What is cultural self-confidence

Cultural self-confidence needs to have the ability of independent innovation, constantly promote the development of cultural innovation and create more cultural products and cultural symbols with national characteristics.

Confidence in "cultural confidence"

We have a profound and excellent traditional culture. It can "enhance the backbone and confidence of China people", is our deepest cultural soft power, is the mother of our cultural development, and accumulates the deepest spiritual pursuit of the Chinese nation. Such as the spirit of self-improvement, patriotic feelings of loyalty to the country, the sense of responsibility of "every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world" and the spirit of sacrifice of "giving up one's life for justice".

The innovative concept of "innovation", the public morality consciousness of "helping the poor" and the value concept of "forgetting the family for the country and the public and the private" have always been the spiritual driving force for the Chinese nation to make progress. Coupled with the social ideal of "harmony between man and nature" and "the world is public", the concept of governing the country based on the people, and the sense of urgency of "carrying a boat without overturning it" and "being prepared for danger in times of peace".

The peaceful thoughts of "military strategists strive for each other" and "harmony without difference", the way of treating others "be kind to others" and "don't do to others what you don't want them to do to you", the governance thoughts of "combining Confucianism and law" and "complementing morality and punishment", and the oriental wisdom of "harmony is precious" and "harmony without difference" have always been the ideological sources of Chinese national governance.

Even the concept of "well-off" in the well-off society we are striving to build comes from the Book of Rites, which is the ideal social state pursued by the Chinese nation since ancient times.
