"I advise Chitose to kill the word and stop exporting..." I learned a Peking Opera libretto from Peng Linjun, a national first-class actor at the Hunan Peking Opera Protection and Inheritance Center , Chen Yiao, a post-90s anchor, called him "lack of oxygen".
Then, he followed Fan Chunyi, a national first-level performer from the Provincial Peking Opera Protection and Inheritance Center, to learn La Jinghu, and he started shouting "hands hurt" when he first started.
"Of course it will hurt, it hurts very much!" Fan Chunyi's expression remained unchanged, as if she was talking about eating a bowl of rice noodles. "Look at the grooves on my hands. We practice until the wounds blister and bleed, and calluses grow on the wounds. ."
"It is the same for learning traditional arts. Li Qunying, a master of embroidery craftsmanship from Hunan Province who is here with us today, has to learn and do her embroidery stitch by stitch. We also have to sing Peking Opera and La Jing Hu. Practice carefully little by little." Peng Linjun and Fan Chunyi said sincerely.

Behind the beautiful double-sided embroidery are years of hard work. The most basic skill of threading a needle took young Chen Yiao a while, but Li Qunying just rubbed it and threaded it. Today, she also brought a dragon robe. This excellent embroidery masterpiece will be exhibited at the Changsha Museum in September this year.
