General Secretary Xi Jinping's important "July 1st" speech put forward the major requirements of "nine musts" closely around "learning from history and creating the future", and provided basic guidelines for achieving the second centenary goal. The "Nine Musts" are the first to uphold the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China.
The key to handling China's affairs well lies in the party. The history of the Chinese nation for more than 180 years since modern times, the history of the Communist Party of China for 100 years since its founding, and the history of more than 70 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China have fully proved that without the Communist Party of China, there would be no new China and no great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. History and the people have chosen the Chinese Communist Party. The leadership of the Communist Party of China is the most essential feature of socialism with Chinese characteristics, the greatest advantage of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, the fundamental and lifeblood of the party and the state, and the interests and destiny of the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country. Today, we are moving towards the second centenary goal. To study and implement the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's "July 1st" important speech, we must use history to reflect reality, look at the future, see clearly why we have been able to succeed in the past from the party's century-old struggle, and understand how we can continue to succeed in the future, so as to more firmly and more consciously remember the original mission on the new journey, hold high the banner, innovate and work hard, and condense the majestic force of creating a great cause.
In the study of the party, the government, the military, and the people, in the east, west, south, and north, the party leads everything. To adhere to the party's overall leadership on the new journey, we must first safeguard the authority and centralized and unified leadership of the party central committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core. Firmly establish the "four consciousnesses," strengthen the "four self-confidences," achieve the "two safeguards," and consciously maintain a high degree of consistency with the party Central Committee in ideology, politics, and action. We must bear in mind the "two overall situations," keep in mind the "great power of the country," and enhance our ability to view the overall situation, seek the overall situation, and grasp major issues. For Changsha, it is necessary to learn and deeply understand Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, study and implement well the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech on hunan, and continuously improve political judgment, political understanding, and political execution. Consciously be a firm practitioner and strong promoter of major strategies such as the rise of the central region, the construction of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, and the coordinated development of the urban agglomeration in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, accelerate the implementation of major development strategies and key tasks such as the "Three Highlands", the Changzhutan Metropolitan Circle, and the Changsha Area of the Hunan Pilot Free Trade Zone, and strive to turn the grand blueprint drawn by General Secretary Xi Jinping into reality in Changsha first.
Things are in the quartet, in the center. To uphold the party's overall leadership on the new journey, we must give full play to the party's role as the core of leadership in overseeing the overall situation and coordinating all parties. Party organizations at all levels should implement the decision-making and deployment of the party Central Committee and higher-level party organizations, set the direction, manage the overall situation, and promote implementation. The Party's grass-roots organizations are the foundation of all the Party's work and combat effectiveness. We must give full play to the role of grass-roots party organizations as fighting bastions and the vanguard and exemplary role of party members, unite the broad masses around the party, unite all forces that can be united, mobilize all positive factors that can be mobilized, and provide a solid guarantee and strong joint force for building a modern new Changsha. It is necessary to continue to promote the new great project of party building in the new era, and embody loyalty to the party in performing duties and fulfilling responsibilities, serving the masses, and innovating and doing solid work. Let absolute loyalty to the party become the most distinctive political character of Changsha's party members and cadres and the most distinctive political background of Changsha's political ecology, and ensure that our party will always become the backbone of the people.
Forge ahead on a new journey and write a new chapter. Let us unite more closely around the PARTY Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core, hold high the great banner of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and make unremitting efforts to implement the "three highs and four new" strategy, promote high-quality development, and build a modern new Changsha!
