History is like a tide, and the avenue is like a stone.
The great Communist Party of China ushered in its 103rd anniversary. On June 27, when presiding over the 15th collective study of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, General Secretary Xi Jinping, on behalf of the Party Central Committee, extended holiday greetings to the majority of Communist Party members across the country!
For more than 100 years, generation after generation of Chinese communists have shouldered the historical responsibility of building a strong country and rejuvenating the nation, united and led all the Chinese people to unswervingly and courageously move forward, and achieved brilliant achievements that have attracted worldwide attention and shined in the annals of history, and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation has entered an irreversible historical process.
The relay of history is one baton after another, and the cause of the party and the country is one journey after another. At that time, the pointer of light pointed to the golden autumn and October of 2022, when the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation reached a critical juncture, and the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China was successfully held. On October 16, the Great Hall of the People in Beijing, which has witnessed countless major historical moments, once again stirred up the strong voice of the times, and General Secretary Xi Jinping solemnly announced-
"From now on, the central task of the Communist Party of China is to unite and lead the people of all ethnic groups across the country to build a great modern socialist country in an all-round way, realize the second centenary goal, and comprehensively promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese-style modernization."
A new starting point, a new journey, and a new departure. The landmark 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) drew a grand blueprint for comprehensively promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese-style modernization, sounded the clarion call of the times for building a modern socialist country in an all-round way, and issued a great call for unity and struggle for the construction of a strong country and national rejuvenation. "The Mission and Tasks of the Communist Party of China in the New Era and New Journey" is part of the report made by General Secretary Xi Jinping at the conference. Based on the historical position of the cause of the Party and the country, the General Secretary clearly put forward the mission and tasks of the Party in the new era and new journey, made strategic arrangements for building a modern socialist country in an all-round way, and profoundly expounded the Chinese characteristics, essential requirements and major principles of Chinese-style modernization.
Comprehensively promoting the construction of a strong country and national rejuvenation with Chinese-style modernization is the banner that gathers the wisdom and strength of the whole party and the people of the whole country on the new journey, and it is also bound to be the theme of further deepening reform in an all-round way. From July 15 to 18, our party will convene the Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee, focusing on the issue of further deepening reform in an all-round way and promoting Chinese-style modernization. On the occasion of celebrating the 103rd anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, revisiting the mission and tasks of the Communist Party of China in the new era and new journey as stated in the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, in-depth study and implementation of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, and accurately understanding and grasping the highest top-level design of the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China for promoting Chinese-style modernization, will further inspire the whole party and the people of the whole country to unite and struggle, and continuously push forward the great cause of building a strong country and national rejuvenation with a more firm, self-confident and promising mental state.
The Party has led the people to make great achievements in long-term exploration and practice
"Chinese-style modernization is a major achievement achieved by the people of all ethnic groups across the country under the leadership of our party in long-term exploration and practice through untold hardships and at great cost."
At 14:07 on June 25, 2024, the Chang'e-6 returner landed safely in the predetermined area of the Siziwang Banner in Inner Mongolia with lunar samples from the far side of the moon. On behalf of the CPC Central Committee, the State Council and the Central Military Commission, General Secretary Xi Jinping sent a message to congratulate the lunar exploration project Chang'e-6 on its complete success. In his congratulatory message, the general secretary pointed out that Chang'e-6 achieved the return of samples from the far side of the moon for the first time in human history, which is another landmark achievement made by the mainland in building a space power and a science and technology power.

On February 7, 2023, the seminar for new members and alternate members of the Central Committee and major leading cadres at the provincial and ministerial levels to study and implement Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era and the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China opened. At the opening ceremony, General Secretary Xi Jinping gave a lecture on the "first lesson" of the year on "how to understand and promote Chinese-style modernization" for the "key minority". Looking back at the arduous exploration, glorious course and historical contributions made by the party in uniting and leading the people to promote modernization, the general secretary's words are sonorous: "We must cherish it, always adhere to it, and constantly expand and deepen." ”
Realizing modernization is the dream that the Chinese people have been diligently pursuing since modern times. However, from the Westernization Movement's "mastering the skills of the people to control the country", to the "reform and strengthening the country" of the Wuxu Reform, to the "bourgeois republic" and "revitalization of industry" programs of the Xinhai Revolution, the painstaking search of many people with lofty ideals has ended in failure. The heavy task of exploring China's path to modernization has historically fallen on the Communist Party of China.
A hundred years of trials and hardships, a hundred years of strong songs. Since its birth, the Communist Party of China (CPC) has consciously shouldered the historic mission of building a modern and powerful country and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. During the period of the New Democratic Revolution, the Party united and led the people to overthrow the three mountains, establish the People's Republic of China in which the people are the masters of the country, achieve national independence and the people's liberation, and create fundamental social conditions for modernization. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the party united and led the people to carry out the socialist revolution, established the basic socialist system, brought about the most extensive and profound social transformation in the history of the Chinese nation, established an independent and relatively complete industrial system and national economic system, and achieved original theoretical achievements and great achievements in socialist revolution and construction, laid a fundamental political prerequisite for modernization, and provided valuable experience, theoretical preparation, and material foundation. In the new period of reform, opening up, and socialist modernization, the party made the historic decision to shift the focus of the work of the party and the state to economic construction and to carry out reform and opening up, thus starting a new long march of Chinese-style modernization, realizing the historic leap in people's living standards from insufficient food and clothing to overall well-off and toward all-round well-off, and providing a system full of new vitality and material conditions for rapid development for Chinese-style modernization.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered The CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core has scientifically summed up the practical experience of the mainland's socialist modernization, profoundly grasped the essential laws of modernization, continuously achieved innovative breakthroughs in theory and practice, and successfully promoted and expanded Chinese-style modernization. The Party has continuously deepened its understanding and created Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, which has achieved a new leap forward in the Sinicization of Marxism and the modernization of Marxism, providing a fundamental basis for Chinese-style modernization. General Secretary Xi Jinping has made a series of important expositions on Chinese-style modernization, further deepened the understanding of the connotation and essence of Chinese-style modernization, summarized the Chinese characteristics, essential requirements and major principles of Chinese-style modernization, and initially constructed a theoretical system of Chinese-style modernization, making Chinese-style modernization clearer, more scientific, and more feasible. In terms of strategy, we have made a "two-step" strategic arrangement for building the mainland into a great modern socialist country by the middle of this century, clarified the overall layout of the "five-in-one" and the "four comprehensive" strategic layout, and implemented a series of major strategies in depth, thus providing solid strategic support for Chinese-style modernization. In particular, it has eliminated absolute poverty, built a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way, achieved the first centenary goal, and provided a more perfect institutional guarantee, a more solid material foundation, and a more active spiritual force for Chinese-style modernization.
Seeking up and down, the vicissitudes of the right path. Through the unremitting efforts of several generations, the Party has led the people to successfully embark on the path of Chinese-style modernization. Once a country that was poor and white, and even had to import kerosene, matches, and iron nails, it has now developed into the world's second largest economy, the world's largest manufacturing country, and the main driving force for world economic growth.
After a magnificent century and an extraordinary 10 years of struggle in the new era, the development of the mainland stands at a new and higher historical starting point and embarks on a new journey of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way. In the important article "The Mission and Tasks of the Communist Party of China in the New Era and New Journey", General Secretary Xi Jinping profoundly explained the Chinese characteristics and essential requirements of Chinese-style modernization, and clearly outlined the timetable and roadmap for building a modern socialist country in an all-round way.
-- On the Chinese characteristics of Chinese-style modernization. The general secretary stressed that "Chinese-style modernization is socialist modernization under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, which has the common characteristics of the modernization of all countries and Chinese characteristics based on its own national conditions", and made profound explanations from five aspects: "modernization with a huge population", "modernization with common prosperity for all people", "modernization with harmonious coexistence between material civilization and spiritual civilization", "modernization with harmonious coexistence between man and nature", and "modernization with the path of peaceful development".
-- On the essential requirements of Chinese-style modernization. The general secretary summarized from nine aspects, including leadership and banner road, emphasizing that the essential requirements of Chinese-style modernization are: "Adhere to the leadership of the Communist Party of China, adhere to socialism with Chinese characteristics, achieve high-quality development, develop whole-process people's democracy, enrich the people's spiritual world, achieve common prosperity for all people, promote the harmonious coexistence of man and nature, promote the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind, and create a new form of human civilization." ”
-- On the goals and tasks of building China into a great modern socialist country in an all-round way. The general secretary stressed that the overall strategic arrangement for building a modern socialist country in an all-round way is to take two steps: from 2020 to 2035, socialist modernization will be basically realized; From 2035 to the middle of this century, we will build the mainland into a prosperous, strong, democratic, civilized, harmonious, and beautiful modern socialist country. On this basis, the General Secretary further made a macro outlook on the development goals for 2035 and the middle of this century, and clarified the main goals and tasks for the five years after the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.
Building a modern socialist country in an all-round way is a great and arduous undertaking, and it is also a pioneering undertaking that has no precedent. In the important article "The Mission and Tasks of the Communist Party of China in the New Era and New Journey", General Secretary Xi Jinping deeply analyzed the international and domestic trends, scientifically grasped the strategic opportunities, risks and challenges we faced, and clearly put forward five major principles that must be firmly grasped on the way forward: upholding and strengthening the party's overall leadership, adhering to the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics, adhering to the people-centered development philosophy, persisting in deepening reform and opening up, and persisting in carrying forward the spirit of struggle.
The party's leadership is in charge of the general and fundamental
"What are the prerequisites for China's modernization?"
In July 1933, Shi Liangcai, a patriotic newspaper man, published a special large issue to commemorate the anniversary of the publication of the "Application Monthly", which published a "Special Issue on China's Modernization" and extensively discussed the conditions and ways for China to achieve modernization. In this great ideological debate, many progressives have come to realize that the most fundamental condition for realizing modernization is to have a strong political foundation, and only under the leadership of a strong political party can China truly embark on the road of modernization.
"Only we, the Chinese Communists, have achieved it." On October 13, 2020, at the Shantou Port Opening Cultural Exhibition Hall in Guangdong, General Secretary Xi Jinping stopped and sighed in the face of the grand planning map of Mr. Sun Yat-sen's "National Founding Strategy" more than 100 years ago. A series of unattainable dreams in the plan have long since become a reality under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, and today's China is far more modern than Sun Yat-sen originally envisioned.
"The key to building a modern socialist country in an all-round way and promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation in an all-round way lies in the party." History and practice have repeatedly shown that to comprehensively build a modern socialist country and comprehensively promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we must have a strong force leading the Chinese people to advance, and this strong force is the Communist Party of China. The party's leadership has a direct bearing on the fundamental direction, future and destiny, and ultimate success or failure of Chinese-style modernization.
The party's leadership determines the fundamental nature of Chinese-style modernization, and only by unswervingly adhering to the party's leadership can Chinese-style modernization have a bright future and prosperity. Otherwise, you will go off course, lose your soul, and even make subversive mistakes. The leadership of the Party ensures the steady and far-reaching implementation of the anchor goal of Chinese-style modernization. The Party makes decisions and implements them in accordance with the development and changes of the main tasks at different stages of Chinese-style modernization, not only adheres to, enriches and develops theories, formulates, adjusts and improves the line, principles and policies, but also plays the role of overseeing the overall situation and coordinating all parties. The party's leadership has stimulated a strong impetus for building Chinese-style modernization. The Party has the courage to blaze new trails, conform to the trend of the times, respond to the demands of the people, strive to break down the obstacles of various systems and mechanisms, continuously enhance the vitality of social development, better translate the advantages of the mainland system into the efficiency of national governance, and inject lasting impetus into Chinese-style modernization. The party's leadership has gathered the majestic force for building Chinese-style modernization. The Party has always adhered to the people-centered approach, implemented the mass line, maintained flesh-and-blood ties with the people, closely relied on the people, respected the people's creative spirit, and pooled the wisdom and strength of all the people. At the same time, we should unite all the forces that can be united, mobilize all the positive factors that can be mobilized, and gather the powerful force of common struggle to the greatest extent.
Chinese-style modernization is the most extensive and profound social change in the history of the mainland, and the most ambitious and unique practical innovation in the history of mankind. The journey is unprecedented and challenging. The more complicated the situation and the more arduous the tasks, the more necessary it is to give full play to the greatest advantage of the party's leadership. On the new journey, to uphold and strengthen the party's overall leadership, the most fundamental thing is to further deeply understand the decisive significance of the "two establishments", enhance the "four consciousnesses", strengthen the "four self-confidences", and achieve the "two safeguards". In the important article "The Mission and Tasks of the Communist Party of China in the New Era and New Journey", General Secretary Xi Jinping put forward clear requirements for upholding and strengthening the party's overall leadership: "Implement the party's leadership in all fields and aspects of the cause of the party and the country, so that the party will always be the most reliable backbone of all the people when the storm strikes, ensure the correct direction of the mainland's socialist modernization, ensure that there is a strong political cohesion and self-confidence in unity and struggle, and gather the majestic strength of all people to overcome difficulties together." ”
The only way to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation
"What kind of modernization do we need? How can you modernize? ”
Achieving modernization is the common pursuit of the people of all countries in the world. Today, a large number of emerging market countries and developing countries are on the fast track to development. How to go on this road? The eyes of the world are on the East.

On March 15, 2023, General Secretary Xi Jinping attended the high-level dialogue between the Communist Party of China and world political parties, and gave China's answer to this thought-provoking "modernization question": "We must insist on putting the development of the country and the nation on the basis of our own strength, firmly grasp the destiny of national development and progress in our own hands, and respect and support the independent choice of the people of all countries on the path of development." ”
Throughout history, countries have had a tortuous and bumpy journey to explore the path to modernization. In the mid-to-late 20 th century, some developing countries, regardless of their national conditions and historical conditions, completely copied the Western model, and as a result, they were unable to adapt to the local situation, and most of them fell into the predicament of long-term economic stagnation and social and political turmoil. The lesson of history is profound: there is no way out of copying, and imitation leads to loss. In the history of mankind, no nation or country can become strong and rejuvenated by relying on external forces, copying foreign models, and following in the footsteps of others. The result of that is either inevitable defeat or inevitable observance of others.
"The path of socialism with Chinese characteristics is the only way to realize socialist modernization and create a better life for the people." In the course of a century of struggle, the party has always persisted in proceeding from the mainland's national conditions, integrated the basic tenets of Marxism with China's specific realities and with China's excellent traditional culture, persisted in being independent and self-reliant, insisted that China's affairs should be handled in accordance with China's characteristics and China's realities, and embarked on a path of its own modernization. Along this road, the mainland has completed the industrialization process that developed countries have gone through for hundreds of years in a few decades, and has created a miracle of rapid economic development and long-term social stability. General Secretary Xi Jinping profoundly pointed out that "China has undergone earth-shaking changes, and the fundamental reason is that we have found a correct path that conforms to China's national conditions, conforms to the trend of the times, and has the support of the people, which is socialism with Chinese characteristics", and the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics "is not only right and successful, but also stable and good".
The path of socialism with Chinese characteristics is a broad road to create a better life for the people and realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. If we have seen and identified this path, we must unswervingly continue to walk. General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly warned that we must always remain sober and firm, maintain a strong determination to move forward, and "no matter what storms we encounter, we must be consistent on the fundamental issue of adhering to the road of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and never change course because of all kinds of noise." In the important article "The Mission and Tasks of the Communist Party of China in the New Era and New Journey", the general secretary focused on the new journey and new mission, and put forward clear requirements for adhering to the road of socialism with Chinese characteristics: "Adhere to economic construction as the center, adhere to the four basic principles, adhere to reform and opening up, adhere to independence and self-reliance, adhere to the same path and will not change, neither take the old road of closure and rigidity, nor take the evil road of changing banners, and insist on putting the development of the country and the nation on the basis of their own strength, We should insist on firmly holding the destiny of China's development and progress in our own hands. ”
Let the achievements of Chinese-style modernization benefit all people in a more equitable manner
"In Chinese-style modernization, people's livelihood is the greatest. All the work of the party and the government is for the sake of the people living a happier life. ”
On April 22, 2024, General Secretary Xi Jinping, who was inspecting Chongqing, came to the community of Democratic Village, Xiejiawan Street, Jiulongpo District, and chatted with the residents of the community cordially, and exhorted him to "invest more financial and material resources to solve people's livelihood problems, do some practical things for people's livelihood every year, and continuously enhance the people's sense of gain, happiness and security".
The renovation of old communities is directly related to the people's sense of gain, happiness and security, and is an important task to improve the quality of people's lives. In recent years, nearly 100 old residential areas have been renovated in Banan District, Chongqing, benefiting more than 37,000 households.

"The country is the people, and the people are the country." The Communist Party of China comes from the people and is a political party that strives for the interests of the people, and the people's stand is the fundamental political position of the Communist Party of China. Looking back at the magnificent course of struggle, our party unites and leads the people to carry out revolution, grasp reform, and promote development, and in the final analysis, it is to enable the people to live a better life. For the sake of the people's interests, no matter how great the challenges and pressures we face, no matter how much sacrifices and costs we pay, our party has always been unswerving and tenacious.
"Only by adhering to the people-centered development philosophy, insisting that development is for the people, development depends on the people, and the fruits of development are shared by the people, can we have a correct outlook on development and modernization." Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core has put forward the people-centered development philosophy, insisted on doing everything for the people and relying on the people, and written a new chapter of the supremacy of the people. In the new era, from the all-round well-off of "no one is missing" to the common prosperity of "no one can be left behind"; From the comprehensive deepening of reform that "the people have called for and the reform has responded", to the fight against the epidemic that "in order to protect the safety of people's lives, we can do anything"; From the anti-corruption struggle of "showing the sword to the unhealthy trends and corruption problems around the masses" to the construction of the rule of law "striving to make the people feel fairness and justice in every legal system, every law enforcement decision, and every judicial case"; From the earnest entrustment of "doing a good job of the things that the people are concerned about" to the solemn promise of "making the people's lives better day by day...... It is precisely because of the firm belief that "the supremacy of the people is the fundamental prerequisite for making the right choice" that the Chinese Communists in the new era uphold the feelings of "I will live up to the people without me" and the determination to "serve the people and shoulder the responsibilities they should bear". It is precisely because of the firm belief that "the people's yearning for a better life is our goal" that the Chinese Communists in the new era insist on "taking the benefit of the people as the most important political achievement", solve the practical problems that the people are concerned about, and constantly promote the all-round development of the people and the common prosperity of all the people to achieve more obvious and substantive progress.
Governing the country is permanent, and benefiting the people is the foundation. No matter how far we go and how far we develop, "satisfactorily realizing, safeguarding, and developing the fundamental interests of the broadest masses of the people" will always be the starting point and end goal of all our party's work. In the important article "The Mission and Tasks of the Communist Party of China in the New Era and New Journey", General Secretary Xi Jinping put forward clear requirements to the whole party: "safeguard the fundamental interests of the people, improve people's livelihood and well-being, and continue to realize that development is for the people, development depends on the people, and the fruits of development are shared by the people, so that the fruits of modernization can benefit all the people more and more fairly." ”
Reform and opening up is an important magic weapon for the cause of the party and the people to catch up with the times in great strides
The wind comes from the sea, and the port prospers. The port is the gateway to the outside world, and the witness of China's reform and opening up.
Shandong Rizhao Port, in the tide of the times, has rapidly grown into the "youngest" 500 million ton port, the world's first open and fully automated container terminal along the shore, and the annual cargo throughput ranks seventh in the world. From the unknown to the sudden rise to the head of the tide, it is the magical power of reform and opening up that has created this deep-water port.

On May 22, 2024, General Secretary Xi Jinping's first stop in Shandong came to Rizhao Port. In the face of the energetic and high-spirited port people, the general secretary was full of feelings: "You are the vanguard of reform and opening up. From this, we should strengthen our belief that China's road of reform and opening up will certainly succeed. ”
Reform and opening up is the most striking feature and the most magnificent atmosphere of contemporary China. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core has faced new contradictions and challenges with great political courage and wisdom, unprecedented determination and intensity, broken through the shackles of ideology and concepts, broken through the barriers of solidified interests, eliminated the shortcomings of various systems and mechanisms, and promoted reform from partial exploration and ice-breaking breakthroughs to system integration and comprehensive deepening. At the same time, we have actively responded to the risks and challenges brought about by changes in the external environment, unswervingly expanded opening-up, and formed a new pattern of all-round, multi-level and wide-ranging opening-up. In today's China, Qianhai and Hengqin, the "special zones of special zones", and Xiong'an, the "city of the future", have one after another new landmarks of reform and opening up in the new era, rising from the ground and changing with each passing day; A large number of reform experimental fields, such as the Pilot Demonstration Zone of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics, the Leading Zone for Socialist Modernization, the Free Trade Port with Chinese Characteristics, and the Demonstration Zone for High-quality Development and Common Prosperity, have been explored first and burst with vitality; The "power source" for the high-quality development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, the Yangtze River Delta and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the "river strategy" for the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt and the ecological protection and high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin, and the "major regional strategy" for the development of the western region, the comprehensive revitalization of the northeast, the rise of the central region and the development of the eastern region are complementary...... The highlands of reform and the frontiers of opening up are constantly expanding the space-time layout of reform and opening up in the new era, and playing a majestic and passionate chorus of reform and opening up on the new journey.
If China wants to move forward, it must deepen reform and opening up. Reform and opening up have gone through thousands of mountains and rivers, and we still need to wade through mountains and rivers. General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed that "no matter what changes occur in the world, China's confidence and will in reform and opening up will not be shaken", "we must take the comprehensive deepening of reform as the fundamental driving force for promoting Chinese-style modernization, as an important starting point for stabilizing the overall situation, responding to the situation, and opening up a new situation, and set the right direction, keep the integrity and innovation, and work hard to write a new chapter of reform and opening up on the new journey". In the important article "The Mission and Tasks of the Communist Party of China in the New Era and New Journey", the general secretary put forward clear requirements for persisting in deepening reform and opening up: "Deeply promote reform and innovation, unswervingly expand opening up, strive to break down deep-seated institutional and institutional obstacles, constantly demonstrate the advantages of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, continuously enhance the driving force and vitality of socialist modernization, and better transform the advantages of the mainland system into the efficiency of national governance." ”
Since the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has profoundly expounded a series of major issues such as the strategic focus and main direction of further deepening reform and opening up on many important occasions such as the Plenary Session of the CPC Central Committee, the meeting of the Central Committee for Deep Reform, the collective study of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, the National People's Congress and the National People's Congress and local inspections. Since the beginning of this year, the general secretary has repeatedly put forward clear requirements for further deepening reform in an all-round way: at the two sessions of the National People's Congress, it was emphasized that "it is necessary to plan major measures to further deepen reform in an all-round way"; During the inspection in Hunan, he pointed out that "to further deepen the reform in an all-round way, we must highlight the problem orientation"; He presided over a symposium of enterprises and experts in Shandong, and proposed that "it is necessary to closely follow the theme of promoting Chinese-style modernization, highlight the key points of reform, firmly grasp the value orientation, and pay attention to ways and means". The upcoming Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee will review the "Decision of the CPC Central Committee on Further Comprehensively Deepening Reform and Promoting Chinese-style Modernization". Under the leadership of the General Secretary, China's reform and opening up on the new journey will continue to advance to a deeper level and a higher realm, and will surely create a new and greater miracle that will impress the world!
Rely on tenacious struggle to open up a new world for career development
"The Communists created a new situation out of the struggle".
In May 1930, Comrade Mao Zedong described the struggle of the Communists in "Against Fundamentalism". To those comrades who were "content with the status quo, did not seek much understanding, and were vainly optimistic," he shouted: "Go to the struggle!" ”
Great victories always have to pass the test of life and death; Great undertakings often depend on arduous struggles to accomplish them. Along the way, in the forging of blood and fire, in the struggle of the tide of the times, and in the course of coping with various difficulties and challenges, our party has tempered the character and quality of not fearing strong enemies, not fearing risks, daring to struggle, and daring to win. This is the distinctive characteristic and characteristic of our party.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the environment facing the development of the mainland has been very complex, and various risks and challenges have followed. In the face of a complex situation, arduous tasks and severe tests that are rare in the world and history, General Secretary Xi Jinping warned the whole party that "the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is by no means easy and can be achieved by beating gongs and drums, and a great struggle must be waged to realize the great dream" and "a great struggle with many new historical characteristics must be prepared". The CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core has carried forward the great historical initiative spirit, and led the whole party and the people of all ethnic groups in the country to carry forward the spirit of not believing in evil and not fearing ghosts with extraordinary courage, tenacious will, and superb wisdom, strengthening confidence, facing difficulties, stabilizing the economy, promoting development, fighting poverty, building a well-off society, controlling the epidemic, fighting major disasters, responding to the situation, and resolving crises. It has won one great victory after another, and firmly grasped the initiative in the mainland's development and security.
"The road is not the same as a flat river." At present, the world is undergoing major changes unseen in a century, and the changes in the world, the times, and history are unfolding in an unprecedented way. The development of the mainland has entered a period of coexistence of strategic opportunities, risks and challenges, and increasing uncertainties and unpredictable factors, and the risks and challenges that need to be dealt with and the contradictions that need to be prevented and resolved are more severe and complex than before. General Secretary Xi Jinping earnestly admonished: "The various struggles we face are not short-term but long-term, and at least accompany us in the whole process of realizing the second centenary goal", requiring the whole party to "enhance the sense of danger, adhere to the bottom-line thinking, be prepared for danger in times of peace, take precautions, and be prepared to withstand the major tests of high winds and waves and even stormy seas". In the important article "The Mission and Tasks of the Communist Party of China in the New Era and New Journey", the general secretary put forward clear requirements for persisting in carrying forward the spirit of struggle: "Strengthen the ambition, backbone and confidence of the whole party and the people of all ethnic groups in the country, do not believe in evil, are not afraid of ghosts, are not afraid of pressure, advance in the face of difficulties, face difficulties, coordinate development and security, make every effort to overcome all kinds of difficulties and challenges on the way forward, and rely on tenacious struggle to open up a new world for the development of the cause." ”
"We have walked a bright road, and we will continue to move forward." Forge ahead on a new journey full of glory and dreams, we are full of confidence and strength. With the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core, the scientific guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, and the united struggle of the whole Party and the people of all ethnic groups across the country, the goal of building China into a great modern socialist country in all respects will definitely be realized, and the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation will definitely be realized!
