Perhaps theinfluence of the Chinese civilization on the ancient society of mankind hasnot been fully unveiled，perhaps the obstruction of high mountains and vastoceans has prevented the spread of the impact that should have been felt，orperhaps the wars and natural disasters in the past several hundred years orone thousand years have annihilated those records．This time，however，we should not allow the spread of the Chinese civilization to be obstructedfor another time．With the support of modern sci

Over the past decade，I have been preoccupied with the wish to sum-marize the successful experience of the reform and opening-up in China andthen abstract it into a kind of theory SO that it can make its due contributiontO human development．
The Chinese nation，with a history of civilization lasting for over fivethousand years。iS said to boast the only uninterrupted civilization in thehuman society．When I visited the Yin Ruins in Anyang of Henan，the“Emperor’S Chariot Drawn by Six Steeds”in Luoyang．the TerracottaWarriors of Xi’an，and the Sanxingdui Ruins and the Jinsha Ruins on theChengdu Plain；when I read about major archeological discoveries such asthe Jade Clothes Sewn With Gold Thread in Mancheng of Hebei，the Bud-dhist remains of the underground palace in the Famen Temple of Xi’an，thebamboo slips of the Qin Dynasty in Liye of Hunan and the ancient corpse inJinzhou of Hubei that remains unrotten for a thousand years．1 was drivenby an impulse，an impulse that brought tears into my eyes：how splendidand magnificent the five thousand-year Chinese civilization is!Perhaps theinfluence of the Chinese civilization on the ancient society of mankind hasnot been fully unveiled，perhaps the obstruction of high mountains and vastoceans has prevented the spread of the impact that should have been felt，orperhaps the wars and natural disasters in the past several hundred years orone thousand years have annihilated those records．This time，however，we should not allow the spread of the Chinese civilization to be obstructedfor another time．With the support of modern science and technology，thevaluable experience of the reform and opening——up as well as the develop——ment in China should be shared by all mankind．If we failed to carefullysummarize this experience，we would be unworthy of the Chinese civiliza-tion with a history of five thousand years and be unworthy of our ances-tors．That would be my lifelong regret!
