"The first time I saw Kunming University artist Liang Guyin perform "Farewell, Brother, Uncle," I was fascinated. The character she played Pan Jinlian is full of dramatic tension. At that time, I kept thinking about two questions - can I play this role? Is the teacher willing to teach me? Unexpectedly, Teacher Liang readily agreed to teach me "The Romance of the West Chamber". It was Zhou Yimin's first play under Liang Guyin's music studies. "The Story of a Hairpin: Meeting to Seek a Hairpin" was a play taught by her teacher Ni Hong when she was in drama school.

Now, I have a clearer goal - to act more and perform well in Kunqu opera is my lifelong career."

This year is his 20th year of studying Kunqu Opera. ""Pick Up Paintings and Call Paintings" was the first niche opera I learned. Teacher Yue Meiti taught me every word, every move, and it took almost three years. It was the first time. The challenge of "Yaguanlou" is the version taught to me by teacher Wang Kai, which cleverly combines the characteristics of the northern and southern schools. It has a solid foundation and exquisite skills. "

Yuan Jia, like Zhou Yimin and Ni Xuhao, stepped out of their comfort zone. "Broken Bridge" and "Yao Terrace" are completely 'raw dramas' for me. I used to play small and fresh dramas. This time I want the audience to see an unknown side of me. The protagonists in these three plays are all brave and do their best for their own destiny. I want to learn from them to take a brave step."

In the seventh season of "Five Sons Enrolled", Gu Haohao is one of the busiest teachers. She told Zhou Yimin to pay attention to details such as eyes and performance rhythm, "The audience today is different from before. They will be tired after listening to singing and reciting for more than two hours. So rhythm is very important."

Before the performance started on 17th, Liang Guyin helped Zhou Yimin put together the three performances. I went through the play again in detail, breaking it down and explaining how the emotions in the singing are advanced, the eyes and facial micro-expressions, and the changes in hand, eye, body, and step.
