............
June 2023, China Academy of History. General Secretary Xi Jinping attended the symposium on cultural inheritance and development and delivered an important speech, comprehensively, systematically and in-depth expounded a series of major theoretical and practical issues in the inheritance and development of Chinese culture from the overall strategic height of the development of the cause of the party and the country, pointing out the way forward and providing fundamental guidelines for strengthening cultural self-confidence and self-improvement, better shouldering the new cultural mission in the new era, and solidly promoting the construction of modern civilization and socialist cultural power of the Chinese nation.
Looking back at the magnificent history, the Communist Party of China is a party with a high degree of cultural consciousness, and the party's century-long struggle condenses the history of Chinese culture advancing with the times. The Communist Party of China is an active leader and practitioner of China's advanced culture, a faithful inheritor and propagator of China's excellent traditional culture, and an important contributor and model of the Chinese spirit.
Based on the ever-changing present, from the Beijing Winter Olympics to display China's self-confident, inclusive and open image as a big country in the new era, to the dream of the Tang Paradise to show the spirit of Chinese culture that is inclusive of all seas and embraces all rivers, to the Beijing Central Axis and the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal and a large number of cultural heritages blooming with new rhyme... Today, Chinese culture is more magnificent, and Chinese civilization is more dazzling.
Towards a bright and grand future, General Secretary Xi Jinping made major arrangements in the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China around "promoting cultural self-confidence and self-improvement and creating new glory of socialist culture", emphasizing "enhancing the spiritual power to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation". Standing on this ancient and magical land, sucking the cultural nutrients accumulated by the long struggle of the Chinese nation, looking at the magnificent prospects of building a strong country and national rejuvenation, under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core and under the scientific guidance of Xi Jinping's thought on socialism with Chinese characteristics for a new era, the Chinese people insist on following their own path, with an incomparably broad stage of the times, an incomparably profound historical heritage, and an incomparably strong determination to move forward!
"Q: Is that as clear as promised? For the source of living water comes. ”
Practice has proved and will continue to prove that Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, insisting on integrating the basic tenets of Marxism with China's specific conditions and with China's excellent traditional culture, is contemporary Chinese Marxism, 21st century Marxism, the essence of Chinese culture and Chinese spirit, has made original contributions to the enrichment and development of Marxism, made historical contributions to the inheritance and development of China's excellent traditional culture, and made worldwide contributions to promoting the progress of human civilization.

The writer, the instrument of the way. Look at the humanities, in order to become the world.
He stressed that "only by persisting in moving from history to the future and forging ahead from the continuation of the national cultural bloodline can we do a good job in today's cause", pointed out that "without a high degree of cultural self-confidence and cultural prosperity, there will be no great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation", and made it clear that "to build a modern socialist country in an all-round way, we must adhere to the path of socialist cultural development with Chinese characteristics and enhance cultural self-confidence"... Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has accurately grasped the trend of mutual agitation of ideology and culture in the world and profound changes in China's social ideology and concepts, continuously deepened his understanding of the law of cultural construction, and put forward a series of new ideas, new views and new theories, which is a theoretical summary of the practical experience of the party's leadership in cultural construction in the new era, and provides a fundamental basis for doing a good job in propaganda, ideology and cultural work.
Take dreams as sails, and struggle as oars. Over the past ten years in the new era, under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core and under the scientific guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, we have adhered to the position of Chinese culture, listed cultural self-confidence, road confidence, theoretical self-confidence and institutional self-confidence as the "four self-confidences" of socialism with Chinese characteristics, adhered to the guiding position of Marxism in the ideological field, persisted in leading cultural construction with socialist core values, built a new atmosphere of Chinese culture and stimulated the new vitality of Chinese civilization in the process of upholding integrity and innovation. It has provided a strong spiritual driving force for adhering to and developing socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era and opening up a new situation in the cause of the party and the country.
Today, the Chinese people are more confident and have a stronger driving force for progress.
Culture is the soul of a country and a nation. General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed that "ideological work is the work of establishing the heart of the country and the soul of the nation", and proposed that cultural self-confidence "is a more basic, broader and deeper self-confidence" and "the most basic, deepest and most enduring force in the development of a country and a nation", pointing out that "the strength of a country and a nation is always supported by cultural prosperity, and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation needs to be conditioned by the development and prosperity of Chinese culture".
The cultural construction in the new era has made extraordinary achievements, and cultural self-confidence has forged the soul. From the National Conference on Propaganda and Ideological Work, to literary and artistic work, the Party's news and public opinion work, network security and informatization work, the Philosophy and Social Science Work Symposium and the National Conference on Ideological and Political Work in Colleges and Universities, to the Congress of the China Federation of Literature and Literature and the China Writers Association... At a series of important meetings, General Secretary Xi Jinping's new ideas, new views and new theories on cultural construction clarified theoretical right and wrong and corrected work orientation in the original and clean source; From the establishment of the responsibility system for ideological work, to the promotion of the integrated development of the media, from carrying out publicity and education on the history of the Party, the history of New China, the history of reform and opening up, and the history of socialist development, to the cultivation and practice of the core socialist values, a series of major measures have sung the main theme and promoted positive energy in the whole society.
"Post-70s, post-80s, post-90s, post-00s, before they go out to see the world, China can already see the world at eye level." In March 2021, General Secretary Xi Jinping's words during the National Two Sessions were full of emotion. The self-confidence of "looking at the world equally" comes from the historical achievements and changes in China's development in the new era, from the "time and trend" of the world trend, and from the unique concept, wisdom, temperament and charm of Chinese culture.
When "Changjin Lake", "My Motherland and Me", "The Age of Awakening" and "The Wandering Earth", which are immersed in Chinese culture and full of Chinese spirit, are popular at home and abroad; When the cultural relics collected in museums, the heritage displayed in the vast land, and the words written in ancient books increasingly enter the hearts of the people; When the historian Toynbee's prediction that "the future of mankind is in the East, and Chinese civilization will become the leader of the world" is becoming a reality, there is no reason not to be confident: the Chinese nation has created a long-standing Chinese culture, and the Chinese nation will certainly be able to create new splendor of Chinese culture.
-- Today, the Chinese people are more self-reliant and their spirit of struggle is more uplifting.
It is hard to forget that the ceremony of the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China was a celebration of Qiankun, joy and heaven and earth, and the oath of "please rest assured that the party can rest assured and strengthen the country has me" has echoed for a long time; It is difficult to forget that the "Order of the Republic" and "July 2022st Medal" awarding ceremony was warm and solemn, and "advocating heroes will produce heroes, and striving to be heroes can produce heroes" has become the strong voice of the times; It is hard to forget that the opening and closing ceremonies of the Beijing <> Winter Olympics brilliantly presented the <> solar terms, the water of the Yellow River, the Chinese knot, the welcoming pine, the folding willow and the theme song of snowflakes, and the "Chinese romance" attracted the attention of the world...
Comprehensively promote the overall layout of the "five-in-one" and coordinate the promotion of the "four comprehensive" strategic layout, and culture is an important content; To promote high-quality development, culture is an important fulcrum; To meet people's growing needs for a better life, culture is an important factor; Culture is an important source of strength to overcome the risks and challenges along the way. It is pointed out that "every civilization continues the spiritual bloodline of a country and nation, which needs to be passed on from generation to generation, but also needs to keep pace with the times and be brave in innovation", inherit the excellent traditional Chinese culture, let precious cultural relics "live", let classic ancient books "catch fire", let cities retain memories, and let people remember homesickness; It emphasizes that "we should make full use of red resources, deepen the study and education of party history, and continue the red bloodline", carry forward revolutionary culture, form a spiritual lineage of Chinese communists with the great party-building spirit as the source, achieve remarkable results in the protection and utilization of revolutionary cultural relics, and continuously demonstrate the unique value of revolutionary cultural relics resources to inherit red genes and stimulate patriotic enthusiasm; It is required to "adhere to the direction of advanced socialist culture, use socialist core values to gather consensus and strength, and use excellent cultural products to inspire people and boost morale", develop advanced socialist culture, extensively condense the spiritual strength of the people, and provide profound support for the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity... Over the past ten years in the new era, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core has placed cultural construction in an important position in the overall work, insisted on raising the banner, gathering the hearts of the people, educating new people, revitalizing culture, and displaying images, prospering and developing cultural undertakings and cultural industries, and providing more and better spiritual food for the people.
Time freezes the forging grandeur of the eastern powers, and highlights the vigorous development of Chinese culture and Chinese spirit. Under the scientific guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, inspired and nourished by China's excellent traditional culture, revolutionary culture and advanced socialist culture, the Chinese people adhere to independence and self-reliance, strengthen national self-esteem and self-confidence, and radiate an unprecedented spirit of historical initiative and historical creation. The fighting spirit of the Party and the people runs through the battle of poverty alleviation that "if we do not win a complete victory, we will never withdraw the army", arouse the ambition of "bravely climbing the world's scientific and technological peaks", sprinkle on the sports arena where "life can have several rounds", and engrave on the historical monument of "building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way as scheduled".
Today, the Chinese people are more self-reliant and have a firmer belief in victory.
This is a major and decisive victory for epidemic prevention and control! This is the miracle of the populous country in the history of human civilization successfully getting out of the epidemic pandemic! In the spring of 2023, the Forbidden City in Beijing will be full of tourists, Shanghai Huangpu River steamship shuttle, Wuhan's "Optics Valley" innovation will accelerate, and the number of exhibitors at the Canton Fair will reach a new high, clearing the haze of the epidemic for more than three years, and the land of Shenzhou will shine with new vigor. Looking back on the great practice of the anti-epidemic struggle, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: "The strong spiritual power of the core values of socialism and the excellent traditional Chinese culture is a powerful force that unites people's hearts and strength. "How hard it has been to fight the epidemic for more than three years, and how thrilling the big war test is! From the life rescue of "loving others and goods is benevolent" to the watch and help of "green mountains and clouds and rain", it is the great anti-epidemic spirit formed by more than 14.<> billion Chinese people, which puts life first, unites the whole country, sacrifices life and forgets death, respects science, and shares a common destiny, which has forged a strong spiritual defense line of unity and common will.
Only when it is spiritually firm and firm can a nation stand firm and stand tall in the torrent of history. In the past ten years in the new era, there have been risks of wading into the beach, difficulties in climbing hills, and difficulties in breaking through difficulties. It emphasized that "the continuous development of the Chinese nation, the continuous rebirth of setbacks and the continuous rebirth of the Chinese nation are inseparable from the strong support of Chinese culture", pointed out that "our party emphasizes that ideals and beliefs are the spiritual 'calcium' of communists, emphasizes that 'revolutionary ideals are higher than heaven', that is, the dialectic of spirit into material and material into spirit", and put forward that "socialist culture with Chinese characteristics accumulates the deepest spiritual pursuit of the Chinese nation, represents the unique spiritual mark of the Chinese nation, and is a powerful spiritual force for the Chinese people to march forward victoriously"... General Secretary Xi Jinping's new ideas, views and theories on cultural construction have guided hundreds of millions of people, drawn wisdom and strength from the great practice of the new era, and sensed the mighty spirit inherited for thousands of years from the excellent traditional Chinese culture.

河南安阳西北郊，洹河静静流过殷墟。刀笔留痕，甲骨呈奇，印证数千年信史，记录方块字源头，彰显中华优秀传统文化的根脉。
“中华文明源远流长，从未中断，塑造了我们伟大的民族，这个民族还会伟大下去的。”党的二十大后，习近平总书记来到这里考察，强调“我们要坚定文化自信，增强做中国人的自信心和自豪感”“更深地学习理解中华文明，古为今用，为更好建设中华民族现代文明提供借鉴”。
比之为“根和魂”，喻之为“精神命脉”，视之为“中华民族生生不息、发展壮大的丰厚滋养”，习近平总书记高度重视中华优秀传统文化，语重心长地指出：“经济总量无论是世界第二还是世界第一，未必就能够巩固住我们的政权。经济发展了，但精神失落了，那国家能够称为强大吗？”党的十八大以来，在培育和践行社会主义核心价值观的基础工程中，在贯彻治国理政新理念新思想新战略的生动实践中，在提出“构建人类命运共同体”“共建‘一带一路’”“全球发展倡议”“全球安全倡议”“全球文明倡议”等中国方案中，莫不体现出对中华优秀传统文化的深刻认识与创新发展，也莫不印证着这样的判断——“没有文明的继承和发展，没有文化的弘扬和繁荣，就没有中国梦的实现。”
长河浩荡，在文化的轴线上，把握历史、现实与未来；高山巍峨，在精神的维度中，把握时代精神、民族精神与核心价值。习近平总书记关于文化建设的新思想新观点新论断，融民族性与时代性于一体，融中华文化和中国精神于一体，为实现中华民族伟大复兴确立了文化坐标、精神旗帜。
——中华优秀传统文化是我们党创新理论的“根”。习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想，是中华文化的时代精华。
这是宏阔的文化视野。实现中华民族伟大复兴的中国梦，昭示“自强不息”“刚健有为”的气质；坚持以人民为中心的发展思想，展现“以百姓心为心”的品格；全面深化改革的实践，折射“苟日新，日日新，又日新”的奋发；构建人类命运共同体的理念与行动，蕴藏“协和万邦”“天下一家”的智慧……习近平总书记关于文化建设的新思想新观点新论断，深深植根于中华优秀传统文化的丰厚沃土，深刻汲取了中华优秀传统文化的丰富哲学思想、人文精神、道德理念，使马克思主义的理论主脉和中华民族的精神血脉内在贯通，使历史中国的深厚底蕴与现实中国的崭新气象深相融通，形成了中华民族智慧的最新表达和理论上的最新概括。
这是复兴的文化气象。指出“要善于从中华优秀传统文化中汲取治国理政的理念和思维”，强调“中华优秀传统文化是中华民族的突出优势，是我们最深厚的文化软实力”……习近平总书记把中华文化传承发展与中华民族伟大复兴联系起来，将中华文化融入中国式现代化的伟大实践中，融入实现民族复兴的伟大梦想中。高度的文化自觉、深沉的文化自信、勇毅的文化担当，把中华文化发展推向新阶段，激励着亿万人民铸就社会主义文化新辉煌。
——中国精神是凝心聚力的兴国之魂、强国之魂。习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想，是中国精神的时代精华。
这是沉淀历史智慧的精神瑰宝。“惟改革者进，惟创新者强，惟改革创新者胜”，是伟大创造精神的集中表达；“幸福都是奋斗出来的，奋斗本身就是一种幸福”，是伟大奋斗精神的庄严宣示；“14亿多中国人心往一处想、劲往一处使，同舟共济、众志成城，就没有干不成的事、迈不过的坎”，是伟大团结精神的一脉相承；“实现中华民族伟大复兴，就是中华民族近代以来最伟大的梦想”，是伟大梦想精神的时代共鸣。结晶于五千多年中华文明积淀的历史河床之上，蕴藏在中华民族的生生不息、薪火相传之中，中国精神必将在复兴征程上不断发扬光大，在实现中国梦的道路上如天行健、如地势坤。
这是引领民族复兴的精神航道。“实现中国梦必须弘扬中国精神。”党的十八大以来，习近平总书记提炼了一系列内容丰富、气韵生动的中国精神，构筑了绵延中华民族历史、纵贯民族复兴进程、赓续民族精神血脉的精神谱系，为实现中华民族伟大复兴提供了源源不断的精神力量。聚焦于实现中华民族伟大复兴这一主题，习近平总书记关于文化建设的新思想新观点新论断，充分彰显了中国精神的鲜明特征，集中体现了中国精神的风格气派，赋予中国精神以崭新的时代意蕴，使中国精神得到与时俱进的历史升华，在时代的回响中迸发出更加持久饱满的精神能量和实践能量。
习近平总书记强调：“只有植根本国、本民族历史文化沃土，马克思主义真理之树才能根深叶茂。”习近平总书记关于文化建设的新思想新观点新论断，坚持古为今用、推陈出新，不断推动中华优秀传统文化创造性转化、创新性发展，贯穿于中国式现代化道路的推进拓展之中，融汇于创造人类文明新形态的社会实践之中，体现于中华民族伟大复兴的历史伟业之中，让我们更加坚定历史自信、文化自信。
回望历史，中华民族是世界上古老而伟大的民族，创造了绵延五千多年的灿烂文明，为人类文明进步作出了不可磨灭的贡献。
在近代中国最危急的时刻，中国共产党人用马克思主义真理的力量激活了中华民族历经几千年创造的伟大文明，用深刻的文化自觉唤起了亿万同胞的伟大觉醒。马克思主义以对社会发展规律的揭示、对人类理想社会的追寻、对实现人类解放的实践，切中了中华文化的深沉脉搏，促进了中华民族的复兴进程，激励受剥削受压迫的劳苦大众浴血奋战、百折不挠，激励站起来的中国人民自力更生、发愤图强，激励改革开放大潮中的亿万人民解放思想、锐意进取，激励新时代的中国人民自信自强、守正创新。
文化如水，浸润无声；文明如潮，浩荡弦歌。
新时代新征程上，一个重大论断引发强烈共鸣——中华文明具有突出的连续性、突出的创新性、突出的统一性、突出的包容性、突出的和平性。中华优秀传统文化是中华文明的智慧结晶和精华所在，是中华民族的根和魂。在几千年的历史流变中，中华民族从来不是一帆风顺的，遇到了无数艰难困苦，但我们都挺过来、走过来了，其中一个很重要的原因就是世世代代的中华儿女培育和发展了独具特色、博大精深的中华文化，为中华民族克服困难、生生不息提供了强大精神支撑。
从过去到未来，一条脉络鲜明浮现——马克思主义真理力量激活了中华文明的强大生命力，使中华文明再次迸发出强大精神力量。习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想是中华文化和中国精神的时代精华，标志着中华民族和中国人民的文化自信、文化自觉达到了新的历史高度。以文化之光铸时代之魂，以文化之风扬强国之帆，我们必将在中华文化发展繁荣的进程中迎来中华民族伟大复兴。

留住历史根脉、传承中华文明，习近平总书记在地方考察时，多次调研传统文化保护传承，阐述弘扬优秀传统文化、保护历史文化遗产、坚定文化自信的重要性。
2014年，习近平总书记在首都博物馆强调“让文物说话、把历史智慧告诉人们，激发我们的民族自豪感和自信心，坚定全体人民振兴中华、实现中国梦的信心和决心”；
2019年，习近平总书记在甘肃敦煌研究院指出“只有充满自信的文明才能在保持自己特色的同时包容、借鉴、吸收各种文明的优秀成果”；
2021年，习近平总书记在福建朱熹园感慨“如果没有中华五千年文明，哪里有什么中国特色？如果不是中国特色，哪有我们今天这么成功的中国特色社会主义道路？”
…………
“我们从哪里来？我们走向何方？中国到了今天，我无时无刻不提醒自己，要有这样一种历史感。……中国有坚定的道路自信、理论自信、制度自信，其本质是建立在5000多年文明传承基础上的文化自信。”党的十八大以来，习近平总书记饱含深厚的文化情怀，以高度的历史自信、坚定的文化自觉，推动中华文化在新时代焕发出新的光芒，激扬中国精神、凝聚中国力量，引领亿万人民迈向复兴之路。
习近平总书记指出：“在五千多年中华文明深厚基础上开辟和发展中国特色社会主义，把马克思主义基本原理同中国具体实际、同中华优秀传统文化相结合是必由之路。这是我们在探索中国特色社会主义道路中得出的规律性的认识，是我们取得成功的最大法宝。”“两个结合”是推进马克思主义中国化时代化的根本途径，我们要深刻理解“两个结合”的重大意义，深刻把握“结合”的前提是彼此契合、“结合”的结果是互相成就、“结合”筑牢了道路根基、“结合”打开了创新空间、“结合”巩固了文化主体性。
中华优秀传统文化源远流长、博大精深，其中蕴含的天下为公、民为邦本、为政以德、革故鼎新、任人唯贤、天人合一、自强不息、厚德载物、讲信修睦、亲仁善邻等，是中国人民在长期生产生活中积累的宇宙观、天下观、社会观、道德观的重要体现，同科学社会主义价值观主张具有高度契合性。这种契合性，造就了一个有机统一的新的文化生命体，让马克思主义成为中国的，中华优秀传统文化成为现代的，让经由“结合”而形成的新文化成为中国式现代化的文化形态。
党的十八大以来，以习近平同志为核心的党中央高度重视对中华优秀传统文化的传承和发展，以对文化在历史进步中的地位作用的深刻认识，以对文化的精神特质和历史传承的正确把握，以对文化复兴和文明进步的不懈追求，开辟了马克思主义基本原理同中华优秀传统文化相结合的新境界。“第二个结合”，是我们党对马克思主义中国化时代化历史经验的深刻总结，是对中华文明发展规律的深刻把握，表明我们党对中国道路、理论、制度的认识达到了新高度，表明我们党的历史自信、文化自信达到了新高度，表明我们党在传承中华优秀传统文化中推进文化创新的自觉性达到了新高度。
习近平总书记关于文化建设的新思想新观点新论断，立足中华民族伟大复兴的现实要求，深刻阐述中华优秀传统文化的历史渊源、发展脉络、思想精华、鲜明特质，进一步明确中华优秀传统文化作为根基和命脉的时代价值。“第二个结合”是又一次的思想解放，让我们能够在更广阔的文化空间中，充分运用中华优秀传统文化的宝贵资源，探索面向未来的理论和制度创新。
——把马克思主义思想精髓同中华优秀传统文化精华贯通起来，筑牢了我们在世界文化激荡中站稳脚跟的根基。
2021年3月，武夷山九曲溪畔，习近平总书记走进朱熹园，看到墙上“国以民为本，社稷亦为民而立”的朱熹民本思想经典论述，驻足凝视良久。2018年6月29日，习近平总书记主持十九届中共中央政治局第六次集体学习时，引用的正是这句古语。
陕北打坝种地，吟诵范仲淹的名句“先天下之忧而忧，后天下之乐而乐”；正定走村入户，感悟郑板桥的心声“些小吾曹州县吏，一枝一叶总关情”；宁德翻山越岭，体味寿宁县令冯梦龙的为民举措，还有“三言”中的警句箴言……新故相因、道理相承，人民领袖深沉的人民情怀、笃定的人民至上理念，植根历史的中国，也源于马克思主义群众观与中国传统民本思想的结合。
习近平总书记强调：“要把坚持马克思主义同弘扬中华优秀传统文化有机结合起来，坚定不移走中国特色社会主义道路。”进入新时代，习近平总书记以护文明之火种、传永续之文脉的崇高使命感，全方位、多角度阐释中华文化的独特创造、价值理念、鲜明特色，展示了对待中华优秀传统文化的科学态度。习近平总书记关于文化建设的新思想新观点新论断，既从中华优秀传统文化中汲取治国理政的理念和思维，又以马克思主义引领中华优秀传统文化在当代的传承和发展，让中国特色社会主义道路有了更加宏阔深远的历史纵深，拓展了中国特色社会主义道路的文化根基。中国式现代化赋予中华文明以现代力量，中华文明赋予中国式现代化以深厚底蕴。
一条陆路，一条海路，2013年秋，在世界版图上，两条始自中国的交通大动脉壮阔而恢弘，绵亘万里的古丝绸之路重现世界视野。近十年来，共建“一带一路”已吸引全球超过3/4的国家参与，为共建国家创造42万个工作岗位，高质量共建“一带一路”成为造福沿线国家和地区人民的大事业、深受国际好评的大平台。
和羹之美，在于合异。习近平总书记指出：“中华民族历来讲求‘天下一家’，主张民胞物与、协和万邦、天下大同，憧憬‘大道之行，天下为公’的美好世界。”构建人类命运共同体理念，正是对中华优秀传统文化价值观念和精神血脉的现代化、时代化，形成共建美好世界的最大公约数，成为引领时代潮流和人类前进方向的鲜明旗帜。
今天的中华文化，正展现出更旺盛的生命力、更强大的感召力。在相互贯通中，习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想因汲取中华文化精华而更具中国特色、中国风格、中国气派，中华文化因融入伟大时代精神而更好地跨越时空、超越国界、展现永恒魅力。
——把马克思主义思想精髓同人民群众日用而不觉的共同价值观念融通起来，凝聚起在新时代新征程上团结奋斗的力量。

习近平总书记强调：“核心价值观是一个民族赖以维系的精神纽带，是一个国家共同的思想道德基础。如果没有共同的核心价值观，一个民族、一个国家就会魂无定所、行无依归。”以社会主义核心价值观引领文化建设，弘扬以伟大建党精神为源头的中国共产党人精神谱系，注重用中华优秀传统文化、革命文化、社会主义先进文化培根铸魂，广泛开展中国特色社会主义和中国梦宣传教育，推动理想信念教育常态化制度化，完善思想政治工作体系，培养堪当民族复兴重任的时代新人，建立健全党和国家功勋荣誉表彰制度，深化群众性精神文明创建，建设新时代文明实践中心……党的十八大以来，以习近平同志为核心的党中央从巩固全党全国各族人民团结奋斗的共同思想基础、巩固党的执政地位的战略高度，把培育和践行社会主义核心价值观作为凝魂聚气、强基固本的基础工程，作为一项根本任务，使之像空气一样无处不在、无时不有，成为全体人民的共同价值追求，成为我们生而为中国人的独特精神支柱，成为百姓日用而不觉的行为准则，理想信念的根基更加牢固，精神文明的花朵愈发灿烂。
从挖掘阐发中华优秀传统文化精华，推动创造性转化、创新性发展，到推进文物和古籍保护利用工作、实施中华优秀传统文化传承发展工程，从大力推动文物资源数字化转化、数字化共享，到推动中华文明探源，将中国文明历史研究引向深入……在新时代伟大变革中，中国特色社会主义文化建设气象一新、格局一新，中华文化的“一池春水”被彻底激活，在新时代展现出蓬勃生机、焕发出巨大活力。中华优秀传统文化的风骨神韵、革命文化的刚健激越、社会主义先进文化的繁荣兴盛在新时代伟大实践中融为一体，为全面推进中华民族伟大复兴提供了更为主动、更为强大的精神力量，也为人类文明进步提供了正确精神指引。
In May 2023, the leaders of China and the five Central Asian countries "Chang'an Fu joined hands". Among the gifts given to the heads of state of Central Asia is one "He Zun".

From the Han and Tang dynasties of the past and the clothes of all nations, to today's great country style and common destiny, a China that has changed with each passing day, a culture that has been eternal and modern, and has innovated the old, is being displayed in front of the world with an eclectic and inclusive open mind.

Shengping Revision Ceremony, Shengshi Revision Text. In the autumn of 2022, the major cultural project "Fuxing Bunko" was published. The Emperor's magnum opus, a tribute to the century-old quest for rejuvenation by generations of benevolent people; The words echo the sonorous sound of an ancient people moving towards rejuvenation.
"Cultivating history and establishing classics, preserving history to enlighten wisdom, and educating people is a tradition of the Chinese nation that has lasted for thousands of years." General Secretary Xi Jinping personally wrote the preface to the "Rejuvenation Library", issuing a strong voice of the times to "strengthen historical self-confidence, grasp the general trend of the times, and take the Chinese road".
Walk in triumph, not far from mountains and seas; Take advantage of the momentum, not limited by the sun and the moon. The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China drew up a grand blueprint for comprehensively building a modern socialist country and comprehensively promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese-style modernization. To build a strong socialist cultural country and create new splendor of Chinese culture, we must base ourselves on the central task of the whole party and the people of the whole country, and on the overall situation of building a strong country and national rejuvenation.

The more arduous the task, the higher the ambition; The more mountains and rivers, the more ambitious we must be. On the way forward, we should take the prosperity and strength of the country, national rejuvenation, and people's happiness as our own responsibility, establish a strong aspiration and be a struggler, establish the ambition of surpassing our predecessors on the basis of inheriting our predecessors, have the courage to overcome the "roadblocks" and "stumbling blocks" on the way forward, and cross the "Loushan Pass" and "Laozikou" on the road to rejuvenation.
