  Jean DELVIGNE, a French expert at the Central Academy of Party History and Literature, has a scanned photo of Wang Ximeng's "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" in his mobile phone.

  How to find the most accurate translation for this phrase that China's top leader, Xi Jinping, has spoken about many times?

The foreign expert looked at the mountains and rivers of China, read Chinese culture, and felt the unique meaning of "Jiangshan" in Chinese political vocabulary: "Jiangshan" is the image expression of the country and the regime by the Chinese, and it is integrated with people and cannot be separated. , the people are the core of "Jiangshan".

  Throughout the ages, the relationship between the state and the people has always been an important proposition across languages, skin colors and regions.

How the rulers know and perceive the "people" is also a "Esperanto".

  "The country is the people, and the people are the country." Xi Jinping expressed the understanding of the "people" in contemporary China.

  Taking the world background as a reference, we can better perceive the "Chinese flavor" of Xi Jinping's words.

  Daveli found a corresponding expression for it in Western culture - the Latin phrase "Vox Populi, Vox Dei", which means "the voice of the people is supreme".

  In David's view, the "Jiangshan" that Chinese politicians refer to symbolizes a kind of natural and organic power. The same "inseparable".

Westerners usually think that man and nature are separate, and Western politics, systems and philosophy all talk about "separation", which is the most fundamental difference between China and the West.

  "If we analyze from political theory 'the country is the people, the people are the country', this sentence is like Xi Jinping's saying that 'our political system and our people are not separated'." David said.

  From a historical point of view, the cognition of people in power in China today takes traditional Chinese culture as the "source" and the soil of Chinese society as the "root".

  Thousands of years ago, the Chinese put forward that "the people are the foundation of the state, and the state is solid and peaceful" and "between heaven and earth, nothing is more valuable than people", placing people in an important position in society and value systems.

When discussing the rich thoughts on the state system and governance, Xi Jinping has repeatedly emphasized the reference significance of the people-oriented concept to governance.

  On the basis of inheriting the concepts of loving the people and benefiting the people, enriching the people and benefiting the people, the CCP put forward the people's position that "the party puts the interests of the masses first at all times", and endowed the people with a new value of the times.

Xi Jinping emphasized that the Communist Party of China "is rooted in the people, its blood is in the people, and its strength is in the people".

  The 100-year history of the Communist Party of China's exploration of its own path is also a history of the practice of the "people's concept".

  On Chang'an Street, a famous political landmark in China, the five characters "Serve the people" on the screen wall of Zhongnanhai Xinhuamen are the most dominant expressions of the century-old gene.

  Xi Jinping pointed out that "to fight the country and guard the country, it is the people's heart that guards."

In the eyes of observers, Xi Jinping's elaboration on the relationship between "the country" and "the people" essentially emphasizes the fundamental issue of "people's hearts turn their backs."

  Looking at the world, cases of "governing the rise and fall of chaos" are not uncommon.

Xi Jinping repeatedly used experience and lessons such as the "Tacitus Trap", "Farewell My Concubine" and "historical cycle rate" to warn the whole party that "government thrives in favor of the people, and abolishes it in disobedience to the people."

  David also observed that a difference between the ruling party of the CCP and modern Western countries is that they not only represent the people, but also lead the people.

  From the perspective of "people's country theory", the CCP regards the people as the country itself, as the value of building and governing, and also provides inspiration for jumping out of the historical cycle rate.

  "'Jiangshan is the people, and the people are the country'. This is like a sentence that can be carved on the exterior of the Great Hall of the People. It represents a most important and basic principle." David said.
