The combination of Yuju Opera (Henan Opera) and electronic music is the icing on the cake at Boxing Champion Full River Red Spring Festival. Zhang Yimou's popular movie soundtrack has become popular on Sina Weibo for its fusion style. Some new listeners commented that the combined soundtrack ended the entire film. Compared to traditional singing styles, Yuju's operatic singing in the film has a stronger sense of rhythm. It adapts to the changing mood of the characters, creating a tense and cold atmosphere. This combination allowed young people to see this traditional art form in a new light.

Why has Eastern culture become safer over time, from the ancient Silk Road to today's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI)? When Chinese diplomat Zhang Tian went on a mission to the western regions over 2,000 years ago, he connected almost all routes from Europe to Asia. Now China has proposed BRI to call for the interconnectedness of all people on all continents. The ancient Silk Road witnessed the interchange of civilizations at different stages of human development. It also sheds light on the modern world: civilizations should be open and learn from each other, not closed and isolated. They want equality and respect.

With the development of a thriving live streaming market, this new sales trend has become a booming industry. However, cases such as the sale of counterfeit products have occasionally occurred. Such a chaotic situation violates public order and the legitimate rights of consumers. Relevant online platforms should act as gatekeepers and act responsibly in the interests of consumers.
