I knew Wu Fenghua's name when I was young, I heard her singing repertoire on the radio, and saw the report of the Shaoxing Xiaobaihuayue Opera Troupe in the press. The establishment of Shaoxing Xiaobaihuayue Opera Troupe is another major event in Zhejiang Provincial Theater after the establishment of Zhejiang Xiaobaihuayue Opera Troupe, and its popularity is no less than that of Zhejiang Xiaobaihuayue Troupe. The deeds of Wu Fenghua and other small flowers who practiced hard were constantly seen in the newspapers, and the concept of literary drama and martial singing slowly entered my heart.
At that time, Wu Fenghua's fame was not as great as Mao Weitao's, after all, she was born in 1970. When she walked into Shaoxing Xiaobaihua at the age of 16, Mao Weitao had already made a name for herself throughout the country and became the first plum blossom award winner in the Yue opera industry. In that year, Zhejiang Television broadcast a lot of Yue opera repertoire, mainly Zhejiang Xiaobaihua and Zhejiang Yue Opera Troupe. Although shaoxing xiaobaihua's repertoire exists, it is obviously inferior to the former.
I was really attracted to Wu Fenghua on a leisurely evening. On that day, the whole drama of "Lu Wenlong" was broadcast on the radio, and I seriously heard it from the beginning to the end without watching this play, and was infected by their singing segments. In the back, my ears were their voices, and I unconsciously saw the picture of them on the stage in front of me--although it was the picture I imagined, it was already wonderful. For the first time, I felt that Wu Fenghua was so charming, especially the paragraph "Hugh Wei Wenlong Iron Stone Heart", which made me feel the infinite charm of the Yue Opera Fan Sect, and only then did I know that the Fan Sect could be so affectionate and connotative in addition to being thick and honest.
Later, in the theater, I saw Wu Fenghua's "Splitting the Mountain to Save the Mother", and for the first time I felt what is called literary and martial arts performance, and what is wenwu shuangquan.
The 7th China Arts Festival was held in Hangzhou, with Wenzhou as the sub-venue, which undertook some of the performances of the participating plays and the repertoire. "The Legend of Mulan" is an exhibition and performance of Shaoxing Xiaobaihua, and there is a fan meeting before the festival. It was at this meeting that I saw Wu Fenghua's real person for the first time.
I remember that this meeting was held in the multi-purpose hall of a hotel, hosted by the Wenzhou Art Research Institute. One of the guests on the day was Wu Fenghua and the other was Yu Weiping. One of them plays the male number one Lu Zhen, and the other plays the male number two emperor. At that time, Wu Fenghua's face had not yet been completely "poisoned" by oil paint, and her skin was still good. She only put on light makeup, both feminine and heroic, walking steps are different from Hua Dan, each step is a big step forward.
At the meeting, the fans sang the excerpt and asked Wu Fenghua to comment. After Wu Fenghua commented one by one, she sang two pieces on the spot for everyone. She very warmly beckoned everyone to go to the theater and hoped that everyone would support the Shaoxing Xiaobaihuayue Opera Troupe. However, there is a point, this art festival is not a ticket, the business model, so you can not give tickets to everyone, I hope you support the business model, develop the habit of buying tickets to enter. In order to express her gratitude, Wu Fenghua carried some of her VCDs with her and gave them to enthusiastic fans on the spot.
At that time, she was 33 years old, and she had a general demeanor. Many actors have been in the troupe for half a lifetime, and their aura is very weak. Think about it, as a pillar actor, if you don't have an aura yourself, how can you play the demeanor of the role?
Happy Peanut Day!
