沈中明的和合情懷

劉凡力 張涵涵

浙江天臺(tái)山，鐘靈毓秀的自然風(fēng)貌，鼓蕩出吐納山海的壯美氣象，涵育出中華文化最為動(dòng)人的和美光華。這里是中華和合文化的發(fā)祥地，和合理念家喻戶(hù)曉、深入人心。

在天臺(tái)，談及和合文化，不得不提沈中明與和合人間文化園。沈中明，天臺(tái)縣人，浙江明豐實(shí)業(yè)股份有限公司董事長(zhǎng)、浙江省汽車(chē)用品行業(yè)協(xié)會(huì)會(huì)長(zhǎng)，從小受和合文化的熏陶與影響，并受益良多，對(duì)和合文化情有獨(dú)鐘。早年，國(guó)內(nèi)沒(méi)有專(zhuān)門(mén)保護(hù)宣傳和合文化的主題場(chǎng)所，在寒山、拾得留下過(guò)足跡與傳說(shuō)的地方建一座以和合為主題的文化園，成為沈中明先生揮之不去的情懷。

2008年，明豐公司搬遷新址，20世紀(jì)70年代的老廠房正好用于改造再利用，為和合人間文化園的創(chuàng)辦提供了契機(jī)。在沈中明心目中，傳承發(fā)展中華優(yōu)秀傳統(tǒng)文化是義不容辭的責(zé)任，建和合人間文化園必將利國(guó)利民、澤被后人，比商業(yè)開(kāi)發(fā)更有意義。于是，他與兒子沈盛鋼開(kāi)始組建團(tuán)隊(duì)，進(jìn)行前期規(guī)劃建設(shè)，由沈盛鋼負(fù)責(zé)向海內(nèi)外征集與和合文化相關(guān)的文物史料。籌建期間，添置文體設(shè)施，將場(chǎng)所無(wú)償提供給市民開(kāi)展文化體育活動(dòng)，30余萬(wàn)人次受益于這一善舉。

歷經(jīng)幾年艱辛，2015年5月16日，中國(guó)首座和合文化主題博物館——天臺(tái)和合博物館建成開(kāi)館，落戶(hù)和合人間文化園，對(duì)征集的3000多件和合文化實(shí)物及史料，進(jìn)行集中保護(hù)和展出。全球和合史料庫(kù)初具規(guī)模，成為講述和合文化的重要窗口和活動(dòng)基地。開(kāi)館至今，接待海內(nèi)外專(zhuān)家學(xué)者和游客等超50萬(wàn)人次。

目前，和合人間文化園積極與美國(guó)、日本、韓國(guó)、加拿大等國(guó)開(kāi)展主題交流活動(dòng)，接待各國(guó)訪(fǎng)問(wèn)團(tuán)參觀考察;參與推動(dòng)加拿大中國(guó)和合文化研究會(huì)、日本東京和合文化驛站成立，在和合文化的海外傳播中起到了極大的促進(jìn)推動(dòng)作用。

此外，和合人間文化園相繼建成一根藤藝術(shù)館、滿(mǎn)堂紅婚俗館等。一根藤藝術(shù)館共征集了500多件各個(gè)時(shí)期的“一根藤”經(jīng)典作品，進(jìn)行保護(hù)、展示、傳承。同時(shí)，成立“一根藤工坊”，用于培養(yǎng)傳承人及開(kāi)發(fā)衍生作品。作品多次獲國(guó)家級(jí)、省級(jí)、金獎(jiǎng)、銀獎(jiǎng)，中央電視臺(tái)四套、九套、十套，央視網(wǎng)、央視頻等給予專(zhuān)題報(bào)道，廣為傳播。滿(mǎn)堂紅婚俗館通過(guò)重現(xiàn)傳統(tǒng)地方婚慶場(chǎng)景，弘揚(yáng)“忠孝仁愛(ài)、家庭和合”的傳統(tǒng)美德。

和合人間文化園的有序建設(shè)，圓了沈中明最初的“和合夢(mèng)”，每一次的提升都凝聚了他的心血與智慧。沈中明對(duì)和合文化保護(hù)、傳播、弘揚(yáng)的堅(jiān)定與執(zhí)著，讓他在當(dāng)?shù)刳A得了“和合文化傳播大使”的美譽(yù)。

Shen Zhongming and His Love for the Hehe Culture

By Liu Fanli? Zhang Hanhan

Tiantai Mountain in Zhejiang province is known for its charming sceneries and magnificent peaks. Indeed， around Tiantai Mountain lies the quintessence of the Chinese culture， for it is the cradle of the Hehe culture， and it is the place where the idea of Hehe （harmony and cooperation） has long grown into the hearts of local people.

In Tiantai county， when it comes to the Hehe culture， we cannot get past Shen Zhongming and the Hehe Cultural Park he helped build. Born in Tiantai county， Shen is the chairman of the board at Zhejiang Mingfeng Industrial Co. Ltd.， and president of Zhejiang Car Utilities Industry Association. Nurtured by the Hehe culture since his childhood， Shen took a special liking to the concept at a very young age， and has reaped a lot of benefits from it.

In the early days， there were no places or areas specially allocated for the promotion and protection of the Hehe culture in China. Therefore， setting up a Hehe-themed cultural park to commemorate Hanshan and Shide， two legendary monks who once lived as recluses on Tiantai Mountain during the Tang Dynasty （618-907） and who have been regarded as symbols of the Hehe culture， became Shen’s quest.

In 2008， as Shen’s company， Zhejiang Mingfeng Industrial Co. Ltd.， was ready to move to a new site， the old factory buildings from the 1970s had to be renovated， which provided an opportunity for the establishment of a Hehe Cultural Park. In Shen’s mind， it is his bounden responsibility to pass on and promote the best of traditional Chinese culture， and building a Hehe cultural park was bound to bring a lot of benefits to the nation， the people and， more importantly， the future generations. It was much more rewarding than a commercial undertaking.

Together with his son， Shen began working in earnest. They organized a team for the planning and the construction work， and Shenggang， Shen’s son， was put in charge of collecting cultural relics and items， as well as historical documents and materials on the Hehe culture from home and abroad. During the preparations， sports facilities were put in place， which local residents could freely enjoy.

After several years of hard work， the Tiantai Hehe Museum， China’s first Hehe culture-themed museum， officially opened to the public on May 16， 2015， inside the newly launched Hehe Culture Park. More than 3，000 items and historical documents on the Hehe culture were collected， protected and exhibited at the museum. At the same time， the Global Database on Hehe History also began to take shape. Since then， the Tiantai Hehe Museum has become an important window and base for the dissemination of the Hehe culture. So far， the museum has received more than 500，000 visitors， including many prominent Chinese and international experts and scholars.

At present， the Hehe Culture Park serves as an education base not only for the Party School of the CPC Zhejiang Provincial Committee and the Organization Department of the CPC Taizhou Municipal Committee， but also a Hehe culture research base for Renmin University of China. The park has carried out international exchanges on the Hehe culture with the United States， Japan， Korea， Canada and other countries， and helped establish the Hehe Culture Research Association in Canada and the Hehe Culture International Center in Tokyo， Japan， playing a great role in promoting the overseas dissemination of the Hehe culture.

Since then， a hall showcasing marriage customs and a “one rattan” gallery have also been set up. Born in the late Ming （1368-1644） and the early Qing （1616-1911） period， “one rattan” is a unique traditional wooden craftsmanship technique in Tiantai. Using wood strips of different lengths that are put together with mortise and tenon joints， the craftsmen then loop and twist the strips into different patterns without beginning or end， a symbol for harmony. It is so named because the works are shaped like the rattan palm trees in the mountains of Tiantai county. With over 500 pieces of classic works from various periods， the gallery also contains a workshop for the cultivation of inheritors.

The smooth development of the Hehe Culture Park is a dream come true for Shen Zhongming. Each step forward is a result of his painstaking efforts and wisdom. In fact， Shen’s commitment to the protection， dissemination and promotion of the Hehe culture has earned him the reputation of the “Hehe Culture Ambassador” in the local community.
