How do the Japanese view Fukuzawa Yukichi?

There is no shortage of such people in China, such as Lin Zexu and Wei Yuan. Why is Fukuzawa Yukichi's influence on Japanese history more obvious than that of China? As far as Fukuzawa Yukichi is concerned, he deeply felt the huge gap between Japan and Asia and the West. He believed that the West had entered a civilized society at that time, while Japanese and China were at best semi-civilized societies. He traveled to the west and asked for books to awaken the Japanese, so that they could learn from the west and step into the ranks of civilized countries. The deeper reasons should be explained from the cultural aspects of China and Japan. Japan is a small country, which has been playing the role of a student for a long time, learning from other countries or nations, so it has formed a "fickle" national character, which is easy to accept foreign things and has little resistance; China and Japan are just the opposite. Therefore, Japan quickly accepted western civilization and became an Asian power.
