"We must strengthen cultural self-confidence, undertake missions, work hard, and work together to create a new culture belonging to our era and build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation." At the critical historical juncture of the new journey of forging ahead and forging ahead for the great rejuvenation, General Secretary Xi Jinping issued a great call to build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation in the new era.

General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech at the symposium on cultural inheritance and development on June 6 aroused enthusiastic responses from all walks of life. Everyone said that General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech has a strong political, ideological, strategic and guiding nature, and it is necessary to take the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech as a guide, continuously deepen the understanding of the laws of cultural construction, better undertake the new cultural mission, and continue to promote cultural prosperity, build a cultural power, and build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation at a new historical starting point.

"Only by comprehensively understanding the history of Chinese civilization can we more effectively promote the creative transformation and innovative development of China's excellent traditional culture"

"From the overall strategic height of the development of the cause of the party and the country, General Secretary Xi Jinping has carried out all-round and in-depth thinking on the inheritance, promotion and innovative development of Chinese civilization, put forward new viewpoints and new theories, and creatively enriched and developed our party's thinking on cultural construction." As one of the six experts and scholars who spoke at the symposium, Wang Bo, vice president of Peking University, was thrilled and excited.

"The general secretary 'accurately painted' Chinese civilization with the five outstanding characteristics of continuity, innovation, unity, inclusiveness and peace." Wang Bo, who has studied Chinese philosophy for a long time, has a deep experience, "These five outstanding characteristics run through history and modernity, which is a comprehensive grasp of China's cultural characteristics and the spirit of Chinese civilization, and is also a profound thinking and magnificent drawing on the creation of a new culture from the perspective of Chinese-style modernization, pointing out the direction for the construction of modern civilization of the Chinese nation." ”

According to Xing Guangcheng, director of the China Frontier Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, the five outstanding characteristics of Chinese civilization proposed by General Secretary Xi Jinping are closely linked to form the overall characteristics of Chinese civilization. Chinese civilization has lasted for more than 5,000 years, "continuity" and "innovation" are its spiritual characteristics of integrity and innovation, "unity" and "inclusiveness" reflect the pattern of diversity and integration of the Chinese nation, and "peace" highlights the value concept of "neutrality and peace".

"In the important historical period of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, we should promote the Chinese nation to become a community of destiny with a higher degree of identity, stronger cohesion, and clinging together like pomegranate seeds." Xing Guangcheng said.

General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed that only by comprehensively understanding the history of Chinese civilization can we more effectively promote the creative transformation and innovative development of China's excellent traditional culture, more effectively promote the construction of socialist culture with Chinese characteristics, and build the modern civilization of the Chinese nation.

Xu Qinhua, a professor at the School of International Studies of Chinese Minmin University, was deeply touched by this: "The rise of all countries and nations is guided and based on cultural innovation and civilization progress. Only by creating a new form of civilization can the strength of the country be transformed into the prosperity of civilization. ”

"General Secretary Xi Jinping's high degree of cultural consciousness and cultural self-confidence and determination to build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation are not only necessary to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, but also to maintain and promote lasting peace and common prosperity in the world." Xu Qinhua said: In the new era, the CPC and the Chinese people will certainly be able to shoulder a new cultural mission and build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation in the process of promoting Chinese-style modernization.

"To open up and develop socialism with Chinese characteristics on the profound foundation of more than 5,000 years of Chinese civilization"

General Secretary Xi Jinping profoundly pointed out that it is the only way to open up and develop socialism with Chinese characteristics on the profound foundation of more than 5,000 years of Chinese civilization, and to integrate the basic tenets of Marxism with China's specific conditions and with China's excellent traditional culture.

Listening to General Secretary Xi Jinping's latest interpretation of the "two combinations", Han Zhen, director of the Academic Committee of Beijing Normal University, had a deep experience.

"The general secretary pointed out that the 'second combination' is another ideological emancipation. It is the 'second combination' that allows Marxism to produce a chemical reaction in the context of the cultural tradition of ancient civilization, shape new organic and vitality, and thus produce socialism with Chinese characteristics, which not only allows Chinese civilization to modernize, pioneers and promotes Chinese-style modernization, but also greatly enriches Marxism. Han Zhen said.

Retweet links, read news together, dive deeper... Dai Yuqi, professor of the School of Marxism of Zhejiang University, used the school's theme education reading class to lead the young teachers of the college to study General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech at the symposium on cultural inheritance and development for the first time.

In Dai Yuqi's view, the "two combinations" based on the historical experience of exploring the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics is a theoretical sublimation of the law of success, which meets China's current actual needs.

"Deep cultural roots are the solid support for us to stand firm in the world's cultural turmoil. It is precisely because of the 'combination of the two' that our socialist road has a more solid foundation and a deeper accumulation. Dai Yuqi said, "In future teaching and scientific research, we must fully understand and fully integrate the latest thesis of the general secretary, so that students can more deeply understand the spiritual essence of the 'two combinations', and become socialist builders and successors who master the magic weapon of success and continue scientific theories." ”

Stepping on the road must be the way, composing the chapter of the times. On the banks of the Pujiang River, Shanghai Ancient Books Publishing House, yellowed ancient books and classics are rejuvenated in the new era.

"General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech focused on the 'second combination'. It is precisely because socialism with Chinese characteristics was opened up and developed on the profound foundation of Chinese civilization for more than 5,000 years that it must be integrated with the excellent traditional Chinese culture. Lv Jian, Secretary of the Party Committee and President of Shanghai Ancient Books Publishing House, said, "This puts forward a higher goal and provides a broader vision for cultural inheritance and development. We should use the power of Marxist truth to activate traditional culture, inject new vitality into the publication of ancient books, and make our efforts for the innovation of Chinese civilization and the construction of new culture. ”

"Continue to promote cultural prosperity, build a cultural power, and build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation at a new historical starting point"

After studying General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech at the symposium on cultural inheritance and development for the first time, Zhang Jianguang, librarian of the Fujian Provincial Research Museum of Culture and History, could not calm down for a long time: "The general secretary pointed out that we must strengthen cultural self-confidence, adhere to our own path, and emphasize the realization of spiritual independence." This heavy speech is the strong voice of the times to create a new culture and build a new civilization! ”

Zhang Jianguang gave an explanation to General Secretary Xi Jinping at Zhuxi Garden in Wuyishan in March 2021. "Under the care and care of General Secretary Xi Jinping, Fujian Nanping has worked hard to create a benchmark for promoting traditional culture, and Zhuzi culture is 'coming alive' in Fujian Mountains and Minshui." Zhang Jianguang said, "We should further activate the vitality of Zhuzi culture, integrate it with the Sinicization of Marxism, and encourage the masses of the people to achieve greater achievements in material and spiritual civilization." ”

Dunhuang, China, a shining pearl on the Silk Road, bears witness to the convergence and integration of diverse cultures and the exchange and mutual learning between Eastern and Western civilizations. After studying General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech, Su Bomin, president of the Dunhuang Academy, especially deeply recognized the far-reaching significance of "openness and inclusiveness" for Chinese civilization.

Su Bomin said that the next step is to make use of the advanced concepts and technologies of the Dunhuang Academy in the fields of mural paintings, earthen sites, and digitization of cultural relics, further give play to the characteristics of multicultural exchanges, and further promote international cooperation with an inclusive, positive and confident attitude to help the cultural power and the construction of modern civilization of the Chinese nation.

"Listening to General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech at the symposium, I am deeply heartened and inspired." Fan Di'an, chairman of the China Artists Association, said that the general secretary made a comprehensive, systematic and in-depth exposition on a series of major theoretical and practical issues in the inheritance and development of Chinese culture with profound historical insight and excellent theoretical leadership, highlighting the creative view of Chinese civilization and Chinese culture, and providing a fundamental basis for enhancing cultural self-confidence and self-improvement and consciously carrying forward excellent traditional culture.

"As literary and art workers, we must adhere to integrity and innovation, hold high the torch of Chinese civilization, take the road of creative transformation and innovative development of excellent traditional culture, and contribute to the construction of modern civilization of the Chinese nation with the spirit of continuing tradition and facing the future." Van Dian said.
