In 1984, Fukuzawa Yukichi pointed out the drawbacks of learning from the West during the Qing Dynasty.

Japanese Fukuzawa Yuyoshi once said, "To learn from the European civilization, we must fix the difficult things before the easy things, first change the hearts and minds of the people, then change the decrees, and finally reach the tangible material ------If the order is reversed, it may seem to be easy, but in fact, it does not make sense."

Modern Chinese learning from the West is a deepening process. This process with the western powers of China's aggression step by step to expand, the national crisis gradually deepened and the gradual development of China's capitalism course. The process of learning from the West went from shallow to deep. Liang Qichao summarized it as "first from the sense of artifacts, then from the sense of system, and then from the sense of culture". Chen Duxiu summarized it as three stages: "academic enlightenment", "political enlightenment" and "theoretical enlightenment". The road of learning from the West did not go through, and history chose the road of Marxism and socialism. Marxism is the only correct weapon that the advanced Chinese people have found from the West to solve the problems of China after a long practical struggle.
