They were considered revolutionary and modern in terms of thematic and musical features when compared with traditional Chinese operas. Many of them were adapted to film.</p><p>Originally eight revolutionary operas Chinese: Ba Ge Yangban Xi å…«ä¸ªæ ·æ¿æˆ were produced eighteen by the end of the period. Instead of the "emperors kings generals chancellors maidens and beauties" of the traditional Peking opera which was banned as "feudalistic and bourgeois" they told stories from China's recent revolutionary struggles against foreign and class enemies. They glorified the People's Liberation Army and the bravery of the common people and showed Mao Zedong and his thought as playing the central role in the victory of socialism in China. Although they originated as operas they soon appeared on LPs in comic books lianhuanhua on posters postcards and stamps; on plates teapots wash basins cigarette packages vases and calendars. They were performed or played from loudspeakers in schools factories and fields by special performing troupes. The Eight Model Operas dominated the stage in all parts of the country during these years leading to the joke "Eight hundred million people watched eight shows."</p><p>本组剧本属于文é©æ—¶æœŸçš„å…«å¤§æ ·æ¿æˆï¼Œç”±æ¯›ä¸»å¸å¤«äººæ±Ÿé’负责制作和演出。很多被æ‹æˆäº†ç”µå½±ã€‚</p><p>最åˆæœ‰å…«ä¸ªæ ·æ¿æˆï¼ŒåŽæ¥åœ¨æ–‡é©æ—¶æœŸçš„åŽæœŸå‘展到了18个。ä¸åƒå› å°å»ºå’Œèµ„产阶级的被ç¦äº†çš„ä¼ ç»Ÿäº¬å‰§ï¼Œé‡Œé¢å‡ºçŽ°çš„ä¸çš„国王大臣少女和美人，é©å‘½çŽ°ä»£äº¬å‰§ä¸»è¦è®²è¿°ä¸å›½è¿‘å¹´æ¥çš„抗战故事，宣扬人民解放军的光辉è£è€€å’Œæ¯›ä¸»å¸çš„英勇。虽然是京剧，很快就å˜æˆäº†å„ç§å½¢å¼å‡ºçŽ°åœ¨è¿žçŽ¯ç”»ã€æµ·æŠ¥ã€æ˜Žä¿¡ç‰‡ã€é‚®ç¥¨ã€é¦™çƒŸã€èŠ±ç“¶ã€æ—¥åŽ†ç‰å„ç§åœ°æ–¹ï¼Œç”¨æ‰©éŸ³å–‡å在å¦æ ¡ã€å·¥åŽ‚ç‰åœ°æ–¹ï¼Œç”±æ¼”出团进行表演。8ä¸ªæ ·æ¿æˆä¸»å¯¼äº†å…¨å›½æ‰€æœ‰çš„舞å°ï¼Œå› æ¤æœ‰äº†8亿人看8个剧的笑è¯ã€‚</p> People’s Publishing House paperback
