Chess has always been regarded as the existence of the four great inventions in China. But people are afraid of being famous and strong. There are always some people who are jealous and want to attribute the origin of chess to their own country. This is the case in India, and even the theory of Indian origin is very popular in the world. It is said that chess originated in India, and the elephant in chess refers to the elephant in India.
If it must be said that it is an elephant, as early as the Shang Dynasty, there were records of a large number of elephants used to transport goods in China. India even applied for the World Heritage for six times, all of which ended in failure. Judging from the fact that they have been defeated many times, they are still playing dumb and pretending to understand. In the face of continuous application for World Heritage, foreign experts said helplessly that chess belongs to China!
Although we now advocate the exchange of world cultures for reference, it does not mean that we can directly steal or snatch patent rights, which is essentially a big problem. Some people may think it doesn't matter, but there are two points. China's excellent culture has been coveted many times recently, not only in India, but also in China's traditional festival Dragon Boat Festival and others. I can only say that Confucius is my ancestor, and sometimes he is jealous and cares nothing! Therefore, China has a long way to go to protect excellent culture!
