For example, in the performance of the song "city in picture", the famous painting "the picture of the river during the Qingming Festival" by Zhang Zeduan of the Northern Song Dynasty was "brought to life" through CG technology, leading the audience into the prosperous scene of Bianjing city of the Northern Song Dynasty.

After the "Tang Palace Banquet" became popular, Henan satellite TV continued to focus on traditional culture and created a series of wonderful tours of "Chinese festivals". It has successively launched the wonderful night of Lantern Festival, the wonderful tour of Qingming Festival, the wonderful tour of Dragon Boat Festival and the wonderful tour of Tanabata. According to Chen Jia, the general director, this year's "Qingming wonderful tour" continues the form of "online drama + online synthesis" created last year. At the same time, it carries out bold practice in the integration and breakthrough of "drama + film and television + variety". With the help of the segmented scene description method of "Xiyuan Yaji map", it presents multiple parallel small theaters of Qingming Festival in the form of dance, song and drama. Different from the shed presentation mode of "ancient rhyme and new sound", Qingming wonderful tour adopts the unique technique of "moving different scenes" in Chinese Oriental gardens. The crew took pictures in Henan, Jiangxi and Sichuan, while paying attention to the integration of people and scenery. For example, the song "Qingming guest" sung by Li Yugang, whose lyrics are derived from "Zhuangzi · Qi Wu Lun", also integrates the real scene shooting of landscape and countryside. In the form of song performance, "Qingming wonderful tour" also takes into account pop music and traditional folk art.

The party consists of nine programs, which are divided into four parts: preface, harmony, bloom and hope. With "spring" as the core, it tells the meaning and traditional customs of spring. The party drew on the simple and elegant visual style of the Song Dynasty, including Longjing spring tea, hangluo brocade, Yue opera, celadon instrumental music, Longquan sword spirit, maritime Silk Road and other cultural elements in the content, and covered opera, storytelling, dance and song in the form of performance. For a long time, Jiangnan in spring has exuded a different charm. Just as the poem says: the sunrise River flowers are more red than fire, and the spring river water is as green as blue. Can you not remember Jiangnan? Therefore, this program also takes live shooting as the main form. For example, in the opening program "the spring equinox is infinite", the scene switches with the dancers between buildings such as octagonal pavilion, garden wall, Longjing tea field, west lake spring scenery and so on. At the same time, "Chinese good season · spring equinox" attaches great importance to the combination with local cultural elements. Guided by Longjing tea, the women's group dance program "warm spring tea" fixed the dancers on a 4.7-meter pole and danced with four meter long water sleeves, just like smart tea, rhythmic in the tea bowl. The program "warm spring tea" was also affirmed by Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying.

From ancient agricultural civilization to modern scientific and technological civilization, the 24 solar terms permeate every place of Chinese people's clothing, food, housing and transportation. People carry out agricultural health preservation, delicious food, tea and travel in different solar terms. These three cultural programs make the traditional solar terms glow with new vitality and vitality in the new era through the forms of songs, dances and operas. Guochao has become the symbol of new popular culture, and "Art + audio-visual" has become the breakthrough point of program innovation On March 28, the State Administration of radio and television issued a notice to regard 120 programs as "key Radio and television programs in 2022". "Chinese festival" series programs and "Chinese good season" series programs with the theme of 24 solar terms have been successfully selected into the theme section of "continuing the Chinese soul". On April 7, the State Administration of radio and television announced the "radio and television innovation and excellence program in the fourth quarter of 2021", including 17 radio or television programs. Beijing Satellite TV interprets "the most beautiful Chinese opera" of opera art, Shandong satellite TV launches the "Qilu Culture Conference" of "discussing Tao in the apricot altar", and Henan satellite TV and station B jointly launched "dance Millennium" and Zhejiang satellite TV's "wonderful ink Chinese heart" focusing on calligraphy art were selected at the same time. △ Zhejiang Wei's program "wonderful ink Chinese heart" According to Baidu 2021 Guochao proud search big data, "Guochao" has increased its attention by 528% in the past decade, becoming a popular cultural symbol that has attracted much social attention and pursuit. The term "Guochao" has also expanded from the rejuvenation of a number of time-honored commodities to a brand-new Guochao life led by Chinese brands, culture and science and technology in a large country. The creation of "new national tide" represented by traditional cultural programs is becoming a "new track" for theme program innovation. Among them, "Art + audio-visual" and "national essence + science and technology" have become the main innovation breakthrough points of such programs, which are mainly reflected in the grafting of diversified art and traditional culture, as well as the integration of stage performance and TV media. For example, Zhejiang satellite TV's "wonderful ink Chinese heart" skillfully combines the art of calligraphy with the humanistic story behind it, and presents it through stage performance. In the last episode of this program, singer Li Yugang sang the song "falling ink" and brought a "five Body Book cross-border fashion show" with the students of China Academy of fine arts. If 2021 is the "year of fighting" of "Guochao" program, 2022 will be the "year of outbreak" of the innovative development of "Guochao" program. In order to make cultural programs have both cultural value and communication significance, the program producers focus on the themes of opera, Tang poetry and Song Ci, traditional wedding, national tide and domestic goods, and make different attempts in artistic expression, narrative mode and reception experience. In the process of inheriting traditional culture, these programs not only combine different music types, but also find an appropriate way of expression for the presentation of Tang poetry and Song Ci through music. For example, Oriental satellite TV's "national rhyme has a new trend" chooses to integrate traditional opera, intangible cultural heritage and other arts with contemporary diversified popular culture for cross-border literary and artistic competition. As the first reality show to compose Song Ci, Beijing Satellite TV's "looking for butterflies and flowers" is committed to making Song Ci a popular song hummed by the whole people. Local
