By taking advantage of the unlimited capacity, powerful functions and openness of the Internet, we have built up a multifunctional platform, which is like an infinite bucket that can omit everything. It is like an infinite bucket, which can organize thousands of years of Chinese civilization in a multidimensional way, and store and express it in a multimedia way, which we call "China Bucket Project" figuratively.

The China Bucket will contain all the texts, all the cultural relics, all the historical relics and all the remains of civilization of the Chinese people from the ancient times to 1911. The total amount of its text is expected to be about 50 billion words, and other media documents such as diagrams, images, shadows and sounds are expected to amount to 200 million pieces.

9. Editing and publishing the "Chinese Materia Medica Book of Essentials and Guidelines"

Date: 2006-2008

The 410-volume Chinese version of the "Chinese Materia Medica Book of Essentials and Guidelines" has played an active role in promoting research on human health and natural medicines since it was published in Chinese. As this book is published in Chinese, it is still relatively easy to use in Asian countries such as mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Japan. However, there are great limitations for use in western countries such as the United States and Europe. In order to introduce "The Complete Book of Chinese Materia Medica", which is a civilization achievement of all mankind***, to more countries and people in the world, we are working on the editing and publication of the 10-volume English version of "The Complete Book of Chinese Materia Medica Synopsis and Introduction".

X. Translation and Publication of Great Writings of the Western World

Date: 2004-2008

China must understand the West. The most important thing to understand the West is to study Western thought and culture. The Great Writings (Encyclopedia Britannica Press) is, in our opinion, the most appropriate collection of literature for Chinese readers that reflects Western thought and culture. When conditions permit, we will translate the Chinese Great Writings into English and make them available to people around the world.

After two years of preparation, a detailed plan for the publication of the above mentioned works has been formed, and in 2006 the Society for the Study of Chinese Culture began to take the first step - the translation and publication of the Great Works of the Western World.
