Cui Ming: We should draw wisdom from the history of the Party as a source of wisdom for the growth of young people

On January 3, 2019, General Secretary Xi Jinping sent a congratulatory letter to the newly established Institute of Chinese History of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. In the congratulatory letter, General Secretary Xi Jinping profoundly pointed out: History is a mirror, learning from the past and knowing the present, learning from history wisely. Attaching importance to history, studying history, and drawing on history is a fine tradition of the Chinese nation's more than 5,000 years of civilization history. Contemporary China is the continuation and development of historical China. General Secretary Xi Jinping has always attached importance to historical research and study, and he hopes that young people will attach importance to historical learning. He once stressed that "education in China's history, culture, and national conditions should be placed in a prominent position in the education of young people." The study of history can be seen as success or failure, learn from gains and losses, and know the rise and fall. As an important part of China's modern and contemporary history, the history of the development of the Communist Party of China profoundly reflects the vicissitudes of China's modern and contemporary society, rich in wisdom and nourishment, full of patriotic affection, containing forward energy, and can give young students great strength to thrive.

Young people should study the history of the Party

Study party history and review the background of the party's growth

In modern China, the wind and rain are like obscurity, and the Qing Dynasty government deeply feels that the country will not be a country, and tries to turn the tide through foreign affairs and the New Deal, and to help the building fall. On the bus to the book, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, all strata of society are trying in their own way to save this soon-to-be-annihilated Heavenly Kingdom. It was this turbulent society that gave birth to the most revolutionary Chinese Communist Party. They originate from the people and are well aware of the sufferings and needs of the toiling masses; For the sake of the people, they are concerned about the reform and development of thousands of households.

Study the history of the Party and understand the Party's struggle experience

In 1937, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression broke out in an all-round way, and the Chinese nation reached a critical juncture of life and death. In the face of the most serious invasion of foreign enemies in modern times, the Chinese people fought with the same enemy and rose up on all fronts to resist. The Communist Party of China persisted in building the anti-Japanese base areas and persisted in relying on the people's war, which was extremely arduous and arduous, and endured hardships and dangers. It was in this kind of ice and snow quenching that the Most Capable Chinese Communist Party was trained. They fought bloody battles, led the people to fight for national independence, regarded death as a homecoming, and united all ethnic groups to recover the mountains and rivers.

Study the history of the Party and be familiar with the development process of the Party

40 years ago, China's socialist construction came to the brink of being almost buried. At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, New China was poor and white, and through thirty years of construction, it accumulated a considerable material foundation, but it also gave rise to the confusion of where socialism should go. It is precisely this endless twist and turn that has tempered the Chinese Communist Party, which has the most sense of change. They are firm in their convictions and firmly believe in Marxism; They have the courage to explore, and with the courage of self-revolution of heroes who have broken their wrists, they have promoted the development of socialist theory and practice in an unprecedented direction, providing mankind with a Chinese model of social development.

Second, young people should feel the history of the Party

Feel the history of the Party and understand the hardships of the Party's development

In 1921, at the beginning of its founding, the Communist Party of China had only about fifty members in the whole country. From the Nanchang Uprising to the Autumn Harvest Uprising, from the Long March of the Red Army to the establishment of armed forces behind enemy lines, the Communist Party of China has withstood the test of various tribulations from the very beginning of its founding. But they did not fall in the blood pool of various warlords, did not fall in the thorns of the snowy mountains and meadows, did not fall in the artillery fire of the Japanese and Kou American imperialists, experienced the baptism of artillery fire, firmly faced any test, and did not change their original intentions. We must understand the Chinese Communist Party, which has been working the road of growth and has never slackened off. Difficult circumstances, arduous tasks, and arduous growth have repeatedly plunged them into a dangerous situation, but they have also created their revolutionary optimism and fearless spirit of sacrifice, and created their stoic and tenacious willpower and unremitting vitality.

Feel the history of the Party and the courage of the Party to change itself

The Three Bays reorganization built the branch on the company, emphasizing the party command of the gun; The Zunyi Conference adjusted the direction of the Party's advance and changed the operational strategy of the Red Army; The revolutionary base areas in Shaanxi-Gansu-Gansu-Bian built markets and built democratic reforms. The Chinese Communists have never lacked consideration in adapting measures to local conditions and have never lacked the courage to change themselves. The reform and opening up that determined China's future direction 40 years ago and affected the development of the world today fully demonstrated China's wisdom to the world. After the ordeal of thinking, the Chinese Communist Party has more wisdom in handling various crises. Fixed patterns, solidified ideas, solid patterns do not allow them to move forward step by step. Born in sorrow, died in comfort. It is not that they want to change their course, but that they have a deeper and more accurate understanding of the guiding ideology; Breaking the old drawbacks, inherent in the pain of breaking the wrists of strong men, but it has the effect of scraping bones and healing poison, which can make them more calm and confident, mature and calm.

Feel the history of the Party and learn from the growth experience of revolutionary leaders

In his youth, Mao Zedong once vowed that "what is the husband is full of, he will look at the universe as rice", and after this," in the era of "vicissitudes of the sea", he never changed the broad feelings of "Kunpeng hitting the waves" and the ideal ambition of "the sun and the moon in his chest are always new and beautiful". In his youth, Xi Jinping hoeed grass in the Liangjiahe River on the Loess Plateau, picked up grain and dung, and started from small things and grass-roots organizations. In the face of life's tribulations, he has not forgotten his commitment to serve the country and the people. Having gone through the tests of life, Chinese Communists have the ability to undertake lofty missions. Although the bumpy road to growth can change their understanding, it also reflects the preciousness of their attachment to ambitious goals; Although their unfortunate fate can smooth out their sharp edges, it can also temper their unremitting struggle.

Young people should inherit the history of the Party

Inherit the history of the Party and spread the brilliant ideas of Marxism

The emergence of the Communist Party of China was the result of the spread and development of Marxism. Since its founding, the Communist Party of China has naturally shouldered the glorious mission of disseminating, propagating, and studying the great ideas of Marxism. Since the May Fourth New Culture Movement, the Communist Party of China has begun to spread Marxism in China and apply it to the practice of China's revolution and construction. Proceeding from reality in everything, the Party adheres to the Marxist materialist dialectics, proceeds from the actual needs of the Chinese revolution, and formulates a development strategy that conforms to Chinese society. History is written by the people, and the party adheres to Marx's historical materialism, persists in taking the people as the center, and serves the people wholeheartedly. History has proved that these brilliant ideas have a powerful force and can guide us to solve various problems of social development. Contemporary young people are enjoying the crystallization of these wisdoms, and at the same time shouldering a major historical mission, and need to apply these brilliant ideas to the journey of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

Inherit the history of the Party and the revolutionary spirit of the Party

In the course of the struggle of the CPC in leading the broad masses of the people to carry out revolution and construction, it has cultivated and formed a series of "spirits" that manifest and reflect the national spirit, embody the requirements of the times, and unite the forces of all sides, greatly enriching and developing the Chinese spirit, and becoming the inheritors of these spirits. The spirit of the May Fourth Movement demonstrated "patriotism, progress, democracy and science." The spirit of the Long March demonstrates revolutionary optimism that is willing to endure hardships and is not afraid of hardships; Courageous fighting, indestructible revolutionary heroism; More pragmatic, independent innovation boldness; Collectivism that is good at unity and takes the overall situation into account. The spirit of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression manifests the patriotic sentiment of the rise and fall of the world and the responsibility of the people, the national integrity of treating death as a homecoming and preferring to die unyieldingly, the heroic spirit of not fearing violence and fighting to the end in blood, and the conviction of victory in perseverance and perseverance. The spirit of reform and opening up has greatly enriched the connotation of the national spirit and has become the most distinctive spiritual identity of the contemporary Chinese people. History has entrusted young people with heavy responsibilities, and young people should bravely shoulder the burden of history. Young people should transform their experience in studying party history into a spiritual motive force for casting brilliance and create a new spirit of the times in the process of spiritual inheritance.

Inherit the history of the Party and continue the Party's historical aspirations

From the very beginning of its founding, the Communist Party of China made a vow to seek national independence and national liberation, and fought unremittingly for it. From realizing the prosperity of the people and narrowing the gap between the rich and the poor to building a prosperous, strong, democratic, civilized, harmonious and beautiful socialism, and then to building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way, we will achieve the two great goals of "one hundred years" and realize the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. In the process of resolving the main contradictions in society, the Communist Party of China has continuously deepened its understanding of communism and constantly explained the connotation of communist construction. We come from history, we cannot forget our ancestors, we cannot forget the way we came from when we set out, and we cannot forget our original intention. In 2018, the first batch of post-00s entered the university campus. The babies of the century were about to embark on the journey of socialist construction and were about to become ordinary laborers building socialism in all walks of life. Young people must not forget the historical aspirations of their predecessors, because forgetting the aspirations of their predecessors will make the efforts of their predecessors abandon their efforts, and we will also lose key development opportunities in the hesitation of repositioning. With single-minded goals and perseverance, the young generation must pass on the torch on the road to realizing their dreams.

Let history speak, let the facts prove that looking back at the past storms and rains, witnessing the major choices of reform and opening up, and being in the great era of realizing national rejuvenation, young people will certainly be able to draw from this magnificent history the wisdom of understanding the current China, understand the party's historical development, understand the party's historical choices, and write a new historical chapter.
