"Have you heard that there was a girl who once came here and walked through this reed slope? Why are the white clouds crying quietly, why are the wind whispering, and a group of red-crowned cranes flying gently... " The girl in the song, together with the red-crowned cranes that are closely associated with her, crossed the Qiongzhou Strait and came to Hainan with The Crane Calling performed by the artists of National Ballet of China. On January 14th, another performance of The Crane Calling showed the magnificent picture of harmonious coexistence between man and nature again on the stage of Hainan Centre for the Performing Arts.
