In her youth, Leong had participated in many local singing competitions and emerged as winners in a few of them. Veteran singer Jonathan Lee discovered her during a singing competition at Hai Luo. She was then singing a song called Qī Dài (期待) which was composed by her friend. She started her career in Taiwan in October 1997 after joining Rock Records of Taiwan. It was then that she adopted the name "Fish", supposedly because of her salmon-like features. Her debut album Yí Yè Zhǎng Dà (一夜长大)was released after two years, only to encounter an earthquake on the day of the album launch promotion (21 September, 1999). Her career only managed to take off after the successful launch of her second album Yǒng Qì (勇气). ( A, ?4 U1 C: ]( F2 Z, J, w" c
