Mr Han Xiuguo's Speech at the 2023 October Great Wall Fengshui Calligraphy Exhibition

Esteemed guests, ladies and gentlemen.
 
Upon the gracious invitation from the organisers, we gather at the foot of the Great Wall to participate in the Master Yun Long Zi Great Wall Calligraphy exhibition. Let us extend warm congratulations on the successful organisation of this event.
 
The Great Wall stands as one of the greatest achievements in human history. It is a peerless marvel and spiritual treasure in the history of human civilisation.
 
As General Secretary Xi Jinping remarked, in today's world, when people think of China, they think of the Great Wall. When they think of Chinese civilisation, they also think of the Great Wall. The Great Wall, the Yangtze River, the Yellow River, and more are all important symbols of China, signifying the spirit of the Chinese people.
 
Calligraphy, as a treasure of Chinese cultural art, carries the profound cultural heritage of the Chinese, nurturing the blood and spirit of the Chinese people. It embodies the essential aesthetic principles, values, spirit, and integrity of the Chinese. This is the unique "way" and "spirit" of Chinese calligraphy.
 
This calligraphy art event is held at the Great Wall, known as the Master Yun Long Zi Great Wall Calligraphy exhibition. It reflects the love of Chinese compatriots at home and abroad, inheriting the patriotic feelings of Chinese worldwide.
 
Calligraphy boils down to one word – beauty. As the Chinese anthropologist Mr Fei Xiaotong once said, "Each has its own beauty, when all are beautiful, the world is in harmony." This event embodies this spirit.
 
In conclusion, I wish this event a complete success. I also extend my best wishes to all esteemed guests, wishing you good health, a successful career, happy lives, and good luck. 

Thank you.
