"Electric Guardian" iCAR 03, what is the real strength of this tidal box?

With the changeable SUV features, the launch of iCAR 03 caught many people’s attention. Full of modeling, like a struggler roaming in the city, like a knight through the jungle, or an astronaut roaming in the stars, it can provide rich emotional value, like an ever-changing elf, and has a feeling of "little guardian".

ICAR 03 is in line with the pursuit of fashion and free creation pursued by contemporary young people. The market is gradually becoming younger, and most of the consumers are the younger generation. The fashionable design has already become the market trend, and this car stands out among many models with its unique "square box" shape. But just design can’t be a measure of the value of products. Let’s find out what the strength of iCAR 03 is under the coolness.

When it comes to iCAR 03, we have to mention its design. The headlights and LOGO all adopt the vertical LED light group design, which echoes each other, and the front looks a bit like the three letters "I". The front grille is designed with transverse dense vertical stripes, which is relatively novel in new energy vehicles. The waistline and roof lines are relatively straight, creating a tough off-road vehicle image. In addition, it is equipped with a hidden door handle, which not only increases the sense of science and technology of the whole vehicle, but also reduces wind resistance and improves energy efficiency.

ICAR 03 window adopts electronic paddle lifting design, which not only improves the convenience of operation, but also brings more advanced scientific and technological experience to drivers. In addition, the door adopts the electronic inner door opening mode, which makes it easier to get in and out of the vehicle. In the design of the console, iCAR 03 also shows its uniqueness. The console adopts a separate design, which is wide at the front and narrow at the back, showing a unique suspension effect. The console is equipped with interesting custom functions, such as the design of cold and warm cups, which can adjust the temperature of the cup holder according to the driver’s needs, which is both practical and intimate.

In order to meet the young consumers’ pursuit of outdoor camping, tide play and tide change, iCAR 03 is also equipped with many practical functions. For example, the car is equipped with a 50KG load-bearing luggage rack, which can easily carry all kinds of camping equipment. In addition, the vehicle also has 3.3kW, 220V external discharge function and 12V power supply in the trunk, which provides users with rich power consumption scenarios, which can meet the needs of users whether they are camping or refitting.

ICAR 03 is based on the i-MS multi-element Rubik’s Cube new energy architecture, with all-aluminum beams and an electronically controlled four-wheel drive system. It is expected to be equipped with intelligent adaptive electric four-wheel drive and single-motor rear-drive models equivalent to 2.5T power. Among them, the horsepower of single motor rear drive is 184Ps, and the maximum output power is 135kW. The total power of the motor is 205KW, and the total torque is 385N.m, with strong power performance. Equipped with front McPherson+rear H-arm independent suspension system and intelligent four-wheel drive system, it has various driving modes such as snow, sand and mud, which can realize millisecond response and drive more smoothly.

As a tidal box electric SUV, iCAR 03 has a good performance in hardware, driving, safety and intelligence. It is close to the consumption habits of young people. The main point is to build young people’s cars with hard-core technology from the perspective of young people. This car with cool attributes should be recognized by many young people who pursue fashion.

"Sesame seed" size heart model comes out

Reproducibility of heart model development. Image source: Sasha Mendjan and others

  Sasha Mendjan, a biologist at the Austrian Academy of Sciences, and his team used human pluripotent stem cells to cultivate a sesame-sized heart model, also known as the heart line. It can spontaneously organize and exhibit a hollow atrium without experimental support. Mendjan’s team activated all six known signal pathways involved in embryonic heart development in a specific order to induce stem cells to organize themselves.

  As cells differentiate, they begin to form different layers-structures similar to the heart wall. After a week’s development, these organs self-organized into a 3D structure with a closed cavity, which almost reproduced the spontaneous growth trajectory of the human heart. In addition, the research team also found that the heart wall tissue can contract rhythmically and squeeze the liquid in the cavity.

  The team also tested the response of heart organs to tissue damage. They used a cold steel bar to freeze some heart organs and killed many cells in this area. It was found that cardiac fibroblasts (a kind of cells responsible for wound healing) began to migrate to the injured area and produced protein to repair the injury. Related research was published in Cell on May 20th. This progress enabled scientists to create some of the most authentic heart organs so far, which made it possible for pharmaceutical companies to introduce more drugs into clinical trials.

The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has worsened Russia-Israel relations. Will the closure of the Jewish Affairs Bureau become a new tipping point?

On July 26th, local time, Russian Presidential Press Secretary peskov said that the Russian Ministry of Justice pushed to close the branch of Jewish Agency in Russia last week because it violated Russian laws and should not be "politicized".

The Jewish Affairs Bureau is an organization aimed at promoting overseas Jews to immigrate to Israel, and it has close ties with the Israeli government. At a time when the differences between Russia and Israel are widening due to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the closure of the Jewish Affairs Bureau has caused concern about the direction of Russian-Israeli relations.

However, some Israeli officials pointed out that it is not good for Russia to damage Russia-Israel relations, and Israel should carefully handle Russia’s request to close the Jewish Affairs Bureau.

Claiming to violate privacy laws

According to Agence France-Presse and Israel’s Ha ‘aretz, a court in Moscow said on July 21 that the Russian Ministry of Justice asked the court to "dissolve" the Jewish Affairs Bureau with offices in several Russian cities for unknown legal reasons. According to Reuters and Ha ‘aretz, the court will hold a hearing on July 28th to decide the future of Jewish Affairs Bureau in Russia, and Russia is expected to submit more details to the court at that time.

According to the British "Guardian" reported on July 26, the Russian government accused the Jewish Affairs Bureau of violating the privacy law. Israel’s Jerusalem Post reported that the Russian government also sent warning letters to several Jewish organizations operating in Russia and funded by foreign countries last week. Since the outbreak of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the Russian government has closed dozens of foreign-funded institutions and charitable organizations.

Peskov said that this incident should not be "politicized" or "affect the whole Russian-Israeli relationship".

According to Agence France-Presse, in response to peskov’s statement, a spokesman for Israeli Prime Minister Lapid said: "The relationship between Israel and Russia is based on a long history, regular communication and common interests." Israel also responded that the Jewish community is the core of Israel-Russia relations. If there are legal issues related to the activities of the Jewish Affairs Bureau in Russia, "Israel will, as always, be ready to participate in the dialogue."

Founded in 1929 and headquartered in Jerusalem, the Jewish Affairs Bureau is the largest Jewish non-profit organization in the world, which played a key role in helping Israel establish its state in 1948. In 1989, the Jewish Affairs Bureau began to operate in Russia. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, hundreds of thousands of Jews from all over the Soviet Union went to Israel to settle down. Of today’s 9.4 million Israeli population, more than 1 million have ties with the Soviet Union.

Russian-Israeli relations have not been smooth recently.

According to the Guardian, Israeli Prime Minister Lapid said on July 24th that Russia’s decision to close the Jewish Affairs Bureau would "seriously affect (bilateral) relations".

In response, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zacharova responded in an interview with Russian state television on the 26 th that Israel "does it think that their actions and statements in recent months have not affected our relationship?" She also criticized Israel for being "totally unconstructive and most importantly biased" in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, "which is totally incomprehensible and strange to us".

Agence France-Presse quoted analysts as saying that Russia’s attempt to close the Jewish Affairs Bureau may be a warning to the Lapid government’s stance on the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. Although Israel is one of the few western countries that has not imposed sanctions on Russia and has not sold weapons to Ukraine, the Lapid government has adopted tougher language on Russia and Ukraine than its predecessor.

In April this year, it was reported that Russian troops "shot" civilians in Bucha and other places in Ukraine. Although Russia denied it, Lapid, then Israeli foreign minister, still accused Russia of committing war crimes.

In June, Pinchas Goldschmidt, the chief rabbi of Moscow (rabbi refers to the spiritual leader of Jews who is proficient in Tanah and Talmud and is responsible for presiding over Jewish religious ceremonies), was forced into exile in Israel because he refused to publicly support Russia’s "special military action" against Ukraine.

According to the Israel Times, on July 26th, Israel announced that it would expand its humanitarian aid to Ukraine, which would include financial support for non-governmental aid organizations operating in Ukraine for the first time.

On the same day, Israel also confirmed that when Israeli fighter planes attacked suspected Iranian targets in Syria in May this year, Russian troops fired at them, but they did not hit the target. However, Israel also believes that the fire incident is "unique".

In addition, Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov’s remarks in May that "Hitler is of Jewish descent" and "the most fanatical anti-Semitic elements are often Jews" also had an impact on Russian-Israeli relations, and Israel recalled its ambassador to Russia for this reason.

In addition, Russia’s request to close the Jewish Affairs Bureau may also have the consideration of alleviating the brain drain of high-skilled talents. According to Ha ‘aretz, after the conflict between Russia and Ukraine broke out, a large number of Jews from both countries returned to Israel.

Russia has a large number of Jewish communities. According to the data provided by the Jewish Affairs Bureau, tens of thousands of Russians have left their country since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, most of them are highly educated and skilled personnel, and about 16,000 of them have come to Israel.

Israeli Immigration Minister Pnina Tamano-Shata told local Israeli television that according to the Law of Reunification, 600,000 Russians are eligible to immigrate to Israel. Since the closure of the Jewish Affairs Bureau in Russia, the number of applicants has increased.

Expert: You should not overreact.

In a report on July 25th, Washington post said that the request to close the Jewish Affairs Bureau made Russian-Israeli relations "highly tense".

However, Reuters reported that, despite their tough attitude towards Israel on issues related to the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, both peskov and ZaHallova now seem to want to minimize the possible diplomatic impact of the closure of the Jewish Affairs Bureau.

According to Ha ‘aretz’s report on July 26th, Danny Yatom, the former head of the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad, also told the newspaper that Russia’s request to close the Jewish Affairs Bureau was "mainly rhetoric", and the damage to Russia-Israel relations was not good for Russia.

Yatom said that although Russian law requires organizations receiving foreign funding to register as "foreign agents", it has not been applied to the Jewish Affairs Bureau.

Yatom also pointed out that Putin deliberately created a "tense atmosphere" in Russia-Israel relations, which meant showing kindness to Iran. On July 20th, Putin visited Tehran and attended the trilateral summit with Iran and Turkey.

In view of the fact that Russia has not exerted other pressure on Israel except for its rhetoric, Yatom believes that Israel should not put pressure on Russia now.

According to another report in Reuters, Lapid instructed a group of Israeli legal experts to stand by, and once Russia agreed, they immediately flew to Moscow to coordinate and solve the dispute of the Jewish Affairs Bureau. Only as of the afternoon of July 26th, these people have not set out. According to this, Yatom believes: "There is still room for discussing diplomatic issues with the Russians." Israel should "stay in the diplomatic field."

On July 25th, several senior Israeli security experts and diplomats told Ha ‘aretz that Israel should act cautiously and take measured actions to solve the crisis. Yaakov Amidror, a former Israeli national security adviser, pointed out that Israel should not be "belligerent": "We must find a solution that will not lead to communication failure and disconnection between us and the Russians. If the situation worsens, Israel can decide to take effective measures, but we should take careful measures to avoid widening the gap between the two sides and worsening the situation. "

"New king of comedy" Wang Baoqiang recalled the life of drifting north and conveyed the spirit of struggle.

1905 movie network news At present, the roadshow with the theme of "king of comedy, a fresh start" is under way, and Stephen Chow, with the leading actors of "New king of comedy", rushed to all parts of the country to meet the audience. On January 27th, starring Wang Baoqiang came to Taiyuan, Shanxi, and appeared in wanda plaza and Yuci Ocean Park in Taiyuan. The enthusiastic audience interacted with Baoqiang, participated in impromptu performances, and recreated the hilarious scene of a walk-on competition for posts. Finally, Wang Baoqiang led the audience to shout "Work hard and strive" in 2019.

 

Wang Baoqiang recalled the release of "New king of comedy" by sea lions, an animal guest of "Living in the North".


At the press conference, Wang Baoqiang not only shared her "star girl" style in "New king of comedy", but also shouted "Work hard" to the fans and friends who arrived at the scene. Bao Qiang said that after reading the story of New king of comedy, people with dreams can see hope. Even though the protagonist’s struggle process is very hard, they will be able to "wait until dawn" with persistent belief.


Later, in Ocean Park, Baoqiang shared his "drifting north" life with the audience. Even though he lived in a simple and humid basement and even had eczema on his waist, he never gave up his dream of being an actor and tried to seize every opportunity to struggle. Facing the sea lion, an animal guest in Ocean Park, Wang Baoqiang expressed great surprise. The sea lion actor even returned to the stage for the third time to cheer for New king of comedy, which is the most "hard-working" actor on the scene. Wang Baoqiang took the initiative to thank the animal guest and took a cordial photo with the sea lion. After the performance of the sea lion, the climax of the activity was ushered in. Two mermaid performers sent eye-catching blessings to "New king of comedy", and the audience all took out their mobile phones to record this short and beautiful moment.


The joy that Wang Baoqiang brought to Taiyuan’s friends does not stop there. In the atrium of wanda plaza, Taiyuan, enthusiastic fans who participated in the event recreated the walk-on improvisation of king of comedy, and the scene was very hilarious. Dedicated fans across from Wang Baoqiang still insist that "mass actors are also actors", and the audience’s eyes are discerning, so they must let go of themselves and perform with true feelings. Wang Baoqiang also sent a "New king of comedy" red envelope to every devoted audience, wishing everyone more gains in the new year. Then in Yuci Ocean Park, Taiyuan, Baoqiang gave the audience a small surprise gift from New king of comedy.

 

Twenty years after Stephen Chow’s classic, a new chapter in king of comedy begins with a "new".


For Stephen Chow’s films, what the audience miss most is his early unadorned pure comedy elements and his precise control of digging up the joys and sorrows of small people. As a classic comedy that influenced countless people, king of comedy ushered in a new chapter after 20 years.


The script has been polished for three years, focusing on the little people again. This time, the elements of Stephen Chow have returned in an all-round way. Stephen Chow said that he actually needed time. The New king of comedy is not only a simple movie, but also very important and meaningful to him. Wang Baoqiang also admitted frankly in Taiyuan that the spirit of "New king of comedy" is actually reflecting the little people who live seriously and strive for it. The audience can often see the true, confident, serious and even serious spirit in the little people. When I was a walk-on myself, I still tried to pursue my dreams in the face of difficulties. Just like the heroine in the trailer, what I need most may be a voice telling myself, "He works hard and he will succeed."


The whole "newness" of New king of comedy is that Yin Tianchou worked hard for a long time 20 years ago, but at the end he still lost the chance to play the leading role. And 20 years later, the life of the actors in "New king of comedy" will not be a walk-on forever. It can be said that 20 years ago, the audience did not see the "dawn" with Yin Tianchou, but 20 years later, everyone should see that it was really beautiful after dawn.


At present, the pre-sale of movies has been fully opened, and "New king of comedy" will be fully released on the first day of 2019.

This is the "Guide to the Core Literature of Social Media Research"

001 articles

Starting today, we hope to do an interesting and important thing: to sort out the core literature of social media research and try to draw an academic map for this field.

Today, the 001st paper of this project is pushed, and it is also the most cited paper in social media research: Social Website: Definition, History and Academic Map.

Boyd, D.M., & Ellison, N.B. (2007). Social Network Sites: Definition, History, and Scholarship. Journal of Computer ‐ Mediated Communication, 13 (1), 210-230. (Cited: 18601)

The question we want to answer is:

★ In this paper, how do Boyd and Ellision define social networking sites?

★ What does this definition inspire the research of social networking sites?

★ What amendments have been made to this definition in the follow-up study?

Of course, in addition to reading, if you are interested in this plan and want to "blend in" together, please read the project plan at the end of the push and contact us.

In the history of social networking sites, 2007 is worth remembering. At the end of this year, Read/WriteWeb, a well-known Internet technology review blog, decided to award the IT company of the year award to Facebook, not Google. The reason is that Facebook broke the closed system of traditional social networking sites and allowed users to obtain plug-ins from third-party companies in the site. In other words, since then, Facebook has raised its "connection" potential to a new level and become an open co-writing space.

In 2007, beyond the commercial horizon, social networking sites, as academic research objects, also ushered in its landmark works, and the key word was still "connection". If we look back in 2007, a lot of academic research on social networking sites has been accumulated in the field of humanities and social sciences, but the dialogue between them is still incomplete and needs to be integrated urgently. Therefore, the Journal of Computer Aided Communication (JCMC) published a special issue on social networking sites in 2007, and invited two scholars, danah boyd and Nicole Ellison, to write an opening article. In this opening article, two scholars discussed the definition, history and academic map of social networking sites. Among them, their definition of social networking sites has been widely cited by subsequent studies and has become a classic work in the field of social networking sites.

Here we need to briefly explain from three levels why "definition" is important for social networking sites. First, the definition represents the boundary of research. Tampering with raymond carver’s words means what we are talking about when we are talking about social networking sites. Second, the definition focuses on the research field of vision. In our definition, we distinguish social networking sites from other types of websites, and the difference is likely to be the focus of follow-up research. Third, the evolution of definition also reflects the changes of technology. Social networking sites are essentially evolving with technological updates. In the following, we will focus on the definition of social networking sites in this paper and the revision of this definition in subsequent research.

In boyd and Ellison’s review, as of 2007, social networking sites have experienced three stages of development. Sixdegree.com, established in 1997, is regarded as the starting point of social networking site. However, perhaps because it was too ahead of the times, the site announced that it would stop operating in 2001. 2003 witnessed the second stage of the development of social networking sites. Many social networking sites have mushroomed and gradually become mainstream. One of the representative websites is MySpace, which we are familiar with. Then, in the third stage, the appearance of Facebook expanded the influence of social networking sites to a global scale. So, can we sort out a common clue for these different social networking sites? What are the similarities between them, which can be summarized under the same noun?

In this paper, the two authors define social networking sites as follows:

"We define social networking sites as an Internet-based service. It allows individuals (1) to establish a public or semi-public personal homepage in a closed system; (2) establish a connection with other users and present a list of contacts on the personal homepage; And (3) viewing and shuttling through the list of connections established by oneself and others in the system. The nature and naming of these links may vary from website to website. "

Next, we will briefly interpret these three characteristics:

1. Home page

The first keyword in the definition of social networking sites is the home page. Personal homepage is the pillar of social media and the basic unit and node of social networking sites, which is one of the most important differences between social networking sites, instant messaging tools and BBS. According to boyd and Ellison, the magic of personal homepage is that it allows users to "type themselves into being". For example, users need to fill in a series of questions on their personal homepage, such as head portrait, age, residence, interests, and a series of "about me" information. This process is self-sketching. Therefore, it is not difficult to understand why the research on self-construction and impression management in social networking sites has been launched since the 1990s and has become one of the core concepts of the research.

Step 2 connect

The second keyword in the definition of social networking sites is connection. The author thinks that the uniqueness of social networking sites is not that they allow individuals to meet strangers, but that they allow users to show their social networks. This is another important difference between social networking sites and instant messaging tools. What excites researchers is that this relationship has different names in different social media-Weibo calls it "fans", Twitter calls it "followers" and Facebook calls it "friends". So, what is the relationship between people in social networking sites? More interestingly, when social networking sites use the title "friend", how will the meaning of the word "friend" change quietly?

Step 3 shuttle

The third keyword in the definition of social networking sites is traverse. This word has at least two dimensions. First, people can shuttle through their friends lists and check their friends’ messages at any time, so they can establish their own relationship network; Secondly, people can often check who their friends have. Recall that when Sixdegree.com used the metaphor of "six dimensions" in naming, he actually expressed the value of the second layer of shuttle. Similarly, one of the visions of Tinder, a dating software, is to firmly believe that people with common friends are more likely to become friends. If we continue along this line of thought, we will surely meet Caroline Haythornthwaite’s classic research on "latent ties" in 2005. Of course, from another perspective, when you are shuttling with other people’s homepages, you are also being shuttled by others. This also explains why privacy and visibility will become an important clue in the research of social networking sites.

Since its publication, the paper I introduced to you has been cited by tens of thousands of follow-up studies, most of which focus on its definition of social networking sites. However, if we stand in today’s coordinates and look back at this definition more than ten years ago, we may feel some old traces of the times. With the evolution of technology, have these three keywords changed? After all, definition can only be responsible for defining "being", but not for predicting "becoming".

In 2013, boyd and Ellison joined forces again to update the three characteristics of this definition, which are briefly described as follows for your reference:

(1) The importance of personal homepage has been greatly reduced, and social networking sites have changed from homepage-oriented socialization to behavior-oriented socialization. Even if the homepage still exists, it is no longer a static self-description, but a dynamic combination of different types of status updates.

(2) Friend list no longer only describes the circle of friends of users, but more importantly, it shows a social graph of users through algorithms.

(3) Social networking sites provide more possibilities for shuttle. Users used to only use social networking sites to establish and maintain their own relationship circle, so shuttle is closed in nature. With the continuous introduction of new functions, this closeness has been constantly broken. For example, hashtags allow people to jump out of their circle of friends and meet strangers at a more public level.

Accordingly, boyd and Ellison also gave a new definition of social networking site:

Social networking site is a networked communication platform, in which participants (1) have a unique and identifiable personal homepage, which includes the content provided by users themselves, the content provided by other users, and the data content at the system level (2) can publicly display their social relationships and be browsed and shuttled by others (3) can consume, produce and/or interact with the content stream provided by contacts in the site.

This change in technology and culture can also be reflected in the purport of researchers, such as algorithms and privacy, tag community and other research topics have gradually emerged and highlighted. Of course, even if the definitions provided by boyd and Ellison are updated, it has been seven years since this article was written. What changes have taken place in the characteristics of social networking sites? What surprises can these changes provide for our research and thinking?

From this point of view, American scholar Jeff Pooley is right, and communication research is destined to be a humble undertaking, because the continuous updating and iteration of technology will make us push a stone up the mountain like Sisyphus in Greek mythology, and then see it roll back again and again until forever.

Note: It should be noted that the two authors used "Social Network Site" instead of Social Media. If we make a diachronic analysis of the researcher’s choice of "wording", we will find the characteristics of the times. Between 2003 and 2008, the word "social networking site" was used twice as much as "social media" in research papers. However, from 2009 to 2014, this relationship was reversed, and social media has largely replaced the term "social networking site". Social media is the result of the continuous expansion of technology developers. Compared with social networking sites, it has a wider extension, or social networking sites have now condescended to become a subset of social media. See McCay-Peet & Quan-Haase, 2017.

  Hekou Village, Xigu District, Lanzhou, Gansu Province is located at the intersection of Zhuanglang River and Yellow River, a tributary of the Yellow River. Thanks to its superior geographical location, it was once an important ferry in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, with developed water transport and merchants gathering.

  Hekou village has a regular layout and heavy accumulation. The quadrangle with "three halls, five mansions and three inverted seats, with two small rooms in the wing" embodies the regional characteristics of the northwest residential buildings, and the complicated and exquisite brick and wood carvings are impressive. Nowadays, the historical and cultural blocks restored with Hekou Village as the core not only provide poetic habitation for tourists, but also revitalize the ancient villages. Hekou Village was selected into the first list of traditional Chinese villages in 2012.

  Starting from the center of Lanzhou, across the Hekou Bridge, the mountains are getting higher and the water is getting wider, and an ancient folk house hidden between mountains and rivers is Hekou Village. Overlooking from a height, the Lotus Mountain surrounding the village is undulating. In the distance, the colorful Danxia scenic spot is set off like an oil painting by the blue sky; Nearby, the rushing Yellow River water came from Bapan Gorge across the mountains and mountains, and went eastward along the river in the south of the village.

  Thanks to its superior geographical location, Hekou Village was once an important ferry in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, with developed water transport and merchants gathering.

  Time flies, things change. Estuary has already weakened the function of "ferry" and ushered in a new identity — — Hekou ancient town, which is a historical and cultural block restored with Hekou village as the core. Here, people can not only watch the Ming and Qing architecture with rich regional characteristics, but also stroll along the banks of the Yellow River, read the history of the ancient ferry, and enjoy the quiet, leisurely and desirable poetic dwelling.

  Four streets and seventeen lanes have a long charm.

  An area of Hekou Village, about 1000 meters long and nearly 500 meters wide, includes the main traditional buildings in the village. Although the area is small, the planning is extremely neat: four main streets in the southeast and northwest are centered on the Bell and Drum Tower and extend in different directions; On the four main streets, there are also 17 lanes with different lengths. This area was named "Four Streets and Seventeen Alleys".

  The bell and drum tower, the center of "Four Streets and Seventeen Alleys", faces east and west, and is divided into upper and lower floors. It is an attic building with four corners and a roof. Standing on the bell and drum tower, you can see the whole Hekou village from all directions. The houses with wooden doorways stand opposite each other, the streets paved with bluestone slabs meander and stretch, the gauze lanterns hanging on the streets sway with the wind, and groups of tourists stroll in the streets.

  Facing the Yellow River, backed by mountains, controlling Hexi … … The superior geographical location has made Hekou village a transportation hub very early. For more than 2,000 years, there have been estuaries in the history of Huo Qubing’s Western Expedition and Zuo Zongtang’s Pacification of Northwest China. Talking about the origin of the estuary, the old people in the village can be summarized as "originated from the Han Dynasty, developed in the Ming Dynasty and prospered in the Qing Dynasty". By the beginning of the last century, the agriculture, handicraft industry and transportation industry in Hekou were quite large, and it became a major business town in Lanzhou.

  With the prosperity of commerce and trade, the face of Hekou village has also changed. Since the mid-Qing Dynasty, Hekou has built a large-scale rammed earth city and built a four-door tower.

  Nowadays, walking in the village seems to be a shuttle in history: 300 years of grain shops, 200 years of ancestral temples and more than 100 years of Zuo Gongliu pass by in turn; It seems to be relaxing in the garden: every household in Hekou village plants flowers and grass in front of and behind the house, and even in autumn, it is still fragrant and green; It’s also like wandering in the flavor market: attractive specialty snacks are sold on the street, with sweet and sour gluten on the pulp surface, potato balls that have been beaten for thousands of times, and oil jugs with flax fragrance … … "When it comes to holidays, shop owners are as busy as a bee." Zhang Wei, deputy director of the property office of Hekou Grand Scenic Area, said.

  Old houses in Ming and Qing Dynasties are antique and fragrant.

  The excitement in Hekou village usually happens after 3 pm. Villagers who have taken a nap have left their homes, and old people gather in the square, or play chess or chat; Children hold toys and play with each other. Foreigners who come here often choose to pedal a four-wheeled sightseeing bus to start a "shopping" trip.

  The main street of Hekou Village is dominated by old-fashioned shops, and the shops along the street are mostly in the pattern of front shops and back houses. The typical style of the back house is quadrangle.

  Pushing the door into a family, Zhang Mingyou, the head of the household, greeted him warmly. The quadrangle in front of us covers an area of more than 500 square meters and has a history of nearly 200 years. It has lived in the Zhang family for 13 generations.

  In the north is the upper house, which is inhabited by elders, also called the main room or the main room; On both sides of the main room are the wing rooms, which are used for cooking and stacking sundries; The east and west sides are wing rooms, which are inhabited by the younger generation; To the south is the lower hall, which is a three-room eaves house; Open a street gate next to the next hall as the exit of the courtyard. Wu Kuijun, a technician of Gansu Classical Construction Group Co., Ltd., introduced that the local layout of this courtyard was summarized as "three halls, five buildings and three inverted seats, with two small rooms in the wing". "Here ‘ Three ’ ‘ V ’ All refer to the number of rooms. " Wu Kuijun introduced that in addition to the street gate, all four doors of this quadrangle are open in the direction of the courtyard, which is beautiful and practical, taking into account privacy.

  The roof is a feature of the local quadrangles. After careful observation, it is found that the roof of Zhang Ming’s home is a single slope with a gentle slope. "This kind of roof is quite common in northwest provinces such as Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia, which is mainly related to less precipitation and relative lack of wood." Meng Xiangwu, an associate professor in the Department of Architecture, School of Design and Art, Lanzhou University of Technology, introduced. Different from South China and Central China, the amount of tiles used in local traditional houses is less, and the roofs are mostly paved with square bricks, and only a small amount of drip tiles are used at the eaves to prevent the walls from being splashed by rain. Due to the gentle slope of the roof and the square brick paving, the single slope roof also undertakes the function of drying grain.

  Hekou Village is also amazed by the complicated brick and wood carvings, from the entrance of the house to the wall, from the hall to the wing, from the foot of the wall to the eaves, from the door leaf to the window, there are exquisite patterns everywhere: carved dragons, blooming petals, and so on. "As a living folk art, brick and wood carving is an important witness in the history of the development of Hekou architecture, which reflects the exquisite skills and creative enthusiasm of craftsmen." Wu Kuijun said.

  At present, there are 21 ancient dwellings in Hekou Village that are still inhabited by Zhang Ming. In order to protect these "solidified history", in 2014, Xigu District of Lanzhou City started the protective restoration and construction project of historical and cultural blocks, and successively invested 250 million yuan to transform the wall facades of 115 residential houses along the street in Hekou Village and 313 residential houses in the core area, and protectively repaired 37 ancient residential houses.

  In the past, the Yellow River crossing became famous today.

  Hekou village is built by the river and prospers because of the river. The Yellow River is the soul of the estuary.

  Go down the steps along the south street and cross the south gate, and you can see the wide Yellow River. Flocks of waterfowl fly freely against the water, and reeds born near the water shake with the wind. On the shore, an east-west wooden trail stretching for about 5 kilometers lies in front of us. It is called "Golden Shore of Shili Yellow River" by local people, and there are historical sites such as Gudu District and Gucun District along the way.

  Coming to the hydrophilic platform, the river breeze blows gently. Looking into the distance along the direction of Zhang Wei’s finger, a river bend came into view. "That’s the best berth for the ancient crossing at the estuary ‘ Yangchangwanzi ’ It was an important cargo distribution center in the northwest at that time. " Zhang Wei said that at that time, people’s daily necessities, such as coal, wood, Chinese medicine, grain, oil residue and hemp stalks, could be bought in the dock market. More than 60% of the residents in Hekou are engaged in water transport, and the main source of income is to rely on waterway terminals. There are more than 200 sheepskin rafts in Gudu, Hekou.

  Xigu District Folk Museum located in Hekou Village shows the production technology of sheepskin raft. This ancient Yellow River watercraft is made of goatskin, which is soaked in oil and salt, dried and blown into skins. A larger raft needs more than 600 skins and can carry 20 tons of goods. Small rafts are made up of more than a dozen skins, which can be driven by one person, so they are light and flexible.

  After the founding of New China, the local water transport was gradually replaced by the "Tiegongji", Hekou Village lost its position as a transportation hub, and the sheepskin raft also withdrew from the historical stage. However, from the restored customs site, we can see the busyness of the ferry in the past.

  Hekou Village, which thrives on water, is now starting a "water article" again around the Yellow River culture: protecting the ecological environment on both sides of the Yellow River, developing water rafting projects on the Yellow River, and creating an immersive performance of "Memory Pangu" & HELIP; … In recent years, relying on the construction of beautiful countryside, Hekou Village has encouraged villagers to open farmhouses, serve tourist bowls and eat ecological meals. Many villagers have transformed their yards into "river view rooms" to attract tourists to stay.

  The 59-year-old Zhang Hegong named the farmhouse "Good as Water" and used his painting skills to dress up the yard like a painting: bamboo, goldfish, ancient trees and safflower. Here, visitors can not only view the scenery, but also see the strange stones of the Yellow River, enjoy fine paintings and calligraphy, play with the root carving of Thuja, or sit in the yard reading, writing, chatting and drinking tea, and spend a rare leisure time. At present, Hekou Village has opened more than 60 farmhouses, with 1/5 residents in the core area participating.

  The first batch of traditional villages in China, famous historical and cultural villages in China and the fourth batch of beautiful and livable villages in China … … In recent years, there are more and more business cards of "national prefix" in Hekou village, and the names are getting louder and louder. The ancient village is full of vitality again, and the ferry in the past reappears the hustle and bustle of the past. Last year, the number of tourists in Hekou Village exceeded 2 million. "Next, we will increase the protection of traditional culture, promote the upgrading of village facilities, and strive to build the estuary into a model for rural revitalization." Zhang Wei said.

  ■ Tips

  Hekou village is suitable for tourism all year round, and relatively speaking, it is best when the flowers are warm in spring or the autumn wind is cool.

  When you arrive at Hekou Village, you can visit the Folk Museum first to learn about the history of the ancient village. After that, visit the ancient village landmarks such as Bell and Drum Tower, Zhanggong Temple and Zixiang Chess House along the main street. In the evening, you can go to the "Golden Shore of Shili Yellow River" to find a farmhouse near the river, blow the river wind, have a rest and have tea, and then order some special foods such as firewood chicken, fish wrapped in paper, oil pot noise and potato stir-ups, so as to enjoy a slow life.

Put "good luck" on your body | History and Talk Community

  The word "auspiciousness" first appeared in "Zhuangzi’s Human Life": "Empty room gives birth to white, and auspiciousness stops". Auspicious patterns are formed by the accumulation and precipitation of various ethnic groups in long-term social activities, and their themes directly come from production and life and are deeply rooted in people’s hearts. Through auspicious patterns, we can see Chinese’s life consciousness, aesthetic taste, feelings of home and country and national character.

  andAuspicious patterns of harmonious symbiosis

  The auspicious patterns originated from the combination of simple nature worship and psychological needs of Chinese ancestors in the early days. In the process of adapting to and transforming nature, people are puzzled by natural phenomena such as the sun, moon, stars, wind, rain, thunder and lightning, so they regard all things in nature as gods, and have reverence and primitive worship for nature, so they paint, weave, dye and embroider auspicious patterns such as auspicious birds, animals, flowers, birds, fish and insects on clothes to pray for the protection of the gods. This cultural phenomenon is constantly derived and developed with the exchanges and exchanges between various ethnic groups, which constitutes the world outlook of harmonious coexistence between man and nature in the Chinese nation.

  As auspicious patterns in China traditional costumes, dragon and phoenix patterns are deeply loved by people of all ethnic groups. According to their cultural traditions and aesthetic tastes, all ethnic groups process and utilize them, and combine them with various natural images to create new variant patterns.

  The blue silk brocade robe of Manchu nationality in Qing Dynasty collected by the National Costume Museum of Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology is woven with eight pieces of golden dragons, with auspicious patterns such as ruyiyun, bat, longevity peach and eight auspicious patterns. The weaving process is exquisite and the patterns are vivid. The hem of the dragon robe is decorated with precious stones, which stand on the rolling water waves, meaning that the mountains and rivers will be forever solid and peaceful throughout the world.

  In contrast to the majestic and solemn images in Manchu robes, the dragon and phoenix patterns on the wedding dresses of Han women with flat gold, silver and dragon patterns from the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China show a festive and peaceful scene. On the wedding dress, it is a woman’s gown embroidered with dragon and phoenix patterns in blue satin and gold and silver, and a horse-face skirt embroidered with dragon and phoenix patterns in red satin and Ping Jin is assembled below. The left and right dresses are embroidered with auspicious patterns such as dragon, phoenix, mandarin duck, peony, lotus and Xiangyun, which are symmetrically distributed around the front of the door, forming a composition style of "dragon to phoenix", which is gorgeous and rich.

  ▲ Han people’s flat gold, silver, dragon and phoenix female wedding clothes.

  The dragon and phoenix patterns in Zhuang brocade can be divided into figurative and abstract patterns, which are mainly combined forms such as dragon-to-phoenix, dragon-to-phoenix, and double dragon-to-pearl, which together with other animal and plant patterns form a complete pattern. The folk saying of Zhuang nationality, "Ten Zhuang brocade and nine phoenixes are alive like phoenixes coming out of brocade", vividly reflects the Zhuang people’s worship and love for phoenixes.

  The brocade of dragon, phoenix, lion and deer pattern of Zhuang nationality in Guangxi is woven with auspicious birds and beasts such as dragon, phoenix, chicken, lion and deer, and the pattern colors of blue, green, red, purple and pink are particularly eye-catching on the orange background. Zhuang people often use flowers instead of pearls for dragon patterns, and the combination of dragon and phoenix and flower tree patterns highlights the exchange and blending of strong and strong folk cultures.

Dragons can be combined with snakes, insects, fish and other animals. Bird patterns include fish-tailed bird patterns and dragon-tailed bird patterns, and the decorative style is full of simple and naive beauty.

  The collection of Guizhou Pingyang-style birds’ clothing is a costume worn by the local Miao people during the drum festival. The fabric of the clothing is silk, with silkworm brocade as the base material in the middle of the back, Ping Xiu dragons, birds, phoenixes, fish, butterflies, flowers and other patterns on it, and the ribbon skirt is decorated with white bird feathers and pearl ornaments of Coix seed, which has a strong sense of ceremony and obvious decorative effect.

  Fu Lu shou Xi

  Character decoration with the same origin of painting and calligraphy

  Characters are the symbol system used by human beings to record languages, and the art of Chinese characters is an important carrier of Chinese civilization. For thousands of years, the formation and development of the pluralistic and integrated pattern of the Chinese nation has largely benefited from the continuous and in-depth exchanges and exchanges between people of all ethnic groups in the common Chinese characters. This highly symbolic and visualized character has a broad mass base and cultural identity advantages.Therefore, directly decorating auspicious and beautiful words and sentences as patterns has become a major feature of Chinese traditional costume culture.

  According to archaeological data and documents, the decorative application of characters on textiles can be traced back to the early Western Han Dynasty. Inherited from generation to generation, especially in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, such characters as Fu, Lu, Shou, Xi, Cai, Gui and Ji were widely used as decorative patterns in clothing and textiles by various ethnic groups because of their direct expression, such as a hundred-year-old picture, a hundred-year-old picture, a double happiness picture and so on. The decorative art of auspicious characters is easy to understand and intuitively reflects the artistic creativity and imagination of people of all ethnic groups.

  The collection of Qing Dynasty Han people’s azurite satin embroidered "Fu Ru Dong Hai Shou Bi Nan Shan" pattern belly pocket, the fabric is made of azurite pigment satin, and the center is embroidered with mythical figures and beasts symbolizing longevity, such as Antarctic Xianweng, deer and crane. Around Ping Xiu, the eight Chinese characters "Fu Ru Dong Hai Shou Bi Nan Shan" are embroidered with pomegranate, grapes, preserved melons, bergamot, gourds and peaches, which means many children and many blessings.

  ▲ Han azurite satin embroidery "Fu Ru Dong Hai Shou Bi Nan Shan" pattern belly pocket.

  In the collection of the Qing Dynasty, the purple silk clothes with the pattern of dark flowers were woven on the purple silk material, and the black satin edge inlaid with the skirt and the white sleeves on the cuffs were embroidered with the word of three blue. "Xi" is an auspicious character formed by the combination of two separate words "Xi", which means "happiness is added to happiness". This garment, in terms of fabric material, pattern theme, embroidery technology and decorative style, reflects the exchange and integration of Han nationality in clothing culture at this time, which also directly affected the etiquette fashion and aesthetic orientation of folk women wearing clothes at that time.

  Tujia brocade is also called "Xilankapu", which means "flower bedding". Beautiful brocade, like a girl’s face, is an important way to show diligence, intelligence and personality to relatives and friends, and it is also a necessary dowry at the wedding. Tujia people don’t have their own characters, and they have long used Chinese characters because of their early contact with Han people in history. In Qing dynasty, "returning to the native land" further promoted its exchanges and exchanges with all ethnic groups.

  The brocade quilt of Fu Lushou, a Tujia nationality in Hunan Province, is mainly composed of auspicious characters such as Fu, Lu, Shou and Xi, which are filled in the diamond-shaped geometric skeleton, decorated with swastika characters along the border, and set off the character patterns with contrasting colors such as red, green, blue, yellow, blue and white, black and white, and the colors are full and gorgeous.

  It is worth mentioning that the brocade arranges the characters in positive and negative mirror symmetry, emphasizing "painting with words" and giving auspicious characters more flexible changes. It is in the process of cultural exchange and blending of all ethnic groups that the diversified and integrated national costume art is formed.

  Auspicious figures

  till/extremelyHumanistic idea of beauty being good

  In national costumes, figure patterns bear a nation’s historical memory and value orientation. The theme of figure patterns in traditional costumes mainly includes mythical figures, historical figures, folk figures and portraits of beautiful women. The story behind the characters has always played a role in rallying people’s hearts and promoting unity in different times.Putting history on the body is not only a symbol to show cultural characteristics, but also to connect the past with the present life and realize the harmony and unity between man and heart.

  The collection of Han people’s blue satin multicolored embroidered twelve groups of women’s jackets with wide sleeves is based on the theme of Guo Ziyi, a figure in the Tang Dynasty, and the twelve groups of figures are colored embroidered: the middle of the dress is embroidered with a pattern of Guo Ziyi’s birthday; Embroidered characters on the front sleeve and the bottom show the elegant character of ancient literati through the scene combination of characters touching the piano, playing chess, writing and enjoying paintings. There is an embroidered pattern on the back of the dress to celebrate the birthday of the couple, which shows the scene of Guo Ziyi’s son and daughter-in-law celebrating their birthday hand in hand. There are six embroidery patterns on the shoulders, back sleeves and bottom of the clothes. The figures in the patterns extend the meanings of "three levels of promotion", "high position in the position of Lu", "evergreen", "opening an hundred sons", "good luck in the year" and "sending seals for promotion" through different birthday gifts, and express their feelings.

  There are many decorative figures in Miao costumes in Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture of Guizhou. The Miao people’s figure-patterned children’s tops in Ping Huang, Guizhou Province are also called "little people’s clothes" or "children’s clothes" locally. The garment body is embroidered with two kinds of ancestor patterns, large and small, which represent the Miao ancestors who protect the family’s peace.

  The figure pattern is also the most representative theme in the traditional clothing pattern of Li nationality in Hainan. In the tapestries of five branches of Li dialects, there are many figures depicting ancestor worship, production and life, love and marriage. Among them, in the traditional costumes of Rundialect, the image of ancestors was created into geometric humanoid patterns, and the Li people’s recollection of ancestors was reflected through a large number of repeated layouts.

  The Shuang Mianxiu women’s dress in the collection of Li nationality in Hainan is a typical dress of Rundialect women. The pattern style is simple, and it is embroidered by Shuang Mianxiu stitch. The pattern decoration on the dress is concentrated in the easily worn places such as neckline, sleeve edge, sides of the dress and hem, and the stitch is fine, which not only expresses the decorative metaphor, but also reflects the practical function of the pattern.

  ▲ Shuang Mianxiu, a Li nationality in Hainan, wore the first dress.

  There is also an auspicious figure pattern created in the traditional costumes of the Han nationality to pray for children’s reproduction and life inheritance — — Baby play pattern. Among the cultural relics in the collection, there are two Zi Ying opera-patterned tops in Qing Dynasty.

  One is a red jacquard silk multicolored embroidered group python boy zodiac sea water pattern gown, with 50 sets of baby play patterns embroidered all over. The boy stepped on the pattern of golden flowers and gourds, holding mascots such as Ganoderma lucidum, osmanthus, lotus, blessing characters, copper coins and blessing lanterns, and his expression was vivid and lively.

  The other is a double-breasted blouse with flowers, green satin and gold, which is woven into a total of 100 children. They beat drums and gongs, set off firecrackers, or danced with lions and played with fans, and also showed scenes such as Gemini playing lotus and sending officials and blessings. The patterns of the ancient philosophers are supplemented by auspicious patterns such as rich peony, beaming, and Fulu Nanshan.

  ▲ Han nationality flower blue satin woven gold baizi pattern double-breasted female jacket.

  Baizi pattern is a pattern that shows children’s play. It originated from the allusion of Zhou Wenwang’s birth of an hundred children in The Book of Songs, and later evolved into a pattern that symbolizes the prosperity of a hundred children and a thousand grandchildren. It is a very popular pattern theme among the people, and it is also a well-established auspicious decoration on wedding utensils in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Many pieces of ancient clothes worn by the Empress were also unearthed in Dingling of Ming Dynasty in Beijing, which reflected the concept of praying for happiness in all levels of agricultural civilization.

Deeply grasp the spiritual characteristics of the supreme leader’s cultural thought, integrity and innovation

    Adhering to integrity and innovation is an important "password" for scientific theory to keep its vitality forever. In the new era, the Communist Party of China (CPC) people regard "upholding integrity and innovation" as a scientific method to promote theoretical innovation, which opens up a new realm of the modernization of Marxism in China. Culture is the soul of a country and a nation, and it is the field that needs to be upright and innovative most. The cultural thought of the supreme leader is the theoretical achievement of innovation and development in keeping integrity, which embodies the spiritual characteristics of keeping integrity and innovation. Under the guidance of the supreme leader’s cultural thought, our party and people have strengthened their cultural self-confidence and made historic achievements in promoting cultural construction. Focusing on the new cultural mission of the new era, we must persist in recognizing ourselves by being upright, be firm in our direction, grasp the present and meet the future with innovation, and strive to contribute to the construction of the modern civilization of the Chinese nation.

  The cultural thought of the supreme leader is a great achievement of keeping integrity and innovation.

    A history of the modernization of Marxism in China is the history of the Communist Party of China (CPC) people promoting the new development of Marxism in the process of innovation. Marxism is not only a scientific theory, but also a developing and open theory. In the extraordinary course of more than a hundred years, our Party has repeatedly stressed that the basic principles of Marxism must be observed, and at the same time, it has to "write new works and form new theories" to promote the continuous development of Marxism as a sacred duty and constantly write a new chapter in the modernization of Marxism in China. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, our Party has put forward and adhered to the fundamental approach of "two combinations", enriched and developed Marxism with brand-new ideological content, founded Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in a new era, and achieved a new leap in the modernization of Marxism in China. As the cultural chapter of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, the Supreme Leader’s cultural thought is an important theoretical achievement of upholding integrity and innovation.

    "Keeping the right" means sticking to the truth and the right path. The "correctness" of the supreme leader’s cultural thought is embodied in his persistent adherence to Marxist cultural theory and socialist cultural direction. This thought always adheres to the Marxist cultural ideal and value pursuit, insists on observing and thinking about cultural issues with historical materialism, and clearly opposes historical nihilism and cultural nihilism; Efforts should be made to consolidate the guiding position of Marxism in the ideological field and adhere to the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s cultural leadership and the fundamental direction of socialist cultural development. The "integrity" of the supreme leader’s cultural thought is also reflected in the conscious inheritance of Chinese excellent traditional culture. This thought puts forward and adheres to the fundamental requirements of "two combinations", summarizes and refines the outstanding characteristics and cultural essence of Chinese civilization, and emphasizes the consolidation of the cultural subjectivity of the Chinese nation in consolidating the foundation, cultivating the source and dredging the flow, which has laid a solid cultural foundation for the development and progress of contemporary China and polished the distinctive cultural characteristics of Chinese civilization’s exchanges with the world.

    "Innovation" means the courage to explore and open up new horizons. The "innovation" of the supreme leader’s cultural thought is embodied in his creative revelation of the law of socialist cultural construction and his innovative guidance of contemporary China’s cultural development practice. This thought keenly grasps the new development of the times and the new changes of the world situation and national conditions, and puts forward a series of new ideas, new viewpoints and new conclusions around major theoretical and practical issues in the field of cultural construction, such as theoretical armed forces, public opinion propaganda, ideological and moral construction, cultural literature and art, network construction and management, and foreign propaganda work, which has enabled our party to reach a new height in its understanding of the laws of cultural construction in Socialism with Chinese characteristics.

    "Correctness" and "innovation" complement each other and are dialectical unity. The cultural thoughts of the Supreme Leader not only adhere to the "ancestors", but also speak a lot of "new words". On the basis of the present, they integrate history and focus on the future, condensing the essence of Chinese culture and China spirit, and have made original contributions to enriching and developing Marxist cultural theory and inheriting and developing Chinese excellent traditional culture.

  The spirit of integrity and innovation runs through the cultural thought of the supreme leader.

    At the symposium on cultural inheritance and development, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized three aspects on how to continue to promote cultural prosperity, build a cultural power and build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation at a new starting point, namely, strengthening cultural self-confidence, upholding openness and tolerance, and persisting in integrity and innovation. Here, upholding integrity and innovation is not only one of them, but also the foothold of the three. To shoulder the new cultural mission in the new era is, in the final analysis, to create new glory of socialist culture in the process of integrity and innovation. It can be said that keeping integrity and innovation is not only the spiritual background of the formation and establishment of a series of original achievements in the cultural thought of the supreme leader, but also the spiritual characteristics that run through all aspects of the cultural thought of the supreme leader.

    The spirit of keeping integrity and innovation is embodied in the clear emphasis on cultural mission. The Communist Party of China (CPC) is a political party with a strong sense of cultural mission, and has always made unremitting efforts to build a new culture of the Chinese nation. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, our party has repeatedly stressed the need to shoulder new cultural missions and create new glories of socialist culture. At the symposium on cultural inheritance and development, the Supreme Leader further pointed out that "the best inheritance of history is to create a new history, and the greatest respect for human civilization is to create a new form of human civilization". "It is our new cultural mission to continue to promote cultural prosperity, build a cultural power and build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation at a new starting point." The spirit of being upright and innovative is embedded in the cultural mission we are shouldering: the culture we are committed to today is a new organic and unified cultural life formed by the combination of Marxist scientific theory and Chinese excellent traditional culture genes, and the cultural power and modern civilization of the Chinese nation we are committed to building are the continuation of ancient culture and civilization and the creative transformation and innovative development of excellent traditions. "Although Zhou was an old state, his life was reformed." Only by upholding the spirit of integrity and innovation can we deeply understand and consciously shoulder this new cultural mission and promote the rejuvenation of Chinese culture and civilization.

    The spirit of keeping upright and innovating is embodied in the perseverance of the cultural road. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed: "It is the only way to open up and develop Socialism with Chinese characteristics on the profound foundation of Chinese civilization for more than 5,000 years, and to combine the basic principles of Marxism with the concrete reality of China and the excellent traditional Chinese culture." Cultural construction is an important part of the overall layout of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s career, and "two combinations" is also the only way to build a socialist cultural power and create a new glory of Chinese culture. The fundamental path of "two combinations" itself clearly embodies the characteristics and requirements of being upright and innovative. "Combination" has laid a solid foundation for our way forward and given Socialism with Chinese characteristics a broader and far-reaching historical depth for its cultural development. "Combination" also gives us a cultural space for innovation, which enables us to master the ideological and cultural initiative, make full use of the valuable resources of Chinese excellent traditional culture and explore future-oriented cultural innovation.

    The spirit of keeping upright and innovating is embodied in the repeated exposition of cultural spirit. The spirit of integrity and innovation is an essential spiritual trait to support and lead a cultural system to move forward and flourish, and it is also an important content repeatedly mentioned and emphasized by General Secretary of the Supreme Leader when discussing cultural spiritual issues. Looking back at history, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader profoundly revealed the spirit of integrity and innovation contained in Chinese culture and civilization, emphasizing that "the Chinese nation is a nation of integrity and innovation" and that "Chinese civilization has the cultural subjectivity and vigorous vitality of self-development, responding to challenges and creating new opportunities"; Chinese civilization has outstanding innovation, which "fundamentally determines the enterprising spirit of the Chinese nation to be upright and not conservative, to respect the ancient and not to go back to the ancient". Based on the present and looking forward to the future, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader attaches great importance to the cultivation and promotion of the spirit of upholding integrity and innovation, emphasizing that "when I propose upholding integrity and innovation, I mean that I will not take the old road of being closed and rigid, nor will I take the evil road of changing my flag". "Cultural workers in the new era must continue the historical context and write contemporary Chinese chapters with the righteousness and spirit of upholding integrity and innovation". These important conclusions profoundly reveal the internal causes of Chinese culture and civilization from the perspective of keeping integrity and innovation, and provide important guidance for the cultivation and promotion of cultural spirit in the new era.

    The spirit of keeping upright and innovating is embodied in the practical requirements for all fronts in the cultural field. The cultural thought of the supreme leader is a systematic and complete scientific system. Adhering to integrity and innovation is not only an important thinking method of the supreme leader’s cultural thought, but also an important working method. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized that "for cultural construction, being upright can keep you from losing yourself and your direction, and innovation can keep you abreast of the times and lead the times", highlighting the significance of persisting in being upright and innovative. When the Supreme Leader General Secretary led the work in specific fields of cultural construction, he repeatedly emphasized the principles and requirements of upholding integrity and innovation. For example, he emphasized that propaganda and ideological work in the new era should "persist in striving for progress while maintaining integrity and innovation", and hoped that literary and art workers would "grasp the relationship between inheritance and innovation, learn from the past and break the law, so as to make Chinese excellent traditional culture an important source of literary and artistic innovation" and exhorted cultural industry practitioners to "firmly grasp the correct orientation, persist in upholding integrity and innovation, and ensure the cultural industry. It can be said that the spirit of integrity and innovation runs through all aspects of the party’s deployment and promotion of propaganda and ideological and cultural work in the new era.

  Being upright and innovating is a distinctive feature of cultural construction practice in the new era.

    General Secretary of the Supreme Leader profoundly pointed out: "The theoretical leap is not reflected in the originality of words and expressions, nor in the self-consistency and self-proof of logic. In the final analysis, it should be reflected in answering practical questions and leading the development of practice." As an important theoretical achievement of upholding integrity and innovation, the supreme leader’s cultural thought integrates the spiritual characteristics of upholding integrity and innovation into all aspects of cultural practice in guiding the cultural development in the new era, leading to a breakthrough in promoting the construction of a cultural power.

    Stick to the soul of Marxism and write a new chapter in ideological work in the process of radical reform. Ideology determines the nature and direction of culture, which concerns the future and destiny of the party and the country. At the same time, China’s ideological field is facing new situation requirements, and it is necessary to focus on strengthening the cohesion and leading force of socialist ideology in the process of maintaining integrity and innovation. In practice, our party has established and adhered to the fundamental system of Marxism’s guiding position in the ideological field, insisted on promoting the modernization of Marxism in China with "two combinations", and promoted the party’s innovative theory in the new era with rich and diverse forms, paths and methods. Firmly defend the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s cultural leadership, fully implement the ideological work responsibility system, promote the construction and innovation of communication means, improve the communication power, guidance, influence and credibility of news and public opinion, and keep the Internet as the main position, main battlefield and forefront of ideological struggle to create a clear cyberspace; Promote the construction of discipline system, academic system and discourse system of philosophy and social sciences with China characteristics, adhere to the problem orientation, respond to the call of the times, and accelerate the construction of China’s independent knowledge system. In the unremitting efforts to break through simultaneously, stir up turmoil and promote the Qing Dynasty, the ideological situation in China has undergone an overall and fundamental change, and the cohesion and centripetal force of the whole society have been greatly improved, effectively consolidating the common ideological foundation of the United struggle of the whole party and the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country.

    Adhere to the roots of Chinese excellent traditional culture and create new glory of Chinese culture in the process of bringing forth the old and bringing forth the new. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Communist Party of China (CPC) people have taken a strong historical responsibility to vigorously carry out the inheritance and development project of Chinese excellent traditional culture, deepen the project of exploring the source of Chinese civilization, make full use of the new technologies and means brought by the development of modern science and technology to protect the roots of civilization, and strive to revitalize the strong vitality of Chinese excellent traditional culture; Carry forward the spiritual pedigree of the Communist Party of China (CPC) people with the great spirit of party building as the source, carry out the study and education of party history and the "four histories", innovate and carry out commemorative activities, commend national feats, and continue the red gene and red blood; Adhere to the people-centered creative orientation, guide literary and art workers to vividly reflect the changes of the times, the progress of China and the call of the people, promote the all-round development of cultural undertakings and cultural industries, carry out the project of benefiting the people through culture, and strive to meet the growing spiritual and cultural needs of the people. The series of measures focus on linking Chinese excellent traditional culture, revolutionary culture and advanced socialist culture, promoting the prosperity and development of Socialism with Chinese characteristics culture in the new era, promoting the widespread promotion of socialist core values in the whole society, significantly enhancing the cultural self-confidence of the whole party and the people of the whole country, and condensing more active spiritual strength for realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

    Adhere to the right path of human civilization development and show the new image of Chinese civilization in exchanges and mutual learning. The era background of the accelerated evolution and deep interaction of the "two overall situations" puts forward higher requirements for us to do a good job in cultural exchange and mutual learning of civilizations in the process of defending integrity and innovation. Our party is committed to seeking great harmony for the world, conforming to the general trend of the evolution of human civilization, based on the practice of Chinese modernization, adhering to the position of Chinese culture, proposing and practicing the concept of a community of human destiny, proposing global civilization initiatives, carrying forward the common values of all mankind, and dedicating its achievements in cultural innovation and creation to the world; Accelerate the construction of China discourse and China narrative system, speed up the construction of international communication ability, tell the story of China to the world and spread the voice of China; We will expand ways for civilized exchanges and mutual learning, strengthen international cultural exchanges with the help of public products such as the Belt and Road Initiative, and hold sports and cultural events such as the Winter Olympics and the Asian Games to provide a broad stage for world cultural exchanges and mutual learning. At present, China’s national cultural soft power and Chinese cultural influence have been significantly improved. China’s wisdom, China’s ideas and China’s spirit have been widely spread in the world, which have been understood, respected and shared by more and more people and made important contributions to the development and progress of human civilization.

  Being upright and innovating is the fundamental law to create a new culture worthy of our new era.

    Under the background of the accelerated evolution and deep interaction of the "two overall situations", cultural construction is facing new situations and new tasks. We must earnestly enhance our ideological recognition and action consciousness of leading the practice of cultural construction in the new era and new journey with the cultural thought of the supreme leader, take on new cultural missions with the integrity and spirit of being upright and innovative, and promote the cultural construction work to constantly show new weather and new actions.

    The first is to explore cultural practice with the spirit of integrity and innovation. All human social life is practical in essence. It is the foundation and premise to realize cultural prosperity and development to develop cultural practice in keeping integrity and innovation. On the basis of profoundly grasping the essential law of cultural change and adhering to the correct direction of cultural development, we should further carry forward the enterprising spirit of pioneering and innovation and the fearless character of bravely accepting new things, focus on deepening the reform of cultural system in practice, constantly explore new ways, models and methods of cultural practice, and continuously enhance cultural cohesion, enhance cultural creativity and expand cultural radiation. The great creation of the people is an inexhaustible source of cultural innovation. To develop cultural practice in innovation, we must always adhere to the principle of "walking with the people in the same direction", firmly base ourselves on the people’s vivid production and life practices, vigorously tap the wisdom and strength contained in the broad masses of people, respect the people’s initiative, and fully stimulate the people’s cultural creativity.

    The second is to cultivate cultural products with the spirit of integrity and innovation. Whether you can produce and create excellent cultural works is an important yardstick to test the cultural creativity of a country and a nation. Cultural masterpieces must be deeply rooted in the rich heritage of national culture. Without keeping the "righteousness" of historical context and losing national characteristics, it is impossible to produce cultural masterpieces that directly reach people’s hearts. At the same time, the cultivation of high-quality works should closely follow the tide of the times, and it is impossible to reflect the "change" of the development of the times with new content and new forms, and it is impossible to form vivid and vivid cultural products. As cultural workers in the new era, we should strengthen our historical and cultural self-confidence, persist in making the past serve the present and bring forth the new, make full use of new technologies and new means to stimulate creative inspiration, enrich cultural connotations, express thoughts and feelings, strive for perfection and innovation, and strive to form excellent works worthy of the nation and the times, so that the cultural tree rooted in historical context and bathed in brilliance in the era will blossom brilliantly.

    The third is to develop cultural theory with the spirit of integrity and innovation. Theory originates from practice and actively reacts to practice, blossoming and bearing fruit in close interaction with practice, and constantly blooming new vitality. The cultural thought of the supreme leader is an open, scientific and systematic ideological system, which will be enriched and developed with the gradual deepening of practice. We should strengthen the research and interpretation of the supreme leader’s cultural thought based on the practice of contemporary China’s cultural construction, deeply grasp its core essence, spiritual essence, rich connotation and practical requirements, and profoundly expound the generating logic and internal relationship of the principled theoretical achievements in this thought. "Marxism does not exclude all truth, no matter when and where it comes from, as long as it is truth, it can be used as a nutrient to enrich and develop itself." Enriching and developing cultural theory in the innovation of upholding integrity also requires us to face the world and the future, learn from others’ wisdom and make dialectical choices in the "sum of human knowledge" under the premise of firmly adhering to the "upholding integrity" of "two combinations", so as to promote the continuous enrichment and development of China-oriented and modernized Marxist cultural theory.
