　　On the one hand, "The Bride Surrounded by the Head" is able to dig out some of our own rich artistic assets, and then according to the director's requirements, for example, "new" has roots, and in novelty we can find our roots. , The traditional root vein.

So on the one hand, we are pursuing, such as our stage style, our actor performance, our costume show, etc. We all have some new ideas.

But our performance is to activate it in the elements of this traditional Gaojia drama.

　　Costume dramas have a lot of stylized things, and they are more freehand, more aesthetic, and pictures. Modern dramas tend to be more life-like things, and they cannot contain too many stylized things.

Because after too many stylized things are in, people will jump into the show, and he will not have that kind of empathy.

Modern drama is to be more empathetic, to have something more direct with the audience that resonates with them, and then to change more in the body.

Then it is quite challenging.

After the publication of the "Report to Compatriots in Taiwan" in 1979, with the resumption of cross-strait exchanges, the geographical relationship changed and the business relationship led to the marriage relationship.
