Zhang Xuejin, a descendant of Ma Pai, died of liver cancer in 2012 at the age of 71, and the Peking Opera industry lost a performing artist. Mr. Zhang Xuejin is the son of Peking Opera performance artist Zhang Junqiu, and his performances include Ma Pai's "Borrowing the East Wind", "The Orphan of Zhao", "Qing Guan's Book", "Ganlu Temple" and so on. Zhang Xuejin began to learn drama at the age of 7, and worshiped Chen Xiguang as a teacher to learn dolls. In 1949, he was admitted to the Beijing Opera School and studied under Wang Shaolou and Chen Shaowu. His performance is deeply inspired by the Ma Pai, and the singing voice integrates the two schools of "Yu" and "Ma".
Zhang Xuejin is a big man in opera, and his three marriages have aroused criticism. Zhang Xuejin's original wife was Huang Ruping, a colleague of the Beijing Opera House, Cheng Pai Qingyi, who divorced in 1985. The second marriage was a particularly sensational marriage, and it was even more surprising at the time! In the circle, it has also been called the "talent and beauty" combination and has become a "beautiful talk". Because Song Jia's first marriage was to marry the famous Peking Opera actor Zhang Xuejin, who was 21 years older than herself, Song Jia was only 21 years old when she married Zhang Xuejin.
When her daughter Zhang Chuchu was three years old, the two divorced, some people said that because Zhang Xuejin had liver disease, they infected their daughters, but the two belonged to a peaceful breakup, and after the divorce, Song Jia chose to be silent and took her daughter away to the United States, which also became the most unbearable turning point in her life. The third marriage was her own student Zhang Limin, who chose to marry Zhang Xuejin when she learned that she had liver cancer and took care of Zhang Xuejin's daily life until her death. Zhang Xuejin's life is not only very successful in art, but also the divorce of two young wives and Song Jia in his emotional life is a mystery.
