On the occasion of the centenary of the party, the movie channel program center organized all party members and cadres and employees to listen carefully to General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech at the conference celebrating the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China for the first time, and everyone was encouraged, enthusiastic, and strongly felt the pride and pride of being a Chinese "entering China without regrets in this life". The speech is lofty, profound, full of self-confidence, and urging people to forge ahead, which is a Marxist programmatic document reflecting the latest development achievements of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics in the New Era, and has important political, theoretical and practical significance.

Looking back at the centuries and years, the birth of the Communist Party of China was a major event that broke new ground, and the Communist Party of China led the Chinese people to achieve an unprecedented great historical leap, from standing up and getting rich to becoming strong. General Secretary Xi Jinping summed up with "three profound changes": it has profoundly changed the direction and process of the development of the Chinese nation after modern times, profoundly changed the future and destiny of the Chinese people and the Chinese nation, and profoundly changed the trend and pattern of world development. We must keep firmly in mind the original mission of the Communist Party of China and make unremitting efforts to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. This is because the history of the Chinese nation for more than 180 years since modern times, the history of the Communist Party of China for more than 100 years since its founding, and the history of the People's Republic of China for more than 70 years since its founding have all eloquently proved such an unbreakable truth: Without the CPC, there would be no new China, without the CPC there would be no great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and it was history and the people who chose the CPC.

General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech can be summarized as follows: "a solemn declaration", "a great dream", "four great achievements", "a great spirit", "nine musts", "a ardent hope", and "a call".

The great spirit of party building is the root of the spiritual genealogy of the Communist Party of China

In his speech, General Secretary Xi Jinping put forward the great spirit of party building for the first time: adhere to the truth, adhere to the ideal, practice the original intention, undertake the mission, not afraid of sacrifice, heroic struggle, loyalty to the party, and do not live up to the people. The great spirit of party building is the root of the CPC's strength, the source of its spirit, and the root of the CPC's spiritual genealogy.

In his important speech at the recent mobilization meeting for the study and education of party history, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: Over the past hundred years, the CPC has formed great spirits such as the spirit of Jinggangshan, the spirit of the Long March, the spirit of the Zunyi Conference, the spirit of Yan'an, the spirit of Xibaipo, the spirit of Hongyan, the spirit of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, the spirit of "two bombs and one satellite", the spirit of special zones, the spirit of fighting floods, the spirit of fighting earthquakes and disaster relief, and the spirit of fighting the epidemic, and has built up the spiritual genealogy of Chinese communists. The reason why our party has flourished and endured hardships over the past century is that it relies on such a strong spirit of revolution and hard work.

The great spirit of party building proposed by General Secretary Xi Jinping this time is a sublimation and traceability of the spiritual genealogy of the Communist Party of China, which has extremely high theoretical significance and strong practical significance. In the face of major changes unprecedented in a hundred years, we must strengthen our ideals and beliefs, keep in mind the original mission, and never forget the road to come. As General Secretary Xi Jinping said: "Once the Communist Party of China was born, it established itself as its original mission to seek happiness for the Chinese the people and rejuvenation for the Chinese nation." "The pioneers of the Communist Party of China founded the Communist Party of China to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

"In order to have the courage to sacrifice more, dare to teach the sun and the moon for a new day." The spiritual genealogy of the Communist Party of China, especially the great spirit of party building, has also deeply inspired Chinese filmmakers, and Chinese filmmakers have never been absent in using movies to show the spiritual genealogy of the Communist Party of China, and they have always been working hard, with affection, and effort to set up a biography for heroes, praise for the spirit, and paint a portrait of the times, which fully embodies the responsibility and loyalty and dedication of Chinese filmmakers.

The strong leadership of the party is fundamental to the prosperity and development of Chinese films

The prosperity and development of Chinese films are inseparable from the party's overall leadership. This year marks the 116th anniversary of the birth of Chinese cinema, and through a comparative analysis of the century-old history of the Party and the history of Chinese cinema, it is not difficult to find that from 1931, 10 years after the founding of the Communist Party of China, the Party began to lead the film industry. Before the founding of New China, whether it was during the period of the left-wing film movement, the Yan'an Film Troupe, or the "Northeast Film Company", the predecessor of the Changchun Film Studio, the party's leadership over film was reflected in all aspects. After the founding of New China, the party's leadership over films was comprehensively strengthened, and a large number of classic films were filmed.

Since the Eighteenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Party Central Committee with General Secretary Xi Jinping as the core has attached great importance to and cared for the film industry, and Chinese films have made world-renowned achievements: the number of film screens is the first in the world, the film box office is second in the world, and the film output is third in the world.

In the face of the sudden outbreak of new crown pneumonia, Chinese filmmakers have overcome difficulties under the strong leadership of the party, forged ahead in unity, fought the pandemic and faced the big test, and achieved hard-won good results, and the film industry has taken the lead in resuming work and production in the world. This year, in order to celebrate the centenary of the founding of the party, a large number of fine films were launched around the "July 1st", such as the film "Shoudao People" that reflected the spirit of "people's model" Wang Jicai shoudao, the film "Revolutionary" and "1921" that reflected the great spirit of party building, the film "Chinese Doctor" that reflected the great anti-epidemic spirit, and so on. In the first half of this year, it achieved excellent results of 27.568 billion yuan at the box office, of which domestic films were the mainstay. It fully reflects that the prosperity and development of Chinese films are inseparable from the strong leadership of the party.

Adhering to the people-oriented approach is the foundation of China's film power

"The jiangshan is the people, and the people are the jiangshan." General Secretary Xi Jinping mentioned "the people" 86 times in his speech, and the people-centered concept runs through the whole text, highlighting the people's dominant position.

At the end of his speech, General Secretary Xi Jinping solemnly issued a great call: all Chinese Communist Party members! The Party Central Committee calls on you to keep firmly in mind your original mission, strengthen your ideals and convictions, practice the party's purpose, always maintain flesh-and-blood ties with the masses of the people, always want to be together and work together with the people, share weal and woe in the same boat through thick and thin, continue to make unremitting efforts to realize the people's yearning for a better life, and strive to win greater glory for the party and the people!

"I will live up to the people without myself." Adhering to the people's orientation is the foundation of the road to building a strong film country in China, and we filmmakers must always be with the broad audience, and take the people's dissatisfaction, high dissatisfaction, and non-acceptance as the starting point and foothold of all our work. The movie channel will adhere to the people-centered work orientation, go deep into life, take root in the people, closely integrate the study and education of party history that is currently in full swing, earnestly do practical things for the people and do good things, provide the people with more and better food for the spirit and culture of movies through "broadcasting movies, talking about movies, judging movies, and making movies," and consciously undertake the responsibility of "raising the banner, gathering people's hearts, cultivating new people, revitalizing culture, and displaying images."

Standing at the historical intersection of the "two hundred years" goal, as Comrade Wang Xiaohui, executive deputy director of the Central Propaganda Department and director of the National Film Administration, pointed out in his speech at this year's National Film Work Conference: "Chinese films are still in a golden period of development, and the journey of building a film power has begun, with bright prospects, promising future prospects, and promising prospects." ”

As an important window for the party and the state to publicize the ideological and cultural front and display the achievements of Chinese film development, the movie channel shoulders the important mission of leading the propaganda orientation of film public opinion, and is a witness, participant, recorder and disseminator of the vigorous development of China's film industry. We will persist in politicians running the stage, do a good job as the mouthpiece of the party and the people, and resolutely grasp the guidance, do a good job of passing the pass, guard the position well, and lead the team well. Give play to the role of the "national team" and "main force" of Chinese film publicity, undertake the important mission of promoting and organizing reviews for Chinese film publicity, and serve the overall situation of the work of the party and the state and the overall work of the film. We should stress politics, observe discipline, grasp reform, promote development, and strive to create a new situation in film propaganda and ideological work.

As a national mainstream film media spanning the fields of film, television, Internet, new media and other fields, movie channels will give full play to the advantages of all-media and the role of a bridge in the media industry, continue to cheer for excellent domestic films with high-quality communication, and help the high-quality development of Chinese films.

The movie channel will continue to do a good job in the exhibition and broadcast of the series of themed films "Brilliant History, Great Rejuvenation"; do a good job in the production and broadcast of the series of TV specials "Our Banner", "Film Party Lesson" and "My Story of Joining the Party"; do a good job in planning, producing and broadcasting the new film "Eight Steps of Sand" produced by the Film Channel to celebrate the centenary of the founding of the Party. The exhibition and broadcasting of other films fully demonstrates the brilliant achievements of Chinese films under the leadership of the Party.

We will take the in-depth study and implementation of the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's "July 1st" important speech as the primary political task at present and for a period in the future, and educate and guide the majority of party members and cadres to unify their thoughts and actions with the spirit of the speech. Strengthen ideals and beliefs, keep in mind the original mission, inherit the great spirit of party building, and gather strong forces for endeavor. Give full play to the role of party organizations as fighting bastions and the vanguard and exemplary role of party members, firmly grasp the right to guide and speak public opinion in films, and continuously improve political judgment, political understanding, and political execution. Continuously improve the political position, adhere to the party's overall leadership, enhance the "four consciousnesses", strengthen the "four self-confidence", achieve the "two safeguards", and make a good start for the "Fourteenth Five-Year Plan". In China's great historical journey of moving from a big film country to a film power and to realizing the second centenary goal of building a socialist modern power in an all-round way, we contribute our strength.
