It represents a kind of confidence in cultural inheritance and innovation, and embodies a national spirit and cultural consciousness." Professor Rong pointed out that cultural self-confidence is not only related to the spiritual lifeline of a nation, but also related to the choice of national development path and the continuation of civilization.

It is an important foundation for building socialist core values, enhancing national cohesion and cultural soft power.
