Ask for a couple of literary works about Chinese creativity and the loss of traditional culture.

This one should be what you want. In it, he talks a lot about China's shortcomings in automobile, airplane, and computer manufacturing.

Mr. Yao Guohua's series of masterpieces, "Humanistic Reflections and Cultural Strategies of Globalization" (the first volume, "Culture as a Nation", and the second volume, "University Reconstruction"), in which he has accumulated most of his life's thinking and five years of hard work, offer deep thoughts on China's future with the profundity of a philosopher and the courage of a thinker.

On February 10, 1900, Liang Qichao wrote the masterpiece "Young China Speaks," which stirred up a generation of Chinese people, "When the youth is strong, the country is strong; when the youth is rich, the country is rich." Today, Liang Qichao had hoped that the young people have the hope, enterprising, new, break the mold, good fun, full of energy, bold, make the world, "always thinking about the future", "always realize that everything is not impossible" temperament are vaguely seen in this generation. However, the price is that the Chinese traditions in them are getting thinner and thinner, the characteristics and individuality in them no longer exist, and the Chinese flavor is faint and unheard of. Where can we find our lost traditions? How can we write a "New Teenage China," not just "Teenage Globalization"?

Loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, righteousness, faith, wisdom and courage What is loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness? What is Faith, Rites, Wisdom and Courage? The only way to see them now is to look at street signs on the streets of Taipei. The order of things that we have to maintain in the way of the "king, the minister, the minister, the father, the son" is no longer coming back, and it also cuts us off from the "loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness". "Faith, courtesy, wisdom and courage" is at least a philosophy of survival and basic requirements common to all societies, but we have grafted on Western values, and under the shell of Confucianism's words, the connotation is no longer there. The ancients used to regard moral cultivation as the ultimate pursuit of life, but in today's globalized world, personal struggle, happiness and freedom are more important than morality; today's children have a lot of other things to do.

The four books and five sutras Once upon a time, as a scholar who had to know the four books and five sutras by heart before the age of 15, almost all of them were group "bible worshipers" whose knowledge of the classics was enough to make today's doctoral students in ancient literature despair. 19 January 1912, when the first chief education officer of the national government decreed When the first Chief Education Officer of the National Government decreed that "the reading of the Bible in primary schools should be abolished," it was a feat of emancipation; as a consequence, nearly a century later, not many people can answer what the Four Books and Five Classics are anymore. Children are confused about the pillar system of thought in ancient China represented by the University, the Meanwhile, the Analects, and the Mencius; the I Ching, the Shang Shu, the Book of Poetry, the Book of Rites, and the Zuo Zhuan. Now, Shu Yi has founded a modern private school in Beijing that specializes in teaching the Four Books and Five Classics.

What is the spirit of chivalry? It is "the way of the road, although ten million people I go; righteousness when, a thousand gold scattered no regrets; love of the bell, the world's laws and rituals such as dirt; Xing's place, with you drink 300 cups of pain"; it is "ten steps to kill a person, thousands of miles do not leave the line. After the matter whisks the clothes away, deep hiding body and name. Three cups of spit RanNuo, five mountains down for light. Even if I die, I will not be ashamed to be a hero in the world." It was Jing Ke, Nie Zheng, Quan Zhi, Li Bai, the floating mother who gave her a meal, the fisherwoman who saved Wu Zixu. But today they are all scattered in the wind. There is no longer a man who traveled thousands of miles to make a promise to a friend, and there is no longer a woman who "will rest her life to make you happy today". Gao Xiaosong wrote this in the text of his "Youth Without Regrets". Since I was a child, I have been taught to take care of myself and not to trust others, so how can I be impetuous and heroic? How can you have a style that is free and easy? There has never been a young and frivolous, youth is incomplete youth, read more Jin Yong Gu Long also does not matter.

People have responsibilities Responsible for the family, responsible for the clan, responsible for the country and the nation, responsible for the invisible and unknowable social atmosphere ...... This is the ancient shoulder N big mountain. And today, we have neither the obligation to devote ourselves to others nor the right to demand from others, but can only be responsible for ourselves. University" said at the beginning of the "ancient desire to be clear virtue in the world" in today's mirror become a watery moon, Gu Yanwu's "national prosperity and demise, the responsibility of the people" in peacetime is more like an empty talk. So, we insist on not growing up, reading Japanese comics, listening to Twins, playing PUPA or Hello Kitty, wearing wide-legged pants full of pockets, the slogan is "I like, what can not"...... aggressive flood of freedom, so that the sense of responsibility The first time I saw this, I was in the middle of a long journey, and it was a long time ago. And the ten-year-old set of children, the ears and eyes of this generation is indulgent, infinitely prolonged adolescence, how will they know what the sense of responsibility is?

Poetry If the children of the 1990s were exposed to the beauty of classical poetry only through Jay Chou's "East Windbreak," isn't that a bit late? There are 42,863 poems in All Tang Poetry, 19,990 poems in All Song Lyrics, more than 900 poems by Li Bai, and more than 6,000 poems by Lu You, and that's just a tiny fraction of the poems and songs in China. However, until we graduate from secondary school, what we have memorized is only "small lotus only reveals the tip of the horn", "February spring wind like scissors" and such a small mood, how to make us adore our vast sea of poetry? It is not that classical poetry should be widely used, but its retreat and disappearance from our vision is the loss of aesthetic ability of this society. A child who has been nourished from childhood by the rhythms of "picking hibiscus from the river", "curling silk blowing in the courtyard", "picking lamps in a drunken state to look at swords", may not be so numb and cold in their mind when they grow up. The first time I saw the movie, I was so happy to see it.

Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting Now, the image of the young and promising is young and gold, high education, high income, high consumption, know how to make money but also know how to spend money, and no longer Nalan Rongruo kind of proficiency in qin, chess, calligraphy and painting of the turbulent world of a good son. Adult values are reproduced and even reinforced in the next generation. Learning to play the zither (the piano, not the guzheng) must be examined, chess is played unless one wants to become a national player like Chang Hao, and calligraphy and painting are regular programs in juvenile palaces for extra points in higher education....... That initial elegance has been distorted under the pressure of parents' chicken feather dusters and exams, and can no longer maintain their aesthetic shapes.

Kong Rong let the pear "Why did Kong Rong let the pear?" "It's because the bigger pear is bad." The stubborn and stereotypical Kong Rong would have jumped up and down in his coffin if he had heard such an answer from a child nowadays. Yes, traditional moral paradigms are being lost. Children in the 1990s were taught that no laborer should eat. They were put in the middle of competition almost from the time they knew how, and were Darwinists by nature. A third-grader has to attend 40 lessons a week and practice the piano for three hours a day; a sixth-grader does homework until 12:00 a.m. every day; and a second-grader has to participate in math competitions, English speech contests, and student council elections outside of school....... How can he say, "Classmate, I don't want the first place, can I let you have it? No one will appreciate Kong Rong. Only, when the whole society began to agree with "humility makes people backward" this kind of industrial civilization values, the ancient Chinese kind of personality charm that once had the warmth like jade, also annihilated.

The imperial examinations began in the third year of the Sui Dynasty (607), and for thousands of years, the poor people have been able to enter the Dragon Gate through the imperial examinations. From the "township test", "will test" to the "temple test", held every three years, the imperial examinations so that "the world's heroes into my enough to carry on. "More than 1300 years later, the abolition of the imperial examinations, the rise of schools, has become an inevitable trend of historical development. Western education system in the room. Private schools have become covered with historical dust moths of the old and rotten, and science has become a new favorite. Today, private schools exist sporadically as news, but can no longer hear the sound of children reciting aloud. Under today's values, children have little interest in anything that does not serve a practical function.

Folk customs and folklore in the New Year touching the door nail firecrackers, on the Yuan to eat dumplings put lanterns twisting rice-planting songs, Dragon Boat Dragon Boat Race in the Dragon Boat insertion of wormwood hanging incense, in the Yuan Yuanyuan will drive away exorcism ...... With the comprehensive ban on firecrackers in big cities, these festivals away from us asymptotically away from the children's immaterial gained from the wild interest, but also gradually diluted. How many children still know the floating color? How many children still know about Taikaku? The children of the 1990s started to believe in Santa Claus and spent their birthdays in McDonald's Pizza Hut. They don't know Ah Fu, have never flown a kite, have never seen a long life lock, have never been on the Eight Immortals table, have never climbed over the threshold, so the traditional things in their view, there is no texture, is pale.
