Gu Hongming, an "old monster" who has a good command of Chinese and Western culture, published Chinese Spirit in English in 1915. He used his pen to safeguard the dignity of Chinese culture and change the prejudice of some Westerners towards China. The Spirit of the Chinese made a sensation in the West and was later translated into many languages.

              The main content of Chinese Spirit  includes what Chinese Spirit is.To understand the real Chinese and Chinese civilization, that person must be deep, broad and simple. Because the three characteristics of Chinese character and Chinese civilization are deep, broad and simple.

              From the details of real life, we can find that the Chinese spirit is everywhere. As long as we are good at observing, we can find it. So now we can answer the original question - what is the real Chinese? We now know that the real Chinese people are those who have the heart of deficit and the wisdom of adults and live a spiritual life. In short, the real Chinese have a childlike heart and adult wisdom. The Chinese spirit is a spirit of perpetual youth and an immortal national soul. What is the secret of the eternal youth of the Chinese people?If the spirit of the Chinese nation is a spirit of eternal youth and immortality, then the secret of the immortality of the national spirit is the perfect harmony of the Chinese mind and reason.

           There are some points in the book that I don't quite agree with. For example, concubinage and maintenance of "three inch golden lotus". But the essence of the book is worth learning from.

           Reading the book The Spirit of the Chinese People has a lot of feelings for me. We have learned a lot from it, and we have a lot of demands and expectations for our youth. In short, I found a direction for my life from reading this book.
