Self-confidence and self-reliance, taking the road of Chinese modernization

  The education on studying and implementing the theme of Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era, which is being carried out in depth by the whole Party, emphasizes that we should be good at using Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the New Era to promote Chinese modernization and make new progress and breakthrough. "We must persist in self-confidence and self-reliance" is an important embodiment of the standpoint and method of Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the new era, and it is also the standpoint and method that we must adhere to in promoting and expanding Chinese modernization. In the new era and new journey, we should adhere to the guidance of Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought of the Supreme Leader in the new era, persist in self-confidence and self-reliance, and make Chinese-style modern China more distinctive, more prominent in advantages and brighter in prospects.

  Show the image of the times of self-confidence and self-reliance. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "There is no fixed model for the road to modernization. What suits you is the best, and you can’t cut your feet." Looking back on the development history of human society, it is not difficult to find that a country should not only follow the general law of modernization, but also conform to its own reality and have its own characteristics. Since the founding of New China, especially since the reform and opening-up, our Party has persisted in self-reliance, constantly promoted theoretical and practical innovations of Chinese modernization, united and led the people of China to complete the industrialization process that western developed countries have gone through for hundreds of years in decades, created miracles of rapid economic development and long-term social stability, and opened up broad prospects for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. It is an important theoretical innovation of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and the latest significant achievement of scientific socialism to put forward and elaborate the Chinese modernization theory in general. Chinese-style modernization theory abandons the old ways of modernization centered on capital, polarized modernization, materialistic expansion and foreign expansion and plunder in the west, which transcends the western modernization theory, breaks the myth of "modernization = westernization" and shows the world the image of the Chinese nation as self-confident and self-reliant. At present, China’s development faces new strategic opportunities, new strategic tasks, new strategic stages, new strategic requirements and new strategic environment, which puts forward new requirements for promoting and expanding Chinese modernization. On the new journey, we should continue to deepen our understanding of the laws of modernization.Adhere to self-confidence, self-reliance, integrity and innovation, and contribute more China wisdom and Chinese programs to human exploration of modernization.

  Highlight the theoretical character of self-confidence and self-reliance. The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "Taking our own path is the whole theoretical and practical foothold of the party, and it is also the historical conclusion drawn by the party’s struggle for a hundred years." In the 1950s, our Party adhered to independence and self-reliance, and gradually formed a development strategy of "four modernizations" in industry, agriculture, national defense and science and technology, which set specific and clear strategic objectives for promoting national construction and social development. In the new era of reform, opening up and socialist modernization, our party scientifically judges the characteristics of the times and the international situation, and puts forward "stepping out of a Chinese-style modernization road." Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has grasped the overall situation of the great rejuvenation strategy of the Chinese nation and the unprecedented changes in the world in the past century, further deepened the understanding of the connotation and essence of Chinese-style modernization, summarized the China characteristics, essential requirements and major principles of Chinese-style modernization, and initially constructed the theoretical system of Chinese-style modernization, making it clearer, more scientific and more feasible. The process of our party’s success in stepping out of the road of Chinese modernization is a process of courageously promoting theoretical innovation in combination with new practice and being good at guiding new practice with new theories. On the new journey, we should inherit and carry forward the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s theoretical character of self-confidence and self-reliance, and persist in using the "arrow" of Marxism to shoot the "right" of China in the new era.Self-confidence and self-reliance create a beautiful picture of building a strong country and national rejuvenation.

  Show the struggle background of self-confidence and self-reliance General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "Realizing modernization is the dream that China people have been striving for since modern times." After the Opium War, China gradually became a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. The people of China are indomitable, making all kinds of attempts and struggling to find the road to modernization in China. For more than a hundred years, our party has United and led the people of all ethnic groups in the country to unite and struggle, creating great achievements in the new-democratic revolution and creating fundamental social conditions for realizing modernization; Created great achievements in socialist revolution and construction, and laid a fundamental political premise, valuable experience, theoretical preparation and material foundation for modernization; It has created great achievements in reform, opening up and socialist modernization, and provided a new and energetic institutional guarantee and material conditions for rapid development for Chinese modernization. In the new era, under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core and under the scientific guidance of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, the whole party and the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country have made concerted efforts to promote historic achievements and changes in the cause of the party and the country, especially to eliminate the problem of absolute poverty and build a well-off society in an all-round way, which has provided a more perfect institutional guarantee, a more solid material foundation and a more active spiritual force for Chinese modernization. Chinese-style modernization theory is an important theoretical innovation based on China’s national conditions and China’s reality. It is an important part of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, and it is a guide to promote and expand Chinese-style modernization. On the new journey,We should always adhere to self-confidence and self-reliance, and usher in a brighter future of Chinese modernization with United struggle.

Prospect of the extended range version of Star Era ET: or sell for 209,800 yuan with a wheelbase of 3,000 mm.

The plug-in hybrid market is very hot, which is a recent feature of the domestic market. Because the overall share has improved significantly, there are more and more car companies making efforts in this market, which directly leads to the market becoming more and more "rolled". From the consumer’s point of view, if you are a friend with only one car at home, Kitten suggests starting with hybrid and plug-in hybrid models. If you are mainly traveling in cities for short distances and occasionally running at high speed, extended-range electric is also a good choice. Judging from the current market situation, the popularity of domestic extended-range electric vehicles is not low. Ideal L7, Wenjie M7, etc. are all products of this type.

In the 380th batch of Announcement of Road Motor Vehicle Manufacturers and Products issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Chery’s Xingtu brand declared an extended-range electric vehicle, Xingtu ET extended-range version. Prior to this, its pure electric version has been declared, which means that Starway ET will provide two different power models in the future.

According to the group’s plan, Chery will fully launch the new energy market in 2024. Before that, Xingtu brand has launched pure electric and plug-in hybrid models. Although from the technical difficulty and performance, extended-range electric is not as good as plug-in hybrid, but its advantages are simple structure and low cost. Under the condition of fixed cost, the money saved from the power system can be used for interior configuration, which is valued by many new energy vehicle consumers.

From the body size, the extended range version of Star Way ET is close to the level of medium and large SUV, with the length, width and height of 4955mm, 1975mm and 1698mm respectively and the wheelbase of 3000mm;; Compared with the main competitors’ ideal L7 of 5050mm, 1995mm, 1750mm and 3005mm, although slightly inferior, the gap is not very big. In terms of seat layout, it also adopts a five-seat design, and the performance of the rear space can be satisfactory.

As for the power system, the extended range version of Star Era ET uses SQRH4J15B 1.5T four-cylinder engine as the range extender, with the maximum power of 115kw. The data of the motor has not been published yet, but according to the configuration of Star Era ET pure electric version, it should provide two models: single motor and double motor. The power battery is lithium iron phosphate battery, and the manufacturer is Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited. In terms of configuration, although there is not much news released at present, in terms of product positioning, it should not be lower than Xingyue ES.

In terms of price, the extended edition of Star Era ET can use Star Era ES as a pricing reference. Star Era ET is a medium and large SUV, and its price is higher than that of Star Era ES, which is positioned by medium and large cars. The starting price of the latter pure electric version is 198,800 yuan, and Star Era ET may be higher than it. At the same time, the price of the extended-range version will be lower than that of the pure electric version because of its small battery capacity. Therefore, based on various factors, the kitten expects the starting price of the extended-range version of Star Era ET to be 209,800 yuan, but its configuration level will be higher than that of Star Era ES.

Cat heart blue view

In terms of sales performance, although Chery has launched a number of plug-in hybrid models before, their sales performance is average, especially for Star Road brand models. According to the terminal sales data, the total sales volume of the Star Road Chasing Wind Plug-in Hybrid Model in 2023 was only 1,214 vehicles, which was not even as good as the weekly sales volume of many hot-selling cars. Faced with the sales dilemma, Chery’s new energy vehicles are also adjusting their prices, trying to impress consumers with low prices.

Looking forward to the future sales trend of Xingtu ET Extended Range Edition, its main competitors are naturally Ideal L7 and Wenjie M7. The former has a higher price threshold of 319,800 yuan, and the latter also costs 249,800 yuan. Compared with these two models, the core advantage of Xingtu ET Extended Range Edition is that the price threshold is lower, and Chery has accumulated a certain reputation in the market. In the early days of 200,000 yuan, you can buy a big five-seat extended-range electric SUV produced by Chery, which is actually attractive.

Precious video evidence of Siberian tigers eating bears was first found in Xiaoxing ‘an Mountains.

The Siberian tiger, known as the "king of the jungle", is a world-class endangered species, which was once widely distributed in the northeast of China. At the beginning of the 20th century, only Xiaoxing ‘anling and Changbai Mountain were distributed in a very small amount. During the scientific investigation in 1980s, the Northeast Tiger was once declared extinct in Xiaoxing ‘anling area. In recent years, with the continuous promotion of ecological protection and restoration, Xiaoxing ‘anling has reappeared the scene of "roaring mountains and forests".

Taipinggou Nature Reserve in Heilongjiang Province is a region where many large and medium-sized wild animals, including brown bears and black bears, are concentrated. In recent years, many Siberian tigers have crossed the river from Russia across a river into Taipinggou, which makes the food chain in the reserve more complicated.

In this area where many kinds of top carnivores are concentrated, with the arrival of the Northeast Tiger, the king of the jungle, the original food chain in the forest area has also undergone natural succession adjustment. With the deepening of the investigation of animal population in the ditch by researchers, many rare phenomena have also been photographed.

Scientific experiments realize individual identification of black bears for the first time.

In the picture, a simple and honest black bear is standing upright like a human being, chasing the food hanging on the rope with his mouth. In this process, the white patterns on their chests are clearly exposed to the infrared camera lens. This is an experiment of individual identification of black bears conducted by researchers. It is understood that the white pattern on the chest of black bears is the only reference to distinguish individuals because of the lack of patterns that are convenient for individual identification. In order to induce them to show the patterns on their chests, the researchers designed the above experimental scheme. This extremely cooperative bear is therefore deeply loved by researchers. However, not long after, this lovely bear was hunted and eaten by the Northeast Tiger.

Zhang Yingxiang, Heilongjiang Taipinggou National Nature Reserve Administration: That bear is actually a pity, because when we were doing a special investigation on black bears and brown bears, there was such a bear in this position that it was very smart, so our experts called it the smartest bear in the world. It is when we give it an experiment, it can climb the tree and follow our rope, just like people command, it is very smart to catch the food. But the laws of nature can’t escape, the law of the jungle.

Tracking the event of tiger eating bear

While regretting the bear, the incident that the tiger ate the bear also attracted the attention of experts. It is understood that the black bear is a beast of nature and rarely encounters natural enemies. Prior to this, there was no video record of black bears being hunted by other animals in China.

Liu Fang, Associate Research Fellow of China Academy of Forestry: Judging from the situation in our country, there is no conclusive evidence that tigers eat black bears in other areas, which is the first time in China.

Professor Peking University Lv Zhi, who has been studying animals for many years, also said it was the first time he heard of it.

Professor Lv Zhi of Peking University Academy of Life Sciences: I really haven’t heard that tigers eat live bears. This is the first time I’ve heard of it.

The reporter made a further investigation into the incident of tigers eating bears. Liu Yanlin is a witness of this process. On the day of the incident, when they were conducting a special study on cats in the woodland, they found the footprints of tigers on the ground and followed them all the way, hoping to make new discoveries.

Liu Yanlin, Heilongjiang Taipinggou National Protected Area Administration: We rushed there, and the bear’s abdomen and the front of its neck were eaten by tigers, and the meat was still steaming.

Zhang Yingxiang and Su Quanyong, colleagues, talked about the scene at that time and still felt scared.

Zhang Yingxiang, Heilongjiang Taipinggou National Nature Reserve Administration: The next day, as usual, when we continued to follow the tiger’s footprints along that road, we found that there were traces of tigers stepping on our footprints down the mountain on the road we walked yesterday. At that time, we felt terrible. Fortunately, there were many people going up the mountain at that time, so it is hard to say whether the Northeast Tiger will attack when there are few people.

Su Quanyong, Heilongjiang Taipinggou National Nature Reserve Administration: The tiger’s lying track was also found on the top of the mountain. I followed the trail of the tiger dragging the bear down and went up to see their fighting scene. After walking some distance, I found a bear barn.

The reporter also repeatedly questioned and verified the evidence beyond the description of the witnesses.

Reporter: The bear’s body, how did you confirm that it was eaten by a tiger?

Liu Yanlin, Heilongjiang Taipinggou National Protected Area Administration: Because there are also fighting scenes and footprints, there are no fewer than three lying tracks beside the tiger’s footprints, and it should rest nearby after eating.

As the saying goes, the tigers roar in the mountains and the beasts are frightened. At present, tigers eat bears, which is only a case. However, with many Siberian tigers entering Taipinggou and even Xiaoxing ‘anling, what changes will happen to the animal community in the jungle need further monitoring and research. What is visible to the naked eye is that the frequency of bears has indeed dropped significantly.

Chen Zhigang, Director of Heilongjiang Taipinggou National Nature Reserve Administration: It is said that the number of bears has really changed a lot since the arrival of the Northeast Tiger. Even before the Northeast Tiger came, swarms of black bears and brown bears could always be found through infrared camera monitoring. After the first Siberian tiger came to our nature reserve, it was found that the number of brown bears and black bears was gradually decreasing in recent years. This may also reflect that among top predators, bears still have a fear of tigers, or have a certain impact on the distribution of bears.

Animal experts believe that the bear population in Taipinggou forest area has been increasing in recent years. If natural enemies can be welcomed and their numbers are properly adjusted, the forest ecosystem will adjust itself to a new equilibrium state.

Liu Fang, Associate Research Fellow of China Academy of Forestry: It can be predicted in the future that the more tigers there are, the more they will prey on black bears, which is a regulating effect on the population of black bears.

Homologous distribution of many carnivores in Taipinggou Nature Reserve.

In Taipinggou Nature Reserve of Heilongjiang Province, there are many kinds of top carnivores in the same domain and concentrated distribution. What is the jungle world that can carry so many carnivores?

The location on the picture is located in Taipinggou Nature Reserve, Heilongjiang Province. Boris, the Siberian tiger, is a Siberian tiger who migrated from Russia on the other side of Heilongjiang Province.

After entering Taipinggou, he quickly occupied a woodland. A day later, his son Thunder also waded from the other side and entered the same woodland with him. Xiang’ an started their respective cruises after "taking the mountain as the king" to declare sovereignty. Although the relationship between the two tigers is "father and son", "two tigers in one mountain" is still a phenomenon beyond the normal nature.

In fact, in Taipinggou Nature Reserve with a total area of only 220 square kilometers, a number of Siberian tigers, two or even more, have been identified, and it is normal to exist in this valley less than 50 kilometers at the same time. Compared with scientific data, the average territory area of a tiger is about 400 square kilometers, and Taipinggou obviously has extraordinary ecological carrying capacity.

Liu Fang, Associate Research Fellow of China Academy of Forestry: If there are many tigers in an area, it means that the ecological environment of this place is very good, which can not only provide it with sufficient hidden conditions and water sources, but also provide a very rich food source, indicating that this is a very healthy and stable ecosystem.

It is remarkable that there are not only many tigers in Taipinggou, but also other top carnivores have a stable population in Taipinggou. In another picture, three animals with strange shapes, like cats, cats and leopards, appear in the Taipinggou woodland in the same frame, enjoying the warm autumn sun leisurely. They are the second-class protected animals in China, and the wild animals in nature, the lynx, are used to living alone, and the picture of three going out together can be said to be very rare. At the same time, compared with another carnivore, wolves, which is often used to compare with their predation ability, their attack power is indistinguishable, showing the same domain distribution phenomenon.

Among a large number of carnivores, besides tigers, lynxes and wolves, there are two carnivores in Taipinggou, commonly known as beasts. They are brown bears and black bears, which are distributed in Taipinggou forest area in large numbers and overlapping.

Chen Zhigang, Director of Heilongjiang Taipinggou National Protected Area Administration: During the investigation of black bears and brown bears in the first few years, we found that there were many black bears and brown bears in our nature reserve, about 30 to 40.

It is understood that the distribution of two kinds of bears in the same domain is not only rare in China, but also the range of species overlap is very limited. This is another evidence of the superior ecological function of Taipinggou.

Liu Fang, Associate Research Fellow of China Academy of Forestry: According to the investigation results of our infrared camera, there are black bears and brown bears in every area of Taipinggou Nature Reserve, so their two species overlap in space, but according to the time information recorded by infrared camera, they are separated in time. Therefore, the spatial niches overlap, but the temporal niches are separated, and the abundant food is the reason why these two species can coexist in this area.

In addition to top predators, top raptors are also resident in Taipinggou. The golden eagle, a top predator known as the "king of birds", has lost its mystery in Taipinggou and become a clear image in an infrared camera. Interestingly, they have been photographed many times, "picking up" the leftover food of the Northeast Tiger.

In the picture, a domestic dog unfortunately became the prey of the Northeast Tiger. After being eaten by the Northeast Tiger, the staff set up an infrared camera next to the wreckage, expecting to photograph the picture of the Northeast Tiger returning to eat. Unexpectedly, the Northeast Tiger did not photograph it, but a golden eagle unexpectedly "appeared".

Zhang Yingxiang, Monitor of Heilongjiang Taipinggou National Protected Area Administration: When we went to get this camera, we found that the tiger didn’t come back and the dog was eaten by the golden eagle. At the same time, I took about 70 or 80 pictures of golden eagles eating dogs, and the pictures I took were very clear and the picture quality was very good. The golden eagle is also a national first-class protected animal. At the same time, a dog can be eaten by the golden eagle after being eaten by a tiger. This phenomenon is rarely recorded.

Taipinggou forest ecosystem is superior, which is one of the most complete areas in the food chain.

So, what’s magical about this jungle in Taipinggou, which can inhabit and support so many carnivores? It is understood that the forest coverage rate in Taipinggou is over 95%, including a large number of nut trees. It is autumn, which is the ripening season of Quercus mongolica fruits. Their fruits are rich in protein and fat, and they are high-quality food for wild animals.

Liu Fang, Associate Research Fellow of China Academy of Forestry: In Taipinggou Nature Reserve, it is very common that Mongolian oak forests grow particularly well like this, or mixed forests of Mongolian oak and red forest. They also provide a large amount of food for wild animals, so they can support a series of wild animals, including ungulates and bears. Like brown bears and black bears, the number of acorns it ingests in autumn basically determines its hibernation state and its reproduction rate.

One of Laojun Mountain (Records of Mountains and Rivers)

  Before going to Laojun Mountain in Luanchuan, I made a simple strategy. First of all, I’m curious about whether there are any other places called Laojun Mountain. After searching, there are a dozen Laojun Mountains all over the country. But on second thought, it is also reasonable. Either there are legends left behind, or because of reverence, in short, there are various reasons why so many mountains share this name, and the mountains have different names. This is the same road.

  However, although there are so many Laojun Mountains, with my selfishness, even if I come to Laojun Mountain in Luanchuan for the first time, I will naturally feel the most cordial here. Why? This is Henan. I’m from Henan. There is also a very hard basis: the Tao Te Ching was written in Hanguguan. Of all the Laojun Mountains, there is nothing closer than Laojun Mountain in Luanchuan and Hanguguan. By the way, there is another thing to say: Laojun Mountain here is actually the main peak of Funiu Mountain, the remaining pulse of Qinling Mountains. It is well known that I ride a green cow. Isn’t this mountain in early spring like a huge green cow?

  The mountain gate is very close to Luanchuan county, but it takes only ten minutes by car. Looking at the mountain at the foot of the mountain, the sky is gloomy and dark clouds are rolling. The tour guide brother said it might rain. Then it will rain. "and, after a night of mountain rain, from each summit come hundreds of silken cascades", you might as well enjoy Baizhong Spring in Laojun Mountain.

  Take the cable car slowly up the hill. The wind is strong, but the cable car is smooth. With the elevation, the cableway has two levels. The first level is divided into two branches, one is called Zhongling cableway, which is the first cableway built by Laojun Mountain, starting from Lingguan Hall and reaching Zhongtianmen, so it is named Zhongling. One is the Yunjing cableway, which starts from Zhaigou and ends at Zhongtianmen. It’s longer than Zhongling cableway, and it has more pleasing scenery. Thanks for these great inventions. I am such a timid person, I will never try to fly with wings. If I want to have a bird’s-eye view, I can only rely on such an invention.

  It’s really beautiful, this spring mountain. No matter whether the leaves are green or the flowers are beautiful, all colors are the original colors, which are extremely pure. Forsythia suspensa and Yingchun both have yellow flowers, but they are different, one is gorgeous and the other is calm. Magnolia is also divided into red magnolia and magnolia, and magnolia is more. Grandma’s name is Yulan, so Yulan is my favorite tree. It really hits it off, and people here seem to like Magnolia very much. Magnolia can be seen everywhere in the county seat, and most of the street trees are magnolia. Magnolia is also planted on both sides of the road up the mountain. But the magnolia on this mountain is different from that on the foot of the mountain. The flowers are smaller, and the small flowers are blossoming upwards, full and hard, as if each one is gathering light.

  On the first level, I arrived at Zhongtianmen-there are Zhongtianmen in Taishan, and there are many places called Zhongtianmen, right? After getting off the cable car, we strolled to the observation deck and looked in the direction of Luanchuan County. We thought we would be obscured by clouds, but it was very clear. What comes into view is a vast plain, surrounded by miniature buildings, roads and ant-like vehicles. The outline of Yishui is faintly visible in the middle. It suddenly occurred to me that the Longmen Grottoes, more than 100 kilometers away, are also beside Yishui. Thinking of Lushena’s smile is like spring water. "Good if water. Water is good for all things without arguing, and it is evil for everyone, so it is a few words. " When the wise man wrote this, did he also think of Yishui?

  Transfer to the peak forest cableway and continue to climb the mountain, and the mountain becomes steeper and steeper. Out of this higher cableway station, look into the mountains. At this moment, all the mountains are shrouded in clouds, and it really is "how can I tell, through all these clouds?". However, being in the fog and being close to it, there is no gloomy color, but the humidity is getting heavier.

  Follow the trail slowly. While listening to the tour guide’s little brother talking about the past, I can’t go without Laozi and the origin of Laozi and Laojunshan. It is said that Lao Tzu went here to practice in seclusion during the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. In the administrative territory, Laojunshan has been owned by Lushi for many years. It is recorded in Lushi County Records and Inscriptions that laojunmiao was built on the mountain in the Northern Wei Dynasty. In the 11th year of Zhenguan in Tang Dynasty —— AD 637 —— Li Shimin sent Wei Chijingde as the supervisor to rebuild laojunmiao. During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, Lu’s county magistrate Gao Gao also wrote "Ode to Mount Jingshi"-Jingshi Mountain is another name of Laojun Mountain. In the preface, he wrote: "Yu to Lu’s, I heard that there are mountains in the world, and the customs are passed down as the residence of Laozi, that is, named after Laojun."

  Like all places of interest, the incense on the mountain is also very prosperous. Even in this weather, there are many people going up the mountain, and most of them come for praying. It’s just that the way of praying now is also advancing with the times. Blessing signs are everywhere on the branches and railings. In early spring, the trees are swaying with fresh and tender green, and the dense red signs move with the wind, dancing like hearts. Some are grand, such as "I wish world peace". Some are specific, such as "get rich as soon as possible", "make a fortune", "succeed in postgraduate entrance examination" and "go ashore as soon as possible" Looking at it, I can’t help wondering who the well-wishers are. "I hope I can get to the right platform to shine as soon as possible and provide a better life for my family." I want to come to this person who just walked out of school. "I wish my daughter a lifetime with someone at the latest by the end of the year." I think this tone should be a mother. There are many emotional cards. "I wish the opposite sex a smooth relationship". Maybe this one has too many same-sex friends, so I have to emphasize the opposite sex? "I have always loved you. You should live well and let me love you." What kind of person is this? No matter what kind of person, just love.

  Strolling to the "ten-mile painting screen", in the fog, the tour guide is very dutiful. It is said that clouds cover thousands of miles when the sea of clouds is mighty, that the autumn colors of maple trees dye thousands of peaks, that the white cuckoo is amazing, that the stars are seen on the top of the mountain in midsummer night, that the snow begins to fall, and that Chu Qing is after the snow, and the sunshine, the snow color and the gold on the top of the hall complement each other, which is beautiful. Pointing to the vast distance, I reported the names of scenic spots like a few treasures: Dragon patrolling the mountain, Guanyin enjoying music, Miaobu Lotus …

  It’s just that the weather is not good today. I can’t see a lot of things. His tone is full of regret.

  It’s good. I said.

  If the weather is fine, you can see more and more.

  I’ve seen enough. I’ve seen everything you said.

  His expression was obviously incredulous, probably because he thought I was perfunctory. I don’t defend myself. How can a word explain my mood clearly? I know the beauty here, this side of the mountain is different from that side, and this slope is different from that one. Every day is different, every moment is different. Rain is different from snow, early spring and late autumn, midsummer and midwinter. But I can’t live here forever. I, limited, can only come to this mountain at this time. All kinds of limitations determine that I may not come many times in the future. Then concentrate on enjoying the beauty of this moment. As long as I enjoy the beauty of this moment intently, even if I come only once, it will be many times and countless times.

  Just as there is only one life. Living a good life this time is actually equivalent to living many times.

  This is my one. I want to keep my one.

  So, really, everything you can see is good. I have actually seen what I can’t see. Take the heart as the purpose.

  Tao gives birth to one, life to two, life to three, and life to all things. For a moment, I suddenly understood this sentence. Legend has it that after I wrote the Classic of Tao Te Ching, I bid farewell to Yin Xi, the official of Hangu Pass, and rode away on a green ox. Historical Records records: "I don’t know where it will end". In fact, there is no need to know this. He is on the road.

  Looking towards the west, the mountains are boundless. I checked with my mobile phone, and it is 168.1 kilometers from Laojunshan to Hanguguan. Looking at this number with zero and integer, I laughed silently. This one, how good.
