QU Baiyin started his career on the stage as a play actor in 1930s. After the January 28 Songhu war broke out, Jiading was invaded by the Japanese troops. Qu determined to take up stage plays as a weapon and grouped Ge Yihong and Tian Lu to establish the Blizzard performing group. Together they were called the "three virtuosos in Jiading's modern drama."
On March 3, 1933, one year after the Japanese military occupation of Jiading, the Blizzard staged several plays with Shanghai Camel Group at Confucius Temple, including "Put Down Your Whip," "The Imperialist Rampage," "To the Front" and "Friend or Foe."
"March 3 in Jiading" and "Transition," both created and played by Qu, Ge and Tian, depicted respectively the Japanese troops' invasion and a youth who made up his mind to join the army and fight against the invaders. Their performances received magnificent support in Jiading. Afterwards, they donated all the returns to Anti-Japanese Volunteers of the Northeast.
In April 1938, the Chinese army achieved victory in Tai'erzhuang and Zhou Enlai assigned the anti-Japanese play group to perform at the front in celebration. Qu was the leader of the No.3 and the No.9 play groups and accepted the mission to leave for Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, with his 22 members. Their wonderful performance received a standing ovation from the audience.
At the beginning of 1944, Qu participated in the first Southwest Play Exposition organized by Tian Han and Ouyang Yuqian.
A total of 60 anti-Japanese plays were staged at the three-month expo, attracting almost 100,000 people. The event turned into a glorious page in Chinese play history.
