I think Qinqiang opera is of a yellowish hue. It can be said that it is an art deeply rooted in the loess land. The roughness and desolation of Qinqiang Opera can only be truly manifested in such a vast loess landscape.

Traditional culture and youth trends don't clash in formal innovation- as seen in Black Myth: Wukong and Ne Zha: Birth of the Demon Child, which help young people worldwide appreciate traditional Chinese culture.However, due to generational aesthetic differences, youth trends favor instant gratification, while traditional art emphasizes lasting heritage.

Art has its own language. Even when we do not understand every word, we can still feel the emotions, beauty, and meaning behind a performance. Music, movement, colors,and expressions often speak more directly to the heart than words.
