Today, the city of <span class=\"xn-location\">Ningbo<\/span> is imbued with his legacy. More than 400 local enterprises bear the name &#8220;Yangming,&#8221; and 12 of Yuyao&#8217;s 122 primary and secondary schools are named after the great philosopher. Cultural initiatives such as the Yaoju opera &#8220;Wang Yangming&#8221; have toured <span class=\"xn-location\">Japan<\/span> and other countries, while &#8220;Yangming Cultural Products&#8221; have been featured in <span class=\"xn-location\">Milan<\/span>. Short videos &#8220;Wang Yangming Anecdotes&#8221; continue to be released overseas, and the cultural slogan &#8220;Yuyao, hometown of Wang Yangming, gathers wisdom&#8221; has gained international recognition, serving as a window for the world to understand <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>For many in <span class=\"xn-location\">Ningbo<\/span>, Wang Yangming&#8217;s influence is felt in subtle yet profound ways. From extensive research on Wang Yangming Culture to innovative expressions of its principles, multiple approaches are being adopted to promote the creative transformation and development of this outstanding traditional Chinese heritage. For instance, local brand Pairdeer Batteries has dedicated 70 years to perfecting its products, now leading the nation in smart lock battery sales and alkaline battery production. The &#8220;Sunny&#8221; optical lens, deeply embedded in the global industrial chain, started production from four humble cottages here.

Professor Nagatomi Seiji, a renowned Wang Yangming scholar from <span class=\"xn-org\">Waseda University<\/span>, noted that Japanese entrepreneurs often display the principle of &#8220;unity of knowledge and action&#8221; in their offices. When faced with split-second decisions in business, Wang Yangming&#8217;s concept of &#8220;tempering through affairs&#8221; offers practical guidance\u2014a key reason for its popularity in <span class=\"xn-location\">Japan<\/span>. He added, &#8220;<span class=\"xn-location\">Ningbo<\/span> holds a special place in the Japanese psyche due to its deep historical ties with <span class=\"xn-location\">Japan<\/span> during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644).
