Features: Although defining a generation is so difficult, certain shared historical events can indeed shape the perspectives of a group of people of similar ages. China is steadily becoming one of the world's most important forces, sparking the imagination and curiosity of the entire world—what will happen if a country that once represented the center of civilization tries to regain its lost dignity? Xu Zhiyuan attempts to argue: the generation born in the 1970s will soon become the backbone of Chinese society and must shoulder a more important mission. China is becoming a force that can change the world, and China is the most fashionable topic of our time. If our country truly tries to achieve the rise that generations have long dreamed of, then the Chinese people of the future must embody the corresponding spirit. What makes us unique? Whether for a nation, a generation, or an individual, this is a question that is constantly raised but always urgent.
