Human history always follows the law in seemingly accidental events. The magnificent one-hundred-year party history is the inexhaustible driving force for our continued struggle. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out, “Looking back at the road of struggle in the past and looking at the road ahead, we must study and summarize the party’s history well, and carry on and carry forward the party’s successful experience.” The code for whether a nation or a political party can succeed forever lies to a large extent in the cognition of successful experience and the grasp of historical laws. The deeper the understanding of history, the more mature the grasp of the law and the more active the grasp of the future. At the centenary anniversary of the founding of our party and the beginning of the new journey of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way, the Sixth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Party was successfully held. General Secretary Xi Jinping delivered an important speech. The Resolution on Major Achievements and Historical Experience (hereinafter referred to as the Resolution) is a great milestone. The “Resolution” passed by the plenary session is a golden key for us to “see clearly why we were able to succeed in the past and understand how we can continue to succeed in the future”. It further strengthens our historical confidence, assumes historical mission, masters historical initiative, and innovates. The century-old glory provides powerful guidance.
Absorb the power of self-confidence from the centuries of party history, and strengthen the confidence and backbone to defeat all powerful enemies, overcome all difficulties, and win all victories
“Confidence in a life of two hundred years will be a flood of 3,000 miles.” Historical self-confidence is a deep and lasting power of a nation and a political party. At every important historical juncture, our party can always correctly analyze the situation of the world, the country, and the party, accurately grasp the historical stages, and draw the strength to move forward from looking back. In 1945, the Seventh Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee of the Party passed the “Resolution on Certain Historical Issues,” which promoted the great victory of the Chinese revolution and led us to our feet. In 1981, the Sixth Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Party passed the “Resolution on Certain Historical Issues of the Party Since the Founding of the People’s Republic”, which promoted a great new revolution in reform and opening up and led us to become rich. The “Resolution”, which was born in the centuries of the founding of the party, is a new era in which we have entered a new era of strengthening and a new journey for the second centenary goal. It is another assembly and mobilization sent to the whole party, which will surely guide us to win new great victories. .
Looking back on the glorious history of the party’s centuries of struggle, it is necessary to figure out where the “historical self-confidence” comes from. Mao Zedong pointed out, “When we look at history, we will see the future.” Without a glorious history, there would be no confidence today. In today’s world, if you want to say which political party, country, and nation can be confident, then the Communist Party of China, the People’s Republic of China, and the Chinese nation have the most reason to be confident. From the questioning of “how long the red flag can last” to the admiration of “why can the Chinese Communist Party” today, the party led the people to create “four great achievements”, produce “five historical significances”, and form “ten historical experiences.” , Announcing to the world the end of the “End of History”, the collapse of the “China Collapse Theory”, and the failure of the “Socialist Failure Theory”, the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation has entered an irreversible historical process. As long as we strengthen the “four consciousnesses”, strengthen the “four self-confidences”, achieve the “two safeguards”, continue to struggle, and never slack off, we will surely be able to “firmly control the destiny of China’s development and progress in our own hands.”
Looking forward to the new journey of the second centenary goal, we must realize the confidence of “historical self-confidence”. Marx pointed out that “every social era needs its own great person. If there is no such person, it will create such a person.” Mao Zedong vividly said, “Does a peach have several cores when it is cut? There is only one core.” Throughout the centuries of party history, whether it is the fate of the Long March hanging by a thread or the future after ten years of civil strife, when the situation is turbulent, there will be “such figures” and “leadership cores” that emerge and lead the victory. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has turned the tide of the situation and helped the mansions with his great politician, thinker, and strategist’s bold loyalty and “I will have no self, and will live up to the people”. Leading the great ship China to sail through dangerous beaches and fight evil waves, ushering in a new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and cutting the waves towards a new journey towards the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Practice has fully proved that General Secretary Xi Jinping is worthy of being the core of the party, the commander-in-chief of the army and the leader of the people, supported by the whole party and loved by the people. He is worthy of being the great helmsman leading the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era!
The “Resolution” emphasizes that the party establishes the core position of Comrade Xi Jinping’s Party Central Committee and the core position of the whole party, and establishes the guiding position of Xi Jinping’s thinking on socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era. This is the greatest political achievement, the most important historical experience, and the most solemn historical conclusion of our party in the new era. As long as we firmly defend the “two establishments”, resolutely achieve the “two maintenances”, and move forward resolutely in the direction guided by General Secretary Xi Jinping, we will anchor the fixation star for new and great victories and strengthen the victory over everything. Difficult ambition, backbone, and confidence have strengthened the faith, conviction, and confidence in realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
For a century, the party’s news and public opinion front has always played an important role in guiding, shaping, and inspiring people, and has closely linked the party and the people. In the new era, we are shouldering heavier burdens and fulfilling greater responsibilities, and we must not relax. Since the establishment of China Central Radio and Television Station for more than three years, we have adhered to the leadership of Xi Jinping’s new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics. The answer is to take innovation as the main theme of the work, consolidate efforts to create the “headline project”, and continue to launch “Ping “Yu” near people-Xi Jinping likes allusions”, “Dare to teach the sun and the moon to change the sky”, “China in the classics” “China in Stories”, “Crossing the Yalu River”, “The Great Battle”, “Chinese Archaeology Conference”, and a large number of original boutique and “explosive” products, are popular at home and abroad; actively embrace the Internet and vigorously build “5G+4K/8K” +AI” strategic structure, leading, dissemination, and influence have been significantly improved. Not long ago, the main station CCTV Olympic Channel and its digital platform went live, and General Secretary Xi Jinping sent a congratulatory letter, which inspired us. The headquarter will keep in mind the advice of General Secretary Xi Jinping, give full play to the important role of the party’s main force of propaganda and reporting, persevere in the pursuit of excellence, create first-class, and strive to promote the integration and dissemination of “ideology + art + technology“, and meet the party’s second with excellent results. The top ten is held.
From the centuries of party history, forge the original aspiration, inspire mission, and spread the thoughts of Chinese leaders and tell the stories of Chinese leaders more firmly and consciously
History shows the future. From the past of our party, we can explain her present and predict her future even more. “Whether it is a person or a political party, the most rare thing is that it has gone through the vicissitudes of life without changing its original aspirations, and its true character remains the same.” No matter how far our party has gone over the past century, it has never forgotten its original mission and why it started. As General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out, “Everything we do is to seek happiness for the people, to seek rejuvenation for the nation, and to seek unity for the world.” The long river of history, the scourge of sand, and the vicissitudes of life, have always forged the original mission of the Chinese Communists. Turning to modern history, countless people with lofty ideals have suffered and fought, and failed to find a way out for China. Why “since there was the Communist Party of China, the face of the Chinese revolution has taken on a completely new look”? This is precisely because our party has always insisted that “the country is the people and the people are the country” and does not have any special interests of its own. In the years of revolution, construction, and reform, our party “aroused millions of workers and peasants to work together” and led the people to “cross the river by feeling the stones” in order to make the poor people stand up and get rich. In the new era, General Secretary Xi Jinping has led us to win the battle against poverty and build a well-off society in an all-round way, in order to “not let a poor masse be left behind”, “green myself will trickle down, and it will be clear and blue” and let the people live for thousands of years. A good day of dreams. Facing the future, our party will unswervingly uphold the people-centered development idea, and promote the all-round development of people and make all the people prosperous to make more obvious substantive progress.
Regardless of prosperity and adversity, our party always puts the people in the highest position in their hearts and never wavered; no matter what the situation changes, the Chinese people have recognized the leadership of the party and never change. Any attempt to separate and antagonize our party from the people will never succeed.
The tide of history is mighty. The great road is not alone, and the world is one family, demonstrating the historical responsibility of the Chinese Communists. Our party is a political party with a global vision and lofty ambitions. This vision abandons the law of the jungle and advocates win-win cooperation; this ambition is not to dominate the world, but to contribute to the world. Even in the early days of the founding of the “one poor and two white” new China, Mao Zedong still paid attention to the world and said with emotion that “China should make a greater contribution to mankind.”
Facing the profound evolution of the “two overall situations”, General Secretary Xi Jinping climbed high and looked far, surveyed the mountains and rivers, advocating and promoting the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind from the height of the general development of human society, and profoundly answered “What’s wrong with the world, what should we do?” The question of the times. Over the past eight years, the “Belt and Road Initiative” has been jointly built to connect the East and the West, across the past and the present, and has achieved solid and heavy achievements. We advertise to the world with actions that the big party is not big in size, size, and fist, but in big-mindedness, big structure, and big responsibility. As long as we always stand on the right side of history and stand on the side of human progress, that is the right way in the world, we will surely win the future.
On the road, the world is the public. General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important ideas such as people-centeredness and a community with a shared future for mankind, green water and green mountains are the golden mountains and silver mountains and other important ideas. They are the wisdom essence of Chinese culture and the common wealth of human civilization. They have won the hearts of the people in the international community and will have a profound impact. The progress of human civilization. When interacting with China Central Radio and Television Station, all conscientious international media professionals agree and admire General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important ideas and important ideas. In recent years, the headquarter has extensively expanded “media diplomacy” and has worked with overseas media to create “hand in hand” Latin American partners, “mutual trust and win-win” European partners, “cooperative development” ASEAN partners, “watch and help” African partners, and “Silk “Road TV Cooperation Community” and other international media cooperation platforms. The main station will further take up the mission of creating a world-class new mainstream media, give full play to the advantages of 44 languages, CGTN (China International Television Station) communication platform, and continue to deepen “favorite communication”, and firmly and consciously disseminate the thoughts of Chinese leaders in the new era. Tell the story of the Chinese leader, and guide the international community to understand the credibility, loveliness, and respectability of China in the new era.
Use the centuries of party history to insight into the general trend, explore the law, further grasp the historical initiative, and work hard to take a new road to rushing to the test
Mao Zedong said meaningfully, “I relied on summing up experience to eat.” Our party is a party with a strong historical consciousness, far-reaching strategic thinking, and philosophical thinking. It has always been good at drawing lessons from the depth of history that are beneficial to the development of reality, and finding our way forward from the laws of history. General Secretary Xi Jinping mentioned “historical initiative” three times in his important speech on the explanation of the “Resolution”, and “historical initiative spirit” twice in the “Resolution”, which fully embodies our party’s mental state of consciously and actively transforming history. Bravely stand the trend of the times and lead the broad mind of history.
Over the past 100 years, our party has painted a magnificent picture in the history of human development, and the realization of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation has entered an irreversible historical process. This is an extraordinary achievement of our party in firmly grasping the historical initiative. Historical materialism believes that historical development has its own laws, but people as the subject of history are not completely passive in it. “As long as we grasp the laws and general trend of historical development, seize the opportunity of historical change, take advantage of the trend, and work hard, we We will be able to move forward better.” This is the historical initiative. The suffering of the Chinese nation is magnificent. After the Opium War, our history was passive. We were slaughtered, bullied and faced with “the danger of being expelled from the ball.” Until there was the Communist Party of China, “since the Chinese learned Marxism-Leninism, the Chinese have turned from passive to active in spirit.” Entering the new era, General Secretary Xi Jinping led us to analyze the evolution mechanism and explore the laws of history from the long history, the tide of the times, and the global situation. He made the right choices at every major historical juncture, and provided a more perfect way to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. With the guarantee of the system, a more solid material foundation, and a more active spiritual force, the Chinese people stand among the nations of the world in a brand new posture of more self-confidence, self-reliance, and self-reliance. For a hundred years, the character of daring to fight and daring to win has been deeply integrated into the party’s genetic blood. After countless hurricanes and rains, “I will remain unmoved.” This is a powerful force for us to firmly grasp the historical initiative in the future.
For the sake of sacrificing so much ambition, dare to teach the sun and the moon to change the sky. From Mao Zedong’s stark thesis that “all reactionaries are paper tigers” to General Secretary Xi Jinping’s bold declaration that “the Chinese nation cannot be frightened or crushed”, no matter how strong the enemy is and how difficult the road is, we “have no calves” Shake, the waist will not bend”, and always “break a bloody path.”
Since the Eighteenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has led us to strengthen our physique in self-revolution, open a new era in the social revolution, and achieve a series of major victories in the fight against poverty and the war against the epidemic. The anti-corruption struggle has achieved an overwhelming victory and has been fully consolidated. The party’s ability to master historical initiative has been greatly enhanced. Embarking on a new road to rushing the exam, we must further promote the historical initiative, strengthen the “four consciousnesses”, strengthen the “four self-confidence”, achieve “two safeguards”, turn passivity into activeness, and turn negative factors into positive factors. We will surely be able to overcome the “four major tests”, overcome the “four dangers”, overcome obstacles, and move forward steadily.
A century-old party, full of vigor and prosperity. On the new Long March, we still have many “Loushan Pass” and “Lazikou” to conquer. “It is impractical to always want to live a peaceful life and not want to fight.” As the party’s major news and public opinion center, we must have the “two overall situations” in mind, keep fighting at all times, strive to enhance our authority and influence in the international public opinion field, and resolutely get rid of the long-standing “discourse hegemony” and “colored glasses” formed by the Western media. “. Since the beginning of this year, in response to Bloomberg’s false “global anti-epidemic rankings”, the headquarter has organized three rounds of “global netizens survey questionnaires” in the fight against the epidemic, and issued a series of “tracing to the United States” blockbuster reports and comments, which has effectively reversed the trend of international public opinion. In recent reports on the situation in Afghanistan, a large number of global exclusive videos from the headquarters became the main source of global media. The CGTN microphone became the only media microphone on the stage of the Taliban’s first press conference after the U.S. military withdrew. It continued to disclose the truth about the indiscriminate killing of innocents by the U.S. military and completely broke it. To overcome the embarrassment that the Chinese media can only act as “setters” in the past international emergencies.
Strengthening historical self-confidence, assuming historical mission, and mastering historical initiative, the three complement each other and form an organic and unified whole, which fully reflects the great achievements of our party’s centuries of struggle and the wisdom of historical experience, and fully reflects our party’s emphasis on summing up historical experience. The strong historical consciousness of being good at applying historical laws and courageously advancing the historical process fully demonstrates the firm political character, mature theoretical training, profound historical vision, and strong mission of the Chinese Communists, mainly represented by Comrade Xi Jinping. We firmly believe that under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core, we will be able to grasp new historical initiatives and create new century glory in the new historical journey!
