  Materialist dialectics believes that the world is universally connected and eternally developing. Contradiction is the essential content of the connection of things and the fundamental driving force for the development of things. We must persist in looking at problems from a comprehensive, connected, and developing perspective.

  The so-called "one yin and one yang means Tao", contradictions are universal. Human cognition activities and practical activities are basically the process of constantly recognizing and solving contradictions. Problems are manifestations of contradictions in things.
