Feature: Xi Jinping leads a century-old party on a new journey
Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, November 6th (Reporters Wang Jinye, Meng Na, Xu Lingui) 2021 is the ninth year that Xi Jinping has served as the General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee.
The world's largest ruling party celebrates its 100th birthday.
Xi Jinping's schedule is as full as ever.
He delivered an important speech at the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, visited the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, two thousand kilometers away from Beijing, talked with astronauts on the space station, participated in the United Nations "cloud" conference, and had video meetings with leaders of many countries...

The "Resolution of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Major Achievements and Historical Experience of the Party's Centennial Struggle" that will be reviewed at the meeting has attracted much attention.
There are very few political parties in the world that have been established for such a long time and have been in power for such a long time.
Before Xi Jinping was elected as general secretary of the Communist Party Central Committee in November 2012, the Communist Party of China had a central leadership group with Mao Zedong, Deng Xiaoping, Jiang Zemin, and Hu Jintao as the main representatives.
Xi Jinping led the CCP into a new era and achieved its first centenary goal, which is to build a well-off society in all respects, and began to implement the ambitious new modernization program, embarking on a new journey towards the second centenary goal of comprehensive national rejuvenation. .

Xi Jinping is undoubtedly the central figure in controlling the historical trend.
How he will lead the party to fulfill the important tasks amidst opportunities and challenges, how he will lead China back to the center of the world stage, and what impact will this bring, these issues have received the same attention as when he first became the general secretary of the CPC Central Committee nine years ago.
Public opinion at home and abroad commented on Xi Jinping, saying that he is a person with firm conviction and decisive action, a person with deep thoughts and deep feelings, a person who is good at inheritance and innovation, and a person who can always grasp the overall situation and is agile to control changes. A person with strong self-control, a humble and undaunted person.
"When Xi Jinping took office in 2012, what he hoped was the realization of the'great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.' He regarded this as a historic mission." The Swiss "Daily News" reported.
Singapore NewsAsia said that under the leadership of Xi Jinping, China is becoming a powerful country and China is entering another prosperous era.
The general secretary of the party who "loves the common people like their parents"
In September, Xi Jinping went to Gaoxigou Village, Shaanxi for investigation and research.
He got off the car temporarily and walked into the field to observe the growth of millet, millet and corn, and chat with the working fellow.
Gaoxigou Village used to be a poor village, but now Tushangou has been transformed into "Small Jiangnan", and farmers have become wealthy.
This is the epitome of how thousands of rural Chinese villages have changed their old appearance through reform and opening up.
On September 13, 2021, Xi Jinping inspected and investigated in Yulin City, Shaanxi Province.

Xi Jinping joined the Communist Party of China in another village about 150 kilometers away from Gaoxigou Village.
It took him 38 years from then to become the general secretary of the CPC Central Committee.
In 1969, he was less than 16 years old to jump in the team in Liangjiahe Village, Shaanxi.
Xi Jinping later recalled that he lived in earthen kilns with his fellow villagers, ate coarse grains, and slept almost lying in a pile of fleas. The life of the farmers was very difficult, and it was his wish to "give the villagers a full meal".
Xi Jinping was approved to join the party in 1974 and soon became party branch secretary of the Liangjiahe Brigade.
The village cadres who worked with him at the time said that Xi Jinping’s "progress" was because he "worked hard, had ideas, and was able to unite the masses and team cadres."
Secretary Xi Jinping led the villagers to dig wells, repair silt dams, repair terraces, and build biogas digesters.
One year later, the situation of villagers fleeing famine without food can no longer be seen.
Xi Jinping was born in a red family, and his father Xi Zhongxun was a member of the first generation of the central leadership of the Communist Party of China.
Xi Jinping will recall his father's words and deeds, as well as the environment in which he grew up as a teenager.
"When I was in middle school, the political textbook I studied was called "Being the Successor of the Revolution." The successor'." Xi Jinping said.
When Xi Jinping was an educated youth, he submitted a total of 10 applications for party membership.
He read "Das Kapital" three times under the kerosene lamp in the cave dwelling and wrote 18 reading notes.
After bidding farewell to the party branch secretary of the Liangjiahe Brigade, he returned to Beijing to attend university. After graduation, he worked in the General Office of the Central Military Commission, and then went to Hebei Province to serve as the deputy secretary and secretary of the county party committee of Zhengding County.
When he recalled this experience, he said: "In 1982, I took the initiative to ask the central government to go to the grassroots and to the masses again. I said that I should love the people like my parents." He said that the deepest experience is that it is the most difficult. The biggest backer at the time is the people. One is not believing in evil, and reaching out to help you when you need it most; the second is to teach you how to be a man and to be a good person; and the third is to persevere and endure hardships.
After that, he served as the deputy mayor of Xiamen in the coastal Fujian province, and served as the secretary of the prefectural committee in Ningde, a poor area of the province, and then as the secretary of the Fuzhou Municipal Party Committee and the governor of Fujian. Then he worked as a province in Zhejiang for nearly five years. Secretary of the Party Committee; then transferred to the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee of Shanghai, the most modern city in China.
Nowadays, a school in Pujiang County, Zhejiang Province retains the site of his "down visit".
In 2003, Xi Jinping brought his colleagues here to receive the masses.
In a reception room where a classroom was temporarily remodeled, the villagers reported to him that the village was looking forward to building roads, and there was no answer after repeated petitions.
After soliciting the opinions of the transportation department, Xi Jinping decided on the spot that the provincial road reconstruction project should overcome difficulties and start construction as soon as possible.
"Unexpectedly, Secretary Xi worked so vigorously! After the road was repaired, our life became much easier." Jiang Xingjian, a villager at the time, said.
Some reminiscence articles describe how he valued love and righteousness: writer friend Jia Dashan was ill, and he rushed back to Zhengding to visit; his colleague Lu Yulan passed away, he wrote an article to mourn; Liangjiahe villager Luhou fell ill, Xi Jinping took him to Fuzhou He also used his salary and family money to cover all the travel expenses and medical expenses of Lu Housheng.
Xi Jinping said: "Hou Sheng, I am willing to spend as much money for you to treat your illness."
No matter what position he is in, Xi Jinping has no trouble getting along with the masses.
He talked to the village cadres about how to sell local liquor to increase farmers’ income. He helped to be an online shop “cargo man”. He stood in the rain and took photos with the workers. He went to the alley to pay the courier boy New Year’s greetings. He was concerned about the garbage sorting in the community. It also made suggestions for reducing the incidence of myopia among primary and middle school students.
On February 1, 2019, on the eve of the Spring Festival, Xi Jinping came to the courier service point in Shitou Hutong, Qianmen, Beijing, to visit the "brother courier" who was still working.
Xinhua News Agency
Zhang Hongming, a colleague from Zhejiang, said that Xi Jinping spent a lot of effort to deploy to prevent typhoons. He still remembers a few words that Xi Jinping said: "The first sentence is'It is better to defend against ten air and nine air, but also be foolproof'; the second sentence is'Ning listen. Scolding, don’t listen to crying’; the third sentence is “Evacuate in an orderly manner and arrange properly”.”
"This feeling is that when the new crown pneumonia epidemic struck, he immediately put forward the underlying logic to save people's lives at all costs." said Liu Jingbei, vice president of China Pudong Leadership Academy.
Wherever Xi Jinping goes, he has put forth innovative policy guidelines, such as the "eight-eight strategy" and "vacation of cages for birds, phoenix nirvana".
Ningbo Zhoushan Port has now become the world's largest port in terms of cargo throughput.
"He saw this trend and made construction plans 20 years ago." Port manager Tao Chengbo recalled.
In 2007, Xi Jinping came to the central government.
He served as a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and the vice chairman of the country.
In 2012, at the First Plenary Session of the Eighteenth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, 59-year-old Xi Jinping was elected General Secretary of the Communist Party Central Committee.
After serving as the general secretary for more than a month, he braved the cold of minus ten degrees Celsius and drove more than 300 kilometers to Fuping County, a poverty-stricken county deep in the Taihang Mountain. , Ask them how they live.
At that time, he said that it was still difficult to see some folks in the old district living in a "heavy mood."
On December 30, 2012, Xi Jinping visited and condoned the needy people in Luotuowan Village, Longquanguan Town, Fuping County, Hebei Province.

Xi Jin usually said that serving the people and being honest and clean are the true qualities of the Communists, and we must maintain this quality.
He is always the first to do it himself.
When working in Ningde, Xi Jinping, like everyone else, lined up in the cafeteria for food, and when his family came, he started cooking at his home.
His wife, Peng Liyuan, came to Ningde to visit him, and she went to the market to buy vegetables by herself.
He never arranged a bus to pick up Peng Liyuan.
He is jealous of people and things that violate the interests of the people.
As soon as he became the secretary of the Ningde Prefectural Committee, he rigorously investigated the cadres' occupation of land to build private houses.
Ningde is a poor area, and cadres violated disciplines and laws to occupy land and build private houses.
Clearing the house will offend people.
Xi Jinping said: "There is a question of who offends whom. You violated disciplines and laws by occupying land and building houses, destroying the authority and image of the party for your own benefit. Representing the interests of the party and the people, the cadres who investigated and dealt with you have offended you."
The core of leadership
In 2021, the anti-corruption struggle organized and led by Xi Jinping will enter its ninth year.
On the National Day holiday, the State Supervision Commission of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection announced that two former ministerial officials of the political and legal system were investigated and punished.
The financial system has eliminated more than 20 corrupt executives this year.
When Xi Jinping took over the baton at the helm of the CCP nine years ago, China had just become the second largest economy in the world, but the party was facing challenges from within.
Xi Jinping was clearly aware of the danger and issued a warning: "A lot of facts tell us that the corruption problem is getting worse and worse, and the party and the country will eventually die!"
How to consolidate the party’s core leadership position and let the party govern well for a long period of time is a vital task on Xi Jinping’s shoulders.
Less than 20 days after taking office as General Secretary of the Communist Party of China, Xi Jinping presided over the formulation of a policy, which was later called the "Eight Regulations", to crack down on behaviors that were previously thought to be difficult to eliminate, such as the gluttony of public funds, profligacy and waste.
In the past nine years, corrupt officials have been dismissed one after another, including about 400 officials at or above the provincial and ministerial level.
There is a former member of the Politburo Standing Committee responsible for politics and law, two former vice-chairmen of the Military Commission, and a former director of the Central Office.
Fleeing corrupt officials would have been considered safe havens.
Between 2014 and 2020, more than 8,300 people were arrested from more than 120 countries and regions.
On January 22, 2021, Xi Jinping delivered an important speech at the Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection of the Communist Party of China.

"At a critical moment, Xi Jinping tried his best to turn the tide." Radio France International quoted such a comment.
Xi Jinping proposed to "put power in the cage of the system."
He led the establishment of the National Supervisory Committee, bringing everyone in public office under supervision.
"The courage to self-revolution is the most distinctive character of our party." He said.
Since serving as general secretary, Xi Jinping has led the formulation and revision of about 200 internal party laws and regulations, fully implementing "party discipline is stricter than national law."
He organized five times of intensive study and education within the party to keep party members firm in their ideals and beliefs and unified and efficient actions.
Carrying forward democracy within the party is also something he values very much.
The party's national congress report, the party's plenary meeting documents, the party's important documents and major decisions, major reform and development measures, etc., must be solicited within a certain range of the party, and sometimes repeated solicitation of opinions.
Xi Jinping often visits the former red sites of the Communist Party of China, including the Soviet area, along the Long March, and the revolutionary relics in Yan'an.
He visited Shanghai and the birthplace of the party in Jiaxing, Zhejiang a dozen times.
In 2017, he led his colleagues in the Standing Committee to swear an oath at the site of the First Congress of the Communist Party of China: "Be ready to sacrifice everything for the party and the people at any time."
By 2021, the CCP has more than 95 million party members, which is 10 million more than the population of Germany.
According to a survey conducted by the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University, the Chinese people’s satisfaction with the Chinese government under the leadership of the party is as high as 93%.
A trust survey report released by the world-renowned consulting firm Edelman in 2020 shows that the Chinese people have 95% trust in the Chinese government, ranking first among the countries surveyed.
Different from the loose organization of some political parties in the world today, the more than 4.86 million grassroots organizations of the Communist Party of China are strictly disciplined and continue to grow and develop.
Through these "cells", Xi Jinping has led the party and the country to accomplish one feat after another: winning the battle against poverty, building a well-off society in an all-round way, building the world's largest infrastructure network, promoting full employment, curbing the new crown pneumonia epidemic, and achieving economic sustainability Stable growth and maintain social harmony and stability.
Neil Thomas, a political scholar who graduated from the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University, said: "Xi Jinping has won broad party support."
The Sixth Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China in 2016 made it clear that Xi Jinping is the core of the CPC Central Committee and the core of the entire party.
Authoritative figures in the party believe that the CCP is facing so many difficulties and obstacles in the way of running a large country. Without a strong leadership core, it is difficult to form unity of the will of the whole party, and it is difficult to realize the unity and unity of the people of all ethnic groups in the country. It is impossible to do anything, and it is even impossible to create a miracle on earth and win "a great struggle with many new historical characteristics."
At the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China in 2017, Xi Jinping's new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics was formally established.
This is the CCP’s ideological and political line to lead the country along the correct path to modernization in the new era.
Xi Jinping was re-elected as General Secretary of the Communist Party Central Committee at the First Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.
"Neither take the old road of isolation and rigidity, nor the evil road of changing the flag." Xi Jinping described the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.
On October 25, 2017, Xi Jinping cordially met with representatives of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, specially invited representatives and non-voting attendees at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.

Xi Jinping's thoughts on socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era were written into the party constitution and constitution.
It governs reform, development and stability, internal affairs, foreign affairs and national defense, and governance of the party, country, and military. It runs through Marxist philosophy, political economy, and scientific socialism. Marxism in China".
Since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, Xi Jinping Thoughts on Strengthening the Army, Xi Jinping Economic Thoughts, Xi Jinping Thoughts on Ecological Civilization, Xi Jinping Thoughts on Diplomacy, and Xi Jinping Thoughts on the Rule of Law have been established successively, becoming an important part of Xi Jinping’s thoughts on socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.
Xin Ming, a professor at the Central Party School of the Communist Party of China (National School of Administration), said that like Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping, Xi Jinping once again successfully promoted the modernization of Marxism in China-this is the basic experience of the CCP's success in the past century.
Liu Ronggang, a researcher at the Central Party History and Documentation Research Institute, said that achieving "two safeguards" is a political guarantee for adhering to and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era and new journey.
Strategist and doer to strengthen the country
The establishment of the Communist Party of China in 1921 was to change the situation in which China had gradually become a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society after the Opium War in 1840, weak and poor, and bullied.
Recalling the situation in the past, Xi Jinping sighed: "What a humiliation! What a shame! China at that time was a fat sheep to be slaughtered."
Han Qingxiang, a professor at the Central Party School of the Communist Party of China (National School of Administration), said that there are four milestones or four historic signs to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
The first milestone was the birth of the Communist Party of China in 1921; the second milestone was the founding of New China in 1949; the third milestone was the new period of reform and opening up in 1978; the fourth milestone was the CCP in 2012 After the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era.
Along the way, it has been to solve the problem of how to make the Chinese nation stand up, prosper and strengthen.
Only two weeks after Xi Jinping was elected as the general secretary of the Communist Party Central Committee in 2012, he proposed the "Chinese Dream": to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
At the meeting to commemorate the 110th anniversary of the Xinhai Revolution in October this year, he mentioned revival 25 times.
This is one of the most frequent words in his speech that day.
Xi Jinping believes that for national rejuvenation, it is necessary to have a strategic design and work hard.
He set an example.
In 2019, more than 500 important events of Xi Jinping were publicly reported by the media.
Among them, there are about 30 weeks of public reports on Saturdays and Sundays.
He personally revised every draft of the major reform plan verbatim.
Xi Jinping quoted the ancient Chinese "Song of Diligence" as saying: "There is nothing difficult to do in the world."
He said that he had almost no time for himself.
However, he still insists on taking time out to swim and exercise. Coupled with the long-term physical work in his youth, he has dealt with the heavy party, government and military affairs with extraordinary energy.
More importantly, it is driven by a sense of mission-he said that "happiness is the result of struggle."
Xi Jinping regards grassroots research as a compulsory course.
He often appears in fields, fishing villages, people's homes, small restaurants, supermarkets, heavy equipment manufacturing workshops, private enterprises, science laboratories, hospital wards, colleges, middle and elementary schools, and even farmers’ pig pens and toilets.
He rushed to a poverty-stricken Tujia village in Chongqing that day and took a flight, a train, and a car one after another.
He said: "I changed three modes of transportation to come here, just to know on the ground whether the'two no worries and three guarantees' really landed."
On April 21, 2020, Xi Jinping came to Laoxian Town, Pinli County, Ankang City, Shaanxi Province to investigate the poverty alleviation situation at the Central Primary School.

"Secretary Xi usually has a lot of information. When reporting to him, he must seek truth from facts. You can't tell lies, big talk, or empty words, because these can't fool him." Zhang Mengjin, who had worked with him, recalled.
He hates fraud and excuses.
In a survey, he criticized: "Formalism kills people! Now, some comrades learn to behave, walk through the scenes, and make fakes. Some even buy ready-made manuscripts and study diaries from the Internet, and copy them as soon as they are taken. Became my own experience."
At the beginning of the new year in 2020, the State Supervision Commission of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection issued a monthly report on the investigation and punishment of mental problems that violated the eight regulations of the Central Committee.
In the nine years, Xi Jinping has experienced many critical moments.
At the beginning of 2015, the security situation in Yemen suddenly deteriorated, and more than 600 Chinese citizens were trapped.
Xi Jinping decisively ordered the navy escort formation to immediately evacuate overseas Chinese.
The United States has successively provoked trade wars and technological wars against China.
Under Xi Jinping's personal deployment, China has properly responded to this major friction and defended its national interests with the principle and posture of "unwilling to fight, not afraid of fighting, and having to fight when necessary".
Xi Jinping said that China-US relations should "plant more flowers and less thorns", "strengthening dialogue and cooperation is the only correct choice between the two countries", and "the broad Pacific has enough space to accommodate the two major powers of China and the United States."
From realizing normalized cruises in the waters of the Diaoyu Islands to breaking the so-called "South China Sea Arbitration", from promoting the resolution of Sino-Indian border disputes to welcoming illegally detained Chinese citizens to return to China, Xi Jinping personally made strategic and tactical deployments, and even came forward to do the work himself.
Riots broke out in Hong Kong in 2019.
Xi Jinping said: “The Chinese government is unwavering in its determination to safeguard national sovereignty, security, and development interests. It is unwavering in its determination to implement the policy of'one country, two systems', and its determination to oppose any interference in Hong Kong affairs by any external forces.” He commanded and defended the “one country, two systems” The cause has shattered the "color revolution" plots of the anti-China and Hong Kong forces.
After the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia, on the 30th of the Lunar New Year, Xi Jinping couldn't sleep at night.
The next day he presided over a meeting of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee to study countermeasures.
Prior to this, he had already made a final decision to implement strict closed traffic control on the movement of people and external passages in Hubei Province and Wuhan City.
Some Western politicians and media criticized this.
Facts have proved that this is the only viable option.
On March 10, 2020, Xi Jinping went to Wuhan City, Hubei Province to inspect the prevention and control of the new crown pneumonia epidemic.
This is Xi Jinping's video connection to the infection department ward at the command center of Huoshenshan Hospital, and cordial communication with patients and medical staff in the ward.

Xi Jinping let "black swan" and "gray rhino" enter the CCP's dictionary.
Preventing and dissolving major risks in various fields has become a feature and bright spot of the new era.
"In such a big country, the responsibilities are very heavy and the work is very difficult. I will have no self and live up to the people. I am willing to be in a state of "selfless" and dedicate myself to China's development." Xi Jinping once answered questions from foreign politicians Shi said.
A changer of the times who opened up a new realm
In the new era, the situation is different.
The world has become increasingly unstable and uncertain.
In some countries, economic recovery is weak, populism, protectionism and other "anti-globalization" trends are on the rise, geopolitics, major risks and challenges are complex and severe.
When Xi Jinping took office, after more than 30 years of reform and opening up, China had strengthened its national strength, but it also faced deep-seated problems, including downward pressure on the economy, the gap between the rich and the poor, ecological destruction, and the accumulation of social contradictions.
Reform has also encountered some resistance.
This requires more scientific top-level design and bolder practical actions.
Xi Jinping has planned an innovative, coordinated, green, open and shared path forward for Chinese-style modernization.
This new development method is considered to be different from the Western modernization model for hundreds of years. It is necessary to allow socialist China to move out of an extensive, inefficient, and ecologically damaged growth zone, to embark on a high-quality development track, and to avoid the capitalist rich. The disadvantages of getting richer and poorer getting poorer.
On December 18, 2018, the celebration of the 40th anniversary of reform and opening up was held in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.
Xi Jinping delivered an important speech at the conference.

Xi Jinping called reform and opening up a "great revolution", and regarded it as a "key strategy" to determine the fate of contemporary China and realize national rejuvenation.
The new round of reforms he initiated is a successor to Deng Xiaoping's reforms and has made new breakthroughs.
The Third Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China held in 2013 issued a series of comprehensive deepening reform plans to provide basic follow-up for China's reform through the "deep water zone" in the new era.
At the end of 2013, Xi Jinping served as the leader of a newly established central leading group responsible for comprehensively deepening reforms.
This group was later changed to the Central Committee for Comprehensively Deepening Reform.
The reform covers a wide range of areas, from implementing new land policies in rural areas to strengthening party building in state-owned enterprises, from more scientific and efficient operation of party and state institutions to preventing human intervention in the judicial process, and from responding to the wave of silver hair to promoting more benefits to the people. And fiscal and taxation policies that are conducive to market development, from abolishing the reeducation through labor system to optimizing childbirth policies, from establishing a fairer education system and reducing the burden on students to establishing "houses are for living, not for speculation", from unifying urban and rural household registration The registration system to the innovative technology system allows scientists to invest in creation and invention with peace of mind, from granting local legislative powers to more cities to establishing anti-monopoly mechanisms and preventing the disorderly expansion of capital...
A major reform that has attracted much attention is to promote the modernization of systems that are related to long-term stability. The core is to uphold and improve the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, and to promote the modernization of the national governance system and governance capabilities.
This is called the "fifth modernization" after the "four modernizations" of industry, agriculture, national defense, and science and technology.
Reforms are often very difficult, and sometimes it is necessary for Xi Jinping to personally decide to eliminate disputes and break through resistance.
Xi Jinping served as the leader of the document drafting group of the Third Plenary Session of the Eighteenth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.
Party and government officials, experts and scholars who participated in document drafting and policy demonstration recalled that Xi Jinping personally studied the decision, and many deep-seated reforms that had been debated for many years and hesitated to break the ice started.
An insider recalled that with regard to the new formulation of "making the market play a decisive role in the allocation of resources," Xi Jinping finally made a conclusion and achieved a major theoretical breakthrough. "Without General Secretary Xi Jinping's determination, many major reforms would be difficult to come out. of".
In order to reverse the deterioration of the ecological environment, Xi Jinping has the courage to break all kinds of short-sighted interests and obstacles.
He ordered the polluting factory to rectify, or it would be closed.
He demanded that environmental protection be given top priority along the Yangtze River and released an amazing ten-year ban on fishing.
He gave instructions six times and ordered the demolition of illegal villas built in the picturesque Qinling Mountains.
From April 20 to 23, 2020, Xi Jinping inspected Shaanxi.
This is April 20. Xi Jinping inspected the ecological protection of the Qinling Mountains in the Qinling Niubeiliang National Nature Reserve in Zhashui County, Shangluo City.

Reforms have opened up China's borders even more.
In 2013, China established the first free trade pilot zone in Shanghai.
So far, China has 21 pilot free trade zones.
Xi Jinping made Hainan Island, an area equivalent to a small European country, into a free trade zone and a free trade port, where free and convenient trade, investment, cross-border capital flow, personnel entry and exit, and transportation exchanges are promoted.
The entries on the negative list of foreign investment access have been significantly reduced.
When some countries erected trade barriers, China became the home of a series of international trade and investment exhibitions.
Xi Jinping himself proposed the establishment of the China International Import Expo and promoted the formation of a national “convention and exhibition matrix” including the China International Import Expo, the Service Trade Fair, the Consumer Fair and the Canton Fair.
China took the lead in ratifying the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement.
This is a large-scale and significant free trade agreement in the Asia-Pacific region.
By 2021, China's overall tariff level has dropped to 7.4%, which is lower than the 9.8% WTO commitment and even lower than other major emerging economies.
In order to promote economic and social transformation, Xi Jinping put forward a series of innovative theories such as the "New Economic Normal", "Supply-Side Structural Reform" and "New Development Pattern".
九年来习近平主持了77次政治局集体学习，几乎每次均请专家授课。习近平引用《庄子》的话说：“吾生也有涯，而知也无涯。”学习内容涉及党在新时代面对的重点难点问题，从全球治理格局到经略海洋、从金融安全到人口老龄化、从知识产权保护到国际传播、从量子科技到区块链等。
2020年底，习近平宣布，七年多来共推出2485个改革方案，中共十八届三中全会提出的改革目标任务总体如期完成。
事实证明改革承诺得到兑现。2013年至2020年，中国经济年均增长约6.4%，2021年前三季度GDP同比增长9.8%，连续多年对世界经济增长的平均贡献率超过30%。2020年，中国经济总量突破100万亿元，居民人均可支配收入32189元，如期实现翻番。
刘荣刚说，新时代已经走过的进程中的最大亮点，就是实现了第一个百年奋斗目标，在中华大地上全面建成小康社会。
小康源自《诗经》：“民亦劳止，汔可小康。”这是几千年来中华民族孜孜以求的朴素理想。全面建成小康社会涵盖经济、政治、科教、文化、社会、人民生活、生态环境等方面，目标包括2020年国内生产总值和城乡居民人均收入比2010年翻一番。
目前中国已建成世界规模最大的社会保障体系，形成规模最大的中等收入群体，并历史性地消除了绝对贫困。
2021年，中国在全球创新指数上的排名跃居第12位，超过日本、以色列、加拿大等发达经济体。“北斗”“神威”“天宫”“天眼”等科技成果引人瞩目。中国中等收入者人数超过4亿。作为世界最大外资流入国，中国已经成为世界最大消费市场。新冠肺炎疫情发生后，中国率先恢复生产生活，还为许多国家提供主要防疫物资以及生产生活必需品。

人们在日常生活中就能切身感受到生态环境之变。2020年，中国地级及以上城市平均空气质量优良天数比例为87.0%；PM2.5未达标地级及以上城市平均浓度比2015年下降28.8%；地表水水质优良率达到83.4%。中国民众对生态环境质量的满意度上升到89.5%。
习近平提出的精准扶贫理念和方案对于消除绝对贫困具有决定性意义。他要求各级党员干部直接驻到村里，“一对一”开展扶贫。脱贫攻坚期间，他本人走遍全国14个集中连片特困地区。脱贫攻坚艰难程度相当于一场战争，1800多名扶贫干部或工作者牺牲了生命。
2018年，习近平成为首位对宪法宣誓的中国领导人，宣誓的场面进行了全程电视直播。
习近平全面加强意识形态工作，促进文学艺术、哲学社科、新闻出版、广播影视、信息网络等的繁荣发展。他是第一个明确提出“文化自信”的中共领导人。他担任中共十八大报告起草组组长，制订社会主义核心价值观，为国家和民族“铸魂”。

习近平对国防和军队作出革命性变革。他重申毛泽东确立的“党指挥枪”原则，进一步明确军队的党的属性及中央军委主席负责制。随着军队领导指挥体制改革、军队规模结构和力量编成改革等一系列重大改革措施的推出，长期制约国防和军队建设的体制性障碍、结构性矛盾和政策性问题逐步得到解决，中国军队现代化水平显著提升。
他要求军队做好战斗准备，并经常视察一线部队。他到达海拔1000多米的哨所。他登上首艘国产航母和新型核潜艇。“能战方能止战，准备打才可能不必打，越不能打越可能挨打。”他说。

奥地利法律学者和汉学家格尔德·卡明斯基说，中共十八大后，在习近平领导下，不仅在执政理念上，而且在中国发展的所有重大问题上，中国特色已经成为更加鲜明的指导原则。
在这一过程中，习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想也经历了实践检验，耀射出具有说服力的真理光芒。“它有效引领了实现中华民族伟大复兴的历史进程，它影响了整个世界。”韩庆祥说。
胸怀天下的大国领袖
土耳其学者阿尔泰·阿特勒说，在习近平引领下，中国正在成为一个全球大国，中国在全世界的参与——不论经济参与还是外交参与——都在发生重大变化，“我们现在目睹了一个全球大国的形成”。
习近平说：“中国共产党所做的一切，就是为中国人民谋幸福、为中华民族谋复兴、为人类谋和平与发展。”
习近平九年出国访问41次，足迹到达69国。如果不是新冠肺炎疫情，他还会有更多访问。他说，每次用这么多时间出访很“奢侈”，但很有必要。为了充分利用时间，他的访问活动有时持续到午夜，他还曾在国外访问期间度过自己的生日。
2018年中非合作论坛北京峰会召开，除了出席或主持峰会会议，习近平还出席近70场双多边活动，创造中国领导人主场外交会见外方领导人的纪录。
通过这些活动以及后来的“云”活动，他向世界宣介，中国共产党正在践行“为人类作出新的更大的贡献”的使命。“世界那么大，问题那么多，国际社会期待听到中国声音、看到中国方案，中国不能缺席。”习近平说。
在他看来，从世界多极化、经济全球化、社会信息化到文化多样化，世界各国人民的命运从未如此紧密地联系在一起。而同时，人类社会又面临治理赤字、信任赤字、发展赤字、和平赤字的严峻挑战。

为此，应该推动“构建人类命运共同体”。习近平在2013年提出的这一理念反映了中国共产党对当今世界的看法、立场和追求。
“国际社会要从伙伴关系、安全格局、经济发展、文明交流、生态建设等方面作出努力。”习近平呼吁世界为实现这一愿景采取行动，并引用名言：“计利当计天下利。”
党内权威人士说，人类命运共同体理念继承马克思主义“自由人联合体”理想，汲取中华优秀传统文化中“和合”思想，将实现全人类的幸福作为终极目标。这一理念是继毛泽东提出“三个世界”理论、邓小平提出“和平与发展”是当今世界两大主题后，由中国共产党再次提出的具有重大影响的国际主张，倡导全人类携手共进、共谋发展、共同振兴，获得众多国家的响应和支持。
“构建人类命运共同体”理念提出至今，汇总分析国际主要媒体及智库言论可以发现，包括美国等西方舆论在内，国际社会已经普遍意识到该理念具有全新指导意义和适用价值。2017年1月，习近平在瑞士日内瓦万国宫发表题为《共同构建人类命运共同体》的主旨演讲。47分钟演讲，30多次掌声。讲到关键处，几乎一句一次掌声。

法国学者皮埃尔·皮卡尔称，推动构建人类命运共同体为人类历史上最重要的哲学思想之一。
习近平提出打造以合作共赢为核心理念的新型国际关系，并倡导新的全球治理观：共商、共建、共享。“什么样的国际秩序和全球治理体系对世界好、对世界各国人民好，要由各国人民商量，不能由一家说了算，不能由少数人说了算。”习近平说。
他推动构建总体稳定、均衡发展的大国关系框架，并多次讲，只要坚持沟通、真诚相处，“修昔底德陷阱”就可以避免。习近平和普京总统把中俄关系提升为新时代全面战略协作伙伴关系。他两次与今年新任美国总统拜登通话，一致表示中美不搞冲突对抗。他提出中欧是互利合作伙伴，不是零和竞争对手。
他推动深化中国同发展中国家的团结合作，形成携手并进、共同发展的新局面。2013年担任国家主席后首次出访和2018年连任国家主席后首次出访，习近平都前往非洲大陆。
上世纪50年代，由于西方国家封锁围堵，与中国建交的国家仅有几十个。到2019年底，这一数字已达180个。近年，有五个中美洲和太平洋地区国家与中国建交或复交。
“我们的朋友遍天下！”习近平说。
默克尔即将卸任德国总理之际，习近平同她视频会晤，称她是“中国人民的老朋友”，还忆及她对四川麻辣烫感兴趣。“中国人重情重义，我们不会忘记老朋友，中国的大门随时向你敞开。”习近平说。
2013年，习近平提出“一带一路”倡议。截至2021年8月，有172个国家和国际组织与中国签署了200多份相关合作文件。据世界银行研究报告，共建“一带一路”将使相关国家760万人摆脱极端贫困、3200万人摆脱中度贫困。出访期间，习近平还专程到希腊比雷埃夫斯港、塞尔维亚斯梅戴雷沃钢厂、白俄罗斯中白工业园等“一带一路”标志性项目现场考察。
2020年，习近平宣布中国力争2030年前实现碳达峰、2060年前实现碳中和的目标，以应对气候变化。这令不少西方人士感到意外，因为他们自己的国家还做不到。
“世界需要感谢中国在应对气候变化方面的贡献。”澳大利亚前总理陆克文说，四年前也是习近平发出中国支持《巴黎协定》的最强音。如果没有中国明确坚定的表态，《巴黎协定》就不会是现在的样子。
习近平坚定做多边主义和经济全球化的捍卫者、推动者和引领者。九年间，习近平三次在联合国大会一般性辩论中发表重要讲话，他还是第一位出席达沃斯论坛的中国国家元首。“搞保护主义如同把自己关进黑屋子，看似躲过了风吹雨打，但也隔绝了阳光和空气。打贸易战的结果只能是两败俱伤。”他说，要坚持“拉手”而不是“松手”，坚持“拆墙”而不是“筑墙”。
中国成为解决一些全球和地区热点问题不可或缺的力量。这些问题涉及应对气候变化、反恐、防止核扩散、缩小贫富差距、推动公平贸易、实施维和行动等。不久前，美国仓促撤军阿富汗导致当地安全形势一度吃紧。习近平与俄罗斯总统普京通话，与上海合作组织成员国领导人视频会晤，推动阿富汗止乱回稳，尽快走上和平重建道路。
新冠肺炎疫情发生后，习近平提出国际社会要同舟共济、团结合作，并指示向150多个国家和14个国际组织提供了抗疫物资援助，向有需要的34个国家派出37批医疗专家组。习近平宣布把中国自主研制的疫苗作为公共产品向国际社会提供。今年全年，中国努力向全球提供20亿剂疫苗。中国还决定向“新冠疫苗实施计划”捐赠1亿美元。

“在习近平领导下，中国在世界舞台上发挥着独一无二的作用。”巴基斯坦总统阿尔维说。
习近平向国际社会讲述人口第一大国如何从一穷二白走向温饱又迈入全面小康的故事，说这本身就造福了全人类。“我国减贫人口占同期全球减贫人口70%以上……提前10年实现《联合国2030年可持续发展议程》减贫目标。”他说，但中国仍是世界最大发展中国家。
他阐释，中国需要和平，就像人需要空气一样，就像万物生长需要阳光一样。“我们过去没有，今后也不会侵略、欺负他人，不会称王称霸。”他同时强调：“中国人民也绝不允许任何外来势力欺负、压迫、奴役我们。”
在10月刚刚召开的《生物多样性公约》第十五次缔约方大会领导人峰会上，习近平提出构建“地球生命共同体”，引起国际社会广泛共鸣和积极反响。
“一位经验丰富的船长。”谈到对习主席的印象，第七十三届联合国大会主席埃斯皮诺萨说，从“一带一路”倡议，到构建人类命运共同体，再到大力倡导用多边主义理念处理国际问题，习主席的贡献非常巨大。
继往开来的领航人
中国共产党把国家的发展目标规划为两个“一百年”。习近平主持擘画了第二个百年奋斗目标的详细方案。这是一个庞大的计划，包括中国到2035年基本实现社会主义现代化，到本世纪中叶也就是新中国成立一百年时，建成富强民主文明和谐美丽的社会主义现代化强国。
2020年，习近平领导起草中共中央关于制定“十四五”规划和2035年远景目标的建议。这份里程碑式的发展路线图在中共十九届五中全会上获得通过。
习近平说，中共百年“创造了中华民族发展史、人类社会进步史上令人刮目相看的奇迹”，“中华民族伟大复兴曙光在前、前途光明”，“在这个关键当口，容不得任何停留、迟疑、观望，必须不忘初心、牢记使命，一鼓作气、继续奋斗”。
习近平反复告诫，中华民族伟大复兴，绝不是轻轻松松、敲锣打鼓就能实现的；在前进道路上面临的风险考验只会越来越复杂，甚至会遇到难以想象的惊涛骇浪。“实现伟大梦想必须进行伟大斗争”，习近平要求“逢山开道、遇水架桥，勇于战胜一切风险挑战”。
这使得中共十九届六中全会具有特别的承前启后意义。韩庆祥说：“百年大党的奋斗史积累了许多经验，也揭示了重要规律，还蕴含着治国理政的哲学智慧，这是一笔很重要的财富。进行总结提炼，对今后中国共产党更好治国理政能提供重要启示。我想这个期待是很重要的。”
中央党史和文献研究院研究员王均伟说：“党过去的两个历史决议对于统一思想、凝聚力量完成新的历史任务产生了深远影响。这正是我们对十九届六中全会的期待。”
在庆祝改革开放40周年大会上，习近平引用毛泽东的一段话：“在过了几十年之后来看中国人民民主革命的胜利，就会使人们感觉那好像只是一出长剧的一个短小的序幕。剧是必须从序幕开始的，但序幕还不是高潮。”
“历史没有终结，也不可能被终结……中国共产党人和中国人民完全有信心为人类对更好社会制度的探索提供中国方案。”习近平说。
2021年6月18日，党和国家领导人习近平、李克强、栗战书、汪洋、王沪宁、赵乐际、韩正、王岐山等在中国共产党历史展览馆参观“‘不忘初心、牢记使命’中国共产党历史展览”。这是参观结束后，习近平带领党员领导同志一起重温入党誓词。新华社记者 李学仁 摄
The ancient capital Beijing is one of the cities with the most museums and exhibition halls in the world.
It was newly opened this year as the Chinese Communist Party History Exhibition Hall.
In June, Xi Jinping and his colleagues came to visit and saw the loan bonds issued by the Qing government to pay the huge indemnity of the Shimonoseki Treaty, the original copy of Marx’s notebook manuscript, the list of 58 party members in the country when the CCP was founded, and the founding of New China. The early-manufactured cars and sewing machines, and the Mars rover model painted with a five-star red flag... The end of the exhibition was designed as a "time-space tunnel". The sight leads to a shining future.
Xi Jinping led his colleagues to swear in front of the party flag: "Fight for Communism for life!" (Fu Shuangqi, Li Chao, Zhang Bowen participated in the writing)
