He was also the first artist to introduce Peking Opera to foreigners, winning international fame(名声)in the world. For half a century, Mei Lanfang was a household name in China.
Mei Lanfang began his stage life at the age of 8. His teacher said he showed little hope because of his boring eyes. To improve this,he exercised them day after day. He would fly kites and look at them moving slowly in a blue sky. He also kept pigeons in order to look at them flying higher and higher until they disappeared into the clouds. Thanks to his efforts,he managed to change his dull eyes into a pair of bright and expressive eyes and win national fame before the age of 20.
In over 50 years on the stage,Mei Lanfang played no less than 100 different characters in the
traditional Peking Opera performance(表演).He completely changed both stage make-up and costumes,and made characters' performance richer. He also wrote many new plays,designing the dances himself. They are part of the great legacy(遗赠)that he left to Peking Opera.
In 1930,Mei Lanfang started on a successful US tour. There his great performances fascinated the audience,making them realize that Peking Opera was a most valuable form of art.
