When modernity dates tradition and East meets West
(Xinhua)
Updated: 2008-08-07 20:50 As China has 253 million Internet users, according to a July 24 report by China Internet Network Information Center (CNNIC), and more than one-third of Chinese had cell phones, it was fair to expect only more people would be exposed to the publicity of China's traditional heritages. In Beijing, Li Na sends her boyfriend text messages that say "Eternal love between us two, shall withstand the time apart," a famous quote from a classic Chinese poem on Qixi. Such action is a modern-day version of delivering affection, albeit high-tech, traditionally romantic and deeply Chinese. |
