BCP Education & Psychology ERHSS 2023 Volume 9 (2023) 87 Young People's Sang Culture Providing New Ideas for the Development of Education in Contemporary China Yuexian Yuan * School of European Studies, Beijing International Studies University, Beijing, China *Corresponding author: 2020220441@stu.bisu.edu.cn Abstract. In recent years, after China has made significant achievements in the economic and political fields, it has started to strengthen the role of "self-confidence" in the cultural field. At the social level, the "Four Confidences" have been proposed, and in the field of education, the "New Youth of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics" are required to be cultivated. Under the initiative and construction of this sunny and positive energy, more and more subcultural youth groups have emerged. In this paper, the author has observed and summarized many papers and participated in many discussions with subcultural groups, and explored and summarized the various manifestations of contemporary subculture - Sang culture. This "poor quality" culture is partly a reflection of the contemporary youth's sense of resistance, but it is not a fundamental solution to the plight of contemporary youth. Therefore, the author proposes feasible measures at four levels: government, school, media, and individual, which are expected to have a positive impact in the future. Keywords: China; Sang culture; Youth. 1. Introduction Since the reform and opening up in 1978, China has maintained a GDP growth rate of 10 percent for more than 30 consecutive years, and the economy and society are developing at an unprecedented rate [1]. The "Sang Culture" has emerged under these social conditions, especially under the influence of the epidemic since the end of 2020. The "culture of mourning" has seen an unprecedented spurt of development [2]. Contrary to the traditional culture's value of "positive entry into the world," the negative outlook on life presented by the "Sang Culture" reflects the real psychological state and survival of youth groups in the face of complex and diverse social changes, which deserves continuous observation and in-depth exploration. By studying the "Sang Culture", people can take off their glasses and look at the "Sang Culture " and even the "subculture", reflect the humanistic care for the youth of today in the era of epidemic, and increase the temperature and understanding of the society. The author deeply analyzes the psychological situation of the contemporary youth, so as to provide effective ways to help the contemporary youth face their difficulties from the perspectives of the government, society and individuals. What’s more, any culture has a certain economic value and the emergence of any kind of culture has its own deep-seated reasons. In the new era and new culture, people should also have a keen business sense to provide new economic growth points when the economy is weak after the epidemic. By solving the above two problems, people can also increase the credibility and administrative effectiveness of the Government, enhance the stickiness between the people and the government, and truly be confident in the people and the Government. 2. Sang Culture in Youth There are roughly four ways in which the " Sang Culture " manifests itself in youth groups. 2.1 Buddhist The term "Buddhist" expresses a kind of life attitude of no desire, no sadness, no joy, and the pursuit of inner peace. The "Buddhist youth" treat their relationships without force or initiative. They treat their studies and work with the attitude that it doesn't matter as long as it's not too bad. When they order take-out or buy something, they think it doesn't matter about the taste or quality, don't rush the order, and don't give bad reviews. The "Buddhist" first appeared in Japan in 2014. For example,
