Westernization Movement, etc., our familiar slogans are "learning from foreigners to control foreigners" and "learning from foreigners to control foreigners". Those who learn from others are called "barbarians".

In the Opium War, the British army's indiscriminate bombing disintegrated the pride of the Qing dynasty, and the Westernization Movement, which was difficult to carry out after all kinds of hardships, was also full of obstacles and eventually failed. But since then, China people have really understood the importance of learning advanced western technology. The Manchu government is hopeless. After all, temporary study can't stop powerful foreign military forces.

And our country today is strong, and its source is precisely because of the pressure of war. It allows us to keep learning advanced technologies and concepts, which is what I call "delay". The idea and practice of learning advanced technology from the west did not save the Manchu government, but it still saved our Chinese nation, but history and time left us a heavy trace, which is the meaning of "delay".
