This is the first c-drama where I can honestly give 10 points.

A beautiful story about friendship, brotherhood, loyalty, devotion to two very different personalities. Cheng Feng Tai is an apparently mild-mannered businessman, devoted to his family, but cunning and ruthless in business. Shang Xi Rui is a charismatic, himerous, very talented Dan performer in Beijing opera performances. He is also an inept financial manager of an art troupe. Both gentlemen will share their mutual curiosity. Gradually they get to know each other and get to know life, opera, finance and a different view of the world. In the background we have the growing Japanese-Chinese conflict, which, as we know, ultimately took a tragic toll in history. The fates of people intertwine in this drama and interpenetrate each other. Nothing is overdrawn, each thread has a logical connection and termination. But for me personally, it is a completely Chinese drama which is its great advantage. Finally, I do not have the impression that I am watching bits of American movies stuck into Chinese reality. It gives me an insight into the world of Chinese opera so distant and mysterious for a European. The world is a bit inaccessible, incomprehensible, but so intriguing. And that singing, sometimes melorecitation. I was slowly discovering the art of singing in this way. Finally, without pompous words and assurances, paradoxically, despite the sometimes slow pace, a lot is happening. There are no superfluous flashbacks here, so common and unnecessary in Chinese dramas
Chapeau bas for acting. First place for Zheng Yin who breathed so much into the himeric character of SXR. For me it will be an unforgettable acting performance. He plays with his whole self, he is created just for this character.
The other actors, I won't name them all, I will mention Huang Xiao Ming and Charmaine Sheh, were great. These characters are persuasive, they live, they evolve.
Music is as it should be. Accompanied by drama, not annoyingly insistent, but supportive.
I will definitely see it someday, I can still feel the atmosphere.
