In the eyes of Westerners, the eastern nations advocate autocracy and are backward and conservative, but Japan soon broke away from Asia and entered Europe to become a developed country. The reason for this is that many Chinese have studied it, and there are different opinions. Some scholars believe that Japan’s success is related to its social structure, which is more similar to the West in tradition, and is not fortunate.
It can be seen that the importance of cultural tradition can determine the direction of a country.
So countless Chinese are also looking for new content in traditional culture, hoping to be in line with the West. For this reason, they can be described as “unscrupulous”. For example, some people praised the great Song Dynasty as a “virtual monarch Republic”. I don’t believe it. However, there are also contents that reflect modern values in Chinese traditional thoughts. Let’s talk about one today.
It refers to the period of Gu Gongfu, the former leader of the Zhou Dynasty. Of course, when it comes to the period of ancient Gongfu, if the age is a little later and the historical data is a little more authentic, it may not be reliable. In the real Chinese history, it is very difficult to find the content of modern values. It’s very good to see all the fictions. At least it shows that the ideological elites of this nation have thought about universal values.
Let’s go on. In the period of ancient Gongfu, the country was well governed. At this time, the Huns sent troops to attack and asked for money. Gu Gongyu’s father knew that he could not win the war, so he offered the money without saying a word. Soon the Huns came again. This time they wanted not only money, but also land and people. The people of Zhou were all angry and vowed to fight the Huns to the death. The rulers of later generations will certainly make an important speech at this time: “the Xiongnu imperialists want to invade our land and enslave our people. We will never allow them. From today on, no one, young or old, north or south, has the responsibility of guarding the land, and should have the determination to sacrifice everything. Anyone who dares to speak will be beheaded. Our national sovereignty will never be violated.”
However, Gu Gongyu’s father didn’t say so. His words made people tongue tied: “if there are people to build a king, it will benefit them. Today Rong and di are fighting with our land and people. What’s the difference between the people and me? The people want to fight with me and kill their father and son, but I can’t bear to do it.”
It means that the common people support the monarch in order to benefit themselves. It doesn’t matter who rules them. What is the difference between my rule and the Hun rule? If, because I want to rule, I drive them to fight and cause death, I can’t do it. God, this obviously explains the famous theory that human rights are greater than sovereignty.
With these words, Gu Gongyu took his relatives and secretly went to Qixia to settle down. It turned out that after those citizens knew about it, they all supported the old and the young, found Qixia, continued to support him as the monarch, and re established the country under Qixia.
After reading this, I can loudly announce that modern values are not necessarily the same as those in the West. China has had them since ancient times.
I don? even know how I ended up here, but I thought this post was good. I do not know who you are but certainly you’re going to a famous blogger if you are not already 😉 Cheers!
I’m writing to let you be aware of what a excellent experience my princess found visiting yuor web blog. She discovered a wide variety of things, with the inclusion of what it is like to have a great coaching nature to let many others without hassle know precisely some tricky subject areas. You truly did more than readers’ expected results. Thank you for offering those practical, trustworthy, informative and in addition easy tips about your topic to Janet.
Aw, this was a very nice post. In thought I would like to put in writing like this moreover ?taking time and actual effort to make a very good article?however what can I say?I procrastinate alot and by no means appear to get one thing done.
Thanks for the new stuff you have disclosed in your text. One thing I’d like to touch upon is that FSBO interactions are built over time. By releasing yourself to the owners the first weekend break their FSBO can be announced, prior to masses commence calling on Monday, you make a good interconnection. By mailing them methods, educational elements, free records, and forms, you become a great ally. By subtracting a personal interest in them in addition to their problem, you produce a solid relationship that, on many occasions, pays off once the owners decide to go with a broker they know and also trust – preferably you.
