When Song Yanzhi first entered the entertainment industry, everyone thought he was just an ordinary pretty-boy extra who would make no waves at all.
He was 1.7 meters tall and weighed less than 50 kilos. He was so frail that he would stumble and fall even while dancing.
His only advantage was probably his face: picture-perfect features, skin as pale as jade, and a striking red mole beneath his left eye.
People all said, “So what if he’s handsome? He’s short and has no special talents. There are plenty of pretty-boy deadweights in the entertainment industry. Why should he be the one to become famous?”
Later, Song Yanzhi performs opera on a singing show, plays a large drum on a variety show, plays the guqin on an interview program, and recites poetry on a poetry show... Song Yanzhi has truly become a modern-day man from ancient times.
His fans: “Sob, how is Song Yanzhi so amazing? We’re so lucky to have Yanzhi in the entertainment industry!”
The inheritors of intangible cultural heritage all say: “We thank heaven for giving us a Song Yanzhi. Yanzhi is to Huaguo what a pillar is to a hall.”

Song Yanzhi has had a secret since childhood. Ever since he stumbled into that ancient temple at the age of three, his life was destined to be different.
He has four masters. The first teaches him the six arts of the qin, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and prose. The second teaches him to dance, shape his brows, apply makeup, and sew clothes. The third teaches him vocal techniques, melodies, disguises, and opera. The fourth teaches him all kinds of esoteric skills and how to wave a great flag...
And all of it is simply for the sake of passing on the traditions.
Premise: The great figures of our nation must be celebrated.
