What is the significance of the Expo China Pavilion building

I. Determination of the display concept (a) The Chinese National Pavilion displays "Chinese wisdom in urban development". (B) the display concept and the theme of the correspondence (general) and cities around the world, the development of China's cities, not only to meet the needs of millions of people's lives, but also face a lot of contradictions and challenges, there are a variety of incongruities in the relationship between people and people, people and nature. In the process of resolving contradictions and creating a sustainable urban development model, the Chinese nation has gradually formed and condensed a lot of spirit, quality, morality and ingenuity. The "Chinese Wisdom in Urban Development" is to show what elements of Chinese culture are present in the process of urban growth, renewal, life, construction and evolution of civilization, and how these elements contribute to "Better City, Better Life". (III) Correspondence between the exhibition concept and Chinese culture (specificity) Compared with other countries, China's urban development practice has distinctive uniqueness: Chinese cities have survived for thousands of years; Chinese cities are culturally diversified and y rooted; and the construction of Chinese cities is in line with nature, benefiting everything, which is in line with the concept of sustainable development in the world today. These characteristics are rooted in the deep soil of Chinese culture. It can be said that the values and methodologies guiding the development of Chinese cities are the highlights of Chinese culture, and Chinese wisdom has been fully expressed in the vehicle of cities. Therefore, choosing "Chinese Wisdom in Urban Development" as the entry point of the China Pavilion not only provides rich materials for the interpretation of the theme, but also demonstrates to millions of visitors the inevitable connection between Chinese culture and China's future development trend. Selection of "Chinese Wisdom" (I) Principle of Selection Chinese culture is profound and profound, and the Chinese wisdom that leads the "urban development" is extremely rich in connotation. The information conveyed by the pavilion must be concise and thorough, so it is necessary to define "wisdom". What will be displayed at the Expo is "Great Wisdom", that is, through the carrier of the city, it will show the ideas, spirit, viewpoints and methods that have guiding significance for the development of the Chinese nation, the core content and genes of Chinese civilization, and the fundamentals of China's ancient spirit. Specifically, it is to show the judgment (intelligence), tolerance (morality) and creativity (innovative thinking) of the Chinese nation in urban development. Reflecting the "Great Wisdom" of Chinese civilization is not only rooted in traditional culture, but should also have practical significance. The concepts of independence and self-reliance, enterprising reform and opening up, attaching importance to people's livelihood, and harmonious *** living, which have played an important role in China's political, economic, and cultural life in modern times, are the logical extension of the 5,000-year-old Chinese civilization in the new era. Therefore, in selecting "Great Wisdom", two principles should be met: "contemporary", where the selected wisdom can fully reflect the development direction of today's China; "inclusive", where the selected wisdom has rich connotations and can be used in a variety of ways; and "inclusive", where the selected wisdom has rich connotations and can be used in a variety of ways. The selected wisdom should be rich in content, reflecting the crystallization of diversified human thinking and practice. (The great civilization of China embraces the heavens and the earth, and is both strong and soft. Such Chinese wisdom is the outlook on life of unity between aggressiveness and tolerance, the worldview of coexistence of change and order, the virtue of being able to tolerate and stop the world, the brightness of the weather, and the methodology of advocating wisdom and dialectical wisdom. Today's China is gradually integrating into the international community as a responsible power with peaceful development. The wisdom displayed in the China Pavilion is not only y rooted in traditional culture, but also reflects the philosophy of the Chinese people in the new era of governance. (III) Selected Wisdom According to the above understanding, the Chinese National Pavilion makes people feel the wisdom of self-improvement, virtue, mastery of nature, and harmony and difference through the interpretive display of urban development. "Self-improvement, virtue and material goods" from the "Zhou Yi": "the sky is healthy, the gentleman to self-improvement" (dry hexagram), "the earth is Kun, the gentleman to virtue and material goods" (Kun hexagram). These two "wisdom" is the "human" character requirements, summarizes the understanding of the relationship between the spirit of the nation and the destiny of the Chinese culture. Among them, "self-improvement" embodies the robustness, vigor and tenacity of the Chinese nation, while "virtue and tolerance" embodies the modesty, tolerance and optimism of the Chinese nation. The fact that the Chinese nation has survived the test of time, the rise and fall of thousands of years, and has been able to cohere solidly and maintain the vitality and vigor of a great nation is inseparable from "self-improvement, virtue and material goods" as the national spirit and national character of the Chinese nation. The phrase "follow the law of nature" is derived from Laozi's "Man follows the law of the earth, the earth follows the law of the sky, the sky follows the law of the Tao, and the Tao follows the law of nature", and the phrase "harmony and difference" is derived from Confucius's "Gentlemen are harmonious and different, while small men are the same but different". The "harmony and difference" comes from Confucius' saying "The gentleman is harmonious but different, the villain is the same but not harmonious." These two "wisdoms" are the requirements for "people" and summarize the understanding and dialectical approach of Chinese culture to the relationship between human beings and nature, as well as between human beings and human beings. Among them, "Teach Nature" requires respecting nature, conforming to objective laws, and maintaining harmony between man and nature; "Harmony and Difference" holds that all things in the world are "harmony", not "sameness", and that all things in the world are "harmony", not "sameness". According to "Harmony and Difference", everything in the world is "harmony", not "sameness", and we should respect different cultures, be good at learning, communication and integration, and maintain the harmony between people and people. In terms of their impact on urban development, these four "wisdoms" are not at the same level. "Self-improvement and virtue" emphasizes the requirements of the "human being" ontology, which is introspective and at the worldview level, while "learning from nature and being different" emphasizes the requirements of human behavior, which is externalized and deals with people's behaviors. It is the externalization of the methodology of dealing with the relationship between man and nature, man and man.
