either praising her, remembering her, or otherwise referencing her — in interviews or other primary sources available to date.
