Teacher Li Runjie was originally named Li Yukui, and Runjie was a stage name. Li Runjie, a native of Wuqing County (now wuqing district, Tianjin), was born in a poor peasant family. 14 years old went to Tianjin as an apprentice to study the quantity of treasures. Later, he took Duan Ronghua, a famous storyteller, and Jiao Shaohai, a famous crosstalk artist, as his teacher, and later took storytelling as his career. Li Runjie devoted himself to the reform of Quyi. On the basis of several treasures, he absorbed the specialties of Taiping lyrics, Shandong sketch, storytelling, Xihe drum and cross talk, and created the art form Allegro. Many people tend to confuse Zulaibao with Allegro, but there are obvious differences between them. From the content point of view, Allegro, someone has a story, and the story is ups and downs and fascinating. Counting treasures is relatively simple. In singing, Liu used "Hua zhe", with six or seven words as the main sentence pattern. Allegro's sentence pattern is not standardized, and it can be long or short. When singing, Liu used "rising tone" and Allegro used "falling tone", which is also the main difference that the audience can find when they appreciate it.
1953, Mr Li Runjie returned to his hometown of Tianjin from Xi. At this time, his allegro art has matured. Mr. Wang Zhuo, then chairman of Tianjin Music Association, decided the name of Allegro with him. Since then, Allegro has been enriched and developed, and has gone to the whole country.
