Republic of China: With the support of the veteran actor system, it is invincible

For example, the Cheng school's ancestor Xin Yanqiu in later generations, her stage name has a story behind it!

Xin Yanqiu performed on stage at the Kaiming Theater at the age of 15 and was named "Yulanfang".

Child actors of that era would borrow the names of big-name stars as their stage names when they debuted. The name "Yulanfang" was naturally borrowed from Mei Lanfang!

However, one day, Qi Rushan, a famous figure in the Mei Party, happened to watch one of her plays and said, "This child clearly sings like Cheng Laosi!"

So, Qi Rushan invited Xin Yanqiu to his home and helped her change her stage name!

Because Cheng Yanqiu’s stage name at that time was "Cheng Yanqiu"!

After Xin Yanqiu changed her name, she wanted to become Cheng Yanqiu's disciple. However, they were of similar age, and Cheng Yanqiu had previously stated that he would not accept female disciples, so he flatly refused!

Although Xin Yanqiu eventually became Mei Lanfang's disciple, she still sang Cheng school operas the most!

Xin Yanqiu was also resentful that she could not become Cheng Yanqiu's disciple, so she not only competed with Cheng Yanqiu and poached his talents, but even stole Cheng Yanqiu's troupe, turning the two of them into complete enemies!

Xin Yanqiu later admitted that she had learned a lot from Cheng Yanqiu.

Although Cheng Yanqiu was hailed as the founder of the Cheng School, she was never acknowledged until his death.

This is also the biggest regret in her life!

And now Xin Yanqiu is in the rising period of art, specializing in Cheng style!

Last year in Shanghai, Xin Yanqiu and Cheng Yanqiu had a confrontation!

The so-called rival performance means performing at the same time as the opponent in a very close place, preferably with the same play!

Let’s see who has stronger appeal and sells more tickets!

Unless it is a life-and-death feud, few people would do such a thing!

Cheng school's singing style is slow and leisurely in nature. When singing this slow tempo, it is even more charming and the singing is like the flow of a stream, which makes people feel very comfortable when listening to it.

There is a very strange phenomenon in the opera industry!

That is, it is difficult for people who like Mei style to like Cheng style!

People who like Cheng style are not very interested in Mei style!

Therefore, it is rare for these two groups of drama fans to be compatible!

This is completely different from other professions or schools. I like the Ma school, the Tan school, and I can also listen to the Qi school.

The Mei school and the Cheng school are really either this or that.

Every time Mei Lanfang and Cheng Yanqiu performed in the same city, the media would deliberately stir up disputes between the two, trying to make them compete against each other.

However, although Cheng Yanqiu always set the goal of surpassing Mei Lanfang, as Mei Lanfang's apprentice, he never had the idea of ​​betraying his teacher and ancestors.

This is just like many celebrities in later generations. Just because the two have similar styles and are likely to clash in resources, their fans start to tear each other apart online!

In fact, in private, the relationship between the two is very good, but because of the brainless actions of the fans outside, the two have to become strangers!

……

Lin Mu's opening words were a feast for the ears of the drama fans present.

The flavor of the Cheng style is so authentic!

Apart from Cheng Yanqiu, there is no other Cheng style Qingyi as good as him!

After all, Cheng Yanqiu was only 31 years old and was far from reaching the peak of his art. Even the Cheng School was just a name and had not really formed a truly mature school!

In terms of singing skills alone, Lin Mu’s performance was already perfect!

"I, Sun Shangxiang, have nothing to say—"

Looking at Meng Xiaodong and Ye Shenglan kneeling in front of him, Lin Mu could only sigh!

After all, men are still respected in this era. No matter what the reason, I can't just stand there and endure it when my husband kneels down to me.

"He came forward and helped her up—"

"Tell the noble man to listen to the instructions again——"
