[Republican-era Peking Opera star x once-devoted fan turned director]
Song Qiuyan was a celebrated star of her era in Republican China. After transmigrating, she became a fool in an opera theater, and her own memorial tablet had been placed beside that of the founding master, where it received offerings of incense.
When people heard that the fool wanted to learn opera, they burst into laughter.
"Does she even know what opera is?"
"Can she tell the sheng, dan, jing, and chou roles apart? Which of singing, reciting, acting, and acrobatics can she do?"
"Exactly. Peking Opera isn't something just anyone can dabble in. And she thinks she can go onstage?"
Later, everyone was shocked to discover that the fruit plate beside Song Qiuyan was actually the trophy for the highest honor, the Plum Blossom Award.
"I'm sorry, I was blind!"
"Mr. Song, could... could I have your autograph?"
"Mr. Song, do another piece! From now on, I'll buy a ticket for every one of Boss Song's performances!"
In the past, the theater had been packed, with not a seat to spare.
Now, there were few customers, and hardly anyone in the audience.
Song Qiuyan was so furious she nearly stopped breathing. She flung her sleeves, but in the end she'd have to do it herself: promote the national treasure and bring it back to its peak!
The master his grandfather spoke of was Fu Yuchi's teacher, a peerless beauty and a famous figure in her day, an opera fanatic and devotee without equal.
Only after seeing her with his own eyes did Fu Yuchi understand what it meant to be "born for opera," what it meant to be an "opera lunatic," and how someone could become whatever they performed.
To him, Song Qiuyan was like any other woman in everything else, but when it came to opera and promoting Peking Opera, she was serious.
Song Qiuyan had pride and charisma of her own. When she stepped onto the stage, she only needed to change locations to become a celebrated star.

You were born before I was born, but I was born before you were old. Although it is not a happy ending, it is still satisfactory. After all, life is full of regrets.
A child from Shanxi who was raised by his grandparents said that whenever there is a temple fair here, we sing Da Jinzhi. I can almost sing it. It is the first time I see the author's point of view and I can accept it, although I have never thought about this direction before. I was actually quite sad last night. I saw the covers of Goddess Pi Guan and other operas on station B, so I wanted to look for Jin Opera. Then the official account of Jin Opera was closed long ago, and it didn't have as many fans as I did. . How should I put it? I feel that Jin Opera does not have as strong a sense of uniqueness as other operas. I feel that as a region in the ancient Central Plains, it is a complete cultural fusion opera. Then the older I grew up, the less people watched it. Every time I went to the theater, I would bring my own pony to watch with a group of grandparents. I didn't have any similar interests. And occasionally, some classmates would think you were weird. In recent years, the epidemic has caused no temple fairs, which makes me feel sad. I really don't find anyone born after 2000 paying attention to local Shanxi operas. I really hope that like the novel, more and more people will pay attention to Jin opera. When I saw that there was only one old man in the audience, I shed tears as a steel girl, because I had bought a similar one, and the boss said that it would not be enough to put melon seeds on each table. The great article gave me a lot of strength. I will continue to support our local drama.
My dog, let me talk about it first, finally finished and started watching!
You smoked a lot, but my master was ruined by his son. Thinking about it makes me feel bad for him.
(?? Benefit?) It's better not to watch the extra. The ending is BE. I just sighed. After watching the extra, I burst into tears.
I caught up here in one breath and found that there are many plays sung by the same teachers as the author (actually quite normal, after all, the teachers are all famous actors and their popularity is relatively high)
I finally waited for her
Why is the guy named Tang still jumping around?
I just happened to lend money to the male protagonist to make a movie, haha
To be honest, I don't really like some of the plot points of traditional Peking Opera, but the singing and bodywork are so good that I keep listening to them.
