Why is there almost no culture in modern China?

The reasons for the lack of cultural masters in modern China were complicated, involving political, economic, social, historical and many other factors. In terms of politics, due to the acceleration of China's modernisation process and the implementation of reform and opening up, the political power of the country gradually concentrated in the hands of the central government, and the cultural field was no exception. This meant that the autonomy and development space of the cultural field were greatly limited, resulting in serious restrictions on innovation and creation in the cultural field. In terms of economy, the acceleration of China's modernisation process had brought about economic development and prosperity, but at the same time, it had also brought about the poverty of the cultural field. Due to the lack of planning and guidance for the development of the cultural industry, cultural enterprises lacked core competitiveness, and some excellent traditional cultural projects were not protected and inherited enough. In terms of society, the acceleration of China's modernisation process has led to population movements and the aggravation of the rural-urban gap, which has challenged and impacted traditional cultural values and lifestyle. This also led to the lack of variety and tolerance in the cultural field, making it difficult to produce classic works with wide influence and cultural value. In terms of history, the beginning of China's modern process was a long period of turmoil and war in ruins. This caused the values and expressions of traditional culture to be seriously disturbed and destroyed, making it difficult to pass on and carry forward. In summary, the reasons for the lack of cultural masters in the field of modern Chinese culture are more complicated and need to be reflected and improved from many aspects.
