"What does a cooking tool look like 3000 years ago?" "It turns out there were love letters in oracle bone inscriptions." "Which character is the cutest emoji in oracle bone inscriptions?"... Recently, Li Youxi (real name Li Ying), a 95s girl who studied oracle bone inscriptions, gained a lot of attention due to a video exchange on oracle bone inscriptions. The study of oracle bone inscriptions, a rare skill, combined with short videos, received unexpected attention. This is not the first time oracle bone inscriptions have become popular. For a period of time, the seemingly obscure and difficult to approach oracle bone script has attracted attention, from the choreography of oracle bone script body dances by post-00s commentators to the popularity of broadcasting exercises on campus. In the era of the Internet, ancient texts containing the code of national spirit empower the dissemination methods of the Internet era to meet the spiritual and cultural needs of contemporary people. The popularity of traditional culture continues to rise, and it is no coincidence that oracle bone inscriptions have gained more audiences. In recent years, historical and archaeological majors related to oracle bone inscriptions have gained popularity. The rise of obscure knowledge and its entry into the public eye is a welcome event and a good start. People may find pictographs interesting, but they may not necessarily understand the origin and development of ancient Chinese characters, nor do they know how difficult it is to verify an oracle bone script. In fact, the study of oracle bone inscriptions still requires scholars to focus on serious knowledge, and every discovery cannot be separated from daily persistence and dedication. There is still a long way to go to transform the enthusiasm of public discussion into academic research. Promoting the inheritance and development of excellent traditional Chinese culture cannot be separated from the professional research of scholars, and also requires the joint efforts of the whole society. Efforts should be made not only in terms of institutional development and comprehensive implementation of policies in disciplinary construction and planning, but also in terms of understanding, to reverse people's biases. The study of oracle bone inscriptions is regarded by many as a useless study, but only when it is useless can it be of great use. From understanding the earliest disease and meteorological records, restoring vivid historical scenes, to tracing the roots of the evolution of Chinese characters, deepening the study of philology and linguistics, and then exploring the source of Chinese civilization, interpreting the deep code of "why China"... To promote the rejuvenation of Chinese civilization and enable more people to feel the power from the long-standing context, such "useless learning" is precisely needed. From this, we can better understand the significance of promoting knowledge of oracle bone script through short videos. Plant a seed and harvest a forest. By enabling more people to understand the significance of the discipline, we can expect more young people who aspire to it to enter through its means and become a reserve force for the continuation of their studies, injecting vitality into the development of the discipline and cultural inheritance. In this sense, traditional culture requires both professional researchers and professional promoters. By utilizing richer forms and more modern languages, we can bring to life the excellent traditional Chinese culture and create a strong social atmosphere for inheriting Chinese civilization, so as to make more obscure and unique studies truly popular.
