My fondest wish is for the future wenren of Asia, especially China, to possess the clear vision of the path they must take to once again bring about a cultural rebirth so as to interact with Western culture on an equal basis, but in a yin-yang polarity, to pave the way for the future of a culture for all humanities. On the other hand, I also hope Western intellectuals will be resolved to retrieve their culture from the clutches of American and European venture capitalists and to resume mutual influences with the East, so as to help create a genuine global culture that consists of the essence from all cultures…
In the mid-twentieth century, American culture demonstrated the significance of a mutually supportive and beneficial relationship between culture and commerce in our modern world. If through social and cultural reform we can find a chongyong (equilibrium) relationship between culture and economy, then the two can jointly make a fundamental contribution to the future of humanities.
