In 1985, at the All-China Communist Youth League Ideological and Political Work Conference, it was proposed that it is necessary to strengthen and improve the ideological and political work of young people in the new period, and to cultivate and bring up a generation of communist newcomers with ideals, morality, culture, and discipline in the great practice of the four modernizations.
