At the meeting to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping solemnly announced on behalf of the party and the people of all ethnic groups in the country that through the continuous struggle of the whole party and the people of all ethnic groups in the country, we have achieved the first centenary goal, comprehensively built a moderately prosperous society on the land of China, historically solved the problem of absolute poverty, and are moving towards the second centenary goal of building a modern socialist power in an all-round way. Building a moderately prosperous society in a country with a population of more than 1.4 billion is undoubtedly a world miracle that has attracted worldwide attention, and this miracle is the result of the unswerving pioneering and enterprising and hard work of all Chinese people along the road of socialism with Chinese characteristics under the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China and under the guidance of Marxism and the innovative achievements of its sinicization theory.
First, the leadership of the Communist Party of China has formed a strong cohesive force and a strong leadership core for building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way.
The key to handling China's affairs well lies in the party; building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way cannot be separated from the party. The founding of the Communist Party of China has profoundly changed the direction and process of the development of the Chinese nation since modern times, the future and destiny of the Chinese people and the Chinese nation. Under the leadership of the party, the Chinese people have won the great victory of the new-democratic revolution through bloody struggle, established a new China in which the people are the masters of their own affairs, realized national independence and people's liberation, and created fundamental social conditions for building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way. Since then, the party has united and led the Chinese and people to make unremitting efforts to realize the prosperity and strength of the country and the happiness of the people, and has created great achievements that have attracted worldwide attention in various aspects of economy, politics, culture, and society, and created institutional guarantees and material conditions for building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way. On this basis, the Eighteenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China clearly put forward the historical task of building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way, and the Nineteenth National Congress of the Party put forward new requirements for winning the decisive victory in building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way
The party's leadership has formed a strong core and mainstay of building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way. Since the Eighteenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping's far-sighted strategic decision-making, the responsibility of the leader of a big country, and the sincere feelings of the people have established the backbone of the whole party and the people of the whole country, and formed a strong core leadership and cohesion. The Party Central Committee has made accurate judgments on the basic national conditions and development trends from the overall situation, formulated scientific and rational development strategies, carried out timely and effective work arrangements, strengthened unified leadership and unified command, and ensured that the great practice of building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way is unified in pace and consistent in action. Party organizations at all levels have strengthened their "four consciousnesses," strengthened their "four self-confidences," and achieved "two safeguards." Leading cadres at all levels have taken the lead in commanding, strengthened their responsibilities, and faithfully fulfilled their responsibilities. Grassroots party organizations have given full play to their role as fighting bastions, and the broad masses of party members and cadres have fought in the most important, difficult, and dangerous places for poverty alleviation, with affection in linking up with and serving the masses, in publicizing and educating the masses, and in organizing and rallying the masses, and giving play to their exemplary leading role and political leadership.
Second, the guidance of Marxism and its theoretical achievements in Sinicization has formed a powerful ideological force and correct direction for building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way.
Always adhering to the guidance of Marxism and its achievements in sinicization theory and innovation is a distinctive feature of the CPC and an important magic weapon for the CPC to unite and lead the people to build a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way.
After the founding of New China, the Chinese Communists, with Mao Zedong as the outstanding representative, focused on realizing the "second integration" of Marxism with China's reality, and founded major achievements such as the Ten Great Relations Theory, the Basic Contradiction of Socialism, and the Theory of Contradictions Among the People, thus enriching and developing Mao Zedong Thought. In the new period of reform, opening up, and socialist modernization, the Chinese Communists, with Deng Xiaoping, Jiang Zemin, Hu Jintao, and other outstanding representatives, closely centered on and scientifically answered the core questions of "what is socialism and how to build socialism," "what kind of party to build and how to build the party," and "what kind of development and how to achieve development," founded Deng Xiaoping Theory, formed the important thinking of "three represents" and the scientific outlook on development, and constantly enriched and developed the theoretical system of socialism with Chinese characteristics. In the new era, the Chinese Communists, with Xi Jinping as the outstanding representative, closely centered on and scientifically answered the major issue of the times of "what kind of socialism with Chinese characteristics to uphold in the new era and how to develop socialism with Chinese characteristics", founded and continuously developed Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics in the New Era, and formed contemporary Chinese Marxism and Marxism in the 21st century.
These major theoretical innovations of the party have provided strong theoretical guidance for the development practice of building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way, and have also profoundly revealed the theoretical logic of building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way. Under the guidance of Marxism and its theoretical innovation achievements in sinicization, the party has led the people to profoundly grasp the general trend of world development and China's specific national conditions, formulate and implement scientific lines, principles, and policies, constantly promote new great social revolutions, and constantly create new historical glory. At the same time, the party has led the people to create and continuously improve the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, continuously promote the modernization of the national governance system and governance capabilities, form distinct institutional advantages, release strong governance efficiency, and provide a solid institutional guarantee for building a well-off society in an all-round way.
Third, the party's great practice of leading the people and its brilliant achievements have formed an inexhaustible source of strength and a solid material foundation for building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way.
The Communist Party of China has always firmly and thoroughly stood for the people, always practiced the fundamental purpose of serving the people, comprehensively implemented the party's mass line, always adhered to the people-centered development thinking, fully carried forward the people's historical creation role, and regarded the people's yearning for a better life as the goal of struggle.

The historic transformation from closed and semi-closed to all-round opening up has achieved a historic breakthrough from the relatively backward situation of productive forces to the total economic volume leaping to the second place in the world, the historic leap in the people's living standards from insufficient food and clothing to the overall well-off and to the all-round well-off; the country's economic, scientific, technological, cultural, and comprehensive national strength have advanced by leaps and bounds, creating great achievements in reform, opening up, and socialist modernization, and providing an institutional guarantee full of new vitality and material conditions for rapid development for building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way.
