"Chinese young people in the new era should take it as their duty to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, enhance their ambition, backbone, and confidence to be Chinese, and live up to the times, Shaohua, and the expectations of the party and the people!" Today, the Communist Party of China has ushered in its centennial anniversary, and that poor and weak China has disappeared and is replaced by a rich and strong new China! Modern social science and technology are prosperous, culture is flourishing, cities are prosperous, and the fruits of civilization are placed before our eyes like gifts, and the youth of the new era have both more choices and greater responsibilities. A generation has a generation's mission, so how to take the long march of our generation? I think that only by abiding by the original intention and constantly enhancing the ambition, backbone and confidence can we truly write the answer sheet of the times and show the unique style of Chinese youth!

Young people need to be ambitious.

Li Dazhao once said, "The civilization of youth, the civilization of struggle, the struggle with circumstances, the struggle with the times, and the struggle with experience." Therefore, young people, the king of life, the spring of life, the glory of life. "Young people, must have the ambition to dare to promise the first-class Qingyun in the world, but also bear the bookish spirit of pointing out the country and the mountains to stimulate the writing, and even more with the pride of "drinking ice for ten years, the blood is difficult to cool". A hundred years ago, a group of young people with common faith created a great era; a hundred years later, in the face of the sudden epidemic, the post-90s and post-00s rushed to the forefront, and proved with practical actions that this generation is not a "Beat generation", but a good and reliable new generation!

Young people should aspire to be ambitious and very determined. In the centenary of the founding of the party, we have finally achieved the goal of the first centenary struggle, completely eliminated absolute poverty, and built a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way. The fulfillment of this grand goal is inseparable from the arduous struggle of generations of Chinese sons and daughters. "Please rest assured that the strong country has me!" Today, as young people in the new era, we must also take up the baton in the hands of our predecessors, combine personal values with the needs of the motherland and the people, and strive toward the goal of building a socialist modern power in an all-round way with a fuller and more exuberant attitude!

Young people must not be spineless.

The motto of the painter Xu Beihong is: "People must not be proud, but they must not be proud." "This is exactly what happens to a country and a nation. The outbreak of the Opium War in 1840, the September 18 Incident in 1931, the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea in the 1950s... It is precisely one chinese son and daughter who has stepped forward at a critical moment, used this indomitable pride, adhered to the lofty belief of serving the country and the people, and stubbornly carried China with flesh and blood! And in the new era, we have never dared to abandon this backbone! The sons and daughters of Huaxia are more than a few, daring to call the sun and the moon for a new day. The future of a people depends on their youth. Only when the younger generation has ideals, skills, and responsibilities can this nation have hope and this country can have a future! As a new youth, we also know that only firm faith, selfless dedication and down-to-earth struggle can truly shoulder the heavy responsibility of the times.

Young people cannot afford to be less confident.

The Chinese civilization is in the same vein, and the predecessors have left us a vast sea of precious cultural wealth. Standing on the fertile soil of excellent traditional culture and looking at the distant mountains of history, how can we make culture better continue, and how can we make it glow with new vitality? Youth should go first! Henan's "Dragon Boat Wonderful Tour" fire out of the circle of underwater performance of roselle dance "Prayer", as well as a series of traditional elements such as national style, Dunhuang, forbidden city and so on have received widespread attention from everyone... Today's young people are not only satisfied with learning excellent traditional culture, but also willing to boldly conceive, actively innovate, integrate tradition into the times, let "antiques" come alive, let history move, and let tradition wake up. Not forgetting the original, not keeping the old, more and more young people let the world see Chinese culture. Before there were ancient people's pearls shining, and then there are people who come to the group of talents, try to see tomorrow's China, it will be more brilliant!

Standing at the intersection of two hundred years, the times are about to sound a new clarion call. Contemporary Chinese youth are a generation that is in the prosperous world, shoulders heavy responsibilities, and struggles with peers in the new era. We are well aware of our mission and will forge ahead and live up to the great trust of the party and the people. Striving for a new era, we are ready!
