The power of culture comes ultimately from the influence and appeal of what is embedded in it.

The power of culture, in the final analysis, comes from the influence and appeal of the core values condensed in it.

The power of Chinese culture is centered on the power of the spirit of the Chinese nation, which is y rooted in the Chinese culture that stretches over thousands of years.

The spirit of the Chinese nation is the spirit of advancing with the times, the unity of history and epoch, the unity of inheritance and innovation. It is always developing and advancing. At every important historical juncture of China's revolution, construction and reform, a new national spirit is birthed.

It is this national spirit that glitters with the light of the times that has created a large number of outstanding people with advanced thinking and tenacious spirit of struggle. They have been striving for the revitalization of China, promoting the development of history and national progress, and profoundly changing the face of the times. They have carried forward the distinctive spirit of the times, and lifted up the strong spine of the nation. This is the spirit and strength of a nation.

The spirit of the Chinese nation as a tradition also affects every contemporary Chinese. Any simple denial or affirmation of it will not help, the key lies in how to deal with the spirit of the Chinese nation critically. The so-called criticism is to distinguish, that is to say, to distinguish what is the essence and what is the dross, so as to remove the dross and take the essence. This is the true promotion of tradition.

While promoting tradition, we should also face the world. The intermingling of Chinese civilization and world civilization (mainly Western civilization) is an unavoidable historical destiny, so we must enrich ourselves by learning and borrowing all the fruits of human civilization. But all this is only a kind of preparation. Our aim is to establish a new Chinese national spirit. It is both Chinese and modern.
