Xi Jinping said that he could only feel the importance of Qilian Mountain ecological protection when he came here to see it on the ground. Qilian Mountain is an important ecological security barrier in the west of the country. This is a national strategic positioning, not a matter of self-assertion by province. The ecological protection work in Gansu reflects the requirements of the new development concept and hopes to continue to move forward.

  A Qinling Mountain, half of Chinese history. The Qinling Mountains are the climate boundary and important ecological security barrier in the north and south of China. They have many functions such as climate regulation, soil and water conservation, water conservation, and biodiversity maintenance. Qiu Ying, a painter of the Ming Dynasty, once wrote the "Ten Scenery of Wangchuan", depicting the beautiful scenery and poetic life at the foot of Qinling.

  During this inspection, Xi Jinping emphasized that the illegal construction of Qinling was a big lesson. From now on, as a cadre in Shaanxi, we must first understand this lesson, do not repeat the same mistakes, and be a guardian of Qinling's ecology.

  General Secretary Xi Jinping has always attached great importance to Qinling's ecological protection. Since the Eighteenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the General Secretary has issued six instructions on the illegal construction of villas, environmental protection and ecological issues in the northern foothills of the Qinling Mountains. "The problem spreads and spreads" "For such problems, we must hold back, grasp the end, do not completely solve, and never let go" "First, start from the investigation of political discipline, thoroughly investigate and deal with the untreated, untreated, Yang Fengyin violations, prohibition without end The problem".

  Facts have proved that it was because of General Secretary Xi Jinping's perseverance in the problem of Qinling's illegally built villas and his own hands that he began the thorough remediation of Qinling's illegally built villas in July 2018. After July 2018, more than 1,100 illegally built villas in Xi'an, north of the Qinling Mountains, were demolished according to law, and several senior leading cadres were investigated for violations of discipline and law. In this regard, the Xinhuanet article pointed out that from the prohibition without end to the prohibition of orders, from the barbaric growth of illegal villas to the lush green mountains and rivers, this is a battle for ecological protection, and it is also a battle against formalism and bureaucracy .
