Over the years, classics that originally only appeared in primary and secondary school textbooks have gradually moved to the front stage and reached the C-position, from the "Chinese Poetry Conference" and "Classic Chanting and Spreading" in front of the screen to various offline ancient poetry and literature competitions. On April 13th, the "Dianyao China" Reading Conference and the launch ceremony of the 5th Chinese Classic Recitation, Writing and Speaking Competition were held in Jinhua, Zhejiang. Chen Jie, a member of the Party Group and Vice Minister of the Ministry of Education, stated in a video speech that we need to strengthen the reading of traditional Chinese classics, red classics, and contemporary classics, strengthen the exploration and interpretation of classics, guide young people to read classics, and tell Chinese stories well. Classic is the "most valuable book" selected by history. Currently, reading classics has become a consensus, but "why do we still need to read classics" is still an unavoidable question. Many people believe that classics are full of the great truth of 'what is beyond what is beyond'. Especially traditional classics, the social system and power relationships they contain are no longer in line with current life. Why read and reread them? Just to understand traditional culture? At the scene, Professor Luo Yuming from the Chinese Department of Fudan University mentioned this sentence: "We are reading classics, not restoring the past. He said that reading classics, especially classical poetry, can better establish our connection with national culture and understand the emotional expressions of Chinese people. The criterion for judging 'I am Chinese' is not based on bloodline, but on cultural connections. True Chinese people live in the national cultural system. Many ideas in classical Chinese poetry have a subtle influence on people. Reading classics can also bring people a taste of enlightenment. Luo Yuming said that Li Bai's poetry provides us with many beautiful life ideas, while Tao Yuanming's works meet our expectations and requirements for life. Just like reading a novel, readers experience joys and sorrows in this fictional world, realizing their various possibilities. Of course, reading classics is by no means' high or low ', it is also' practical '. Luo Yuming insists that reading classics is meaningful for transforming language, especially ancient poetry. Because writers who lived thousands of years ago possessed the power to grasp language. Indeed, today's emphasis on rereading classics is not to go back to the past, but to move towards the future. In the era of the Internet, people have diverse ways to acquire knowledge. Bai Yansong, the host of China Central Radio and Television, said, 'Don't treat knowledge as wisdom.'. We need to search for wisdom in classics. Only wisdom can drive us towards further and higher places. The importance of reading classics is self-evident, and how to read classics is also a frequently discussed and new topic. The 5th Chinese Classic Recitation, Writing, and Speaking Competition utilized methods such as recitation, poetry interpretation, writing, and seal cutting to perpetuate the classics. This is definitely not the only solution. In the eyes of reporters, reading and understanding classics is not just about sitting in front of a desk and studying hard, it can be light and entertaining. Chen Fei, associate researcher of Literature and Art Research magazine of Chinese National Academy of Arts, mentioned the short video version of Three Hundred Tang Poems jointly launched by Tiktok, School of Arts of Nankai University and Zhonghua Book Company in 2022. This project invites multiple experts and scholars to explain and recite Tang poetry. Many people sigh,
