Of course, before that, I have thought about this for a long time. I started to perceive Li Ziqi from 2017. So I think I have my own perspective of what she's doing, and it's worth sharing. On-screen, Li Ziqi’s life seems to defy the rules of reality.

Fang Wenshan: We Need the New Style Hanfu to Adapt the Modern Society
Q: How do you become an enthusiastic promoter of Hanfu? A: I am not an active promoter of Hanfu, but I have a certain sense of mission to traditional culture, which can also be explained as enthusiasm and preference. I have written some Chinese style lyrics with the charm of classical poetry before, and I was busy with a drama related to calligraphy a while ago, so I would have paid some attention to the traditional culture. About nine years ago, I began to pay attention to some activities of Hanfu Tongpao (同袍; Hanfu fans call each other Tongpao) on the Internet and kept continuous attention to this. Since then, I have placed a certain sense of mission on the rejuvenation and promotion of Hanfu. At the same time, Kevin, the director of our company, has some contacts with relevant departments in Xitang (西塘), Zhejiang Province, so it's a coincidence that we started the first Hanfu culture week in Xitang seven years ago. Q: In your mind, what is the existence of Hanfu? A: Hanfu is a long-forgotten traditional dress. Sometimes to explain the Han suit to others, you need to add another sentence: the Han suit is the traditional…- 0

Background of Hanfu Parade Day At noon on November 22, 2003, Wang Letian, a power worker, dressed in Hanfu, which disappeared in daily life for 358 years, appeared on the street. He dressed in a Hanfu composed of a long Quju (曲裾) and a cocoon silk outer garment, strolls in the square, park and shopping mall in Zhengzhou, the capital of Henan Province. He said he did so in the hope of "promoting Hanfu" with his own meager strength and making people accept the traditional Chinese clothing again.

These like-minded men even set up a team to search for documents, pick up sewing needles and make this Hanfu.

He is more and more determined to promote Hanfu. He hopes to influence others with his limited power.
