There was no doubt that Gusu City was beautiful.
There was heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below. It was not just for show.
Gusu was known as the " Garden City of China " because of its unique landscape. Among the four famous gardens in China, the Humble Administrator's Garden and the Lingering Garden occupied two seats.
In addition, the city was crisscrossed with canals and dense water network, which was known as the "Venice of the East".
It was not too much to cherish such a city.
However, no one expected Liu Chuan's grandfather, Liu Hengzhi, to make a huge contribution to the protection of the city's cultural heritage.
It was no wonder that he was later sent by the country to work for the United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization.
He had the vague title of "the number one person to protect the world's heritage" in the country.
The Air Force of the Republic of China," saving the nation by air " was too far away for young people.
However, Gusu City was indeed real to everyone.
Especially the story of Liu Chuan's grandfather, Liu Heng, and the Gusu Museum, which was even more interesting.
The Gusu Museum was too popular.
It was so popular that it was out of the circle.
It was also the only museum in the country that was designed by the world-famous architect, Pei Yuming.
Its iconic geometric architectural style, coupled with standard green tiles and white walls, gardens and mountains, the courtyard was well-arranged.
The building itself was a work of art.
It had already become popular all over the internet and became a famous internet celebrity. There was an endless stream of travelers going to check in every day.
This was rare in the country.
All of a sudden, the netizens in the live broadcast room posted photos of themselves opening it at the Gusu Museum.
All kinds of beautiful photos kept flooding the screen.
In an instant, the Gusu Museum became a trending topic.
It turned out that so many netizens in the live broadcast room had gone to Su Bo to check in.
This way, when they discussed the story of Liu Chuan's grandfather and Su Bo, everyone became even more immersed.
A tiger father does not have a dog son.
In his own field, Liu Hengzhi had indeed done his best and did not tarnish his parents 'reputation.
Su Bo's official Weibo also followed the hot topic and began to promote Su Bo. He even linked Dream to Hanshan Temple.
The person in charge of the media department even contacted the program team immediately and invited Liu Chuan to participate in the filming of the public service promotion video.
They even @ the production team, hoping that the second stop would be Su Bo.
Su Bo was still very confident about this.
After all, Mr. Liu was Su Bo's old director. As his grandson, it was not too much to ask Liu Chuan to endorse Su Bo, right?
No matter what, they were still on the same side.
This relationship was even closer than that of Cold Mountain Temple.
All of a sudden, the official Weibo accounts of other scenic spots followed suit,@ the program team to check in at their scenic spots.
There was nothing he could do. After all, there were so many scenic spots in Gusu City that were listed as World Cultural Heritage.
If the production team had been checking in at the major historical sites in Gusu City, they would probably not have been able to leave Gusu City by the end of the season.
Although Liu Chuan's grandfather had never been a leader of the various scenic area management offices, he had a lot to do with the successful application of these scenic spots.
From this aspect, there was no problem at all.
Therefore, they also hoped that Liu Chuan could shoot a public service video for them.
In this way, the Gusu Landscape Bureau was even more determined to hire Liu Chuan as a tourism ambassador.
It was all over the internet.
It had to be him!
At this moment, Shan Qixiang revealed another piece of news.
"Actually, Elder Liu's contribution to the success of Gusu Garden's application for World Heritage is also indispensable.”
Boom!
This revelation was even more shocking than the archaeological discovery and Su Bo.
The Gusu Garden was a world cultural heritage.
His influence was world-wide.
His success in applying for the World Heritage was actually related to Liu Chuan's grandfather?
Oh my god, this was too awesome.
Fortunately, Shan Qixiang did not make everyone wait too long. He immediately began to explain the ins and outs of the matter.
"The total number of World Heritage sites in our country has reached 55, ranking first in the world.
However, many people did not know that in fact, China started very late on the road of applying for the World Heritage.
In the spring of 1984, Academician Hou and his wife went to Cornell University in the United States to give lectures. During this period, they listened to the " Convention for the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage " for the first time. It was a famous international convention passed by the United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization on November 16, 1972.
At that time, the convention had been around for 12 years, but almost no one in the country had noticed its existence.
However, at that time, China was not a member of the convention at all, so it was not qualified to apply for the World Heritage.
This made Academician Hou unable to let go.
At that time, the domestic media was jointly proposing a social sponsorship for the maintenance of the Great Wall. The general public expressed their heartfelt passion and active participation in the maintenance of this majestic but gradually declining historical site.
This event also attracted the attention of many people internationally.
Therefore, Academician Hou urgently felt that he should speed up the process of China joining the Convention for the Protection of World Cultural and Natural Heritage.
After returning to China, Academician Hou immediately began to actively promote this matter.
They also proposed the " proposal No. 663 " at the two sessions. This was the " four-person proposal " that started China's history of World Heritage.
This was because other than Academician Hou, three other academicians had also signed this proposal.
This heavyweight proposal was quickly passed.
Therefore, the following year, on December 12, 1985, China became a party to the World Heritage Convention.
In December 1987, at the 11th session of the World Heritage Committee, six cultural and natural heritages, namely the Palace Museum, the Peking Man Ruins in Zhoukoudian, Mount Tai, the Great Wall, the Mausoleum of the First Emperor of Qin (including the Terracotta Warriors and Horses), and the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang, were included in the World Heritage List.
In fact, at this time, far away in Gusu, under the push of Elder Liu, the Gusu Garden Bureau was also actively promoting the application of the Gusu Garden.
Unfortunately, Gusu Garden was not selected.
Even so, Gusu City did not give up and continued to actively promote this matter.
Elder Liu was also actively running around.
He continued to improve the preparations for the Gusu Garden. Finally, in 1997, the application for the World Heritage was successful.
Therefore, Elder Liu was also known as the father of the Gusu Gardens 'application. If it weren't for Elder Liu's active efforts in those years, the Gusu Gardens' application would have been delayed by at least ten to twenty years.
It could be said that Liu Chuan's grandfather had contributed greatly to Gusu City's reputation as a World Cultural Heritage City.
If it weren't for his repeated calls for action, there wouldn't have been so many gardens in Gusu City that were included in the World Cultural Heritage List.
At the same time, in order to give the other gardens a better chance to promote themselves, he would reluctantly remove Liu Yuan from the list every time he applied for the World Heritage site.
Because there were only so many gardens that could be declared as World Heritage each time. If Liu Yuan was declared as World Heritage, the other Liu Yuan would definitely not be selected.
Under such circumstances, it was not appropriate to take down any of the gardens.
As a result, there were two stories of Liu Yuan missing out on the World Cultural Heritage List. I think this is also the reason why our program team of "China in Heritage" chose to place their first stop at Liu Yuan.
……”
After the story was finished, the entire internet went into an uproar.
So this was the truth behind Liu Yuan's refusal to apply for the World Heritage.
This was indeed an admirable old man.
Therefore, the netizens in the live broadcast room flooded the screen, thanking Elder Liu for bringing the Gusu Garden to the world's attention.
He wanted Gusu Garden to enter the World Heritage List 20 years earlier.
