China is both an ancient country as well as a rising power, we must face this fact: while introducing and acquiring all the fruits of world civilization with an open mind, China is also exporting its culture to the world with the objective of contributing to world development. This process includes, of course, the culture created by Chinese merchants globally, and is both a proactive and self-motivated internationalization.
