Reintroducing traditional culture
引入传统文化
In Luoyang, Gao Bingzhu (Chinese actor Huang Xuan), a young man low on the totem pole of society, is searching for the murderer who killed his friends five years ago when he becomes a suspect in a new case.
在洛阳，社会地位低下的年轻人高炳柱(中国演员黄轩饰)成为了一起新案件的嫌疑人，他正在寻找5年前杀害朋友的凶手。
As Gao tries to prove his innocence by finding the real criminal, he meets Baili Hongyi (Wang Yibo) and Wu Siyue (Song Qian), who are from the noble class. The three unite together for different reasons to accomplish the same goal - arrest the rebels, who are trying to overthrow the emperor, and protect Luoyang.
在寻找真凶的过程中，高晓松遇到了贵族出身的白礼弘义(王一波饰)和吴思悦(宋倩饰)。三个人出于不同的原因团结在一起，为了同一个目标——逮捕企图推翻皇帝的叛乱分子，保护洛阳。
As the three leads track down and chase after criminals and rebels, the scenic sights of the capital are rolled out for audiences at the same time. The scriptwriters Qing Mei and Wu Cong told the Global Times that the chase and fight scenes naturally take audiences on a tour of the ancient Luoyang the production team has restored on screen.
"I do not like using special effects," Xie said.
随着三位主角追捕罪犯和叛乱者，首都的风景也同时呈现在观众面前。编剧青梅和吴丛在接受《环球时报》采访时表示，电影中的追逐和打斗场景自然会让观众来到制作团队恢复到银幕上的古代洛阳。
“我不喜欢使用特效，”谢说。
"Most of the buildings, streets and rooms of the lead roles shown on screen were really built before the drama began filming."
The props on display have stunned audiences since the series' made its debut.
银幕上主角的大部分建筑、街道和房间都是在开拍前建造的。”
自该剧首播以来，展出的道具就令观众大为震惊。
Gao's bed is a coffin to show the depression caused by deep hatred his character feels, and Baili's room is surrounded by a small stream as this shows her completely unrestrained personality.
高的床是棺材，表现了他的角色因深深的仇恨而感到的压抑，而柏丽的房间被一条小溪环绕，表现了她完全无拘无束的个性。
By presenting a string of stories from the Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368), from The Orphan of Zhao, a revenge play often called the Chinese Hamlet, to the craftsmanship behind Tang Dynasty (618-907) three-color glazed pottery, Dancing Through the Millennium has been "trying to extract all kinds of intriguing stories and the spiritual core of a classical culture that has been handed down for thousands of years in China," Jiang said.
通过展示从元朝(1279-1368)到被称为中国哈姆雷特的复仇剧《赵氏孤儿》的一系列故事，到唐朝(618-907)三彩陶艺背后的工艺，蒋方舟说，《穿越千禧年》一直“试图从中国流传了数千年的古典文化中提取各种有趣的故事和精神核心”。
Myths and legends are also source of inspiration for the show. The solo dance "Fire" depicts the story of a little girl who was afraid of fire the first time she sees it, but then takes on the mission of protecting fire for the sake of all human beings and finally merges and becomes one with it."This dance is taken from the worship of fire by humans in ancient times," said Jiang.
神话和传说也是该剧的灵感来源。独舞《火》讲述了一个小女孩第一次看到火时害怕火，但为了全人类而承担起保护火的使命，最终与火融为一体的故事。
江说:“这一舞蹈源于古代人类对火的崇拜。”
True to history
还原历史
The production crews for the two shows have worked hard to ensure what is presented on screen is as authentic as possible.The Luoyang Wenbao Group, mainly responsible for protecting the ruin sites in Luoyang and constructing cultural parks, told the Global Times that they introduced the architecture in the ancient capital to the production team of Luoyang and organized exchanges and discussions between experts in the history of the city.
这两部剧的制作团队一直在努力确保屏幕上呈现的内容尽可能真实。洛阳文宝集团主要负责保护洛阳遗址和建设文化公园，他们告诉《环球时报》，他们向洛阳的制作团队介绍了古都的建筑，并组织了古城历史专家之间的交流和讨论。
Meanwhile, the director of Dancing Through the Millennium said that they pored over massive amounts of Chinese literatures and documents to find descriptions of these works and dances because none knew how ancient people danced and dressed.
与此同时，《穿越千禧年》的导演表示，他们仔细研究了大量的中国文献和文件，寻找这些作品和舞蹈的描述，因为没有人知道古人是如何跳舞和穿着的。
At the beginning, the team was not that certain how such high-level art would be received by the mass TV audience.
一开始，团队并不确定这样高水平的艺术会如何被广大电视观众接受。
"We were worried because people who are interested in this kind of thing usually buy tickets to the theater to appreciate it. We were not sure that the show would be successful or not," said Jiang.
“我们很担心，因为对这类东西感兴趣的人通常会买票去电影院欣赏。我们不确定这个节目会不会成功。”

但这些传统舞蹈不应该永远藏在剧院里。只要我们做得好，观众也会花钱在电视上看到他们。”
