Since the beginning of 2020, many once dazzling stars in the showbiz circle have fallen, following the death of the old drama bone Tian Chengren, Lu Yuan, Li Ji and singer Kerim and others, today, Taiwan's showbiz circle also sent a sad news - Xiao Fengxian, a big coffee in the opera industry, died in the hospital in the early morning this morning, at the age of 80.
When it comes to Gezai opera and "Xiao Fengxian", perhaps not many people in the mainland region know about it, but in fact, Gezai opera, like Peking Opera and Yue opera, is a kind of opera drama, which quickly became popular in southern Fujian and Southeast Asia after the rise in Taiwan in the early 20th century. In 2006, Gezai Opera was also included in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage list.
The original name of Chen Liru's Xiao Fengxian has a very high status in the opera industry, she began to learn drama at an early age, and later changed her stage name to "Xiao Fengxian" because of the popularity of "Xiao Fengxian and Cai Songpo".
Yang Lihua, who is known as the first xiaosheng of Taiwanese opera, is Xiao Fengxian's friend before he died. Xiao Fengxian is also known as the "Happy Drama God", she is the soul of Yang Lihua's song and play, and she is also the clown of Yang Lihua's opera troupe, and there are many fans of the play before she died.
The friendship between Xiao Fengxian and Yang Lihua can be traced back to a long time ago, when Yang Lihua established the Gezai Theater Troupe, she promoted Xiao Fengxian to an opera director, and Xiao Fengxian not only cultivated many well-known students for the Gezai Troupe, she also wrote gezai drama books, which can be described as a literary and martial all-rounder. As a rare talent in the opera industry, Xiao Fengxian's departure is undoubtedly a major loss to the Taiwanese opera industry.
It is reported that the 80-year-old Xiao Fengxian has been plagued by diabetes in recent years, and her last performance before her death was probably when she was 74 years old, after which she spent most of her time recuperating at home, and Yang Lihua went to Xiao Fengxian's house with her friends to visit her from time to time.
But Xiao Fengxian died in the hospital this time, and Yang Lihua did not see the last side of her friend, which was a pity.
It turned out that due to the recent impact of the epidemic, Yang Lihua had thought about going to the hospital to visit Xiao Fengxian for a while, but she did not expect that Xiao Fengxian would still take a step first. Because she could not see the last side of her friend, Yang Lihua felt sad at the thought of it, and once shed tears and sighed. And because of the epidemic situation, Yang Lihua can not go to the hospital to send Xiao Fengxian on the last journey, she said that the current hospital control visits, Xiao Fengxian's family does not want them to pass, indicating that their hearts have been received.
In the face of the regret of missing the last side of her friends and not being able to send the last journey, Yang Lihua's sadness is indescribable, when she posted a tribute to Xiao Fengxian on the social platform, she only sent a short sentence: "Sister, all the way to go", but it is enough to let people feel the heaviness of her heart...
With the death of Xiao Fengxian, more people began to understand her experience before her death. It turned out that in addition to being plagued by diabetes before she died, she had surgery for knee aging 10 years ago, and she had experienced myocardial infarction and small stroke, and after being tortured by a series of illnesses, her body could be said to have been much worse than before, so she was rarely exposed to people in recent years.
Moreover, in order to develop the career of singing and playing before her death, Xiao Fengxian has not been married, let alone had children. She was unmarried and childless all her life, but fortunately she had a younger brother who had passed on to her son and an adopted daughter, so that she could not be miserable and lonely in her old age, and she had children and grandchildren to accompany her.
Now that Xiao Fengxian has died of illness, for her, she finally does not have to suffer from illness anymore, but for her relatives, friends and fans who remain in the world, she has to bear the pain of losing her loved ones and idols. Xiao 8 hopes that Xiao Fengxian can live well in another world, relatives, friends and fans can mourn, and also hope that in 2020, change a less uncomfortable script.
