In 1918, he changed to playing the huqin and studied under Cao Xinquan. In the 1920s, he was invited to accompany Mei Lanfang and compiled a new tune for "Xi Shi". Since then, he has been working with Mei for the rest of his life. When accompanying Mei Lanfang, Wang Shaoqing cooperated with Xu Lanyuan to study the introduction of Erhu into Peking Opera to enrich the band. Wang Shaoqing created a lot of ingenuity in the new tune, and made a lot of contributions to the well-known "Mei tune". Many of Jiang Miaoxiang's new accents were created by Wang Shaoqing. Wang Shaoqing's Huqin took the method from Mei Yutian and Sun Zuochen, and the technique is delicate and strong. The support cavity is ever-changing, and the single and double bows are used alternately.
He also works in Kunqu Opera, and loves the Beijing rhyme drum. He likes to play the sanxian.
