Zhang Yue was well aware of the story; he focused on Qi Shejiang on the big screen. As the story approached its climax, Xiao Yinyue delivered her ten-year swan song, “Wang Qing Yu”. Zhang Yue watched the screen and murmured, “Sometimes, I feel like you’ve simply walked out of that era…” Qi Shejiang, nestled in his arms, slowly sat up straight and said gently, “Maybe I just did?” Zhang Yue intended to laugh, but upon seeing Qi Shejiang’s expression, he paused. It was not until the audience began to weep at the protagonist’s fate that Zhang Yue returned to his senses and embraced Qi Shejiang again, with the truth or origin not mattering anymore. “What’s here is mine now; it can’t run away,” Zhang Yue whispered into his ear. . “Yuan Yang Kou” achieved success at the box office and received rave reviews, with audiences interested in various topics related to the film, including the historical prototypes of the characters. Various materials were dug up for research, comparing the performances of the actors. The musical scores by Zhang Yue and Qi Shejiang were also widely praised, with several sampled pieces from the zidi shu receiving accolades, and the theme song, before the film’s release, had already found a place in the streaming charts. This is what Qi Shejiang, as a successor, should do: revive the zidi shu in a new form that people can accept, even come to love.
He even hoped that it would not only be seen as music for traditional themes but that more people would appreciate it in its own right.
In no time at all, Qi Shejiang made his public debut as a crosstalk performer, having been collaborating with Xu Siyu for over a year and gradually passing the adjustment period, stabilizing their stage style.
At this time, Li Jing expressed the hope of organizing a solo crosstalk show for Qi Shejiang and Xu Siyu.
They planned to find a large venue in the capital. First, they would hold a solo show, and if it went well, he wanted to discuss a nationwide tour, marking it as a summary of their progress and achievements.
Qi Shejiang was willing; he and Xu Siyu already had a fair amount of work lined up, so a solo show was no problem.
As soon as this news was released, fans erupted in excitement.
