Yu (the words without brackets are all Mr. Yu's words): China people have entered a nationalist concept if they want to wear "Hanfu"; Now that I have entered this concept, I would like to ask: where are the more than 50 ethnic minorities?
(Liu Xuma retorts: First of all, Yu Xiansheng made a mistake in concept. Hanfu is the traditional costume of the Han nationality, and the revival of Hanfu is to let the Han compatriots find their lost costume civilization, which has nothing to do with other nationalities. Therefore, there is no such thing as "everyone in China should wear Hanfu". The revival of Hanfu not only supports the revival of Hanfu, but also supports the revival and revitalization of ethnic costumes. )
If some people say that considering these ethnic minorities, they can be called "well-dressed" instead of "well-dressed", then further problems come again. Can your "Hanfu" absorb the dress elements of more than 50 ethnic minorities? If you don't learn from it, everyone will be hurt psychologically, only friction; If it's all absorbed, what kind of clothes should it be? Dare you wear it?
(Liu Sima retorts: Like the above question, Mr. Yu doesn't know Hanfu at all and doesn't know the significance of Hanfu's revival. Hanfu is Hanfu, which is only the clothing of the Han nationality, not the uniform clothing of the people of all ethnic groups in China, and there is no need to absorb the clothing elements of other ethnic minorities. Orthodox Hanfu is recognized as beautiful. Why doesn't anyone dare to wear it? Do you think our ancestors have been having a fever for thousands of years? )
The essence of all ultra-nationalist ideas is to deprive the broad masses of people of their ecological freedom with absolutism. China people have finally come to an era when they can freely choose food, clothing, housing and transportation. There are still literati playing with this slogan-like radical thought, deceiving the patriotic sentiments of ignorant people, reversing history and depriving people of their freedom.
(Liu Xuma retorts: If the revival of Chinese civilization forcibly interrupted by history is extreme nationalism and a retrogression of history, is it not necessary to protect China's traditional cultural heritage now? What Peking Opera, Crosstalk, Traditional Chinese Painting and Quyi are not protected? Is the Central University for Nationalities going to be dissolved? Feng Jicai is for the protection of national culture. Is he crazy? National is the world's. If Mr. Yu doesn't even understand this question, it's hard to imagine why he can become a famous cultural scholar. )
Naive young people don't know that if you accept the so-called "Chinese clothes" and "Chinese clothes", then, according to the inevitable logic, they will inevitably expel your leather shoes, Nike shoes, belts, watches and glasses, and further, they will make corresponding demands on people's furniture, electrical appliances and vehicles. This has entered the era of terror. Why does national extremism inevitably develop into terrorism? Just think about the logic of food, clothing, housing and transportation I just said. Let's reject terror together.
(Liu Sima retorts: No one will reject modern civilization because of the revival of Hanfu. Anyone who revives Hanfu knows that Hanfu is revival, not retro, but inheritance and protection of China traditional culture. If protecting national culture will cause terror, then let's simply dissolve all ethnic groups. Everyone * * * honors * * and, just like the Kuomintang in those days, thinks that all ethnic minorities are part of the Han nationality, but people who really understand culture and history know that that is true ignorance. Of course, there are some national extremism in the process of Hanfu revival, but that is not the mainstream of Hanfu revival. Just like everything will have a discordant side, the revival of Hanfu is inevitable. If Mr Yu insists that there must be no disharmony in Hanfu Movement, please read the History of China Revolution first. Were there no bad people and good people among China's ancestors? )
Some people say: "You can wear national costumes on weekdays!" My answer is: for a democratic, free and civilized country, the really important occasion must be a happy gathering of ordinary people in normal ecology. Once forced, it doesn't matter. For me, if there is a "major event" that requires me to wear the same clothes as others, I will definitely refuse to participate. At present, some activities require formal attire, which is reasonable. It just advocates a courtesy. The so-called "formal dress" has a wide range. Men can wear suits, tunic suits, double-breasted and embroidered traditional clothes, and women have a wider range.
(Liu Sima retorts: Even if Hanfu is revived, no one will force you to wear Hanfu. Mr. Yu is too sensitive. If the purpose of reviving Hanfu is to make people not free and to restore feudal society, then I don't think we need to support it. But as Mr. Yu said, it is polite to wear formal clothes on important occasions, and as a minority, they usually choose their own national clothes first. This is a patriotic feeling, especially for international activities, but also to show others their national culture. This is also the reason why Japanese leaders wear kimonos during their visits, if Mr. Yu doesn't agree with me. Because in the era of freedom, what clothes to wear, even streaking, is your personal business. )
2 Liu Sima refuted Yu's Hanfu remarks.
Nowadays, people wear suits for convenience, and there is no national consciousness of treason at all, just like wearing watches and glasses. In my opinion, it is a sin to provoke national consciousness where there is no national consciousness. As far as I know, many traitors who took the initiative to be guides when Eight-Nation Alliance invaded Beijing were ultra-nationalists who usually talked about the "Chinese ancestor system" the most, because all extremism is fragile and it will collapse faster than anyone else. On the contrary, those "foreign intellectuals" who had the most international vision during the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period were patriotic. Only Zhou Zuoren became a cultural traitor and always wore fine clothes. Thus, we can see that a group of traitors dressed in China's traditional costumes and full of China idioms are in sharp contrast with a group of patriots who wear suits and speak up for the dignity of the motherland in the international community in fluent English. All the narrow actions of formalism and the grandstanding of extremism show their lack of confidence in the culture of the motherland.
(Liu Xu's mother retorts: I'm surprised. Who were those foreign slaves with long braids and suits or traitors in Japanese military uniforms in the late Qing Dynasty? They should also be very foreign. Why didn't teacher Yu notice? As Mr. Yu said, "Only by going deep into the world and understanding other countries' civilizations can we know the value of Chinese civilization." Now it is precisely because we know the civilizations of other countries that we cherish our own national culture more and dare not give it up at will, because we already know the value of Chinese national culture, otherwise South Korea and Japan will not take away some of our cultural ownership. )
Twenty years ago, just after China's reform and opening up, a large number of China literati wrote articles demanding the expulsion of suits and jeans, and put the clothing issue in the political movement of "criticizing bourgeois liberalization" and "removing spiritual pollution". I remember the most "beautiful" article they wrote: "The imperialists used to call us pigs, but now they want us to wear cowboys, and they will definitely call us sheep and donkeys in the future!" They are even more excited about wearing suits, saying, "As China people, we strongly demand to wear clothes worn by Qu Yuan, Li Bai and Yue Fei!" However, they do not advocate wearing Sun Yat-sen's tunic suit with many buttons. After all, they want to restore the "Cultural Revolution clothes".
At that time, I was young and full of energy, and I knew too well the bewitch tactics of a large number of ultra-left literati. Fortunately, none of these people cheated the title of "professor" at that time, so I mobilized a group of the youngest full professors (few in number) in Shanghai to wear jeans and called them "cowboy professors" to suppress them. As for the suit, it is even more interesting. At the height of this group of scholars' enthusiasm, at a meeting, all the central leaders, starting from Mr. Hu Yaobang, appeared on the rostrum in suits and ties. After all, the approver is also trying to use extremism for political hype. If the central Committee is like this, it will not say anything. Mr. Deng Xiaoping didn't wear a suit when he came out, but it was reported on TV that when he went to Houston, USA, he generously put on a southern cowboy hat! This is bolder. I want to tell young netizens that before you were born, the clothing dispute in China ended like this. The current debate is nothing new, but a small continuation of that debate.
(Liu retorts: The above remarks fully show that Mr. Yu has a little knowledge of international thinking and life and the relationship with national culture. In the early days of reform and opening up, it is urgent to learn from western civilized economy. China has just come out of extreme isolation, and of course he should get rid of all interference to study. But this does not mean that Chinese civilization is useless. We don't know why that generation revived Hanfu, because of national indignation or other reasons, but the current Hanfu revival movement is by no means a continuation of that debate, let alone a small continuation. At present, the revival of Hanfu is not a total denial of western civilization and internationalization, nor is it out of nationalism, but a decision made after deep thinking about the loss of China's national culture, which is a rescue and inheritance of national culture. The revival of Hanfu is only a part of the protection of contemporary national culture. Meanwhile, I want to say that Deng Xiaoping is wearing a cowboy hat. This does not mean that we need to abandon our national culture and fully accept western civilization. In any country, we should respect other people's culture, just as foreigners should respect China's manners when they go to China. At the same time, no matter a country or an individual, when developed, someone will imitate you. Why did so many countries in ancient China learn China's culture because China was very developed at that time? Why did some people imitate the living habits and clothes of those leaders and stars? It is because he developed, and China is learning foreign culture now because the west is more developed than us. But if you completely deny yourself while learning from others, you will make the same mistake as completely denying traditional culture in the early days of liberation. Mr. Yu must remember that others' is always others', and his own is his own. Since the May 4th Movement, traditional culture has been halved by advocates of western culture. Nearly a century has passed, but we have not learned the essence of western culture and are getting farther and farther away from our own traditions. Mr. nan huaijin predicted more than 30 years ago that a country is backward in science and technology and can catch up quickly; A country's economic decline can also be remedied Only one country's culture no longer exists, which means that it is impossible to revive this country after the national subjugation. Several ancient civilizations in history were destroyed not by economy and technology, but by their own culture. This lesson should be borne in mind by the Chinese nation, and so should Mr. Yu as a celebrity. Don't always say that he has no culture, which will mislead the Chinese people. )

Of course, I must also look forward to it with pleasure: If any fashion designer can apply the aesthetic elements of China's traditional clothes to modern life clothes and be welcomed by the people, it will be a great thing, because it will increase people's choices. If some institutions and schools choose national uniforms and school uniforms, everyone will be happy. However, this is a lovely aesthetic design competition, not an authoritarian administrative order intervention.
(Liu Sima retorts: the revival of Hanfu needs administrative promotion, but it is not an administrative order, because the formation of a traditional culture is promoted by the people and the government. It would be absurd without the conscious participation of the people. )
What's more, in the era when most clothes in Europe and America are already made in China, and in the frenzy of anti-dumping against China clothes in many parts of the world, does it make people feel a little too pretentious to call for Hanfu?
(Liu Sima retorts: I really don't understand what this has to do with the revival of Hanfu. Please ask Mr. Yu to explain it carefully. Does Mr. Yu think that there are too many clothes in China, so we can't produce other clothes? If so, don't we even produce other clothes? But Mr. Yu should remember that the current competition is the competition of technology and characteristics. China products are treated like this because China products are not competitive and lack scientific and technological content and characteristics. The more ordinary sportswear you produce, the more you have left, which costs only a little money, but if it is brand clothing, the value is high. Similarly, as a unique clothing, it can not only be used as a tourist product, but also as an exotic gift, and even has collection value. If Hanfu determines its position, good workmanship and materials, it will have strong market competitiveness. Kimono can sell for hundreds of thousands, why not Hanfu? Will hundreds of thousands of dollars of suits cause anti-dumping? Certainly not, because anti-dumping products are basically low-end products, products that lack scientific and technological competitiveness. Mr. Yu, learn some economics. )
China literati, do something interesting.
(Liu Sima retorts: So please ask Mr. Yu to do something interesting. Don't regard ignorance as courage and nihilism as nobility. At any time, culture needs a carrier, not just talking about spiritual importance. Without a carrier, who would know that you have such a culture? If the people who revive Hanfu are cynical, I don't understand. Aren't China people angry to see their own Japanese and Korean cultures return to China? )
Finally, remind Mr. Yu to know something before refuting. Don't think that you are a celebrity as if you know everything, which is bound to make mistakes. After reading Mr. Yu's remarks, I found that Mr. Yu knows no more about Hanfu than some people who put forward such ridiculous refutations as "Hanfu is Hanfu". Please read more articles about Hanfu before refuting. I know that as a celebrity, you will be embarrassed to recognize Hanfu. You are welcome to refute. )
