That morning, melodious singing came from the Zizhong Puppet Troupe. The actors, with agile postures and elegant gaits, danced with the Zizhong puppets, demonstrating the charm of "intangible cultural heritage" and regional characteristics. Under the stands, the Neijiang Spring Festival Gala director team collectively "checked" the performance, reviewed the performance sequence, scene scheduling, actor styling, program content and other aspects, and put forward specific opinions and suggestions on improving the performance.

After the performance, Long Shihao, deputy director of the Zizhong Puppet Troupe, carefully wrote down what the directors said. ""Once Upon a Time in Zizhong" has been shortlisted for the Sichuan Stars Award of the 3rd Sichuan Arts Festival. Next, we will adjust the stage design, makeup and performance format appropriately according to the director's arrangements and actual conditions, and seize the time to rehearse and strive to be the best on the day of the performance. In this state, we send New Year blessings to the audience with high-level performances." Long Shihao said.
