Peking Opera art is very particular about the inheritance of teachers, why do you say so? It is not because of the name of the master and apprentice, but the inheritance between the master and the apprentice, because the oral teaching between the master and the apprentice has the inheritance of Peking Opera art for more than 200 years.
Li Shiji is a controversial figure, she has no teacher, but she has another identity, that is, the dry daughter of Master Cheng Yanqiu. Even about this dry daughter is also controversial, Li Shiji said that Master Cheng Yanqiu valued her very much and thought she had talent, while Cheng Yongjiang (Cheng Yanqiu's son) said that his father was forced to go there, and li Shiji prostrated his head.
Master Cheng Yanqiu had female disciples, and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, he accepted Jiang Xinrong. But why hasn't Li Shiji been said, she herself said that it has been delayed and then master Cheng Yanqiu has no chance after he died.
However, Li Shiji was very domineering after the death of Master Cheng Yanqiu, and he did not look up to Xin Yanqiu, and later joined Jiang Xinrong in a regiment, and also asked Jiang Xinrong to match her with the results of the battle and was rejected.
In particular, Li Shiji's reform of the Cheng school has made many people say that the Peking Opera Cheng school has been changed beyond recognition.
Cheng Yanqiu originally did not want her to engage in the Peking Opera industry, and did not know that Cheng Zuhou did not regret accepting this disciple.
It is precisely because Li Shiji became the head of the Cheng school after the Cultural Revolution, so many people want to worship under Li Shiji, but are these people really for art?
Take Liu Guijuan as the most similar to learning Li Shiji, but she often cares about some things other than art.
Now that Teacher Li Shiji has been dead for many years, her "New Cheng Sect" has also fallen. Of course, there are also people who like the "Xincheng Sect", and many disciples also actively organize activities to commemorate Li Shiji.
However, in many activities, Liu Guijuan's figure is almost invisible, in fact, not only Liu Guijuan, but also some people do not commemorate Teacher Li Shiji when they see the decline of the "New Cheng Sect".
