The Golden Kite the Silver Wind was written during the Cold War era, where Russia and the United States competed for bragging rights. We went to the moon in 1969 to show Russia how much better we are than them. Bradbury uses the same concept, just with China to convey how Cold Wars are stupid.
It is also trying to tell you that we should work together instead of fighting . because with our the wind the kite is nothing.
The theme of the Golden Kite, the Silver Wind- Live for peace Not war! I think this story was very strange. But that is just my opinion. If you thought the same, then you should also read "Checkouts" by Cynthia Rylant cause it is just as bad as this one!
The Golden Kite, the Silver Wind is an allegory about the Cold War until 1953, when the story was written. The walls represent our and the U.S.S.R. Nuclear stockpile. The Mandarins represent President Truman And Joseph Stalin.

"The Golden Kite, The Silver Wind" is a short story by Ray Bradbury that explores themes of conflict, change, and the consequences of decisions. It can be connected to the idea of competing priorities and the cost of progress. The story illustrates how pursuit of perfection and stubbornness can lead to destruction and division.
"The Scarlet Ibis" by James Hurst can be classified as an allegory. It uses the story of a scarlet ibis bird to symbolize the fragility of life and the consequences of pride. "The Golden Kite, The Silver Wind" by Ray Bradbury, on the other hand, has elements of symbolism and foreshadowing, but it is more focused on the themes of power struggles and conflict between two warring cities.
The tone in the story is the Ray Bradbury is trying to make the reader feel as if the Cold War is pointless and that it accomplishes nothing. Hope my answer helped you! :)
The Mandarins daughter gives advice behind a screen, because in Ancient China it was inappropriate to give advice if you were a female.
The mandarin's daughter advises him from behind a screen in "The Golden Kite, The Silver Wind" because she is purdah-bound and forbidden from showing her face to any man other than her husband. This cultural practice restricts her interactions with men, so advising her father from behind a screen allows her to participate while adhering to this tradition.
