The modern Chinese zither song "Hitting the Tiger Up the Mountain" is performed by Xiaoxiang Xilan, the lead singer of B Station Up

Beating the Tiger Up the Mountain is a zither solo, which was adapted by Zhao Manqin, a famous zither performer and composer, based on the modern Peking Opera Revolutionary opera "Winning the Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" (also known as "Beating the Tiger Up the Mountain").

The song portrays the scene of PLA heroes crossing the forest and snow fields, fearlessly climbing Mount Weihu. The entire song is majestic and rhythmic, vividly reflecting the scout Yang Zirong's desire for victory and belief in victory before delving into the bandit's lair, as well as his heroic image of great wisdom and bravery.

In this piece of music, the author uses techniques such as chord length, multi finger string arrangement, and fast finger sequence, making it a comprehensive collection of difficult techniques in modern Zheng music.
