It has been half a century since "Huizhou Studies" was put forward, but it only took five or six years to boil down to "Huizhou Studies Culture". However, the concept of Huizhou culture was quickly recognized by scholars at home and abroad, and more vigorous research enthusiasm was exerted. The international symposium on Huizhou culture went from Huangshan (Huizhou) to Hefei, Shanghai and Beijing, and all the way to Maryland, USA. Why does a local culture arouse such strong interest in academic circles at home and abroad? Why did it develop into a powerful academic research team at home and abroad? This should be considered not only from the comprehensiveness, richness, vividness, inheritance and even classicality of Huizhou culture, but also from Huizhou culture as a microcosm of China culture and a portrayal of China society, especially in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Chinese culture, with Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism as its main connotation, has a history of 5,000 years and has been carried forward consistently, attracting worldwide attention. The existence of more than 10,000 ancient buildings and the accumulation of tens of thousands of documents in Huizhou have become intuitive materials of China's cultural history, ideological history, economic history and folk history, and are also cherished by the world. These, I have another article to express some views. Here I use "one, two, three" to briefly explain the formation of Huizhou culture:

A special social composition, two wonderful external channels and three unique basic conditions. And use this as a reference for academic friends.

In Huizhou, the lack of mountains and more land is one of the reasons why people want to go out, which has been expounded in many papers. However, there are many mountainous areas in China, and some people go out, so it is impossible to form a distinctive local naming culture. It is necessary to conduct a new study on the reasons why Huizhou people go out. I think:

There is an obvious feature in the composition of Huizhou social members: many Huizhou people are prominent families, aristocratic families or scholarly children in the Central Plains. Many people fled to Huizhou because of the change of the central plains court and frequent wars. Because the mountain was closed and the news was easy to break, it remained anonymous and survived. Others come to Huizhou as officials and stay in Huizhou due to social changes or personal reasons, such as the surname Hu of Jixi. Huizhou is located at 28-29 north latitude, with mild climate and abundant rainfall, which is just a good place for recuperation. Ancestors or themselves came from the outside, knowing that the outside world was wonderful, they made up their minds to go out and break new ground, start a new career and open up a new world. For example, the Jiang surname in Yangzhou is mostly from Jiyang who came to Huizhou to settle in Yangzhou. The Zhang family in Huzhou was originally a waiting family, while the Zhang family in Qinghe came to Huizhou and settled in Huzhou. There are countless examples of this. There are two ways for Huizhou people to go out of Huizhou: one is a businessman, and the other is an examiner. Both of them should be literate, and form an atmosphere of "Joule doesn't care about books, and books are like pigs" and "the hometown of ten households does not waste reading". Many businessmen come from bitter backgrounds. "They were born in Huizhou when they were thirteen or fourteen, but they stayed abroad." Huizhou, a special snack that can be preserved for a long time, is on their backs? Bring salted duck eggs to cook. "Don't worry, go to Yuhang in three days, the duck eggs are not yellow." Step by step to Yuhang, Lin 'an, Jianping, Meizhu, Xiaofeng ... The waterway is Xin 'anjiang, the canal is the Yangtze River, and the whole country and the whole world. There is also "no town without emblem", and Mr. Hu Shi added "no street without achievement" Huizhou merchants have flourished for hundreds of years and spread all over the country. Reading is a social fashion in Huizhou. Being an official is the ideal destination, being the top scholar is the goal, and learning is the ladder. In Huizhou, scholars are insignificant. It is not worth mentioning that only those who have been admitted to the imperial examination are on the honor roll (memorial arch). Xiongcun is a village. In Ming and Qing dynasties, there were thirty or forty scholars and two prime ministers. Now there are archways marked "Four Generations and One Product" and "Prime Ministers of Father and Son". The official career can be entered, and the text is a military commander; Can't enter, "Eight Immortals cross the sea to show their magical powers", and business is the first choice. The quality characteristics of Confucian merchants becoming Huizhou merchants. This is why "learning is good, doing business is good, and it is effective." Those who learn well are all good. It is a characteristic of Huizhou culture to learn to be an official. Two ways out, groups of people out. The formation of Huizhou people "thirteen in the city, seventeen outside" 70% of Huizhou people are Xanadu. Among Jingdezhen 100000 people, 80000 are from Huizhou, and there are more than1000 in 300 Xidi villages in Yixian County. There are many Huizhou people who open Four Treasures of the Study stores and jewelry stores in Beijing Liulichang. At that time, the largest building to the west of Zhengyangmen was Shexian Guild Hall. Even now, President Hong of Korea University, hundreds of thousands of Zhu surnames in Jizhou area, Americans and so on. They are all recognized Huizhou people. So I often invite some foreigners back to Huizhou (ancestral home). Including ginger, pan, Wu, Fang, Wang, Cheng, Bao, Zhang, Huang, Ye and so on.

Because many Huizhou people are officials and businessmen, and a large number of them are in other places, they have created unique conditions for the formation of Huizhou culture that are not found elsewhere. Huizhou merchants are the economic basis of Huizhou culture; A large number of officials and literati in Huizhou constantly increase cultural exchanges and absorption, which is not only the power base, but also an important social base. Zhu is the founder of Neo-Confucianism, which has influenced the Song Dynasty for 800 years, and has always been marked by "newness". He not only believed that he was from Xin 'an (Huizhou), but also came to Huizhou many times to give lectures and worship his ancestors. After the Southern Song Dynasty, Huizhou's temporary stability and prosperity also promoted the spread and diffusion of Zhu's theory. Zhu Zi's Family Instructions and Zhu Zhi's Family Instructions by Zhu's descendants are well-known in Huizhou, forming the ideological basis for unifying people's behavior.

These three basic conditions appeared in the special environment of Huizhou, and it is difficult for any region to have them at the same time. Huizhou culture is the epitome of China culture. Huizhou is a heavy precipitation area of China's traditional ideology and culture: Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. It is because there are two channels that keep coming in and out, and it is because there is an ideological norm. It is because Huizhou mountain people are not the self-obsessed character of mountain people. This has opened up a brand-new situation in the whole country, and made Xin 'an Neo-Confucianism, Huizhou architecture, Xin 'an medicine, Huizhou literature and art, Huizhou merchants and Huizhou cuisine in Huizhou culture emerge in the whole country and even in the world.

The study of Huizhou studies confirmed the concept of Huizhou culture, demonstrated its real existence and proved its great value. From the Han cultural circle to Europe and America. It is precisely because Huizhou culture is the rich connotation of studying China's history and China's commerce, enterprise, art, medicine, education and science and technology. A large number of existing Huizhou documents and ground monuments are extremely vivid teaching materials. Carrying forward Huizhou culture is also carrying forward Chinese culture. Cultural identity, studying the cultural differences between the East and the West, and studying the particularity of the historical development of the East and the West are all academic contents of Huizhou cultural researchers. The study of Huizhou culture is a great undertaking connecting the past with the future. Not only many scholars and experts from all walks of life in China are interested in this cause, but also many foreign friends are very enthusiastic. The study of Huizhou culture has entered a new historical stage, which is worth celebrating.

Huizhou, which is now Huangshan City, has naturally become the most attractive tourist attraction with its high-grade, high-grade and high-density human landscape and natural landscape. Copy, not write it all.
