The style is novel, the spirit and form are both unique, the arrangement is unique, and the charm is strong, highlighting the depth and exquisiteness of Chinese culture.
Looking at the seven performances in the United States, each one had varying degrees of sensation and influence. Different from the European tour, this U.S. tour has made major adjustments in the song and dance program: the famous traditional Chinese folk song "Jasmine" was added to the singing session. The performer Yan Jin cooperated with several classmates who were accompanying the dancers, and they perfectly interpreted the beautiful artistic conception of flowing water on a small bridge, misty rain, and blooming jasmine flowers.

The actors dressed in Hanfu, against the background of Guqin music and Tai Chi showing virtuality and reality, movement and stillness, allowed the audience to appreciate the creation of Chinese calligraphy and painting throughout the whole process through the performance methods of gazing, conceiving, splashing ink, writing shapes, cursive writing and sealing. At the same time, the audience was introduced to the profound artistic conception of traditional Chinese culture, interpreted the culture and felt the charm of the culture.
