For example, in the business field, this idiom can be used to describe a brand or company with a long history. It has profound cultural heritage and extensive social influence. In the field of science, this idiom can be used to describe the historical origins and far-reaching influence of a certain subject.

It reflects the importance that Chinese traditional culture attaches to history and inheritance, and also expresses admiration and praise for its long history and profound cultural heritage.
