The 24th issue of "Seeking Truth" published on December 16 will publish an important article "Inheriting and Carrying Forward the Party's Fine Revolutionary Tradition and Style, and Carrying Forward the Yan'an Spirit" by Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee, President of the State, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission.

The article emphasizes that the Seventh National Congress of the Party is an important milestone in the history of the Party, marking the maturity of our Party in politics, ideology and organization, and pointing out the right direction and opening up the right path for the Party to continue to move from victory to victory. The former site of the Yan'an Revolution has witnessed the glorious course of our party leading the Chinese revolution and exploring the modernization of Marxism in China during the Yan'an period. It is a book that can never be read. It is necessary to tell the story of Yang Jialing and the story of the Seventh National Congress of the Party in combination with reality.

The article points out that Yan'an is the holy land of the Chinese revolution and the cradle of New China. From 1935 to 1948, the Party Central Committee, Mao Zedong and other revolutionaries of the older generation lived and fought in Yan'an for 13 years, leading the Chinese revolutionary cause from a low ebb to a climax, achieving a historic turning point, and reversing China's future and destiny. This time, together with the comrades of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, it is to declare that the new central leadership will inherit and carry forward the fine revolutionary tradition and style of work formed by the party during the Yan'an period and carry forward the Yan'an spirit.

The article points out that the glorious tradition and fine style of work formed and carried forward during the Yan'an period, the Yan'an spirit, which is mainly composed of a firm and correct political direction, the ideological line of emancipating the mind and seeking truth from facts, the fundamental purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly, and the entrepreneurial spirit of self-reliance and hard struggle, is the precious spiritual wealth of the party and should be passed on from generation to generation.

The article points out that a firm and correct political direction is the essence of the Yan'an spirit. All comrades in the party must adhere to the correct political direction, resolutely implement the party's basic theory, basic line, and basic strategy, resolutely implement the decisions and deployments of the Party Central Committee, and continue to advance the great cause initiated by the older generation of revolutionaries. We must stand firm on the people's stand, practice the party's purpose, implement the party's mass line, maintain the flesh-and-blood ties between the party and the people, consciously integrate the people-centered development thinking into all work, and steadily promote common prosperity. The results of modernization will benefit all people more and more equitably. We should vigorously carry forward the spirit of self-reliance and hard struggle. No matter how rich our material life is in the future, we must not lose the spirit of self-reliance and hard struggle. We should be down-to-earth, work hard, concentrate on our own affairs, and put the development of the country and the nation on the basis of our own strength. It is necessary to inherit and carry forward the glorious tradition and fine work style left by the older generation of revolutionaries and Communists, have the courage to promote the party's self-revolution, unswervingly promote the comprehensive and strict governance of the party, and always maintain the party's advanced nature and purity. Ensure that the party has always become the strong leadership core of the cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics. We must carry forward the spirit of struggle, improve our ability to struggle, resolutely overcome various difficulties and challenges on the road ahead, and rely on tenacious struggle to open up new horizons for career development.

The article emphasizes that the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China has formulated the major policies of the party and the country at present and in the future, and described a grand blueprint for comprehensively promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese-style modernization. Let us embark on a new journey, towards a new goal, set out!
