In Dingxi Shaanxi Opera Troupe, Kang Jianhai was affirmed and supported by Party Xiaoping. When he went to perform in Tianshui, Kang Jianhai even performed for four days in a row. He sang "Beating Town Taiwan", "Putting Rice", "Two Houses" and "Golden Beach". Later, Kang Jianhai joined Tianshui Qinqiang Opera Troupe, and won the affirmation and praise of the troupe leaders and peers with his acting skills. Golden Beach, Putting Rice, Killing the Temple, Playing Town Station, Xiahedong and other plays have become Kang Jianhai's best plays, and they have also become his must-perform plays every time he goes to the countryside.
Kang Jianhai often thinks: Although Shaanxi Opera is very popular in Gansu, it does not have a good platform to show the elegance of actors, and its acting skills are limited to a circle. 1998, Xi 'an Youth Shaanxi Opera Art Troupe was established, and its head Fan Yunzhe found Kang Jianhai. After nearly 1 year's efforts, Kang Jianhai gave up everything that Tianshui had and came to Xi 'an, and entered the Shaanxi Opera Research Institute, which is known as the "highest institution of northwest opera" at the end of 20001year.
From mid-June, 5438 to October, 2003/KLOC-0, the famous composer xiaosong Qu went to northern Shaanxi to collect folk songs and passed by Xi 'an. He happened to see Kang Jianhai's "Lower Hedong" in the teahouse, and was deeply moved by the rough and bold, vigorous and melodious Shaanxi opera at that time. Kang Jianhai never imagined that this "encounter" provided him with a broader space for development, and also made him the first person to perfectly integrate China traditional Shaanxi opera with western modern opera. In March, 2004, Xiaosong Qu came to Xi again accompanied by Sabrina, the director of the drama "Zhuang Zhou tries his wife". German female directors couldn't believe that "Zhao Kuangyin" in front of him was the best candidate for "wizard" in Zhuang Zhou's "Wife Trial" when he watched Kang Jianhai's "Driving a Car" in Lower Hedong, and immediately discussed with the cast to let Kang Jianhai play the role of wizard. A few days later, Kang Jianhai and Xiaosong Qu boarded a flight to Germany. After arriving in Munich, the whole crew immediately plunged into intense rehearsal. Speaking of the rehearsal process at that time, Kang Jianhai still had a lingering fear. "The first rehearsal, I couldn't keep up with the rhythm. From the eyes of the conductor, I can see his doubts about my strength. I was really guilty at the time. " After the rehearsal, Kang Jianhai found Xiaosong Qu and said that he would not go to the performance. Xiaosong Qu angrily criticized him and said, "You have been singing Shaanxi Opera for so many years, why can't you sing a play?" ? Art is interlinked. Just sing according to Qin opera! "After several days of vocal skills training, Kang Jianhai gradually mastered the vocal methods of western opera. Many things happen, and the premiere of the modern opera "Zhuang Zhou tries his wife" in Munich was a great success. After the performance, the audience surrounded Kang Jianhai and asked for autographs and photos. Even foreign conductors gave thumbs up and said in authentic Chinese, "Great!" At this point, Kang Jianhai is more excited and emotional than gratified. Because he won face for the Shaanxi Opera. Subsequently, Zhuang Zhou tried his wife twice in Munich and four times in Berlin, which was well received by all walks of life. "Seven performances were sold out, and I will never forget that scene. "The performance abroad for more than two months not only broadened Kang Jianhai's knowledge and vision, but also made his singing scientific and reasonable. After returning to Xi 'an, Kang Jianhai collapsed and lost 10 kg.
