This paper explores the characterization of Xiang Yu depicted from the Ming's Chuanqi script Qian-Jin-Ji to Qing's selected drama script Zhui-Bai-Qiu. In this study, the opposing plot between Xiang Yu and Han Xin in Qian-Jin-Ji is first organized. Then it is followed by the characterization of Xiang Yu tracing back from Shi-Ji to Shan-Ben Drama Series. Finally, Zhui-Bai-Qiu is selected as to highlight the inheritance and variation from Qian-Jin-Ji.This paper concludes that:First, Xiang Yu Guan-mu mainly resulted from the concentration of intensive layout of Xiang Yu's dramatic turning point, to rise from misfortune in Qian-Jin-Ji.Second, Xiang Yu Guan-mu is mostly portrayed as the powerful king image adapted from Shi-Ji, which has influenced the audience's positive image of Xiang Yu.Third, Xiang Yu Guan-mu stemmed mainly from the replacement of Xiang Yu for Han Xin in the selected Qian-Jin-Ji out of Zhui-Bai-Qiu, dating back from the middle Ming Dynasty to the Qing Emperor Qianlong. That Han Xin Kuan-mu is retained can be sourced from Bei-Za-Ju, which indicates that the content of Han Xin Kuan-mu is inferior to that of Xiang Yu Guan-mu.Zhui-Bai-Qiu presents Xiang Yu as an unshakable king characterized as the tragic hero. Jing plays Xiang Yu and performs on stage with the affection with Yu Ji.
