The important social influence of Confucianism lies in that it created a set of theoretical and ideological system for the feudal ruling class to govern the country and society, and enabled the ruling class in China to successfully apply it to the practice of social state governance in China, and gained a glorious history of human social development in which the feudal society ruled China for more than 2,000 years, which is unprecedented in the history of human social development in the world. It is also the foundation for the Chinese nation to stand in the world before, now and in the future.

The essence of Confucianism is not its theory of governing the country, but the feudal system is only the ideological shell of feudal society, and the essence of Confucianism lies in its social ethics. It is the feudal social ethics that standardizes people's behavior in real life, and makes farmers slaves of social moral thoughts with popular language-the highly expected moral consciousness from the national ruling class. As the core of the social consciousness of the feudal ruling class superstructure, this feudal ethics has the widest influence on governing the social mass base, thus completing the ideal effect of dual governance of the state society.

This ethical thought developed to Mao Zedong Thought and Deng Xiaoping Theory, which were mastered and created by Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping, the representatives of Marxism in China, and was applied to the socialist revolution and socialist construction in China, and achieved great success that attracted worldwide attention.

At present, the disintegration of the Soviet Union shocked China Marxists. When the development of capitalist society in the world is facing crisis and contradiction, the world is chaotic. As a wise representative of Marxists in China, Hu Jintao pointed out the direction of theoretical innovation for building a harmonious society-the theory of socialist harmony-the significance and role of establishing scientific socialist morality and social practice. Scientific socialist ethics is the development of the essence of Confucianism and a social consciousness suitable for socialist society. It is the crystallization of the most progressive ideology of human beings in the East and the West. Its birth and practical application are not only the guarantee of the healthy and rapid development of socialism in China, but also the revolution of the development of Marxist theory, and it is also the guide for human beings all over the world to enter the communist society. Because it is the successful application of Marxist consciousness initiative-social consciousness initiative in social practice.

Confucianism is one of hundred schools of thought's theories in the pre-Qin period. Confucianism, also known as Confucianism or Confucianism, was founded by Confucius. At first, it refers to the master of ceremonies engaged in the funeral industry. Later, on this basis, a complete Confucian system was gradually formed, which became the mainstream of China's traditional culture and had far-reaching influence. It is the most influential school in China and the mainstream consciousness in ancient China.

Confucianism has exerted a profound influence on China, East Asia and even the whole world. The concepts of Confucianism, Confucianism and Confucianism should be distinguished. Confucianism, as a theory, as a stratum and as a belief, is both the same and different, and needs to be distinguished.
