During the two sessions of the National People's Congress, cultural self-confidence became a hot topic of discussion among the deputies and members.
In recent years, the philosophical aesthetics of traditional oriental culture displayed by Chinese literary and artistic works have repeatedly amazed the world. From the dance drama "Only This Green" at the Spring Festival Gala of the Year of the Tiger, the dancers lead the audience through the millennium to appreciate the beauty of the rivers and mountains with their pens; to the embodiment of abstract poems at the opening ceremony of the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, the stage light moves with the shadows, and the momentum shows the world the "Chinese-style romance" of "the water of the Yellow River comes up from heaven"... These humanistic beauty, rooted in the "ancient" and innovative in the "present", have set off a boom again and again to resonate with the public, and have also deepened our inner cultural self-confidence again and again.
