On July 30, the Chaozhou opera "Ode to Qiaopi" (Qiaopi refers to correspondence and remittance documents from overseas Chinese), performed by the undergraduate class of Chaozhou Opera at the National Academy of Chinese Theatre Arts, was aired on the CCTV Opera Channel.

The "Ode to Qiaopi" uses the Chaoshan area, the Seven Seas, and Malaysia as its narrative settings, making "Qiaopi" an emotional thread that runs throughout the entire play. As the graduation performance of the first undergraduate class in Chaozhou Opera at the National Academy of Chinese Theatre Arts, the "Ode to Qiaopi" explores how Chaozhou Opera is both inherited and reinterpreted in a contemporary context. With this broadcast of "Ode to Qiaopi" on CCTV, Qiaopi culture has been promoted and the art of Chaozhou opera is being carried forward on a larger stage. At the same time, it injects greater impetus into innovative approaches in cultivating talent for Chaozhou opera.
