Xia Weibao’s face slightly sank, "These people are so shaless. Martial arts clearly belong to us Chinese, yet they claim it originated in Country A. Where’s their face?"
The just-arrived Zhuang Xuejun shook her head, a bit helpless, "This is the current state of Huaxia, our national consciousness is too weak.
People worship foreign things and disdain our ancestors’ heritage, thinking foreign monks chant better sutras.
So even consider foreign holidays more important than our traditional ones, leading to our traditional festivals being increasingly undervalued.
Didn’t Dragon Boat Festival almost get snatched away?"
Xia Weibao was dumbfounded, "Can it even be snatched?"
Zhong Shixia flicked her forehead, "You really don’t care about current events. Not only have traditional festivals been snatched, but even our ancestors almost had their nationality changed, claid to be from other countries, and our traditional calligraphy, sigh."
Zhai En couldn’t help but comnt, "I’m not biased towards foreigners, but from an outsider’s perspective, the fact that Huaxia’s traditional culture is being taken is sowhat self-inflicted. Not valuing it ourselves and carelessly losing it, who can we bla?
Take calligraphy, for example. In Country R, they hold grand calligraphy competitions almost every year, with elentary students skillfully wielding their brushes.
Now look at Huaxia, not to ntion elentary students, even among adults, how many can actually do calligraphy?
In Country R, learning calligraphy is fashionable, starting from elentary school, but what about Huaxia? It’s very few.
If you were an uninford outsider, which country would you think seems like the origin place?
Darling, don’t glare at , I’m also Chinese, naturally hoping Huaxia gets better. This kind of favoring Western culture while neglecting traditional culture is really not good.
If everyone could treasure traditional culture and continue to carry it forward, would others be able to snatch it away?"
Yan Lingyi was rather helpless. Indeed, the weak national consciousness and the decline of traditional culture are the main reasons things get taken.
Zhuang Xuejun frowned slightly, "In these years, the dostic economy has developed so fast, many foreign things have co in, dazzling us, and indeed traditional culture developnt has been neglected.
But it’s not that bad, the state has begun to pay attention to this issue, otherwise, there wouldn’t be the ergence of the National Studies Association.
Establishing the National Studies Association is about gathering people proficient in traditional culture together, isn’t it ant for promoting traditional culture?"
Xia Weibao, supporting her chin, understood, so this is the purpose of the National Studies Association.
Yan Lingyi looked at Zhuang Xuejun with appreciation, didn’t expect this young lady to see things so clearly.
Exactly, the establishnt of the National Studies Association is indeed for the purpose of promoting traditional culture.
Zhai En raised his hand slightly, glancing at Yan Lingyi, "Lady Lingyi, if I say so things, I’m afraid you might find offensive."
After all, the Yan Family’s status in Huaxia is akin to that of leaders.
Questioning national policy is akin to slapping the Yan Family’s face, isn’t it?
"Go ahead, let’s treat it as casual chat today."
Zhai En nodded, "Actually, I feel that establishing the National Studies Association and focusing on developing a portion of people proficient in traditional culture is fundantally a mistake.
Traditional culture belongs to everyone; true promotion is through the whole population learning, not just so people delving into it.
Even if researched thoroughly, without people learning it, is it just for display in a museum?"
Yan Lingyi was sowhat embarrassed, "Actually, the original intention of establishing the National Studies Association was to guide the public to learn, but nowadays people are so restless, it’s hard to inspire them."
