In midsummer, General Secretary Xi Jinping went to Sichuan for inspection.

From Yongfeng Village and Sansu Temple in Meishan, to Sanjiangkou, colleges and technology enterprises in Yibin, all the way, there is a main line - "the greatest of the country".

  Concerning the overall situation, the long-term, and the fundamentals, there are only four words for "the great man of the country", which is full of the profound thinking of the general secretary.

"Food security is the 'bigger of the country'"

  The land of abundance is full of fertile fields and thousands of miles, and it is well-deserved of its reputation.

  Relying on the advantages of rice industry and technology, Yongfeng Village in Meishan has built the largest pilot base for new rice varieties and new technologies in Sichuan Province.

General Secretary Xi Jinping came here as the first stop of his inspection tour, which shows that he attaches great importance to food security.

  "The breeding cycle of improved rice varieties is long, which requires repeated trials and screening..." The general secretary is very familiar with agricultural production.

At the high-standard rice planting base in Yongfeng Village, General Secretary Xi Jinping inspected the growth of rice and affirmed their practice of insisting on grain planting to help ensure national food security.

  "I am very concerned about food production and safety." Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, from local investigations to central meetings, General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly emphasized the need to tighten the string of food security.

  In 2013, General Secretary Xi Jinping sounded the alarm at the Central Economic Work Conference: "Although my country's grain production has been harvested year after year, this is a tight balance, and a tight balance is likely to be the long-term trend of my country's food security."

  The "tightness" of the balance determines that the question of "who will feed China" cannot be taken lightly.

"Food security is the 'bigger of the country'", the general secretary emphasized, "China must rely on self-reliance and support itself!"

  From the time when 400 million people could not eat enough to more than 1.4 billion people who eat well today, it depends on taking the initiative.

And winning the initiative depends on fully tapping the potential of technology, "holding grain in the ground, and storing grain in technology".

  At the 2020 Central Rural Work Conference, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that it is necessary to firmly grasp the initiative in food security. "There is only so much arable land, and the fundamental way to stabilize and increase production lies in science and technology."

  "We have the confidence and confidence to hold the Chinese people's rice bowl firmly in our own hands." Having food in our hands and not panicking is the truth at all times.

"The 'bigger of the country' is the happy life of the people"

  "The Communist Party of China is in power to push forward the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics step by step, and do everything in its power to handle the people's affairs one by one, so that the people can live a better life." In Yongfeng Village, the general secretary Speak kindly to the villagers.

  In April last year, General Secretary Xi Jinping went to Guangxi for inspection. When he was a guest at the house of Wang Deli, a villager in Maozhushan Village, Guilin, he left a classic dialogue——

  "General Secretary, you are usually so busy and come to see us. Thank you very much."

  "I am busy with these things. The 'bigger of the country' is the happy life of the people."

  Employment is the biggest livelihood.

This year, the number of college graduates in my country hit a record high.

On the 8th, General Secretary Xi Jinping came to Yibin College to investigate and investigate, and learned about the school's employment and entrepreneurship guidance services.

The general secretary emphasized that, in particular, families who have been lifted out of poverty, families with subsistence allowances, families with zero employment, and college graduates with disabilities who have not been employed for a long time should be the key targets of assistance.

  The safety of the people is the deepest concern.

On June 1, an earthquake with a magnitude of 6.1 occurred in Ya'an, Sichuan, and the general secretary immediately gave important instructions.

During the inspection, General Secretary Xi Jinping urged to continue to do a good job in the treatment of the wounded, strengthen the psychological counseling of the affected people, do a good job in the aftermath of the victims and their family reassurance work, safely resettle the affected people, and ensure the supply of basic living materials.

  Going back in time, on November 15, 2012, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out when meeting with Chinese and foreign journalists: "The people's yearning for a better life is our goal." Warm and powerful words Long echo.

"Those who are big in the country must be aware of it"

  During his inspection in Shaanxi in 2020, General Secretary Xi Jinping first mentioned "the great man of the country".

Since then, the general secretary has emphasized many times during the inspection period and at important meetings.

  During the inspection in Qinghai, protecting the ecological environment of Qinghai is the "bigger of the country"; in the summary and commendation conference of the Beijing Winter Olympics and Winter Paralympics, the preparation and holding of the Beijing Winter Olympics and the Winter Paralympic Games is the "bigger of the country"; During the inspection in Hainan, the construction of Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park is the "bigger of the country"...

  What is the "big man of the country"?

  Different times, different annotations.

But in today's China, General Secretary Xi Jinping's remarks are profound:

  "Party committees and leading cadres at all levels must speak politics consciously, and must know the importance of the country. They must always pay attention to what the Party Central Committee is concerned about and emphasize, and have a deep understanding of what are the most important interests of the party and the country, and what needs to be determined most. Maintaining a position..."

  This time in Yibin, "the first city on the Yangtze River", the general secretary urged Sichuan: "We must enhance the awareness of the overall situation, firmly establish the awareness of the upstream, unswervingly implement the policy of joint efforts to protect and not engage in large-scale development, and build a strong ecological barrier in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. Protect this river and clear water."

  "Overall awareness", "upstream awareness" and "overall protection", there are big patterns and big visions surging between the lines, highlighting the profound thinking of "Those who have no overall situation in their hearts are not enough to seek a domain".

  Only by knowing the "big men of the country" can we "integrate the work of regions and departments into the great chess game of the party and the state", and can we avoid "seeing mountains as mountains".

Just as it is limited to one province in Sichuan, in the eyes, it is farmland, villages, historical sites, Sanjiangkou, colleges and universities, and enterprises; but if you look beyond one province and look at the whole country, what you have in mind is food security, rural revitalization, and Cultural inheritance, ecological environment, employment and people's livelihood, scientific and technological progress, and the "bigger of the country".

  This is the power of the "bigger of the country", and this is the great realm and great feeling of General Secretary Xi Jinping in governing the country.
