Why China is a sleeping lion

Reason: Because Napoleon believed that China was a vast and rich country with a profound heritage. It was the biggest folly in the world to fight against China, a vast and rich empire, but at the time of Napoleon's counting, China had not yet developed, and he called China a "sleeping lion's stove".

The lion is majestic, mighty, and not to be messed with, and Napoleon's statement is obviously a very high opinion of China, in fact, he said it more than once.

Napoleon first said this sentence in 1903 before he ascended the throne, but some people say that the phrase "sleeping lion" is a miscommunication in translation, in fact, after this sentence he said another sentence, Napoleon at that time pointed to China on the map and said:

Here, lies a sleeping lion that, once awakened, will shock the whole world! This sentence does not sound wrong, more like a prophecy of his prediction, predicting the strength of China after awakening, but later he added: "It sleeps, let it sleep forever!"

3 All before China's reform and opening up, and even before China's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, under the closed country of the Qing Dynasty, China was very weak at that time, and the people's lives were also very poor and miserable, and some powerful countries in the world at that time looked down on China, but after decades of rapid development in China, China is standing on the Asian plate with the posture of a lion, as Napoleon said, China is a sleeping lion, is this sentence true, or is Napoleon a man very far-sighted?

In fact, Napoleon's words according to the relevant statement came from Napoleon's exile in St. Helena, and the reason for this sentence was that there was a small ** in Britain at that time to go to China to deal with some things, after seeing the emperor, the Chinese people at that time let the emperor kneel, and he did not want to be driven out of China, and this soldier believed that only by defeating China could they change their mind, so after he returned to his own country, he thought about Wang Jianyi to attack China!

And in the process of returning, he happened to meet Napoleon like Napoleon asked Napoleon's opinion, and simply narrated the situation in China to Napoleon, and Napoleon simply said after listening to it, China is a sleeping lion, and when it wakes up again, the world will tremble!

In fact, Nabrun's statement is still very correct, during the Tang Dynasty in our country, China was very strong, it can be said that it was the world's largest power at that time, until the Qing Dynasty closed the country, which led to our country gradually derailed from the world, so as to move from prosperity to weakness!

Napoleon once said: China is a sleeping lion. The sleeping lion is still a lion!

It's still scary and daunting. For Napoleon and other competitors of Chinese civilization and culture, the task was to make the lion sleep forever, or to make him wake up without his memory and become a tame lamb who did not know what he was. In the madness of the Eight-Power Alliance, a Yuanmingyuan was burned down, but it can still be rebuilt, and China is divided into several leased lands, and we can still take it back, but if we destroy Chinese culture and civilization, Chinese can no longer be Chinese, and how to destroy China's culture and civilization is the most nerve-wracking thing for Napoleon, because this is the final battle to destroy a national spirit and eliminate a nation.

It's not basically a compliment, but it's exactly what he said.

It was Napoleon who spent the night alone in the Egyptian pyramids with a sarcophagus in the pyramids, and he was so frightened that he never said what was going on, except that he said, "In the east, a sleeping lion is awakening." The son of the lion is the 'lamb', and the sheep refers to the Yangcheng of Guangzhou, which is the starting point of reform and opening up. The awakening of the lion mentioned by the Russian prodigy Boriska refers to the reform and opening up that began in Guangdong, because Yangcheng is the political center.

Yes, but I can't remember exactly when it was.
