We have a history of five thousand years, and even after countless dynastic changes, we have always held fast to our inner beliefs. But now, some people are attempting to use cultural invasion to subtly shatter the backbone of the Chinese people, forcing us to kneel and become slaves once again.

I believe that one day China will once again stand at the top of the world. At that time, we can reach for the moon in the heavens, and capture turtles in the five oceans. Like a roc rising with the wind, we will soar ninety thousand miles high. Thank you!"
