In the late 50s of the last century, major Peking Opera troupes began to create and arrange revolutionary modern operas, in fact, revolutionary modern opera did not exist on the opera stage in the past. Because of the different themes, most of the plays on the stage in the past were based on talented and beautiful people, and the emperor would be the main traditional theme plays.
It is precisely because of this that the creation of traditional opera and revolutionary modern opera is actually a collision of new and old ideas, and the leading actors of revolutionary modern opera in major Peking Opera troupes at that time are also some old Peking Opera artists, but practice has shown that they are not suitable, because the performance has always adhered to the performance method of traditional opera, so it is somewhat incompatible to interpret modern opera.
In fact, it is not fair to them that some old Peking Opera artists were affected by the Cultural Revolution and withdrew from the stage, because they may not be suitable for the performance of revolutionary modern opera, but they will not be affected and will not withdraw from the stage.
Especially during this period, some young actors have attacked their teachers, even old-timers, which is not correct. Some people say that this is the reason of the times, there are indeed real reasons, many young actors lost themselves in this period, but the bigger reason is that they have not stuck to their original intention.
Fang Rongxiang's famous Peking Opera performance artist, his teacher Master Qiu Shengrong during the Cultural Revolution, was shocked, and in his later years he was ill and remained ill.
During this period, some disciples were very disrespectful to Master Qiu Shengrong, and it was even rumored that some people had beaten Master Qiu Shengrong. But Mr. Fang Rongxiang has always treated his mentor like a father, and has always served his teacher in the hospital, which is Yide, and it is precisely because of this that many people respect Mr. Fang Rongxiang.
