"The Profundity of Beijing" mainly focuses on the basic layout of modern Beijing as the capital of the Republic, looking back at the ancient formation, basic structure, and rich cultural and aesthetic content of the capital in Chinese culture, and revealing its influence on the symbolic system of the modern Chinese capital. At that time, it presented the evolution of the capital model and symbolic system since the reform and opening up. Later, the capital city of China pursued the world city, and the capital city of ancient ethnic minorities caught up with the capital city of China. These dual perspectives provide a cultural and aesthetic reference for the modern capital model and symbolic system of China.

Fascination and despicability are two new aesthetic types that have emerged in the Western contemporary world. They have had a new impact on the original aesthetic type system (the system centered on beauty and ugliness and the system centered on beauty, sorrow, and joy), forming a system centered on avant-garde and eccentricity. At the same time, a transposition between the beauty of ecstasy and the ugliness of the avant-garde was formed. At the same time, flattering and despicable is a Western understanding of beauty in popular culture, and it proposes a new perspective on popular culture. Therefore, flattering and despicable pose new challenges and thinking to the theory of aesthetic types in world aesthetics.
