The "decoder" of communicating with the world plays an important role in promoting emotional cohesion and spiritual building in promoting people-to-people bonds and building a community with a shared future for mankind.

We should explore the value of traditional culture through domestic and foreign cooperation, carry out cultural heritage protection actions, and promote excellent traditional culture by holding high-quality international cultural forums, cultural exhibitions and other cultural exchange activities.

Cultural relics are the historical imprint of a nation and an important starting point for cultural exchanges.

To tell Chinese stories well, we must give play to the important role of museums.

We must use the power of science and technology and new media to let cultural relics speak, let history speak, and let culture speak, and promote the deepening of the friendship between the Chinese people and people from all over the world.
