As one of the first batch of intangible cultural heritage protection projects in China, Hui Opera has a long history and unique charm, and has a deep mass foundation in Huangshan City, and is an important carrier for the expression and inheritance of excellent traditional Hui culture. This highly distinctive genre of opera has attracted much attention because of its relationship with Peking Opera.

In 2018, Huangshan City implemented the "Hui Opera Revitalization Project", while vigorously promoting the excellent traditional Chinese culture, it also jointly opened the "Hui Opera Inheritance Orientation Class" with Anhui Provincial Vocational College of Art, which has been 40 years since the last time Huangshan City concentrated on recruiting a professional team for Hui Opera inheritance. The contestants Du Jinhao and Zhu Juntao are under the age of 18, and Jin Hengyi, who served as an assistant, is only 19 years old.
The "Hui Opera Youth" cultivated by Huangshan Hui Opera Theater entered this national platform for the first time, which is of great significance for the growth of Hui Opera actors and the inheritance and development of the repertoire. Next, they will uphold their original intention, not only to create brilliance on the professional stage, but also to show their style in all kinds of small scenes, with various activities such as "Huangshan Rural Opera Festival", "Sending Culture to the Countryside", "Sending Opera to the Campus" and other activities as an opportunity to continue to sing the century-old Hui Dialect and Hui Yun.
