What we Chinese really lack ？
When I pick up this pen to think about this has been regarded as outdated talk, my heart is always calm in the face of storms. Because we China is a great country, the great transition is by the great people to build and keep it forward. After five millennia of blood and tears, we are constantly responding to the world because we have emerged from disaster, from humiliation and from humiliation to live an independent and dignified life.
As a good and even great nation, what we should do is to make greater contributions to the progress, peace and prosperity of the world, rather than just content with our own well-off or small world. We should have the vision of the world, to see the world in the eyes of the world, not just in a relatively limited space.
In the next 50 years, we Chinese people will take the lead in the world and have a greater impact on the process and pattern of the world. This is beyond doubt. So what qualities should we Chinese have in order to be fully prepared for tomorrow's leading world trend?
2 If a country wants to progress, it cannot develop without education, and what supports a country's healthy development is a country's higher education, and to promote higher education, one of the most important is academic and ideological freedom. When we talk about freedom of thought, it is easy to be sensitive to democracy and freedom in the West. Our own incompleteness is obvious, that is, China's long-standing Confucian ideology has greatly promoted the development of China in all aspects, such as military, political, cultural, ideological, economic, and so on, for thousands of years.
But Confucianism in the middle and late Ming Dynasty more and more do not meet the needs of China's development, we have to grow up, but the mother has always given a child's clothes, so obedient children wear out clothes, disobedient children throw off clothes。Such a big country, her territory was actually occupied by Portugal, such a big country, how many innocent people's blood and tears were left on her land, our emperors once regarded Westerners as barbarians and their science and technology as lewdness.
As a result, his ancestors lay underground, and his back was chased around the world. As an upright, inwardly have their own people and the motherland of the Chinese, they will seriously learn from the century of Western civilization and the essence of thought. But not to Laozi the first in the world, then we are not back to the history of the reincarnation of it? Our academic progress and scientific and technological progress are inseparable from freedom of thought and scholarship. Because Confucianism does not teach people to question, to think independently, in addition to let people become modest gentleman and become gentle and elegant person, there seems to be not much left.
Chinese people should not just stay in the room to do their favorite things, but often out of the world, to embrace a wider world. Confucianism teaches us to walk thousands of miles, in addition to become accessible, in fact, not much to let us know ourselves, the natural society and the universe. We should bravely go abroad to embrace a wider world and bring Chinese culture, ideas, and technology to where China can reach it. " We all know that the spirit of adventure in our bone marrow has been squeezed to the point where it's hard to breathe.
3 We should not just be gentle, we should be bloody, have a bottom line, have the courage to say no. In the next 50 years of the game on the international stage, relying on tolerance is not in exchange for the trust of others, can only be seen by others as weak.
We want to lead the world, we need to treat themselves and their own cause with extraordinary self-confidence, self-confident to other nations, to maintain a good national identity. This is something that we should learn from the Russian nation, including the Japanese who are not happy with it. Learning from your comrades is no different from learning from your opponents.
In short, you have to become stronger, more open-minded and seek for the interests and status of your own nation. We should strive to do it well, not wait for a golden day to do it, let alone wait for a helping hand. You are your own master, and if you do not strive for a nation, you will lose the opportunity to be respectfully respected. "
