Peking Opera art has been passed down for 200 years, but many Famous Peking Opera artists have legendary experiences, and today Xiaobian will talk about it.
As we all know, there are "four famous Dans" in the Peking Opera circle, these four are Mei Lanfang, Shang Xiaoyun, Cheng Yanqiu, Xun Huisheng, but in fact, there is another one that is Xu Biyun. Xu Biyun was ranked among the "Five Famous Dans" at that time, and became famous as WuDan.
Xu Biyun has a play "Green Pearl Falling From the Building", this drama actor has to jump off from a three-story high chair, which tests the skills of Peking Opera actors, and Xu Biyun relies on this hand to walk alone in the pear garden.
Later, Mr. Mei Yutian married his daughter to Xu Biyun, and since then Xu Biyun has also become Mei Lanfang's brother-in-law, which can be described as a very popular moment!
However, there is a saying that "if you don't do it, you won't die", Xu Biyun later contracted opium smoke, and because of this, his voice was broken and he withered. In particular, he later became entangled with the warlord's aunt and wife, and fled Beijing, and the artistic road became worse and worse, and he could not afford to do it, so he made a living by teaching opera.
Later, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Xu Biyun also gained a new life, once the monk Xiaoyun worked in Shaanxi for many years, served as the vice president of the Shaanxi Peking Opera Theater, and also made important contributions to the cause of Peking Opera in Shaanxi.
However, the arrival of the "Cultural Revolution" made Xu Biyun also suffered a shock, once Xu Biyun, who was not in good health, was asked to perform "Green Pearl Falling Down", and his physical weakness could not climb up at all, and later Shang Xiaoyun supported Xu Biyun regardless of his safety.
Xu Biyun also performed "Green Pearl Falling Downstairs" again, but after the performance, he was also seriously ill, and then he died after a gap!
