Coffee and tea can be regarded as one of the representatives of Chinese and Western cultures. A mysterious leaf reflects the "plant character" of Easterners, while the endosperm that gives birth to life represents the "animal character" of Westerners. During the New Culture Movement, Li Dazhao wrote the article "differences between Chinese and Western cultures", which mentioned that "the East is quiet, the West takes the initiative." "whether it is movement and stillness, plants or animals, both are tangible spiritual food for human beings, and they are gifts from heaven and earth. For the ancients, drinking tea was a process of meditation, emphasizing the unity of body and mind.

By contrast, since coffee was actually brought out of the Arab world by the Dutch from the Yemeni port of Moka, coffee has become one of the spiritual supports of the Western colonial era, a "colonial" drink. The prosperity of coffee and the colonial era in Europe, Marx mentioned in Das Kapital that Westerners conquered the world with coffee. Since the 18th century, Western colonists have committed all kinds of sins by using coffee, from the West Indies to the conversion of coffee due to the falling price of sugar futures to the felling of rainforest coffee in Brazil, and after Britain issued a decree to eliminate slavery, the Brazilian government responded by secretly selling a large number of slaves for coffee cultivation. Black slaves lived for about eight years, and coffee ranchers even ignored their lives and refused to see a doctor when they got sick. The coffee land after deforestation is not protected, and once the land is found to be malnourished, new coffee land will be developed. As a result, Brazil, which is described as a "paradise on earth" by western literati, has become a living purgatory.

After the Boston tea event, it became the national drink in the United States. After that, the "three waves of coffee" deserved to become the second largest trading economy in the world, feeding at least 200 million people on the planet and becoming one of the most popular drinks on the planet. Coffee and tea taste all pay attention to the variety, origin, water quality, stir-frying and roasting methods, and even brewing water and utensils, and so on. China's tea is self-sufficient, while European and American coffee, apart from Hawaii, basically depends on imports and so on. Each element can see the difference between Chinese and Western cultures.

Coffee takes root and sprouts in the land suitable for growth and benefits the local people, like Sun Yat-sen and Washington, unlike Hitler, Yuan Shikai and Napoleon, both of whom are addicted to coffee but do not understand its meaning.

Just like the current Chinese coffee industry, it blindly worships the western coffee system and disdains the eating habit genes inherited by Chinese consumers for hundreds of thousands of years. After knowing something about science, they began to believe in science, which is more terrifying than superstition and cults! Having little knowledge of European colonization and American history, he dared to define 1.7 million-year-old Chinese taste buds with "taste wheels" and "smell bottles" based on European and American taste habits and sensory experience of food.

Western coffee culture has only a few hundred years, especially the understanding of coffee in the United States, the leader of modern coffee, only intercepts the modernization of coffee, understands coffee from a practical point of view, develops the scientific knowledge of coffee, and makes it more civilized. Because the history of the United States is very short, it pays more attention to the extensiveness of historical and cultural accumulation. The core of colonial aggression in the cultural essence of American civilization cannot be changed, so coffee culture is implanted into the gene of colonial aggression. This is why SCA and CQI came to China under the guise of "science is supreme" and "man will prevail over nature." it precisely caters to some people in the domestic coffee industry who have the servile idea of "worshipping foreigners and fawning on foreigners."
