This lecture was jointly organized by w88 casino library, Academic Affairs Office and the Seventh Branch of Chaoyang District of the Kuomintang Revolutionary Committee.
For an opera performing artist, the stage is undoubtedly the space where the charm of his performance blooms, that is, the "first space", and the so-called "second space" refers to the living space outside the stage performance. In this lecture, Director Liu Zhen focused on the three main places of residence of Mr. Mei Lanfang - Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong, allowing the audience to get closer to the story of "the other Mei Lanfang" behind the art.
Beijing Liyuan, nurtures life
The five characters "Birthplace of Peking Opera" are engraved on the stone on Tieguai Lixie Street outside Beijing's Qianmen, which tells future generations that this is the foundation of the Liyuan family surnamed Mei. Liu Zhen said that the distance between Mr. Mei's birthplace in Beijing and the residence of Tan Xinpei, one of the famous "Thirteen Wonders of Tongguang", is only 100 meters. Influenced by this strong pear garden atmosphere, Mei Lanfang became famous as a young boy.19At the age of 18, he became a legend with his opera "Mukezhai". Behind the pinnacle of artistic attainments, the Mei family's former residence in Beijing and No. 5 Apartment in Wuliang Master Hutong are indispensable, and "Zhui Yuxuan" is Mr. Mei's favorite place in Apartment No. 5. Mei Lanfang cultivated his temperament and brewed creations among the pavilions as the "master of Zhu Yuxuan". As a "civilian diplomat", he interacted with leaders from all walks of life and talked and laughed with scholars. Wherever the talented people come, they all witness the most glorious period of Mr. Mei’s artistic career.

At the end of the lecture, Director Liu Zhen gave an answer to the question raised by Bai Yanru of the International Business w88 casino: "Peking opera art is too elegant, how should we appreciate it?": Peking opera art itself has great aesthetic value, and is elegant in its vulgarity. It not only absorbs the elegance of spring and snow in the official tune of Kun Opera, but also absorbs the popularity of local operas in folklore. As long as you are willing, you will definitely feel the charm of Peking opera.
This cultural lecture lasted for more than two hours. The audience had a deeper understanding of Mr. Mei Lanfang’s “Second Space” and expressed that they had benefited a lot. The lecture ended successfully with warm applause.
