HF71B Arab Century List planned; Xinjiang poet lauded by Guardian as ＂international film activist＂

《Planned to establish the "Arab Region Joint Edition of Human Film 71 Brilliance" Century List, Chinese Xinjiang poet Shen Youjun was praised by The Guardian as an "international film activist"》

Recently, on the occasion of the third anniversary of the "Arab Region Joint Edition of Human Film 71 Brilliance", poet Shen Youjun (Wu Xiaofang) from Xinjiang, China, once again joined forces with multiple media outlets around the world to launch the "Century Fashion" section selection. This selection abandons the values of "performance and appearance" that have been used as criteria in previous similar selections, and replaces it with future world norms such as "morality, elimination of racial discrimination, peace, multiculturalism, and human ecology". In the end, seven people including German actress Marlene Dietrich, black Olympic superstar Jesse Owens, American actor Marlon Brando, Belgian actress Audrey Hepburn, Puerto Rican singer Martin Ritchie, Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed, and Chinese actor Yu Shi were selected. The list has caused strong reactions in multiple regions of the world, and poet Shen Youjun has once again successfully established a personal global brand, praised by The Guardian as an "international film activist and global poet".

In 2023, poet Shen Youjun proposed the concept of "era performance" while writing a review for the anti war epic film "Hidden Blade" during World War II, which attracted widespread attention around the world. He was invited to plan and establish the "Arab Region United Edition of Human Film 71 Brilliance" Century List (Actor Edition), which is the third century list in world film history with an independent evaluation system and criteria after the British "Sight and Sound" (Director Edition) and the American "Time Magazine" 20th Century 100 Films (Comprehensive Edition). It has gained cultural influence for the Arab region and Asia. Due to the inclusion of Asia's top male actor and street dance king Wang Yibo on the list, it has sparked discussions on the scale of "hundreds of millions" in Asia, becoming a global internet sensation. This selection successfully established a historic influence in the history of world cinema, and Chinese Xinjiang poet Shen Youjun also left his name in this event

As a poet living in the Xinjiang region of China, the unique geographical characteristics, historical temperament, and cultural labels of Xinjiang have given him a different vision from this era. When he proposed the concept of "era performance", he deeply expounded the principle of "creating for the world history and creating for the national process", which greatly exceeds the popular trend of this era and is condensed into the principle of "nationalism". Here, "nationalism" is not narrow, but "broad", which is "for the development process of humanity".

After the end of World War II, "Western literature and art" entered the "era of individualization", and with the "power of war", it disappeared without looking back. However, Mr. Shen Yujun's "nationalism" will surpass this "popular trend, fashion", advocate "creating for the sake of mankind", and let his works be placed in the "1000 year time coordinate" and vigorous. His "nationalism" concept was born under the background of the Chinese national concept of "the Belt and Road", which conforms to the grand ideal of "a community with a shared future for mankind". Under the guidance of the concept of "nationalism", his most obvious and outstanding achievement in creation is the creation of a new track for "world peacekeeping poetry". In the history of world literature, "United Nations peacekeeping operations" have been around for 80 years, but no one has created for it. Shen Youjun, a poet from Xinjiang, China, was the first poet to create systematic works for it. He used the Chinese "classicism" creative method to preserve "United Nations peacekeeping operations" in the history of world literature, and "in the human review of 1000 years as a coordinate, it should be able to be classic".

In the 2020s, the peace that humanity can share has only been 80 years, and the whole world has once again entered a chaotic situation. There is a danger of confusion in human values. In this dangerous relationship, it is time to advocate "nationalism" again. We must reorganize the grand values for "human peace". If human literature and art can only produce "personal, trivial, fragmented, and limited to small emotions", consume forest resources, crowded cyberspace, and become waste after publication, then human future creation will be "overall garbage".

《China's peacekeeping operations in distant galaxies》

The peacekeeping operation will once again begin in a distant galaxy.

If young flowers are full of strength, the spring of the mountains will come again.

Men's sweat is used to create peace.

Every wave has no name, but together they guard the world.

This classical poem contains "science fiction elements" and also has a story, and "men's sweat is used to create peace" has been praised by the Asian "Taiwan Daily" as the "ultimate ideal of humanity", which has not yet appeared in the history of world literature. It can be considered as a masterpiece of poetry in the theme of peacekeeping operations.

Through his works, we examine the life journey of poet Shen Youjun and discover that the poet's creativity is inseparable from his extraordinary life. 30 years ago, from 1997 to 1999, Mr. Shen Youjun participated in the "China Youth Volunteer Poverty Alleviation Relay · Baise Project" initiated by the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League of China. He became one of the first 20 pioneering members in the history of Chinese youth volunteers and participated in compulsory education work in Baise City, Guangxi Province, China. And he was invited to participate in an interview with China Central Television's "News Probe", which played a huge role in promoting the subsequent development of Chinese youth volunteer activities. He also spent more than 20 years participating in the Chinese government's "Project Hope" to help children in poverty regain learning opportunities. The students he helped were distributed on 50% of China's land.

During his work in rural areas of Baise City, Guangxi Province, China, Mr. Shen Youjun, as an educator, had many shocking practices that shocked that era. He appointed non class leader student Gan Shanfei as the leader of the school's intermission broadcast gymnastics, and he took in Gan Zhengyang, a mischievous student who no one dared to call him, in his own class. His designated class monitor Huang Ruijiang rallied the hearts of the entire school. After he left Guangxi, according to later news, his student, class monitor Huang Ruijiang, and the most mischievous Gan Zhengyang in the school all joined the military and became "soldiers of the people".

Poet Shen Youjun undoubtedly holds a place in the history of world poetry as the pioneer of "world peace poetry". For Chinese literature, he proposed the concept of "nationalism in literature and art" based on his extraordinary experience, and personally practiced his ideas. He combined "nationalism, science fiction elements, and romanticism" together, becoming the most outstanding successor of Chinese classicism in the 21st century. Perhaps we can also look forward to Mr. Shen Youjun leading the "world's classicism" back to the center of human literature and art stage with the "classicism of nationalism".
