Chinese civilization, the skin can be discarded, but the bones and muscles cannot be moved. Online cloud: There is no China after Yashan. This is a statement concocted by Japan in order to invade China, so don't worry about it. However, since ancient times, Chinese civilization has had strong vitality and has been able to absorb external nutrients to strengthen itself, keep pace with the times, and continuously innovate. Let us not ask: If Chinese civilization is so fickle, will it make itself disappear and no longer be Chinese civilization? Especially when Western civilization invades on a large scale, this is the hidden worry of every Chinese son and daughter. There is a good saying in "The Divine Whip": The whip cuts, but the gods keep it, and you can have unique skills wherever you go. No matter how Chinese civilization changes, as long as God remains unchanged, Chinese civilization will remain unchanged. All changes, the external surface can be changed and abandoned, as long as the spirit in the heart remains unchanged. This is called the skin that can be discarded, but the muscles and bones cannot be moved. What is skin? What are muscles and bones? Different people have different answers. The skin is the outer appearance, and the muscles and bones are the core. Just like finding a partner, your living habits, personal image, etc. can all change after living together and they can all adapt to each other. The only hard-to-change core is people’s outlook. It is the most painful thing for people with different views to come together and they cannot make do. Similarly, for Chinese civilization, living habits, etiquette, clothing, etc., are all superficial aspects that can be discarded; while the common will condensed by the Chinese nation's long-term common life is the core that cannot be discarded. There are many such common wills. For example, the feelings of family and country, the spirit of benevolence and righteousness, etc. With feelings of family and country, wearing a suit and a suit, my heart is still Chinese, and I never forget my home, country, and hometown. Like the idea of great unification, the tradition of putting the country before the family, the ambition to worry about the world's worries before the world's happiness, can all be called the feelings of family and country. Giving up money without being ignorant, drawing a sword to help, etc. can be regarded as the spirit of benevolence and righteousness. In other words, if the essence of the three traditional views of Chinese civilization remains unchanged, the core inheritance of Chinese civilization will remain unchanged. Perhaps, Chinese civilization today can be summarized in twenty-four words: prosperity, democracy, civilization, harmony, freedom, equality, justice, rule of law, patriotism, dedication, integrity, and friendliness. By the way, these are the core values of socialism.
