\u201cHuman civilization is a great river civilization. From a worldwide perspective, the four ancient civilizations are found in the middle and lower reaches of the great river. The Yangtze River basin is the birthplace of Chinese civilization. The Yuanmou ape man fossil in Yunnan Province in the early Paleolithic period, tracing back to 1.7 million years ago, is the earliest human fossil found in China and belongs to the “ape man” stage that is a strong proof of the long history of human activities in the Yangtze River basin. A series of prehistoric cultures, such as Baodun, Daxi, Qujialing, Shijiahe, Hemudu and Liangzhu Culture, are born in the Yangtze River basin<\/em>.”

“Today, the Yangtze River basin accounts for about 19% of the country’s area, raises about 33% of the country’s population, produces 32.5% of food, and concentrates about 36% of GDP, that is, one third of the GDP. Therefore, the Yangtze River is the mother river of the Chinese nation and an important support for the development of the Chinese nation,<\/em>\u201d Prof. Jiang told audiences a story about the Yangtze River on the first day.
