Cry for the first time
Su Chunmei was born in 1972 and was a fourth-grade student at Guangdong Cantonese Opera School in 1992. One day in early spring, Su Chunmei was in class, and the class teacher said to her: Change your clothes immediately, and I will take you to meet someone. The person I saw was none other than the Cantonese opera master Red Line Woman.

Su Chunmei's red line female famous song "Zhaojun Out of the Plug". A very difficult Cantonese song, Su Chunmei sang with a board and an eye, and her voice was suppressed. Before the song stopped, the red line woman had already made a decision: "Tomorrow I will come to work, can I?" Chun Mei was anxious: "But I still have to go to class, and I haven't graduated yet." The teacher quickly replied: "It doesn't matter, first work in the troupe, and the graduation procedures will be done when the time comes." In this way, Su Chunmei became an official actor of the Guangzhou Hongdou Cantonese Opera Troupe founded by the Red Line Woman.
Serve as the main seal
A few months after Su Chunmei arrived at the Hongdou Cantonese Opera Troupe, the troupe received an invitation from the Hong Kong Culture and Arts Centre Grand Theatre, but the original starring actor could not perform, and the female teacher of the red line reached the point of using Su Chunmei to "receive the seal" to go out on the expedition, and the performance time was less than ten days. The red line woman said to Su Chunmei: "Hurry up and familiarize yourself with the song (memorize the lines), you must memorize it!" ”

Before the Hong Kong performance, the red line woman deliberately walked to the front of the stage to introduce the new Hua Dan to the audience, modestly saying that it was only "half a Hua Dan" and asking the Hong Kong audience to review it. During the curtain, he also personally presented a famous song and gave it to the Hong Kong audience to cheer up the disciples. In the end, Su Chunmei successfully completed the performance task.
South to Shenzhen
In 1997, the Guangzhou Red Line Women's Art Center was completed, and the Red Line female teacher left the Hongdou Cantonese Opera Troupe to work at the Art Center. Without a teacher guarding the troupe, Su Chun Meidun felt confused. Soon, the Shenzhen Cantonese Opera Troupe, which was short of printing Dan, seized the opportunity and sent someone to persuade Su Chunmei to join the shenzhen Cantonese Opera Troupe.

He also made friends with many famous artists of Kunqu opera, Peking Opera, Yue Opera and other drama genres, and studied and exchanged with many parties.
Back to Guangzhou
Before her death, the red line woman instructed Yu Yong of Guangzhou Cantonese Theater Co., Ltd. to transfer Su Chunmei back to Guangzhou. Su Chunmei's excellent business ability and modest character have also won the care and help of Li Ziliu, the former mayor of Guangzhou. Finally, in 2015, Su Chunmei returned to the Guangzhou RedLine Women's Art Center and restarted a new artistic journey.

When Su Chunmei was in the Shenzhen Cantonese Opera Troupe, she wanted to win the Plum Blossom Award, but missed the opportunity due to mechanism and personal reasons. The new version of "Search Academy" specially invited Tong Weiwei, director of Shanghai Yue Theatre, to reinterpret and adjust the whole play.
