Wang Wensheng, who was awarded the annual Golden Arts Award, said that when he was a child, he went to a classmate's house and saw a classmate who was born in a scholarly family. Even though he was old, he could still tell the story of his great-grandfather. "In the future, we must let our descendants have ancestors to be proud of." From a young age, he followed his father in puppet show performances. Although his family was poor, he didn't feel it was hard because of his interest. Later, with his father's encouragement, he took over the burden of passing on the puppet show. He is even more committed to innovation. In his nearly 60 years of performing arts career, he has not only devoted himself to the starring skill of "discrimination of five tones", but also studied various skills such as sculpture, performance, screenwriting, and musical instrument performance. In the future, we will continue to inherit the puppetry culture.
