Editor's note:
"The Spring Festival is a beautiful time to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, and it will always bring people new aspirations." General Secretary Xi Jinping's words express the core of the Spring Festival culture.
The Chinese New Year is a "year of time" to say goodbye to the old and usher in the new, and it is also a "year of culture" to move forward towards kindness.
On the occasion of the most important traditional festival of the Chinese nation, CCTV's "People's Leader Xi Jinping" column launched a series of special articles "Xi Jinping's Spring Festival Memories" to experience the "Chinese New Year style" of the general secretary with you.
When the Spring Festival meets the Winter Olympics, Xi Jinping is extra busy.

President Xi Jinping attended the opening ceremony and announced the opening of the Winter Olympics.
Spending the Spring Festival with busy work is not a special case for Xi Jinping. This can be seen from several of his past events during the Spring Festival, from which we can also see the spiritual journey and sincere feelings of the people's leaders along the way.
"When I was working in the local area, I had to be on duty during the New Year and holidays, for fear that something would happen."
In the documentary "Loyalty - Xi Zhongxun's Wife Qi Xin", there is such a clip: Xi Zhongxun chatted with his wife Qi Xin and his daughter Xi Qiaoqiao about Xi Jinping's work status during a walk-
Xi Qiaoqiao told his father Xi Zhongxun that Xi Jinping went to Xiamen and was very busy there. "On the evening of New Year's Eve, Li Yuan and his family had a hot pot at home, and then went out the next day."

"I'm afraid something will happen," Xi Jinping said at the fifth plenary meeting of the 18th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection on January 13, 2015.
Later, he further said: "Many local and departmental responsible comrades disappeared as soon as the holidays came, and went to other places to go on vacation. How can you feel at ease when you travel so far? What should you do if something happens?" He urged Leading cadres "must have a strong sense of responsibility".
One of the manifestations of Xi Jinping's sense of responsibility is "investigation and research".
Due to his busy work, Xi Jinping, then governor of Fujian Province, was unable to reunite with his parents during the Spring Festival in 2001.
While he was going to the countryside, he had a phone call with his mother.
Hearing the news that Xi Jinping could not come back, Qi Xin was not surprised, but said earnestly: "You have so much work, Mom is quite happy to hear it. The key is not whether you come or not, as long as you do your job well, It is the greatest filial piety to parents. This is to be responsible for the family, and also for yourself, which is consistent. "
During the Spring Festival of 1989, Xi Jinping, then secretary of the Ningde Prefectural Party Committee, visited and expressed condolences to the people who were affected by the strong typhoon in She Village, Jiuxian Mountain, Jiudu Town, Jiaocheng District.

It is often just a few days after returning from the research, and it is time to set off again.
