Yang Ming, one of the composers, first wrote a prototype of the theme melody, "Red Plum Blossoms on Red Rock," which triggered Jin Sha's inspiration, and based on this, he added a fluttering cantata, which was greatly expanded, compressed, flowery, and melted into some of the tandem reed tones of Jiangnan, which permeated the yangqin music of Sichuan, and formed the relatively complete "Praise of Red Plum. The theme song of "Red Plum Praise" is relatively complete.
