1. The design of the emblem skillfully combines the Chinese characteristics, the characteristics of Beijing and the elements of the Olympic movement.

"China Seal - Dancing Beijing" takes the seal as the main form of expression, combines the traditional Chinese seal and calligraphy and other forms of art with the characteristics of the sport, and through the artistic techniques of exaggeration and deformation, it is skillfully transformed into an athletic human figure running forward and dancing to welcome the victory. The shape of the human figure also resembles the charm of the modern character "京", which contains a strong Chinese flavor. The work conveys and represents four messages and meanings:

(1) Chinese culture. The traditional Chinese cultural symbol - seal (Xiao Xing Yin) as the expression of the main pattern of the logo, the seal as early as 4,000 to 5,000 years ago has appeared in China, is the profound origin of the traditional Chinese culture and art form, and is still a widely used form of social integrity, implying that Beijing will realize the solemn promise of "hosting the best Olympic Games in history! It symbolizes Beijing's solemn promise to "host the best Olympic Games in history.

(2) Red. Red, the traditional Chinese color of celebration, is chosen as the base color of the main pattern. Red is traditionally regarded as the representative color of China, or the color of our national flag, representing the great Chinese people*** and the country, therefore, the main color of the logo is red, which has the characteristics of representing the country, representing the joyfulness and representing the traditional culture.

(3) Beijing, China, welcomes friends from all over the world. The work represents that Beijing is welcoming athletes and people from all over the world to gather in Beijing with the attitude of reform and opening up, which vividly expresses the warmth and sincerity of Beijing in welcoming guests from all directions, and conveys the concept and spirit of the Olympics.

(4) Sprinting to the limit, creating brilliance, and promoting the Olympic spirit of "faster, higher, stronger". The modern Olympic movement has always emphasized the athletes as the core, and the emblem "China Seal - Dancing Beijing" embodies this principle. The seal's athletic human figure is strong, flexible and friendly, and it is full of dynamism while containing Chinese culture.

2. The font design of the emblem adopts the style of the Chinese brush character Hanjian, which is unique in design.

The font of the emblem work "China Seal - Dancing Beijing" adopts the style of hanjian (Han Dynasty bamboo writing), which organically integrates the strokes and flavors of hanjian into the font of BEIJING 2008, which is natural, simple and smooth, and is consistent with the emblem graphics and the Chinese culture, and is full of dynamics, It is natural, simple, smooth, and blends well with the emblem graphics and the five Olympic rings. The font not only meets the purpose of market development, but also harmonizes with the style of the main pattern of the emblem, which avoids possible legal disputes of counterfeiting and infringement due to the use of ready-made fonts in the future registration of the overall emblem and the registration of standard fonts.

The overall structure of the emblem is coordinated with the proportion of the independent structure.

After repeated refinement and modification by experts, the main part of the "Chinese Seal - Dancing Beijing" has been harmonized between the Chinese Seal, "Hanjian" "Beijing 2008" and the five Olympic rings. The layout and proportionality between the three parts of "China Seal - Dancing Beijing", especially the China Seal part, are nearly perfect.

Chinese (humanistic) Olympics and traditional Chinese culture

Humanistic Olympics, how to reflect the "humanistic" in the Olympic Games, the newspaper published many articles, talking about a lot of very good views. I think the most important thing is to promote traditional Chinese culture. Now there are some people, including some intellectuals, college students, masters, doctors, and even professors, experts and scholars, do not understand some aspects of the basic common sense of Chinese culture, there are blind spots that need to be cleared up. Some Chinese students go to Europe, once they say they are from China, people are very happy to tell him that they like Laozhuang, he inexplicably asked: "Who is Laozhuang?" Not long ago, Germany erected a statue of Confucius, why? Some people say it is because he is a famous person. What made Confucius famous? Some people say that his most important characteristic is conservative. Are Germans so fond of conservatism? If this kind of phenomenon happens at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, what humanity is left?

In the 20th century, from the May Fourth Movement to the Cultural Revolution, almost all of them criticized Confucius' Confucianism. People who went to elementary school in the 1950s are now about 60 years old. These people were taught to criticize Confucius and Confucianism, and after the great criticisms that followed, many of them still have the deep imprints of that era in their minds. Although there has been a great improvement in the last 20 years, some people still have difficulties in changing their preconceived notions. those who started elementary school in 1966 during the "Cultural Revolution" are now in their 40s, and they are the main force of the society, serving as teachers, fathers, and educators in the society. If they still have a lot of blind spots in their basic knowledge of Chinese culture, it is conceivable that their influence will be great. Some of them, for special reasons, have been inculcated by Chinese culture and have basic common sense, while most of them do not have this opportunity, but are only driven by life, the pursuit of survival, and then the pursuit of enjoyment. As for the cultural aspect, it is just an aspect of hobby, and those who do not have this hobby are just spectators. In short, many people nowadays, including some intellectuals, have some blind spots about the basic common sense of Chinese culture, which need to be swept away urgently. This is not a personal reason, but the result of a special historical era.

Nowadays, the activities of popularizing traditional culture in the whole country are diversified, geographically vast, rapidly developing and booming. Children's Bible reading activities are mainly carried out in kindergartens and elementary school, there are also specialized national school halls and private schools, in a few years, throughout the country, the rapid development of children participating in the activities of the cumulative total of more than 10 million people. The content of the program is mainly "Disciple's Rules", "Three Character Classic" and other monastic readings. Education in Chinese virtues, advocated by the central government, has been widely carried out in primary and secondary schools, and a large number of extracurricular readings on traditional virtues have been published, including a book entitled "Aphorisms of Traditional Chinese Virtues," of which more than 6 million copies were distributed in a single year. Some private schools have added traditional culture courses to the teaching programs prescribed for public schools, comprehensively teaching the basics of Chinese culture.

More than 150 Confucius Institutes have been organized around the world, and elementary school students in some countries (such as Japan) are reciting the Analects of Confucius in earnest. How can Chinese college students not read the classics of the Chinese tradition? Some college students lamented that it is the nation's sorrow that the classics are "silent", and it is the individual's sorrow that he or she is ignorant of the classics. Currently there are many students are eager to learn the traditional national classics, in many secondary schools and universities, students organize their own national school clubs, teachers are invited to lectures, guidance, learning, discussion of the Analects of Confucius and other classics, expressing the good will of the people want to carry forward the traditional Chinese culture.

The business community and some cultural departments have organized more lectures and forums, in which there are many lectures on traditional culture. Senior managers of enterprises, mainly, the basic knowledge of Chinese culture of the study classes, training courses in the famous colleges and universities have come into being. The Wenjin Lecture Theatre, a series of lectures on traditional culture organized by a branch of the National Library, has held more than 300 sessions and has been well received by readers. Lectures organized by the Youth League Committee of the Central Organs added a series on national studies in 2007. The Central Party School and the National Defense University have also organized lectures on national studies. Many provinces, cities and counties have organized "Lectures on National Studies", such as Changle City in Fujian Province, which has held more than a dozen "Lectures on National Studies". Television, radio and other mass media also disseminate excellent traditional culture in the form of lectures and interviews. CCTV's "The Hundred Schools of Lecture" has invited professors such as Yu Dan to speak about Chinese literature and history, as well as about reading the Bible, which has been warmly welcomed by the audience, demonstrating the great influence of the mass media, and reflecting the public's great enthusiasm and demand for understanding and learning about traditional culture.

Beijing's Andingmen Street, in its activities to build a cultural community, cooperates with the Chinese Confucius Institute, inviting experts to preach Confucianism to community residents; Tongzhou District also invites experts to speak on traditional Chinese culture, which has a great impact; Shanghai and Fujian have retired professors giving lectures on The Analects of Confucius for the community or organizing the owners to recite The Analects of Confucius, which has played a positive role in improving the community's morale, promoting harmony and enhancing cohesion.

Humanities

The Humanistic Olympics should promote traditional Chinese culture. There are some obstacles to the promotion of traditional Chinese culture that must be removed. There are mainly the following aspects:

One, in the ideological and theoretical circles, to theoretically correct the concept of traditional Chinese culture and Marxism is antagonistic. It should be seen that the Chineseization of Marxism and the modernization of traditional Chinese culture are consistent, synchronous and inseparable. It is wrong to resist the promotion of traditional Chinese culture under the pretext of the guiding position of Marxism; it is also wrong to advocate traditional Chinese culture and oppose Marxism.

Second, in the academic world, the relationship between Chinese and Western academics should be corrected. The Confucius Institutes founded all over the world should also be an important base for spreading Chinese traditional culture in addition to Chinese language teaching. Shouldn't it be a shame and an embarrassment that many foreigners are learning about traditional Chinese culture while Chinese people don't understand or know much about it, or even think they don't need to know about it at all?

Thirdly, the phenomenon that teachers and principals do not know as much about traditional Chinese culture as their students, and that parents do not know as much about it as their children, exists in schools and families. Many students in primary and secondary schools read the Confucian classics and need to be explained by their teachers, while many teachers are still quite rusty on the Confucian classics and are unable to guide their students in their studies, not to mention that they are unable to "learn as a teacher and act as a model for the rest of the world", and they do not know how to set an example for their students in terms of what they should do. Therefore, it is recommended that the higher teacher training colleges and universities should strengthen the national education, will be identified as a public **** mandatory courses to adapt to the needs of the current situation.

Fourth, in the leading cadres at all levels, there are many policies are critical inheritance and development of China's outstanding traditions. Some cadres do not know enough about the promotion of outstanding traditional culture, and fail to y understand the guidelines and policies of the central government, which hinders their initiative and enthusiasm in implementing the policies. Raising the awareness of cadres has thus become an important key to implementing the central government's policy of promoting outstanding traditional culture. It is very necessary to provide appropriate training to the national party and government cadres to let them know more about the contents of the national culture.
