She didn't return to the stage until 2014.
Zhang, who is married and has a child, keeps a low profile and lives a quiet life.
She does not even use a computer or a cellphone, she says.
Given her influence and popularity, the National Academy of Chinese Theater Arts launched an art heritage center named after her in November.
The center is dedicated to teaching, performing and researching the Cheng school.
As for her future plans, Zhang says: "I want to maintain a balance between teaching and performing as we have many talented young actors. I hope to inspire the next generation with my knowledge and experience."
