Editor's Note: Across time and borders, civilizations have grown not by standing still, but by reaching out, sharing ideas, embracing difference, and seeking common ground. In today's rapidly changing world, cultural innovation isn't just about creativity. It's about connection, memory, meaning, and rediscovering what it means to be human, together. In the roundtable dialogue "Cultural Innovation and Common Values of Humanity," CMG's Wang Guan asks thought leaders and decision makers how cultural innovation help us build a shared future rooted in timeless human values. From publishing and storytelling to immersive cinema and global policy, how can publishing evolve from transmitting content to transmitting values, thus creating a spiritual bridge across civilizations? What universal truths emerge from cross-cultural writing, and how can we articulate a common human language amid global narrative competition? Can film and television, as powerful civilizational languages, rebuild spaces for global consensus? And how is China's Global Civilization Initiative helping shape a transnational system of shared human values?
