from the protection of "national treasure, quintessence" and "civilization and culture".
Chinese civilization with a long history is bound to breed splendid Chinese culture. In the new century, it has become a common sense of protection: protecting the quintessence of the country, protecting national treasures, protecting civilization and protecting culture. Because they are not protected, they will be lost, they will be out of our sight and history forever, and we will not be able to show the glorious past of a great country. As a result, huge human, material and financial resources have been invested. From the government, to institutions, to the people and to individuals, touching stories have emerged one after another, eager to call for one after another, day after day, year after year, more and more dangerous, more and more in need of protection, more and more investment, more and more precious ... I am a citizen, and I think otherwise, I may as well speak out, although secretly.
Let's say that Beijing Opera, calligraphy, Chinese medicine, martial arts and Chinese painting have become the quintessence of China. To protect Peking Opera, blood transfusion has been given to Peking Opera troupes at all levels and local folk arts from national to local over the years. At present, more than 8% of Chinese people around the age of 4 don't like listening to Peking Opera, and more than 9% of people under the age of 3 don't understand and can't get used to singing. Calligraphy, how many people over middle age appreciate the art of calligraphy? Young people's fingers never leave the keyboard, their pens are far away from keys, and they are cursive seals, which is a heavenly book for them. Chinese medicine, how many doctors now get the true biography of Chinese medicine? Traditional Chinese medicine hospitals, which are known as the combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine, mainly derive their income from the profits of western medicine, and most of their assets are all kinds of testing equipment of western medicine. When you meet Chinese medicine practitioners, simply ask them, and they will let you "have a gastroscope, B-ultrasound and X-ray examination, and see them when you come back". Chinese medicine practitioners who can't feel their pulse never blush. Wushu, which was originally used for hard work, attack and defense, has now become a kind of gesture and appreciation, and is mostly used for ostentation and extravagance at parties and opening ceremonies. The only national quintessence that can be described as healthy is China's painting. Ink painting and western oil painting have different characteristics, but they blend with each other and complement each other, benefiting from the same result? It suddenly occurred to me that which of our four great inventions is ahead of the world now? I don't think so, just my inner pride. National quintessence, in the unstoppable torrent of world unification, seems so thin, relying on them to highlight national characteristics, the final outcome is still inevitable.
Speaking of national treasures, there are many in Yuanmingyuan that have been burned, many of them have been transported to Baodao by some people, and many of them have been resold privately by the people. In order to keep the good things of our ancestors, what did you do after buying them back? Put it there, find a good place to put it, and then repair and maintain it until it is unrecognizable. Endangered animal and plant species are also national treasures, and the vitality of giant pandas, crested ibis and the like is getting more and more. Unless the ancestors had this awareness of protection, we wouldn't even see a dinosaur today.
When it comes to civilization and culture, we think of historical sites. Not only magnificent historical sites are worth preserving and protecting, but also the streets and alleys of the past should be protected. A scholar loves this and appeals to all. What kind of civilization is this, and what kind of research value is it?
