Before the symposium, General Secretary Xi Jinping inspected the National Version Museum of China on the afternoon of the 2st, and learned about the preservation of fine editions in the Lantai Cave Library.

"The construction of the Chinese National Version Pavilion is a project that I am very concerned about and personally approved, and the original purpose is to collect and protect the classic materials that can be collected since ancient times in our historical stage, and continue to pass on the only uninterrupted civilization in the world." On the afternoon of June 6, General Secretary Xi Jinping took a car to the Central Headquarters of the National Version Pavilion of China, located at the foot of Yanshan Mountain in Changping District, Beijing.

After three years of construction, the National Version Pavilion of China was inaugurated on July 2022, 7. In order to ensure the safety of ancient texts, the Chinese National Version Pavilion has set up three other halls in addition to the Central Headquarters as remote disaster preparedness halls in accordance with the model of "one total and three points", and the three museums are also regional version resource gathering centers. Focusing on the theme of the cultural seed "the famous mountain of Tibet, passing on to future generations", the four museums in four regions are built according to the mountain, each with its own emphasis, its own characteristics, but also echoes and integrates with each other, jointly building a Chinese version of the preservation and inheritance system.

To understand the Chinese National Version Pavilion, we must first start with what a version is. To put it simply, the Chinese version includes all kinds of resources that bear the imprint of Chinese civilization in ancient and modern China and abroad. For example, ancient books and bronzes carrying heavy history and culture, newspapers and periodicals with distinctive imprints of the times, food stamps, and books, newspapers, and tapes that are closely related to our daily lives. In other words, versions are the "golden seeds" that record history and witness civilization.

The China National Version Pavilion is a "warehouse" planned by the state from the strategic height of cultural security and cultural rejuvenation to store and store the "golden seeds" of civilization, that is, the gene bank of Chinese civilization seeds. General Secretary Xi Jinping once pointed out that the excellent traditional Chinese culture created and continued by the Chinese nation in thousands of years of history is the root and soul of the Chinese nation. The preservation of cultural seeds and genes by the National Version Museum of China is an important cause related to the roots and soul of the Chinese nation.

It is understood that the National Version Museum of China has included ten categories of version resources bearing the imprint of Chinese civilization in ancient and modern China and abroad into the scope of preservation, mainly undertaking the responsibility of national version resource planning and coordination, census collection, collection display, research exchange, publicity and use, and shouldering the important mission of continuing the Chinese cultural context, strengthening cultural self-confidence, displaying the image of a great country, and promoting dialogue among civilizations.

The Central Headquarters of the National Version Museum of China is located in Xingshou Town, Changping District, Beijing, which was originally an abandoned quarry, surrounded by mountains on three sides, with good geological conditions.
