"Show new achievements in the construction of 'two barriers', 'two bases' and 'one bridgehead', and strive to write a new chapter in Chinese-style modernization in Inner Mongolia." Recently, General Secretary Xi Jinping, who inspected and investigated in Inner Mongolia, emphasized this.
"Two barriers", "two bases" and "one bridgehead" refer to -
an important ecological security barrier in northern China and a security and stability barrier in the northern part of the motherland;
National important energy and strategic resource base, agricultural and livestock products production base;
Our country opened an important bridgehead to the north.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, he has visited Inner Mongolia three times and participated in the deliberations of the Inner Mongolian delegation during the National Two Sessions five times... The general secretary left many golden sentences full of true feelings and profound thoughts, pointing out the direction for the high-quality development of Inner Mongolia.
"Build a green Great Wall in the northern part of the motherland"

The general secretary is very concerned about the ecological problems in Inner Mongolia. Every time you go to an inspection and every time you leave a group, you must talk about "ecology".
Inner Mongolia is not only "an important ecological security barrier in northern China", but also a "beautiful landscape" and "green Great Wall" in northern Xinjiang...
"To coordinate the management of landscapes, forests, fields, lakes, grass and sand systems, the word 'sand' should be added here." At the deliberation site of the Inner Mongolian delegation to the 2021 National Two Sessions, the new proposal of the general secretary is eye-catching. Two years later, the general secretary came to Bayannur to further develop the pulse for desertification prevention and control - adhere to the integrated protection and systematic management of landscapes, rivers, forests, fields, lakes, grass and sand, and prevent and control desertification as the main direction of attack.
"Implement the return of farmland to forest, grazing land to grassland, balance between grassland and livestock, ban grazing and rest grazing", "persistently promote grassland forests, rivers and lakes, wetlands rest and recuperation"...
"Categorized policies, concentrated efforts to carry out large-scale desertification prevention and control in key areas, and constantly innovated and improved desertification control models"...
Considering both overall consideration and anchoring the key points, the general secretary promotes the sustainable ecological development of Inner Mongolia with a scientific view of ecology and development.
"You can't just stare at 'sheep, coal, soil, gas'"
General Secretary Xi Jinping has participated in the deliberations of the Inner Mongolia delegation to the National Two Sessions for five consecutive times, and has high hopes for the transformation and development of Inner Mongolia:
"We must not only focus on 'sheep, coal, soil and gas', we must vigorously cultivate new industries, new kinetic energy and new growth poles" and "implement the new development concept and strive to explore a new path of high-quality development oriented by ecological priority and green development".
The general secretary has always planned the economic development of Inner Mongolia from the perspective of transformation and development, and made it clear that Inner Mongolia "should be based on the characteristics of local resource endowments" and take a high-quality development path suitable for itself.

In Hohhot this time, the general secretary came to the Central Industrial Park to learn about the local development of new energy and new materials industry, and pointed out that promoting the transformation and upgrading of traditional energy industries, vigorously developing green energy, and expanding and strengthening the national important energy base are the top priorities of Inner Mongolia's development.
The general secretary asked Inner Mongolia to "actively explore a new path for the transformation and development of resource-based regions and accelerate the construction of a modern industrial system that reflects the advantages of Inner Mongolia's characteristics."
"Building an important bridgehead for China's opening to the north"
General Secretary Xi Jinping attaches great importance to Inner Mongolia's opening to the outside world, emphasizing that "Inner Mongolia is located in the 'three north', bordering Russia and Mongolia, has the unique advantage of developing border opening up and is the forefront of China's opening to the north", and should build Inner Mongolia into an important bridgehead for China's opening to the north.
During this inspection, the general secretary proposed to actively participate in the joint construction of the "Belt and Road" and the construction of the China-Mongolia-Russia Economic Corridor, improve the level of opening up, build an important bridgehead for China's opening to the north, and play a greater role in connecting domestic and international dual circulation. It is necessary to strengthen connectivity with the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, the Yangtze River Delta, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and the three eastern provinces, and better integrate into the domestic and international dual circulation.
On the one hand, it is necessary to open the door to expand opening up, on the other hand, it is necessary to accelerate its integration into the overall pattern of national development, and Inner Mongolia, which is deeply inland, will continue to expand new space for development in building a new development pattern.
"Deeply practicing the concept of watching and helping"
For the cadres and masses of all ethnic groups in Inner Mongolia, General Secretary Xi Jinping once put forward a four-word hope: watch and help each other.
Inner Mongolia is the earliest ethnic autonomous region established in China and has a glorious tradition in promoting ethnic unity.
When participating in the deliberations of the Inner Mongolia delegation, the general secretary told two touching stories: "working together to build Baogang Steel" and "3,000 orphans entering Inner Mongolia". The two good stories and the deep affection vividly interpret the brotherhood of compatriots of all ethnic groups who watch over each other and help each other in the same boat. The general secretary encouraged Inner Mongolia to cherish and continue to adhere to the glorious tradition of national unity and the lofty honor of "model autonomous region".

This time, the general secretary once again stressed that "these border ethnic areas cannot be left behind on the road to common prosperity" and that "forging a firm sense of the Chinese national community is the main line of the party's ethnic work in the new era, and it is also the main line of all work in ethnic areas."
Adhering to the concept of watching and helping each other, carrying forward the good tradition of linking the hearts and hands of all ethnic groups, the sons and daughters of the grassland work together to guard the frontiers of the motherland and create a better life together.
"Vigorously carry forward the 'Mongolian horse spirit'"
"White clouds float in the blue sky, and horses run under the white clouds." For thousands of years, Mongolian horses have galloped across the vast steppe, not only as a means of transportation and beloved companion for steppe people, but also as a spiritual feature of national culture.
"Although Mongolian horses are not as tall as foreign famous horses, they have strong vitality, endurance and strong physique. Like Mongolian horses, we must have a hard-working and indomitable spirit. General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly encouraged the cadres and masses of Inner Mongolia with the "Mongolian horse spirit".
On the new journey, facing the historical task of "striving to write a new chapter in the modernization of Inner Mongolia in Chinese style", the "Mongolian horse spirit" of enduring hardships and forging ahead will inspire the sons and daughters of the grassland to strengthen their confidence, embrace dreams, and gallop forward.
