  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has visited Shandong three times for investigation and research, and has high expectations for Shandong, "Strive to be ahead in serving and integrating into the new development pattern, in enhancing the innovation of economic and social development, and in promoting The ecological protection and high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin are at the forefront.”

Bearing in mind the general secretary's entrustment, Shandong is striving to create a new situation in the construction of a powerful modern socialist province in the new era with a high-spirited attitude.

"Promoting effective progress in high-quality development"

  As a major economic province, Shandong occupies an important position in the overall development of the country.

However, in the process of shifting the economy from high-speed growth to high-quality development, Shandong faces prominent problems such as the overall emphasis on industrial structure and the small total amount of emerging industries.

  In June 2018, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized during his inspection in Shandong that "we must adhere to the idea of ​​​​opening the cage for the bird and the phoenix nirvana" and "promoting high-quality development to achieve effective progress".

  Shandong acted quickly -

  Vigorously eliminate backward production capacity.

Since 2018, the cumulative production capacity of ground refining has been integrated and cleaned up to 23.52 million tons; more than 110,000 "scattered and polluted" enterprises have been treated, and the number of chemical parks has been reduced from 199 to 84.

  The traditional kinetic energy is upgraded.

In the past 4 years, 38,000 technological transformation projects with an investment of more than 5 million yuan have been implemented, and the investment scale ranks first in the country.

  New kinetic energy continues to grow.

Last year, the economic added value of new technologies, new industries, new formats and new models accounted for 31.7%, an increase of 10 percentage points over 2017; the "four new" economic investment accounted for more than half, reaching 51.2%.

  "In 2018, General Secretary Xi Jinping encouraged us to continuously make new breakthroughs in the research and development of key core technologies when he visited the company. Over the past 4 years, we have kept in mind the general secretary's entrustment and worked hard to tackle key problems in high-end fine chemicals nylon 12, citral, and degradable plastics. Breakthroughs have been made one after another, and the ability of independent innovation has been significantly enhanced. Sales revenue has also increased from more than 60 billion yuan to more than 140 billion yuan, and net profit has jumped from 10 billion yuan to 20 billion yuan.” said Liao Zengtai, chairman of Wanhua Group.

  Shandong also proposed this year to focus on "ten innovations" in scientific and technological research and development, talent introduction, digital transformation, etc., to provide continuous impetus for high-quality development.

  It is the summer harvest season, from the foothills of Mount Tai, the banks of the Yellow River to the banks of the Yellow River and the Bohai Sea, on the land of Qilu, harvesters are busy in the fields, and the air is filled with the fragrance of wheat, a scene of a bumper harvest.

  "Solving the 'agriculture, rural areas and farmers' problem is fundamentally about deepening reforms and taking the road of modern agriculture with Chinese characteristics" "The responsibility of a major agricultural province is to maintain national food security first" - Shandong's "Sannong" problem, General Secretary Xi Jinping is concerned about .

  The wheat variety Jimai 55 is a new variety cultivated by the Crop Research Institute of Shandong Academy of Agricultural Sciences. In the national regional test, the yield is about 5% higher than that of Jimai 22, which has the largest planting area in the country for many consecutive years, and its quality reaches the national standard for medium-strength and high-quality wheat.

"To implement the general secretary's request, we have made unremitting research and development to use better seeds to produce more and better food." said Song Jianmin, a researcher at the Crop Research Institute of Shandong Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

  In recent years, in the construction of a strong marine province, Shandong has strengthened its high-end marine equipment and deeply cultivated marine pastures. Last year, the total marine production value was about 1.49 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 15.7%; in terms of infrastructure improvement, it has developed a comprehensive three-dimensional transportation network, energy The "Seven Networks" actions such as the safety net have brought the mileage of expressways back to the first phalanx in the country; in building an open highland, the construction of the China (Shandong) Free Trade Pilot Zone and the China-Shanghai Cooperation Organization Local Economic and Trade Cooperation Demonstration Zone is progressing in an orderly manner Last year, Shandong's total import and export volume was 2.93 trillion yuan, a record high for the sixth consecutive year, with a year-on-year increase of 32.4%... Following the direction of the general secretary, Shandong thoroughly implemented the new development concept, solidly promoted the conversion of old and new kinetic energy, and moved forward .

"Ensure that the ecological protection and high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin have achieved remarkable results during the '14th Five-Year Plan' period"

  In October 2021, General Secretary Xi Jinping presided over a symposium on in-depth promotion of ecological protection and high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin in Jinan City, Shandong Province. He emphasized: "To ensure that the ecological protection and high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin have achieved remarkable results during the '14th Five-Year Plan' period. , and make unremitting efforts for the Yellow River to benefit the Chinese nation forever."

  Shandong is the estuary of the Yellow River, and shoulders heavy responsibilities in ecological protection and high-quality development in the Yellow River Basin: accelerate the construction of the Yellow River flood control and disaster reduction project; build a green ecological corridor in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, and promote the establishment of the Yellow River Estuary National Park; Leading role in watershed ecological protection and high-quality development...

  In summer, the Yellow River Estuary Wetland in Dongying City is full of green grass and birds.

  In October 2021, when General Secretary Xi Jinping visited the estuary of the Yellow River, he emphasized that the protection of the wetlands at the mouth of the Yellow River should be regarded as a noble cause.

  Liu Jing, director of the Ecological Monitoring Center of Shandong Yellow River Delta National Nature Reserve, is currently busy counting the number of oriental white storks hatching chicks, and is also preparing for the arrival of the ecological water replenishment season.

"Since this year, the reserve has restored 1,000 hectares of wetlands, and the number of bird species has increased from 187 when the area was established in 1992 to 371." Liu Jing said.

  In order to completely improve the production and living conditions of the people in the original flood storage and detention area of ​​the Yellow River, Shandong implemented measures such as relocation, reconstruction and upgrading, so that 600,000 people in the floodplain area can live in peace.

  In October 2021, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out during his inspection in Shandong that "we must do a solid job of housing and enriching the people" and "ensure that the people can move, be stable, develop, and become rich."

  "Our community has introduced leading agricultural enterprises to develop industries such as characteristic planting and breeding, rural tourism, etc. Everyone's income is increasing, and their lives are getting better every day. Kindergartens, nursing homes, and clinics have also been built in the community. Such days were never imagined before. Dare to think!" said Xu Jianfeng, a resident of Yangmiao Community in Dongying City, Shandong Province.

  The Yellow River Basin is rich in energy resources.

In October 2021, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out during an inspection at the Shengli Oilfield Exploration and Development Research Institute that green and low-carbon development is a trend, and those who follow it will prosper.

  Today, the CO2 capture, utilization and storage technology researched by the research institute chief geologist Cao Xiaopeng and his team has been used in oilfield production.

"CO2 flooding not only reduces carbon emissions, but also increases crude oil production, which has both ecological and economic benefits." Cao Xiaopeng said.

With the help of key technologies of carbon dioxide flooding and storage, Shengli Oilfield has injected a total of 420,000 tons of carbon dioxide into 7 blocks, increasing oil by 110,000 tons.

"The great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation requires the development and prosperity of Chinese culture"

  Shandong is the highland of the red spirit and the fertile soil of Chinese traditional culture.

  In November 2013, General Secretary Xi Jinping met with local advanced models and representatives of the descendants of the former models when he inspected Linyi, an old revolutionary base area. Yu Aimei was one of them.

  Yu Aimei is the granddaughter of Yimeng's mother Wang Huanyu and the daughter of Zhang Shuzhen, Yimeng's red sister-in-law. She is nearly seventy years old and is still active in the front line of Yimeng spiritual preaching.

Yu Aimei said: "Now my daughter has also joined the preaching team. We want to pass on the Yimeng spirit left by our predecessors from generation to generation."

  In November 2013, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out during his inspection in Linyi that the Yimeng spirit, like the Yan'an spirit, the Jinggangshan spirit and the Xibaipo spirit, is the precious spiritual wealth of the party and the country, and should be carried forward continuously in combination with the conditions of the new era.

  Implementing the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's instructions, Shandong has continuously increased the protection of red resources and the promotion of red culture: Shandong Museum has implemented ontological protection and digital protection of precious revolutionary cultural relics; built a party spirit education base in Yimeng; launched the national opera "Yimeng Mountain" and other outstanding Literary and artistic works; nearly 100 red tourist attractions have been built.

  In November 2013, General Secretary Xi Jinping visited the Confucius Institute and the Confucius Institute in Qufu, Shandong.

He emphasized that the prosperity of a country and a nation is always supported by cultural prosperity, and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation requires the development and prosperity of Chinese culture.

  In recent years, Shandong has held the Nishan World Civilization Forum, built the Nishan World Confucianism Center, promoted the global Chinese integration project, created a demonstration area for the inheritance and development of excellent traditional culture, and promoted excellent traditional culture.

  Qufu City has built dozens of demonstration sites to promote the creative transformation and innovative development of Chinese excellent traditional culture in the fields of village residences, communities, schools, enterprises, etc. , classic reading, non-heritage inheritance and other activities, let the excellent traditional culture "live" among the people.
