During the Xinqiao Conference (the Seminar of Literary and Artistic Workers held by the Publicity Department of the CPC Central Committee and the National Film Creation Conference held by the Ministry of Culture of China) held in June 1961, Chinese Primer Zhou Enlai said, "The qualities of literary and artistic works should be judged by the public instead of the leaders."

The "Hundred-Flower Awards", as the practice and outcome of the "artistic democracy" advocated by the "Xinqiao Conference" and the first national mass film awarding activity of the new China, appeared.

On April 28, 1962, the results of the "Hundred-Flower Awards" were announced. Chen Qiang, Cui Wei and Zhu Xijuan who won the Best Supporting Actor Award, Best Leading Actor Award and Best Leading Actress Award, as well as the majority of Yu Lan, Wang Yuzhen, Qin Yi, Wang Xingang, Liang Boluo and Zhao winning considerable votes, were listed on the Top 22 Superstars.

Currently, only half of the Top 22 Superstars are still alive and they are Yu Yang, Yu Lan, Xie Fang, Qin Yi, Wang Danfeng, Zhu Xijuan, Pang Xueqin, Jin Di, Wang Xingang, Tian Hua and Wang Xiaotang.
