This lecture is divided into two parts: "How to read Sun Tzu's Art of War" and "How to understand the thinking methods in Sun Tzu's Art of War". Professor Wang first gave a brief introduction to the classic "Sun Tzu's Art of War", which focused on explaining the differences between "Sun Tzu's Art of War", "Thirty-Six Strategies" and other foreign war studies works. He pointed out that "The Art of War" combines traditional Chinese philosophical thoughts and explains the basic point of "Tao is in the weapon, and it is used to control the art." At the same time, he compared "Sun Tzu's Art of War" with the "On War" written by the Prussian general Clausewitz in the 18th century, emphasizing the fundamental difference between the ideas of "war to end war" and "cautious war and anti-war" in Chinese military books and the Western view that "the fundamental purpose of war is to destroy the enemy."

During the explanation process, Professor Wang quoted from many sources and used historical stories to reflect on today’s reality. He cited cases of success and failure of Gome and Haier, warning us to pay attention to the important role of morality from ancient times to the present. He also used "The Debate of Harmony" as an example to explain many thinking methods in "Sun Tzu's Art of War". His words were full of his profound humanistic spirit and concern for current reality as a scholar of Chinese culture.
The lecture came to an end, and Professor Wang patiently answered questions from the students present. He criticized the unreasonable statement that "there is no China after Yashan" that was popular on the Internet. From the historical phenomenon that ethnic minorities entered the Central Plains through conquest wars but were eventually conquered by Chinese culture, he put forward the view that "China is not a geographical concept, not a blood concept, but a cultural concept", which effectively refuted the negative remarks of "there is no China after Yashan". At the same time, Professor Wang asked how to apply the philosophy of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" in reality, and warned everyone not to study for fame, but to maintain the pure love for knowledge and culture in their hearts, and to encourage their own virtue and quality at all times. He encouraged everyone to read more Chinese classical cultural works, and also recommended some books by cultural masters such as Feng Youlan and Zhang Dainian for students' reference.

Professor Wang Shouchang’s lecture enabled students to understand some knowledge about ancient Chinese philosophy and cultural thoughts through the book "The Art of War". This lecture does not stop at the surface text, but tells us about the background of the times when the work was created. From the perspective of people-centered thinking in traditional Chinese culture, we can learn about "The Art of War" and use history as a mirror to think and reflect on today's society through the crystallization of wisdom of ancient people. It allows students to realize the importance of classic books in guiding life, draw strength from these books that shine with the wisdom of the past, and gain insights into life. These classic books are like instructive and wise old men, always ready to tell us the true meaning of life.
