As an ugly actor, he can only play a supporting role in most plays. However, there are only small actors and no small roles on the stage. This is drama theory and drama virtue. It is with this reason and virtue that Cai Jinkun created a humble and glorious role in his later years, that is, a snob in Continued Li Jingji. The doorman is a nobody in the play with only 20 lines. Cai Jinkun, a master of Chaozhou Opera Theatre, is not shabby for a small official. He put a lot of thought into it, and even he arranged the characters' clothes properly. The appearance of the doorman gave everyone a refreshing feeling: he climbed two and a half inches thick boots, wore a short black robe, slung a knotted belt diagonally and walked out with short feet.
Cai Jinkun's most influential plays are basically villains. I told Cai Lao that he was the first Chaozhou opera actor I interviewed to play the villain. I have never dealt with "bad guys" before. He laughed it off. When he said that he was studying acting, Master taught him earnestly: "To perform, you must be honest." He also told him: "Acting is to persuade the world, and it is also a person under the shed. Do it like it, not afraid of shadows. " Cai Jinkun created a series of villains with distinctive personalities with respect for art and understanding of characters. His rigorous creative attitude and superb performance skills finally won the love and nostalgia of his peers and audiences.
In a word, Cai Jinkun said: Some of them are good, but they lack attention.
