During the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, to achieve the centennial goal of army building as scheduled and promote the modernization of national defense and the military with high quality, we must adhere to, utilize, and develop the important magic weapon of political building of the army, unswervingly adhere to and strengthen the Party's absolute leadership over the army, give full play to the unique advantages of political building of the army, and unite our efforts to promote the modernization of national defense and the military to move forward steadily and far.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Party Central Committee has led the People's Army to deepen political rectification and promote political building of the army with unprecedented determination and strength, achieving significant results. The army holds the gun, and there must be no one in the army who harbors ulterior motives against the Party, and there must be no hiding place for corrupt elements. We must unswervingly advance the anti-corruption struggle. At the beginning of the "15th Five-Year Plan," we must establish strict regulatory rules, closely monitor key links such as the flow of funds, the operation of power, and quality control, strengthen the supervision of major projects, strengthen the supervision of military-civilian integration, and ensure construction under the premise of supervision. We must promote the reform of military expenditure budget management, do a good job in the dynamic balance of military expenditure supply and demand, strengthen the whole-chain management and control and performance evaluation of expenditure use, and use every penny where it counts.
To complete the goals and tasks of modernizing national defense and the military during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, in the final analysis, we must rely on Party organizations at all levels to lead and promote. We must comprehensively strengthen the Party's leadership and Party building in our army, select and equip high-level Party committee teams, enhance the ability of grassroots Party organizations to independently grasp construction, and build Party organizations at all levels stronger and more powerful. We must adhere to the Party's management of military affairs, cadres, and industries, improve scientific decision-making capabilities, play a key role in tackling major tasks, resolving prominent contradictions, and solving development problems, and transform the advantages of Party leadership into development advantages.
We must strengthen the building of a revolutionary, professional talent team, unremittingly use the Party's innovative theories to cultivate people, consolidate the ideological foundation for officers and soldiers to listen to the Party and follow the Party, and ensure that modern weapons and equipment are in the hands of a revolutionary talent team. We must improve the systems and conditions for promoting talent development, systematically promote the cultivation of "four types of talents": joint operations command, new combat forces, high-level scientific and technological innovation, and high-level strategic management, and achieve coordinated development of people's abilities and qualities with the practice of strengthening the army.
We must vigorously inherit and carry forward the fine traditions of our Party and our army, promote the construction of a strong military culture in the new era, strengthen the cultivation and encouragement of advanced models, let the red gene be passed down from generation to generation, and make the new atmosphere more abundant. We must take the grassroots level as fertile ground for continuing fine traditions, actively explore the laws and beneficial practices of grassroots construction under the new situation, attach importance to grasping the work that manages the fundamentals, benefits the long term, and increases stamina, and build the foundation of troop construction and combat effectiveness more firmly.

Agenda: General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平) visited members of the Chinese Peasants and Workers Democratic Party, the Jiusan Society, the medical and health community, and the social welfare and social security sectors attending the CPPCC meeting, and participated in the joint group meeting.
With high altitude and a large medical service radius, Basang Zhuoma (巴桑卓玛), a member of the Medical College of Tibet University (西藏大学医学院), has a deep understanding of the prevention and treatment of altitude sickness. From the Qinghai-Tibet Highway (青藏公路) to the Qinghai-Tibet Railway (青藏铁路), and then to the Sichuan-Tibet Railway (川藏铁路), she spoke eloquently about the progress in the prevention and treatment of altitude sickness in several major projects, revealing the 沧桑巨变 (cāng sāng jù biàn - "great changes," dramatic changes over a long period of time).
"Altitude sickness has always been the biggest difficulty encountered in working and living in high-altitude areas." General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平) is concerned about the medical conditions in the Qinghai-Tibet (青藏) region: "Now the conditions and technical levels have caught up a lot, but this aspect still needs to be strengthened. To build a healthy China, the shortcomings in remote areas must be addressed. We should take multiple measures, and traditional Chinese medicine, Tibetan medicine, Mongolian medicine, Miao medicine, and other ethnic medicines are also our valuable assets."
"If key tasks are done well, the construction of a healthy China can be steadily advanced." The General Secretary stated the methodology.
What are the key tasks?
The National Health and Wellness Conference held 10 years ago defined the new era's health and wellness policy, namely, focusing on the grassroots, driven by reform and innovation, prioritizing prevention, emphasizing both traditional Chinese and Western medicine, integrating health into all policies, and building and sharing by the people.
"Adhere to the Party's leadership, adhere to the people first and life first, adhere to the strategy of prioritizing health development, adhere to the public welfare of basic medical and health undertakings, and follow the path of health and health development with Chinese characteristics." This paints a warm background color in the field of people's livelihood for Chinese-style modernization.
"In the face of the people's growing and diversified health needs, we must highlight key points, firmly grasp the work that benefits a wide range of people and affects the whole body, and concentrate efforts and resources and take effective measures to promote it in improving the public health system, building a high-quality and efficient medical service system, and advocating a healthy and civilized lifestyle," the General Secretary said earnestly.
Three aspects are broken down one by one.
Improving the public health system "requires deepening social co-governance, medical prevention collaboration, and medical prevention integration."
The members present all personally experienced the great battle and test of the century's epidemic prevention and control. Joint prevention and control, and mass prevention and control, have made the barrier to protect life more solid.
Building a high-quality and efficient medical service system focuses on areas such as "implementing a strong grassroots medical and health project, promoting hierarchical diagnosis and treatment, and strengthening the operational support of county and grassroots medical and health institutions." The "14th Five-Year Plan" (十四五) delivered a bright report card: the number of grassroots medical and health institutions increased from 970,000 to 1,055,000, and the proportion of diagnosis and treatment volume in grassroots medical and health institutions remained above 50%...
Advocating a healthy and civilized lifestyle "requires further improving the national health literacy, carrying out national fitness and patriotic health campaigns, and guiding people to have a reasonable diet and strengthen healthy weight management, etc. These must have practical measures and specific handles."
At the joint group meeting, member Wang Lu (王路) mentioned that China's per capita life expectancy has reached 79.2 years in 2025, and the General Secretary said with emotion:
"It is crucial to cultivate healthy lifestyles and develop mass sports."
Governing a large country involves myriad details.
There is a goal blueprint. "Building a healthy China by 2035 is a strategic decision made by the CPC Central Committee. The '15th Five-Year Plan' ('十五五') is a crucial period for achieving this goal, and we must plan and promote it in a coordinated manner, and strive to achieve decisive progress."
There are steps and rules. "At present and for a period of time to come, China's health work needs to adapt to the development and changes of the situation, and optimize and improve some specific policies and measures, but the path of health development with Chinese characteristics cannot be shaken, and the implementation of the new era's health policy cannot be shaken."
Open the draft outline of the "15th Five-Year Plan" ("十五五"规划纲要草案): per capita life expectancy will be increased to 80 years; the proportion of nursing beds in elderly care institutions will be increased to 73%... This is a new chapter in the grand blueprint for people's livelihood.

Agenda: General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平) visited members of the Chinese Peasants and Workers Democratic Party, the September 3rd Society, the medical and health community, and the social welfare and social security sectors attending the CPPCC meeting, and participated in the joint group meeting.
At the joint group meeting, members discussed technological innovation, expressing both a sense of urgency to seize the day and a commitment to persistent exploration and incubation practices.
Committee member Lu Ke (卢柯) reported to General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平) on breakthroughs in materials technology. The Liaoning Materials Laboratory (辽宁材料实验室), where he works, is a new type of research and development institution that focuses on the "chassis" technology of specialized materials.
The General Secretary was very interested in this topic: "Original technology must go from '0' to '1', from experiment to transformation, rather than staying at the paper stage. In the future, we must also lengthen and advance '1'."
China's industrial development used to rely on hammering and chiseling. From the poverty and blankness of using "foreign nails" and "foreign matches" in the past, to today's magnificent industrial system, technological progress has enabled a number of industries to complete the leap from following, running alongside, and then leading.
How to connect technological innovation and industrial innovation? The General Secretary's thinking conveyed the firm determination that "if the path is right, we must continue to follow it":
"The highlights of the '14th Five-Year Plan' for science and technology development show that the strategy of strengthening the country through science and technology is correct, and it will continue to be strengthened in the '15th Five-Year Plan'."
Industry poses the questions, and science and technology provide the answers. What science and technology are answering are the innovative questions and quality questions on the magnificent new journey of Chinese-style modernization.
The General Secretary profoundly pointed out: "Now we need to solve the problem of strategic shortages, the problem of 'not being able to get it, not being able to buy it, not being able to beg for it'. Technological development cannot be all-encompassing, and we must have things we do and things we don't do. To 'have things we do', we must work hard on problem orientation and demand orientation, clarify the urgent needs, and carry out forward-looking layout."

It is a good report that is pragmatic, cohesive, and pioneering. I fully agree with this report.
Cai Qi (蔡奇) pointed out that after five years of continuous struggle, the "14th Five-Year Plan" has come to a successful conclusion, and China's economic strength, scientific and technological strength, national defense strength, and comprehensive national strength have reached a new level. The fundamental reason for these achievements lies in the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping (习近平) at its core, and in the scientific guidance of Xi Jinping's (习近平) Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. We must deeply understand the decisive significance of the "Two Establishments," resolutely achieve the "Two Safeguards," and strive to promote Chinese-style modernization.
Cai Qi (蔡奇) pointed out that this year is the 105th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China and the opening year of the "15th Five-Year Plan." We must base ourselves on consolidating the foundation and making comprehensive efforts, adhere to the general tone of seeking progress while maintaining stability, fully and accurately implement the new development concept, firmly establish and practice the correct view of performance, and promote the good start of the "15th Five-Year Plan."
Cai Qi (蔡奇) fully affirmed the new progress and achievements made in various undertakings in Qinghai (青海), and expressed his hope that Qinghai (青海) will thoroughly study and implement the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's (习近平) important speeches and instructions on Qinghai (青海) work, maintain strategic focus, give play to comparative advantages, promote differentiated and characteristic development in accordance with local conditions, and strive to write a Qinghai (青海) chapter of Chinese-style modernization. Adhere to ecological priority, firmly grasp the main task of maximizing ecological functions, strengthen the integrated protection and systematic management of mountains, rivers, forests, fields, lakes, and grasslands, and build Qinghai (青海) into a bright name card of beautiful China. Make sufficient efforts in the "four places" of industry, improve the "green content" of the economy, and embark on a new path of coordinated progress between ecological priority and green development. Adhere to the people's livelihood as the top priority, promote coordinated economic and social development, do practical things for the people's livelihood with heart and soul, and firmly guard the bottom line against large-scale return to poverty. Keep national unity firmly in hand, forge a strong sense of community of the Chinese nation, and promote exchanges, interactions, and integration among all ethnic groups. Increase the supply of cultural services and cultural products, promote the integrated development of culture and tourism, strengthen the protection and revitalization of cultural heritage, launch more high-quality works, and enhance the people's sense of gain and happiness. Deepen and expand Party building in emerging fields, continue to promote the Party's organizational coverage and work coverage, strengthen ideological and political guidance and service management, effectively prevent and resolve contradictions and risks, and strive to improve the level of social governance. Take the Party's political construction as the overall leader of the Party's construction, and unswervingly promote the comprehensive and strict governance of the Party. Carrying out study and education on establishing and practicing a correct view of performance is an important task of Party building this year. We must implement the general requirements of "ruling for the public, benefiting the people, making scientific decisions, and doing practical work," adhere to the integrated promotion of learning, investigation, and rectification, and focus on solving the problem of deviations in the view of performance. Continue to deepen the rectification of formalism to reduce the burden on the grassroots. Local elections should use the correct employment orientation to guide the orientation of entrepreneurship.

On the afternoon of March 6, General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平) visited members from the China National Democratic Construction Association, the Jiusan Society, the medical and health community, and the social welfare and social security sectors who were attending the fourth session of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), and participated in a joint group meeting to listen to their opinions and suggestions.
The important speech of General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平) has triggered enthusiastic responses among the representatives and members. Everyone expressed that they should thoroughly study and implement the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's (习近平) important speech, keep the "big picture of the country" in mind, care about the people's concerns, earnestly fulfill their duties, enhance people's well-being, and gather tremendous strength for building a healthy China.
Unswervingly Follow the Path of Health and Development with Chinese Characteristics
"After studying General Secretary's important speech, I am deeply encouraged and feel even more responsible and committed," said Jin Li (金力), President of Fudan University (复旦大学) and Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. "We will unswervingly follow the path of health and development with Chinese characteristics, comprehensively deepen the collaborative reform of medicine, education, and research, and the innovative development of medical education, continuously cultivate and output outstanding medical talents with compassion and warmth, and make due contributions to building a solid health foundation for Chinese-style modernization."
Sun Da (孙达), Secretary of the Party Committee of the China Charity Federation (中华慈善总会), said: "Listening to General Secretary's important speech on the spot made me more clearly realize that to do a good job in health and health work, we must both adhere to the fundamentals and maintain our focus, and keep pace with the times and implement precise policies." Sun Da (孙达) suggested further inheriting and promoting the characteristics and advantages of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), so that TCM can be better integrated into the grassroots health service system, and a multi-pronged approach can be used to weave a dense national health security network.
"We will continue to promote the sinking of high-quality medical resources and technologies to counties and districts, promote the embedding of medical services into communities, and deliver high-quality medical services to the doorsteps of the masses. At the same time, combined with the characteristics of Jiangmen (江门) as a 'hometown of martial arts,' we will support the combination of intangible cultural heritage inheritance and physical fitness to improve the physical fitness of the masses," said Wu Xiaohui (吴晓晖), Deputy Secretary of the Jiangmen (江门) Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China and Mayor.
Nuo Min (诺敏), a member of the CPPCC and general practitioner at the Bajiao Community Health Service Center (八角社区卫生服务中心) in Shijingshan District (石景山区), Beijing (北京), is a front-line medical worker. She has a deep feeling for the improvement of grassroots medical service capabilities in recent years. "China has a large population and diverse medical and health needs, and the health service centers around the masses play an important role." Nuo Min (诺敏) said, "We will continue to improve the ability of grassroots medical services, combine the specific circumstances of the locality and the needs of the masses, invest resources in a targeted manner, optimize the medical treatment process, improve the quality of diagnosis and treatment, and better serve the people."
Highlight Key Points, Concentrate Efforts and Resources to Promote the Construction of a Healthy China
In recent years, Liu Tao (刘涛), Chairman of the Xinjiang (新疆) Regional Committee of the Jiusan Society, has felt the progress made in medical and health care in Xinjiang (新疆). Thanks to national support and "group-style" medical aid to Xinjiang (援疆), the health and health undertakings in Xinjiang (新疆) have achieved leapfrog development, and people of all ethnic groups can seek medical treatment at their doorsteps. "Only by systematically promoting and focusing on breakthroughs can health achievements benefit more people. I will keep in mind the entrustment of the General Secretary, focus on key areas such as improving the capacity of grassroots health services, building a high-level public health system, and popularizing healthy and civilized lifestyles, conduct in-depth research, and offer pragmatic suggestions," said Liu Tao (刘涛).
In recent years, Tieling City (铁岭市), Liaoning Province (辽宁省), has focused on addressing shortcomings and benefiting the people, strengthening central township health centers, and at the same time, laying out urban "health cabins" to create a "15-minute health service circle." Li Wenbiao (李文飙), Secretary of the Tieling (铁岭) Municipal Party Committee, said: "In rural areas, we must focus on improving the depth and professionalism of medical and health services, so that the masses can 'see a doctor and see a doctor well'; in urban areas, we must focus on expanding the breadth and accessibility of public health services, so that health management is integrated into daily life, and achieve 'prevention in front and rescue around'."
"People's health is an important indicator of modernization, and it must be promoted in a coordinated manner with systematic thinking. We must not only grasp the overall situation, but also grasp the key points, and firmly grasp the work that benefits a wide range of people and affects the whole body, concentrate efforts and resources, and take effective measures." Ma Chuanxi (马传喜), Standing Committee Member of the Revolutionary Committee of the Chinese Kuomintang Central Committee and Chairman of the Anhui (安徽) Provincial Committee, suggested that health education should be incorporated into the national education system, strengthen healthy weight management, improve the early screening, early diagnosis, and early treatment system, strengthen the prevention, treatment, and management of multiple diseases, and promote the construction of a healthy China to achieve decisive progress.
Shou Xiling (寿锡凌), Professor of Cardiovascular Medicine at Shaanxi Provincial People's Hospital (陕西省人民医院), said: "We must thoroughly study and understand the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's (习近平) important speech, strengthen health education and improve health awareness for all people. Not only should medical institutions at all levels do a good job in publicity and education, but we also hope that schools, communities, and other social forces can participate in it to form a strong synergy to promote the construction of a healthy China."
Strengthen Scientific and Technological Innovation and Promote the Construction of a Digital and Intelligent National Health System
"The realization of a healthy China is inseparable from technological empowerment," said Yang Zhenglin (杨正林), Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Secretary of the Party Committee of the Sichuan Academy of Medical Sciences (四川省医学科学院) (Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital (四川省人民医院)). "By building a digital platform and combining it with artificial intelligence, relying on medical consortia, telemedicine, and other methods, it will help promote the expansion and sinking of high-quality medical resources and effectively narrow the gap between urban and rural areas. Next, we will continue to promote the deep integration of scientific and technological innovation and digitalization and intelligence, so that scientific and technological achievements can better benefit the masses."
"The General Secretary's important speech on the construction of a healthy China has pointed out the direction for the intelligent transformation of the medical and health industry, and brought a 'new topic' for private technology enterprises to deeply empower key industries and actively participate in the construction of a digital and intelligent national health system." Zhou Hongyi (周鸿祎), founder of 360 Group (360集团), said, "In the future, we will work with medical industry partners to promote the sinking of medical resources, so that technology can better serve medical convenience and health benefits, and inject technological impetus into the construction of a healthy China."
Hu Xiaoqing (胡小青), Director of the Minimally Invasive Interventional Center and Deputy Director of the Oncology Department of Jiangxi Provincial Maternal and Child Health Hospital (江西省妇幼保健院), said: "Our medical workers will keep in mind our entrustment, be pragmatic and determined, improve the mechanism for talent training, introduction, use, and incentives, so that backbones have a stage and talents have a future, and strive to build a health and health talent team with high medical ethics, superb medical skills, and a reasonable structure."
"Protecting the health of miners is to protect the happiness of thousands of families. At present, digital and intelligent technology is helping to protect the physical and mental health of the majority of miners." Wu Cheng (吴城), Chairman of Guocheng Holding Group Co., Ltd. (国城控股集团有限公司), said, "Through intelligent monitoring and early warning, underground sensors collect dust, gas, and noise data in real time, and alarm when the standard is exceeded, so that miners are away from occupational hazards; using big data to establish a full-cycle health record for miners, to achieve the transformation of occupational diseases from 'passive treatment' to 'active prevention'. We will continue to strengthen the transformation and application of scientific and technological achievements and use technology to build a solid health defense line."

In recent years, the China-ASEAN comprehensive strategic partnership has continued to deepen, and the level of trade and investment cooperation has continued to improve. "Further 'going out' presents both opportunities and challenges." Zhang Shuxin (张树新), Deputy General Manager of Guangxi Investment Group Co., Ltd. (广西投资集团有限公司), stated that it is necessary to adhere to expanding high-level opening up to the outside world, extensively explore global markets, better connect international cycles, deepen cooperation with ASEAN and countries jointly building the "Belt and Road," and enhance the resilience and security level of industrial and supply chains.
"Major economic provinces must adhere to the bottom-line thinking and place risk prediction and proactive governance in a prominent position." Lu Ming (陆铭), Professor at the Antai College of Economics and Management of Shanghai Jiao Tong University (上海交通大学安泰经济与管理学院), stated that preventing risks requires improving emergency response plans, accelerating the improvement of rules and legal supply, strengthening forward-looking governance and precise supervision, taking into account both safety and development, and ensuring high-quality development with a high level of security.
Allowing the Fruits of Modernization Construction to Benefit All People More and More Fairly
General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平) pointed out that Chinese-style modernization is the modernization of common prosperity for all the people.
"'During the 'Fourteenth Five-Year Plan' period, the cumulative number of new urban jobs in Inner Mongolia (内蒙古) reached 1.058 million." Xu Ruixia (徐睿霞), Deputy Director of the Department of Human Resources and Social Security of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (内蒙古自治区人力资源和社会保障厅), stated, "During the 'Fifteenth Five-Year Plan' period, the Inner Mongolia (内蒙古) human resources and social security system will focus on developing employment positions around industrial development and people's livelihood service fields, promote the entire process of all employment handling businesses online, and facilitate the masses to find jobs and enjoy subsidies."
"Basic public services and social security are directly related to the people's sense of gain, happiness, and security."

Using People's Satisfaction to Test the Effectiveness of Work
General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平) emphasized that the more effective the governance of the Party, the more powerful the guarantee for economic and social development.
"As a deputy from the grassroots level, I deeply know that 'creating benefits for the people' means truly seeking happiness and solving problems for the masses, and using the satisfaction of the masses to test the effectiveness of the work." Zeng Daoqun (曾道群), Secretary of the Party Branch and Director of the Village Committee of Gaotan Village (高滩村), Lianluo Town (联络镇), Yantan District (沿滩区), Zigong City (自贡市), Sichuan Province (四川省), said.
"Ruijin (瑞金) is the 'cradle of the Republic,' and the deeds of the predecessors inspire us to move forward." Yin Zhong (尹忠), Member of the Standing Committee of the Ganzhou Municipal Committee (赣州市委常委) and Secretary of the Ruijin Municipal Committee (瑞金市委) of Jiangxi Province (江西省), said, "We must draw strength from the red history, establish and practice a correct view of performance, strengthen Party spirit education and capacity training, and strive to create achievements that can stand the test."
"Party spirit, work style, and discipline are interrelated. Only by systematically promoting and synergistically exerting efforts can we form a combined force to address both the symptoms and root causes."

Reviewing the draft outline of the "15th Five-Year Plan" and deliberating the draft National Development Planning Law are important agendas of the fourth session of the 14th National People's Congress (全国人大).
The coincidence of the timeline for planning legislation and planning preparation at this meeting is noteworthy.
What are the highlights of the National Development Planning Law currently being drafted? The reporter interviewed relevant representatives, members of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (委员), and experts.
Achieving Legal Basis for the Entire Cycle of Planning Preparation and Implementation
Using medium- and long-term plans to guide economic and social development is an important way for our party to govern the country.
In the long-term practice of formulating and implementing five-year plans, a system arrangement has been explored and formed under the centralized and unified leadership of the Party Central Committee, whereby the Party Central Committee proposes planning recommendations, the State Council (国务院) prepares draft planning outlines, and the National People's Congress (全国人大) reviews and approves them before they are announced and implemented to the public.
"The deliberation of the draft National Development Planning Law at this conference will solidify these mature practices in legal form and better leverage the strategic guiding role of national development plans," said Lou Qinjian (娄勤俭), spokesperson for the fourth session of the 14th National People's Congress (全国人大).
"Adhering to the principle of planning legality" is one of the rich experiences created and accumulated in the long-term practice of formulating and implementing five-year plans.
There are also some problems in the preparation and implementation of plans in various regions, such as insufficient coordination among various levels and types of plans, the scientific and democratic nature of planning preparation needs to be improved, and the rigidity and binding force of plan implementation are insufficient, sometimes leading to "unfinished" phenomena.
"The formulation of the National Development Planning Law is a key measure to promote the modernization of the national governance system and governance capabilities, providing a strong legal guarantee for drawing a blueprint to the end and doing one thing after another," said Huang Hanquan (黄汉权), president of the Macroeconomic Research Institute of the National Development and Reform Commission (国家发展改革委). The law makes clear provisions for the entire cycle of national development planning, including preparation, review and approval, implementation, and supervision, achieving a legal basis for planning work. This makes macroeconomic governance no longer a static plan, but a dynamic process that can be designed across cycles and adjusted counter-cyclically according to changes in the situation, continuously improving the ability to cope with complex situations.
"The full-cycle management mechanism of national development planning fully embodies the organic unity of adhering to the Party's leadership, the people being the masters of the country, and the rule of law, which is a significant advantage of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics," said Shang Wenjiang (商文江), professor at China University of Political Science and Law (中国政法大学). The implementation of national development plans will ultimately directly affect people's well-being, involving areas such as employment income distribution and public service supply, which are related to the vital interests of the masses.
Planning Preparation Adheres to the Unity of Top-Level Design and Soliciting Opinions from the People
Promoting economic and social development is the main task of national development planning. Since 1953, China has continuously formulated and implemented 14 five-year plans (plans). Through the overall arrangement of key areas and major tasks, national development planning has established priorities for resource allocation, better promoting economic and social development.
"The formulation of the National Development Planning Law promotes the coordinated efforts of various planning policies from the top-level design," said Zhang Zhenfeng (张振丰), member of the Standing Committee of the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Wenzhou Municipal Party Committee. The National Development Planning Law clarifies and establishes the leading position of national development planning in the national planning system through legislation, so that various levels and types of plans form an accurate positioning, clear boundaries, complementary functions, and unified connection as a whole.
Soliciting opinions from the people is a realistic embodiment of the people being the masters of the country and an important way to promote whole-process people's democracy.
From May 20 to June 20 last year, the "15th Five-Year Plan" preparation work carried out online solicitation of opinions, accumulating more than 3.113 million suggestions from netizens. After sorting and excerpting, more than 1,500 constructive and representative opinions and suggestions were formed in 27 aspects.
The formulation of the National Development Planning Law means that the five-year plan preparation process has strong legal guarantees for opening the door to solicit opinions, gathering wisdom and strength.
"The five-year plan preparation process adheres to promoting democracy, opening the door to solicit opinions, gathering wisdom, and widely absorbing opinions and suggestions from all sectors of society, condensing the greatest policy consensus, and becoming a vivid embodiment of whole-process people's democracy, which can make the 'things that the Party and the government want to do' and the 'things that the people expect in their hearts' resonate at the same frequency," said Lü Hongbing (吕红兵), supervisor of the All China Lawyers Association (中华全国律师协会).
This draft law mentions that the preparation of national development plans should give full play to the auxiliary support role of industry associations. In this regard, Lü Hongbing (吕红兵) believes that this is an important embodiment of improving grassroots democracy and improving social organization consultation, and more widely gathering people's hearts, wisdom, and consensus in the formulation and implementation of national major policies.
Strengthening Rigid Constraints and Coordinating the Relationship between Planning at All Levels
For all levels and types of plans, this draft law establishes a national planning system led by national development planning, based on territorial space planning, supported by special plans and regional plans, and jointly composed of national and local plans, with accurate positioning, clear boundaries, complementary functions, and unified connection.
"We must firmly establish the idea of the whole country as one game, and we should use systematic thinking to improve the overall effectiveness of the national planning system and enhance the consistency of macroeconomic policy orientation," said Zhang Zhenfeng (张振丰). The draft law clarifies the leading position of national development planning in the national planning system, and requires fiscal, monetary, industrial, price, employment, consumption, investment, trade, land and other policies to work together to solve the problems of policy fragmentation and inconsistent goals that may have occurred in the past, ensure that various policy means are systematically integrated and coordinated efficiently, and better transform institutional advantages into national governance effectiveness.
"In the past, there were many levels and types of plans, but there was a lack of effective connection mechanisms between them, which led to easy disconnection between vertical and horizontal aspects. For example, the road in the transportation plan may pass through the ecological corridor of the forestry plan, and the road drawn on the map may be in basic farmland," said Wang Shuming (王树明), deputy governor of the Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture (阿坝藏族羌族自治州) in Sichuan, with deep experience. With the National Development Planning Law, all regions have a clear superior basis when preparing plans, which can ensure that the strategic intentions of the country and provinces, cities, and prefectures are conveyed to the county and township levels without compromise.
Wang Shuming (王树明) believes that using legal rigidity to clarify a development blueprint and establish the priority of resource allocation effectively solves the problems of cross-repetition and conflicts that may exist between various types of plans in the past, forming a planning synergy.
The vitality of planning lies in its ability to be implemented and realized.
"This law strengthens the rigid constraints and supervision and accountability of planning, and clarifies that state personnel who abuse their powers, neglect their duties, engage in malpractice for personal gain, or have other illegal acts in the work of national development planning shall be held accountable in accordance with the law," said Shang Wenjiang (商文江). It is recommended that after the law is implemented, relevant departments should establish a constraint mechanism that matches responsibilities and obligations to ensure that the rigid constraints of the law are implemented, which will not only escort economic and social development, but also provide long-term and stable legal guarantees for people's well-being.

"Building a Healthy China by 2035 is a strategic decision made by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (中共中央)." On the afternoon of March 6, General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平), while visiting members from the China National Democratic Construction Association (农工党), the Jiusan Society (九三学社), the medical and health community, and the social welfare and social security sectors attending the Fourth Session of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (全国政协十四届四次会议), and participating in joint group meetings to listen to opinions and suggestions, emphasized promoting decisive progress in the construction of a Healthy China during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period.
Promoting the construction of a Healthy China is a solemn commitment our Party has made to the people. With a promise worth a thousand gold and unremitting efforts, the people are most touched by the Party and the country's dedication to their health.
During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the number of direct settlements for cross-provincial outpatient medical treatment exceeded 600 million, and the average life expectancy increased by 1.3 years in 5 years; in 2025, the proportion of residents aged 7 and above who regularly participate in physical exercise in China reached 38.52%... Taking firm steps one step at a time and doing solid work year after year, paints a warm background of people's happiness, health, and well-being. From this, we can better understand General Secretary Xi Jinping's (习近平) people-centered feelings and more deeply understand the "people" in the connotation of a Healthy China.
Seeing "determination" from "difficulty" demonstrates great compassion.
China has a huge population and a relatively large gap between urban and rural areas. The difficulty of health and health work is beyond imagination.
Not deterred by mountains and seas, medical talents provide "group-style" assistance to Tibet and Xinjiang, sowing the seeds of health that "cannot be taken away"; concentrating efforts to accomplish great things, medical consortia and medical alliances bridge the "mountain folds," bringing high-quality resources to people's doorsteps... "Unswervingly following the path of health and health development with Chinese characteristics, and unswervingly implementing the health and health work policy in the new era," knowing the difficulty and acting on it, meeting difficulties head-on, reflects the original aspiration and mission, and reflects the advantages of the system.
In recent years, China has built the world's largest social security system and medical and health system, and the medical insurance catalog has continued to expand, vividly interpreting what is meant by "health first" and "life first."
Achieving breadth while focusing on detail embodies a grand vision.
"Building a Healthy China is a systematic project." Faced with diversified health needs, national fitness has been elevated to a national strategy, and "strictly implementing the food safety responsibility system" has been written into the No. 1 central document. Building a strong sports country and a Healthy China promote each other, and each and every item reflects a grand vision and a strategic layout.
Big health connects people's livelihoods on one end and development on the other. Shanghai Zhangjiang Pharma Valley focuses on "first launch, first choice, and first creation," gathering more than 2,300 innovative entities in various biomedical fields. Guangde, Anhui, relies on its superior ecological background to create a health and wellness destination, attracting 53 health and wellness cultural tourism projects.
New demands are full of people's expectations for their livelihoods and contain market opportunities. Making a big deal out of big health will continuously add points to people's health and add weight to people's happiness.
Promoting development through innovation calls for great responsibility.
Responsibility lies in meeting difficulties head-on. Sanming (三明), Fujian, has taken on the "hard bone" of supporting medicine with medicine, and has embarked on a new path with the "three-pronged medical reform"; to reduce the burden on doctors and patients, "mutual recognition of medical tests" continues to advance... Further deepening reforms and innovating mechanisms will provide strong guarantees for the construction of a Healthy China.
Responsibility lies in moving towards the new. Earlier this year, The New York Times published a full-page report: A hospital in Ningbo, relying on artificial intelligence models to timely identify pancreatic cancer, performed surgical resection for Mr. Qiu, a retired bricklayer, with a screening fee of about $25. Foreign netizens hotly debated, "This is the correct use of emerging technologies." At the National People's Congress (全国两会), "AI + Healthcare" was very popular. Engaging in scientific and technological innovation "facing people's life and health," promoting transformation, and strengthening application, we can shoulder the heaviest burdens and overcome the most dangerous difficulties.
"Health is 1, and everything else is 0 behind it." Safeguarding the foundation of health and eliminating worries will deepen the "1" more and more, write more and more "0s," and the high-quality development of the population, the high-quality life of the people, and the high-quality development of the economy will better resonate.
Return to Top"More emphasis should be placed on enhancing the driving force for self-development and economic resilience," "Continuously consolidate the foundation for self-development, while also maintaining the vitality of external cooperation"... International figures interviewed by this newspaper's reporters regarding this year's Chinese government work report stated that the government work report conveys a clear message that China is steadfastly promoting high-quality development and driving the economy to achieve effective qualitative improvement and reasonable quantitative growth. A China with strategic focus and development vitality will provide valuable stability and certainty to a turbulent world.
"New achievements have been made in promoting high-quality economic development"
The government work report stated that over the past year, China's economy has moved forward against pressure, demonstrating strong resilience; China's development has moved towards new and better directions, demonstrating vigorous vitality. The report also announced the main goals and indicators, major strategic tasks, and major engineering projects for the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, uniting efforts to make a good start and take a good first step for the "15th Five-Year Plan."
"In the past year, against the backdrop of relatively weak global demand, China has achieved new results in promoting high-quality economic development," said Njeru Kariuki, an Asian economist at Standard Bank Group of South Africa. China has actively laid out future industries such as quantum technology, bio-manufacturing, humanoid robots, hydrogen energy technology, and 6G communications, which has driven increased employment and income, thereby expanding domestic demand and providing important impetus for global technological innovation.
Fabian Hanle, Executive Director of the German "hidden champion" company Voith Group, has lived and worked in China for over 10 years. He closely follows the policy information released by the Two Sessions of the National People's Congress of China. "Faced with drastic changes in the external environment, the Chinese economy still demonstrated remarkable resilience in 2025," he said. "During the '14th Five-Year Plan' period, China has become one of the global leaders in scientific research and application in fields such as artificial intelligence, biomedicine, robotics, and quantum technology through innovation-driven high-quality growth. In addition, China has vigorously developed renewable energy and actively promoted green transformation, becoming the world's largest renewable energy investor and continuing to expand its related scale."
"Faced with a complex and volatile international environment, China's economy achieved 5% growth last year, which fully demonstrates the strong resilience and institutional advantages of the Chinese economy," said Liang Zhihua, Secretary-General of the Malaysia "Belt and Road" Committee. China continues to introduce policies and measures to stabilize growth and promote development, providing strong support for high-quality economic development by expanding domestic demand, stabilizing market expectations, and optimizing the business environment.
Jeon Byeong-seo, Director of the Korea China Economic and Financial Research Institute, pays close attention to the content related to the capital market in the Chinese government work reports over the years and has observed positive changes. He said that since 2024, China's capital market has paid more attention to the growth from "quantity" to "quality," and is committed to creating returns for investors and providing fertile ground for the growth of innovative enterprises.
"Ranking first in the world in terms of manufacturing added value for 16 consecutive years, with both production and sales of new energy vehicles exceeding 16 million units, and the added value of the core industries of the digital economy accounting for more than 10.5% of GDP... From China's development achievements, I see huge opportunities for Italian-Chinese industrial cooperation," said Pietrocelli, Chairman of the Italy BRICS Institute. Italy and China can leverage their respective advantages to strengthen cooperation in fields such as electric vehicles and hydrogen energy, and help the global sustainable development process.
"Demonstrates a proactive goal orientation and policy orientation"
The government work report proposes that the main expected goals for development this year are: an economic growth of 4.5%-5%, and strive for better results in actual work. The international community is hotly discussing this scientific and reasonable economic growth target.
Dmitry Mayatsky, Associate Professor at St. Petersburg State University (俄罗斯圣彼得堡国立大学), Russia, said: "'4.5%-5%' is a steady and progressive, proactive and pragmatic economic growth target, which is in line with China's economic development expectations." In his view, the advantages of a super-large market, the policy benefits of comprehensively deepening reform and steadily expanding institutional opening-up, and the vigorous momentum of technological innovation empowering high-quality development are constantly accumulating, which will open up broader prospects for the Chinese economy to move towards better and better. "In the midst of turbulence and changes, the supporting conditions and basic trends for the long-term positive development of the Chinese economy will not change. China will continue to bring more new opportunities to the world with its own new development."
Fabian Pizarro, head of the "China Phenomenon" column at Chilean Cooperative Radio (智利合作社电台), believes that the setting of China's 2026 economic growth target reflects that China's economic development takes into account both "reasonable quantitative growth" and "effective qualitative improvement." Practice has shown that China coordinates technological progress, industrial upgrading, and social development, and continuously enhances the endogenous driving force and development resilience of the economy through structural optimization, innovation-driven approaches, and institutional arrangements.
"This year's economic growth target includes considerations of people's livelihood, development resilience, and long-term planning, demonstrating a proactive goal orientation and policy orientation. This is a scientific decision that takes into account both reality and the long term," said Ragab, Dean of the Faculty of Languages at Suez Canal University (苏伊士运河大学), Egypt. "The confidence in the goal of 'economic growth of 4.5%-5%, and strive for better results in actual work' stems from the huge advantages and innovation vitality of China's super-large market, and is considered in conjunction with the 2035 long-term goals, reflecting the Chinese government's proactive and pragmatic work style."
Eduardo Tzili-Apango, Associate Professor at the Metropolitan Autonomous University (墨西哥大都会自治大学), Mexico, believes that adhering to expanding domestic demand, vigorously boosting consumption, accelerating high-level self-reliance in science and technology, and developing new quality productive forces in accordance with local conditions have become important directions for China's future economic and social development. A more solid domestic market and continuously improving technological capabilities will provide important support for China's long-term stable growth and effectively enhance China's ability to cope with changes in the external environment.
"Jointly inject impetus into regional and even global economic growth"
The government work report proposes to further expand high-level opening up to the outside world. Adhere to cooperation and mutual benefit, steadily expand institutional opening up, expand international circulation, and promote reform and development through opening up.
Chung Jae-heung, Director of the China Research Center at the Sejong Institute (世宗研究所), South Korea, believes that at present, economic globalization is encountering headwinds, geopolitical risks are intensifying, and world economic growth is weak. China's high-level opening up to the outside world has a positive effect on promoting global common development and improving global governance. He said that strengthening international cooperation is crucial. China firmly upholds multilateralism and open cooperation, and has made important contributions to all parties jointly responding to global challenges and building a more just and reasonable global governance system.
"This year's government work report continues to release the signal that China is actively promoting international cooperation," said Tzili-Apango. Cooperation platforms represented by the high-quality joint construction of the "Belt and Road" will continue to play an important role, providing more opportunities for relevant countries to participate in global cooperation through infrastructure construction, promoting trade exchanges, and industrial cooperation. By signing more free trade agreements, improving logistics and industrial cooperation platforms, and strengthening scientific and technological exchanges, China is constantly expanding its space for external cooperation and maintaining a diversified and stable international economic and trade pattern.
Pietrocelli said that China emphasizes actively expanding autonomous opening up, further expanding pilot projects in fields such as value-added telecommunications, biotechnology, and wholly foreign-owned hospitals, and promoting high-quality joint construction of the "Belt and Road," and a series of opening-up and cooperation measures aimed at promoting mutual benefit and win-win results demonstrate China's adherence to true multilateralism and provide solid support for improving global economic governance.
Hanle said that China has always been a trustworthy partner of Germany, and maintaining cooperation means opportunities for both sides. Germany has many "hidden champion" companies that focus on environmental protection technologies, which can provide support for China's green transformation, and Europe can also gain a lot of inspiration from China's strong innovation momentum.
"China's continued steady economic development has brought more trade, investment, and technological cooperation opportunities to the countries jointly building the 'Belt and Road'," said Liang Zhihua. "With the high-quality implementation of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) and the joint construction of the 'Belt and Road' initiative, the prospects for cooperation between Malaysia and China in areas such as industrial collaboration, green development, and the digital economy will be broader, and will jointly inject impetus into regional and even global economic growth."
"China's stable economic operation and continuous upgrading of its consumption structure have provided important opportunities for the foreign trade and industrial development of Latin America," said Pizarro. "China's rapid development in fields such as energy transition and advanced manufacturing has created a continuous spillover effect on Latin American exports, investment, and employment, and has injected certainty into the stability of global production and supply chains. Latin American countries should deeply explore the path of industrial collaboration with China, transform resource endowments into industrial competitiveness, and achieve mutual benefit, win-win results, and common growth with China."

The publication and distribution of the fifth volume of "Xi Jinping: The Governance of China" provides an "intellectual key" for people in South Africa and even around the world to understand Chinese-style modernization, and provides valuable experience for countries to promote modernization and improve governance capabilities.
In December 2025, I was invited to attend the launch event of the English version of the fifth volume of "Xi Jinping: The Governance of China" in Johannesburg (约翰内斯堡), South Africa (南非), where I joined more than 200 guests, including government officials, experts, scholars, and members of civil society, to exchange and discuss topics such as sharing experiences in modernization and development. Everyone agreed that the publication and distribution of the fifth volume of "Xi Jinping: The Governance of China" provides an "intellectual key" for people in South Africa and even around the world to understand Chinese-style modernization, and provides valuable experience for countries to promote modernization and improve governance capabilities.
Through the 91 important expositions in the book's 18 special topics, the pulse of China's journey towards national rejuvenation is clearly discernible, which contains both the determination to innovate in response to world changes and the unwavering commitment to the original aspiration and mission. In the course of modernization, China has not simply copied the Western model, but has created a unique development path based on its own national conditions, providing new possibilities for countries to explore their own paths to modernization.
The people-centered development philosophy is being translated into practical measures covering education, healthcare, employment, social security and other fields in China's governance practice. Nearly 100 million rural people have been lifted out of poverty, basic medical insurance covers more than 1.3 billion people, and the consolidation rate of nine-year compulsory education has reached 96.1%... These solid achievements and data have substantially improved the Chinese people's sense of gain, happiness, and security, and have also contributed Chinese wisdom and Chinese solutions to the global poverty reduction and development cause.
China has always attached great importance to long-term planning and policy continuity. The Five-Year Plan is a distinct manifestation of the advantages of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, ensuring that national development can continue to advance along the established strategic blueprint. Since 1953, China has formulated and implemented 14 Five-Year Plans (Plans), always steadily moving towards the goal of modernization. Entering the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, China will continue to provide new opportunities for the world through its own modernization construction. South Africa and other African countries can learn from China's development experience, and ensure the coherence and sustainability of the national development agenda by establishing medium- and long-term institutional arrangements and implementation mechanisms, so as to promote the solid implementation of sustainable development goals.
Technological innovation is an important theme of the fifth volume of "Xi Jinping: The Governance of China." The emphasis on new quality productive forces means that China's economic development is undergoing a profound transformation, that is, from relying on factor inputs to high-quality development driven by innovation. Take the transportation sector as an example: the domestically produced large aircraft C919, which was developed for the first time in accordance with international common airworthiness standards, has achieved commercial flight; the CR450 new generation high-speed EMU test single train speed reached 453 kilometers per hour, continuously consolidating China's leading position in the field of high-speed rail. China is constantly expanding the boundaries of cutting-edge technology and developing new quality productive forces, which is contributing to the increment of global scientific and technological progress. By actively carrying out technology transfer and production capacity cooperation, China is sharing development opportunities with partner countries and jointly promoting the construction of an open, inclusive, and collaborative innovation-based global industrial ecology.
This year marks the 70th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Africa. Over the past 70 years, China and Africa have always moved forward side by side on the road to modernization. On the basis of common ideas, the two sides have gradually transformed the vision of modernization into solid cooperation results through a series of practical measures. South Africa attaches great importance to the comprehensive strategic partnership with China in the new era, and cooperation between the two sides has covered many fields such as trade and investment, infrastructure, digital technology, and cultural exchanges. In the future, South Africa is willing to continue to work with China to promote the ten partnership actions for modernization, actively practice the four global initiatives, empower the development and revitalization of countries in the Global South, and contribute to the common dream of modernization between China and Africa.

Return to TopEntering the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, China will continue to unswervingly follow the path of ecological priority and green development, working with all countries to build a foundation for ecological civilization, jointly respond to global climate challenges, protect our green Earth home, and build a cleaner and more beautiful world.
Entering the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, what path will China's green transformation take to continue its progress? What new impact will it have on global green development? During the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (两会), the international community paid close attention to China's new blueprint for accelerating the comprehensive green transformation of economic and social development, and further saw China's firm determination to strive towards the goal of harmonious coexistence between humans and nature.
Opening China's "green ledger," each entry connects to the extraordinary journey of a country with a population of over 1.4 billion people striving forward on the path of green development. By 2025, China's carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP will decrease by 5.0%; the proportion of days with good or excellent air quality in cities at the prefecture level and above will reach 89.3%, the best in history; and the proportion of green electricity in total social electricity consumption will approach 40%, building the world's largest and fastest-growing renewable energy system. Since 2012, China has afforested over 1.1 billion mu (亩, a Chinese unit of area) cumulatively, contributing approximately 25% of the world's new green area, becoming the country with the most and fastest increase in greening globally. Against the international backdrop of some major countries' climate policies being seen as regressing to the "Stone Age," China is increasingly becoming a source of power and a beacon of hope for global green transformation.
The "green assets" are growing thicker and thicker, relying on the foresight of strategic planning and the perseverance to achieve success. The "13th Five-Year Plan" proposed "firmly establishing and implementing the development concepts of innovation, coordination, green, openness, and sharing." The "14th Five-Year Plan" clarified the relevant requirements for achieving the "dual carbon" goals. The "15th Five-Year Plan" proposal includes "new and significant progress in the construction of a Beautiful China" as a major goal for economic and social development during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, and dedicates a special chapter to "accelerating the comprehensive green transformation of economic and social development and building a Beautiful China." Opening the draft outline of the "15th Five-Year Plan," it proposes 5 indicators focusing on carbon reduction, pollution reduction, and ecological environmental protection; and proposes 18 projects focusing on carbon peaking and carbon neutrality, environmental quality improvement, and ecological protection and restoration... The continuity of the plan ensures the coherence of policies and actions. As the "15th Five-Year Plan" begins, China is accelerating the comprehensive green transformation, and the green foundation of high-quality development will become more distinct.
How to balance protection and development is a global issue. Only by ensuring that people have a sense of gain in green development can the transformation path be stable and far-reaching. Under the guidance of the concept that "lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets" (绿水青山就是金山银山), China's green development takes into account long-term, overall, and comprehensive benefits, and insists that a good ecological environment is the most inclusive benefit for the people. From Yucun Village (余村) in Zhejiang Province closing mines and starting ecological tourism as a "golden rice bowl," to Changjiang Village (长江村) in Fengdu (丰都), Chongqing (重庆) promoting the "establishment" of characteristic agriculture through the "destruction" of fishing bans; from the transformation of industries in Changjiang Village (长江村), Jiangyin (江阴), Jiangsu (江苏) from "pollution-type" to "green-type," to Guizhou (贵州) upgrading the prickly pear from a by-product of rocky desertification control to a "golden fruit" for increasing income and wealth... The "careful calculations" in green transformation allow the masses to share the dividends of development under clear waters and blue skies. Practicing ecological benefits for the people, ecological advantages for the people, and ecology for the people, China's practice truly transforms the achievements of green development into the flowers of a happy life for the common people, providing important inspiration for other countries. A related article in the European "Modern Diplomacy" pointed out that China follows a high-quality development model, providing a demonstration model for Southern Hemisphere countries to integrate environmental sustainability with economic growth.
China's "green ledger" also records its leadership and responsibility for global green development. China continues to provide high-quality and efficient green and low-carbon products to various countries, especially developing countries. Products such as wind power, photovoltaics, and new energy vehicles are exported to more than 200 countries and regions, providing 70% of the world's wind power equipment and 80% of photovoltaic module equipment, promoting the global cost of wind power and photovoltaic power generation to decrease by more than 60% and 80% respectively. At a critical juncture in global green transformation, China deeply participates in global governance in related fields, achieves significant results in implementing the 2030 nationally determined contributions, solemnly announces a new round of nationally determined contribution goals, and carries out green energy project cooperation with more than 100 countries and regions. Inger Andersen, Executive Director of the United Nations Environment Programme, said that China's renewable energy development has made outstanding contributions to global climate action, and the achievements that China's long-term planning, industrial capacity, and policy coordination can achieve "will change the trajectory of global development."
As grasses and trees sprout and flourish, spring mountains can be anticipated. In the vibrant spring, China's new green development picture is slowly unfolding. As the "15th Five-Year Plan" begins, China will continue to unswervingly follow the path of ecological priority and green development, working with all countries to build a foundation for ecological civilization, jointly respond to global climate challenges, protect our green Earth home, and build a cleaner and more beautiful world.

Time: March 6, Afternoon
Agenda: General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平) visited members of the Chinese Peasants and Workers Democratic Party, the Jiusan Society, the medical and health community, and the social welfare and social security sectors attending the CPPCC meeting, and participated in the joint group meeting.
With high altitude and a large medical service radius, Basang Zhuoma (巴桑卓玛), a member of the Medical College of Tibet University (西藏大学医学院), has a deep understanding of the prevention and treatment of altitude sickness. From the Qinghai-Tibet Highway (青藏公路) to the Qinghai-Tibet Railway (青藏铁路), and then to the Sichuan-Tibet Railway (川藏铁路), she spoke eloquently about the progress in the prevention and treatment of altitude sickness during the construction of several major projects, fully demonstrating the tremendous changes that have taken place.
"Altitude sickness has always been the biggest difficulty encountered in working and living in the plateau." General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平) is concerned about the medical conditions in the Qinghai-Tibet (青藏) region: "Now the conditions and technical levels have caught up in many aspects, but this area still needs to be strengthened. To build a healthy China, the shortcomings in remote areas must be addressed. Multiple measures should be taken, and traditional Chinese medicine, Tibetan medicine, Mongolian medicine, Miao medicine and other ethnic medicines are also our valuable assets."
"If key tasks are done well, the construction of a healthy China can be solidly advanced." The General Secretary stated the methodology.
What are the key tasks?
The National Health and Wellness Conference held 10 years ago determined the guiding principles for health and wellness work in the new era, namely, focusing on the grassroots, driven by reform and innovation, prioritizing prevention, emphasizing both traditional Chinese and Western medicine, integrating health into all policies, and building and sharing by the people.
"Adhere to the leadership of the Party, adhere to the people-first and life-first principle, adhere to the health-first development strategy, adhere to the public welfare nature of basic medical and health undertakings, and follow the path of health and wellness development with Chinese characteristics." This paints a warm background color for the people's livelihood in Chinese-style modernization.
"Facing the people's growing and diversified health needs, we must highlight key points and firmly grasp the work that benefits a wide range of people and affects the overall situation. We must concentrate our efforts and resources and take effective measures to promote the improvement of the public health system, the construction of a high-quality and efficient medical service system, and the promotion of healthy and civilized lifestyles," the General Secretary said earnestly.
Three aspects are broken down one by one.
Improving the public health system "requires deepening social co-governance, medical prevention coordination, and medical prevention integration."
The members present all personally experienced the great battle and test of the century's epidemic prevention and control. Joint prevention and control, and mass prevention and control, have made the barrier protecting life even stronger.
The construction of a high-quality and efficient medical service system focuses on areas such as "implementing the medical and health strengthening project at the grassroots level, promoting hierarchical diagnosis and treatment, and strengthening the operational support of county and grassroots medical and health institutions." The "14th Five-Year Plan" (十四五) has delivered a brilliant report card: the number of grassroots medical and health institutions has increased from 970,000 to 1,055,000, and the proportion of diagnoses and treatments at grassroots medical and health institutions has remained above 50%...
Advocating a healthy and civilized lifestyle "requires further improving the health literacy of the whole people, carrying out national fitness and patriotic health campaigns, and guiding people to have a reasonable diet and strengthen healthy weight management. These must have practical measures and specific approaches."
At the joint group meeting, member Wang Lu (王路) mentioned that China's average life expectancy had reached 79.2 years in 2025, and the General Secretary said with emotion:
"It is crucial to cultivate healthy lifestyles and develop mass sports."
Governing a large country involves countless details.
There is a target blueprint. "Building a healthy China by 2035 is a strategic decision made by the CPC Central Committee (中共中央). The '15th Five-Year Plan' ('十五五') is a critical period for achieving this goal, and we must plan and promote it in a coordinated manner, and strive to achieve decisive progress."
There are steps and methods. "At present and for a period of time to come, China's health and wellness work needs to adapt to the development and changes of the situation and optimize and improve some specific policies and measures, but the path of health and wellness development with Chinese characteristics cannot be shaken, and the guiding principles for health and wellness work in the new era cannot be shaken."
Opening the draft outline of the "15th Five-Year Plan" ("十五五"规划纲要草案): average life expectancy will be increased to 80 years; the proportion of nursing beds in elderly care institutions will be increased to 73%... This is a new chapter in the magnificent blueprint for people's livelihood.

"The draft outline of the '15th Five-Year Plan' demonstrates China's firm determination to promote Chinese-style modernization and enhances all parties' confidence in China's development prospects," said Ahmed Abdel-Rabou Darraj, a columnist for Egypt's Al-Ahram newspaper, in a recent interview with our reporter.
"The Communist Party of China (中国共产党) is good at guiding economic and social development through medium- and long-term plans," Darraj said. "China has accumulated mature experience in formulating and implementing five-year plans, creating two major miracles: rapid economic development and long-term social stability."
During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, China's (中国) total economic output completed a "four-level jump," successively reaching the milestones of 110 trillion yuan, 120 trillion yuan, 130 trillion yuan, and 140 trillion yuan. China's (中国) economic growth rate ranked among the top major economies, and its contribution to world economic growth remained at around 30%. Darraj said that in the past five years, China's (中国) strategic emerging industries have risen rapidly, and breakthroughs have been made in fields such as artificial intelligence and new energy; China (中国) is moving from a "world factory" to a "global innovation center." At the same time, China (中国) has built the world's largest education system, social security system, and healthcare system.
"The draft outline of the '15th Five-Year Plan' clearly proposes to steadily expand institutional opening-up, build a new system of a higher-level open economy, expand international circulation, promote reform and development through opening-up, and share opportunities and common development with countries around the world," Darraj said. "Under the framework of high-quality joint construction of the 'Belt and Road' (一带一路), China (中国) continues to deepen cooperation with co-building countries in trade, investment, industry, and other fields, and actively expands new spaces for cooperation in green development, artificial intelligence, the digital economy, health and wellness, tourism, agriculture, and other fields. This shows that China's (中国) development has always been open, inclusive, and closely connected with the world."
Darraj said that the draft outline of the "15th Five-Year Plan" proposes to take carbon peaking and carbon neutrality as the traction, and coordinate the promotion of carbon reduction, pollution reduction, green expansion, and growth, build a solid ecological security barrier, and enhance the momentum of green development. This means that China (中国), which adheres to green development, will make more positive contributions to the world.
"Looking forward to the '15th Five-Year Plan,' with its super-large-scale market, complete industrial system, and abundant human resources, the Chinese (中国) economy still has the conditions to achieve long-term stable development," Darraj said. "China's (中国) policies are sound, and its economy is promising in the long run, and it will continue to be a major contributor to global economic growth." A confident and open China (中国) will continue to share development opportunities with all parties and jointly promote an equal and orderly multipolar world and an inclusive economic globalization that benefits all.

Cai Qi (蔡奇) pointed out that after five years of continuous struggle, the "14th Five-Year Plan" has come to a successful conclusion, and China's economic strength, scientific and technological strength, national defense strength, and comprehensive national strength have reached a new level. The fundamental reason for these achievements lies in the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping (习近平) as the core, and in the scientific guidance of Xi Jinping (习近平) Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. We must deeply understand the decisive significance of the "two establishments," resolutely achieve the "two safeguards," and strive to promote Chinese-style modernization.
Cai Qi (蔡奇) pointed out that this year is the 105th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China and the first year of the "15th Five-Year Plan." We must base ourselves on consolidating the foundation and making comprehensive efforts, adhere to the general tone of seeking progress while maintaining stability, fully and accurately implement the new development concept, firmly establish and practice the correct view of political achievements, and promote the good start of the "15th Five-Year Plan."
Cai Qi (蔡奇) fully affirmed the new progress and achievements made in various undertakings in Qinghai (青海), and expressed his hope that Qinghai (青海) will thoroughly study and implement the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's (习近平) important speeches and instructions on Qinghai (青海) work, maintain strategic focus, give play to comparative advantages, promote differentiated and characteristic development in accordance with local conditions, and strive to write a Qinghai (青海) chapter of Chinese-style modernization. Adhere to ecological priority, firmly grasp the main task of maximizing ecological functions, strengthen the integrated protection and systematic management of mountains, rivers, forests, fields, lakes, and grasslands, and build Qinghai (青海) into a bright name card of beautiful China. Make sufficient efforts in the "four places" of industry, enhance the "green content" of the economy, and embark on a new path of coordinated progress between ecological priority and green development. Adhere to the people's livelihood as the top priority, promote coordinated economic and social development, do practical things for the people's livelihood with heart and soul, and firmly guard the bottom line against large-scale return to poverty. Keep ethnic unity firmly in hand, forge a strong sense of community of the Chinese nation, and promote exchanges, interactions, and integration among all ethnic groups. Increase the supply of cultural services and cultural products, promote the integrated development of culture and tourism, strengthen the protection and revitalization of cultural heritage, launch more high-quality works, and enhance the people's sense of gain and happiness. Deepen and expand Party building in emerging fields, continue to promote the Party's organizational coverage and work coverage, strengthen ideological and political guidance and service management, effectively prevent and resolve contradictions and risks, and strive to improve the level of social governance. Take the Party's political construction as the overall leader of the Party's construction work, and unswervingly promote comprehensive and strict Party governance. Carrying out study and education on establishing and practicing a correct view of political achievements is an important task of Party building this year. We must implement the general requirements of "ruling for the public, benefiting the people, making scientific decisions, and doing practical work," adhere to the integrated advancement of learning, investigation, rectification, and focus on solving the problem of deviations in the view of political achievements. Continue to deepen the rectification of formalism to reduce the burden on the grassroots. Local elections should guide the orientation of doing business and starting a business with the correct employment orientation.

On the morning of March 7th, the fourth session of the 14th National People's Congress (全国人民代表大会) held a press conference on livelihood issues. Minister of Education Huai Jinpeng (怀进鹏), Minister of Civil Affairs Lu Zhiyuan (陆治原), Minister of Human Resources and Social Security Wang Xiaoping (王晓萍), Minister of Culture and Tourism Sun Yeli (孙业礼), and Director of the National Health Commission Lei Haichao (雷海潮) answered questions from Chinese and foreign journalists on relevant issues.
Striving to Transform the Concept of Health First into Action
Huai Jinpeng (怀进鹏) introduced that China currently has 440,000 schools of various levels and types, 280 million students, and 18.7 million teachers. The gross enrollment rate for preschool education is 92.9%, and the gross enrollment rate for upper secondary education is 92%. During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, a total of 55 million talents were delivered to society.
The healthy growth of children concerns the hearts of parents. "We adhere to the five aspects of education and strive to transform the concept of health first into action, and strive to transform practical actions into practical results," said Huai Jinpeng (怀进鹏). "Sweat on the body" means letting students move, ensuring that "2 hours of physical education every day" and "15 minutes between classes" are implemented in every school; "light in the eyes" means strengthening the mind, implementing a new round of student mental health promotion actions, and building a comprehensive mental health education pattern; "health first" means establishing effectiveness, accelerating the construction of "teaching consortia," and promoting the effective integration of the main role of schools with family education and social services.
Better Play the Role of "Stabilizer," "Pressure Relief Valve," and "Safety Net" for Basic Livelihood Security
In 2024, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (中共中央) and the State Council (国务院) issued the "Opinions on Deepening the Reform and Development of Elderly Care Services," making top-level designs for building an elderly care service system suitable for China's national conditions.
"The Ministry of Civil Affairs (民政部) will work with relevant departments to vigorously implement policies." Lu Zhiyuan (陆治原) introduced that a dense elderly care service network has been woven, and a "one network" of elderly care services covering urban and rural areas has been initially built; key livelihood matters related to elderly care services have been handled well. This year, consumption subsidies for elderly care services will be issued to moderately or severely disabled elderly people. Currently, a total of 1.72 billion yuan in consumption coupons have been redeemed, benefiting 892,000 elderly people; the supply of elderly care service products has been enriched, and relevant departments have jointly formulated policies and measures to promote the high-quality development of inclusive elderly care services; policies for factor input have been improved, and relevant departments have worked together to increase support in terms of funds, planning, standards, talent, and technology.
Lu Zhiyuan (陆治原) said that the next step is to promote the expansion, improvement, and efficiency of the elderly care service industry, and strive to basically build a three-level elderly care service network at the county, township, and village levels by the end of the "15th Five-Year Plan."
Doing a good job in providing services and security for vulnerable groups, empty-nest elderly living alone, children in difficult circumstances, and people with disabilities is the most basic task of ensuring people's livelihoods. Lu Zhiyuan (陆治原) introduced that China has basically established a tiered and classified social assistance system, fully established a national basic elderly care service system, established a welfare security system for children in difficult circumstances, and improved the social security system and care service system for people with disabilities. The next step will be to better play the role of "stabilizer," "pressure relief valve," and "safety net" for basic livelihood security, based on the principles of ensuring basic needs, providing bottom-line support, preventing risks, and ensuring sustainability.
Planning a Batch of Pragmatic, Effective, and High-Value Major Employment Policies
Wang Xiaoping (王晓萍) introduced that during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, the supporting conditions and basic trends for China's long-term economic improvement have not changed, the prospects for high-quality development are broad, and with strong institutional advantages, we have the confidence and ability to achieve overall employment stability and a positive trend.
Wang Xiaoping (王晓萍) introduced that we will deeply implement the employment-first strategy and continuously promote new progress in high-quality and full employment. We are working with relevant departments to prepare a special employment plan for the "15th Five-Year Plan," planning a batch of pragmatic, effective, and high-value major employment policies, action plans, etc., to improve the employment driving force of development; tap the employment potential of the digital economy, high-end manufacturing, and modern services, and expand capacity in promoting industrial upgrading; seize the time window of spring recruitment and before graduation, promote employment public services to enter campuses in advance, and carry out large-scale employment internships and skills training.
Wang Xiaoping (王晓萍) introduced that in focusing on the rights and interests protection of new employment form personnel, we have explored and carried out occupational injury insurance pilot projects in recent years. Currently, more than 25 million people have participated in insurance in 17 pilot provinces, and the pilot project will be further expanded to the national scope this year. In cultivating new occupations and new positions, we will continue to increase the development of new occupations around new quality productive forces, new consumption hotspots, and livelihood service security. In optimizing employment and social security services, we will improve the national social security public service platform, promote national "one-click inquiry" of social security rights and interests, so that people "do not have to worry about employment mobility, and social security relations continue to be calculated."
Better Establish the Brand Image of "China Tourism," "China Shopping," and "China Service"
Sun Yeli (孙业礼) introduced that during the Spring Festival holiday this year, the cultural and tourism market was very popular. The number of domestic tourists reached 596 million, and tourism spending exceeded 800 billion yuan, setting a new historical high. In the past year, the cultural and tourism industry has shown a good momentum of vigorous development. Last year, the annual revenue of cultural and related industrial enterprises above designated size reached 15 trillion yuan, an increase of 7.4% year-on-year; the number of domestic residents traveling exceeded 6.5 billion, an increase of more than 16% year-on-year, and tourism spending reached 6.3 trillion yuan, an increase of 9.5% year-on-year.
Sun Yeli (孙业礼) introduced that the next step will be to focus on the goal of building a strong cultural country and a strong tourism country, and prepare and implement the "15th Five-Year Plan" for cultural and tourism development. We will implement more proactive cultural and economic policies, prosper and develop cultural undertakings, improve the cultural industry system and market system, and launch more high-quality cultural products and services that satisfy the masses. We must take cultural and tourism integration as the main line and focus on truly cultivating the tourism industry into a livelihood industry, a happiness industry, and a strategic pillar industry.
In 2025, the number of inbound tourists will exceed 150 million, an increase of more than 17% year-on-year; inbound tourism spending will exceed 130 billion US dollars, an increase of nearly 40% year-on-year; among them, the number of foreign tourists entering the country visa-free will exceed 30 million. Sun Yeli (孙业礼) introduced that the next step will be to work with relevant departments to continuously improve the level of facilitation of the entire chain of inbound tourism, including visas, customs clearance, transportation, accommodation, catering, and sightseeing, and better establish the brand image of "China Tourism," "China Shopping," and "China Service."
Improve the Fairness and Accessibility of Medical and Health Services
Lei Haichao (雷海潮) used a set of data to introduce the development of China's health cause during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period.
The first data is 52.6%, which is the proportion of outpatient visits to primary medical and health institutions in China in 2025 that account for the total number of outpatient visits in the country throughout the year. In recent years, the number of outpatient visits to primary medical and health services in China has continued to rise, and the proportion of the overall number of outpatient visits has also continued to rise.
The second data is 15 minutes, which refers to the time it takes for people to get from their homes to the nearest medical service point. Lei Haichao (雷海潮) introduced that by the end of 2025, there will be more than 1.1 million medical and health institutions nationwide, and basic medical and health services will cover more than 1.4 billion residents.
The third data is 10,800 yuan, which refers to the monthly childcare subsidy of 300 yuan provided by China for infants born after January 1, 2022 who meet the requirements of laws and regulations. The subsidy is issued for 3 consecutive years, totaling 10,800 yuan. As of now, childcare subsidies have been issued to more than 33 million infants.
The fourth data is 79.25 years old, which is the average life expectancy of Chinese residents in 2025. Lei Haichao (雷海潮) introduced that the next step will be to adapt to the people's new expectations for a better life, so that everyone can live healthier and have a higher quality of life.
Lei Haichao (雷海潮) said that during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, a series of key projects will be implemented to strengthen the grassroots level, strengthen weaknesses and shortcomings, and improve the fairness and accessibility of medical and health services. At the same time, we will further promote the deepening of the reform of the medical and health system, improve and enhance the public welfare, service quality, and social benefits of public hospitals, and plan the construction of about 1,000 close-knit county medical communities.

On March 7th, the State Council Information Office (国务院新闻办公室) held a briefing to interpret the draft of the "15th Five-Year Plan" (“十五五”规划纲要) and answer questions from reporters.
More Than 1/3 of Indicators are Related to People's Livelihood
Key indicators are the key drivers for the implementation of the Five-Year Plan. Zheng Bei (郑备), Deputy Director of the National Development and Reform Commission (国家发展改革委), introduced that the draft of the "15th Five-Year Plan" takes into account both needs and possibilities, quantity and quality, and sets 20 main indicators in 5 aspects. Among them, the GDP growth target is set as "maintaining a reasonable range, proposed on a case-by-case basis each year, to lay a good foundation for doubling the per capita GDP by 2035 compared to 2020 and reaching the level of moderately developed countries," fully reflecting the clear guidance of promoting high-quality development.
Zheng Bei (郑备) introduced that the draft of the "15th Five-Year Plan" sets 7 indicators related to people's livelihood, accounting for more than 1/3 of the main indicators.
"The elderly and the young" are major issues of concern for many families. Liu Dechun (刘德春), Director of the Social Development Department of the National Development and Reform Commission (国家发展改革委), introduced that the draft of the "15th Five-Year Plan" specifically uses two chapters to elaborate on actively responding to population aging and building a fertility-friendly society.
In actively responding to population aging, to ensure that the elderly are provided for, improve the mechanism for determining and adjusting basic pension insurance benefits, gradually increase the basic pension for urban and rural residents, promote long-term care insurance, develop community-embedded elderly care services, family elderly care beds, and mutual assistance elderly care, renovate and upgrade 2,000 public elderly care institutions, and increase the proportion of nursing beds in elderly care institutions to 73%.

Bai Jingyu (白京羽), Director of the Innovation and High-Tech Development Department of the National Development and Reform Commission (国家发展改革委), introduced that the first is to increase the supply of high-quality science and technology, and firmly grasp the foundation of deep integration. The second is to strengthen the main position of enterprises in scientific and technological innovation, and firmly grasp the key to deep integration. The third is to promote the transformation and application of scientific and technological achievements, and firmly grasp the way to deep integration.
Build a Number of Major Science and Technology Infrastructure
The draft of the "15th Five-Year Plan" proposes to build a modern infrastructure system. What is the development direction of modern infrastructure in the next five years?
Chen Lei (陈雷), Director of the Development Strategy and Planning Department of the National Development and Reform Commission (国家发展改革委), introduced that the construction of a modern infrastructure system includes not only transportation, water conservancy, energy and other infrastructure, but also major science and technology infrastructure, information communication networks, computing power networks and other new types of infrastructure.
In terms of transportation, during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, the modern comprehensive transportation system will be improved, the "eight vertical and eight horizontal" (八纵八横) high-speed railway main channel and the national expressway network will be basically completed, the quality and upgrading of inland high-grade waterways will be promoted, and world-class port clusters and airport clusters will be basically completed.

"Extending festive greetings and best wishes," as the "March 8th" International Women's Day approaches, General Secretary Xi Jinping's (习近平) blessings provide warmth and strength to the vast number of female compatriots.
How should we describe the appearance of contemporary Chinese women? Recently, the stories of two roses have been deeply moving.
One is the "Jiaolong Rose," which traveled over 4,000 kilometers from Yunnan (云南) to Zhaosu County (昭苏县) in Xinjiang (新疆), and was placed in the Lighthouse Educated Youth Hall, with the floral language "If it is for love, then be invincible."
The other is the "Wenxiu Rose." In an online activity to name a new variety of rose, "Wenxiu" received the most votes, simply because "On the battlefield of poverty alleviation, you are a striking yellow flower."
Chinese women in the new era are the most beautiful flowers, blooming for the happiness of the people; they are also the most resilient beams, shouldering responsibilities for the great cause.
They have the courage to **顶天立地** (dǐng tiān lì dì - "top sky stand ground," of indomitable spirit; able to withstand any hardship).
"Let the two of us continue to work hard in the south and north of the motherland!" Last year, "Cave Doctor" Lu Shengmei (路生梅) and "Torch-Lighting Principal" Zhang Guimei (张桂梅) corresponded again, encouraging each other to dedicate themselves and persevere. "No matter how old you are, striving is always the right time," breaking through the definition of time; "I was born to be a high mountain, not a stream," establishing life coordinates. The "two plum blossoms" reflect the spiritual scale of women in the new era.
"Women are 'half the sky' of human society," and are creators of social material wealth and spiritual wealth. Competing in sports fields, challenging limits; embracing the countryside, reciting poems... Chinese women are enriching the era's picture with their personal ideals.
They have a tender heart for their families and country.
"As long as you do your job well, it is the greatest filial piety to your parents." Twenty-five years ago, Qi Xin (齐心) instructed Xi Jinping (习近平), who could not return home for the Spring Festival, in this way. The agreement between mother and son is deeply imprinted in the trajectory of the people's leader's governance, and is cast into the profound sentiment of "I will be selfless and live up to the people."
From the brilliance of motherhood, we can often see the reflection of home and country. Gong Quanzhen's (龚全珍) spirit of "not caring about gains and losses, and being willing to dedicate" is integrated into the family's bloodline through "teaching by example"; the "Loving Mother" volunteer organization knocks on the door of disadvantaged girls' hearts, and the care that transcends blood ties condenses into warm concern... In cultivating family traditions and practicing great love, women in the new era carefully irrigate pure and sincere souls, interpreting their love for family and country.
They also show the fragrance of beauty and harmony.
"Space also belongs to women." Female astronaut Wang Yaping (王亚平) has been to space twice. How broad is the stage for women in the new era? Sun Xiaoying (孙小英) of Pengying Village (彭营村) led the left-behind women, protecting the clear canal flowing to Danjiangkou (丹江口), and went all the way to the United Nations, offering the "her power" of poverty reduction and sustainable development; Yang Shuangyan (杨双艳), an inheritor of intangible cultural heritage, integrated new elements into traditional fish skin paintings, promoting the integration of ancient ethnic culture into the trend of the times...
"Every woman is the protagonist on the new journey of Chinese-style modernization!" From 2018 to 2025, female representatives of the National People's Congress (全国人大) made up 42.3% of the total number of proposals; in the past four Summer Olympic Games, female medal winners accounted for more than 60%; in the national Internet field, female entrepreneurs accounted for more than half... Chinese women, who are at the forefront of the times and at the forefront of development, are striving for their dreams, fighting for themselves, and dedicating themselves to the country, holding up a thriving and happy country.
Bless every woman in the new era to live out the "way you want to be" and become the "most beautiful you"!

March 6th, Beijing (北京), the press conference hall of the Great Hall of the People (人民大会堂). On the same day, Xinjiang (新疆), the report hall of the Party School of the Ili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture (伊犁哈萨克自治州委党校).
Two venues, thousands of kilometers apart, were closely connected by the same person and the same spirit.
"He Jiaolong (贺娇龙) used the internet to lead farmers out of poverty and into prosperity, practicing a dedication to the people with her life, moving the entire network." At the opening group activity of the Xinjiang (新疆) delegation, the words of Erkin Tuniyaz (艾尔肯·吐尼亚孜), Chairman of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region (新疆维吾尔自治区), touched the Chinese and foreign reporters present.
Yerxat Tursunbay (叶尔夏提·吐尔逊拜), Deputy Secretary of the Ili Prefecture Party Committee and Governor of the Prefecture, said when answering reporters' questions: "Every practical thing He Jiaolong (贺娇龙) has done for the development of culture and tourism and the revitalization of the countryside in Xinjiang (新疆) is firmly remembered by us, constantly stirring our hearts. She always has the people in her heart, and the people will firmly remember her in their hearts." As soon as he finished speaking, some listeners on the scene were moved to tears.
In an interview after the meeting, Zoya Baheti (卓娅·巴合提), curator of the Altay (阿勒泰) Region Cultural Relics Museum in Xinjiang (新疆), said: "The exemplary role of Party members is written in the Party Constitution and integrated into daily study and practice. Comrade He Jiaolong (贺娇龙), as well as Comrade Huang Wenxiu (黄文秀) before her, are among the thousands of outstanding Communist Party members who have interpreted the exemplary role of pioneers with practical actions."
People remember He Jiaolong (贺娇龙) not only because her "out-of-circle" short videos went viral across the internet, but also because she turned "traffic" into a "growth" in people's livelihoods; people admire her not because of her glamorous titles, but because she regards her position as a front for dedication.
Time will not betray those who work hard, and the years will always remember those who cultivate.
At almost the same moment, in the report hall of the Ili Prefecture Party School (伊犁州委党校), at the advanced deeds report meeting of Comrade He Jiaolong (贺娇龙), He Jiaolong's (贺娇龙) image became more vivid and lively in the narration of Guminjiang Rehemujiang (格敏江·热合木江), a docent at the Zhaosu County (昭苏县) Lighthouse Educated Youth Hall. He choked up several times as he recalled the scene of He Jiaolong (贺娇龙) teaching him Mandarin and encouraging him to become a docent.
Today, the Educated Youth Hall has a special "Jiaolong Hall," and every item in it carries people's thoughts and respect for her. Many people come to the Educated Youth Hall and write down what they want to say to her on the message board.
"What she did during her lifetime is what we must also try to do, do well, and continue, turning love into action, shouldering responsibility, and contributing more to the development of the cultural and tourism industry in our hometown." Kong Feifei (孔菲菲), Deputy General Manager of Xinjiang Ili Culture and Tourism Industry Group Co., Ltd. (新疆伊犁文化旅游产业集团有限公司), said that in future work, she will let more people understand Ili (伊犁), fall in love with Ili (伊犁), and also let the fruits of development benefit more people.
What is the correct view of political achievements?
He Jiaolong (贺娇龙) gave the answer with her life - to make political achievements for the people, to make political achievements with practical work, not in the data comparison of the moment, but in the word-of-mouth of the people; not in personal fame and success, but in the development and revitalization of the border areas.

"In 10 years, Yujia Tai Village (于家台村) has transformed: industries are thriving, the collective is prosperous, the village is beautiful, and the people are warm." On the afternoon of March 5th, at the fourth plenary meeting of the 14th National People's Congress (全国人大) Liaoning (辽宁) delegation, Tong Liang (佟亮), Party Branch Secretary and Director of the Village Committee of Yujia Tai Village (于家台村), Panjiabao Town (潘家堡镇), Liaozhong District (辽中区), Shenyang City (沈阳市), told everyone about the changes in his hometown – the former "debt-ridden village" has grown into a "National Civilized Village" (全国文明村) and a "National Rural Governance Demonstration Village" (全国乡村治理示范村).
Tong Liang (佟亮) is a village cadre who returned to his hometown. In 2016, Tong Liang (佟亮) gave up his job in the city and returned to the village to serve as the village Party secretary.
There are thousands of things to develop, but first, we must sort out the family property.
Looking at the account books, "As soon as I took office, I was faced with more than 3 million yuan of collective village debt." Listening to the voices of the people, "The villagers also looked at me with skeptical eyes, wondering if I could help everyone get rich," Tong Liang (佟亮) recalled.
Tong Liang (佟亮) held more than 30 villagers' symposiums with the village's party members and cadres. What are the villagers most concerned about? What problems do they want to solve the most? After a series of symposiums, the village found a way to solve the development problem.
"There is a lot of garbage and the environment is poor, and everyone is looking forward to improving the appearance of the village. I led party members and cadres to carry iron shovels and pick up brooms to clear garbage shovel by shovel," Tong Liang (佟亮) said. The slightest change warmed the hearts of the villagers, and gradually, more and more party members and the masses joined the team of voluntary rectification of the village environment.
How can a new official not deal with old debts? Tong Liang (佟亮) was determined to find a way to pay off the village's collective debt. After investigation, he found that the village's fish ponds and river滩地 belonged to the village collective, and cleaning up and revitalizing them could change the situation of 抱着金饭碗讨饭吃 (bào zhe jīn fàn wǎn tǎo fàn chī - "holding a golden rice bowl begging for food," possessing valuable resources but failing to utilize them effectively). "Through competitive bidding, the village paid off its debts after a year and entered a virtuous cycle of development," Tong Liang (佟亮) said. In recent years, the village has also established village-run enterprises, driving the village's collective annual income to exceed 1.5 million yuan.
The village is beautiful, the collective economy is stronger, and the villagers' pockets must also be filled. "After thinking about it, we still have to make a fuss on the black land," Tong Liang (佟亮) said. The village cadres went out to learn from experience and led the villagers to develop facility agriculture, building more than 3,000 acres of greenhouses and turning tomatoes into a wealth-generating industry. Today, more than 100 villagers in the village have become rich through vegetable greenhouses. In the past 10 years, the per capita annual income of Yujia Tai Village (于家台村) has increased from 15,000 yuan to 30,000 yuan.
Now, the village has set up scholarships for children who are admitted to universities and graduate schools to encourage them to study hard and make progress; during winter and summer vacations, the rooms with the best environment are used to run student托管班; day care centers are set up for the elderly; "village evenings" are held to enrich the spiritual and cultural life of the villagers... "Doing good deeds and practical things one by one will make everyone feel warmer, more comfortable, and more united," Tong Liang (佟亮) said.
In the Yujia Tai Village (于家台村) Village History Museum, a series of comparison photos record the development and changes of the past 10 years; the old objects and "smiling faces wall" donated by the villagers themselves carry the villagers' full sense of happiness.
From a "debt-ridden village" to a "demonstration village," Tong Liang (佟亮) summarized the key to the change as strengthening the construction of grassroots party organizations, "With the village party organization as the 'backbone' leading everyone to work together, the countryside will have a future, and the farmers will have hope."
Return to TopThe strategic decision made by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (中共中央) is to build a healthy China by 2035. The "Fifteenth Five-Year Plan" is a crucial period for achieving this goal. We must make overall plans, accelerate progress, and strive for decisive progress.
——March 6, 2026, Xi Jinping (习近平), General Secretary, emphasized this when visiting members of the China National Democratic Construction Association (农工党), Jiusan Society (九三学社), medical and health circles, social welfare and social security circles attending the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (政协会议).
General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平) pointed out that building a healthy China is a systematic project. Faced with the people's growing and diversified health needs, we must highlight key points, firmly grasp the work that benefits a wide range of people and affects the overall situation, and concentrate our efforts and resources on improving the public health system, building a high-quality and efficient medical service system, and advocating healthy and civilized lifestyles, and take effective measures to promote them, and constantly achieve new results.
Building the world's largest medical and health service system, improving the public health service system covering urban and rural areas, and reaching an average life expectancy of 79.25 years... During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, China systematically promoted the construction of a healthy China and continued to improve the overall health level of the people. The sky is bluer, the water is greener, and the people around us are healthier and live longer. The continuous improvement of people's well-being provides an escort for the physical and mental health of the masses.

"Blue Sky is also Recharging Health"
By Li Rui (李蕊) and Liu Wenxin (刘温馨), reporters of this newspaper
During busy intervals, look up at the sky—Zhang Jinhai (张金海), a deputy to the National People's Congress (全国人大代表) and an employee of the Wetland City Construction Promotion Center of Dongying City (东营市), Shandong Province (山东省), who has been working in sanitation for 30 years, has developed this habit.
As a sanitation worker, Zhang Jinhai (张金海) saw the dawn of the city the earliest and felt the changes in the sky the earliest. His mobile phone stores many photos of the sky taken casually—from a gray haze to a translucent state, and now to a clear blue. These photos are a direct testimony to the changes in air quality in Dongying (东营).
Not only "seeing" the changes, Zhang Jinhai (张金海) also wants to "create" changes with his own hands. When he first started working, he experienced the hardships of sanitation workers: brooms were heavy, dust was everywhere, and efficiency was low. Dust not only pollutes the environment but also affects people's health. Relying on his self-taught electrical appliance repair technology, he bought components, repeatedly designed drawings, disassembled, assembled, and tested them, and finally invented a retractable broom for sanitation, which directly reduced secondary dust during road cleaning and contributed to improving air quality and protecting citizens' respiratory health.
As a deputy to the National People's Congress (全国人大代表), Zhang Jinhai's (张金海) performance notebook has a "blue sky account book," recording every step of Dongying's (东营) environmental improvement: In 2025, the average concentration of PM2.5 in Dongying (东营) was 27 micrograms/cubic meter, an improvement of 15.6% year-on-year, the largest improvement in the province; the number of days with excellent air quality was 290 days, an increase of 30 days year-on-year; and the number of heavily polluted days was 0 days, a decrease of 3 days year-on-year. "What is written on paper is numbers, and what falls into the lives of the people is that windows can be opened for a few more days, clothes can be dried for a few more pieces, and fresh air can be breathed when going out in the morning," Zhang Jinhai (张金海) said. Seemingly simple details reflect the most direct gift of improved living environment to the health of citizens.
The continuous improvement of the environment has brought tangible health benefits. Zhang Jinhai (张金海) revealed: In 2024, the average life expectancy in Dongying City (东营市) has reached 81.94 years. "This is not a boring number, but the best example of Dongying (东营) putting the health of the people in their hearts and implementing it in detail over the years. Blue sky is also recharging health!" Zhang Jinhai (张金海) said.
Zhang Jinhai (张金海) has such a story around him—
Pang Xingyi (庞兴义), a villager in Zao Li Village (皂李村), Daozhuang Town (稻庄镇), Guangrao County (广饶县), Dongying City (东营市), recently celebrated his 89th birthday. Pang Xingyi (庞兴义) usually goes out for walks and plays chess when he has nothing to do, witnessing the changes in the living environment bit by bit: "In recent years, the roads in the village have been repaired smoothly, and the environmental sanitation has also been done very well. It is bright and comfortable to live in."
Living in fresh air and a clean environment, Pang Xingyi (庞兴义) is full of hope for the future: "I will enjoy my old age in this increasingly beautiful countryside. I have to take good care of myself and continue this blessing."
Faced with the people's new expectations for a healthy life, Zhang Jinhai (张金海) also has his own thoughts and suggestions: "We must guard the ecological background of blue sky and clear water, build a health defense line for medical and health care, so that the health benefits of the general public will be greater, and the sense of gain, happiness, and security will be more sufficient!"
"The Water is Clearer, and Everyone is Physically and Mentally Comfortable"
By Fu Mingli (付明丽) and Shi Yiqi (史一棋), reporters of this newspaper
More than 20 words and two photos garnered more than 150 likes—Wang Runmei's (王润梅) WeChat Moments went viral.
Both photos are of the scenery near Yingze Bridge (迎泽大桥) in Taiyuan City (太原市), Shanxi Province (山西省). One is from 5 years ago, and the other is from now.
Before going to Beijing to attend the National People's Congress (全国两会), Wang Runmei (王润梅), a deputy to the National People's Congress (全国人大代表), the Party Branch Secretary, Deputy Director, and Head of Waterway Team 3 of the Road Drainage Support 2nd Division of the Taiyuan Municipal Public Facilities Construction Management Center (太原市市政公共设施建设管理中心), posted these two photos in her WeChat Moments with the caption: "Five years ago vs. today, setting off for Beijing, carrying the changes of this bridge and this river!"
Yingze Bridge (迎泽大桥) spans the Fen River (汾河) and is now a popular check-in spot in the city. Wang Runmei (王润梅) has been working in municipal administration in Taiyuan (太原) for more than 30 years and is responsible for the maintenance of Yingze Bridge (迎泽大桥). Every day, she passes the Fen River (汾河) from west to east on her way to work, and she has taken many photos along the way. "I watched the Fen River (汾河) water become clearer and the banks become greener. The water is clearer, and everyone is physically and mentally comfortable." As she spoke, she took out her mobile phone and flipped through her album to show the reporter.
The visible changes are backed by a tough battle. During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, Taiyuan (太原) shut down and eliminated backward production capacity with unprecedented efforts, and coordinated the promotion of "governing mountains, governing water, governing air, and governing the city." In 2025, all 6 national assessment sections were excellent water bodies, and the air quality also achieved qualitative improvement.
As a deputy to the National People's Congress (全国人大代表), Wang Runmei (王润梅) has been paying attention to the issue of urban rainwater and sewage diversion and has repeatedly put forward relevant suggestions. During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, Taiyuan (太原) made every effort to promote the rainwater and sewage diversion and drainage pipe network renovation in the built-up area. As of now, more than 110 kilometers of combined sewer pipe network have been renovated, and more than 3,000 rainwater and sewage mixed connection points have been rectified. After the renovation, the city's average daily 79,800 cubic meters of sewage was separated from the rainwater system and incorporated into the sewage system for standardized disposal, fundamentally reversing the situation of combined rainwater and sewage, and building an ecological protection barrier in the Yellow River Basin from the source.
The lives of Taiyuan (太原) people are inseparable from the Fen River (汾河). The improvement of the ecological environment has been effectively transformed into health benefits for the people. In the past two years, more than 40 scenic spots such as Yanqiu Garden (雁丘园) and Fenhe Evening Ferry (汾河晚渡) have been set up on both sides of the Fen River (汾河), and sports venues such as beach volleyball courts, football fields, and green trails have been built. Many citizens come to exercise in the morning and evening, and the Fen River (汾河) has become a fitness venue at their doorstep.
"In the past, I used to wear a mask when I went out. Now that the environment is better, Taiyuan (太原) has also been rated as a 'China Climate Livable City'. Everyone likes to go out and breathe fresh air when they have time," Wang Runmei (王润梅) said. She likes to walk with her family along the Fen River (汾河) to relax.
Now, 165 species of birds have been found to inhabit and forage in the Taiyuan Fen River Wetland (太原汾河湿地). In spring, red-billed gulls will also fly in on time. "I have contributed to the clearing of the Fen River (汾河) water. The suggestions over the years have not been in vain!" Wang Runmei (王润梅) said with emotion. In 2024, the average life expectancy of the population in Taiyuan City (太原市) reached 80.81 years, an increase of 1.87 years compared with 2019.
"Not only Taiyuan (太原), but the environment in many places in Shanxi (山西) has improved. Friends in Linfen (临汾) said that the air in Linfen (临汾) has also improved, and they don't think blue sky is rare now," Wang Runmei (王润梅) said with a smile. She specially printed two photos of Taiyuan (太原) city and brought them with her before coming to Beijing this time. "The ecological environment has improved, and the people have truly enjoyed the benefits. I want to share this joy and pride." Her bright eyes were full of pride.
"The Number of Long-Lived Elderly People in the Village is Increasing"
By Yang Xun (杨迅) and Min Fangzheng (闵方正), reporters of this newspaper
As a village doctor for 14 years, Yang Jinjun (杨进军) has witnessed the increasing convenience of medical treatment for the Miao people while protecting the health of his fellow villagers.
He is a deputy to the National People's Congress (全国人大代表) and also a village doctor in Dashui Village (大水村), Tingping Township (汀坪乡), Chengbu Miao Autonomous County (城步苗族自治县), Shaoyang City (邵阳市), Hunan Province (湖南省). During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the construction of a close-knit county medical community was fully promoted, and the "last mile" of public health prevention and control was continuously unblocked. As a guardian of the health of the villagers, Yang Jinjun (杨进军) can play a greater role and has a greater sense of accomplishment.
In the past, there was no health center in the village. Villagers relied on carrying minor illnesses. If they couldn't carry it, they had to cross two mountains to go to the township health center 20 kilometers away for medical treatment. Some people carried it for a long time and developed serious illnesses. Now that there is a health center, common medicines are readily available, and it is much more convenient for everyone to see a doctor. Basic diseases such as upper respiratory tract infections, diabetes, and hypertension can be diagnosed and treated in the village health center.
"The number of long-lived elderly people in the village is increasing," Yang Jinjun (杨进军) said. There are now more than 20 elderly people over 80 years old in the village. The increase in the number of long-lived elderly people is inseparable from the improvement of basic medical services. "I have sorted out the health records of more than 600 villagers. In recent years, I have regularly followed up and conducted chronic disease management to help everyone protect their health."
An elderly man in the village named Qin Lianglu (秦良炉) once often experienced headaches, dizziness, chest tightness, and other symptoms. His family saw that something was wrong and took him to the village health center. After examination, Yang Jinjun (杨进军) determined that the elderly man had high blood pressure and high blood sugar, so he guided the elderly man's family to control the elderly man's dietary calories: "Eat more green vegetables, do not eat fruits, the staple food should be coarse grains, eat less refined rice and white flour, and eat small meals frequently." Now, the old man is 86 years old, his blood sugar is normal, he is in good spirits, and he walks steadily.
Yang Jinjun (杨进军) said that in recent years, township health centers have added specialized departments such as psychiatry, gynecology, and pediatrics, and can perform examinations and tests such as electrocardiograms and B-ultrasounds, which greatly facilitates the villagers. After the promotion of the construction of a close-knit county medical community, it is more convenient for villagers to transfer to higher-level hospitals. A villager named Tang Wengui (唐文桂) suffered from a mild cerebral infarction. His family called Yang Jinjun (杨进军). Yang Jinjun (杨进军) rushed to Tang Wengui's (唐文桂) home and found that his blood pressure was high and his lips were purple. He suggested that he be transferred to the People's Hospital in the county as soon as possible. Because the transfer channel was smooth and he received timely treatment, Tang Wengui's (唐文桂) health is still good.
How to further improve the health level of villagers? Yang Jinjun (杨进军) said that from the perspective of basic village doctors, he advocates promoting the construction of county medical sub-centers and realizing equipment sharing and co-use based on medical communities. If it is realized, the most direct benefit for the elderly in the village is that heart disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease can be solved in township health centers, saving time, effort, resources, and ultimately worry.
"I also hope that in the future, we can realize hierarchical diagnosis and treatment through remote diagnosis and treatment, so that data can run more and the masses can run less. Take a fall as an example. If remote diagnosis and treatment is implemented, an injured villager can take an X-ray at the township health center, and experts from large hospitals in the province can provide remote diagnosis and treatment. It is convenient to think about it!" Yang Jinjun (杨进军) envisioned.
He also called for attracting medical talents to take root in the grassroots through targeted training, tilting of职称晋升, and improvement of salary and benefits. "I hope that there will be more and more villages with health centers in the future, and the construction of county medical sub-centers will become more and more perfect, just like adding bricks and tiles to buildings, which will eventually converge into a beautiful picture of a healthy China!"

Standing on the new level of an average life expectancy of 79.25 years, looking back, during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, China's average life expectancy increased by more than 1 year; looking forward, where is the future room for improvement? My thinking is: not just simply extending the absolute lifespan, but focusing on improving healthy lifespan. Healthy China is by no means a simple increase in the average life expectancy figure, but to enable all people to achieve living longer, living healthier, and living with quality.
Making the people live longer and healthier is the key focus for the next five years, ten years, or even longer. Moving the medical gate forward and reducing major and serious illnesses from the source is the most direct handle to improve life expectancy. At present, chronic diseases are still highly prevalent in China. Hypertension, diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and lung cancer, which one is not a factor in reducing healthy lifespan? Speaking of COPD alone, many mild to moderate patients are ignored because they have no symptoms in the early stage, and they only seek medical treatment when they cannot breathe, and their lung function has been irreversibly damaged. Why is the five-year survival rate of lung cancer low? It is also because it is discovered too late. Therefore, to improve the average life expectancy, the important breakthrough in the future is to include lung function and lung cancer screening into routine physical examinations, so that COPD can be diagnosed, intervened, and managed as early as hypertension and diabetes, and the grassroots level can become the main battlefield for chronic disease screening and management.
Building a healthy China is by no means a simple comparison of numbers, but a complete shift from "disease treatment-centered" to "people's health-centered." This is reflected in chronic diseases: instead of waiting until the disease is serious before treating it, we should put early detection, early diagnosis, and early treatment first, and make early screening and early treatment the norm. Extend the management of COPD, hypertension, and diabetes to the community, so that the people can enjoy standardized health services at their doorstep. This service must also be inclusive and accessible, regardless of urban or rural areas, rich or poor, or age. The developed drugs, instruments, and technologies should also be simple, inexpensive, effective, and safe. High-quality medical resources should reach more people through medical consortia and regional medical centers, so that people in remote areas can also conveniently see a doctor and see a good doctor. In the end, Healthy China is to make everyone the first person responsible for their own health, to make medical services more inclusive, health protection more comprehensive, and health concepts more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Personally, the root of health lies in oneself. I have always emphasized these points: psychological balance, reasonable diet, appropriate exercise, quitting smoking and limiting alcohol, and early diagnosis and early treatment. The elderly should especially abandon the idea of **“无症状即健康”** (wú zhèng zhuàng jí jiàn kāng - "no symptoms means healthy," the misconception that absence of symptoms equates to good health) and "it will pass if you endure it," and take the initiative to do screening and early diagnosis. At the same time, we must create a green and livable living environment, make a healthy lifestyle a social consensus, and reduce the occurrence of diseases from the source.
At the same time, it is not enough to only manage chronic diseases, but also to effectively respond to sudden public health events. The impact of major public health events on public health and life expectancy is global. In the future, we must make advance preparations for the prevention and control of respiratory viruses, zoonotic diseases, etc., seize the initiative in drug and vaccine research and development, improve the grassroots public health monitoring network, and extend the monitoring tentacles to the source of communities, farmers' markets, and livestock and poultry farms. We must transform the emergency system from "passive response" to "proactive prediction, precise disposal, and long-term guarantee," and prevent small risks from evolving into large epidemics, achieve early detection and early disposal, and avoid the health losses caused by large-scale spread of the epidemic. This is an important defense line to ensure the steady improvement of life expectancy.
All of this is inseparable from technological innovation, and technological innovation must truly become the core driving force for leading the health cause. Technological innovation must be down-to-earth and serve the people. In the development of the health cause, the core value of technological innovation lies in accurately identifying the core needs of clinical and public health, using technological breakthroughs to solve problems and make up for shortcomings, and truly integrating innovative achievements into the entire process of health protection. This is also the key to making technological innovation a leading driving force.
Healthy China is not a distant goal, but a life that everyone can reach. Manage health, prevent diseases, and protect life. When a healthy lifestyle becomes a social consensus and conscious action, we can truly achieve living longer, living healthier, and living with quality.

The government work report proposes that the supporting conditions and basic trends of China's long-term economic improvement have not changed, and the advantages of the system and the advantages of a large country are constantly highlighted.
Electricity consumption provides a window for observing the Chinese economy.
In 2025, China's electricity consumption exceeded 10 trillion kilowatt-hours for the first time, exceeding the total electricity consumption of the United States, Germany, Japan, and India. During this year's Spring Festival holiday, the average daily electricity consumption of emerging industries such as aviation, aerospace, electronic information, and new energy vehicles in Jiangsu (江苏) achieved double-digit growth; more than 4,700 industrial enterprises in Zhejiang (浙江) maintained an average daily electricity consumption of more than 80% of their usual levels; Hainan's (海南) tourism market was booming, with an average daily electricity consumption of the tertiary industry increasing by 17.3%... Full power demonstrates the strong momentum of the Chinese economy.
The vitality of pursuing new and green drives manufacturing electricity to new heights.
Scene
Currently, Weihai Dishang Kenny Fashion Co., Ltd. is being "chased" by orders. In the production workshop, cutting beds precisely cut fabrics, AGV trolleys transport materials across floors, and intelligent hanging equipment assists workers in sewing.
"Since the start of work after the Spring Festival, the electricity load has been running at a high level, and electricity consumption has increased by about 15% year-on-year," introduced Zhu Lihua (朱立华), representative, Party Secretary, and Chairman of Dishang Group Co., Ltd. (迪尚集团有限公司). After applying the digital management system, the company's production efficiency has increased by more than 30% compared with the traditional model.
Connection
Representatives and members believe that traditional industries are accelerating towards "excellence," emerging industries are pursuing "newness" and seeking "quality," and the pace of "green" transformation is steady. These new quality productive forces are booming, driving the demand for production electricity to rise. For example, data from State Grid Zhejiang Electric Power (国网浙江电力) shows that during the Spring Festival holiday, the average daily electricity consumption of Zhejiang's (浙江) new energy vehicles, lithium batteries, and photovoltaic products "new three" industries increased by 44.1% year-on-year.
Turning, stretching, waving arms... At the manufacturing and delivery center of Efort Intelligent Robot Co., Ltd. (埃夫特智能机器人股份有限公司) in Wuhu (芜湖), Anhui (安徽), industrial robots are undergoing final testing before "taking up their posts." "The production volume in the first quarter of this year is expected to increase by 30% year-on-year, and we are working hard to catch up with deliveries even during the Spring Festival," said Zhang Wei (张帷), Deputy General Manager of the company. With the increasing demand for large-load robots, the company is preparing to add another production line. Data from State Grid Anhui Electric Power (国网安徽电力) shows that from January to February, the electricity consumption of related enterprises in Anhui's (安徽) robot manufacturing industry increased by 26.15% year-on-year.
Xu Lijin (许礼进), member and Chairman of Wuhu Robot Industry Development Group Co., Ltd. (芜湖机器人产业发展集团有限公司), believes that with the improvement of intelligence levels and the expansion of application boundaries, the robot industry is becoming an important growth pole for high-end equipment manufacturing. "The output value of the six major emerging industries, including integrated circuits, aerospace, biomedicine, low-altitude economy, new energy storage, and intelligent robots, is expected to reach a new level by 2030. These industries have become important engines for driving the growth of electricity consumption."
In 2025, China's electricity consumption in high-tech and equipment manufacturing increased by 6.4% year-on-year, 3 percentage points higher than the average growth level of manufacturing during the same period.
E-commerce and cultural tourism heat stimulate the surge of consumption electricity.
Scene
As night falls, the Maker Street in Lizu Village (李祖村), Yiwu (义乌), Zhejiang (浙江), is brightly lit. Here, consumers in the live broadcast room are busy placing orders. In the "Desert Dyehouse" live broadcast room, the principal is showing tie-dye craftsmanship to the camera, and orders for handicrafts are sent to all parts of the country; the "Lizu Agricultural Innovation Goodies" live broadcast room uses the resources gathered by makers and agricultural specialty products to transform into a rural version of the small commodity city. There, express delivery companies are busy sending orders. In an express delivery distribution center in Yiwu (义乌), the lights are also brightly lit late at night. During the Spring Festival holiday, the Yiwu (义乌) express delivery industry "did not close," and pieces of good things were sent from here to all parts of the country. On February 26, Yiwu (义乌) completed 56.3 million express delivery business volume in a single day, setting a new historical high.
"With consumption preferences becoming more personalized and quality-oriented, new consumption models such as live streaming e-commerce are developing rapidly, and international trade and rural cultural tourism are integrated here. The village enjoys the dividends of development," said Fang Haolong (方豪龙), representative and Party Branch Secretary of Lizu Village (李祖村).
Connection
Chen Anwei (陈安伟), representative and Chairman of State Grid Zhejiang Electric Power Co., Ltd. (国网浙江省电力有限公司), introduced that in the first week after the Spring Festival, Zhejiang's (浙江) electricity consumption in the Internet and related service industries reached 112 million kilowatt-hours, achieving double-digit high growth; electricity consumption in the express delivery service industry increased by 5.2%; electricity consumption in the information transmission, software and information technology service industries increased by 11.9%, maintaining high-level operation. "The rising electricity consumption data reflects the good momentum of Zhejiang's (浙江) 'new consumption' industry chain."
In Nanjing (南京), Jiangsu (江苏), the Xinjiekou (新街口) business district is crowded with people. In the smart home appliance experience area of Deji Plaza (德基广场), consumers experience efficient and energy-saving air conditioners and smart home systems. The heat of cultural tourism is fully activated, which is reflected in the electricity "barometer." Data from State Grid Jiangsu Electric Power (国网江苏电力) shows that during the Spring Festival holiday, the average daily electricity consumption of comprehensive retail malls such as Deji Plaza (德基广场) in the Xinjiekou (新街口) business district increased by more than 10% year-on-year.
"Consumption trends are changing, and experiential and scenario-based consumption is constantly heating up. Formats such as culture, tourism, performing arts, and catering are accelerating integration, and new consumption scenarios are continuously innovating, which not only stimulates consumption enthusiasm but also drives the development of related industries," said Liu Cong (刘聪), member and Chairman of the Jiangsu Federation of Industry and Commerce (江苏省工商联).
Data intelligence computing power drives AI electricity to surge.
Scene
Guian New District (贵安新区), Guizhou (贵州), one of the regions with the largest concentration of large-scale data centers in the country, the 500 kV Machang (马场) transmission and transformation project with a total investment of 510 million yuan has entered the final sprint stage. After completion, it will provide 2 million kilowatts of power supply to ensure the electricity needs of 26 large data centers and nearly 300,000 standard racks.
"Guizhou (贵州) has both the advantages of a 'West-to-East Power Transmission' channel and a 'East-Data-West-Computing' hub. From January to February, the electricity consumption of data centers in Guian New District (贵安新区) increased by 51.6% year-on-year," introduced Zhou Jingyu (周敬余), representative and Deputy Squad Leader of the Substation Intelligent Operation Squad of China Southern Power Grid Guizhou Tongren Power Supply Bureau (南方电网贵州铜仁供电局). During the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, China Southern Power Grid (南方电网) will focus on key projects such as centralized green power supply and all-DC power supply to explore new models for coordinated development of computing power and electricity.
Connection
"Behind artificial intelligence is computing power, and behind computing power is electricity." The relevant person in charge of the China Electricity Council (中国电力企业联合会) introduced that China (我国) has made significant progress in the construction of new infrastructure such as artificial intelligence and 5G networks, which has greatly promoted the growth of electricity consumption in related industries. From 2021 to 2025, the average annual growth of electricity consumption for Internet data services was 35.9%.
Kaixian'gong Village (开弦弓村) in Wujiang District (吴江区), Suzhou (苏州), Jiangsu (江苏), has a 10-minute charging circle in the village and a 3-minute charging circle in the scenic area, allowing tourists to conveniently experience rural tourism. As of the end of December 2025, the number of electric vehicle charging facilities in China (我国) exceeded 20 million, and 28 million charging facilities will be built by the end of 2027. Investment in the charging infrastructure field is growing well, driving the electricity consumption of the national charging and swapping industry to increase by nearly 50% year-on-year in 2025.
During the survey, He Guanghua (何光华), representative and Director of the Cable Operation and Maintenance Center of State Grid Wuxi Power Supply Company (国网无锡供电公司), felt deeply: "With the rapid growth of new energy vehicle ownership, various places are accelerating the layout of charging infrastructure, which not only solves the problem of energy replenishment for travel but also drives consumption scenarios such as self-driving travel and rural tourism to become more active." According to the plan, State Grid Jiangsu Electric Power (国网江苏电力) plans to build 4,500 new charging guns in 2026 to further strengthen the charging network in highways, cities, and towns.
Extending the timeline, from 2011, when power generation capacity and power generation became the world's largest power country, and per capita electricity consumption exceeded the world average level; to 2015, when the electricity consumption problem of the unelectrified population was fully resolved, and "power was connected to every village" was achieved in 2020; and then to 2025, when the total social electricity consumption exceeded 10 trillion kilowatt-hours for the first time... China (我国) has built the world's largest clean power supply system, with an average power supply reliability rate of over 99.9%. Behind the full power, it supports the bustling life of "small families" and also reflects the prosperity of "everyone."

This year's government work report proposed for the first time to "create a new form of intelligent economy," and to "implement new infrastructure projects such as ultra-large-scale intelligent computing clusters and computing-electricity synergy." This brings endless imagination and solid support for the new leap of economic society.
Putting the deployment of the government work report together with two recent events makes it easier to appreciate China's advantages.
The first is that power equipment manufacturing enterprises in Guangdong (广东), Jiangsu (江苏) and other places have their production lines fully loaded. With the rapid growth of global computing power demand, countries are expanding data centers, and overseas orders for China's power equipment are growing explosively, which corresponds to the investment community's saying - "The end of AI is electricity."
The second is that from February 9th to 15th this year, the call volume of Chinese AI models reached 4.12 trillion Tokens, surpassing the United States for the first time. This is because global developers have found that running tasks with Chinese models is much cheaper than using American models.
It is foreseeable that the demand for electricity from AI will explode in the future. The essence of Token going overseas is to turn electricity into computing power, and then turn computing power into intelligence. Whoever's electricity is cheaper, whoever's electricity is more stable, and whoever's power grid is adjusted faster will hold the cost bottom card of the AI era. Therefore, another sentence is circulating on the Internet, called "The end of electricity is China."
In fact, there is a gap between the United States and China in terms of AI development support. From the perspective of power infrastructure construction, the US power grid is divided into three almost unconnected independent systems in the east, west, and Texas, which are often "unable to send electricity when there is electricity, and unable to adjust electricity when there is a shortage," and the stability, load capacity, and infrastructure speed are not keeping up.
On March 4th, Academician Wang Jian (王坚) of the Chinese Academy of Engineering said in an interview that if the United States wants to build a power plant, it must start with the most basic transformer, "The manufacturing of transformers is mainly in China."
So those tech giants are already anxious. Microsoft was forced to build its own gas turbine power generation due to power grid access delays; Google signed a huge power purchase agreement with a nuclear power company... If electricity is still not enough, then it can only "suffer the people." Regional grid operators in Michigan and Virginia announced that the electricity bills for 67 million Americans in their service areas will increase by 20% to 30% in 2026.
In an energy system centered on capital, no one is willing to pay for long-term investment. If there is not enough electricity, the price will rise, and if it rises to the point where you can't afford it, the demand will naturally decrease. This simple "capital logic" will result in unfriendliness to its people.
China is taking a completely different path.
First, look at a number: In 2025, China's total social electricity consumption will exceed 10 trillion kilowatt-hours, ranking first in the world, more than twice that of the United States; in July and August 2025, electricity consumption exceeded 1 trillion kilowatt-hours for two consecutive months, setting a world record. There were no power restrictions and no price increases.
How can China do it?
Treat electricity as a public product, highlighting the word "benefit." 46 UHV projects have erected large channels for "West-to-East Power Transmission" (西电东送) and "North-to-South Power Supply" (北电南供). "Eastern Data and Western Computing" (东数西算) allows data centers to be built directly in areas rich in green electricity, and the wind and light in the west are turned into computing power, and then go to the world along the optical cable. At the same time, million-kilowatt hydropower stations, advanced nuclear power units, and heavy-duty gas turbines have made breakthroughs one after another, and the power base is getting thicker and thicker.
What's really powerful behind this is not just a certain line or a certain power station, but a system that can concentrate its efforts to do big things. The United States does not not know that the power grid should be upgraded, but no one in the market is willing to pay the money and wait for the return cycle.
China insists on moderately advanced development, and before there is a shortage of electricity, it will first build the lines and build the power stations in preparation for emergencies; it insists on a nationwide approach to promote the optimal integration of resources.
At the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (全国两会), many deputies and members focused on the field of energy security. What everyone is concerned about is not only whether it is tight at the moment, but how to continue to have enough in the next ten or twenty years.
Last month, the State Grid Corporation of China (国家电网) announced that the fixed asset investment during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period is expected to reach 4 trillion yuan, an increase of 40% compared with the "14th Five-Year Plan" period. When others are still worried about today's electricity, we are already making the first move and paving the way for high-quality energy development.
Return to Top"Energy security is a matter of national importance, a 'matter of great importance for the country' (国之大者 (guó zhī dà zhě - "matter of great importance for the country," refers to issues that are crucial to the nation's well-being and security)), and we must firmly hold our energy bowl." Zhang Qiang (张强), a Level 6 staff member of the State Grid Jiangsu Electric Power Co., Ltd. Taixing Power Supply Branch (国网江苏省电力有限公司泰兴市供电分公司), said that with the continuous development of the economy and society, the demand for electricity is constantly increasing, and the importance of the safe and stable operation of the power grid is becoming increasingly prominent.

"Come to Guizhou's 'Village Horse Race' ('村马'), you will see a different kind of original ecological horse racing!"
On March 6th, at the open group meeting of the Guizhou delegation to the Fourth Session of the 14th National People's Congress, as soon as the words of Yang Kai (杨凯), representative and county head of Sandu Shui Autonomous County (三都水族自治县) in Qiannan Buyi and Miao Autonomous Prefecture (黔南布依族苗族自治州), fell, the sound of camera shutters went off one after another.
Following "Village Super League" ('村超') and "Village Basketball Association" ('村BA'), Guizhou has produced another cultural tourism "dark horse."
"Since we had the 'Village Horse Race,' the county's catering and accommodation businesses have thrived!" He introduced that since the first Guizhou "Village Horse Race" was held in 2024, Sandu County has attracted a cumulative total of 6.22 million tourists, realizing a comprehensive tourism income of 6.1 billion yuan.
The "breakout" path of the "Village Horse Race" hides the ingenuity of rural development in Guizhou. Sandu has a thousand-year-old Shui ethnic Duan Festival (水族端节) horse racing tradition. Representative Yang Kai introduced that the local area did not abandon the original "village" flavor of the event, but integrated new rules and reshaped the event system on the original basis, both retaining the traditional characteristics of Shui horse racing "riding without saddles" and integrating modern event operation concepts, allowing this folk activity to rapidly grow into a cultural tourism "dark horse."
"'Village Horse Race' has become popular, but it is even more important to make the lives of the people prosperous." Representative Yang Kai said that driven by the "Village Horse Race," a new batch of intangible cultural heritage workshops and enterprises have been added locally, developing more than 200 new products such as intangible cultural heritage cultural creations and trendy toys, with sales exceeding 50 million yuan last year alone. Yang Mei (杨妹), a post-90s Shui embroidery girl, not only stayed in her hometown thanks to the orders brought by the "Village Horse Race," but also led the embroidery girls to develop new products that are sold overseas.
"Guizhou's 'Village Horse Race' is not fighting alone." Representative Yang Kai frankly said, "From 'Village Super League,' 'Village Basketball Association' to 'Village Horse Race,' these brands rooted in the countryside are jointly helping the local agricultural, cultural, and tourism industries to accelerate their development. I hope the 'Village Horse Race' will lead the people to a brighter future!"

"If you take a city as the center and draw a radius of 1,000 kilometers, how many people can it cover?"
On the afternoon of March 6, at the panel discussion of the China Democratic League (民盟) group during the Fourth Session of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (全国政协), Yang Yunyan (杨云彦), a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (全国政协) and Deputy Director of the Standing Committee of the Hubei Provincial People's Congress (湖北省人大常委会), posed this question, immediately attracting everyone's attention.
"Drawing this circle in Beijing (北京), Shanghai (上海), or Guangzhou (广州) will cover deserts or oceans due to geographical reasons. However, drawing this circle in Wuhan (武汉) can cover approximately 800 million people," said CPPCC (全国政协) member Yang Yunyan (杨云彦) while gesturing. "This illustrates that the city cluster in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River (长江) has a unique hub position and strategic significance in building a new development pattern."
"This reminds people of the famous 'Hu Line' (胡焕庸线), which reveals the pattern of China's (中国) population distribution," said Deng Changqiu (邓长球), Director of the Guangxi (广西) Water Resources Department and a member of the CPPCC (全国政协), listening attentively and interjecting at the right moment. "Population density is closely related to regional development."
CPPCC (全国政协) member Yang Yunyan (杨云彦) continued the topic, saying that the city cluster in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River (长江) connects the east and the west, the south and the north, and is an important node connecting the Yangtze River Delta (长三角), the Pearl River Delta (珠三角), the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region (京津冀), and the Chengdu-Chongqing region (成渝). "Drawing this 'circle' well can not only support the rise of the central region but also ensure the security of the country's strategic hinterland."
"Drawing this circle well requires collaboration," added Gu Qing (辜清), Vice Chairman of the Jiangxi Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (江西省政协). "The city cluster in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River (长江) involves Hubei (湖北), Hunan (湖南), and Jiangxi (江西), just like our discussion today. We must sit together and 劲往一处使 (jìn wǎng yī chù shǐ - "exert efforts in one direction," to pool efforts; work together towards a common goal)."
"That's right! We need to establish a regular working coordination mechanism and deepen the construction of a regional science and technology community," Yang Yunyan (杨云彦) nodded frequently, adding, "Only when everyone 心往一处想 (xīn wǎng yī chù xiǎng - "hearts think in one direction," to be of one mind; share the same aspirations) can we draw this 'concentric circle' well."

Wang Xiaolong (王小龙) used to work in a Sino-foreign joint venture industrial machine tool company. There, he saw the gap in technology: "Foreign machine tools can run an average of 5,000 hours without failure, while our machine tools used to only run about 2,300 hours."
"What others can do, we can definitely do." This sentence has always spurred Wang Xiaolong (王小龙). After starting his own business, in order to overcome the problem of spindle accuracy, Wang Xiaolong (王小龙) and his team stayed in the workshop for 3 months, set up a sensor network, and simultaneously developed a dynamic compensation algorithm. After countless debugging, verification, failures, and restarts, they finally overcame the problem, increasing the thermal stability of the spindle under complex conditions by 0.001 mm.
"Our machine tools can already compete with the world's top equipment in the field of ultra-precision machining. In recent years, domestic high-end machine tools have been directly used to manufacture large aircraft, aero engines, and other major national equipment." Wang Xiaolong (王小龙) said proudly.

Liu Zheng (刘争) introduced that behind the high-density launch is the leap in manufacturing capabilities, "We jointly developed new process equipment with domestic universities and machine tool factories, and successfully developed China's first special composite processing machine tool for rocket cylinder sections." This equipment uses China's own CNC system to realize the integration of process and equipment, doubling processing efficiency and accuracy, and firmly grasping core technology in our own hands.
"Some technological innovations in China's aerospace have stepped into the 'no man's land', and there are no ready-made roads ahead." Liu Zheng (刘争) said with deep feeling that only independent innovation can win the initiative in international competition.

Science is Actually Very Interesting, and Scientists are Actually Very Cool
Keywords:
Popular Science Work
As a scientist, Xu Xing (徐星), member of the National Committee of the CPPCC and Director of the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (中国科学院古脊椎所所长), has entered campuses many times to tell the story of the dinosaur world. In Xinjiang (新疆), a group of Uyghur children surrounded him, asking one question after another; in Liaoning (辽宁), some children expressed their yearning for scientific careers after listening to his report. This made Xu Xing (徐星) deeply feel the value of popular science work: "Science is actually very interesting, and scientists are actually very cool." Planting a seed of science in the hearts of children may inadvertently change their life trajectory.
During the New Year's Day and Spring Festival holidays this year, Xu Xing's (徐星) footprints were all over many places, continuing his "Popular Science 2026" tour. "Scientific and technological innovation and popular science are the two wings to achieve innovative development." Xu Xing (徐星) said that he will continue to devote himself to popular science work, and expects more scientific and technological workers to devote themselves to science education in primary and secondary schools and contribute to popular science work.

Tibetan Medicine is Ushering in a Highlight Moment
Keywords:
New Development in the Snowy Plateau
Mingji Cuomu (明吉措姆), member of the National Committee of the CPPCC and professor of the Tibetan Medicine Department of Tibet University of Traditional Tibetan Medicine (西藏藏医药大学藏医系教授), was born in the Qiangtang Grassland (羌塘草原) in northern Tibet (西藏), and was assigned to Nie Rong County (聂荣县), Nagqu (那曲) after graduation.
"Because many villages were not accessible by roads at that time, I often rode horses to the countryside to see patients. Many villagers relied on horses to carry them to see a doctor when they were sick, and it took seven or eight hours of bumpy roads to reach the nearest clinic." Mingji Cuomu (明吉措姆) said. Today, the state has increased investment in grassroots public facilities and medical care, and the long and arduous journey to seek medical treatment in the past has been greatly shortened. Most common diseases can be treated in local township health centers in a timely manner. The "group-style" aid to Tibet (援藏) by medical talents has further improved the quality of local medical services. The average life expectancy in Tibet (西藏) has more than doubled, and the right to life and health of farmers and herdsmen has been fundamentally guaranteed.
The cause of Tibetan medicine is also ushering in a highlight moment. Mingji Cuomu (明吉措姆) introduced that Tibet University of Traditional Tibetan Medicine (西藏藏医药大学) has trained more than 10,000 professional talents, and "Tibetan medicine bathing therapy" has been included in the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. "I believe that Tibet's (西藏) tomorrow will be even better, Tashi Delek (扎西德勒)!" Mingji Cuomu (明吉措姆) said with confidence.

"Look, these are the 'Malan' series wheat seeds that Representative Guo Jinkao (郭进考) gave me. Last year, the yield per mu reached more than 830 kilograms, setting a new record for wheat yield per mu in Hebei Province. And look at this, this is what Representative Yang Wuyun (杨武云) gave me. It's a wheat variety from the Sichuan wheat region that is disease-resistant and tolerant to weak light." On March 7, at the residence of the Henan delegation, Ru Zhendong (茹振钢), a National People's Congress representative and professor at the Wheat Research Center of Henan University of Science and Technology, excitedly showed reporters the wheat seeds in his hands.
Two years ago, at the National People's Congress, Ru Zhendong, Guo Jinkao (郭进考), Honorary President of the Shijiazhuang Academy of Agricultural and Forestry Sciences of Hebei Province, and Yang Wuyun (杨武云), Director of the Academic Committee of the Sichuan Academy of Agricultural Sciences, hit it off and made an agreement to work together: to break regional restrictions, share excellent germplasm resources, and breed new, higher-yielding, and better-quality wheat varieties.
Henan wheat varieties are high-yielding, lodging-resistant, and tolerant to strong light, but lack drought and cold resistance; Hebei wheat varieties are drought-resistant, cold-resistant, and have a high ear formation rate, which just makes up for the shortcomings of Henan varieties; Sichuan wheat varieties are disease-resistant and tolerant to weak light, and are suitable for the southern climate—the "strong alliance" of the three regions is like installing "all-round genes" on wheat. By aggregating excellent traits such as low-temperature resistance, high-temperature resistance, drought resistance, disease resistance, and high yield, a batch of new germplasm materials with excellent comprehensive traits has been created, which will be further tested, demonstrated, and promoted to more places. The experts are united in their efforts to make this "two-year agreement" run out of the "acceleration" of collaborative innovation.
"Grasp grain production without relaxation" and "Implement the seed industry revitalization action in depth, and accelerate the selection and promotion of breakthrough varieties" were written into this year's government work report, which made the three representatives feel very excited.
Ru Zhendong (茹振钢) said: "After listening to the government work report, we are even more motivated. We must adhere to the bottom line of independent control of seed sources, promote the deep integration of industry, academia, and research, and make technological innovation truly become the engine for increasing grain production and improving quality." Guo Jinkao (郭进考) said: "There are many agricultural experts among the deputies and members of the CPPCC. This time, bringing seeds to the meeting is to hope to have more exchanges and cooperation with everyone to cultivate more new wheat varieties and firmly hold the Chinese people's rice bowl in our own hands." Yang Wuyun (杨武云) suggested that it is necessary to promote agricultural scientific and technological achievements from papers and patents to fields and tables, and build a "ballast stone" for national food security.
The Awakening of Insects has passed, and vegetation is sprouting, which is the time for wheat to return to green and jointing. The three experts used a seed, a commitment, and a collaboration to put "storing grain in the land and storing grain in technology" into practice, allowing technological power to run through all aspects from breeding to the table.

"Which of the committee members here just returned from the Milan Winter Olympics?"
On the afternoon of March 5th, during a group discussion in the sports sector of the Fourth Session of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), Zhou Jinqiang (周进强), the convener of the group, CPPCC National Committee member, and Vice President of the Chinese Olympic Committee, asked a question that instantly enlivened the entire venue.
"It wouldn't be surprising who wins a gold medal!" Ji Dong (纪冬), CPPCC National Committee member and head coach of the National Freestyle Ski Aerials Team, introduced the experience of enhancing the competitiveness of the project in the discussion, pointing out several key points: scientific summary, thorough understanding of the rules, and gathering wisdom.
One committee member asked, "Did you expect Xu Mengtao (徐梦桃) to win that gold medal?"
Ji Dong smiled, with a hint of pride and a bit of emotion in that smile: "Winning gold was expected, but to be honest - her final jump really exceeded my expectations, and the score was even higher than at the Beijing Winter Olympics!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Hong (张虹), a CPPCC National Committee member, took over. This first Chinese Winter Olympic speed skating gold medalist, now the director of the Olympic Research Center of Harbin Institute of Technology (哈尔滨工业大学), could not hide her pride in her tone: "I presented the award to Su Yiming (苏翊鸣)!"
She leaned forward: "From the arena to the university, I feel that the construction of a strong sports nation is forming a historical intersection with the construction of a strong education nation, a strong science and technology nation, and a strong talent nation. I hope that this year's CPPCC work can further deepen the focus on the integration of sports and education, such as opening up the training channels between athletes and universities, so that more outstanding sports talents can not only win glory for the country on the field, but also tell Chinese stories well on the international sports stage!"
Yang Yang (杨扬), a CPPCC National Committee member, nodded frequently. As China's first Winter Olympic champion and Vice President of the World Anti-Doping Agency, she has served in international sports organizations for many years and hopes that the 2026 CPPCC work will increase its attention to promoting the high-quality development of ice and snow sports, "jointly building a full-chain training system for young people from popularization to improvement, vigorously promoting ice and snow sports into schools, and allowing more young people to get in touch with ice and snow and fall in love with ice and snow."
In the group discussion, everyone spoke enthusiastically. From the Milan Winter Olympics arena to the group meeting venue of the National People's Congress and the CPPCC; from the stories behind the medals to the suggestions about the future - the topics of the committee members did not leave ice and snow, nor did they leave "how to make ice and snow sports better."
Return to Top"Mass sports and competitive sports cannot be viewed separately; building a strong sporting nation must start from the grassroots." Horace Fok (霍启剛), a deputy to the National People's Congress and a member of the Legislative Council of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (香港特别行政区), said that many sports events are facing transformation, such as how to expand sports consumption, how to increase public participation, and how to integrate sports with entertainment and tourism.
Horace Fok (霍启剛) stated that in the future, it is necessary to consider how to make sports more popular among young people, understand the problems faced by ordinary people and grassroots coaches, and how to get more people involved in and pay attention to national fitness, etc.

Building an enterprise service platform to broaden the development space for enterprises. Sci-Tech City continues to build display platforms and "going out" bridges for enterprises, enhance product exposure and exhibition effectiveness, and help enterprises connect with domestic and foreign cooperation resources. At the same time, it creates scenario carriers such as the "Brain-Computer Science Innovation Demonstration Center" (脑机科学创新示范中心) and the "Lingjing Future Vision" (灵境未来视界), collaboratively releases 79 urban opportunity scenarios, and implements application scenarios such as the province's longest autonomous driving bus line and the Nanhu (南湖) low-altitude flight test site, broadening the application range of AI technology.
Strengthening Element Guarantee Escorting Enterprises to Dare to Venture and Try
Sci-Tech City focuses on the difficulties and pain points of artificial intelligence enterprise development, optimizes the business environment, improves the guarantee system, and escorts enterprises' innovative development.
Solving the financing difficulties of enterprises and strengthening the support of financial elements. In response to the problems of high investment, high risk, and difficulty in financing in the achievement transformation stage of science and technology-based small and medium-sized enterprises, Sci-Tech City deepens the collaborative reform of "government-bank-insurance-guarantee." In 2025, it helped 92 enterprises finance more than 10 billion yuan; the first achievement transformation insurance in the field of artificial intelligence in Zhejiang Province (浙江省) was implemented to share the research and development risks of enterprises. As of now, Sci-Tech City has cumulatively issued 17 intellectual property securitization products, benefiting 179 enterprises, leveraging a total financing amount of more than 1.692 billion yuan, with the number of issuances and scale ranking first in Zhejiang Province (浙江省).
Optimizing business service measures to create a good development atmosphere. Sci-Tech City adheres to the service concept of "I am responsible for sunshine and rain, and you are responsible for thriving," practices "no disturbance without incident, response to every request," and carries out special "Accompaniment Action" (伴飞行动) services. In 2025, it visited more than 2,700 enterprises and coordinated the resolution of more than 600 demands. In 2025, it held more than 200 various activities such as the Global Artificial Intelligence Technology Conference (全球人工智能技术大会), creating a strong innovation atmosphere. Taking the construction of a clean development zone (park) as the starting point, it implemented the "three lists" of "pro-clean" services, optimized the pro-clean government-business relationship, and activated the development of "clean power."
2026 is the opening year of the "15th Five-Year Plan." Sci-Tech City will continue to promote the work of striving to create a national-level high-tech zone, grasp the key variable of artificial intelligence, seize the new high ground of future industrial competition, upgrade "sunshine and rain" services, and contribute more Sci-Tech City strength to Hangzhou's (杭州) construction of the "First National City for Artificial Intelligence Innovation and Development."

In March, the spring breeze caresses the face, and the demeanor of women is moving.
As deputies and members gather in Beijing (北京) to discuss national affairs at this solemn moment, we welcome International Women's Day. Both inside and outside the meetings, the moving figures of female deputies and members can be seen everywhere. Splashing through the waves in the swimming pool, National People's Congress Deputy Zhang Yufei (张雨霏) won 10 Olympic medals, allowing the five-star red flag to fly high in the arena. Strolling through the Milky Way in the universe, National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference member Wang Yaping (王亚平) engraved the footprints of Chinese women in the vast space. Braving the wind and waves on the ocean, National People's Congress Deputy Zhu Yuemeng (朱悦萌) steadfastly guards the vast sea frontier with her youthful self. They possess both the ardent dedication to pursue their dreams and the delicate strength to warm people's hearts.
How beautiful and heroic! Every shining "she" is a vivid microcosm of the new era's Chinese women. Today, women account for more than half of the students in higher education, and female science and technology workers account for more than 45% of the total number of science and technology workers. Women's wisdom and dedication can be found in cutting-edge fields such as domestically produced large aircraft, biomedicine, and artificial intelligence. The vast number of women have simultaneously stepped into a comprehensive well-off society. Sisters in formerly deeply impoverished areas now live in affordable housing, drink clean water, and use broadband internet, and their lives are becoming more and more promising.
The strength of the protection of women's rights and interests demonstrates the civilization's temperature of the country. In recent years, from the revision of the Law on the Protection of Women's Rights and Interests to the rectification of gender discrimination in employment, from the continuous improvement of the fertility support policy system to the accelerated expansion of inclusive childcare services, an increasingly dense security network allows women to pursue their dreams with more confidence and steadier steps.
At the Two Sessions venue, topics related to women are also "hot and fiery." Many deputies and members are offering suggestions and advice for women's career development, fertility support, and physical and mental health. Developing inclusive childcare and integrated childcare services, protecting the legitimate rights and interests of women and children... In this year's government work report, practical measures respond to expectations, conveying the temperature of people's livelihood between the lines, and outlining a clear coordinate for the development of women's cause. The country is working hard, and society is progressing. This mutual effort makes the development space for women unprecedentedly broad, and also illuminates a warm atmosphere of the whole society respecting, caring for, and supporting the development of women's cause.
The progress of the times has never been separated from the power of women; the growth of women has always resonated with the development of the country. It is believed that hundreds of millions of women will surely write more brilliant chapters in the construction of Chinese-style modernization with a more calm attitude and more full enthusiasm. On this festival belonging to them, let us praise the "her power" and cheer for the women's responsibility.

Dressed in an Yi embroidery dress and wearing an exquisitely decorated Yi ethnic silver hat... Jin Ruirui (金瑞瑞), a delegate and president of the Yi Embroidery Association of Mouding County (牟定县), Chuxiong Yi Autonomous Prefecture (楚雄彝族自治州), Yunnan Province (云南省) (pictured), was particularly eye-catching in front of the Great Hall of the People (人民大会堂).
"Traditional Yi embroidery mainly uses red, yellow, and black, but we boldly chose dark green fabric and embroidered the patterns in light green gradients, which looks more textured." This is the fourth time Jin Ruirui has walked into the Great Hall of the People (人民大会堂) wearing Yi embroidery clothing of her own design.
Jin Ruirui's (金瑞瑞) affinity for Yi embroidery has been ingrained in her since she was a child. From the age of 11, she learned traditional techniques such as piled embroidery and flat embroidery from her mother. "Why can't good things sell for a good price?" Feeling uneasy, Jin Ruirui (金瑞瑞) resolutely returned to her hometown after graduating from university, determined to forge a new path for Yi embroidery.
The road to entrepreneurship was not smooth. Initially, the silver jewelry and handbags designed by Jin Ruirui (金瑞瑞) were left unattended in the store; sometimes, after finally waiting for an order, the production capacity could not keep up. "At that time, our embroiderers' skills were stuck in the old ways, and production was still in small workshops," she said.
Jin Ruirui (金瑞瑞), after much painful consideration, prescribed a remedy—order-based training. "What the market needs is what we teach. The standardized assembly line formed in this way allows us to 'eat' more orders." Jin Ruirui (金瑞瑞) said that traditional Yi embroidery has seized the opportunities of the modern market.
Yi embroidery must not only go out of the mountains but also go overseas. In September 2023, Jin Ruirui (金瑞瑞) took Yi embroidery clothing to Milan Fashion Week, becoming the focus of attention. "Seeing everyone give me a thumbs up, I felt particularly confident that what is national is global." Jin Ruirui (金瑞瑞) was very accurate; not long after, 6,500 sets of foreign orders came knocking on her door.
Today, Jin Ruirui's (金瑞瑞) team is constantly growing, driving the employment of more than 2,000 Yi women, and the embroiderers can earn 20,000 to 50,000 yuan per year.
This year's National People's Congress (全国两会), Jin Ruirui (金瑞瑞) came with the expectations of the embroiderers, hoping to let the craftsmanship in the deep mountains be seen by more people.
Speaking, Jin Ruirui (金瑞瑞) picked up a handbag on the table, with delicate Yi embroidery pieces sewn on the blue and white Dali tie-dye, "This is a collaboration with Dali tie-dye." There is a light in Jin Ruirui's (金瑞瑞) eyes, "I want to spend my whole life integrating the cultures of different ethnic groups on this piece of fabric, embroidering new expressions of traditional techniques, and embroidering a good life for my fellow villagers."

Inside a robot data factory, dozens of experimental platforms are set up where data collectors operate various robotic arms to gather data... Not long ago, Zhao Xiaoguang (赵晓光), a researcher at the Institute of Automation of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (中国科学院自动化研究所) and a member of the CPPCC (中国人民政治协商会议), (see figure) investigated several companies. How can we obtain higher quality training data for robots? How can we make robots more "intelligent"? She noted down new thoughts in her notebook.
Zhao Xiaoguang has long been engaged in theoretical research and engineering practice in the fields of intelligent robots and artificial intelligence. How to enable artificial intelligence to empower various industries is a problem she focuses on.
"Besides dancing, what else can humanoid robots do?" "When will robots be able to enter homes and help take care of the elderly?" When giving popular science lectures, Zhao Xiaoguang is often asked these questions. In her opinion, this reflects everyone's expectations for artificial intelligence and also puts forward higher requirements for science and technology workers.
Service robots for assisting the elderly and disabled, intelligent disinfection robots... Deeply involved in scientific research, Zhao Xiaoguang led her team to develop a number of intelligent robots, which are being piloted in different scenarios such as hospitals and nursing homes. "I believe that with the support of policies and the traction of market demand, the uses of humanoid robots will become wider and wider in the future, which also requires us to strengthen basic research and improve the efficiency of成果转化 (chéng guǒ zhuǎn huà - "achievement transformation," the process of converting research findings into practical applications)." she said.
Technological innovation relies on talent, and talent cultivation relies on education. In 2025, Zhao Xiaoguang also visited primary and secondary schools in many places, introducing knowledge such as large model training and artificial neural networks to students in a simple and easy-to-understand way by explaining the working principles and development process of bionic robotic fish.
"After the lectures, students often ask me, where should I start if I want to learn more about artificial intelligence knowledge?" In response to the needs learned in the survey, Zhao Xiaoguang and her team also developed a series of courses and teaching aids, hoping to ignite the scientific dreams of more children.
From laboratories to enterprises, from campuses to communities, Zhao Xiaoguang said, "Communicating with scholars and business leaders makes me more aware of the needs of the industry frontline; carrying out popular science activities makes me more aware of what the audience cares about and needs. In the future, I hope to drive more people to understand artificial intelligence through popular science, and to better serve our beautiful lives through scientific research."

"Seeing the Liaoning aircraft carrier (辽宁舰) for the first time, the shock was very direct—you have to look up at it on the dock." Recalling the scene when she first saw the Liaoning aircraft carrier (辽宁舰), Zhu Yuemeng (朱悦萌), a representative from a naval unit (pictured), had a sparkle in her eyes.
"Every crew member should remember the feeling of seeing the aircraft carrier for the first time. At that moment, a seed of dream will be buried in the heart," said Zhu Yuemeng (朱悦萌). "In the days to come, when you encounter difficulties, take out the seed, water it, and let it continue to grow."
While studying at military school, Zhu Yuemeng's (朱悦萌) dream was to board a warship and go to the deep blue sea. In the year of graduation, she was selected to join China's first aircraft carrier, the Liaoning (辽宁舰). Stepping out of the school gate and into the watertight door, everything was full of unknowns.
In the first month on the ship, she felt a little confused: "Every day, the work is equipment maintenance, grinding and rust removal, and inspecting parts. The knowledge learned in school seems to be useless for a while." An old squad leader saw her thoughts and said to her: "Everyone does the small things in front of them well, so that they can jointly achieve great undertakings."
It was that experience that cultivated Zhu Yuemeng's (朱悦萌) love and respect for equipment, making her a true crew member.
Over the years, Zhu Yuemeng (朱悦萌) and her comrades have personally experienced the glorious journey of the Chinese aircraft carrier advancing into the deep blue and achieving leapfrog development to strengthen the military. The most unforgettable thing was the day when the Liaoning aircraft carrier's (辽宁舰) carrier-based fighter jets achieved full-capacity stationing on the ship. She broadcast on the command terminal: "The plane successfully landed on the ship, and we are fully staffed!"
Zhu Yuemeng (朱悦萌) and several veteran soldiers stood on the deck, the planes were all parked, and they counted them one by one from beginning to end: "At that moment, we witnessed history. Many old squad leaders cried, and everyone was proud of the cause they were fighting for."
In 2025, the Liaoning (辽宁舰) and Shandong (山东舰) aircraft carriers formed a dual-aircraft carrier formation and went to the far sea to carry out actual combat training. Zhu Yuemeng (朱悦萌), as a member of the formation, participated in the mission. "The difficulty of the dual-aircraft carrier formation is not only to do their respective jobs well, but how the two formations cooperate and how the airspace is allocated." In the end, the mission was successfully completed.
Zhu Yuemeng (朱悦萌) has been fighting in the aircraft carrier force for 11 years, and her original intention has never changed. At this year's National People's Congress (全国两会), she combined her daily work and brought her suggestions to the venue, hoping to contribute more to strengthening the military and revitalizing the army.
"Integrating youth into the cause of strengthening the military is a very happy thing." Zhu Yuemeng (朱悦萌) said that in the future, she wants to accompany the warship to sail to farther seas and deeper blue.
Return to TopIn my work practice and research, I have found that the supply of inclusive childcare services is insufficient, and maternity leave and other birth-related leaves are not fully implemented in some areas. I suggest focusing on key aspects such as childbirth and parenting, and promoting the construction of a birth-friendly society through cultural immersion, policy support, and service guarantees. Strengthen support measures for housing and employment, increase the effective supply of affordable housing through multiple channels, strengthen the protection of workers' rights and interests, and create a family-friendly working environment; increase the supply of inclusive childcare services and improve support policies for inclusive childcare.

Currently, changes in population and social structure pose new challenges to education. I suggest improving the allocation mechanism of educational resources. Establish a population monitoring and early warning platform for all academic stages, integrate multi-source data from education, health, and other sources, and accurately portray the demand for academic places. In terms of teachers, I suggest improving the teacher training support system and enhancing teachers' interdisciplinary and cross-stage teaching skills.

In recent years, China's basic public health services have been continuously improved, and more and more high-quality medical resources have been sinking to the county and township levels. To enable patients to travel less, spend less money, and receive effective treatment, it is necessary to enhance the specialist capabilities of primary healthcare institutions and solve the problem of uneven distribution of medical resources in various regions. I suggest implementing a talent strategy of "strengthening the foundation—improving quality—retaining people," and building a medical information sharing system covering the city, county, and township levels, so that the common people can see experts from major hospitals at their doorstep.
——Li Longti (李龙倜), Representative (Vice President of Taihe Hospital, Shiyan City, Hubei Province (湖北省十堰市太和医院))
As a network writer, screenwriter, and member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, my suggestions involve multiple fields, including people's livelihood, women and children's rights, and cultural development. I often receive letters from many female readers or netizens who tell me about their expectations. As a woman myself, I hope to make the lives of my female compatriots better. I will continue to care about everyone's living conditions and ensure that women's rights are better protected.

Return to TopIn today's accelerating digital economy, Zigong City (自贡市), Sichuan Province (四川省), an old industrial city, has started with data annotation to find breakthroughs and form new advantages in the new "data" and "intelligence" track. It has taken this key basic link into its own hands, consolidating the data foundation while laying out new business forms such as artificial intelligence, and extending to the high end of the industrial chain.
Foundation: Strengthening Support with Data
Artificial intelligence cannot be separated from high-quality data support. Without annotation, there is no reliable model. Zigong City uses data annotation as a "small incision" to promote the realization of a "0 to 1" breakthrough in the artificial intelligence industry.
In June 2023, Baidu Apollo Zhisheng (Southwest) Artificial Intelligence Basic Data Industry Base (百度阿波罗智行（西南）人工智能基础数据产业基地) landed, taking only 36 days from signing to production. Subsequently, Tencent Cloud (Zigong) Digital Economy Industry Base (腾讯云（自贡）数字经济产业基地) landed, and the driving effect of leading enterprises continued to appear.
In a 9-story building on the banks of the Fuxi River (釜溪河) in Zigong City (自贡市), more than 1,700 data annotators are focused on processing image, voice, text, and video data. Two years ago, this was still a vacant building, but now its annual output value has exceeded 100 million yuan and is known as the "100 Million Yuan Building (亿元楼)." At present, Zigong (自贡) has gathered more than 50 data annotation enterprises, driving employment of more than 5,000 people, and successfully entered the first batch of data annotation base construction lists in Sichuan Province (四川省). There are 22 artificial intelligence-related enterprises above designated size, 26 "four-above" enterprises, and the industrial revenue is steadily increasing.
From the industrial development, we can feel the strength of Zigong's (自贡) "digital intelligence" drive: Since 2025, Zigong (自贡) has promoted the "intelligent transformation and digital transformation" of manufacturing, guiding qualified enterprises to build 5G factories and digital workshops, and apply industrial robots, CNC machine tools, intelligent testing and other equipment.
Synergy: Using Projects to Attract Momentum
On the basis of gradually consolidating the data base, Zigong (自贡) is accelerating the construction of an "one district three parks" industrial pattern around unmanned vehicles, unmanned aerial vehicles, robots, smart medical care and other directions.
Since 2025, 29 projects in the field of artificial intelligence and low-altitude economy have been signed and implemented, with a total investment of 13.02 billion yuan. The Sichuan Humanoid Robot Multimodal Data Acquisition and Testing Center (四川人形机器人多模态数据采集测试中心) has been built and put into use, and the humanoid robot assembly and production base project is accelerating. Jiushi Intelligent Unmanned Vehicle (九识智能无人车) has achieved mass delivery, with a vehicle-mounted mass of 1,800 kg and a range of 130 km, and has been put into application in logistics, security, medical distribution and other scenarios, with a cumulative driving consumption of more than 30 million yuan. Volant's (沃兰特) ton-level eVTOL has completed key flight tests.
At present, 1 out of every 3 large fixed-wing drones in the country is "Made in Zigong (自贡)." In Zigong (自贡), there are 38 open test routes for unmanned vehicles and 1,303 kilometers of road rights, and application scenarios are constantly expanding. Project landing, chain extension, and terminal application are promoted simultaneously, and industrial momentum is gradually released.
At present, Zigong (自贡) has been successfully included in the coordinated development area of the artificial intelligence industry chain in Sichuan Province (四川省), and has been approved as the first batch of artificial intelligence innovation and development pilot zones in Sichuan Province (四川省), the provincial intelligent unmanned aerial vehicle innovation industrial cluster and the first batch of provincial data annotation bases. The "Chengdu-Deyang-Mianyang-Zigong-Liangshan Aerospace Cluster (成德绵自凉航空航天集群)" was selected as a national advanced manufacturing cluster, and Zigong's (自贡) characteristic artificial intelligence industry system has taken shape.
Empowerment: Let Scenarios Promote Integration
The value of artificial intelligence is ultimately reflected in its application.
In the industrial field, in 2025, 446 enterprises above designated size in Zigong City (自贡市) implemented "intelligent transformation and digital transformation," and application scenarios such as industrial brain, machine vision, and remote equipment monitoring accelerated their landing, and production efficiency and stability were improved simultaneously.
In the field of cultural tourism, the "Digital Lantern City (数字灯城)" platform was launched, and smart guides and immersive interactive experiences became new highlights, promoting the digital upgrade of lantern culture.
In the medical field, Zigong City (自贡市) has built 10 smart hospitals, and many hospitals have completed the localization deployment of large models to assist in the automatic generation of outpatient documents and other functions; 26 unmanned aerial vehicle medical material transportation routes have been opened to improve emergency distribution efficiency.
In the field of social governance, the integrated combat platform for police aircraft and the low-altitude meteorological business platform have been put into use, unmanned vehicles participate in express logistics, environmental sanitation and security patrols, and new technologies are embedded in the urban operation system.
At present, the city has cumulatively opened 55 artificial intelligence application scenarios, and technical achievements have come out of the laboratory and are deeply integrated into workshops, hospitals, blocks and communities.
Results: See the Effectiveness of the Ecosystem
Industrial development depends not only on scale, but also on ecology. Zigong (自贡) has issued special support policies for artificial intelligence to improve the supporting system in terms of computing power resources, scenario opening, enterprise cultivation, and talent security.
The city has gathered more than 180 national and provincial innovation platforms, 211 high-tech enterprises, and 539 science and technology SMEs. Twelve data annotation enterprises have been upgraded to the scale and included in the statistics, with a cumulative output value of 470 million yuan. Zigong (自贡) organized enterprises to participate in more than 30 college job fairs, and cumulatively helped enterprises recruit more than 2,500 people; as of February 2026, more than 76 million yuan of industrial support funds for data annotation enterprises have been cashed out, and more than 200 sets of talent apartments have been provided to strengthen element security.
From the sound of keyboards rising and falling in the data annotation base to the stable operation of unmanned vehicles in the park; from the brightly lit robot debugging workshop to the smooth launch of the smart hospital system... One specific measure and one landing result outline a beautiful picture of Zigong (自贡), an old industrial city, accelerating its progress on the new track of "data" and "intelligence."

On March 5th, the draft of the Ecological Environment Code was submitted for deliberation at the fourth session of the 14th National People's Congress (全国人民代表大会). This is the second law in China named a "Code" after the Civil Code, and it has attracted high attention from society.
On March 7th, the Political and Cultural Department and the New Media Center of the People's Daily (人民日报) launched an animated short video, "When Nezha Meets the Ecological Environment Code," transforming the traditional mythological figure Nezha (哪吒) into a "small ecological law enforcement guard," embedding legal provisions into lively story scenes.
Explaining Legal Provisions with Animation
On Cui Ping Mountain (翠屏山), Prime Minister Turtle is driving an illegally modified "mount" for a live broadcast; outside Chentang Pass (陈塘关), Shen Gongbao's (申公豹) construction site is causing noise pollution; the report issued by King Golden Horn (金角大王) has suspicious elements... The product uses three interesting stories experienced by Nezha to introduce the highlights of the draft Ecological Environment Code.
"When Nezha Meets the Ecological Environment Code" explores the legal provisions in the draft that are closely related to people's lives. By embedding case scenarios, it explains the law through cases, telling the story of the rule of law safeguarding the people's beautiful life, allowing the audience to feel the vivid practice of building a beautiful China.
Inviting Nezha to Promote the Rule of Law
The classic IP image of Nezha has been helping to promote the rule of law for as early as 9 years ago. The "One Book Politics and Economics" studio of the People's Daily (人民日报社) successively launched the animated short films "When the General Principles of Civil Law Meet Nezha" and "When Nezha Meets the Civil Code" during the National People's Congress (全国两会) in 2017 and 2020, respectively, which received enthusiastic social response and were selected as legal popularization materials by many units and schools.
Six years later, as China's second code is submitted for deliberation, the main creative team has once again brought back the Nezha brand IP to deeply cultivate legal publicity.
From 2017 to 2026, Nezha's image has changed, but China's original intention to promote the rule of law has not changed. The "re-encounter" allows people to naturally accept the core spirit of the code while watching "old friends tell new stories." This is a vivid practice of innovative expression and communication of legislative interpretation, and it is also a "two-way rush" between the power of the rule of law and cultural symbols.
Praised and Appreciated by Netizens
After "When Nezha Meets the Ecological Environment Code" was launched, it was jointly promoted on multiple platforms such as the People's Daily client (人民日报客户端), the People's Daily official Weibo (人民日报法人微博), the People's Daily WeChat video account (人民日报微信视频号), the People's Daily Kuaishou account (人民日报快手号), the People's Daily Bilibili account (人民日报哔哩哔哩号), the People's Net+ client (人民网+客户端), and the People's Net WeChat official account (人民网微信公众号).
The product has been reprinted by many media outlets and launched on online audio-visual platforms such as Mango TV (芒果TV), iQiyi (爱奇艺), Youku (优酷), Tencent Video (腾讯视频), and Migu Video (咪咕视频), as well as the "National People's Congress" special zone of cable TV, IPTV, and Internet TV integrated platforms.
What do netizens think? On the People's Daily client (人民日报客户端), a Fujian (福建) netizen commented: "The Fire-tipped Spear, Universe Ring, and Red Armillary Sash are specially used to capture demons and monsters, and the Ecological Environment Code adds an environmental protection weapon to Nezha." A Zhejiang (浙江) netizen commented: "Three heads and six arms are not only used to subdue demons and eliminate demons, but also to protect the legal bottom line of green mountains and clear waters." A Jiangsu (江苏) reader commented: "The promotional video is very creative, and ecological and environmental protection knowledge has entered my brain so vividly!"

The government work report this year proposed to "cultivate and strengthen emerging industries and future industries" and "encourage central enterprises and state-owned enterprises to take the lead in opening up application scenarios." The draft outline of the "15th Five-Year Plan" proposes to "accelerate the construction of application scenarios and ecological systems."
The concept of "scenario," which originated in the film and television field, has been introduced into the fields of economy, society, and technology in recent years. It can be understood as a specific situation for systematically verifying the industrial application effects of new technologies, new products, and new business forms, and has become a key innovation resource. It is also a hot topic at this year's National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (两会). How can "scenarios" better empower innovation, connect technology and industry, and connect research and development with the market? Deputies and members of the CPPCC National Committee actively offered suggestions.
Helping New Technologies Emerge from the Laboratory
Automatically identifying container numbers, automatically inspecting empty containers in and out, automatically alarming when abnormalities are detected... At the "ten million TEU" Ningbo Meidong Container Terminal (浙江宁波梅东集装箱码头) in Zhejiang (浙江), Unitree Robotics' quadruped robot dogs skillfully perform empty container inspection tasks, reducing the inspection time per container to about 2 minutes and achieving a foreign object detection rate of 95%. In recent years, Zhejiang Province (浙江省) has planned a series of iconic and high-value scenarios around 22 fields such as the digital economy, artificial intelligence, and clean energy, and has vigorously promoted scenario cultivation, opening, and application.
"We must vigorously build a product research and development system driven by demand, driven by scenarios, and coordinated by upstream and downstream, and give money and land, but also give scenarios." Luo Yunfeng (罗云峰), a deputy to the National People's Congress (全国人大代表) and director of the Economic Committee of the Anhui Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (安徽省政协经济委员会主任), said that in addition to reducing corporate land costs and improving policy rewards, it is also necessary to build innovative scenarios and build a bridge between research and development and application.
"Scenario innovation finds technology for the market and finds the market for technology." Liu Qing (刘庆), a deputy to the National People's Congress (全国人大代表) and director of the Yangtze River Delta National Technology Innovation Center (长三角国家技术创新中心主任), suggested promoting the formation of a path of "technological breakthrough - scenario verification - industrial application - system upgrade," promoting the fair and efficient allocation of scenario resources, and paving the way for the large-scale application of new technologies.
Allowing New Products to Accept Market Testing
Not long ago, the quantum cloud intelligent seal developed by Anhui Yunxi Quantum Technology Co., Ltd. (安徽云玺量子科技有限公司) helped a local multinational company realize a management model of "decentralized storage of seals and centralized control of approval rights," effectively resolving the contradiction between "security and efficiency."
Tong Yingwei (童迎伟), chairman of the company, introduced that the Hefei (合肥) Municipal Government included the relevant approval project for the administrative use of quantum cloud intelligent seals in the first batch of scenario lists of key industrial chains, and jointly held multiple scenario supply and demand docking meetings with Hefei Market Scenario Application Innovation Promotion Center Co., Ltd. (合肥市场景应用创新促进中心有限公司) to help the company sign trial agreements with more than 10 state-owned enterprises under the city.
"The demand for security and efficiency in the digital transformation of government and enterprises is increasing day by day. The company must continuously optimize product services based on application feedback and market verification to achieve precise docking." Lou Xiangping (楼向平), a deputy to the National People's Congress (全国人大代表), secretary of the Party Committee, chairman, and general manager of China Mobile Shanghai Company (中国移动上海公司党委书记、董事长、总经理), suggested creating benchmark-leading scenarios for public areas such as government affairs, energy, and industrial Internet, and cultivating large-scale promotion-level scenarios in people's livelihood areas such as intelligent connected vehicles, smart healthcare, and personal privacy protection.
Promoting Open Exchange of New Business Forms
In Nansha District (南沙区), Guangzhou (广州) City, Guangdong Province (广东省), WeRide's fully unmanned autonomous taxis travel smoothly on the streets, and citizens can experience them by opening mobile phone software. This is due to the fact that Nansha District (南沙区) has opened up test roads with a one-way mileage of nearly 900 kilometers as a "training ground," covering a variety of complex scenarios such as urban roads, high-speed roads, and urban villages, allowing autonomous driving companies to accumulate technical data in real scenarios.
"Scenario innovation promotes emerging business forms to experience the 'technical barrier' and the 'governance barrier.'" Feng Xingya (冯兴亚), a deputy to the National People's Congress (全国人大代表), secretary of the Party Committee and chairman of GAC Group (广汽集团党委书记、董事长), believes that Guangzhou's innovative provision of high-quality scenario services not only provides a technical verification environment for the industrial end, but also provides case basis for the formulation of relevant laws and regulations, laying a good foundation for further shaping a healthy ecosystem for future industries.
Industry insiders believe that there are still some blockages and bottlenecks in scenario construction and application opening in many places. For example, some research institutions and technology companies have advanced technologies in their hands, but lack accurate insight into market demand; individual regions and departments regard high-value application scenarios as "exclusive assets" of their own regions and systems, and their willingness to open up to the market is not strong enough. We must maintain an open attitude towards new things and new industries, strengthen exchanges and sharing, and provide a better growth environment for the development of future industries.
Return to TopAs one of the 12 national joint-stock commercial banks, Hengfeng Bank focuses on its primary responsibilities and business, continuously improving the quality and efficiency of serving the real economy.

"Women are important creators, drivers, and inheritors of human civilization." In his keynote speech at the opening ceremony of the Global Women's Summit, President Xi Jinping (习近平) profoundly elucidated the important role of women in the development of human civilization, systematically outlined the era's blueprint for accelerating the new process of women's comprehensive development, and injected strong ideological impetus into the progress of the global women's cause. The "Suggestions" of the Fourth Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China made strategic deployments for further safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of women and promoting gender equality and women's comprehensive development. We must deeply study and implement President Xi Jinping's (习近平) important expositions, implement the decision-making deployments of the Party Central Committee, promote the high-quality development of the women's cause under the broad vision of building a community with a shared future for mankind, and join hands with countries around the world to jointly create a better future for mankind.
Accelerating the new process of women's comprehensive development is an inherent requirement for building a community with a shared future for mankind.
President Xi Jinping (习近平) pointed out in his keynote speech at the opening ceremony of the Global Women's Summit: "The fate of women around the world is intertwined." This important concept, from the strategic height of building a community with a shared future for mankind, profoundly reveals the essential connection and mutual causality between the comprehensive development of women and the overall well-being of mankind. We must understand this logic from the height of the evolution of human civilization, the dimension of building a community with a shared future for mankind, and the direction of Chinese-style modernization, analyze it from the perspectives of value core, the laws of civilization evolution, and practical effectiveness, and better grasp the inevitability of accelerating the new process of women's comprehensive development in the grand history of civilization change and structural transformation.
From the perspective of value core, the comprehensive development of women is inherently consistent with the principle of fairness and justice pursued by the building of a community with a shared future for mankind. President Xi Jinping (习近平) pointed out: "The pursuit of gender equality has become a universal consensus in the international community and has been incorporated into the United Nations' various development agendas and key areas of development goals." The lasting stability of a community with a shared future for mankind depends on the universal recognition and implementation of the common values of peace, development, fairness, justice, democracy, and freedom for all mankind. Gender equality, as the most basic and widespread form of social equality, directly measures the height of social civilization. Promoting women's enjoyment of equal rights and opportunities in all aspects helps to consolidate the value foundation of a community with a shared future for mankind. China's establishment of gender equality as a basic national policy and its integration into the entire process of national governance is a institutionalized expression of this value consciousness, providing a demonstration for promoting gender equality and consolidating the value foundation of a community with a shared future for mankind on a global scale.
From the perspective of the laws of civilization evolution, women's development has always resonated with the transformation of human civilization forms. President Xi Jinping (习近平) emphasized: "Every step in the development of the women's cause has promoted the progress of human civilization" "The development of the world needs to enter a more equal, inclusive, and sustainable track, and the women's cause is an important yardstick for measuring it." The development process of women follows the dialectic of historical development. From the dominant position of matriarchal clans to the gender division of labor and social structure dominated by men due to the limitations of productivity since patriarchal society, and then to the new historical situation opened up by the digital and intelligent era for the equal development of both sexes, the evolution of women's status profoundly reflects the dialectical movement of productivity and production relations. The traditional globalization model centered on capital since modern times has not automatically brought about gender equality, but has often been intertwined with patriarchal structures, creating new inequalities. This further highlights the people-centered and inclusive values of the new type of civilization with the "community with a shared future for mankind" as the form of realization, which has a natural affinity with the demands of women's liberation. Therefore, accelerating the comprehensive development of women is an inherent requirement for civilization to leap to a higher form.
From the perspective of practical effectiveness, women are an indispensable key force in addressing global challenges and achieving sustainable development. President Xi Jinping (习近平) pointed out: "In the 21st century today, creating a better life is inseparable from the comprehensive progress of the women's cause, and also requires the vast number of women to contribute greater wisdom and strength." Women play an indispensable role in maintaining social stability, promoting social harmony, and promoting economic development. Ensuring that women have equal access to resources, education, and employment opportunities helps to break the intergenerational transmission of poverty, stimulate social innovation vitality, and promote inclusive growth. Women have contributed valuable wisdom and strength in maintaining global peace and security and addressing issues such as climate change, public health crises, and humanitarian disasters. Practice has fully proved that empowering the women's cause is to inject a source of living water into global governance and development; promoting the comprehensive development of women is to inject a powerful force of women into creating a better future for mankind.
The development of the times creates positive conditions for promoting the comprehensive development of women.
President Xi Jinping (习近平) profoundly pointed out: "The cause of pursuing gender equality is great. Looking at history, without women's liberation and progress, there would be no human liberation and progress." The development of human civilization has always been synchronized with the changes in productivity and production relations. In this broad process, women's liberation and development are an important force in promoting social progress. At present, a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation represented by artificial intelligence is promoting profound changes in human society. Chinese-style modernization, as a practical exploration of a new form of human civilization, has the distinct characteristics of a huge population size, common prosperity for all people, coordination between material and spiritual civilization, harmonious coexistence between man and nature, and a path of peaceful development, which not only provides new choices for world modernization, but also marks a new civilization coordinate for the accelerated development of the global women's cause. This profound change provides an unprecedented historical opportunity to fully release the creative potential of "half the sky."
The development of productivity lays a solid material foundation for promoting the comprehensive development of women. President Xi Jinping (习近平) emphasized: "Seize the opportunities of the new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation, and empower the high-quality development of the women's cause with technological innovation." Every leap in productivity will lay a material foundation for the adjustment of social relations. Digital and intelligent technology promotes the shift of key production factors from "physical strength" to "intelligence" and "creativity," fundamentally shaking the traditional gender division of labor model based on physiological differences. The rise of new business forms such as cloud computing, remote collaboration, and the platform economy changes the dependence of work on time and place, making work more flexible and providing good conditions for women to balance family and work. From the "Pro-Mom" group of non-traditional employment forms developed in the digital ecology of Shanghai Pudong (上海浦东), to the "Super Individual" of female compound talents spawned by the artificial intelligence era, and then to the hundreds of millions of women across the country who rely on the Internet to innovate and start businesses, their practices show that digital technology is dissolving the physical barriers that restrict women's development, enabling women to stand on a more equal starting point for development with their wisdom and creativity.
Open, inclusive, and collaborative social relations and organizational forms provide broad space for promoting the comprehensive development of women. Marx once profoundly pointed out: "The social relations in which individuals carry out production, that is, social production relations, change and change with the changes and development of material means of production and productivity." This basic principle of historical materialism inspires us that the leap in productivity promoted by digital and intelligent technology will inevitably require and spawn profound adjustments in social relations. The gender barriers in the traditional bureaucracy are being broken through by task- and community-oriented network collaboration models. In a flattened structure, leadership increasingly depends on factors such as professional competence, collaborative spirit, and empathy. At the same time, the spirit of working together in the same boat and harmonious coexistence contained in the concept of a community with a shared future for mankind has further laid the ideological premise for promoting the comprehensive development of women. This prompts the global community to recognize that women's full participation is no longer a passive giving under the discourse of "empowerment," but an inherent requirement for society to move towards a higher form. For example, in grassroots governance, crisis response, and other practices, women give play to the advantages of flexibility, refined analysis, and problem-solving, and are increasingly becoming a key force in enhancing social resilience and innovating solutions.
The continuous optimization of the social and cultural environment creates a good atmosphere for promoting the comprehensive development of women. President Xi Jinping (习近平) proposed: "Jointly create a good environment conducive to the growth and development of women." Chinese-style modernization adheres to a people-centered approach and pursues the all-round development of people, and this value orientation is being transformed into policy actions and cultural trends globally. From the United Nations listing gender equality as one of the Sustainable Development Goals to many countries integrating women's development indicators into national strategies; from companies regarding female talents as important resources to the pursuit of gender equality becoming a universal consensus... A more just and friendly social atmosphere is being generated, making the promotion of women's development transcend the demands of specific groups and become a systematic project concerning the common future of mankind, gathering broad social recognition.
The reform of the global governance system expands the space for international cooperation in promoting the comprehensive development of women. At present, the global governance system is undergoing profound adjustments. The Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative, the Global Civilization Initiative, and the Global Governance Initiative proposed by China provide an ideological framework for placing the promotion of women's comprehensive development in an important position on the global agenda. Under the cooperation framework of jointly building the "Belt and Road" with high quality, a series of projects with the theme of women's capacity building and economic empowerment are being steadily promoted. China's announcement of new donations to UN Women and the establishment of the "Global Women's Capacity Building Center" and other measures have injected new impetus into South-South cooperation. These multi-level international cooperation gathers more resources and forms more effective synergy to address global challenges such as the digital divide and educational injustice.
The path of women's development with Chinese characteristics of socialism leads and accelerates the new process of women's comprehensive development.
President Xi Jinping (习近平) pointed out: "China insists on integrating the women's cause into the broad practice of Chinese-style modernization. After years of hard work, China's women's cause has achieved historic achievements and historic changes." The world today is undergoing major changes unseen in a century, and the development of human civilization faces both new opportunities and new challenges. With a high degree of historical consciousness and a strong sense of responsibility, China has deeply integrated the comprehensive development of women into the grand practice of Chinese-style modernization, and has embarked on a correct path to realize women's equal exercise of democratic rights in accordance with the law, equal participation in economic and social development, and equal enjoyment of the fruits of reform and development, marking a distinct gender equality dimension and injecting a continuous impetus into the progress of human civilization. The path of women's development with Chinese characteristics of socialism has contributed systematic Chinese wisdom and pragmatic Chinese solutions to the global women's cause, and is playing an increasingly important leading role in the international community.
The significant advantage of the path of women's development with Chinese characteristics of socialism lies in ensuring that the women's cause resonates with national development through an institutionalized national action system. From establishing gender equality as a basic national policy and writing it into the Constitution and laws, to successively formulating and implementing women's development outlines for multiple cycles; from the strategic deployment of women's work by the National Congress of the Communist Party of China to the arrangement of safeguarding women's rights and interests in the national development plan, China has built a highly systematic support system for women's development. This system places the cause of women's liberation and development in the overall situation of national development for overall planning, making it an important yardstick for measuring social civilization progress. During the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, we will further strengthen this institutional arrangement, simultaneously consider gender equality factors in all fields and links of economic and social development, so that the macro layout of national development and the micro well-being of women's groups can achieve closer policy connection, and provide more stable, sustainable, and predictable institutional guarantees for women's development.
The era vitality of the path of women's development with Chinese characteristics of socialism is concentrated in the forward-looking grasp of the new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation trends, and actively guiding women to play a key role in the development of new quality productive forces. The gender division of labor barriers based on physical strength under the traditional development model are being dissolved by digital and intelligent technology, which creates a historic opportunity to redefine the role of women in economic life. During the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, the state will attach great importance to exploring and releasing women's innovation potential in the strategy of accelerating the development of new quality productive forces and laying out future industries. In emerging fields, Chinese female entrepreneurs have shown strong vitality. According to statistics, Chinese Internet female entrepreneurs account for more than half, and in the forefront of artificial intelligence research and development, commercial aerospace applications, female scientific and technological workers are becoming an indispensable force. The deep integration of national development strategies and women's development opportunities stimulates gender dividends, which can become a strong driving force for promoting high-quality economic and social development.
The international contribution of the path of women's development with Chinese characteristics of socialism lies in adhering to the concept of a community with a shared future for mankind and promoting the progress of the global women's cause through open and pragmatic cooperation. President Xi Jinping (习近平) pointed out: "China actively provides opportunities and guarantees for the global women's cause with its own development." China is not only a firm advocate of global women's development, but also an important action faction. Through multilateral platforms and cooperation mechanisms such as jointly building the "Belt and Road" with high quality, China has implemented a series of projects benefiting women's health, education, and skills development. China's announcement of providing further donations to UN Women in the next five years and implementing a series of measures such as thousands of "small and beautiful" projects for women and girls are being steadily implemented, providing valuable public goods for women's capacity building in the world, especially in developing countries. These actions demonstrate China's unique concepts of promoting international women's cooperation focusing on capacity building of "teaching people how to fish," focusing on pragmatic results of improving people's livelihoods, and advocating equal and mutually beneficial cooperation models, contributing oriental wisdom to improving global women's development governance.
Working together with countries around the world and gathering the strength of all parties to accelerate the new process of women's comprehensive development.
President Xi Jinping (习近平) pointed out in his keynote speech at the opening ceremony of the Global Women's Summit: "At present, achieving the comprehensive development of women still faces complex challenges" "We must revisit the original intention of the Beijing World Conference on Women, gather broader consensus, open up broader paths, and take more pragmatic actions to accelerate the new process of women's comprehensive development." The four suggestions put forward by President Xi Jinping (习近平) on jointly creating a good environment conducive to the growth and development of women, jointly cultivating strong momentum for promoting the high-quality development of the women's cause, jointly building a governance pattern that guarantees women's rights and interests, and jointly writing a new chapter in promoting global women's cooperation, profoundly clarify the practical path of accelerating the comprehensive development of women, provide fundamental guidelines for the international community to build consensus and coordinate actions, and also provide action guidelines for countries to promote the comprehensive development of women and the progress of human civilization to resonate at the same frequency. Transforming the new process of accelerating the comprehensive development of women into a common action of the international community is a major mission entrusted to us by the times.
Build a more just and effective global women's development governance system. President Xi Jinping (习近平) emphasized: "Jointly write a new chapter in promoting global women's cooperation" "We must support women to shoulder the responsibilities of the times, deeply participate in global governance, and share the fruits of governance." The challenges faced by women's development, such as war, poverty, and the digital divide, are all global issues that cross borders, and only global cooperation can effectively address them. The international community should maintain the international system with the United Nations as the core, take the shared fate of women around the world as the value consensus, and gather the policy synergy of various countries. Deeply integrate gender equality into the global development agenda, security framework, and climate action, and ensure that resources and policies to address various crises benefit women. Developed countries should earnestly fulfill their aid commitments, and developing countries need to deepen South-South cooperation and share their respective development experiences.
To build a more just and effective global governance system for women's development. President Xi Jinping (习近平) emphasized: "Jointly write a new chapter in promoting global cooperation among women" and "We must support women to take on the responsibilities of the times, deeply participate in global governance, and share the fruits of governance." The challenges facing women's development, such as war, poverty, and the digital divide, are all global issues that transcend national borders, and can only be effectively addressed through global cooperation. The international community should uphold the international system with the United Nations as its core, take the shared destiny of women around the world as a common value consensus, and pool the policy synergy of various countries. Gender equality should be deeply integrated into global development agendas, security frameworks, and climate action, ensuring that resources and policies to address various crises benefit women. Developed countries should earnestly fulfill their aid commitments, and developing countries need to deepen South-South cooperation and share their respective development experiences.
To guide countries in establishing forward-looking, systematic, and assessable national policy mechanisms. President Xi Jinping (习近平) emphasized: "It is necessary to improve systems and laws, introduce more tangible and accessible policies and measures, so that more high-quality health and education resources benefit all women, and strive to enable the majority of women to enjoy various rights more fully and equitably." The challenges facing women's development, such as poverty, the education gap, and employment discrimination, are largely related to the fragmentation of policy design in some countries, the lack of a gender perspective, and the weakness of implementation and supervision. Only by deeply integrating the concept of gender equality into the overall national development strategy, and achieving cross-field coordination and cross-departmental collaboration through top-level design, can the systemic obstacles to women's development be fundamentally resolved. Countries should formulate national women's development strategies based on their national conditions, and integrate a gender perspective into key policies such as industry, employment, and education. On this basis, efforts should be made to build a clear, smooth-running implementation and supervision mechanism: first, clarify the coordinating body to coordinate policy implementation, resource allocation, and cross-departmental collaboration; second, establish monitoring indicators to establish a quantifiable and traceable gender equality assessment system, and regularly publish progress reports; and third, strengthen accountability and unblock channels for the participation and supervision of women's organizations, research institutions, the media, and other parties. Only in this way can policy provisions be effectively transformed into tangible development results for women.
To promote profound changes in social and cultural concepts and the collaborative participation of multiple actors throughout society. President Xi Jinping (习近平) pointed out: "Strive to build a harmonious and inclusive social culture" and "Take gender equality as the core and break down backward ideas and outdated customs that hinder women's development." Institutional guarantees are certainly important, but if there is a lack of deep support from cultural concepts, policies may fall into the dilemma of 有法可依、有法难行 (yǒu fǎ kě yī, yǒu fǎ nán xíng - "there are laws to abide by, but it is difficult to enforce them," a situation where laws exist but are not effectively implemented); if there is a lack of broad participation from multiple actors, the government's strength will eventually be unsustainable. Only by internalizing gender equality as a value consensus among members of society and transforming it into the conscious actions of various organizations can a deep and lasting social foundation be built for the comprehensive development of women. It is necessary to continuously disseminate the values of gender equality and mutual respect in the fields of education, media, and culture, and break down gender biases and stereotypes. Special attention should be paid to and encouraging men to become advocates and actors in promoting gender equality. At the same time, fully stimulate the initiative of enterprises, social organizations, communities, families, and every citizen, so that promoting the comprehensive development of women becomes a collective consciousness of the whole society, and injects deep and lasting impetus into accelerating the new process of comprehensive women's development.

General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平) pointed out that "establishing and practicing a correct view of performance hinges decisively on Party spirit," emphasizing that enhancing Party spirit requires "self-examination against both positive and negative examples, frequent dusting of 'ideological dust,' deep reflection on the 'harm of greed,' and constant breaking of the 'thief within,' ensuring no reckless actions externally by ensuring no reckless thoughts internally." General Secretary Xi Jinping's (习近平) important exposition profoundly inspires us that to firmly establish a correct view of performance, we must temper our Party spirit, constantly break the "thief within," rely on solid cultivation and experience, and with the awareness of "examining oneself as if falling behind," always maintain self-respect, self-reflection, self-vigilance, and self-encouragement, truly achieving "the heart unmoved by the lure of petty gains, the eyes undazzled by the bewilderment of colorful things," effectively preventing and correcting deviations in the view of performance.
The "thief within" is both a cognitive bias caused by selfish and distracting thoughts and a mental inertia caused by following old ways and sticking to established practices. The "thief within" is different from the "thief in the mountains." The "thief in the mountains" is an objective existence, an "external threat" revealed in form, with problems and contradictions manifesting in concrete forms like "enemies in plain sight," making them easier to discover and resolve promptly. The "thief within" is an "internal worry" in subjective consciousness, traceless, with extreme concealment, and diverse, with extreme corrosiveness. It manifests specifically as: the "greedy thief" of being enslaved by material desires and seeking personal gain through power; the "ostentatious thief" of liking to put on a show and being keen on creating momentum; the "lazy governance thief" of being unenterprising and shirking responsibility; and so on. If Party members and cadres have a "thief" in their hearts, their view of performance will be misplaced, leading to "image projects" and "performance projects," distorting the idea of privilege into "deserved treatment"... The original aspiration is "stolen," the public heart is "robbed," ultimately leading to reckless actions and loss of the bottom line. Only by living, learning, and cultivating oneself until old age, constantly breaking the "thief within," can we build a solid foundation of ideals and beliefs, guard the line of defense against corruption and degeneration, and govern for the public and create benefits for the people.
Looking inward is called clarity, overcoming oneself is called strength. Breaking the "thief within" requires both the courage to cut into oneself and sustained effort on the words "constant" and "long-term." The way to break the thief lies first in enhancing the courage and determination of a brave man severing his wrist. Only by daring to expose shortcomings and ugliness, scraping bones to remove poison, can we rectify our hearts, clarify the path, remove corruption, and generate new life. A dike collapses due to an anthill, and air leaks through a needle's point. To constantly break the "thief within," we must always maintain the ideological consciousness of facing problems squarely, thoroughly investigate problems in the spirit of thorough materialism, always aim the "searchlight" at ourselves, and frequently use the "microscope" to examine ourselves. With fear in our hearts, we can be cautious in our words and restrained in our actions. Constantly reflect on our faults, so that we can constantly cultivate, constantly renew, constantly understand, and constantly progress. Sailing against the current, a single oar cannot be relaxed; water dripping through stone, a single drop cannot be abandoned. To constantly break the "thief within," we must persevere and work for a long time. Strengthening Party spirit cultivation is the fundamental way to correct deviations in the view of performance, and we must carry the spirit of self-revolution through to the end with the perseverance and determination of always being on the road.
Constantly breaking, but also constantly establishing, that is, continuously cultivating the "heart learning" of Communists, always using Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era (习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想) to strengthen the soul, and adhering to the integration of learning, thinking, and application, and the unity of knowing, believing, and acting. We cannot sit and talk about principles; we must actively and proactively temper ourselves in practice, truly engage in real work, and solve the questions of for whom to create achievements, what kind of achievements to create, and how to create achievements. Unite self-cultivation and self-discipline with taking responsibility and making achievements, be brave in shouldering heavy burdens and tackling tough issues, and dare to take on hot potatoes. Xu Congxiang (徐淙祥), who turned many "fields relying on heaven" into "high-yield fields," Liao Junbo (廖俊波), who "would rather be on the scene than in the meeting room," Yang Shanzhou (杨善洲), who believed that "as long as life does not end, serving the people does not stop"... Countless outstanding Communists have always stood firmly on the people's position, firmly established the mass viewpoint, and consciously regarded creating benefits for the people as the greatest achievement, externalizing their Party spirit cultivation into practical actions to benefit the people.
When righteousness exists within, evil cannot invade. Only by guarding the heart from small things and details, firming ideals and beliefs, strengthening Party spirit cultivation, and establishing and practicing a correct view of performance, can we withstand tests in the face of various storms and temptations, and constantly create new achievements worthy of history, worthy of the times, and worthy of the people.

General Secretary Xi Jinping (习近平) pointed out: "To promote the high-quality development of finance and build a strong financial nation, we must adhere to the combination of the rule of law and moral governance, actively cultivate a financial culture with Chinese characteristics, and achieve: honesty and trustworthiness, without crossing the bottom line; taking profit with righteousness, not being solely profit-driven; being prudent and steady, not seeking quick success and instant benefits; upholding integrity and innovation, not deviating from the real economy and moving towards the virtual; complying with laws and regulations, not acting recklessly." Building a strong financial nation is inseparable from the support of culture. An excellent financial culture can regulate the value orientation of the financial industry and exert an internal incentive and constraint effect. We must thoroughly study and implement the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's (习近平) important speech, strengthen cultural confidence, actively cultivate a financial culture with Chinese characteristics, and provide spiritual motivation and cultural support for promoting the high-quality development of finance and building a strong financial nation.
The financial culture with Chinese characteristics takes Marxist financial theory as its theoretical foundation. Marxist financial theory uses historical materialism and dialectical materialism as its methodology, profoundly revealing the essence, operating laws, and social attributes of finance. For example, it criticizes the exploitative and profit-seeking nature of the capitalist financial system, pointing out its essence of serving capital appreciation; it believes that the operation of monetary capital must rely on the actual production process, and the empty operation that deviates from the actual production process will inevitably lead to bubbles and crises; and so on. Marxist financial theory fundamentally clarifies the position and mission of finance, provides theoretical support for the formation and development of a financial culture with Chinese characteristics, and helps China's finance better serve the real economy, the overall interests of society, and the goal of common prosperity for all the people.
The financial culture with Chinese characteristics draws on the economic ethics and commercial wisdom contained in the more than 5,000-year history of Chinese civilization. In the long-term development process, Chinese civilization has formed unique economic thoughts and business ethics, such as "considering righteousness when seeing profit" and "taking only after righteousness," which have laid the moral foundation for financial activities, and "没有规矩，不成方圆 (méi yǒu guī ju, bù chéng fāng yuán - "without rules, nothing can be accomplished," emphasizes the importance of established norms and standards)" which highlights the importance of institutional rules. The credit system of ancient Piaohao (票号 - Shanxi merchant banking houses) "connecting the world" is a vivid portrayal of excellent traditional Chinese culture in the financial field. The financial culture with Chinese characteristics creatively transforms and innovatively develops these valuable ideological assets, so that they can radiate strong vitality under the new conditions of the times, and provide cultural support for the high-quality development of finance in the new era and new journey.
The financial culture with Chinese characteristics is a summary of the experiences of our party in uniting and leading the people to carry out financial practices. In leading economic work, our party has continuously explored the use of finance to support the cause of revolution, construction, and reform, guiding the continuous development and progress of China's financial industry. For example, during the period of the New Democratic Revolution, the banks in the revolutionary base areas served production and supported the revolutionary war. Before and after the founding of New China, the financial and economic front struggles such as the "Silver Dollar War" and the "Rice and Cotton War" led and deployed by our party severely打击了投机资本, and effectively maintained the stability of the national economy. Since the reform and opening up, especially in the new era, China's financial industry has always unswervingly adhered to the leadership of the Party, steadily moved forward in exploration, persevered in deepening financial reforms, unswervingly served the real economy, persistently prevented and resolved risks, and continuously promoted financial practice innovation, theoretical innovation, and institutional innovation. These practices, while continuously deepening the understanding of the essence of socialism with Chinese characteristics in finance, have also injected red genes and wisdom into the formation and development of a financial culture with Chinese characteristics.
In general, the financial culture with Chinese characteristics is an important achievement of our party's continuous deepening of the understanding of the essence of socialism with Chinese characteristics in finance, and it is the product of the combination of Marxist financial theory with the specific reality of contemporary China and with excellent traditional Chinese culture. It has constructed a set of value systems that are different from the Western capital-supremacist financial ethics, giving the path of financial development with Chinese characteristics a broader historical depth and cultural connotation. Since the new era, the core values of the financial culture with Chinese characteristics have been deeply integrated into all aspects of financial operation. For example, in serving the real economy, the cultural concept of upholding integrity and innovation makes financial resources more focused on flowing to major national strategic areas and weak links in the field of people's livelihood, consolidating the foundation for a virtuous cycle of mutual prosperity between finance and the real economy; in risk prevention and control, the cultural concept of prudence and compliance with laws and regulations promotes the gradual consolidation of the spiritual defense line for preventing and resolving systemic financial risks, and promotes the establishment and improvement of a complete and effective financial regulatory system, making the financial safety net tighter and tighter, and building a solid security barrier for the construction of a strong financial nation.
To better play the role of the financial culture with Chinese characteristics, efforts should be made in cultivation and promotion. First, we must deeply understand that cultivating a financial culture with Chinese characteristics is a systematic and long-term task, and we must always adhere to and strengthen the Party's comprehensive leadership over financial work, and transform the institutional advantages of the Party's leadership into the effectiveness of promoting the cultivation of a financial culture with Chinese characteristics. Second, we must promote financial innovation on the track of marketization and the rule of law, closely focus on better serving the real economy and facilitating the people to optimize credit products and service models, and at the same time comprehensively strengthen financial supervision, and create a cultural atmosphere of compliance with laws and regulations for the high-quality development of finance. Third, we must encourage and guide financial institutions and employees to consciously internalize the financial culture with Chinese characteristics in their hearts and externalize it in their actions, organically combine the cultivation of the financial culture with Chinese characteristics with the in-depth practice of socialist core values, and combine the cultivation and promotion of the financial culture with Chinese characteristics with the actual development of their own units and institutions, and take practical actions to practice the political and people-oriented nature of financial work. We must also base ourselves on the financial practice of the new era, deepen the publicity, research, interpretation and elaboration of the financial culture with Chinese characteristics, and provide deep and solid cultural support for guarding the roots and souls of the modern financial system with Chinese characteristics.

Return to TopAs a leading enterprise in China's dairy industry, Heilongjiang Feihe Dairy Co., Ltd. (黑龙江飞鹤乳业有限公司) (referred to as "Feihe (飞鹤)") has been deeply involved in the dairy industry for over six decades. It has overcome raw material challenges through technological innovation and shaped quality benchmarks with its deep processing capabilities, forging a high-quality development path of "adhering to the main business and strengthening the real economy."
Today, Feihe (飞鹤) is expanding its deeply accumulated professional capabilities to the field of full life-cycle nutrition supply, building a nutritional product matrix covering "the elderly and the young," and safeguarding the nutritional health of hundreds of millions of families with long-termism and professionalism.
Breaking Through with Technological Innovation, Promoting Breakthroughs in Dairy Protein Deep Processing Technology
As a leading enterprise in the industry, Feihe (飞鹤) takes the layout of the entire industrial chain as its foundation and cuts into dairy protein deep processing, using independent innovation to build a safety defense line for nutritional supply.
Since 2011, Feihe (飞鹤) has launched research on dairy protein deep processing, and jointly carried out technical research with well-known domestic universities such as Shanghai Jiao Tong University (上海交通大学) and Jiangnan University (江南大学). It has successively undertaken the National "Twelfth Five-Year" Science and Technology Support Project and the "Fourteenth Five-Year" National Key R&D Program project, focusing on breaking through multiple key raw material production problems and helping China's dairy industry enhance its global competitiveness.
Technological breakthroughs are an important starting point for achieving independent and controllable raw materials. Feihe (飞鹤) has built a complete system of "cutting-edge research—technology reserve—commercialization and implementation," achieving a number of "zero breakthroughs" in the field of dairy protein deep processing: it has built a number of domestic large-scale production lines for lactoferrin and other products, achieving 100% self-production capacity of 11 key raw materials, and at the same time completed the technical reserve of 8 important raw materials such as milk fat globule membrane protein, comprehensively promoting the localization of key raw materials. The company has innovatively launched an industry-leading fresh dairy protein extraction and activation process, combined with technologies such as chromatographic extraction and precision membrane separation, to retain more active ingredients of dairy protein.
Driven by technological breakthroughs, Feihe (飞鹤) continues to promote the transformation of research and development results into industrialization. In 2012, Feihe (飞鹤) built a demineralized whey production line and continued to tackle green production technology; in 2022, Feihe (飞鹤) built the first large-scale automated lactoferrin production line in China; in 2024, Feihe's (飞鹤) new generation of hydrolyzed whey protein production line was officially put into production, innovatively adopting food-grade composite enzyme-directed enzymatic hydrolysis and precision enzymatic hydrolysis control technology to enzymatically hydrolyze macromolecular milk protein into small molecular structures, effectively solving the absorption problem of milk protein and bringing a better experience to consumers.
Up to now, Feihe (飞鹤) has cumulatively built three major dairy deep processing projects in Kedong (克东), Inner Mongolia (内蒙古), and Yinchuan (银川), with a total investment of 1.738 billion yuan. Through large-scale and intensive development models, it efficiently transforms raw milk resources and lays a solid production capacity foundation for the implementation of dairy protein deep processing.
Anchoring Quality Upgrade, Creating Leading Advantages in the Industrial Chain Layout
On the solid foundation of forward-looking layout of the dairy protein deep processing industry, Feihe (飞鹤) transforms its deep processing capabilities into "fresher" and "more suitable" product quality. Through three industrial upgrades, it continues to bring richer and higher-quality nutritional experiences to consumers.
High-quality milk sources are the starting point for freshness. Since 2006, Feihe (飞鹤) has been rooted in the 47 degrees north latitude golden milk source belt and has built 13 of its own ranches. The total number of bacteria colonies in the fresh milk produced is 20 times better than the EU standard, and the quality has reached the international leading level. Relying on the advantages of the industrial cluster, Feihe (飞鹤) has created a "2-hour ecosystem," which quickly reduces the fresh milk after squeezing to 0-4 degrees Celsius and uses cold chain transportation to reach the factory directly within 2 hours, retaining sufficient natural active nutrition for the deep processing link. This is Feihe's (飞鹤) first industrial upgrade, and it has also created a pioneering paradigm for subsequent domestic milk powder companies to build their own ranches and lay out the entire industrial chain.
Production standards are the beacon of quality. Based on the layout of the entire industrial chain, Feihe (飞鹤) completed the second industrial upgrade in terms of "fresh" nutritional standards. In 2018, Feihe (飞鹤) joined hands with the China Institute of Standardization (中国标准化研究院) to establish a milk powder production standard centered on the "fresh raw milk one-time powder formation" technology, using quantifiable standards to promote industry technology upgrades and lock in the original nutrition of raw milk.
Consumer demand is the landing point of the industry. Relying on the fresh dairy protein extraction and activation process, Feihe's (飞鹤) freshly produced casein phosphopeptides, whey protein, lactoferrin and other key raw materials are extracted from raw milk and applied to milk powder in no more than 30 days. In 2025, Feihe (飞鹤) also launched a fresh raw material traceability system, extending the traceability scope from finished products to raw materials, completing the connection between product deep processing and transparent services. Consumers can clearly view the production date, production process and related test reports of key raw materials such as whey protein and lactoferrin by scanning the QR code at the bottom of the can, promoting the industry to enter a new stage of "visible safety, traceable raw materials, and verifiable freshness." This is Feihe's (飞鹤) third upgrade.
From milk source control to technology upgrades, from raw material autonomy to traceability transparency, Feihe (飞鹤) uses three innovative upgrades to enable deep processing capabilities to empower perceptible fresh quality. Today, Feihe (飞鹤) is extending its strict production standards and professional capabilities to the field of full life-cycle nutrition supply with continuous innovation and deep cultivation—using Chinese raw materials, Chinese standards, and Chinese technology to create "more suitable" nutritional products and precise and customized nutritional solutions, laying a solid foundation for safeguarding the nutritional health of hundreds of millions of families.
Deeply Cultivating Full-Age Nutritional Needs, Building a High-Quality Nutritional Product Matrix
By the end of 2025, the number of elderly people aged 60 and above in China will reach 320 million, and it is expected that this group will exceed 400 million by 2035. Facing the dual needs of care for key groups of "the elderly and the young" and the upgrading of national nutrition, high-quality protein supply has become an important issue for improving the health level of the people.
In response to this important issue, Feihe (飞鹤) is exploring with its own strategic upgrades. Based on the physical characteristics and nutritional needs of Chinese consumers, Feihe (飞鹤) is transforming into a full-age nutrition leader based on relevant scientific research results and leveraging the fresh dairy protein extraction and activation process and the advantages of the entire industrial chain.
Relying on its accumulation in the field of infant formula milk powder, Feihe (飞鹤) is committed to achieving orderly expansion and efficient transformation of professional capabilities. As a pioneer in the research of the "Fourteenth Five-Year" National Key R&D Program project, Feihe (飞鹤) maintains its leading position in fields such as formula nutrition and builds a nutritional product matrix covering early life, children and adolescents, adults, and middle-aged and elderly people, so that people of different ages can enjoy high-quality dairy protein nutrition suitable for their physique.
Technological innovation and medical research collaboration are the technical support for Feihe's (飞鹤) full life-cycle strategy. Feihe (飞鹤) has jointly built research platforms with scientific research institutions such as Peking University Health Science Center (北京大学医学部) and Capital Medical University (首都医科大学) to form an integrated system of cutting-edge theoretical research and efficacy verification, and continues to launch high-quality functional nutrition products suitable for Chinese people.
In response to the decline in digestive function of middle-aged and elderly people, the Feihe Aiben (飞鹤爱本) series has undergone 7 years and more than 3,000 experiments to overcome the exclusive patented "industrialized preparation system and control method of enzymatically hydrolyzed casein polypeptide" (patent number: ZL 2024 1 1666830.8), which transforms milk protein into small molecule milk protein that is more easily digested and absorbed by the human body. This technology and application-related achievements have also won honors such as the Special Prize for Technological Progress Award of the China Dairy Industry Association (中国乳制品工业协会).
Consolidating the self-produced and self-researched dairy protein raw material extraction capabilities, and safeguarding the health of hundreds of millions of families with high-quality nutritional products, Feihe (飞鹤) strives to be a trustworthy leader in full-age nutrition and continues to contribute the "Feihe (飞鹤) solution" for "making humans smarter, healthier, and longer-lived."
