Pudong storytelling, also known as cymbal books, Shanghai books, peasant books and so on. Pudong pays equal attention to both storytelling and singing, pays attention to plot, and has a fast rhythm. The most representative traditional songs are Shigong Case and Baogong, etc.
Pudong storytelling originated in Pudong, Shanghai, and spread all over the suburbs of Shanghai and Pinghu City, Zhejiang Province. On June 14, 2008, the "Pudong Talk" declared by Shanghai Pudong New Area was approved by the State Council to be included in the second batch of national intangible cultural heritage catalogue, project number V-59.
Historical evolution
Pudong storytelling is a cymbal book, which is divided into "small book" and "big book". Pudong storytelling, which also talks, sings and beats with cymbals, is generally called "small book"; Pudong storytelling, which only talks and does not sing, is called "big book", also known as Shanghai book and Shanghai commentary.
Pudong storytelling originated from the propaganda of Buddhist doctrine of cause and effect. Living in Pudong, the singing instructor knocked cymbals and used Pudong language, voice, intonation, self-attack, self-talk and self-singing. The content of Pudong storytelling was Buddhist law and scripture. Its melody not only gathered Pudong's folk songs, field songs, salt songs, fishing songs, but also integrated the lotus originated from Buddhist music. As a result, Pudong storytelling was initially called "Saying Cause and Effect" or "Cause and Effect Book". Up to now, Chongming and Pudong storytelling spreading to Pinghu, Jiaxing and other places in Zhejiang are still called "Cause and Effect Book".
At the beginning of the 20th century, Picture Daily in Guangxu Period once contained "Saying Cause and Effect Painting" and inscribed the oil poem "Knocking on Cymbals to Say Cause and Effect, Oral singing will also do gestures, many people listen to and laugh fans, just to speak the local dialect clearly". It can be seen that Pudong storytelling has attracted a lot of audiences at the beginning, its performance environment is not in the teahouse, but in the streets and alleys; in the thirty-second year of Qing Guangxu (1906), the stone-printed version of "Shanghai and Jiang Commercial Market Ci" written by Yian's master recorded: "Tea Lai every storyteller, mirage of the sea market, a chat with each other, eavesdropping to listen. It proves that the environment of "storytelling" had entered the small teahouse at that time; the props of "one fan, one ou" show that the props of Pudong storytelling have been added; the words "idle and eager to listen" tell the audience a lot. According to Chuansha Records in 1936, there was a Pudong Storytelling Bookstore in Gaoqiao Town during the reign of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty; Sanzao Town Records in Pudong recorded that in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, "some spacious tea gardens in Sanzao Town invited those who sing cymbals to open up a new bookstore for tea-fetching guests"; Zhou Pu Town Records said, "This kind of rap and singing was particularly prevalent." Before the War of Resistance Against Japan, there were similar records of Pudong stories in Kangqiao Town Chronicle, Pengzhen Town Chronicle, Tanzhi Town Chronicle and Sandun Town Chronicle.
From the pedigree of the old artists'memory, Pudong storytelling began in the five to sixteen years of Qingdaoguang (1825-1836), and its founder was Gu Xiuchun.
In 1932, there were two Shanghai Book Clubs in Pudong. One is called "Datuan Kaizhi Society". It is located in Datuan Town, Nanhui County; one is called "Shanghai Yongyu Society", which is located in Yangjing Shunfeng Tea Garden, Chuansha County. At that time, Pudong storytellers occupied most of the tea garden bookstores in Pudong, and performed in the old city chamber of Puxi from time to time. After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, both organizations were disbanded because of the war.
After the founding of New China, Shanghai Shanghai Shanghai Books Improvement Association was established; Shanghai Pudong Books Performing Team was established in 1958 when Pudong County was established; when Pudong County was abolished in 1961, it was renamed Shanghai Pujiang Shanghai Books Team when it was transferred to the southern urban area; in 1978, Shi Chun was appointed to rebuild Pudong Storytelling Organization, and in May 1979. Shanghai Chunjiang Shanghai Bookstore was established, and in 1987 all the Shanghai Chunjiang Shanghai Bookstore were transferred to business. Since then, the professional performance group of Pudong storytelling has ceased to exist.

Pudong storytelling is performed in Pudong dialect, accompanied by cymbals, with waking wood, folding fans and handkerchiefs as auxiliary props. The traditional form of performance is usually singing by sitting alone. The performers wear long clothes. The performers begin to sing four poems or lyrics with bamboo chopsticks on cymbals. Then they sing the first part of the performance, and then they say the original part. At the beginning of the performance, they also sing a paragraph. The main part of the performance is talking, sometimes interluded. After liberation, after reform, string accompaniment was added, and the forms of group singing and performance singing appeared.
