This article is about the thought on "Chinese philosophy" in Chinese modern cultural conservatism.In the emergence and the agitation of a variety of cultural trends of thought in the process of globalization, how to regard Chinese traditional culture, and how to recognize and develop the core of Chinese culture——Chinese philosophy, are very important issues. At any time, any philosophical works, as well as the development of Chinese philosophy will be of decisive influence on the thought on "Chinese philosophy". "Chinese philosophy" is, by definition, the observation of "Chinese philosophy". In this paper, the "Chinese philosophy", referring to the overall view of "Chinese philosophy", includes the analysis and understanding on the definition, characteristic, content, the advantages and limitations, and the current situation and future of"Chinese philosophy".In the history of modern Chinese Thought, the study on Chinese philosophy is no more than cultural conservatism. Therefore, a study of the thought on"Chinese philosophy"in near modern Chinese cultural conservatism is very necessary. Furthermore, it is of great value for us to analyse and grasp the process of development of "Chinese philosophy", and to develop and reconstruct"Chinese philosophy"in the future.In this paper, the period studied is mainly the first half of the 20th century. Despite the modern culture conservative trend of thought began in the mid-and late 19th century, the concept "philosophy" came to China at the turn of 19th and 20th century, so it is at that time that Chinese intellectuals have the self-consciousness of "Chinese philosophy".This article altogether includes six parts. In the Preface, the thought on "Chinese philosophy" is defined and analyzed. In chapter 1, through the historical inspection on the Chinese modern cultural conservatism, the author summarizes the essence and characteristic of Chinese modern cultural conservatism. In chapter 2, in the background of the history of modern conservatism, the author analyzes and summarizes the thought on"Chinese philosophy"in four periods including the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of china, May 4th Movement, War of Resistance against Japan, the winning of Anti-Japanese War to the founding of New China, and also points out that the formation of the thought on"Chinese philosophy"is closely linked to the spirit of the times. In chapter 3, basing on analyzing the contents of the second chapter, the author tries to find the logical skeleton of the development of the thought on"Chinese philosophy". It is pointed out that the cultural conservatives'recognition of"Chinese philosophy"is from emotional to the rational, from inferiority to self-confidence, from a closed mind to an open mind in the development of the thought on"Chinese philosophy", and at the same time, their construction on the theory of Chinese philosophy has undergone the process of Rearranging the National Heritage - Cultural reconcile - theoretical innovation, and that cultural conservatives'construction on the theory of Chinese philosophy are closely linked to their attitude to Chinese philosophy. In chapter 4, the author compares the thought on"Chinese philosophy"of Chinese cultural conservatism with the thought on"Chinese philosophy"of other contemporary cultural trends of thought in order to highlight the characteristic and value of cultural conservative's thought on"Chinese philosophy". Compared with the thought on"Chinese philosophy"of the radical trend of Westernization, it is more confident, more rational, more comprehensive and more profound. Compared with the Marxists'thought on"Chinese philosophy", it provides some important resources and a theory model to some extent for the later theory of Marxism "the past servers the present and foreign things serve China, critical inheritance, General innovation ". In Chapter 5, on analyzing the values and short-comings of the thought on"Chinese philosophy"of Chinese modern conservatism, the author comments on its significance to the development of Chinese philosophy, and on this basis, the author makes prospect of the future development of Chinese philosophy.This article attempts to show that the thought on"Chinese philosophy"of modern cultural conservatism plays an important role in Chinese philosophy's transforming from ancient period to modern times as well as the developing of Chinese modern philosophy. It contains the objective, rational, comprehensive ideas on traditional Chinese philosophy, the relationship between Chinese philosophy and Western philosophy, the relationship between Chinese philosophy and philosophy. On the basis of these ideas, the future development of Chinese philosophy is conceived. It can be elicited that the modern cultural conservative is not "conservative" or even backward. Most of them ever studied abroad in their early years, so they have profound knowledge on Chinese traditional philosophy and culture, and academic background of Western philosophy and culture .Therefore, it is in an more open academic visual field that the modern conservatives understand and develop Chinese philosophy, and in the process, they firmly grasp the two points: one is to base on Chinese philosophy and culture, the other is to maintain the inherent continuity of the development of Chinese philosophy and Chinese culture. The majority of cultural conservatives regard the study of Chinese philosophy and culture as the academic mission of their lifetime or even the pursuit of life, but in different historical periods their specific performance is different, which is mainly linked to the spirit of the times they live in. Furthermore, in the modern history of the development of Chinese philosophy, the formation and development of the thought on"Chinese philosophy"not only is closely contact with the spirit of the times, but also has its own skeleton. In addition, Chinese philosophy and Chinese culture are intertwined, and Chinese philosophy is the core of Chinese culture and plays a guiding role in the development of Chinese culture.At present, there are mainly Marxist philosophy, Chinese traditional philosophy, and Western Philosophy in the field of philosophy in china. In today's multicultural background, how to set up a suitable developing mode of Chinese philosophy , how to make Chinese philosophy's development maintain its own characteristics as well as adapt to the developing trend of the times , and how to promote the construction and development of contemporary Chinese philosophy, are the questions that we must answer. The author thinks that in the current conditions and environment, the theory "On the General Innovate" which was put forward by Mr. Zhang Dainian and was perfected by Mr. Fang Keli will become the main development model of the future Chinese philosophy, but there is also a need to do further exploration on the practical operation of this development mode.
