Today's music scene is in question, with several scandals disturbing. For example, Zhou Wei has been criticized for inappropriate remarks, despite his claims that he has been stolen; The actions of Dai Zhicheng, Hou Yaohua and others have been criticized, but they have repeatedly called for opposition to vulgarity. However, the most eye-catching contradiction is the open and secret struggle between mainstream cross talk and non-mainstream cross talk, or the "love and kill" between Guo Degang.

And the confusion of the opera industry has also penetrated into the Peking Opera industry. Nowadays, the undercurrent of Peking Opera is surging, and there are different opinions. Envy of other people's talents is not uncommon, many Peking Opera performers are excluded from the stage, and some even switch to opera schools. This phenomenon is not an isolated case, and similar problems exist in almost every industry, and the Peking Opera industry is no exception. Why did the famous Peking Opera actor Lan Wenyun quit the stage?

Why did Zhang Huoding transfer to a drama school to teach? Why did Li Peihong move from Tianjin to Shanghai? is all because of the increasingly serious phenomenon of exclusion, which eventually led to the departure of outstanding Peking Opera performers. At the same time, some middle-aged and elderly Peking Opera performers who are advanced and whose artistic level is gradually declining continue to dominate the stage.

The development of Peking Opera art is in a difficult situation, especially the lack of young Peking Opera performers who can support the entire stage, which is a prominent problem. In addition, there is also a phenomenon of "exaggeration" in the Peking Opera industry, often exaggerating the development prospects of Peking Opera art. However, now there is a joke: "No one listens to Peking Opera outside Beijing, Tianjin and Shanghai", which can be said to be to the point.

Many Peking Opera performers are reluctant to perform in remote areas, and the theater is reluctant to arrange for them to go, which shows that the decline of Peking Opera is inseparable from the help of industry insiders.
