Synopsis
In 2014, on the night of a super typhoon that had not happened in fifty years, Shangguan's three-story new building collapsed. The mother was killed and the whereabouts of the father are unknown, leaving only a phone call that was torn to pieces by the strong wind: "Iron box... Jade... Keep an eye on..." The elder sister Shangguan Daxue is as calm as iron, while the younger sister Shangguan Xiaoxue is soft on the outside but strong on the inside. Carrying an ancestral iron box and half a piece of imperial green jade, the two sisters crawled out of the ruins and fled all the way to the county seat. Three generations of Li Hao's family have been looking for these nine pieces of jade for three generations - they robbed Shangguan's theater during the Republic of China, and now they have destroyed the bodies and traces of them through typhoons. The two sisters recorded this account. From singing on the streets to singing in KTV, from shooting commercials to provincial art performances, from county towns to provincial capitals, from Hong Kong Island to Nanyang and then to Hollywood. They sang old operas, danced old dances, spoke fluent English, made movies, ventured into the world, and lived their lives into light step by step. If you hold a sapphire pendant close to your heart, it will burn when danger comes; if you carry a half piece of jade in your pocket, it will become heavy when encountering old things. The Nine Palaces Hidden Jade Bureau set up by their ancestors, the old case of the theater troupe Shen Hai, the secret of her aunt's fake death and retirement, and the truth about her father's disappearance, are all unfolding under their feet one by one. Some people want to praise them, some want to destroy them, and some people see the shadow of another person in their faces. Hong Kong actress Lam Jiayi, who is both an enemy and a friend, and the secretive advertising man Ye Hanchuan, each has a story behind them. But I am not afraid of heavy snow. The sister in the play can hold up everything in the flames of war, and so can she outside the play. This is the growth history of a pair of twin sisters, and also the rise and fall of a theater troupe over a century. There is snow in the Twin Cities, but the stars never go out. Purpose: This is a female coming-of-age novel about perseverance and inheritance of sex. After the twin sisters Shangguan Daxue and Shangguan Xiaoxue died at home, they climbed out of the ruins carrying an ancestral iron box and half a piece of jade. They sang all the way from the county town to the provincial capital, from Hong Kong Island to Nanyang, and finally stood on the world stage. They use their opera skills to sing old songs, dance old dances, and make movies, integrating the endangered opera charm of the Republic of China into the contemporary entertainment industry, so that old tunes can be heard by young people again. The work uses the Jiugong Ge Hidden Jade Bureau as a clue to connect the secrets of the century-old rise and fall of the Shangguan opera troupe, the old case of the Taichang shipwreck at sea, and the aunt's fake death and retreat. The final point is that the two sides of the Taiwan Strait are connected by blood and the roots of opera are continuous**——\\
