  [Learning in progress] In the past two sessions of the National People's Congress, General Secretary Xi Jinping "attended the delegation" to communicate with deputies to the National People's Congress and members of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference to discuss the country's interests, leaving many wonderful stories, and the touching scenes of exchange and interaction are unforgettable.

Xinhua News Agency's "Learning in Progress" original brand column "Learning Institute" launched an article today to tell you the stories after those stories.

  The tenth "two sessions" of General Secretary Xi Jinping is about to start.

In the past two sessions of the country, in addition to the agenda determined by the meeting, party and state leaders will also choose different groups to communicate with deputies to the National People's Congress and members of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and discuss the country's interests.

  Since 2013, General Secretary Xi Jinping has participated in the deliberation and discussion of the delegation 50 times, listened to the speeches of hundreds of representatives face-to-face, and left many wonderful stories, many of which will continue after the meeting.

  In 2016, at the Fourth Session of the Twelfth National People's Congress, Xi Jinping came to Qinghai as a delegation.

Qinghai is the birthplace of the three major rivers, the Yangtze River, the Yellow River and the Lancang River, and bears a major responsibility for national ecological security and sustainable national development.

At the meeting, Xi Jinping said earnestly that we must give priority to ecological protection, protect the source of the Three Rivers, protect the "China Water Tower", and ensure that "a river of clear water flows eastward."

  It is the ardent expectation of the General Secretary to make clear waters and lush mountains always become the advantage and pride of Qinghai, benefiting the people and the children and grandchildren.

After earnestly entrusting the two meetings, he flew to Qinghai in August of that year to inspect the source of the Yangtze River, and to calculate the big account, the long-term account, the overall account, and the comprehensive account for Qinghai.

  Here, the story is not over yet.

  In 2021, at the Fourth Session of the Thirteenth National People's Congress, Xi Jinping came to the Qinghai delegation again.

Ecological protection is still a key content of Xi Jinping's talks.

He demanded that Qinghai must undertake the major mission of maintaining ecological security, protecting the source of the Three Rivers, and protecting the "Chinese Water Tower", and be responsible to the country, the nation, and future generations.

  Similarly, 3 months later, the general secretary came to Qinghai for field research, and then made arrangements and made requirements.

  In June 2021, Xi Jinping came to the Fairy Bay of Qinghai Lake and walked along the wooden plank road for inspection.

Seeing that the lake is open, the water is clear, and the birds are soaring, Xi Jinping emphasized that the achievements in ecological protection and environmental governance of Qinghai Lake are hard-won and should be cherished and continuously consolidated and expanded.

  After the inspection, Xi Jinping made a request to the Qinghai Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government.

He emphasized that protecting Qinghai's ecological environment is the "bigger of the country".

We must firmly establish the concept that lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets, and effectively protect the ecology of the third pole of the earth.

We must take the protection of the Three Rivers Source as the top priority of Qinghai's ecological civilization construction, and undertake the major mission of maintaining ecological security, protecting the Three River Sources, and protecting the "Chinese Water Tower".

  The story of Xi Jinping and Qinghai is about a major event related to the sustainable development of the nation.

During the two sessions, Xi Jinping also cared about the "little things" in the lives of many people. In his mind, this is also the "big one of the country".

  In 2016, at the Fourth Session of the Twelfth National People's Congress, Xi Jinping came to the Heilongjiang delegation and exchanged views with the delegates on many important issues such as state-owned enterprise reform, wetland protection, agricultural production, and forestry transformation.

At the meeting, a representative of the Hezhe nationality told Xi Jinping that with the help of policies such as the project of revitalizing the border and enriching the people, the life of the Hezhe people has embarked on a happy road just like the Ussuri boat song.

After listening, Xi Jinping asked with concern, how many people still rely on fishing for a living, and there are not many fish in the river.

He also emphasized that on the road of development, we must give full play to the advantages of the system, and all ethnic groups with small numbers must go to a well-off society, and none of them can be less.

  The delegates hoped that the general secretary would come to Heilongjiang for inspection during his busy schedule.

Only two months later, Xi Jinping arrived as promised.

  In May of that year, Xi Jinping came to Heilongjiang, visited Yichun, Fuyuan, Jiamusi, Harbin and other places, and went deep into rural areas, enterprises, forest farms, and scientific research units. The concerns during the inspection were consistent with the content of the talks at the two sessions.

  At the meeting, he paid close attention to the deepening reform of state-owned enterprises. During the inspection, he paid close attention to the situation of the enterprises, and affirmed that the development of strategic new industries has great potential; at the meeting, he urged to protect the wetlands. During the inspection, he landed on Heixiazi Island, emphasizing the need to "leave a blank sheet of paper"; At the meeting, he asked about agricultural production. During the inspection, he investigated land circulation and paid attention to the quality of rice. At the meeting, he learned about the situation of the suspension of logging and transformation of the Daxing'an Mountains. During the inspection, he went deep into the vast forests and overlooked the "Golden Mountains and Silver Mountains".

  Xi Jinping also made a special trip to visit Hezhe villages in the rain to communicate with the masses.

A villager recalled, “The general secretary knows and cares about ethnic minorities very well. He even knows that we have cultivated land on Bacha Island, and asked us about our income after fishing and land transfer, and the new rural cooperative insurance.”

  There are many more stories like this.

In the past nine years, it has become a rule for Xi Jinping to keep in touch with the internal and external counterparts of the two sessions to grasp major events.

A few more examples:

  At the second session of the 12th National People's Congress in 2014, in the Shanghai delegation, Xi Jinping emphasized the promotion of the construction of a free trade pilot zone.

Soon, he came to the Shanghai Pilot Free Trade Zone to investigate and research enterprises, parks and scientific research bases, pointing out the direction for Shanghai to continue to be the vanguard of national reform and opening up and the forerunner of scientific development.

  At the Second Session of the Twelfth National People's Congress in 2014, in the Anhui delegation, Xi Jinping emphasized the issue of deepening rural reform, and put forward specific requirements such as "respecting the wishes of farmers" and "handling the relationship between farmers and land".

Later, when he went to Anhui for inspection, Xi Jinping presided over a symposium on rural reform, reiterated these requirements, and always kept the direction of reform steady.

  At the third session of the 12th National People's Congress in 2015, in the Jilin delegation, Xi Jinping emphasized that we can no longer sing the "two-person Zhuan" of "one pillar of industry and a single structure", and that addition, subtraction, multiplication and division must be done well.

In July of that year, he personally went to Jilin to conduct in-depth research on various enterprises, and proposed "seeking innovation in change, progress in change, and breakthrough in change", clarifying the spiritual essence of "Four Principles of Operation" and giving precise guidance.

  From the continuation of the story of Xi Jinping's "to the group" of the two sessions, it is not difficult to draw these three "ones":

  A grassroots complex.

Xi Jinping is a leader who came from the grassroots. For many years, he has always cared about the grassroots.

Some people say that the two sessions are like a window, from which the general secretary listens to the voices of the grassroots and perceives the warmth of the people; from here, the people also see the general secretary's pure love of serving the people and the country.

  A personal example.

Leading cadres must have "the great man of the country" in their hearts, listen to the voice of the people, respond to the people's concerns with sincerity, and fulfill their promises with actions.

Xi Jinping's actions after the meeting set an example for the whole party.

Over the years, more and more representatives have sent invitations to Xi Jinping: I hope the general secretary will visit their hometowns and give them more guidance.

  A work style.

The National People's Congress and the National People's Congress are also an important platform for Xi Jinping to grasp the work, feel the situation and make arrangements.

Xi Jinping has often said that catching a job cannot be "a bear breaking a stick".

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, Xi Jinping has paid great attention to the implementation and feedback of various tasks.

These continuing stories are a microcosm of his staring and repeatedly grasping various jobs.
