Why does China attach great importance to culture and build a strong cultural country?

Culture is the most important soft power of a country and the lasting driving force for its long-term development. To build a strong cultural country, we must develop our own culture that conforms to the trend of the times. In today's society, we must take the core socialist core values as the system, strive to develop the culture that belongs to the masses, the nation and the society, develop the culture that the people like to see and hear, and truly integrate cultural life into people's lives. China has a long history and profound culture. We have a history of 5000 years. We should take root and sprout on the basis of traditional culture and constantly create a socialist culture that keeps pace with the times. Let everyone feel the existence of their own value in socialist culture, and let everyone realize their own life value in socialist culture.

Building a cultural power is a process of self-denial. On the basis of traditional culture, we should take its essence and discard its dross, choose excellent parts with a sublation attitude and discard its dross, and innovate on the basis of inheriting traditional culture. Culture belongs to the superstructure of social stratum, and the economic base determines the superstructure. While developing a strong cultural country, we must attach importance to economic development. Only by letting the people solve the basic problems of life can they consider their spiritual world and a richer cultural life. Therefore, solving the problem of eating is a basic problem in building a strong cultural country.

The times are developing, the society is progressing, and the development of culture should also keep pace with the times. As a social consciousness, culture has certain independence. Social culture that conforms to social existence contributes to social development, while social culture that lags behind social existence hinders social development. We should take the characteristics of the times as the starting point of thinking and the needs of the public as the guide to create an advanced culture acceptable to the public.

Now it has entered the information society, and more image culture has been accepted by people. We should grasp the pulse of the times and actively guide people to establish correct cultural concepts.
