Summary:
Senior brother Li Kun advertised during Peking Opera performances. Junior brother Hou Guangzhi felt that Li Kun insulted the stage, and the two parted ways because of their disagreement. Five years later, Li Kun made a fortune by playing Sun Wukong. Hou Guangzhi became the Sun Wukong professional in the troupe. Li Kun contacted a business but needed Hou Guangzhi's help. Hou Guangzhi agreed to let Li Kun meet the client, Boss Ma. Boss Ma was recently obsessed with an internet celebrity and was going to arrange a play for her called "The True and False Monkey King Beats the White Bone Demon". Because this violated the tradition of Peking Opera, Hou Guangzhi angrily refused. Li Kun stole the costumes of their ancestor and signed the contract. The angry Hou Guangzhi broke up with Li Kun again. But when Hou Guangzhi saw that his apprentices were trying hard to attract customers, he finally agreed to perform. On the day of the audition, Hou Guangzhi came on stage in a chic manner, and Li Kun's passion for Peking Opera was awakened by Hou Guangzhi. He cooperated with Hou Guangzhi to speak the original lines of the play. The two performed a traditional version of "The True and False Monkey King" together. At this moment, everyone felt the charm of Peking Opera.
