"The farthest distance in the world is not between life and death. It is when I am by your side and you are playing with your mobile phone."

It also uses "silk" as a carrier to connect the story. The context of the development and the mental journey of the protagonist's growth.

In terms of artistic expression,"The Sound of the Silk Road" combines multiple art forms, not only music, dance, puppets, acrobatics, martial arts, etc., but each art form also contains many elements. For example, dance performances include not only modern dance, There are also classical dances that crossed the Han Dynasty, dances from countries in the Western Regions, etc.

The entire performance was full of modern fashion and retained the essence of traditional Chinese art.
