  "This is the first time that China has officially announced that China has achieved a comprehensive victory in the fight against poverty." Lei Ming, Dean of the Institute for Development in Poor Areas of Peking University, said in an interview with a reporter from China News Agency on the 25th. "At the level of the goal, we have made a high-level and systematic summary of the significance, history, experience, and result codes of China's comprehensive victory in the fight against poverty, and put forward expectations and requirements for the next step to consolidate the results of the fight against poverty and fully embark on a new journey.

  Lei Ming said that the focus of Xi Jinping's speech can be expressed in four key words: "highly affirmed, sincerely thankful, systematically summarized, and put forward a request."

Highly affirmed: achievements in poverty alleviation

  Lei Ming said that Xi Jinping’s speech fully affirmed China’s achievements in poverty alleviation from the level of the "two centenary" goals: this is a human miracle that shines through the annals of history, and at the same time it is the Chinese people, the Chinese Communist Party, and the Chinese nation. Great and glorious.

It is embodied in "two contributions", "two great changes" and "one firmness".

  -"Two contributions", one is to make a key contribution to building a moderately prosperous society in all respects; the other is to contribute China's strength to the cause of global poverty reduction and a community with a shared future for mankind.

  ——"Two Great Changes", one is the historic change in the overall economic and social outlook of the poverty-stricken areas; the other is the huge changes in the living conditions and spiritual outlook of the poverty-stricken people. The living conditions of the poverty-stricken people have completely got rid of the absolute poverty under the current standards, and the spiritual outlook It also has a brand new look, and the endogenous power is significantly improved.

  ——"One firm", through party building to help the poor, strengthen the construction of the Communist Party of China's rural grassroots organizations, and strengthen the foundation of the Communist Party of China in rural areas.

Sincere thanks: tens of thousands of poverty alleviation charities

  Xi Jinping said, “We have concentrated our elite forces on the main battlefield for poverty alleviation. A total of 255,000 village task forces, more than 3 million first secretaries and village officials have been selected across the country, along with nearly 2 million township officials and millions of village officials. Fighting together on the front line of poverty alleviation, the bright red party flag has always been flying high on the main battlefield of poverty alleviation."

  Lei Ming said that in his speech, Xi Jinping used plain language to inform the country’s 255,000 village task forces, more than 3 million first secretaries and village officials, and nearly 2 million township officials, millions of village officials, and thousands of village officials. The cadres and masses who are struggling in the front line of poverty alleviation have expressed their most sincere gratitude to Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, and all regions, countries, and organizations that provide support and assistance for poverty alleviation at home and abroad.

 System summary: New China's poverty alleviation process

  Lei Ming believes that Xi Jinping’s speech systematically reviewed and summarized the original intention of eradicating poverty on the day of the founding of the Communist Party of China, to the establishment of a new China system to realize the cultivator’s land, and to reform and opening up to grasp the gradual realization of common prosperity. Poverty is the key. The entire process of poverty alleviation in New China, the realization of the goal of “one must be on the road to a comprehensive well-off” by the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, has answered the question of China's poverty alleviation.

  Lei Ming said that Xi Jinping’s speech profoundly revealed the code behind China’s world-renowned achievements in poverty alleviation, namely, the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China, the spirit of self-reliance and hard work of the Chinese nation, and the solid material accumulated since the founding of New China, especially since the reform and opening up. The foundation, the perseverance and perseverance of working from term to term, the united struggle of the whole party and the people of all ethnic groups, as well as the concerted efforts of the top and bottom, to fight with precision, precision and pragmatism, pioneering and innovative, overcoming difficulties, and living up to the people's poverty alleviation spirit.

  Lei Ming said, “It is specifically manifested in the'seven perseverances', namely, adherence to the leadership of the party, adherence to the path of common prosperity, adherence to institutional advantages, adherence to precise strategies, adherence to stimulating endogenous motivation, adherence to social poverty alleviation, adherence to truth-seeking and pragmatism", and It is clearly pointed out that this is the latest achievement of the Sinicization of Marxist anti-poverty theory, and it must be persisted for a long time and developed continuously.

Making a request: the starting point of a new struggle

  “Poverty alleviation is not the end, but the starting point for a new life and a new struggle.” “Solving the problem of unbalanced and inadequate development, narrowing the development gap between urban and rural areas, realizing the comprehensive development of people and the common prosperity of all people still have a long way to go.”

  Lei Ming said that in the new journey of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way, Xi Jinping’s speech clearly put forward two major tasks for the next step: Focusing on the goal of promoting the common prosperity of all people in a more important position, the first is to effectively consolidate. Expanding the achievements of poverty alleviation and effectively linking various tasks with rural revitalization, making the foundation for poverty alleviation more stable and more sustainable.

The second is to fully implement the rural revitalization strategy based on the new situation and requirements brought by the new development stage, the implementation of the new development concept, and the construction of the new development pattern.
