(Focus Interview): The "Recommendations of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Formulating the Fourteenth Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development and Long-Term Goals for 2035", which was recently announced, outlines a beautiful picture of China in the future.

The proposed draft is based on the two-stage strategic arrangement of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China for achieving the second centenary goal, comprehensively considering the domestic and foreign development trends and my country's development conditions in the future, and firmly grasping the main social contradictions in my country. Deeply implement the new development concept, make a systematic plan and strategic deployment for my country's development during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, and put forward 12 key tasks for economic and social development and reform and opening up during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period.

So, what kind of connection is there between these 12 key tasks, and how to grasp it?

  The "Proposals" of the "14th Five-Year Plan" set out work arrangements for the 12 key tasks of economic and social development and reform and opening up during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, clarifying the areas from technological innovation, industrial development, domestic market, deepening reforms, rural revitalization, Regional development includes ideas and key tasks in key areas such as cultural construction, green development, opening to the outside world, social construction, security development, and national defense construction.

  The Fifth Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee put forward the development concept of innovation, coordination, greenness, openness and sharing.

Innovation is the first driving force for development, coordination is the inherent requirement of sustainable and healthy development, green is a necessary condition and important manifestation of sustainable development, openness is the only way for the country to prosper and develop, and sharing is the essential requirement of socialism with Chinese characteristics.

The new development concept well reflects the systematic view of economic and social development, and the 12 key tasks organized according to the connotation of the new development concept this time also fully embodies the systematic nature of economic and social development.

  Economic and social development is a large systematic project.

Adhering to the system concept is a principle that must be followed in economic and social development during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period.

After building a moderately prosperous society in all respects, we will embark on a new journey of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way. Our country’s development environment is facing profound and complex changes, the problem of inadequate development is still prominent, and the contradictions in economic and social development are complex, and we must plan and plan from a systematic perspective. Solve, comprehensively coordinate and promote work in various fields and socialist modernization.

  Among the 12 key tasks, innovation has been placed at the core of my country's modernization drive, and scientific and technological self-reliance is the support of the national development strategy, and it is placed at the top of various planning tasks, and special chapters are deployed.

This is the first time in the history of our party’s five-year plan.

  In the face of new changes in the domestic and foreign environment, we must implement new development concepts, promote high-quality development, and build a new development pattern. More than ever, we need scientific and technological innovation solutions and innovation as the first driving force.

  Constructing a new development pattern in which domestic and international double cycles are the mainstay and the mutual promotion of domestic and international cycles is a strategic choice for advancing with the times to improve my country's economic development level, and it is also a strategic choice for shaping my country's international economic cooperation and competitive advantages.

my country has a population of 1.4 billion and its per capita GDP has exceeded 10,000 US dollars. It is the world's largest and most potential consumer market with huge room for growth.

Since the reform and opening up, we have encountered many external risk shocks, and ultimately we can alleviate the dangers. What we rely on is to do our own affairs well and put our development foothold in the country.

  To build a new development pattern, we must persist in taking the expansion of domestic demand as a strategic basis, unblocking the circulation of the national economy, and opening up the blocking points in many links from production, distribution to circulation and consumption.

Breaking through the blockage point depends on deepening the supply-side structural reforms and achieving major breakthroughs in the reforms of key areas and key links.

It is necessary to strengthen key core technology research, maintain the security and stability of the industrial chain and supply chain, optimize the income distribution structure, expand the middle-income group, and promote consumption upgrading; to build a new development pattern, it is necessary to participate in the international cycle deeply, and to expand the external world at a higher level. Opening up, and these contents are covered in the 12 key tasks of economic and social development and reform and opening up during the 14th Five-Year Plan period.

  To promote high-quality development and build a new development pattern, we must firmly hold the bottom line of safe development.

In the draft proposal of the 14th Five-Year Plan, a special chapter was set up to make strategic deployments on overall development and security, speeding up national defense and military modernization, and emphasized the need to adhere to the overall national security concept, strengthen the national security system and capacity building, and strengthen national security barrier.

  During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period and beyond, my country's economic and social development will face an extremely complex international situation, and many problems to be solved will face a series of risks and challenges.

The more this happens, the more we must uphold and strengthen the party's overall leadership. This is the most important guarantee for realizing the economic and social development goals during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period.

  The proposed draft insists on coordinating the domestic and global perspectives, insisting on the unification of problem-oriented and goal-oriented, insisting on the interlinkage of medium and long-term goals and short-term goals, insisting on overall planning and coordinating highlighting key points, focusing on prominent problems and obvious shortcomings, and responding to the people Appeals and expectations.

The beginning is related to the overall situation. In the new era and new stage, we must continue to work hard, implement new development concepts, promote high-quality development, build a new development pattern, and take advantage of the situation to start a new journey of comprehensively building a modern socialist country.
