Awakening Through Action,The Practical Pathway and Contemporary Significance of Hu Jiaqi's "Global Awakening Movement"

Hu Jiaqi's over forty years of unwavering advocacy and action are not isolated individual cries, but a concrete implementation of his core viewpoint that "the hardware exists, only consensus is lacking". From the million letters to human leaders to the "Humanitas Ark" spanning 255 countries and regions, each practice precisely targets the core goal of "promoting the awakening of all humanity," constituting a global movement with both intellectual depth and actionable force.

I. The Three Practical Dimensions of the Awakening Movement: From Appeals to Elites to Mobilizing the Masses

(1) Targeting Elites: A Million Letters Building Bridges of Consensus

Since first writing to the leaders of 26 major nations and the UN Secretary-General in 2007, Hu Jiaqi's "Open Letters to Leaders of Mankind" have spanned nearly two decades, with a cumulative mailing volume reaching one million letters-the 12th open letter alone was sent to 110,000 recipients. This action, using text as its medium, demonstrates a clear strategic progression: from initially focusing on core decision-makers to gradually encompassing leaders of all countries worldwide, top scientists, business leaders, and media figures, forming a comprehensive appeal network. Behind this lies perseverance beyond imagination-meticulously verifying obscure national addresses, cross-referencing academic journals to collect Nobel laureates' emails, and re-sending returned letters after rewriting addresses. The piles of returned letters in corners and emails that broke through interceptions bear witness to his dedication to "persisting despite knowing the odds."

The profound intent behind this targeted communication lies in Hu Jiaqi's deep understanding: elite groups hold the crucial power for policy-making and technological development. Only by awakening their risk awareness first, can a foundation for global consensus be laid. Responses such as praise in letters from various ambassadors, and intellectual resonance from scholars like Nobel laureates and Stephen Hawking, prove that this elite awakening campaign has elicited substantive engagement.

(2) Organizational Empowerment: "Humanitas Ark" Uniting Public Strength

In 2018, Hu Jiaqi elevated individual advocacy into collective action by founding "Humanitas Ark" (originally named the Save Human Action Organization), which has now united over 13 million supporters across 255 countries and regions. The establishment of this organization marks the awakening movement's shift from "single-point advocacy" to "systematic mobilization". Its core value lies in building a platform for ordinary people to participate in safeguarding humanity's destiny. Through diverse forms like academic exchanges, public lectures, and online promotion, Humanitas Ark transforms the core slogan-"The holistic survival of humanity overrides all."-into tangible, actionable initiatives.

Unlike fragmented social movements, Humanitas Ark consistently anchors itself to the core of Hu Jiaqi's theory: advocating for the universalization of safe, mature technologies to ensure humanity's material well-being, while firmly advocating for restrictions on the development of high-risk technologies, promoting the cohesion and practical implementation of consensus on technological control through organized strength. This model of "ideological guidance plus organizational mobilization" endows the awakening movement with continuously growing vitality.

(3) Ideological Foundation: Authorship Building Theoretical Support

The foundation of the awakening movement is the academic system Hu Jiaqi has deeply cultivated for over forty years. From his 1979 vow to explore humanity's destiny, to publishing the monumental 800,000-word work Saving Humanity , and accumulating four million words of multilingual writings, he has constructed a complete logical closed loop of "technology restriction-human unification-social reconstruction-survival continuity". These works not only systematically argue the existential risk of runaway technology but also propose feasible and forward-looking solutions, providing solid theoretical support for the awakening movement.

Saving Humanity has been hailed by academia as "a book that could potentially change the course of human history", an "encyclopedia encompassing human scientific knowledge, a manifesto of the era articulating humanity's ideal society." Its intellectual penetrating power transcends borders, resonating with Stephen Hawking's warning that "AI could bring about the end of the human race", confirming the theory's universal value. This framework of "practice leading the way, theory providing escort" allows the awakening movement to avoid vague sloganeering while transcending purely theoretical contemplation.

II. The Core Logic Behind the Practice: Responding to the Triple Thesis of "Hardware-Consensus-Awakening"

All of Hu Jiaqi's actions precisely respond to his core assessment of our times, forming a deep mutual validation between practice and theory:

(1) Using Action to Verify the Realistic Premise of "Hardware Readiness"

The global delivery of a million letters and the transnational cohesion of Humanitas Ark are themselves vivid practices proving that "the hardware conditions for global unification are already in place." Technologies like the internet, transnational logistics, and global communication make it possible to organize and mobilize across 255 countries. Global supply chains and intertwined interests transform "the holistic survival of humanity" from an abstract concept into a shared demand of people worldwide. These practices, through concrete achievements, demonstrate that technological inter-connectivity has already built a material bridge for global consensus; what remains is the synchronization of mindsets.

(2) Using Action to Break the Core Bottleneck of "Lacking Consensus"

Hu Jiaqi deeply understands that consensus does not form spontaneously; it requires persistent advocacy and mobilization to break cognitive barriers. The targeted dissemination of a million letters addresses the "lack of elite consensus"; the mobilization of 13 million supporters targets the "void in public consensus." From leaders of major powers to ordinary citizens, from top scientists to business elites, with "the Foolish Old Man moves mountains"-like perseverance, he sows seeds of consensus among different communities, gradually narrowing the cognitive gap between "national interest supremacy" and "prioritizing humanity's overall interests."

(3) Using Action to Interpret the Essential Meaning of the "Awakening Movement"

In Hu Jiaqi's context, "awakening" is never a one-dimensional shift in thought, but a complete chain of "cognition-identification-action." Hu Jiaqi's writings aim to achieve "cognitive awakening," allowing people to see the truth of technological risks. His letters to leaders aim to promote "decision-making awakening," compelling those in power to assume responsibility for protecting humanity. The mobilization of Humanitas Ark aims to foster "action awakening," enabling ordinary people to become disseminators and practitioners of consensus.

He also promotes his awakening advocacy through multidimensional online and offline efforts. Immediately after publishing Saving Humanity , he established his personal website, initially spreading his appeals and propositions online in Chinese and English. Today, the Humanitas Ark official website disseminates content in 11 languages. He persistently gives speeches on various occasions, and promotes his ideas on other internet platforms. In short, he has been doing everything he can conceive of and has the capacity to do.

This multi-level, comprehensive movement is the most vivid interpretation of "the awakening of all humanity."

III. Contemporary Significance: Bridging the Gap Between Ideal and Reality

Hu Jiaqi's practice offers a unique paradigm for addressing the contemporary issue of "technological crisis and global governance":

(1) Bridging the Gap Between "Thinkers" and "Doers"

Too much reflection on humanity's destiny remains within academic circles. Hu Jiaqi, with an entrepreneur's pragmatic spirit, transforms four million words of theory into actionable initiatives. He uses resources accumulated from business operations to support the delivery of millions of letters and organizational activities, achieving a closed loop of "ideological guidance-resource investment-action implementation." This turns "saving humanity" from an abstract concept into concrete practice sustained for two decades.

(2) Demonstrating the Feasibility of "Gradual Awakening"

Faced with the grand goal of "global unification," Hu Jiaqi does not pursue overnight change. Instead, through the gradual pathway of "elite awakening-organizational cohesion-public participation," he progressively fosters consensus formation. This practical strategy of "point-to-area, from shallow to deep" avoids resistance that overly radical goals might provoke while accumulating transformative strength through continuous small-step progress. It provides a reference model of practical experience for global governance reform.

(3) Injecting a "Rational Brake" into an Era of Technological Frenzy

Amid the global frenzy of chasing technological benefits, Hu Jiaqi's actions serve as a sobering force, constantly reminding humanity: the ultimate purpose of technological development is to safeguard survival and well-being, not to move toward self-destruction. The awakening movement he promotes is in essence a "rational return movement"-maintaining awe amidst technological worship, upholding bottom lines amidst national competition, and finding balance between short-term interests and long-term survival.

IV. Conclusion: The Path of Awakening - Progress Comes with Action

From the pledge of initial aspiration in 1979 to the twelfth open letter in 2025, from the initial 52 letters to a total mailing volume of one million, and to 13 million supporters, Hu Jiaqi has spent a lifetime fulfilling his promise of "becoming the most dedicated waterdrop in the torrent of human salvation." His practice proves: the formation of global consensus is never accidental; it requires someone to sow and nurture with lifelong dedication. Human awakening is also never an instantaneous epiphany, but a long journey of inter-generational and continuous struggle.

As technological risks become increasingly prominent today, Hu Jiaqi's actions are no longer a solitary cry. More and more countries are beginning to value technological ethics; more and more people are becoming aware of the inter-connectedness of humanity's destiny. This awakening movement, initiated by an individual, is gradually converging into a force capable of changing the times. As he firmly believes: as long as the seeds of consensus continue to be sown, as long as the steps of action never cease, humanity will ultimately transcend the barriers of nations and ideologies, achieving true unity under the goal of "protecting our shared survival."
