Since its founding in 1921, the Communist Party of China has always regarded seeking happiness for the Chinese people and rejuvenation of the Chinese nation as its original mission, always adhered to the communist ideal and socialist conviction, united and led the people of all nationalities throughout the country to fight unremittingly for national independence, the people's liberation, and the realization of national prosperity and strength, and the people's happiness.

Over the past 100 years, the party has led the people in bloody battles and perseverance to create great achievements in the new democratic revolution; great achievements in socialist revolution and construction through self-reliance and indignation; great achievements in reform, opening up, and socialist modernization by emancipating the mind and forging ahead with determination; and self-confidence, uprightness, and innovation, and creating great achievements in socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era. Over the past century, the party and the people have struggled for a century and written the most magnificent epic in the history of the Chinese nation for thousands of years.

Summarizing the major achievements and historical experience of the Party over the past century is the need to start a new journey of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way under the conditions of the centenary history of the founding of the Party, and to uphold and develop socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era; The core position of the whole party, resolutely upholding the authority of the party central committee and centralized and unified leadership, and ensuring that the whole party marches forward in unison; it is necessary to promote the party's self-revolution, improve the party's ability to fight and cope with risks and challenges, always maintain the party's vitality, and unite and lead the people of all ethnic groups across the country to continue to struggle for the realization of the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. The whole Party should adhere to the materialist view of history and the correct view of Party history, clearly see why we were able to succeed in the past and how we can continue to succeed in the future from the Party's centennial struggle, so as to more firmly and consciously fulfill the original mission and better adhere to and develop socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.

The "Resolution on Certain Historical Issues" adopted at the Seventh Plenary Session of the Sixth CPC Central Committee in 1945 and the "Resolution on Several Historical Issues of the Party since the Founding of the People's Republic of China" adopted at the Sixth Plenary Session of the 11 th CPC Central Committee in 1981 have summed up the party's major historical events and important lessons and lessons in seeking truth from facts, unified the thinking and action of the whole party at major historical junctures, and played an important leading role in advancing the cause of the party and the people.

1. Winning the great victory of the new democratic revolution

During the period of the new democratic revolution, the main task facing the party was to oppose imperialism, feudalism, and bureaucratic capitalism, to strive for national independence and the people's liberation, and to create fundamental social conditions for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

The Chinese nation is an ancient and great nation in the world, which has created a splendid civilization that has lasted for more than 5,000 years and has made indelible contributions to the progress of human civilization. After the Opium War in 1840, due to the invasion of Western powers and the corruption of feudal rule, China gradually became a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. In order to save the nation from peril, the Chinese people rose up to resist, and people with lofty ideals ran and shouted, waging a singing and weeping struggle. The Taiping Rebellion, the Westernization Movement, the Wuxu Reform, and the Boxer Rebellion arose one after another, and various plans for national salvation were introduced one after another, but all of them ended in failure. The Xinhai Revolution led by Dr. Sun Yat-sen overthrew the absolute monarchy that had ruled China for thousands of years, but failed to change the nature of China's semi-colonial and semi-feudal society and the tragic fate of the Chinese people. China urgently needs new ideas to lead the salvation movement, and it urgently needs new organizations to unite revolutionary forces.

The October Revolution brought Marxism-Leninism to China with the sound of a cannon. The May Fourth Movement promoted the spread of Marxism in China. In the great awakening of the Chinese people and the Chinese nation, and in the close integration of Marxism-Leninism with the Chinese workers' movement, the Communist Party of China came into being in July 1921. The birth of the Communist Party in China was a groundbreaking event, and the Chinese revolution took on a completely new look.

The Party profoundly understands that the main contradictions in modern Chinese society are the contradictions between imperialism and the Chinese nation, and between feudalism and the masses of the people. To realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, it is necessary to carry out an anti-imperialist and anti-feudal struggle.

At the beginning of the founding of the Party and during the period of the Great Revolution, the Party formulated a program for the democratic revolution, mobilized the workers' movement, the youth movement, the peasant movement, and the women's movement, promoted and helped the reorganization of the Kuomintang and the establishment of the National Revolutionary Army, led the great struggle against imperialism and feudalism throughout the country, and set off the upsurge of the Great Revolution. In 1927, the reactionary clique within the Kuomintang betrayed the revolution and brutally slaughtered the Communists and the revolutionary people, and because the right-leaning ideology represented by Chen Duxiu in the party developed into a right-leaning opportunist error and occupied a dominant position in the party's leading organs, the party and the people were unable to organize effective resistance, resulting in a crushing defeat of the great revolution under the sudden attack of a powerful enemy.

During the period of the Agrarian Revolutionary War, the Party realized from the cruel reality that without revolutionary arming it could not defeat the armed counterrevolution, that it would not be able to win the victory of the Chinese revolution, that it would not be able to change the fate of the Chinese people and the Chinese nation, and that it would oppose the armed counterrevolution with armed revolution. The Nanchang Uprising fired the first shot of armed resistance against the Kuomintang reactionaries, marking the beginning of the CPC's independent leadership of the revolutionary war, the creation of the people's army, and the armed seizure of power. The 87th Conference decided on the policy of carrying out the agrarian revolution and armed uprising. The party led the Autumn Harvest Uprising, the Canton Uprising, and many other regional uprisings, but most of these uprisings failed due to the disparity in strength between the enemy and the enemy. Facts have proved that under the objective conditions at that time, it was impossible for the Chinese Communists to win the victory of the revolution in the whole country by first occupying the central cities, as in the October Revolution in Russia, and the Party urgently needed to find a revolutionary road suited to China's national conditions.

The shift from attacking the big cities to marching into the countryside was a new starting point of decisive significance for the Chinese revolution. Comrade Mao Zedong led the army and the people to establish the first rural revolutionary base in Jinggangshan, and the party led the people to fight local tyrants and divide the land. The Gutian Conference established the principle of ideological party building and political army building. With the development of the struggle, the Party established the Central Revolutionary Base Areas and base areas in western Hunan, Hubei, Hailufeng, Hubei, Henan, Anhui, Qiongya, Fujian, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hunan, Hubei, Jiangxi, Zuojiang, Sichuan-Shaanxi, Shaanxi-Gansu, Hunan-Hubei, Sichuan-Guizhou, and other base areas. The Party also developed the Party and other revolutionary organizations in the White Zones under the rule of the Kuomintang, and carried out mass revolutionary struggles. However, due to Wang Ming's erroneous leadership of "leftist" dogmatism within the party, the fifth anti-"encirclement and suppression" campaign in the central revolutionary base areas failed, and the Red Army had to make a strategic shift and move to northern Shaanxi after an arduous Long March. The mistakes of the "leftist" line caused great losses to the revolutionary base areas and the revolutionary forces in the white areas.

In January 1935, the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee held the Zunyi Conference on the way to the Long March, which in fact established Comrade Mao Zedong's leading position in the Party Central Committee and the Red Army, began to establish the leading position of the correct Marxist line with Comrade Mao Zedong as the main representative in the Party Central Committee, and began to form the first generation of the Party's central leadership collective with Comrade Mao Zedong as the core. It saved the Chinese revolution and enabled the Party to defeat Zhang Guotao's separatism, successfully complete the Long March, and open up a new situation for the Chinese revolution. This was a life-and-death turning point in the party's history.

During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, after the September 18 Incident, the national contradictions between China and Japan gradually surpassed the domestic class contradictions and rose to become the main contradictions. At the juncture when Japanese imperialism was stepping up its aggression against China and the national crisis was unprecedentedly serious, the Party took the lead in holding high the banner of armed resistance against Japan, extensively launched the anti-Japanese salvation movement, and brought about the peaceful settlement of the Xi'an Incident, which played a major historical role in promoting the Kuomintang and the Communist Party to cooperate again and unite to resist Japan. After the July 7 Incident, the party implemented the correct policy of the anti-Japanese national united front, adhered to the line of all-round anti-Japanese war, put forward and implemented the general strategic principle of protracted war and a complete set of strategies and tactics for the people's war, opened up vast battlefields behind enemy lines and anti-Japanese base areas, led the Eighth Route Army, the New Fourth Army, the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Army, and other people's anti-Japanese armed forces to fight bravely, and became the mainstay of the whole nation's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression until the final victory of the Chinese people's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. This was the first national liberation struggle in which the Chinese people won a complete victory against foreign invasion in modern times, and it was also an important part of the victory of the world anti-fascist war.

During the War of Liberation, in the face of the all-out civil war brazenly launched by the Kuomintang reactionaries, the Party led the broad masses of the army and the people to gradually shift from active defense to strategic offensive, won the three major battles of Liaoshen, Huaihai, and Pingjin and the battle of crossing the Yangtze River, marched victoriously to the south-central, northwestern, and southwest, wiped out the 8 million troops of the Kuomintang reactionaries, overthrew the reactionary government of the Kuomintang, and overthrew the three mountains of imperialism, feudalism, and bureaucratic capitalism. With the support of the people, the people's army under the leadership of the party waged a desperate struggle against the ferocious enemy with indomitable heroism, and made historical contributions to the victory of the new democratic revolution.

In the course of the revolutionary struggle, the Chinese Communists, with Comrade Mao Zedong as the main representative, integrated the basic tenets of Marxism-Leninism with China's specific reality, theoretically summarized a series of original experiences accumulated through arduous exploration and tremendous sacrifices, opened up the correct revolutionary road of encircling the cities from the countryside and seizing political power by armed force, founded Mao Zedong Thought, and pointed out the correct direction for winning the victory of the new democratic revolution.

In the course of the revolutionary struggle, the Party carried forward the great spirit of party building of upholding the truth, sticking to ideals, practicing the original aspiration, undertaking the mission, not afraid of sacrifice, heroic struggle, loyalty to the party, and living up to the people, implemented and promoted the great project of party building, put forward the principle of emphasizing the ideological building of the party, adhered to democratic centralism, adhered to the three fine work styles of integrating theory with practice, maintaining close ties with the masses, and criticism and self-criticism, formed the three magic weapons of the united front, armed struggle, and party building, and worked hard to build a nationwide and broad mass force. A Marxist party that is ideologically, politically, and organizationally consolidated. Since 1942, the party has carried out rectification throughout the party, and this Marxist ideological education campaign has achieved tremendous results. The Party formulated the "Resolution on Certain Historical Issues" to unify the understanding of the whole Party on the basic issues of the Chinese revolution. The Seventh National Congress of the Communist Party of China formulated the correct line, principles, and policies for the establishment of a new democratic new China, and enabled the whole party to achieve unprecedented ideological, political, and organizational unity and unity.

After 28 years of bloody struggle, the party led the people, and with the active cooperation of all democratic parties and democratic personages without party affiliation, proclaimed the founding of the People's Republic of China on 1 October 1949. The people's liberation has completely ended the history of the semi-colonial and semi-feudal society of old China, the history of a very small number of exploiters ruling the broad masses of working people, the situation of scattered sand in old China, the unequal treaties imposed on China by the great powers and all the privileges of imperialism in China, and the great leap of China from thousands of years of feudal autocracy to people's democracy, which has also greatly changed the political pattern of the world and inspired the struggle of the oppressed nations and oppressed people all over the world for liberation.

Practice has fully demonstrated that history and the people have chosen the Communist Party of China, and without the leadership of the Communist Party of China, national independence and the people's liberation would not have been possible. The Communist Party of China and the Chinese people solemnly declared to the world with their heroic and tenacious struggle that the Chinese people have stood up from now on, that the era of the Chinese nation being slaughtered and bullied by others is gone forever, and that a new era of China's development has since begun.

2. Completing the socialist revolution and advancing socialist construction

During the period of socialist revolution and construction, the main tasks facing the Party are to realize the transformation from new democracy to socialism, carry out the socialist revolution, promote socialist construction, and lay the fundamental political prerequisite and institutional foundation for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

After the founding of New China, the party led the people to overcome a series of severe political, economic, and military challenges, wiped out the remnants of the Kuomintang reactionary armed forces and bandits, peacefully liberated Tibet, and realized the complete reunification of the mainland of the motherland; stabilized prices, unified financial and economic work, completed land reform, carried out democratic reform in all aspects of society, implemented equal rights between men and women, suppressed counterrevolutionaries, launched the "three antis" and "five antis" campaigns, washed away the sludge and muddy waters left by the old society, and completely changed the social outlook. The Chinese People's Volunteers crossed the Yalu River with great strength and high spirit, fought shoulder to shoulder with the Korean people and army, defeated a strong enemy armed to the teeth, displayed national prestige and military prestige, displayed the spirit of the Chinese people, won a great victory in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, safeguarded the security of New China, and demonstrated New China's status as a great power. The People's Republic of China has gained a firm foothold in the complex domestic and international environment.

The establishment and consolidation of the state power of the people's democratic dictatorship led by the working class and based on the alliance of workers and peasants under the leadership of the party has created conditions for the rapid development of the country. In 1949, the First Plenary Session of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference formulated the "Common Program of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference." In 1953, the Party formally put forward the general line for the transitional period, that is, to gradually realize the socialist industrialization of the country and the socialist transformation of agriculture, handicrafts, and capitalist industry and commerce within a fairly long period of time. In 1954, the First Session of the First National People's Congress was convened and the Constitution of the People's Republic of China was adopted. In 1956, China basically completed the socialist transformation of the private ownership of the means of production, basically realized the public ownership of the means of production and distribution according to work, and established a socialist economic system. The establishment of the people's congress system, the system of multi-party cooperation and political consultation under the leadership of the Communist Party of China, and the system of regional ethnic autonomy under the leadership of the Party have provided institutional guarantees for the people to be the masters of the country. Under the leadership of the party, the great unity of the people of all nationalities throughout the country has been realized and consolidated, socialist ethnic relations of equality and mutual assistance among all nationalities have been formed and developed, the great unity of workers, peasants, intellectuals, and people of all other strata throughout the country has been realized and consolidated, and the broad united front has been strengthened and expanded. The establishment of the socialist system has laid an important foundation for all progress and development in our country.

The Eighth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, in light of the situation after the socialist transformation in our country was basically completed, pointed out that the main contradiction in the country is no longer the contradiction between the working class and the bourgeoisie, but the contradiction between the people's needs for rapid economic and cultural development and the current situation in which the economy and culture cannot meet the people's needs, and that the main task of the people of the whole country is to concentrate their efforts on developing the social productive forces, realizing the country's industrialization, and gradually satisfying the people's growing material and cultural needs. The party proposes to strive to gradually build China into a powerful socialist country with modern agriculture, modern industry, modern national defense, and modern science and technology, and to lead the people in carrying out comprehensive large-scale socialist construction. As a result of the implementation of several five-year plans, China has established an independent and relatively complete industrial system and a national economic system, the conditions for agricultural production have changed markedly, and education, science, culture, public health, and sports have made great progress. Breakthroughs have been made in cutting-edge national defense science and technology, such as "two bombs and one satellite," and the national defense industry has gradually developed from scratch. The People's Liberation Army (PLA) has been strengthened and improved, and has developed from a single army into a composite army that includes the navy, air force, and other technical arms, providing a strong backing for consolidating the nascent people's political power, establishing China's status as a great power, and safeguarding the dignity of the Chinese nation.

The Party adheres to an independent foreign policy of peace, advocates and adheres to the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, firmly upholds national independence, sovereignty and dignity, supports and assists the cause of liberation of the world's oppressed nations, the construction of a new independent country and the just struggle of the peoples of all countries, and opposes imperialism, hegemonism, colonialism and racism, thus putting an end to the humiliating diplomacy of old China. The Party has adjusted its diplomatic strategy by judging the hour and sizing up the situation, promoting the restoration of all China's legitimate rights in the United Nations, opening up a new situation in its external work, and promoting the formation of a pattern in which the international community adheres to the one-China principle. The CPC has put forward the strategy of dividing the three worlds and made a solemn promise that China will never seek hegemony, which has won the respect and praise of the international community, especially the developing countries.

The Second Plenary Session of the Seventh CPC Central Committee, which was held as early as the eve of the national victory in the War of Liberation, proposed to the whole party that it is necessary to continue to maintain a modest, cautious, not arrogant, and not rash style of work, and to continue to maintain the style of arduous struggle. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the party focused on putting forward the major issues of party building under the conditions of being in power, and strengthened party building and consolidated the party's leadership in terms of ideology, organization, and work style. The party has strengthened the theoretical study and knowledge training of cadres, improved the party's leadership level, and demanded that the whole party, especially the party's senior cadres, strengthen their consciousness of safeguarding the party's unity and unity. The Party has carried out rectification and rectification of the Party, strengthened education within the Party, rectified the grassroots Party organizations, raised the conditions for Party members, and opposed bureaucracy, commandism, and corruption. The Party is highly vigilant and strives to prevent corruption and degeneration of Party members and cadres, and resolutely punish corruption. These important measures have strengthened the purity of the party and the unity of the whole party, strengthened the ties between the party and the masses, and accumulated initial experience in the building of the ruling party.

During this period, Comrade Mao Zedong proposed a "second integration" of the basic tenets of Marxism-Leninism with China's specific reality The Chinese Communists, with Comrade Mao Zedong as the main representative, have enriched and developed Mao Zedong Thought in the light of the new reality and put forward a series of important ideas on socialist construction, including that socialist society is a very long historical stage, strictly distinguish and correctly handle the contradictions between the enemy and ourselves and the contradictions among the people, correctly handle the 10 major relations between China's socialist construction, embark on a road of industrialization suited to China's national conditions, respect the law of values, and practice "long-term coexistence and mutual supervision" in the relations between the party and the democratic parties In scientific and cultural work, we should implement the principle of "letting a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend." These original theoretical achievements still have important guiding significance.

Mao Zedong Thought is the creative application and development of Marxism-Leninism in China, the correct theoretical principles and experience summary of China's revolution and construction that have been proven by practice, and the first historical leap in the Sinicization of Marxism. The living soul of Mao Zedong Thought is the stand, viewpoint, and method that permeate all its components, which are embodied in the three basic aspects of seeking truth from facts, the mass line, and independence, and provide scientific guidance for the development of the cause of the party and the people.

Regrettably, the correct line formed at the Eighth National Congress of the Communist Party of China has not been fully adhered to, and mistakes have occurred one after another, such as the "Great Leap Forward" movement and the people's communization movement, and the struggle against the rightists has also been seriously expanded. In the face of the severe and complex external environment at that time, the Party was extremely concerned about the consolidation of socialist power and made efforts in various ways to this end. However, Comrade Mao Zedong's theoretical and practical mistakes in the class struggle in socialist society developed more and more serious, and the Party Central Committee failed to correct these mistakes in a timely manner. Comrade Mao Zedong made a completely wrong estimation of the class situation in China and the political situation of the party and the state at that time, and launched and led the "Cultural Revolution." The two counterrevolutionary cliques, Lin Biao and Jiang Qing, took advantage of Comrade Mao Zedong's mistakes to carry out a large number of criminal activities that brought calamity to the country and the people, causing 10 years of civil strife, causing the party, the state, and the people to suffer the most serious setbacks and losses since the founding of New China. In October 1976, the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee carried out the will of the party and the people, resolutely smashed the "Gang of Four" and put an end to the catastrophe of the "Cultural Revolution."

From the founding of the People's Republic of China to the eve of reform and opening up, the Party led the people to complete the socialist revolution, eliminate all exploitation systems, bring about the most extensive and profound social transformation in the history of the Chinese nation, and make great strides into a socialist society for a large country in the East with a large population and a large population. In the course of exploration, although it has experienced serious setbacks, the party's original theoretical achievements and tremendous achievements in socialist revolution and construction have provided valuable experience, theoretical preparation, and material foundation for creating socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new historical period.

The Communist Party of China and the Chinese people have solemnly declared to the world with heroic and tenacious struggle that the Chinese people are not only good at destroying an old world but also at building a new world, and that only socialism can save China and only socialism can develop China.

3. Carry out reform, opening up, and socialist modernization

In the new period of reform, opening up, and socialist modernization, the main tasks facing the party are to continue to explore the correct path for building socialism in China, to liberate and develop the social productive forces, to enable the people to shake off poverty and become prosperous as soon as possible, and to provide a structural guarantee full of new vitality and material conditions for rapid development for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

After the end of the "Cultural Revolution," at the important historical juncture when the party and the country were faced with which way to go, the party profoundly realized that only the implementation of reform and opening up was the only way out, otherwise our modernization and socialist undertakings would be buried. In December 1978, the party convened the Third Plenary Session of the 11 th CPC Central Committee, which resolutely put an end to the "class struggle as the key link," realized the strategic shift of the work center of the party and the state, opened a new period of reform, opening up, and socialist modernization, and brought about a great turning point of far-reaching significance in the party's history since the founding of New China. The Party made the important decision of completely repudiating the "Cultural Revolution". For more than 40 years, the party has unswervingly adhered to the line, principles, and policies established by this plenary session.

After the Third Plenary Session of the 11 th CPC Central Committee, the Chinese Communists, with Comrade Deng Xiaoping as the main representative, united and led the whole party and the people of all nationalities throughout the country to profoundly sum up the positive and negative experiences since the founding of New China, and around the fundamental question of what socialism is and how to build socialism, and draw on the historical experience of socialism in the world, they founded Deng Xiaoping Theory, emancipated their minds, sought truth from facts, and made decisions to shift the focus of the work of the party and the state to economic construction. The historic policy decision of carrying out reform and opening up has profoundly revealed the essence of socialism, established the basic line for the initial stage of socialism, clearly put forward the idea of taking our own road and building socialism with Chinese characteristics, scientifically answered a series of basic questions about building socialism with Chinese characteristics, formulated a three-step development strategy for basically realizing socialist modernization by the middle of the 21 st century, and successfully created socialism with Chinese characteristics.

After the Fourth Plenary Session of the 13 th CPC Central Committee, the Chinese Communists, with Comrade Jiang Zemin as the main representative, united and led the whole party and the people of all nationalities throughout the country to adhere to the party's basic theory and line, deepened their understanding of what socialism is, how to build socialism, what kind of party to build, and how to build the party, and formed the important thinking of the "three represents." The situation at home and abroad is very complicated. In the face of the severe test of serious setbacks in world socialism, we have defended socialism with Chinese characteristics, established the reform objectives and basic framework of the socialist market economic system, established the basic economic system with public ownership as the mainstay and the common development of economies under various forms of ownership in the initial stage of socialism, and the distribution system with distribution according to work as the mainstay and the coexistence of various distribution methods, opened up a new situation of comprehensive reform and opening up, promoted the new great project of party building, and successfully pushed socialism with Chinese characteristics into the 21 st century.

After the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Chinese Communists, with Comrade Hu Jintao as the main representative, united and led the whole party and the people of all ethnic groups in the whole country to promote practical innovation, theoretical innovation and institutional innovation in the process of building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way. Comprehensively coordinated and sustainable development, we have made efforts to ensure and improve people's livelihood, promote social fairness and justice, and promoted the party's ability to govern and build its advanced nature, successfully upholding and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics under the new situation.

In order to promote reform and opening up, the party has re-established the ideological, political, and organizational line of Marxism, thoroughly negated the erroneous policy of "two whatevers," and correctly appraised the historical position of Comrade Mao Zedong and the scientific system of Mao Zedong Thought. The party has made it clear that the main contradiction in our society is the contradiction between the people's ever-growing material and cultural needs and backward social production, and that resolving this main contradiction is our central task, and has put forward the goal of a moderately prosperous society. The Party has restored and formulated a series of correct policies in all aspects of its work to readjust the national economy. The Party's leadership has comprehensively carried out ideological, political, and organizational efforts to bring order out of chaos, and to redress unjust, false and wrongly decided cases on a large scale, and to readjust social relations. The formulation of the "Resolution on Several Historical Issues of the Party since the Founding of the People's Republic of China" marked the successful completion of the Party's efforts to put things in order in its guiding ideology.

The party profoundly understands that to create a new situation in reform, opening up, and socialist modernization, it is necessary to lead the development of the cause with theoretical innovation. Comrade Deng Xiaoping pointed out that if a party, a country, and a nation proceeds from its basic principles, is rigid in its thinking, and superstition prevails, it will not be able to advance, its vitality will cease, and it will be doomed to the destruction of the party and the country. The Party has led and supported the great discussion on the issue of the criterion of truth, upheld and developed Marxism based on the new practice and the characteristics of the times, scientifically answered a series of basic questions such as the development path, development stage, fundamental task, development driving force, development strategy, political guarantee, reunification of the motherland, diplomacy and international strategy, leadership and reliance, etc., formed a theoretical system of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and achieved a new leap forward in the Sinicization of Marxism.

The 12th, 13th, 14th, 15th, 16th, and 17th National Congresses of the Communist Party of China, in accordance with the development and changes of the international and domestic situation, and proceeding from the new requirements of China's development, have consistently made comprehensive arrangements for promoting reform, opening up, and socialist modernization. China has taken the lead in making a breakthrough in the reform of the rural areas from the implementation of the household responsibility system for the production of goods, and has gradually shifted to the reform of the urban economic system and has been carried out in an all-round way, establishing the direction of reform of the socialist market economy, bringing into play the basic role of the market in the allocation of resources to a greater extent and on a wider scale, and upholding and improving the basic economic system and distribution system. The Party resolutely promotes the reform of the economic system, and at the same time carries out structural reforms in the political, cultural, social and other fields, promotes the reform of the Party-building system, and constantly forms and develops systems and mechanisms that are in line with the national conditions of contemporary China and full of vitality. The party has established opening up to the outside world as its basic national policy, and has made full use of both international and domestic markets and resources, from the establishment of Shenzhen and other special economic zones, the development and opening up of Pudong, the promotion of opening up along the coast, along the rivers and inland central cities to joining the World Trade Organization, and from "bringing in" to "going out." As a result of continuous reform and opening up, China has achieved a historic transformation from a highly centralized planned economic system to a dynamic socialist market economic system, and from a closed and semi-closed economy to an all-round opening up.

In order to accelerate socialist modernization, the party has led the people in economic, political, cultural, and social construction, and has made a series of major achievements. The party adheres to the principle of taking economic construction as the center, insisting that development is the last word, proposes that science and technology are the primary productive forces, implements major strategies such as rejuvenating the country through science and education, sustainable development, and strengthening the country with talents, promotes the large-scale development of the western region, revitalizes the old industrial bases such as the northeast region, promotes the rise of the central region, supports the eastern region to take the lead in development, and promotes urban and rural areas. Coordinated regional development, promote the reform and development of state-owned enterprises, encourage and support the development of the non-public economy, accelerate the transformation of economic development mode, strengthen ecological and environmental protection, promote sustained and rapid economic development, and greatly increase the comprehensive national strength. The Party adheres to the organic unity of the Party's leadership, the people being the masters of the country, and the rule of law, develops socialist democratic politics, builds socialist political civilization, actively and steadily promotes the reform of the political system, adheres to the combination of governing the country according to the law and governing the country by virtue, formulates a new constitution, builds a socialist country under the rule of law, forms a socialist legal system with Chinese characteristics, respects and protects human rights, and consolidates and develops the broadest patriotic united front. The Party has strengthened education on ideals and beliefs, promoted the construction of the socialist core value system, built socialist spiritual civilization, developed advanced socialist culture, and promoted the great development and prosperity of socialist culture. The Party has accelerated social construction with a focus on improving people's livelihood, improved people's livelihood, abolished agricultural taxes, and continuously promoted education for learning, income for labor, medical treatment for the sick, support for the elderly, and housing, so as to promote social harmony and stability. The Party has put forward the general goal of building a powerful, modernized, and regularized revolutionary army, placed the basis of preparations for military struggle on winning local wars under the conditions of informationization, promoted military reform with Chinese characteristics, and taken the road of elite troops with Chinese characteristics.

In the face of the ever-changing international situation, the Party unswervingly adheres to the four cardinal principles, resolutely eliminates all kinds of interference, and calmly copes with a series of risks and tests related to the overall situation of China's reform, development and stability. In the late eighties and early nineties of the twentieth century, the Soviet Union collapsed and Eastern Europe underwent drastic changes. Due to the support and incitement of the anti-communist and anti-socialist hostile forces in the international community, the general international climate and the domestic microclimate led to a serious political turmoil in China at the turn of the spring and summer of 1989. The party and the government relied on the people, took a clear-cut stand against turmoil, defended the socialist state power, and safeguarded the fundamental interests of the people. The Party has led the people to successfully deal with economic risks such as the Asian financial crisis and the international financial crisis, successfully hosted the 2008 Beijing Olympic and Paralympic Games, defeated natural disasters such as the severe floods in the Yangtze River, Nenjiang and Songhua River basins, the Wenchuan earthquake, and defeated the SARS epidemic, demonstrating the Party's ability to resist risks and manage complex situations.

The party regards the accomplishment of the great cause of the motherland's reunification as an important historical task and makes unremitting efforts to this end. Comrade Deng Xiaoping creatively put forward the scientific concept of "one country, two systems" and opened up a new way to realize the reunification of the motherland in a peaceful way.

The era of gradually realizing common prosperity for all the people is an era in which all the sons and daughters of China work together to realize the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and an era in which China continues to make greater contributions to mankind. The new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics is a new historical orientation for China's development.

The Chinese Communists, with Comrade Xi Jinping as the main representative, have persisted in integrating the basic tenets of Marxism with China's specific conditions and with China's excellent traditional culture, and have adhered to Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory, the important thinking of the "three represents," and the The Scientific Outlook on Development, profoundly summarizes and makes full use of the historical experience since the founding of the Party, proceeds from the new reality, and creates Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, making it clear that the most essential feature of socialism with Chinese characteristics is the leadership of the Communist Party of China, the greatest advantage of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics is the leadership of the Communist Party of China, and the Communist Party of China is the highest political leading force. It is clear that the general task of upholding and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics is to realize socialist modernization and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and on the basis of building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way, we should take two steps to build a prosperous, strong, democratic, civilized, harmonious, and beautiful modern socialist country by the middle of this century, and promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese-style modernization; It is clear that the overall layout of the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics is the integration of economic, political, cultural, social and ecological civilization, and the strategic layout is to comprehensively build a modern socialist country, comprehensively deepen reform, comprehensively govern the country according to law, and comprehensively and strictly govern the party.

Since the reform and opening up, the cause of the Party and the country has made great achievements, laying a solid foundation and creating favorable conditions for the development of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era. At the same time, the party is soberly aware that changes in the external environment have brought about many new risks and challenges, domestic reform, development and stability are facing many deep-seated contradictions and problems that have not been resolved for a long time, as well as some new contradictions and problems, and the once loose and soft governance of the party has brought about the spread of negative corruption within the party, serious problems in the political ecology, the relationship between the party and the masses and cadres and the masses has been damaged, the party's creativity, cohesion and combat effectiveness have been weakened, and the party's governance of the country is facing major tests.

(1) In upholding the party's overall leadership

Since the reform and opening up, the party has made sustained efforts to strengthen and improve the party's leadership, which has provided a fundamental political guarantee for the development of the cause of the party and the country. At the same time, there are also many problems within the party of vague understanding and lack of action to uphold the party's leadership, and there are many problems of weakening, blurring, diluting, and marginalizing the implementation of the party's leadership, especially the ineffective implementation of the major decisions and arrangements of the party central committee. The Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core has clearly put forward that the Party's leadership is the foundation and lifeblood of the Party and the country, and the interests and destiny of the people of all ethnic groups across the country.

The party has clearly pointed out that the party's leadership is comprehensive, systematic, and integral, and that ensuring the party's unity and unity is the party's life; the centralized and unified leadership of the party Central Committee is the highest principle of the party's leadership, and strengthening and maintaining the centralized and unified leadership of the party Central Committee is the common political responsibility of the whole party. The Sixth Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China adopted a number of guidelines on the political life of the Party under the new situation, and the Party Central Committee issued a number of regulations on strengthening and maintaining the centralized and unified leadership of the Party Central Committee by the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, strictly enforcing the Party's political discipline and rules, preventing and opposing individualism, decentralism, liberalism, self-centeredness, and good people, etc., developing a positive and healthy political culture within the Party, and promoting the creation of a good political ecology with a clean and upright atmosphere. The Party Central Committee requires the Party's leading cadres to improve their political judgment, political comprehension, and political execution, bear in mind the "great man of the country", be loyal to the Party, obey the Party's command, and fulfill their responsibilities for the Party. The Party has perfected the Party's leadership system, improved the Party's leadership over the National Assembly, the government, the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, the supervisory organs, the adjudication organs, the procuratorial organs, the armed forces, the people's organizations, enterprises and institutions, grassroots mass autonomous organizations, social organizations, and other systems, to ensure that the Party plays a leading role in all kinds of organizations. The Party adheres to the system of democratic centralism, establishes and improves the Party's leadership system for major work, strengthens the functions and roles of the Party Central Committee's decision-making, deliberation and coordination bodies, improves the mechanism for promoting the implementation of major decisions of the Party Central Committee, strictly implements the system of requesting instructions and reporting to the Party Central Committee, strengthens political supervision, deepens political inspections, investigates and deals with problems that violate the Party's line, principles and policies and undermine the Party's centralized and unified leadership, eliminate "two-faced people", and ensure that the whole Party maintains a high degree of consistency with the Party Central Committee in terms of political positions, political directions, political principles, and political paths.

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the authority of the Party Central Committee and the centralized and unified leadership have been strongly guaranteed, the Party's leadership system has been continuously improved, the Party's leadership mode has become more scientific, the whole Party has become more unified in thought, more politically united, and more consistent in action, and the Party's political leadership, ideological leadership, mass organization, and social appeal have been significantly enhanced.

(2) In the comprehensive and strict governance of the party

After the reform and opening up, the party insisted that the party should manage the party and govern the party strictly, and achieved remarkable results in promoting party building. At the same time, due to the problems of ineffective and lax management of the party, a serious crisis has arisen in the political beliefs of some party members and cadres, an unhealthy practice in the selection and appointment of personnel in some localities and departments, formalism, bureaucracy, hedonism, and extravagance have prevailed, and the idea of privilege and the phenomenon of privilege have become relatively widespread. In particular, there are those who engage in cronyism and the exclusion of those who disagree with them, those who engage in gangs and gangs, those who make anonymous false accusations and create rumors, those who buy people's hearts and pull votes, those who make official vows and celebrate each other, those who do their own thing and act in defiance of the law, and those who make a big deal and arbitrarily discuss the central authorities; political and economic problems are intertwined, and the degree of corruption is shocking. These "seven haves" problem has seriously affected the party's image and prestige, seriously damaged the relationship between the party and the masses and between the cadres and the masses, and aroused strong dissatisfaction and righteous indignation among the broad masses of party members, cadres, and the masses. Comrade Xi Jinping stressed that the key to running China's affairs well lies in the party, and the key lies in the party's management of the party and the party's comprehensive and strict governance. We must take strengthening the party's long-term ruling capacity and the building of its advanced nature and purity as the main line, take the party's political construction as the guide, take firm ideals, beliefs, and purposes as the foundation, and focus on mobilizing the enthusiasm, initiative, and creativity of the whole party, constantly improve the quality of party building, and build the party into a vigorous and vigorous Marxist ruling party that always walks in the forefront of the times, is wholeheartedly supported by the people, has the courage to revolutionize itself, and can withstand the test of all kinds of storms. With a sober and firm attitude that is always on the road, the party adheres to the main tone of strictness, highlights the "key minority", implements the main responsibility and supervision responsibility, strengthens supervision and discipline accountability, and runs the comprehensive and strict governance of the party through all aspects of party building. The Party Central Committee convened party building work conferences in various fields to make strong arrangements to promote the comprehensive progress of party building.

The CPC Central Committee stresses that our party comes from the people, takes root in the people, and serves the people, and once it is separated from the masses, it will lose its vitality, and comprehensively and strictly administering the party must start with the problem of work style that the masses of the people have strongly resented. The CPC Central Committee has broken through the problem of formulating and implementing the eight regulations of the CPC Central Committee, insisted on starting with the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and the leading cadres, and improved the work style at the above rate. The Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee convenes an annual meeting on democratic life to listen to reports on the implementation of the eight provisions, and to carry out criticism and self-criticism. The CPC Central Committee has carried forward the spirit of nailing, persistently rectified the "four winds," opposed the idea of privilege and the phenomenon of privilege, vigorously put a brake on unhealthy trends such as giving gifts at public expense, eating and drinking at public expense, traveling at public expense, and extravagance and waste, resolved the conspicuous problems that the masses strongly resented and harmed the interests of the masses, promoted the reduction of burdens on the grassroots units, advocated diligence and thrift, and opposed extravagance and waste, stopped some unhealthy tendencies that were considered impossible to stop in the past, and rectified some stubborn diseases that had not been eliminated for many years.

The party has always stressed that the whole party must have firm ideals and convictions, a strict organizational system, and strict discipline and rules. The belief in Marxism, the lofty ideal of communism, and the common ideal of socialism with Chinese characteristics are the spiritual pillar and political soul of the Chinese Communists, as well as the ideological foundation for maintaining the unity and unity of the Party. The CPC Central Committee stresses that ideals and convictions are the spiritual "calcium" of communists, and if communists do not have ideals and convictions, they will be spiritually "deficient in calcium" and will suffer from "hypochondriasis," which will inevitably lead to political degeneration, economic greed, moral degeneration, and corruption in life. The party adheres to the ideological building of the party and the system of governing the party in the same direction, and has successively carried out the party's mass line education and practice activities, "strict self-cultivation, strict use of power, strict self-discipline, practical work, entrepreneurship, and real life" special education, "learn the party constitution and party rules, learn a series of speeches, and be a qualified party member" learning and education, "do not forget the original intention, remember the mission" theme education, party history learning and education, etc., arm the whole party with the party's innovative theories, promote the construction of a learning political party, and educate and guide the majority of party members and cadres, especially leading cadres, to clean up the source ideologically. Consolidate the foundation and cultivate the yuan, build a solid foundation of faith, replenish the spiritual calcium, stabilize the rudder of thought, maintain the political nature of the Communists, and stand up the spiritual backbone of the Communists. The party put forward and implements the party's organizational line in the new era, clarifies the standards for good cadres in the new era of firm beliefs, serving the people, being diligent and pragmatic, daring to take responsibility, and being honest and honest, highlighting the requirements of political quality, establishing a correct orientation for employing people, insisting on having both ability and political integrity, putting morality first, insisting on appointing people on the basis of merit, insisting on career-oriented, fair and upright, insisting on not only votes, not only points, not only gross domestic product, not only age, not engaging in "sea push" and "sea election", strengthening the leadership and gatekeeping role of party organizations, and correcting unhealthy trends in selecting and employing people. The party requires leading cadres at all levels to solve the problem of the "general switch" of world outlook, outlook on life, and values, cherish power, manage power well, use power prudently, consciously accept supervision from all sides, and always think of sharing worries for the party, dedicating themselves to the country, and bringing benefits to the people. The Party adheres to the principle of the Party's management of talents, implements a more active, open and effective talent policy, deeply implements the strategy of strengthening the country with talents in the new era, accelerates the construction of the world's important talent centers and innovation highlands, and gathers talents from all over the world to use them. The Party continues to improve the organizational system, focusing on improving organizational strength, enhancing the political and organizational functions of Party organizations, establishing a clear orientation of focusing on the grassroots, and promoting the full coverage of Party organizations and Party work. The party adheres to the principle that discipline is stricter than the law and that discipline and law enforcement are carried out, and the "four forms" of supervision and discipline enforcement are well used, political discipline and organizational discipline are strengthened, and all disciplines are comprehensively stricter. The party adheres to the rule of the party, strictly abides by the party constitution, forms a relatively perfect system of intra-party laws and regulations, strictly implements the system, and significantly improves the scientific, institutionalized and standardized level of party building.

The CPC Central Committee stresses that corruption is the greatest threat to the party's long-term rule, and that the fight against corruption is a major political struggle that we cannot afford to lose and must never lose; if we do not offend hundreds or thousands of corrupt elements, we must offend the 1.4 billion people, and we must put power in the cage of the system, and set power, regulate power, restrain power, and supervise power in accordance with discipline and law. The Party adheres to the principle of not daring to be corrupt, not being able to be corrupt, and not wanting to be corrupt, and making concerted efforts to punish and deter, restrain the system, and raise consciousness, so as to ensure that the power given by the Party and the people is always used to seek happiness for the people. Adhere to no forbidden areas, full coverage, zero tolerance, adhere to heavy containment, strong pressure, and long-term deterrence, insist on investigating bribery and bribery together, insist that all cases must be investigated, and corruption must be punished, and the determination to use fierce medicine to cure scabies and re-enforce chaos is the determination to scrape bones to cure poison and break the wrist of a strong man, and unswervingly "fight tigers", "swatting flies" and "hunting foxes". We must resolutely rectify the problem of corruption among the masses, carry out in-depth international pursuit of fugitives and stolen goods, and eliminate all corrupt elements. The Party focused on corruption cases where political and economic issues were intertwined, prevented the formation of interest groups within the Party, and investigated and dealt with cases of serious violations of discipline and law such as Zhou Yongkang, Bo Xilai, Sun Zhengcai, and Ling Jihua. The Party leads the improvement of the Party and state supervision system, promotes the establishment of the State Supervision Commission and local supervision commissions at all levels, builds a pattern of linkage between inspections and inspections, builds a mechanism with intra-Party supervision as the leading and all types of supervision in coordination and strengthens the restraint and supervision of the exercise of power.

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, through resolute struggle, the role of political guidance and political guarantee in comprehensively and strictly governing the party has been brought into full play, the party's ability to self-purify, self-improve, self-innovate and self-improve has been significantly enhanced, the situation of lax and soft governance of the party has been fundamentally reversed, the anti-corruption struggle has won an overwhelming victory and has been comprehensively consolidated, and the serious hidden dangers existing within the party, the state and the army have been eliminated, and the party has become stronger in the revolutionary forging.

(3) In economic construction

After the reform and opening up, the party grasped the central task of economic construction, led the people to immerse themselves in hard work, and created a miracle of rapid economic development, and the country's economic strength jumped by a large margin. At the same time, due to the problems of one-sided pursuit of speed and scale and extensive development mode in some localities and departments, coupled with the impact of the continued downturn in the world economy after the international financial crisis, structural and institutional contradictions in the economy have been accumulating, and the problems of unbalanced, uncoordinated, and unsustainable development are very prominent. The CPC Central Committee proposed that China's economic development has entered a new normal, and has shifted from a high-speed growth stage to a high-quality development stage. The CPC Central Committee stressed that the implementation of the new development concept is a profound change related to the overall development of our country, and we must not simply judge the hero by the GDP growth rate, but must realize high-quality development in which innovation becomes the primary driving force, coordination becomes an endogenous feature, green becomes a universal form, openness becomes the only way, and sharing becomes the fundamental purpose, so as to promote the transformation of economic development quality, efficiency and power.

The Party has strengthened strategic planning and unified leadership over economic work, and improved the system and mechanism for the Party's leadership over economic work.

At the same time, the construction of ecological civilization is still an obvious shortcoming, and the problems of tightening resource and environmental constraints and ecosystem degradation are becoming more and more prominent, especially the high incidence of various environmental pollution and ecological damage, which has become a pain to the land and people's livelihood. If we do not get a good grasp of reversing the trend of ecological and environmental deterioration, we will inevitably pay an extremely heavy price. The CPC Central Committee stressed that the construction of ecological civilization is a fundamental plan related to the sustainable development of the Chinese nation, and that protecting the ecological environment is to protect the productive forces, and improving the ecological environment is to develop the productive forces, and never to sacrifice the environment in exchange for temporary economic growth.

Entering a new era, China is facing a more severe national security situation, with unprecedented external pressures, traditional and non-traditional security threats intertwined, and "black swan" and "gray rhinoceros" incidents occurring from time to time. Compared with the requirements of the situation and tasks, China's ability to safeguard national security is insufficient, its ability to respond to various major risks is not strong, and the overall planning and coordination mechanism for safeguarding national security is not perfect.

At the same time, for a period of time, under the influence of various complex internal and external factors, the activities of "opposing China and destabilizing Hong Kong" were rampant, and the situation in Hong Kong was once grim. The CPC Central Committee stresses the need to comprehensively, accurately and unswervingly implement the principle of "one country, two systems", uphold and improve the institutional system of "one country, two systems", uphold the rule of law in Hong Kong and Macao, safeguard the constitutional order of the SAR as determined by the Constitution and the Basic Law, implement the central government's overall jurisdiction over the SAR and firmly implement "patriots administering Hong Kong" and "patriots administering Macao".

The Central People's Government shall establish the Office for the Preservation of National Security in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region in accordance with law, and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region shall establish a Committee for the Preservation of National Security in accordance with law. The central government firmly supports the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region in stopping violence and disorder and restoring order in accordance with the law, supports the Chief Executive and the SAR government in governing in accordance with the law, resolutely prevents and curbs external forces from interfering in Hong Kong and Macao affairs, and severely cracks down on separatist, subversive, infiltration and sabotage activities. We will fully support Hong Kong and Macao in better integrating into the overall development of the country, build the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area with high quality, support Hong Kong and Macao in developing their economies and improving people's livelihood, and enhance the national awareness and patriotic spirit of Hong Kong and Macao compatriots. This series of measures to address both the symptoms and the root causes has promoted a major turning point in the situation in Hong Kong from chaos to order, and laid a solid foundation for promoting the rule of law in Hong Kong and Macao, and promoting the steady and successful implementation of "one country, two systems".

Resolving the Taiwan issue and realizing the complete reunification of the motherland is the party's unswerving historical task, the common aspiration of all Chinese people, and the inevitable requirement for realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. The party has grasped the changes of the times in cross-strait relations, enriched and developed the theory of national reunification and the principles and policies on Taiwan, and promoted the development of cross-strait relations in the right direction. Comrade Xi Jinping put forward a series of important concepts and major policy proposals on Taiwan work, forming the Party's overall strategy for resolving the Taiwan issue in the new era. We have promoted the realization of the first meeting between leaders of the two sides of the strait since 1949 and direct dialogue and communication between leaders of the two sides of the strait. The Party adheres to the concept of "one family on both sides of the strait", promotes the peaceful development of cross-strait relations, promulgates a series of policies that benefit the vast number of Taiwan compatriots, and strengthens cross-strait economic and cultural exchanges and cooperation. Since 2016, the Taiwan authorities have stepped up their "Taiwan independence" separatist activities, which has seriously impacted the momentum of peaceful development of cross-strait relations. We adhere to the one-China principle and the "92 Consensus," resolutely oppose "Taiwan independence" separatist acts, resolutely oppose interference by external forces, and firmly grasp the dominance and initiative in cross-strait relations. The time and situation of the complete reunification of the motherland have always been on our side.

Practice has proven that with the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China, the strong support of the great motherland, and the concerted efforts of the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country, including the compatriots in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, the Macao Special Administrative Region, and Taiwan, the long-term prosperity and stability of Hong Kong and Macao will certainly be maintained, and the complete reunification of the motherland will certainly be realized.

(13) In diplomatic work

Since the reform and opening up, the Party has adhered to an independent foreign policy of peace, created a favorable external environment for China's development, and made major contributions to the cause of human progress. In the new era, the international balance of power has been profoundly adjusted, unilateralism, protectionism, hegemonism and power politics have increased their threats to world peace and development, and the trend of anti-globalization has risen, and the world has entered a period of turbulence and change. The CPC Central Committee stressed that in the face of the complex and severe international situation and unprecedented external risks and challenges, it is necessary to coordinate the overall domestic and international situations, improve the party's leadership system and mechanism for foreign affairs, strengthen the top-level design of foreign affairs, make strategic plans for major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics, promote the construction of a new type of international relations, promote the building of a community with a shared future for mankind, promote the common values of peace, development, fairness, justice, democracy and freedom, and lead the trend of human progress.

The Party grasps the overall situation of diplomatic work in the new era, closely follows the main line of serving national rejuvenation and promoting human progress, holds high the banner of peace, development, cooperation and win-win results, promotes and improves the all-round, multi-level and three-dimensional diplomatic layout, and actively develops global partnerships. We have managed relations among major countries and promoted coordination and cooperation among major countries. In accordance with the concept of amity, sincerity, benefit and tolerance and the policy of neighborly diplomacy of goodwill and partnership with neighbors, we will deepen relations with neighboring countries, stabilize the strategic support of neighbors, and build a community with a shared future for neighbors. Adhering to the correct concept of justice and shared interests and the concept of sincerity, sincerity, amity and sincerity, we will strengthen solidarity and cooperation with developing countries, and achieve full coverage of the overall cooperation mechanism. The Party maintains regular contacts with more than 500 political parties and political organizations in the world and deepens exchanges and cooperation between political parties. In order to adapt to the new situation of "going out", we have continuously improved the overseas interest protection system, and effectively responded to a series of overseas interest risk challenges.

China actively participates in the reform and construction of the global governance system, upholds the international system with the United Nations at its core, the international order based on international law, and the basic norms governing international relations based on the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, upholds and practices true multilateralism, resolutely opposes unilateralism, protectionism, hegemonism and power politics, and actively promotes economic globalization in a more open, inclusive, inclusive, balanced and win-win direction. China has participated constructively in the political settlement of international and regional hotspot issues, and has played an active role in climate change, poverty alleviation, counter-terrorism, cyber security and regional security. China has carried out international cooperation in the fight against the novel coronavirus pneumonia epidemic, launched the largest global emergency humanitarian operation since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and provided material assistance, medical support, vaccine assistance and cooperation to many countries, especially developing countries, demonstrating its image as a responsible major country.

Through sustained efforts, major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics has been comprehensively promoted, and the building of a community with a shared future for mankind has become a clear banner leading the trend of the times and the direction of human progress.

In short, since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core has led the whole Party, the whole army, and the people of all ethnic groups in the country to forge ahead, and the goal of building a moderately prosperous society in all respects has been achieved as scheduled. The Communist Party of China and the Chinese people have solemnly declared to the world with heroic and tenacious struggle that the Chinese nation has ushered in a great leap from standing up, getting rich, and becoming strong.

5. The historical significance of the CPC's centennial struggle

Over the past 100 years, the Party has always fulfilled its original mission, united and led the people of all ethnic groups across the country to paint a magnificent picture in the history of human development, and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation has shown an unprecedented bright future.

(1) The party's 100-year struggle has fundamentally changed the future and destiny of the Chinese people. After modern times, the Chinese people were deeply oppressed by the three mountains and were humiliated as the "sick man of East Asia" by the Western powers. Over the past 100 years, the party has led the people through a magnificent great struggle, the Chinese people have completely shaken off the fate of being bullied, oppressed and enslaved, and have become the masters of the country, society and their own destiny; people's democracy has continued to develop, more than 1.4 billion people have achieved a well-off life in an all-round way, and the Chinese people's yearning for a better life has constantly become a reality. Today, the Chinese people are more confident, self-reliant, and self-reliant, greatly enhancing their ambition, backbone, and confidence, and the powerful energy accumulated in the course of history has fully burst out, giving full play to the unprecedented spirit of historical initiative and historical creation, and is confidently writing the great history of China's development in the new era.

(2) The Party's centennial struggle has opened up the right path to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Since modern times, the Chinese nation, which has created a splendid civilization, has encountered a profound crisis in which it is difficult to sustain its civilization, and what has appeared in front of the world is a scene of decay and withering. Over the past 100 years, the Party has led the people in unremitting struggle and continuous progress, and has successfully opened up the right path to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. China has gone from being fragmented and scattered to a high degree of reunification and national unity, from being poor and weak and poor to being well-off, prosperous and strong in all respects, and from being passively beaten and bullied to being independent and self-confident, and has completed the industrialization process that developed countries have gone through for hundreds of years in just a few decades, creating two miracles of rapid economic development and long-term social stability. Today, the Chinese nation shows the world a thriving atmosphere, standing majestically in the east of the world.

(3) The party's centennial struggle has demonstrated the strong vitality of Marxism. Marxism reveals the law of the development of human society and is a scientific truth for understanding and transforming the world. At the same time, upholding and developing Marxism requires extremely arduous and challenging efforts by Marxists all over the world from theory to practice. Over the past 100 years, the Party has insisted on writing Marxism on its banner, constantly promoting the Sinicization of Marxism and the modernization of Marxism, absorbing all the outstanding achievements of civilization created by mankind with a broad mind, and guiding the great practice with the scientific theory of Sinicization of Marxism. The scientific nature and truth of Marxism have been fully tested in China, the people's nature and practical nature of Marxism have been fully implemented in China, and the openness and contemporary nature of Marxism have been fully demonstrated in China. The continuous success of the Sinicization and modernization of Marxism has enabled Marxism to be displayed in the world with a brand-new image, and has brought about a major change in the historical evolution and contest between the two ideologies and social systems of socialism and capitalism in the world, as well as in favor of socialism.

(4) The Party's centennial struggle has profoundly affected the course of world history. The cause of the party and the people is an important part of the cause of human progress. Over the past 100 years, the party has not only sought happiness for the Chinese people and rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, but also sought progress for mankind and the common good of the world, and profoundly changed the trend and pattern of world development with unremitting struggle for self-improvement. The Party has led the people to successfully embark on the path of Chinese-style modernization, created a new form of human civilization, expanded the path for developing countries to modernize, and provided a new choice for countries and nations in the world that wish to accelerate development while maintaining their independence. The Party has contributed its wisdom, solutions and strength to the building of a community with a shared future for mankind and to solving major human problems and building an open, inclusive, clean and beautiful world with lasting peace, universal security and common prosperity, and has become an important force for promoting human development and progress.

(5) The Party's centennial struggle has forged the Communist Party of China (CPC), which is at the forefront of the times. The party had just over 50 members when it was founded, but today it has become the world's largest ruling party with more than 95 million members, leading a country with a population of more than 1.4 billion and great global influence. Over the past 100 years, the party has adhered to its nature and purpose, adhered to its ideals and beliefs, adhered to its original aspiration and mission, had the courage to carry out self-revolution, withstood all kinds of risks and tests and made great sacrifices in the struggle of life and death and arduous struggle, tempered its distinctive political character, formed a spiritual lineage with the great spirit of party building as its source, maintained the party's advanced nature and purity, continuously improved the party's ruling ability and leadership level, and is leading the Chinese people irreversibly toward the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation on the road of socialism with Chinese characteristics.

6. The historical experience of the Communist Party of China over the past century

Over the past 100 years, the party has led the people in carrying out great struggles, making breakthroughs in the course of forging ahead, rising up in the face of setbacks, improving through summing up, and accumulating valuable historical experience.

(1) Adhere to the party's leadership. The Communist Party of China (CPC) is the core force leading our cause. The most fundamental reason why the people of Chinese and the Chinese nation have been able to reverse their historical destiny since modern times and achieve today's great achievements is the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China. Both history and reality have proved that without the Communist Party of China, there would have been no New China and no great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. To govern our world's largest political party and the most populous country well, we must uphold the party's overall leadership, especially the centralized and unified leadership of the party Central Committee, uphold democratic centralism, and ensure that the party always controls the overall situation and coordinates all parties. As long as we unswervingly uphold the party's overall leadership, resolutely safeguard the party's core and the authority of the party Central Committee, give full play to the party's political superiority, and implement the party's leadership in all fields and all aspects of the cause of the party and the country, we will certainly be able to ensure that the whole party, the whole army, and the people of all nationalities in the country will advance in unity.

(2) Adhere to the supremacy of the people. The party's foundation is in the people, its blood is in the people, and its strength is in the people, and the people are the party's greatest confidence in governing and rejuvenating the country. The will of the people is the greatest politics, and justice is the strongest force. The party's greatest political advantage is its close ties with the masses, and the greatest danger after the party takes power is its separation from the masses. The party represents the fundamental interests of the broadest masses of the Chinese people, does not have any special interests of its own, and has never represented the interests of any interest group, any powerful group, or any privileged stratum. As long as we always adhere to the fundamental purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly, adhere to the party's mass line, always remember that the rivers and mountains are the people and the people are the rivers and mountains, persist in doing everything for the people and relying on the people, persist in ruling for the people and relying on the people, persist in developing for the people, relying on the people for development, and sharing the fruits of development with the people, and unswervingly follow the road of common prosperity for all the people, we will certainly be able to lead the people to win new and greater victories in socialism with Chinese characteristics, and anyone who wants to separate the CPC from the Chinese peopleAttempts to oppose each other will never succeed.

(3) Persist in theoretical innovation. Marxism is the fundamental guiding ideology for us to build the party and the country and to rejuvenate the party and strengthen the country. Marxist theory is not a dogma but a guide to action, which must develop along with the development of practice, and must be Sinicized in order to take root and localized in order to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The fundamental reason why the party has been able to lead the people to accomplish the arduous tasks that are impossible for other political forces in China in the course of repeated explorations, setbacks, and explorations is that it persists in emancipating the mind, seeking truth from facts, advancing with the times, seeking truth and being pragmatic, persists in integrating the basic tenets of Marxism with China's specific realities and with China's excellent traditional culture, insists that practice is the only criterion for testing truth, persists in proceeding from reality in everything, and answers the questions of the times and the people in a timely manner. Continuously promote the Sinicization of Marxism and the modernization of Marxism. Comrade Xi Jinping pointed out that the great social transformation in contemporary China is not a simple continuation of the master version of China's history and culture, not a simple application of the template conceived by the writers of Marxist classics, not a reprint of the socialist practice of other countries, nor a copy of the modernization development of foreign countries. As long as we have the courage to continuously promote theoretical innovation in the light of new practice and be good at using new theories to guide new practice, we will certainly be able to make Marxism display a stronger and more convincing force of truth on the land of China.

(4) Adhere to independence and self-determination. Independence is the soul of the Chinese nation and an important principle for building the party and the country. Taking one's own path is a historical conclusion drawn by the party over the past 100 years of struggle. The party has always adhered to the principle of independence and self-determination in blazing a trail of progress, insisted on putting the development of the country and the nation on the basis of its own strength, and insisted that China's affairs must be advocated and handled by the Chinese people themselves. No nation or country in the history of mankind can become strong and rejuvenated by relying on external forces, copying foreign models, and following in the footsteps of others. The result of doing so is either inevitable defeat or inevitably becoming a vassal of others. As long as we persist in being independent and self-reliant, humbly learn from the beneficial experiences of foreign countries, strengthen our national self-esteem and self-confidence, and do not believe in evil or fear pressure, we will certainly be able to firmly grasp the destiny of China's development and progress in our own hands.

(5) Adhere to China's path. The direction determines the path, and the road determines the destiny. In the course of a century of struggle, the Party has always adhered to the principle of proceeding from China's national conditions and exploring and forming a correct path that is in line with China's reality. 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. By stepping on the land of China, inheriting the Chinese civilization, and taking the correct path in line with China's national conditions, the party and the people will have an incomparably broad stage, an incomparably profound historical heritage, and an incomparably strong determination to move forward. As long as we do not follow the old road of being closed and rigid, nor do we follow the evil road of changing our banner, and unswervingly follow the road of socialism with Chinese characteristics, we will certainly be able to build our country into a prosperous, strong, democratic, civilized, harmonious, and beautiful modern socialist country.

(6) Insist on keeping the world in mind. The road trip, the world is public. The Party has always been concerned about the future and destiny of mankind from a global perspective, correctly understood and handled its relations with the outside world from the perspective of the general trend of human development, the general pattern of world changes and the great history of China's development, adhered to openness and not closedness, adhered to mutual benefit and win-win results, and did not engage in zero-sum games, insisted on upholding fairness and justice, and stood on the right side of history and the side of human progress. As long as we adhere to the path of peaceful development, develop ourselves through safeguarding world peace and maintain world peace through our own development, and advance hand in hand with all progressive forces in the world, without relying on others, without plundering others, and never seeking hegemony, we will certainly be able to continue to contribute wisdom and strength to the progress of human civilization and work together with the people of all countries in the world to push the wheel of history forward towards a bright future.

(7) Persist in pioneering and innovating. Innovation is an inexhaustible driving force for the development and progress of a country and a nation. The greater the cause, the more full of difficulties and obstacles, the more arduous struggle, the more pioneering and innovative. The party has led the people to overcome obstacles, seek from top to bottom, strive to open up, forge ahead, and constantly promote innovation in theory, practice, system, culture and other aspects, dare to be the first in the world, and have walked out of the road that no one has walked out of, and no difficulties and obstacles have stopped the pace of progress of the party and the people. As long as we conform to the trend of the times, respond to the demands of the people, have the courage to promote reform, accurately recognize changes, respond scientifically, take the initiative to seek changes, and never ossify or stagnate, we will certainly be able to create more impressive miracles in the world.

(8) Persist in daring to struggle. Courage to struggle and victory is an invincible and powerful spiritual force for the party and the people. All the achievements made by the party and the people did not fall from the sky or were given by others, but were achieved through constant struggle. For the sake of the people, the country, the nation, and ideals and beliefs, no matter how strong the enemy, how difficult and dangerous the road is, and how severe the challenges, the party will never be afraid, will never retreat, will not be afraid of sacrifice, and will not be indomitable. So long as we grasp the historical characteristics of the new great struggle, seize and make good use of the historical opportunity, play a good game of chess, take the initiative, carry forward the spirit of struggle, enhance our fighting ability, and unite the will and strength of the whole party and the people of the whole country, we will certainly be able to overcome all foreseeable and unforeseeable risks and challenges.

(9) Adhere to the united front. Unity is strength. The establishment of the broadest united front is an important magic weapon for the party to defeat the enemy and win victories, as well as an important magic weapon for the party to govern and rejuvenate the country. The Party has always adhered to the principle of great unity and great alliance, united all forces that can be united, mobilized all positive factors that can be mobilized, promoted harmonious relations between political parties, ethnic groups, religions, classes, and compatriots at home and abroad, and gathered the strength of common struggle to the greatest extent. As long as we continue to consolidate and develop the great unity of all ethnic groups, the great unity of the people of the whole country, and the great unity of all the sons and daughters of the Chinese nation, forge a strong sense of community of the Chinese nation, and form a vivid situation in which all the sons and daughters of the Chinese nation at home and abroad think together and work together, we will certainly be able to gather the majestic force to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

(10) Persist in self-revolution. The courage to self-revolution is a distinctive mark that distinguishes the Communist Party of China from other political parties. The spirit of self-revolution is a strong support for the party to maintain its youthful vitality. An advanced Marxist party is not born, but has been tempered in the course of constant self-revolution. The secret of the party's vitality after a century of vicissitudes lies in always upholding the truth and correcting mistakes. The greatness of the party lies not in not making mistakes, but in never shying away from medical treatment, actively carrying out criticism and self-criticism, daring to face problems head-on, and having the courage to revolutionize itself. As long as we continue to eliminate all factors that undermine the party's advanced nature and purity, and constantly eliminate all viruses that erode the party's healthy body, we will certainly be able to ensure that the party will not degenerate, change its color, or change its taste, and that the party will always become a strong core of leadership in the historical process of upholding and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.

The above 10 aspects are the valuable experience accumulated through long-term practice and the spiritual wealth jointly created by the party and the people, which must be cherished and adhered to for a long time, and constantly enriched and developed in the practice of the new era.

7. The Communist Party of China in the New Era

Don't forget the original intention, you have to always. The Communist Party of China (CPC) is committed to the great cause of the Chinese nation. Over the past 100 years, the party has delivered an excellent answer sheet to the people and to history. Now, the party has united and led the Chinese people to embark on a new road to catch up with the examination to achieve the second centenary goal. The times are the people who produce the papers, we are the respondents, and the people are the people who read the papers. We must continue to achieve good results in the examination and show new achievements in the new era and new journey.

The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) made strategic arrangements for the realization of the second centenary goal in two stages. From 2020 to 2035, China will basically realize socialist modernization, and from 2035 to the middle of this century, China will be built into a great modern socialist country. At that time, China's material, political, spiritual, social and ecological civilization will be comprehensively improved, the national governance system and governance capacity will be modernized, and it will become a leading country in terms of comprehensive national strength and international influence, the common prosperity of all the people will be basically realized, the Chinese people will enjoy a happier and healthier life, and the Chinese nation will stand tall among the nations of the world with a more high-spirited attitude.

Today, we are closer to the goal of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and more confident and capable than at any other time in history. At the same time, the whole party must be soberly aware that the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is by no means easy and can be achieved by beating gongs and drums, and there are still various risks and challenges that can be predicted and unforeseen on the way forward. We must be soberly aware that China is still in the primary stage of socialism and will remain so for a long time, that China is still the largest developing country in the world, and that the main contradiction in society is the contradiction between the people's ever-growing needs for a better life and unbalanced and inadequate development. The whole party should keep in mind the fundamental question of what the Communist Party of China is and what it wants to do, grasp the general trend of historical development, strengthen ideals and beliefs, keep in mind the original aspiration and mission, always be modest and prudent, not arrogant or rash, and work hard, inspire the strength to forge ahead from the great victory, learn historical lessons from the detours and setbacks, not be afraid of any risks, not be confused by any interference, never make subversive mistakes on fundamental issues, and strive to achieve the set goals with unrelenting perseverance. With the sobriety of those who have traveled a hundred miles, we will unremittingly promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

The whole Party must adhere to Marxism-Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory, the important thinking of the "Three Represents" and the Scientific Outlook on Development, fully implement Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, observe, grasp and lead the times with Marxist standpoints, viewpoints and methods, and constantly deepen the understanding of the laws governing the Communist Party, socialist construction and the development of human society. We must adhere to the party's basic theory, basic line, and basic strategy, enhance the "four consciousnesses", strengthen the "four self-confidences", achieve the "two maintenances", adhere to the system concept, coordinate and promote the overall layout of the "five-in-one", coordinate the promotion of the "four comprehensive" strategic layout, based on the new stage of development, implement the new development concept, build a new development pattern, promote high-quality development, comprehensively deepen reform and opening up, promote common prosperity, promote self-reliance and self-improvement in science and technology, develop whole-process people's democracy, and ensure that the people are the masters of the country. Adhere to the rule of law in an all-round way, adhere to the socialist core value system, adhere to the protection and improvement of people's livelihood in the process of development, adhere to the harmonious coexistence of man and nature, coordinate development and security, accelerate the modernization of national defense and the armed forces, and work together to promote the prosperity of the people, the strength of the country and the beauty of China.

The whole party must always maintain flesh-and-blood ties with the people, stand firmly on the people's position, adhere to the people's dominant position, respect the people's initiative, practice the people-centered development philosophy, safeguard social fairness and justice, strive to solve the problems of unbalanced and inadequate development and the problems of the people's urgency, hardship and longing, constantly realize, safeguard and develop the fundamental interests of the broadest masses of the people, and unite and lead the people of all ethnic groups across the country to continuously strive for a better life.

The whole party must bear in mind that it was born in adversity and died in peace, always have foresight and be prepared for danger in times of peace, continue to push forward the new great project of party building in the new era, persist in comprehensively and strictly administering the party, unswervingly promote the building of a clean and honest party style and the struggle against corruption, bravely face the tests of long-term governance, reform and opening up, market economy, and external environment facing the party, and resolutely overcome the dangers of mental slackness, lack of ability, detachment from the masses, and passivity and corruption. We must maintain the heroic spirit of moving forward in the face of difficulties and dangers, dare to struggle, be good at fighting, open roads in the mountains and build bridges in the face of water, so that it is difficult and unstoppable, and promote the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics to cut through the waves and move forward with indomitable determination.

The development of the cause of the party and the people requires the continuous struggle of the Chinese communists from generation to generation, and we must grasp the fundamental plan of having successors. We must persist in educating people with Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, unite people with the party's ideals and beliefs, cultivate people with the core values of socialism, inspire people with the historical mission of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and cultivate a large number of successors who are worthy of the important tasks of the times. It is necessary to continuously cultivate and select high-quality professional cadres, especially outstanding young cadres, who have both ability and political integrity, loyalty, cleanliness and responsibility, educate and guide the majority of party members and cadres to consciously be firm believers and faithful practitioners of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, keep in mind the truth that empty talk is misleading the country and hard work is prosperous, and establish a sense of family and country that lives up to the people's feelings for the country and pursues a lofty ideological realm, and strengthens the ability to take responsibility. It is necessary to continuously recruit advanced elements from all walks of life, especially outstanding young people, into the party, educate and guide young party members to always take the party's banner as the banner, the party's direction as the direction, and the party's will as the will, continue the party's red blood, carry forward the party's fine traditions, and endure trials and hardships, see the world, strengthen their bones, and develop their abilities in the struggle. It is necessary to continuously cultivate and bring up outstanding talents who are patriotic, dedicated, and brave in innovation, sincerely love talents, carefully cultivate talents, and meticulously use talents, and gather outstanding talents from all walks of life into the great struggle of the party and the people.

The Party Central Committee called on the whole Party, the whole army, and the people of all ethnic groups in the country to unite more closely around the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core, fully implement Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, vigorously carry forward the great spirit of party building, never forget the suffering and glory of yesterday, be worthy of today's mission, live up to the great dream of tomorrow, take history as a mirror, create the future, work hard, move forward bravely, and make unremitting efforts to realize the second centenary goal and the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. We firmly believe that the Communist Party of China and the Chinese people, who have won great victories and glory in the past 100 years, will surely win even greater victories and glory in the new era and new journey!
