The reason why this play has become a classic is that Mei Lanfang emphasized the role of Yu Ji and added a lot of dance moves, especially the sword dance at the end, which is definitely a highlight in the history of Peking Opera!
After singing this part, the sound of the huqin had not yet completely faded, Lin Mu stretched out his hand to pull the cloak, raised his head to look at the sky, and said,
"Look, the clouds are gathering and the sky is clear, the ice is rising, what a beautiful autumn scene!"
The last word "scene", Lin Mu's beautiful drawl, described a different scene to everyone!
Military camp, quiet night, hero, beauty, drunken sleep, moongazing, end of the road, melancholy...
The Mei style here seems light, even detached, like a veil of mist, light and leisurely, with a sour and sad feeling.
Lin Mu's performance, however, seemed a little different.
Especially the "look at the king" just now. Although these three words were spoken very softly, the softer they were, the more they could make people feel the darkness of the night and the danger of the overlord.
Lin Mu worked hard on the word "sorrow", singing it in a high-pitched voice, and restrained himself on the word "stable", controlling it to the extreme, making it short and soft.
The fans in the audience were also brought into the history of the late Qin Dynasty by Lin Mu's singing and performance.
In order to show that Yu Ji was deeply in sorrow, Lin Mu also added some tension to Yu Ji's posture, and wanted to show that Yu Ji wanted to do her part to help the Overlord escape from trouble.
As for the singing style, Cheng style is more expressive, and Lin Mu grasps every word and every sentence very well.
Many fans in the audience couldn't help but shed tears of excitement.
Some of them were influenced by the Cheng School, and some of them were influenced by Yu Ji.
The famous artists in the box were also shocked by Lin Mu's performance!
Although Lin Mu’s performance in the previous part was wonderful enough, everyone knew that the climax of the play was this part.
With just one sentence "Look at the king", these people finally felt relieved!
Cheng Yanqiu couldn't help but burst into tears!
Watching the young man in the audience singing "Farewell My Concubine" with his own voice, Cheng Yanqiu felt the pleasure of a liberated serf singing!
Dancing on Meilang’s grave!
Although Cheng Yanqiu didn't know what disco dancing was, that was definitely how he felt right now!
Shang Xiaoyun also sighed and said,
"It's true that the Yangtze River's waters are always pushed forward by the waves behind. I never thought that young people today are so talented!"
Xun Huisheng, who was standing by, covered his mouth and laughed, patting his thigh and said,
"I wonder what our Boss Mei's expression would be like if he knew about this?"
Shang Xiaoyun couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth and said with a smile,
"I guess he will regret divorcing Meng Xiaodong, hahahaha——"
When Mei Lanfang married Meng Xiaodong, not only did the second generation of actors feel heartbroken, but even these three famous actresses were envious!
Who doesn’t want to find a partner who can get along well with them and share the same ideals?
But what was unexpected was that a few years later, Mei Lanfang broke up with Meng Xiaodong. When people learned the inside story, many people sneered at Mei Lanfang's cowardice and indifference!
Monogamy was not a big deal in that era, not to mention that Mei Lanfang had the noble principle of having two wives. As long as he could have the nerve to take Meng Xiaodong into his home, his wife would not dare to lose face with him!
If you dare to do something but not take responsibility for it, you are not a real man!
Over the years, people who dislike Mei Lanfang often dug up this incident in the newspapers, directly pointing out that Mei Lanfang had character problems!
If we can’t defeat you artistically, we will attack you based on your character. This has always been the case!
Therefore, over the years, Mei Lanfang has received both praise and criticism. If Mei Lanfang had not chosen to grow a beard to show his determination during the later Anti-Japanese War, and would rather sell paintings for a living than perform for the "Foot Basin Chicken", it is estimated that he would not have achieved such great success in later generations!
