1. The Chinese nation has a long history and profound traditional culture, which makes Chinese people proud and is an important cohesive force of the Chinese nation; On the other hand, China, which has fallen behind in modern times, is moving towards modernization. Although China people's ideas, thinking, behaviors and lifestyles are undergoing great changes, and China culture is also undergoing all-round transformation and development, this transformation and development itself started from tradition. As a cultural form, China traditional culture has its own cultural value and scientific value.

2. The national culture is not static, it is constantly updated and developed in the unity of opposites with the development of the times, and it is also developing in its own unity of opposites. The Chinese nation is an ancient country with a civilization of 5,000 years, and it is also a country that advocates decoration. China's ancestors left different styles of decorative heritage in various historical periods. For example, the original painted pottery pattern is simple and atmospheric, and the frog pattern, fish pattern and vortex pattern summarized after long-term refining are full of vitality; Calligraphy art, tile pattern and portrait brick pattern in Qin and Han dynasties; Lacquerware decoration in the Western Han Dynasty takes black, red and gold as the contrast, and the overall shape is elegant and noble. The Tang Dynasty pioneered the pattern of grass-rolling plants in China, and the rich pattern of Tang grass changed subtly and harmoniously. The characteristics of ceramics in Song Dynasty are beautiful and elegant. Folk blue-and-white porcelain, with its impromptu ink and wash style, folk embroidery, paper-cut lace, auspicious patterns and other artistic forms, is simple in shape and bright in color. It is the crystallization of the rich imagination and artistic creation of working people in past dynasties in China and has high application value.

3. The main body of China's traditional culture is Confucian culture, and its modern value is first manifested in its openness to other cultures. This is a basic prerequisite for the development of China traditional culture and its role in modern society. However, the openness of traditional culture or Confucianism also has its specific significance, that is, it advocates the openness of each individual to the social country in which he lives and emphasizes the individual's sense of participation in the social country. This sense of participation is characterized by paying attention to the practical process of participation itself, rather than overemphasizing the current utilitarian results. Under the influence of this cultural model, people can endure suffering temporarily and work tirelessly, which can be said to be an important cultural driving force for China's modernization.
