Scene Three: Chen Yin was stopped by the Palace guard Han Que at the gate when the infant Zhao cried. The guard Han, who was under order to intercept, search and kill the newborn. Realizing that the cry was from the Zhao infant, now becoming an orphan, the guard decided to let them escape became infuriated. He led a thorough search of the Zhong's palace and questioned both princess Zhuang and Pu Feng. The search resulted in disappointment. Tu arrested Pu Feng for further questioning. To reach his goal, he sent a decree throughout the kingdom that if the Zhao orphan was not presented to him by 3 days, all infants born during the same period would be killed. In addition, a significant award would be given to the informant.

NYJPW Founders John & Cheng-Hua Wang have working on this production since 2001. John Wang likes the story representing for the spirit of super love and sacrifices for the royal family, the hardship of raising the orphan and the encouragement of final reunion. The rightness and truth always stands out for itself. Cheng-Hua has changed her normal singing style of Yu to New Ma style (Created and promoted by Ma Cheung Lai) and learned all the performing techniques from NYJPW Director Zhang Shu, who graduated from Beijing Opera Troupe and is the best pupil of Master Ma Cheung Lai. Cheng-Hua has tried emotionally involving herself to act as Chen Yin. It is a challenge for Cheng-Hua since she has to using body actions and facial emotional expressions in conveying the story. Cheng-Hua performs Chen Yin from age of 40 to age of 55. Cheng-Hua belives herself as the character of Chen Yin when she is on the stage. Special honorary acknowledgments are due to the producer John Wang, and to the director Zhang Shu. The latter has made extra effort in teaching Cheng-Hua Wang in the performing of Chen-Yin for over one year.

With the great pleasure, John & Cheng-Hua Wang have invited Master of New Ma Style, Ma Cheung Lai and Mrs. Ma (Siu Wong Yuk Yung) come to New York to see the performance in person. Master Ma will also receive the "Lifetime Achievement for the Arts Award" from New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, Chinese-American Arts Council and Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts. John & Cheng-Hua have invited many outstanding artists from Beijing Chinese Opera Troupe in Beijing to join this performance. Many extraordinary Chinese Opera artists at New York City will also join the performance. The production staff is more then 80 members. The brand new customs and stage props have been specially made from Beijing, Shanghai and New York. This performance represents the greatest effort that John and Cheng-Hua have put forth since the establishment of NYJPW.
