"The historical task of the complete reunification of the motherland will certainly be realized"
-- Mainland Taiwan compatriots enthusiastically discuss General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech at the conference commemorating the 110th anniversary of the Xinhai Revolution
The conference to commemorate the 110th anniversary of the Xinhai Revolution was solemnly held in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on the morning of the 9th, and General Secretary Xi Jinping attended the conference and delivered an important speech. A number of mainland Taiwan compatriots said in interviews that General Secretary Xi Jinping's speech made them more convinced that the complete reunification of the motherland will certainly be realized, and compatriots on both sides of the strait will be able to jointly create the glorious cause of the complete reunification of the motherland and the great rejuvenation of the nation.
"When I was still in elementary school, I knew about the Xinhai Revolution and also admired the great man Dr. Sun Yat-sen. The precious spiritual wealth left behind by the Xinhai Revolution should be jointly inherited by compatriots on both sides of the strait. Taiwan compatriot Zhuang Chuanhong said.
Zhuang Chuanhong, who is 91 years old and has settled in Shanghai, carefully studied General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech word by word. "The Taiwan issue arose out of national weakness and chaos and will certainly be resolved along with national rejuvenation." This sentence deeply touched this Taiwanese veteran of the mainland who had personally experienced the prosperity and development of the mainland during the war period and the peacetime era.
Zhuang Chuanhong was born in Tainan, Taiwan. Because his father could not stand Japanese colonial rule, in 1938 the family of four moved to Shanghai. Due to the decades-long isolation of the two sides of the strait, it was not until the early 1990s that he was able to revisit his long-lost hometown.
Witnessing the motherland bid farewell to weakness and chaos and ushering in a great leap from standing up and getting rich to becoming strong, this made Zhuang Chuanhong, who had been working in the frontline of cross-strait exchanges for a long time, full of expectations for the peaceful development of cross-strait relations. "I hope that the younger generation on both sides of the strait can unite and work together to promote the peaceful reunification of the two sides of the strait and realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation."
Li Fangzhong, a young Taiwanese working in Wuhan, is in the land of the first righteousness of the Xinhai Revolution and has a deeper feeling for commemorating this important historical event. Looking back at the history of the 110 years since the Xinhai Revolution, the two sides of the strait have always been closely linked. The great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation requires the spirit of courage to innovate, the arduous struggle, and the unswerving march along the correct path. He said.
Li Fangzhong has been in the mainland for eight years and has witnessed the rapid development and changes of the mainland. After listening to General Secretary Xi Jinping's speech, he was more determined to stay on the mainland. "As young people in Taiwan who are developing on the mainland, we must firmly grasp the opportunity of the mainland's vigorous development, forge ahead, and work hard." Li Fangzhong said.
In the view of Zhao Renmin, assistant professor of Taiwanese nationality at Minnan Normal University, commemorating the Xinhai Revolution in the new era is of great significance. "We review the arduous course of the Xinhai Revolution and remember the glorious deeds of Dr. Sun Yat-sen and other revolutionary pioneers in their efforts to revitalize China, which is conducive to uniting the powerful forces of the sons and daughters of china at home and abroad, and is also a powerful attack on the historical concept of 'Taiwan independence.'"
"The fact that our ancestors came from the mainland cannot be erased, and the Taiwanese are of course Chinese." There are political figures on the island who have forgotten their ancestors because of their political purposes and attempt to split China, but they will not succeed. Zhao Renmin said, "Cross-strait reunification is a historical necessity, and no force can stop it." ”
General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out in his important speech that compatriots on both sides of the strait should stand on the right side of history and jointly create the glorious cause of the complete reunification of the motherland and the great rejuvenation of the nation. In this regard, Qian Zhenhan, a Taiwan compatriot working in Nanjing, is deeply impressed: "If compatriots on both sides of the strait unite more closely, they will be able to jointly realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation." ”
As early as 2001, Qian Zhenhan came to the mainland to develop. In 2015, he initiated the establishment of an entrepreneurial base, which has attracted more than 150 enterprises to settle in and promoted cross-strait economic and trade, scientific and technological and people-to-people exchanges.
"With the take-off of the mainland's economy, more and more Taiwan compatriots have come to the mainland to develop. On the mainland, we can enjoy equal treatment; overseas, we also feel more dignified. Only when the motherland is strong can the sons and daughters of China have a better life. Qian Zhenhan said, "Everyone is a point of light, and young people on both sides of the strait work together to gather into light." As a Taiwan compatriot, I feel extremely honored to have the opportunity to participate in the construction of the motherland and to match the integration and development of the two sides of the strait. ”
