As a student of the Xu School of Yue Opera, Qian Huili has been performing "Jia Baoyu" on the stage since her debut, and she is also the actor who has starred in Yue Opera "Dream of Red Mansions" the most times. On the same day, she handed over the stage to her beloved Yue Opera fans. Che Yongqin, the head of the Yue Opera Salon Team of Songjiang District University for the Elderly, was the first to take the stage and sang a song "Dream of Red Mansions" "Thinking of the Beginning". At the end of the song, Qian Huili came to the stage with a smile and applause, commenting from the perspectives of character analysis, emotional grasp, voice ups and downs, etc., and a few sentences of demonstration in the play when it comes to the key points. "To be an actor you have to be 100% committed, and you don't have to wait for the stage to enter the theater. Qian Huili said that she has been studying script roles since she was 18 years old and never gets tired.
Wu Nong spoke softly and sang babbling. The actors on the stage are immersed in it, and the audience is also as if they are in the play.

Yao Chunling said, "I benefited a lot from Mr. Qian's comments, and I was also touched by the story of Mr. Qian and Yue Opera." ”
The day's activities lasted for more than two hours, and more than a dozen students took the stage to show, and at the end of each display, Qian Huili commented and guided in detail. "Most of them have been following Yue Opera since they were young, and I am very happy that they have joined the team to learn Yue Opera after they retired. I hope that my sharing today will make them love Yue Opera even more, and I also hope that we can work together to contribute to the inheritance of Yue Opera. Qian Huili said.
