As a non-hereditary inheritor of the Qi sect, Jin Jing created and filmed the Yue opera film "The Legend of the White Snake" based on the Qi Yaxian version of the play of the same name in 2012, and made bold innovations based on traditional opera music.
Jin Jing, who has been an artist for 40 years, regards the inheritance and dissemination of yue opera qi pai art as her own responsibility, and she sighs: "In the past 20 years, because our Jing'an Yue opera troupe has ceased to exist, doing anything feels that things are counterproductive, and people are more tired. But although there are many difficulties, as an inheritor, you need to practice it in a down-to-earth manner. If you don't have the funds, you will pay for it yourself, and if you don't have the team, you will bring your own funds to the brother troupe, and you will make classic art into a movie and keep it forever. ”
