As an important cultural event during the Beijing Winter Olympic Games, it is of great significance for the musical and dance epic "Liberation of Hainan Island" to be exhibited and performed in Beijing. It is understood that in order to perfectly present the works to the Beijing audience, according to the work schedule of the "Meet in Beijing" International Art Festival, the main creative staff led by the national first-class director Deng Lin met again in January this year. Since January 10, more than 140 main creators have gathered in Haikou to rearrange and revise in more than ten days.
