Synopsis
Everyone says that actors are the most ruthless when it comes to acting on the spot, but in the troubled times of the Republic of China, frost and snow fell all over the streets of the pear garden, and no one knew that these childhood sweethearts had already engraved each other in their bones and blood, and they would never be separated. Shen Yanzhi is the king of martial arts at the top of the troupe. He sings with heroic demeanor and awe-inspiring domineering power on stage, but he is gentle and restrained off the stage. He is full of tenderness for Su Jinqing and only protects her throughout his life. Su Jinqing is a stunning green dress from the south of the Yangtze River. She has flowing sleeves and a gorgeous singing voice. She looks gentle and frail, but hides an unyielding strong heart in her bones. The two grew up playing together as children. On stage, they are Ba Wang and Yu Ji, who have an unparalleled tacit understanding, and their singing and harmony amaze everyone. Off the stage, they are private lovers for life, promising to stay together for many years, and to live a peaceful life on the stage. But in the troubled times, the flames of war suddenly ignited, and the invaders' iron hoofs trampled the tranquility of the south of the Yangtze River, raging all the way to Peiping. The teacher who taught him the art was brutally killed by the enemy while protecting the theater troupe. The once bustling theater was reduced to ruins, and his classmates were displaced and in danger. The cruel enemy even threatened the lives of the entire city and forced the two of them to perform on stage, sing the song of national subjugation for the invaders, and bow down to surrender. If you surrender, you can save your life and gain each other's temporary stability; if you don't surrender, you will risk your life and end up with no bones left. On one side, there is the stability of the mortal world, and on the other side, there is the actor's pride and family and country integrity that cannot be desecrated. When the lonely stage is slowly erected on the ruins of the roaring artillery fire, he and she will choose to lower their heads and survive, or will they take the drama as their bones and their lives to protect their love, and run with pride into the frost of troubled times to sing the last song of the opera house that shakes the mountains and rivers? Purpose: In troubled times, we still stick to our integrity and the righteousness of our family and country. Even if we are as small as duckweed, we still have national integrity and an innocent heart that would rather break than bend.
