Born on October 22, 1921 in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, his uncle was the original screenwriter and director of the Shao opera "Sun Wukong Three Dozen White Bone Essences", and played the Eight Precepts of the Pig in the play, which was called "both shape and god, clumsy and clever, harmonious and vulgar, and funny", and was praised as "Seven Pig Drama" and "The First Pig in the World". After 1931, together with his brother, my father's six-year-old child, and many colleagues from the senior generation of the Shao opera industry, he inherited the Tongchun stage where his grandfather Zhang Yisheng was the head of the class, and then prepared the Tongchun Shao Opera Troupe and served as the head of the troupe, laying a solid artistic foundation for the Zhejiang Shao Opera Troupe, which was renamed after the founding of New China. In 1953, his uncle initiated the first Shaoxing Shao Opera Training Class organized by various Shao Opera Troupes, and he served as the class teacher, cultivating the new forces of Shao Opera from generation to generation and passing on the art of Shao Opera.

His uncle was humble and studious, versatile, both literary and martial arts, unique, learning from the "Hai School" at that time, the company director of the "Hai School", self-editing, self-directing, self-acting seventy-two "Ji Gong Biography", thirty-six "Journey to the West", etc., can be regarded as an unprecedented innovation in the history of Shao opera. This year marks the 60th anniversary of Chairman Mao Zedong, Liu Shaoqi, Deng Xiaoping and other party and state leaders watching the stage performance of the Shao opera "Sun Wukong Three Dozen White Bone Essences" at Huairen Hall in Zhongnanhai, and the inscription poem "Seven Laws and Comrade Guo Moruo" for the play, and it is also the 60th anniversary of the release of the Shao opera movie "Sun Wukong Three Dozen White Bone Essences".

Throughout his life, my uncle adhered to the leadership of the Communist Party of China, unswervingly listened to the party, followed the party, supported the party's various principles and policies, conscientiously implemented Chairman Mao's revolutionary literary and artistic line, and made major and irreplaceable contributions to the inheritance, innovation, prosperity and development of Chinese Shao opera. He dedicated his legendary and brilliant life to his beloved Shao opera art cause, and the "stupid costume and clever performance" he created has coexisted with the world and has been in the world for a long time.
The seven-year-old boy was my uncle, but he was like a loving father, and in the face of injustice and physical and mental difficulties in the special era at that time, he still had the humor and humor of the Eight Precepts of the Pig, keeping the pain to himself and giving joy to others. He and my father, the sixth-year-old children's brother on stage, and the brothers on stage, but they are all role models in my life and art.

After the founding of New China, the establishment of the Zhejiang Shao Opera Troupe (with my father six-year-old boy as the first head of the troupe) established the system of "Zhang's Monkey Opera" to form, develop and pass on. After the reform and opening up, I had the honor to participate in the filming of the 41-episode TV series "Journey to the West" co-produced by CCTV and the China Television Drama Production Center, starring Sun Wukong, which is also the first time in the world that modern TV high-tech media technology and the art of national monkey opera have been used to completely record and preserve the basic picture of the story since the novel "Journey to the West" came out in the last year of the Ming Dynasty, which caused great repercussions after being broadcast at home and abroad, and also made the performing arts of "Zhang's Monkey Play" develop and spread widely...
What is gratifying to his uncle is that he has carefully cultivated two excellent sons, and the eldest son, the seven-year-old child, who took over his uncle's class, continued to play the role of Pig Eight Commandments in the Shao opera, and his native worker was deeply loved by the audience and became the authentic successor of the "Seven Schools of Pig Drama". The second son, the young seven-year-old child, won the charm of my father's six-year-old child in the monkey opera performance, and became an important descendant of the "Zhang's Monkey Play" and a well-known martial artist of Shao opera recognized by the industry. The two cousins are also my childhood teachers, and the brothers have achieved great success in their acting careers, which is gratifying and congratulatory!
Shao opera is one of the three major drama genres in Zhejiang, with a history of more than 300 years and more than 400 plays, Mr. Lu Xun described the scene of watching Shao opera (formerly known as social drama) in his novel "Social Drama".
On December 14, 1957, after Premier Zhou Enlai watched the performance of Shao Opera's "Big Trouble in the Heavenly Palace" at the Sino-Soviet Friendship Building in Shanghai, He took to the stage to receive his father's six-year-old child, his uncle's seven-year-old child, the second brother's sixth-year-old child and other Shao opera colleagues, expressing his support for Shao opera.
I sincerely hope that with artists from all walks of life, the national essence of monkey opera art will be passed on to the torch and immortalized. "Zhang's Monkey Play" is not only surnamed Zhang, but should belong to China and the world.
