After more than four years of preparation by many experts and scholars, the British Museum has hosted a luxurious visual feast that will amaze all visitors. There are more than 20,000 pieces of Chinese cultural relics in the museum, including more than 300 pieces of treasures from the late Qing Dynasty in China, but these national treasures have no chance to be seen in the territory of China.
The British side that held the exhibition gave the exhibition a name - the Hidden Century. In the exhibition hall, the heads of statues with different expressions and lifelike expressions were impressively listed, perhaps because the whole body was not easy to transport, or could not be stolen, so they simply smashed the statue head down. How much of those exquisitely carved frescoes had to be destroyed in the process of being seized and cut by them to survive?
The exhibits in the Qing Dynasty Cultural Relics Exhibition Hall are the Qianlong Emperor's "Prosperous Territory", although it is a small map, but you can still clearly feel the vast spirit of the Chinese nation's landscape territory from the map.
These thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, and the foundation of 10,000 years, can be seen at a glance on this small map. It's just that the land area on this map is more than 13 million square kilometers, and now it is only 9.6 million square kilometers, a whole third less. These lost territories are now in **?Who has embezzled and occupied it again?Since ancient times, it is easy to start a business and difficult to keep a business, everyone is the same in a small family, if you want to keep the land under your feet, in addition to the whole country as one, you need the thunderous means of the rulers, extraordinary courage and wisdom and long-term development of the strategic vision.
Among the hundreds of exhibits, Cixi's personal belongings are the most eye-catching, and the dragon robe she wears is still as gorgeous and luxurious as new despite the erosion of time. To be precise, Cixi's dress should be called a phoenix robe, and the dress is completely propped up, and the patterns and colors on it are even more dazzling - lifelike. A huge phoenix spreads its wings and fills the space of the whole dress, implying that there is a phoenix. The feathers of the phoenix are all woven with gold thread, the embroidery is exquisite, and the pattern is so exquisite that people are reluctant to look away.
In addition to the phoenix robe, there are also various styles of Cixi's clothes, all of which are superb and exquisite. It's so beautiful that it's even more heartbreaking to watch. Cixi had to change more than ten sets of these elegant and graceful clothes every day, and at that time, there was a lot of war outside the palace, and the people were hungry and poor.
In addition to the clothes, Cixi's phoenix crown and various headdresses are still the most eye-catching presence in the exhibits. The vast majority of the audience stood in front of them in amazement, reluctant to leave for a long time. The various treasures on the phoenix crown are uniquely shaped, ingenious, brilliant, and extravagant. What's even more breathtaking is that in addition to the value of the jewelry itself, there are also craftsmen who can turn decay into magical expressive craftsmanship, and those flowers, birds, fish and insects have a strong three-dimensional sense, as if they are about to come out.
The pair of huge cloisonné vases that Pu Yi gave to George V were even more priceless, and their workmanship and exquisite elegance could not be measured in money. From the exaggerated and rich expressions of the foreigners' faces with wide eyes, you can get a glimpse of the exquisiteness of this pair of vases.
The shoes worn by Cixi, the fans she used, and the table lamps all revealed the luxury and delicacy of the royal family. But in front of so many beautiful cultural relics, no Chinese standing can develop a sense of pride, because these treasures are misplaced, it is not in the pavilion of the land of China, but in the place where it should not be;Its existence awakens the shame of the Chinese people and the most sensitive nerves of the Chinese people, and no Chinese can laugh when standing in front of these exhibits, and many Chinese people have left in tears.
Behind the luxurious exhibits of the Imperial Palace, there are years of war, the military salaries of the Beiyang Navy Division, the starvation in the fields under the smoke of gunpowder, the compatriots who have been corrupted and poisoned by opium, and the label of the sick man of East Asia. The original manuscript of Puyi's decree reflects the course of the last dynasty from glory to decline, and reflects the decline of the building.
The original version of the famous "Treaty of Nanjing" has also been made public by the British Museum, although the paper has been yellowed, but the years can not erase the traces of loss of power and humiliation of the country, let alone the death of the hearts of the people. Just below the exhibit, a line of small print can be clearly seen - this is an unequal treaty signed between China and the Great Powers;Who left this line?Could it be a Chinese minister?Whoever it is, one thing is for sure, it must have been left by a Chinese. At present, the proportion of cultural relics in China accounts for only one-tenth of those lost overseas, and Chinese are weighing how heavy this figure is. The treasure of the British Museum is our Chinese cultural relics, and Japan plundered Chinese cultural relics even more!
I really admire the courage of the British, who had no qualms about showing their banditry deeds, and the title they planned for this exhibition is Hidden Century, but these exhibits all show their history as bandits.
Even Americans can't stand their shameless behavior;A talk show actor in the United States angrily sprayed the British Museum on the show, robbed other people's things and openly showed them off.
The talk show actor said on the show that the British Museum is the largest museum in London, and the exhibits inside are really shocking. I couldn't help but exclaim, wow, these white people have stolen so much!(The audience burst into laughter.) ）
How did you steal so much?Oh my God, they stole them!It's horrible!(The audience burst into laughter, boos, applause, and screams). The exhibits in this museum are all stolen and stolen, (before the actors finished speaking, they were covered by the laughter of the audience), this is the real shamelessness, I say this is not racial discrimination, it is that they are really shameless.
The actor continued on stage that everyone steals, not only whites, but also blacks, but when others steal, they basically hide the stolen goods or sell the stolen goods, because they are afraid that the owner will come to the door at any time. Afraid that they will come and ask for things, the people who steal things will generally hide their things separately, put some here, hide some there, unlike the white British, who put all the stolen goods in one building;And build a castle for the stolen goods. By the way, if the owner wants to go in and see it, he has to pay for tickets to see what he has stolen. (The audience's laughter and applause drowned out the actors' voices.)
Everyone's eyes are clear, and no matter how much the initiators try to cover up and beautify the history that has happened, they cannot change the fait accompli. We have lost too many things left by our ancestors, in addition to those relics, territories, and countless cultural heritages. Can what is currently left in your hands be kept, and are you willing to cherish it?For example, the 120-year-old Xilang Printing Society actually selected six Japanese and one Korean as the top management, and let a Japanese be the president
Another example is traditional Chinese medicine, which has been suppressed and excluded in China, but foreigners have coveted it for a long time. The earliest was the Rockefeller consortium in 1915, and now the American Rihui Group, they officially launched a formal move to China's Hualiang Chinese herbal medicine base, investing 15 million US dollars specifically for the development of Jilin Changbai Mountain pharmaceutical resources, and there are bigger strokes later.
Japan has a long history of stealing and plundering traditional Chinese medicine resources, not only stealing traditional Chinese medicine formulas, stealing traditional Chinese medicine skills, and acquiring traditional Chinese medicine industries, but also the number of Chinese medicine projects that have been registered and patented in Japan has reached an astonishing number. Even South Korea is no exception, South Korea not only plagiarized Chinese cultural heritage, but also preemptively applied for registration of traditional Chinese festivals, in addition to many Koreans even absurdly claiming that Confucius was Korean.
Even Germany's Bayer Group is not far behind, and they spent 3.6 billion yuan to annex China's Dianhong Pharmaceutical Industry. This acquisition means that foreign capital has fully opened up the layout of China's traditional Chinese medicine industryIf traditional Chinese medicine is also controlled and capitalized by capital groups, what will become of traditional Chinese medicine, as a channel for the dissemination of traditional Chinese culture, once it is manipulated?After a hundred years of suppression, Chinese medicine has withered talents, and only some children of Chinese medicine families are left who study Chinese medicine Xi their hearts, and most of them are quacks on the market.
In the eyes of a truly good Chinese medicine practitioner, there is no such thing as cancer at all, because it has already been cured by those Chinese medicine practitioners before it forms a chronic disease.
Returning to the original theme, the first sentence of the British Museum's introduction to the Chinese exhibits is, "The Chinese have created the world's largest and longest civilization." Each of these exhibits is a living fossil that bears witness to Chinese history, and their existence reminds every Chinese not to forget that shameful history, and only by uniting and strengthening themselves can we stand tall in the forest of the world.
Most of the values of modern people are to make money by any means and rely on wealth to support the emptiness in their hearts. The only fun and self-confidence is that I am richer than you, you are more embarrassed than me, can you still live a little pattern!
There are many people who take the rhythm on the Internet, saying that the country's prosperity and strength are my business, and I just don't care if I have enough to eat. Here I would like to remind those people that before the liberation, everyone should know the sign that Chinese and dogs were not allowed to enter the Shanghai Concession, right?Looking at the world now, who would dare to make such a move again?Do you say that the prosperity of the country has anything to do with you ordinary people?If the country is poor and backward and there is a war, the people who are bullied and suffer are the first to sufferIn the event of a disaster, you don't expect the country to come to your rescue, whether you are pro-Japanese, pro-European, pro-Korean, will they come to save you?Okay, let's not be verbose, it's time to receive a scolding from those strangers in the background.
