By relying on cultural subjectivity, we Chinese people can confidently and independently pursue our own path, and build modern civilization of the Chinese nation with more profound confidence. Hello everyone, I am Lei Bo from the Institute of Ancient History, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. Why do we value cultural subjectivity so much today? Since modern times, Chinese society has gone through a painful process of confrontation or even tearing apart from its own cultural traditions. While reflecting and reconstructing, it inevitably leads to confusion and loss. In recent years, with the continuous enhancement of China's comprehensive national strength, the whole society's awareness of the subjectivity of Chinese culture has also been significantly enhanced. With the rise of "China-Chic" and "Guofeng", Chinese traditional cultural elements have been loved by more and more people. We can feel that there seems to be a spiritual bond and thread that runs from ancient times to today, leading to the depths of each and every one of us in our inner world. What is this power that moves, uplifts, and makes us proud? I believe that the core of this spiritual thread is also a key element of the subjectivity of our Chinese culture, and it is the simplest yet most profound set of "problems". What is "human"? How can one become a lively, full, loving and self loving person? Confucius told us, "Do not do to others what you do not want." This is the most basic foundation of ethics and morality. On this basis, we should establish ourselves and progress together with others, so that virtues such as kindness, courage, and wisdom can grow. Mencius told us that living is not just about pursuing food and clothing, but also about having a flame of conscience in one's heart. Laozi told us that the dimensions of life are rich and profound. We can not only "live", but also explore what "Dao" is, and understanding "Dao" can guide us to better "live". Zhuangzi told us that there are many "reluctances" in life, but it is precisely in such "reluctances" that we yearn for a grand and broad realm of life. The saying goes, "The great Peng rises with the wind in one day, soaring up 90000 miles.". Who said that there can be no "carefree travel" in the "human world"? Is the humble and insignificant self meaningful compared to the infinite time and space, when an individual's life is so brief? This can be said to be the ultimate problem, and if it is not treated correctly, it is easy to fall into confusion and nothingness. Most civilizations in the world need to resort to religious beliefs as spiritual support. But our Chinese ancestors gave us another way of thinking. What we pursue is not eternity, but the depth and quality of life, a truly accessible and beautiful life. But "beauty" is not simply equivalent to prosperity and wealth. Confucius said, "Eating sparse food, drinking water, bending one's arm and pillowing it, music is also in it. Being unjust and rich and noble is like a floating cloud to me." The philosopher Zhang Zai of the Northern Song Dynasty proposed, "To establish the heart for heaven and earth, to establish the destiny for the people, to inherit the teachings of the sages, and to create peace for all ages."
