1, parenting culture
Since ancient times, China has always been a loving mother with many children, and killed a dutiful son with a stick (strict father gave birth to a dutiful son). A successful child can not be separated from his father's strict discipline and his mother's moderate care. This truth has not been accepted by most families for two main reasons. The first is the one-child policy in the late 1980s. A family has only one child, and it is too late to spoil it. Who wants to fight? Thirdly, it is the influence of foreign cultural input. In many foreign cultures, especially in the west, we should give priority to encouraging children, supplemented by preaching. It is forbidden to beat and scold children. Now this parenting culture has gained the upper hand, deeply affecting young parents.
2. Western festivals such as Christmas, Halloween and April Fool's Day and their related cultures;
China has its own unique festivals since ancient times, such as Dragon Boat Festival, Tomb-Sweeping Day, Mid-Autumn Festival and so on. These festivals are still very important, but for young people, more and more young people like some western festivals, such as Christmas, Halloween and April Fool's Day. It can be said that young people prefer western festivals imported from abroad, while middle-aged and elderly people prefer traditional festivals in China.
3. KFC, McDonald's, Burger King, Pizza Hut and other fast food cultures;
This catering culture has deeply influenced all walks of life, such as hamburgers, sandwiches, hot dogs, steaks, cheese and other western food; Snacks such as potato chips, popcorn, marshmallows, rainbow beans and chewing gum, as well as drinks such as foreign wine and freshly squeezed juice, which are mainly Coca-Cola, coffee, red wine and cocktails, can be said to have just left after 1999, and they all have some love for them. Of course, China's traditional drinks and Chinese food have also influenced the world, especially China's boiled water, which has also begun to spread to the world.
4. Time unit of "week"
It can be said that before the Republic of China, China had no concept of Zhou. In ancient China, apart from family affairs, officials only had two days off on the first day and the fifteenth day of each month, and one or two days off on important festivals. There are really no other holidays, let alone other classes, which can be said to be all year round. Since the concept of Zhou was put forward, there have been nine-to-five holidays, Saturday and Sunday, Golden Week and other rest days, which have indeed brought many benefits to migrant workers.
Step 5 get married
In many places in China, the traditional wedding custom in China continues, and the newlyweds pay homage to each other. However, in more and more places, more and more links began to imitate western customs. When men propose to women, they must kneel down with flowers in their hands. At the wedding scene, the groom wears a suit and the bride wears a wedding dress. The lines spoken by the wedding host are almost the bridge in foreign movies. More importantly, China people like red when they get married, but western weddings are mainly white, including wedding dresses, wedding rings and diamonds.
6, the second element, animation, etc.
This culture comes from Japan. Who would have thought that China's greatest influence in the animation industry was in the 1950s and 1960s, when ink painting, paper-cut culture, gourd dolls and tadpoles were looking for their mothers. Japanese animation shocked the world, affecting not only China, but also the whole world. At the same time, it brought secondary culture, forest culture, animation culture and secondary culture. Of course, these are all minority cultures.
7. Fitness culture
People in China don't exercise and don't have enough to eat. How can they have time to exercise? Those who are full are practicing martial arts. Neither the iron sand palm nor five elements boxing has anything to do with lifting barbells. With the introduction of western fitness culture and the improvement of living standards, more and more people have joined the ranks of fitness, not dancing in square dance or playing Tai Chi, but going to the gym to run and lift barbells. At the same time, taekwondo, yoga, aerobics and so on. It has also begun to enter the public eye, as evidenced by more and more classes.
8. American TV series R & B, Hip-hop and other entertainment cultures such as POP, DISCO, KTV and Hip-Hop.
This culture developed from the rise of the Internet, from disco, KTV, break dancing to R&; B and hip-hop, and then to American TV series, English TV series, Hollywood and other entertainment products, have influenced more and more young people. Zombies in China didn't go out of the world, while vampires and zombies in the West flooded the screen of China.
9. Divination culture such as constellations and cards.
Since ancient times, China has also had divination, Gankun Bagua, Zhouyi geomantic omen, and easy counting of plum blossoms, all of which are very profound divination cultures. Perhaps, perhaps it is because they are too abstruse and difficult to learn, which gives room for the invasion of pure western divination culture. The divination culture such as constellations and cards has quickly occupied the minds of young people, while the divination culture in China is only popular in southern China and some places in Southeast Asia.
10, cowboy, motorcycle jacket, bell bottoms and other clothing culture;
Zhongshan suit is the last bastion of China's costume culture, but it has been conquered. From cowboy to bell mouth, from miniskirt to shorts, from beach pants to thong, it seems that China's clothing culture has really disappeared, and China's clothing has become history.
