The development of opera is inseparable from the audience. Only by winning more audiences, especially young audiences, can we accumulate sufficient endogenous power for the sustainable development of opera art. The key to the prosperity and development of the opera industry lies in people. It is a long-term plan for the development of the opera industry to cultivate a large number of talents with both moral and artistic qualities. It is an urgent task for the development of opera to establish a creative and performing talent team and a modern management talent team with complete categories of editing, directing, acting, sound and beauty. We earnestly hope that "the majority of teachers and students will strengthen their cultural self-confidence, carry forward their fine traditions, adhere to integrity and innovation, explore the true meaning of art in teaching and learning, and forge their original intention to practice art in serving the people, so as to make new and greater contributions to the inheritance of the excellent traditional Chinese culture and the construction of a socialist cultural power". Entering the new era, Chinese opera is ushering in new development opportunities. Inherit the essence of opera and inject the connotation of the times. Chinese opera has a long history and is broad and profound. For thousands of years, opera has continued its historical context, inherited the national spirit, reflected real life, expressed nostalgia and homesickness, and was deeply loved by the people. "Grandmother singing in front of her house" has become the childhood memory of generations. Singing a few home operas is a way to express feelings and communicate with the soul. Watching and listening to operas become a part of daily life. When you enter the theater, even the simplest local stage in the country, the feeling of ceremony and interaction on and off the stage are moving. The modernization of opera is the mission given by the times and the inevitable requirement of its own development. In order to achieve good development in the contemporary era, the ancient opera art must keep pace with the times, improve the quality and upgrade, and complete the modern transformation in a higher form. From the perspective of art itself, the modernization of opera is the innovation of the art of opera. It is to achieve the creative transformation and innovative development of the art of opera by integrating the spirit of the times, modern concepts and contemporary stage performance methods on the basis of following the aesthetic and artistic laws of opera, so as to adapt to the development of the times, coordinate with the modern society, and fit in with the aesthetic appreciation of the audience. Only in this way can the opera always maintain its uniqueness, reflect the times, be rich in modernity, and become a part of the advanced culture of mankind. It should be noted that the premise of opera modernization is to respect the aesthetic spirit of opera and the aesthetic taste of the public. Drama has a distinctive Chinese cultural identity and is an important artistic carrier for Chinese culture to go global. The international tour of the Henan opera "Cheng Ying Saves the Orphan" fully proves this point. The play has been performed in many countries and regions, and is well received by audiences from different countries, different nationalities and different cultural backgrounds. This enlightens us that national opera should establish full cultural confidence, take the initiative to go to the international stage with a deeper vision and a broader mind, and speak well
