The Pre-Qin period's Hundred Schools of Thought Contending referred to the extensive and in-depth intellectual struggles and academic debates between various Chinese ideologists, educating experts, and cultural celebrities during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. During this period, many different schools and ideologists appeared, including Confucianism, Taoism, Mohism, Famous School, Legalism, Military School, Yin-Yang School, Confucianism, Taoism, and so on. These schools of thought argued with each other for market share and social status, forming a unique cultural scene in the Warring States Period. Among them, the most famous were Confucianism, Taoism, and Mohism.
The division of the pre-Qin literary schools usually included the following five main schools: 1.

The debate of the Hundred Schools of Thought in the Pre-Qin period was an important period in the history of ancient Chinese thought and also an important stage in the development of Chinese thought and culture. Mr. Yi Zhongtian provided us with a valuable perspective to understand the ideology, culture, politics and other aspects of this period through the in-depth analysis of the Pre-Qin philosophers. In his speech, Mr. Yi Zhongtian emphasized the characteristics of a hundred schools of thought contending for power, influence, and status. These schools of thought included Confucianism, Taoism, Mohism, Legalism, militarists, and famous schools. There were huge differences between them, but they influenced and complemented each other. Mr. Yi Zhongtian used vivid cases and specific characters to show the thoughts and practices of these schools of thought, allowing us to have a deeper understanding of the characteristics and significance of these thoughts. In addition, Mr. Yi Zhongtian also emphasized the influence of the Contending of a Hundred Schools of Thought on ancient Chinese politics and culture. He believed that the debate of a hundred schools of thought had promoted the exchange and collision between different schools of thought, and promoted the richness of Chinese ideology and culture. At the same time, the debate of a hundred schools of thought also provided new ideas and plans for ancient Chinese politics and injected new vitality into the development of ancient culture. In short, Mr. Yi Zhongtian's speech on the debate of the Hundred Schools of Thought in the Pre-Qin period gave me a deeper understanding of the characteristics, historical background, schools of thought, and influence of the debate of the Hundred Schools of Thought. I think this speech can not only help us better understand ancient Chinese culture, but also provide valuable reference and enlightenment for our academic research and cultural inheritance.
