On the night of Gu Yu, the spring breeze ripples over Fengqi Lake. The Deqing County Grand Theater in Zhejiang Province is fully booked, and the opera "Carmen" is performing brilliantly on stage. At the end of the song, the audience paid tribute to the classic with long and enthusiastic applause and cheers. Absolutely high level! I didn't expect to see such a wonderful performance in a small county town, "said Min Xian, a 24 year old citizen of Deqing, after watching nearly three hours of performance. Last July, the Deqing Grand Theatre was put into operation, and Shi Minxian, as the first audience, watched the modern Yue opera "Deqing Sister-in-law" with many citizens. This is also an excellent work, created based on the moral model of Deqing and performed twice at the National Grand Theatre. Blessed by Mogan Mountain and Xiazhu Lake, Deqing not only possesses the beauty of mountains, countryside, and nature, but also continuously provides high-quality cultural products and services in recent years. With the help of cultural people and cultural cities, it has formed a unique and spiritual landscape. Activating traditional culture with the spirit of the times: China National Opera House Opera Troupe, China National Opera House Chorus, China National Opera House Symphony Orchestra, China National Opera House Stage Art Design and Production Center... Entering Carmen in the county, the main creative team can be called luxurious. Sending the world's classic opera "To the Countryside" is the "prelude" of the 12th Deqing Youzi Cultural Festival. This cultural festival, with the element of "wanderers", originated from a popular Tang poem. In the hands of a loving mother, the clothes of a wandering child are tightly sewn. Before leaving, one may feel afraid of returning too late. Who can say that an inch of grass and a heart can bring back the light of spring? "More than 1200 years ago, Meng Jiao wrote this poem" The Ode of a Wandering Child ", conveying the feelings of a wandering child that have moved countless people's thoughts for thousands of years. Mengjiao's hometown, Deqing, has a history of over 1800 years since its establishment as a county. The tradition of valuing literature and learning, as well as advocating virtue and kindness, has continued to this day. How to make the millennium old poem "The Ode of the Wanderer" bring greater value to the times? How to activate the vitality of excellent traditional culture with the spirit of the times? In 2004, Deqing held the first Youzi Culture Festival and proposed the concept of "Youzi Culture". Since then, Youyou's homesickness has found a home in Deqing. Through the emotional red line of "wandering culture", this small county in northern Zhejiang has attracted the attention of many "wandering people" both domestically and internationally. Jidi Maga, a famous poet and director of the Poetry Committee of the Chinese Writers Association who participated in the series of activities of this year's Youzi Cultural Festival in Deqing, believes that "Youzi Yin" is one of the most translated ancient poems in different languages so far. In fact, the poetic culture of Deqing was very profound, and Shen Yue, who was born here, as a master of classical poetry rhythm, had a profound impact on later generations in his prosody studies. The famous contemporary translator Zhao Luorui is also from Deqing. She has translated the English poet Eliot's "The Waste Land" and the American poet Whitman's "Leaves of Grass". In practical terms, in the construction process of urban culture, it may be more important to connect the most delicate and exquisite elements of traditional culture with current social life, "said Gidimaga. A poem is endless, from January to December, the Youzi Cultural Festival has evolved from a regional cultural gathering to a nostalgic feast that can radiate across the province, the country, and even the world; The participants have expanded from the business community to various fields such as literature, art, and technology, promoting a number of high-quality projects
