Shi Huangdi actually opposed Confucianism and sent much of its literature and scholarship (both written and people) to be burned. It is only by luck that Confucianism survived to become the official philosophy of the Han Dynasty and therefore survival.
Shi Huangdi endorsed Legalism, purveyed by Li Si, which was a philosophy of crime and punishment. He believed that the Chinese People owed him their authority and if they did not give it to him, they were no longer useful subjects.

No, Shi Huangdi, the first emperor of China, actually suppressed Confucianism and other philosophical schools during his rule. He promoted Legalism, which emphasized strict laws and punishments as a means of maintaining social order. His aim was to consolidate his power and control over the population, rather than promoting respect and harmony among individuals.
