STORYLINE:
SOUNDBITE 1 (English): LAURA DELLA CORTE, Italian vlogger
"Welcome to today's special interview. We are here in the Eternal City Rome. We are going to meet master Wang, and he is going to talk about the "Bian Lian", that is the art of face-changing in Sichuan Opera, and we are going to discover this ancient art with him. Stay tuned.
Hi, master Wang, nice to meet you. So what brings you here in Rome to show us the "Bian Lian"?
SOUNDBITE 2 (Chinese): WANG JIAQI, Face-changing performer
"Thank you. In 2018, I started to learn face-changing by chance in China. After coming to Italy, I found that many people here are very interested in it. Through watching the performances, they become more interested in Chinese culture and hope to go to China to see more performances like this. The exchanges between China and Italy have a long history. Over 700 years ago, Marco Polo visited China. So, I hope to do something meaningful with my ability. Art has no borders, and I hope to let more people see "Bian Lian" in the future."
SOUNDBITE 3 (English): LAURA DELLA CORTE, Italian vlogger

"Okay, let's go!"
SOUNDBITE 5 (English): LAURA DELLA CORTE, Italian vlogger
"Discovering the art of "Bian Lian" was very interesting and fascinating, and we discovered the depth of storytelling of it. And also, we have a piece of the ancient art of Sichuan Opera that is now alive in the heart of Rome. So, it's very interesting. Thank you for staying with us. Bye bye."
