Mao Zedong drafted instructions for the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China to the Party, proposing that rent reduction and production were the two major matters in defending the Liberated Areas. The instructions point out: The present task of our Party is to mobilize all forces, stand on the stand of self-defense, smash the Kuomintang's offensive, defend the Liberated Areas, and strive for the emergence of a peaceful situation. In order to achieve this aim, it has become a very urgent task to enable the peasants in the Liberated Areas to generally reap the benefits of rent reduction, to enable the workers and other working people to gain the benefit of increasing wages and improving their treatment as a discretionary measure; at the same time to enable the landlords to live and to make the industrial and commercial capitalists profitable; and to develop a large-scale production movement next year, to increase the production of grain and daily necessities, to improve the people's livelihood, to provide relief to the hungry and refugees, and to supply the needs of the army. Only when the two major tasks of rent reduction and production are done well can we overcome difficulties, aid the war, and win victory. The directive emphasizes that rent reduction must be the result of the struggle of the masses and cannot be a gift from the government. This is the key to the success or failure of rent reduction. This instruction is included in the fourth volume of the Selected Works of Mao Zedong.

When Deng Xiaoping met with Sankara, chairman of the National Revolutionary Committee of Burkina Faso, he proposed that opening up to the outside world should be based on self-reliance. He pointed out: Although it is difficult for a country to build behind closed doors, the policy of opening up to the outside world must also be based on self-reliance. It is necessary to formulate independent policies according to their own conditions. Only in this way can we get out of the predicament. In our own experience, there is great promise for economic revitalization as long as policies are right and are based on self-reliance. Since a nation has stood up, it can survive and develop.

In his speech at the conference celebrating the complete success of China's first manned space flight, Hu Jintao pointed out: The implementation of the manned spaceflight project has not only created great achievements that have attracted worldwide attention, but has also accumulated important experience for us to better implement the strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and education and the strategy of strengthening the country with qualified personnel, and has provided very important enlightenment: We must persist in taking scientific and technological progress and innovation as the guide, and strive to achieve a leap forward in technological development; we must persist in giving play to the political superiority of the socialist system. We must form a vivid situation in which all people work together to create a great cause; we must adhere to the principle of independent innovation and firmly grasp the initiative in the development of cutting-edge technology; we must persist in carrying forward the fine style of arduous struggle and unremittingly climbing with the spirit of advancing with the times. This speech was included in the Selected Important Literature Since the Sixteenth National Congress (Part I).

Xi Jinping gave a speech at the National University of Singapore. He stressed that China has always placed its neighbors in the primary position of the overall diplomatic situation and regarded it as its mission to promote peace, stability and development in its neighbors. China adheres to being kind to its neighbors and taking its neighbors as its companions, adheres to the peripheral foreign policy of good-neighborliness, good-neighborliness and rich neighborliness, adheres to the concept of neighborly diplomacy of sincerity and tolerance, adheres to the concept of common, comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable Asian security, and is committed to building a closer China-ASEAN community of common destiny and promoting the construction of an Asian community of common destiny. The idea of peaceful development is the intrinsic gene of Chinese culture, and stressing the principle of faith, reconciliation, and harmony among all nations is the basic connotation of China's peripheral diplomacy. China's prosperity is the trend, but it is not the law of history that a strong country must dominate. Since ancient times, China has advocated "the strong do not cling to the weak, and the rich do not insult the poor", and they are well aware of the principle that "although the country is large, it will perish if it is belligerent". China's adherence to the path of peaceful development is our strategic choice and solemn commitment. China is willing to integrate its own development more closely with the development of neighboring countries, and welcomes neighboring countries to take the "express train" and "free ride" of China's development, so that everyone can live a good life together. Neighboring countries are welcome to participate in the "Belt and Road" cooperation and work together to realize the vision of peace, development and cooperation.
He put forward a four-point proposal on China's plan to deepen cooperation with Southeast Asia and neighboring countries and seek common development under the new situation: First, jointly maintain peace and tranquility. The people of Asian countries should never be enemies, enhance mutual trust, and create good conditions for the development of Asian countries and the people to live and work in peace and contentment. The second is to deeply dock the development strategy. The people of Asian countries should concentrate on promoting development, improving people's livelihood, helping each other, and providing more momentum for each other's economic growth. The third is to actively carry out security cooperation. The people of All Asian countries should practice the Asian security concept, coordinate and promote regional security governance, jointly assume and respond to traditional and non-traditional security issues, and jointly seek a way for neighbors to get along with each other, respect and trust, assimilate differences, openness and inclusiveness, and win-win cooperation. The fourth is to continuously consolidate personal affinity. The people of Asian countries should expand people-to-people exchanges and cooperation, put the traditional concepts of "harmony" and "cooperation" into the way of getting along with each other, and pass on the torch of harmonious cooperation from generation to generation.

When meeting with all the representatives of the Ninth Council of the China Journalist Association and the representatives of the winners of the China Journalism Award and the Yangtze River Taofen Award, Xi Jinping stressed that doing a good job in the party's news and public opinion work and creating a good public opinion environment is a major event in governing the country and fixing the country and ensuring national security. He offered four hopes for journalists. First, we must adhere to the correct political direction, maintain a high degree of unity with the party Central Committee, adhere to the Marxist concept of journalism, adhere to the position of the party and the people, adhere to socialism with Chinese characteristics, and be a politically firm journalist. Second, it is necessary to adhere to the correct guidance of public opinion, thoroughly publicize the party's theory, line, principles, and policies, and thoroughly publicize the struggles and achievements made by the people of all nationalities throughout the country in realizing the goal of the "two hundred years" struggle and realizing the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, carry forward the main melody, release positive energy, and be journalists leading the times. The third is to adhere to the correct journalistic aspirations, improve the level of business, have the courage to improve and innovate, constantly improve and improve ourselves, and be a superb journalist. Fourth, we must adhere to the correct orientation of work, take the people as the center, care for the people, praise the people, carry forward the professional spirit, abide by professional ethics, work diligently, be willing to dedicate, and be journalists with excellent work style. In a word, it is to be a journalist trusted by the party and the people.
He pointed out: The China Journalist Association is a people's organization under the leadership of the party and a bridge and link between the party and the government and the press. It is hoped that the China Journalist Association will continue to make unremitting efforts, maintain and enhance its political, advanced, and mass nature, and better unite the vast number of journalists and truly become a "home for journalists."
