Zhou Bichang (Traditional Chinese: 周筆暢; Simplified Chinese: 周笔畅; pinyin: Zhōu Bǐchàng; also known as Bibi Chow), born on July 26, 1985, is a Chinese singer and songwriter. She was the first runner-up in the 2005 Super Girl Competition, which is a Chinese version of American Idol for only female contestants.

Her voice has been appropriated as a female version of David Tao and Lee-Hom Wang, as she covered some of their songs during the contest. On March 18, 2006, Zhou signed a recording contract with Yuelin Music. Since then, she has released several singles, an EP, and a debut album. Zhou also started her acting career in 2006 as she starred in the films McDull, the Alumni and The 601st Phone Call.
