  That night, on the occasion of the 44th World Heritage Conference being held in Fuzhou, the "Welcome to the World Genetic Context" literary and artistic boutique performance-Fujian Experimental Min Theater Youth Version of Min Opera "Double Butterfly Fan" was presented at the Fujian Min Opera Art Center in Fuzhou play.

In this show, the two "post-00" Min opera Tsing Yi rookies carefully cultivated by the Fujian Provincial Experimental Min Theater, Wen Yan and Yan Huixin, who graduated from the High School Affiliated to the Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Opera, will play the heroine Lin Mengqing and the outstanding young actor Lin Yuhui as Chen Zilin.

  According to Zhou Hong, winner of the Wenhua Performance Award, winner of the Plum Blossom Award for Chinese Theatre, and director of the Fujian Experimental Min Theater, the most important way of inheritance in the development of the art of Fujian Opera with a history of more than 400 years is "oral teaching."

  "As representatives of the new generation of Min Opera inheritors cultivated by the theater, the two rookies have previously won good results in the Fujian Provincial Drama Narcissus Award Competition and other competitions. Tonight's performance of "Double Butterfly Fan", they showed on the stage The vigor and vigor of the intangible cultural heritage of Min opera. I hope that the successors of Min opera after the 00s will keep in mind the motto of “Be the first to take the lead in virtue and bravery” on the road of art, so that the art of Min opera will be passed on from generation to generation." Zhou Rainbow said.

  Wen Yan, a rookie of Fujian Opera Tsing Yi, said frankly that he is only a fledgling newcomer to the art of Fujian Opera, and he must strive to inherit the artistic and cultural connotation of the older generation of artists, lay a solid foundation, continue to learn and accumulate, and be prepared for each presentation.

  "I am honored to be able to participate in the performance of the youth version of the Min opera "Double Butterfly Fan" during the World Heritage Convention. I am full of expectations for this performance and I will go all out to participate in it, and I hope that I will not leave any regrets." said Yan Huixin, a rookie of the Tsing Yi Min opera, before the performance.

  "Double Butterfly Fan" tells the story of a young girl Lin Mengqing and scholar Chen Zilin who had been in love since childhood.

Sudden changes forced Lin Mengqing's parents to make new choices about their daughter's marriage, so they concealed the truth from the facts and married their daughter Yi to the local squire, Wu Yushan.

The destinies of Lin Mengqing, Chen Zilin, and Wu Yushan are therefore entangled together, allowing them to face their most painful and unbearable life situations, making moral tests and emotional choices.
