From the Start, the Four Great Peking Opera Divas Taught Me to Sing

Can we focus on writing opera without worry? The all-around protagonist is outdated.

Aren't you afraid of being reported? ... You wrote about the four great masters of Peking Opera in a slightly distorted way. Did anyone report you?

To be honest, Peking Opera has practically no market anymore, except for a very small number of enthusiasts. Guo Zi's theater troupe doesn't attract true Peking Opera lovers; it's mostly there because of his name—it's fan culture. Urban youth won't spend money and time going to a theater to see a play. They'd much rather watch movies, go to concerts, or follow their idols.

The first two pictures were uncomfortable to look at. 1. Because the teacher assigned her to perform the scene from "Garden Gift of Gold" to "Toujun Bieyao," she didn't get to perform the scenes from "Wujiapo" and "Dadengdian" where she argued with the teacher. Sister, "Three Slaps" is a very wonderful scene for Wang Baochuan, and it's also a scene that lays the foundation for female roles.

This book is doomed and will soon be relegated to my back burner. There's a reason why this author's books aren't popular. If you're going to write about the entertainment industry, then start writing about the entertainment industry. Use Peking Opera as a seasoning, but if you're going to write about Peking Opera, then write about Peking Opera properly.

Since yesterday's update, I feel like I'm back to the same old formula, with Donnie Yen and Chi Ling again. It feels like I'm about to start chasing my dream in the entertainment industry again. If there weren't so few authors writing about Peking Opera online, I definitely wouldn't read this author's novels. I'll wait until it's finished before coming back and skipping around. The journey through the martial arts world is long, see you in the next book.

Damn, how much does the author like Guo Degang?

The building is crooked, it's a mess. I've been practicing Peking Opera for a long time, a few schools are okay, but each... I couldn't stand watching this show anymore. It's true what they say, every profession has its own secrets.

To be honest, I didn't really want to watch it after seeing the participating singers. If it's Peking Opera, just say Peking Opera. Even if you're doing calligraphy or something, I can understand. But crossing over is just discouraging. I glanced at the table of contents and had no desire to continue. If it says later that you're going on an international tour, are you going to sing or sing Peking Opera?

It's a waste of money for the state to maintain such a large Peking Opera troupe. Why not just have a few smaller ones for high-ranking officials and those who like it? What's the point of having so many Peking Opera troupes?
