The person in charge of china confucius foundation said on September 24th that releasing the Confucius-based image to the world only provides a unified carrier for cultural communication, not a commercial act.

In an interview with Xinhua News Agency, Zhang Shuhua, Secretary-General of china confucius foundation, said that the greatness of Confucius lies in his Confucianism and its profound thoughts, but what Confucius looks like is not the most important thing. The main purpose of publishing the standard image of Confucius is to give the world a more consistent impression of Confucius, which is conducive to spreading his thoughts and theories.
