闪耀吧，中华文明

《闪耀吧！中华文明》用历史谜题做牵引，以考古现场、文明遗址和各大博物馆为探索场景，以一线考古专家、资深文博历史学者的真实经历和研究成果为支撑，以推理解谜的创新表达方式，带领观众一起走近这些令我们骄傲的文化遗产。

A new culture reality show,The Mystery of China,released on a Chinese streaming site, tells the stories of six of these cultural treasures. The show not only visited archaeology sites, but also asked culture scholars and archaeologists to help audiences gain a better and deeper understanding of these cultural treasures.

According to Li Bing, the show's producer,“who we are”and“where we come from”are key questions on the route to“finding our genes”.“We hope to record the glorious moments of our more than 5,000-year-long history. That is our intention behind the show,”said Li.

The show visited some of China's most well-known cultural sites, like the Mogao Grottoes and the Emperor Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum Site Museum, approaching them from different angles (角度). How to introduce these cultural sites in the best way was something that the production team had troubles with.

“Chinese history is so long that if we follow chronological (按时间顺序的) order, then we would have to start with the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties or even earlier. That is not the way we learn history. A collection of thousands of objects for the royal family of the Tang Dynasty was unearthed in 1970 in a small village in Northwest China's Shaanxi Province. Who buried them and why they did so? There are so many questions to be answered.Telling these stories is something we hope to do to allow audiences to discover more about these shining cultural symbols,”Li said.
