Editor's note:

"Contemporary Chinese youth are a generation that walks in the same direction and advances together with the new era. They are born in a prosperous age and shoulder heavy responsibilities." General Secretary Xi Jinping attaches importance to, cares for, and trusts youth.

The general secretary was with the youth, there was laughter, touch, and many beautiful singing voices.

　　On the occasion of the May Fourth Youth Day, CCTV's "People's Leader Xi Jinping" column launched the "Song of Youth" series of reports, revisiting the warm-hearted interaction between the General Secretary and young friends, and feeling the power of youth!

　　"My motherland and I cannot be separated for a moment. No matter where I go, I will leave a hymn..."

　　On January 17, 2019, General Secretary Xi Jinping, who was inspecting in Tianjin, made a special trip to Nankai University to visit teachers and students.

Before leaving, thousands of Nankai teachers and students who were guarding the campus square sang this song spontaneously. The singing was like waves, and the slogans of "Love China" and "Rejuvenate China" were higher than the other.

General Secretary Xi Jinping waved to everyone frequently.

　　"I was very excited at the time and wanted to express to the General Secretary our contemporary youth's patriotic heart and ambition to serve the country." Some young students described the situation at that time in this way.

　　The singing voice is affectionate and the slogan is inspiring, seeming to firmly respond to the "three questions about patriotism" mentioned by the general secretary that day——

"Are you Chinese?"

"Do you love China?"

"Would you like China?"

　　On September 17, 1935, facing a poor and weak country, the old principal Zhang Boling put forward the "three questions about patriotism" at the "opening ceremony" of the new school year in Nankai, which carried the Chinese people's ideals of saving the country at that time, and was embarrassing.

　　Traveling through time and space, the simple and heavy three questions still contain infinite power.

　　During this visit to Nankai, General Secretary Xi Jinping gave a very high evaluation of the "Three Questions about Patriotism". He said: "This is not only a question of history, but also a question of the times and the future. We must do this well. "

　　On January 17, 2019, Xi Jinping waved to students at Nankai University.

　　A century of Nankai history has condensed the spirit and integrity of the Chinese nation.

At the Nankai University School History Exhibition Hall, General Secretary Xi Jinping stopped to look at and think in front of pictures and historical materials.

"Our ambition for Xin Nankai is nothing more than the second language of'knowing China' and'serving China'." The general secretary chanted softly, and said bluntly, "Well said!"

　　He encouraged everyone: "The opening of Nankai University was for the Chinese nation to stand up and cultivate talents. We are now ushering in the stage from standing up, getting rich to becoming strong, and we must align the specific goals of learning with the grand rejuvenation of the nation. Combine goals and strive for them."

　　Young people have different life goals and career choices.

General Secretary Xi Jinping believes that only by integrating one's own ego into the big ego of the motherland and the big ego of the people, keeping pace with the times and sharing the destiny with the people, can we better realize the value of life and enhance the realm of life.

　　Along the way, the general secretary’s words and deeds have vividly interpreted this.

　　When the educated youth went to the countryside when he was 15 years old, he went to one of the most difficult places; when he was 21 years old, he worked as the secretary of the brigade in Liangjiahe and led the villagers to build the first biogas digester in Shaanxi Province; when he was 25 years old, he graduated from Tsinghua University and put on The military uniform entered the work of the General Office of the Central Military Commission. Three years later, he voluntarily applied for transfer to the grassroots level. The locals said: "During the few years that Secretary Xi worked in Zhengding, the changes in Zhengding have been very big... the living standards of the people have improved significantly."

　　A young man sighed: "The general secretary is our role model and life mentor, and his personal growth experience has brought endless motivation for our learning and growth.

　　On April 19, 2021, Xi Jinping came to Tsinghua University for inspection.

　　General Secretary Xi Jinping attaches importance to youth, cares for youth, and trusts youth.

　　"Post-70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, before they go out to see the world, China can already look at the world, and it's not as'earth' as ​​we were back then..." the general secretary said during the National Two Sessions this year This sentence resonated countless.

　　Today, Chinese youth in the new era are in the best period of the development of the Chinese nation. They are faced with the rare life experience of making contributions and careers, and they are also facing the mission of the times of "Heaven will descend to the people of Sri Lanka".

　　"Post-80s" Huang Wenxiu gave up job opportunities in big cities after graduating from graduate school, put his feet in the soil of his hometown, and helped 418 people from 88 households in the village get rid of poverty during his 1 year and 82 days as the first secretary in the village. The incidence of poverty dropped from 22.88% to 2.71%.

General Secretary Xi Jinping praised her-"wrote the song of youth in the new era".

　　Lu Chaoyang, a member of the "Nine Chapters" quantum computing prototype development team, has kept a text message sent by his teacher many years ago-"I hope you study hard, come back soon, and contribute to the national rejuvenation!" Over the years, he has produced results one after another, and he is one of the young people at the forefront of the international quantum science field.

　　On March 23, 2020, some medical staff from Wuhan First Hospital sent off the 14th Guangdong medical team to Hubei at Wuhan Tianhe Airport.

General Secretary Xi Jinping said that the majority of young people have proved by their actions that the Chinese youth in the new era are good and worthy of great responsibility!
