The Silk Road is 3000 miles long and Chinese civilization has a history of 8000 years. Dunhuang Mogao grottoes flew in the sky and came from dreams several times; Although the smoke of Jiayu Xiongguan has dispersed, it is still fascinating; Dadiwan culture and Majiayao culture are colorful and dreamlike, playing the grand overture of Chinese culture. It is an important birthplace of Chinese civilization, an important meeting place of world civilization, an important foundation of red culture and an important creation place of modern culture. This is Gansu. On October 20 13 1 month, the construction of Huaxia Civilization Heritage and Innovation Zone was approved by the State Council, and the grand blueprint for building a beautiful new Gansu was formally established. On July 19, the activity of "Entering the Innovation Zone of Chinese Civilization Inheritance-Interview with Central Media" was launched in Lanzhou, Gansu. The reporter went deep into this fertile cultural soil with the interview group to explore the monument of thousands of years of civilization development here, witness the vitality of cultural development here, and look forward to the beautiful blueprint for the construction of Chinese civilization inheritance and innovation zone. What do you think of when you mention Gansu? Is it Fuxi, the ancestor of mankind in ancient mythology, Dunhuang on the Silk Road, or frontier poems full of lofty sentiments? Of course, you will also feel that the economy of this western province is slightly backward and the people are kind and simple. Gansu in history has left too many cultural treasures for people. On June 65438+1October 2 1 this year, Gansu's "Building an Innovation Zone for the Inheritance of Chinese Civilization" was officially approved by the State Council. This western province with a long history and profound cultural background has ushered in a rare opportunity for its rise because of its culture. On July 19, 18, a reporter who participated in the activity of "Entering the Innovation Zone of Chinese Civilization-Interview with the Central Media", interviewed Ji Lian, member of the Standing Committee of Gansu Provincial Party Committee and Minister of Propaganda Department. In his introduction, the blueprint and construction steps of the Innovation Zone of Chinese Civilization gradually became clear. "Up to now, in 3/kloc-0 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities nationwide, the national strategic platform with cultural construction as its content is only the Huaxia Civilization Inheritance and Innovation Zone in Gansu." Ji Lian said. Under the background of promoting the great development and prosperity of culture, Gansu has won a brand-new development opportunity relying on the long, rich and varied historical and cultural resources and natural and cultural resources, which is undoubtedly a brand-new and powerful development medicine for Gansu with underdeveloped economy and fragile ecological environment. According to Ji Lian, the work layout of Huaxia Civilization Heritage and Innovation Zone is referred to as "13 13 Project" for short, that is, "three zones" and "thirteen plates" are built around the "Belt". In the long and narrow area of 454,400 square kilometers along the Silk Road in Gansu, we can see that the "three areas" of the Huaxia Civilization Heritage and Innovation Zone cover the eastern, central and western parts of Gansu, and the specific 13 list basically covers all aspects of cultural development, so the cultural resources of Gansu Province will be fully utilized in such a big plan. Up to now, the Gansu Provincial Party Committee and the provincial government have basically completed the top-level design of the construction of the Huaxia Civilization Inheritance and Innovation Zone. On March 29th, the Gansu provincial government held a working conference on the construction of an innovation zone for the inheritance of Chinese civilization, studied and issued the Implementation Opinions on Promoting the Construction of an innovation zone for the inheritance of Chinese civilization and the sub-plan of 13, and began the first and most detailed comprehensive survey of Gansu's cultural resources, and classified, graded and evaluated them to avoid blindness and disorder in the subsequent development. "Cultural construction cannot rely entirely on civil servants, so we started the construction of cultural think tanks." Ji Lian said that Gansu is inviting well-known scholars and experts to conduct research from the 13 section to build a professional academic platform for the protection and development of cultural resources. In addition, more than 0/00 large private cultural enterprises in Gansu/KLOC will enter the "green channel" built by the government, and the government will help them solve practical problems. According to Ji Lian, Huaxia Civilization Heritage Innovation Zone has reached strategic cooperation agreements with a number of large enterprises and financial institutions. In the first half of 20 13, the contract value of cultural industry investment in Gansu has reached12.9 billion yuan. Ji Lian said that this figure is 60 billion yuan in 20 12. Before 20 1 1, Gansu did not even have special cultural input. All this is attributed not only to the rapid economic development in China, but also to the systematic proposal of the construction of Chinese civilization inheritance and innovation zone, which has given investors enough confidence. It is understood that there are currently five projects with a cultural industry investment of more than 654.38 billion yuan in Gansu. In 20 12 years, the added value of Gansu cultural industry reached 78170,000 yuan, accounting for 1.4% of the province's GDP. According to the development goal of Huaxia Civilization Inheritance and Innovation Zone, by 20 15, the added value of Gansu cultural industry will account for more than 3% of the province's GDP. Not only the cultural industry, but also the cultural undertakings in Gansu will achieve leap-forward development with the help of the Chinese civilization inheritance and innovation zone. According to the relevant requirements of "Several Opinions of General Office of the State Council on Further Supporting Gansu's Economic and Social Development", from 20 12 to 20 15, the master plan for the construction of Chinese civilization inheritance and innovation zone was compiled and implemented, and key projects for the construction of Chinese civilization inheritance and innovation zone were started. By 20 15, key historical and cultural heritages will be better protected and a public cultural service system will be basically established. According to Ji Lian, Dunhuang, Lanzhou and Tianshui are the key areas of Gansu in the spatial layout of cultural industry development. As the intersection of Chinese civilization, Indian civilization, Islamic civilization and Greek civilization, Dunhuang has become a well-deserved development focus with its exquisite Buddhist art and natural landscape, as well as the global popularity of Dunhuang studies. Lanzhou also relies on the growing cultural and creative industries, and Tianshui has won a lot of attention with Fuxi culture. Referring to the construction rhythm of the Huaxia Civilization Heritage Innovation Zone, Ji Lian said: "After the top-level design and layout, the specific tasks of the provincial party Committee and government should be handed over to all walks of life and grassroots offices, so that they can bear the information, take responsibility and participate in the construction." From key to all-round, from top to grass-roots, Gansu is exploring a way to realize scientific development in an area with underdeveloped economy but rich cultural resources with practical actions. "We should open our doors to exchanges and build an innovation zone for the inheritance of Chinese civilization with the help of the strength of the whole country and the world." Ji Lian said with confidence. Historically, Gansu was once an important place where cultures of various countries and nationalities in China met and merged. The west is connected with Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, and the west is connected with inland countries in Central Asia. The construction of the Chinese civilization inheritance and innovation zone has connected the ancient Silk Road in series in a brand-new way of cultural connection. "Political and economic exchanges between countries often fail to reach the depth of cultural exchanges." Ji Lian said that in the future, cultural exchanges between China and Central Asian countries can reach a new height with the help of the construction of an innovation zone for the inheritance of Chinese civilization. At the same time, the concept of "Gansu culture" is also constantly clear in the construction of Chinese civilization inheritance and innovation zone. Ji Lian explained "Gansu culture" in this way: Gansu culture is the fusion of Dunhuang culture and western culture. Dunhuang culture embodies openness, inclusiveness and internationalization, and is a spiritual culture. Western culture is a pioneering and heroic culture, and it is also a behavioral culture. How to express Gansu culture better? Ji Lian said: "We should speak not only Gansu dialect and Mandarin, but also foreign languages." However, the fragile ecological environment and relatively backward supporting hardware facilities are still problems that need to be faced directly in the construction and development of the Chinese civilization inheritance and innovation zone. Ji Lian said that the future development, especially in the cultural tourism industry, will follow the "limited environmental capacity principle" to set the tourist capacity and cultural relics display mode, and start the construction of the "cloud service platform" in the innovation zone, that is, the online Chinese civilization inheritance innovation zone. In the future, high-tech exhibitions will greatly meet the needs of the audience, thus realizing the diversion of tourists and avoiding the destruction of cultural relics and fragile natural environment. In terms of supporting hardware facilities, Gansu will gradually improve as planned. culture
