Storyline


Chinese President Xi Jinping is known for his profound love of literature, and his words are often punctuated with wisdom from traditional Chinese culture. He quoted "The Great Learning" of "The Book of Rites" at a grand gathering on July 1, 2016, marking the 95th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China (CPC), to stress the importance of putting people first.

Speaking at the gathering, Xi quoted a classical saying: "Only if a ruler gains popular support from his subjects can he avoid losing his kingdom." This quote shows the recipe of the CPC's success: standing with the people and being faithful to its founding mission.

A Harvard study published last July reported that the Communist Party of China has a high rate of support and satisfaction among the Chinese people, at over 93 percent.

Since the CPC was founded on July 1, 1921, its mission has been to seek happiness for the Chinese people and rejuvenation for the Chinese nation.

"Never forget why you started, and you can accomplish your mission. The original aspiration and the mission of Chinese Communists is to seek happiness for the Chinese people and rejuvenation for the Chinese nation," said Xi.

Xi's classical quotes are not only to reflect on the experiences and lessons learned throughout history and to call to mind the ancient political principle of staying focused on the people, but also to stress that the Party stands with the people.

"The Party and the people stand together through thick and thin and share common goals. The Party's close ties with the people serve as a fundamental guarantee to overcome all difficulties and risks. As the ancient saying goes, 'De Zhong Ze De Guo, Shi Zhong Ze Shi Guo' (Only if a ruler gains popular support from his subjects can he avoid losing his kingdom)," added Xi.

Meng Man, professor at the Minzu University of China explained the significance of Xi's classical quotes.

Meng said that "Zhong" means "people" in Chinese. The saying, " De Zhong Ze De Guo, Shi Zhong Ze Shi Guo," means that if you win the support of the people, you win the country, and if you lose their support, you lose the country.

"President Xi Jinping quoted this classic not only to reflect on the experiences and lessons learned throughout history and recall the ancient political principle of staying focused on the people, but also to stress that the Party stands with the people. How did the Party play a leading role in helping China stand up, grow rich and become strong? The Party has accomplished this by putting the people's interests above all else, sharing weal and woe, and earning the wholehearted support of the people," said Meng.

CPC members' acting as the vanguard in the battle against the COVID-19 pandemic serves as a telling example of staying with the people.

Facing the COVID-19 pandemic, more than 39 million CPC members fought the virus on the frontline, and more than 13 million CPC members volunteered their services. Nearly 400 CPC members defended others' lives and safety at the cost of their own.

Xi, on many occasions, has stressed that everything the CPC does is for the well-being of the Chinese people, the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation as well as the peace and development of mankind, noting that the CPC will never waver in pursuing such a goal.

A case in point is the poverty eradication miracle China realized.

Since the 18th National Congress of the CPC, the CPC Central Committee has given top priority to the battle against poverty in its governance, and has organized the world's biggest and toughest poverty-relief battle in human history.

The Party has also sent over three million officials to the frontline to ensure not a single ethnic group, family or person is left behind on the nation's path to common prosperity.

Nearly 100 million people were lifted out of extreme poverty over the last eight years. That's about 1,500 people per hour. It also means China has fulfilled the targets of the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development 10 years ahead of schedule.
