Features: On July 9, 2001, at noon, when ordinary university students packed their backpacks and left the classroom, a special and open "university" quietly began its sessions. What made it special was its educational philosophy: "lectures by renowned experts from home and abroad, covering scientific, humanistic, and social content." Its educational concept was: "gathering intellectual elites, sharing educational resources, spreading modern culture, and promoting the spirit of science and humanity." Its pursuit was: "combining rationality and practicality, emphasizing authority and avant-garde, pursuing academic innovation, encouraging individual thought, advocating accessibility to all, and valuing interactive communication." Its goal was: "constructing common knowledge of the era and enjoying a life of wisdom." As for its openness: no entrance exams or tests required; no age or identity restrictions; "a passion for knowledge" was the only requirement for enrollment. Which "university" is this? "One Hundred Lectures." Where is "One Hundred Lectures"? On China Central Television's Channel 10. Highly advanced television technology has given humanity a shortcut, allowing us to have such a close connection with knowledge! The names of Yang Zhenning, Lee Tsung-dao, Ding Zhongzhong, Zhou Ruchang, Ye Jiaying, Bai Chunli, Li Yinong, Feng Jicai, and Long Yingtai are passed on on the stage built by light and shadow, transmitting the spirit of humanity. This spirit is the driving force for the continuation of civilization and the foundation of human survival. Let knowledge be tangible, let thoughts be touchable, and let scholars from around the world share the same experience in the sacred hall of light and shadow—with knowledge truly being a blessing. After more than a thousand sunrises and sunsets, the greatest achievement of "One Hundred Lectures" has been over seven hundred heavy-duty tapes. Seven hundred forty-five-minute segments should be considered a considerable length for a television program, especially when they record the essence of human thought. How can we promote and carry forward these essence of human thought? We thought of publishing, which is both collectible and convenient for study. Thanks to the strong support of China Renmin University Press, we have selected the content of five hundred lectures to produce CDs, published in series, and also published nearly thirty related books to meet the diverse intellectual needs of knowledge lovers. China Renmin University Press has called this "big move" a "great achievement" in 2004, and we should sincerely express our gratitude for their hard work. Viewers and readers, let us shake hands in the inheritance of knowledge!
