In March 1936, Mei Lanfang suddenly received the telegram from Chaplin, and the content was: to come to China, and he was willing to stay in Shanghai. Mei Lanfang is very happy and packed up with the "Meihua Poetry" of the guests often receiving the guests, and prepares the beauty of the fragrance, welcoming the internationally renowned art master.
