A new era and a new journey, the country is magnificent and the weather is countless.
In the first year of fully implementing the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, in this promising spring, the first session of the 14th National People’s Congress and the first session of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference completed various agendas and came to a successful conclusion.
From March 4 to 13, more than 5,000 new deputies to the National People’s Congress and members of the National Committee of the ******* People’s Political Consultative Conference performed their duties solidly, actively offered suggestions, and played the movement of the times of *********, unity, truth-seeking, and progress.
The spring tide is surging, and it is time to set sail.
The General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee, the President of the State, and the Supreme Leader of the Chairperson of the Central Military Commission delivered an important speech at the closing session of the First Session of the 14th National People’s Congress, issuing a call –
"Unite and strive, pioneer and innovate, and make achievements in the new journey without negative times, without negative history, and without negative people. Make our generation’s due contributions to promoting the construction of a strong country and national rejuvenation!"
Under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee with the supreme leader as the core, the people of all ethnic groups in the country are full of confidence, vigor, courage and determination to move forward, gather great strength, and will surely create new great achievements with new great struggles.
Demarcate the position and go on a journey together – transform the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China into national will and common actions, and move towards new goals at a new historical starting point
This is a historic moment on the new journey of a new era –
On the morning of March 10, 2023, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader was unanimously elected President of the State and Chairperson of the Central Military Commission at the third plenary session of the First Session of the 14th National People’s Congress.

The long-term warm applause resounded through the Great Hall of the People, fully reflecting the common wishes and aspirations of the whole Party, the whole army, and the people of all ethnic groups in the country.
A solemn moment, a brand new beginning.
Looking back from a new starting point, the decade of the new era has been so magnificent in the historical process of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation –
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee with the supreme leader as the core, the Party and the country have made historic achievements and undergone historic changes, and our country has embarked on a new journey of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way.
In the five years since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, our Party has united and led the people, won the tough battle of poverty reduction as scheduled, built a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way, achieved the goal of the first century, and promoted the cause of the Party and the country to achieve major achievements that have attracted worldwide attention.
2022 is an extremely important and critical year in the history of the party and the country. The Beijing Olympic Winter Games and the Winter Paralympic Games will be held safely and smoothly as scheduled, and the epidemic prevention and control policies and measures will be dynamically optimized and adjusted. The economy will grow by 3% throughout the year. The cause of the party and the country has achieved fruitful results.
Immerse yourself in the torrent of history and perceive the might of the times.
Zhao Wanping, vice president of Anhui Academy of Agricultural Sciences, has been elected to the National People’s Congress for three consecutive terms. He has long insisted on research in rural areas and witnessed the extraordinary leap of the vast land of China from poverty reduction to comprehensive rural revitalization, from comprehensive well-off to solid promotion of common prosperity.
"The achievement of great historic achievements fundamentally lies in having the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader as the core of the Party Central Committee, the core of the whole Party at the helm and leading the way, and the scientific guidance of the Supreme Leader’s thought on socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era," Zhao Wanping said firmly.
Standing at a new starting point, the new journey full of glory and dreams is so magnificent –
The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China has drawn a grand blueprint for building a modern socialist country in an all-round way and taking the Chinese path to modernization to comprehensively promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, sounding the horn of the times to embark on a new journey.
The future is great, drumming to urge recruitment.
The National Two Sessions in 2023 is the first National Two Sessions held after the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. A new generation of state institutions and leaders of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference will be elected to review or discuss government work reports, plan reports, budget reports, work reports of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress, work reports of the Standing Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, reports of the two high schools, draft amendments to legislative laws, and institutional reform plans of the State Council…
With the completion of the various agendas, the strategic plans and action guidelines established by the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China were transformed into the will of the state through legal procedures.
The extraordinary National Two Sessions, marking a new journey and a new direction –
Based on the orientation of the new era, the National Two Sessions outlined a phased construction map of the Chinese path to modernization.
In his important speech at the closing session of the National People’s Congress, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized "accelerating the Chinese path to modernization", the government work report proposed "solidly advancing the Chinese path to modernization", and the revised legislative law clearly "guaranteed the Chinese path to modernization and comprehensively promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation"… At this year’s National Two Sessions, the Chinese path to modernization is an important focus.
Raise the flag and orient, and set out the program.
More than a month ago, at the opening ceremony of the seminar on studying and implementing the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader profoundly explained a series of major theoretical and practical issues on the Chinese path to modernization.
From advancing key core technologies to accelerating the research and development and application of cutting-edge technologies, from improving the modern logistics system to vigorously developing the digital economy, this year’s government work report focuses on accelerating the construction of a modern industrial system.
"Only by reducing excessive reliance on traditional industries can we make a magnificent turnaround." In recent years, the development focus of Jiao Yun, a deputy to the National People’s Congress, has shifted from coal mining and coking to graphene to win market competitiveness. He said that the roadmap set by the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China should be used as a guide, and the construction map drawn by the National Two Sessions should be used as a direction to push the enterprise into the track of modernization.
Focusing on the new practical orientation, the National Two Sessions plan firmly grasps the top priority of high-quality development.
"We must fully, accurately and comprehensively implement the new development concept" "We must better coordinate the effective improvement of quality and the reasonable growth of quantity" "We must unswervingly deepen reform and opening up, and deeply transform the development mode" "We must take meeting the people’s growing needs for a better life as the starting point and end point".
On March 5, when the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader attended the deliberation of the Jiangsu delegation at the first session of the 14th National People’s Congress, he further pointed out the way forward and provided important guidelines for promoting high-quality development with the "four imperatives", and systematically elaborated the only way to promote high-quality development, the strategic basis points, the inevitable requirements and the ultimate goal.
After listening to the important speech of the general secretary on the spot, Liu Qing, president of the Jiangsu Industrial Technology Research Institute, said: "We must play the role of the experimental field for the reform of the scientific and technological system and mechanism, promote the deep integration of the innovation chain, industrial chain, capital chain and talent chain, and strive to become an important engine for implementing the innovation-driven development strategy and promoting the integrated high-quality development of the Yangtze River Delta."
Climb high and look far, grasp the trend.
Leng Weiqing, secretary of the party committee and chairperson of the joint stock company of Shanghai Electric Group, said: "The national strategy guides the development strategy of enterprises. At present, the industrial chain we serve has ushered in the golden age of domestic substitution. Orders are in good condition. Adhering to high-quality development is the foundation and confidence to seize strategic opportunities."
Aiming at the new target position, the National Two Sessions made arrangements for economic and social development throughout the year.
GDP growth of around 5%, new jobs in cities and towns of around 12 million, consumer prices of around 3%, food production remains above 1.30 trillion catties… A series of major expected targets for 2023 have been clearly set.
This year is the first year for the full implementation of the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, a key year for the implementation of the "14th Five-Year Plan" to connect the past and the future, and an important year for laying the foundation for the comprehensive construction of a modern socialist country. Achieving the goals and tasks of the year is of great significance.
The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed that to promote the Chinese path to modernization, we must do a good job in the first year.
Looking at the whole year, Chen Yulu, President of Nankai University, believes that China’s economy has the ability to rise to the challenge and climb the hill, has been overcoming difficulties to develop and progress, and has surpassed itself in responding to challenges. It is fully capable of withstanding short-term fluctuations and winning long-term development.
Looking to the future, Sun Dongsheng, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, is full of confidence: "Today’s China is full of vitality, and tomorrow’s China will strive to achieve its dreams. We are full of pride and down-to-earth, and we will go to the new journey of Chinese path to modernization together."
Self-confidence and self-improvement – full of confidence on the Chinese path to modernization
On the afternoon of March 5, the East Hall of the Great Hall of the People was brightly lit. At the review site of the Jiangsu delegation, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader and the delegates had a warm exchange.
"In 2017, the 220-ton all-ground crane you took when you inspected Xugong has reached the first place in the world, and the localization rate has increased from 71% to 100%." Shan Zenghai, a representative from Xugong Group, brought good news to the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader.

The general secretary said with certainty: "Your construction machinery has been made and has reached the world’s leading level. From a global perspective, our current range of manufacturing categories is the most complete. At the same time, we need to further improve and move towards the mid-to-high end. Our high-quality development must be reflected here."
The next afternoon, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader visited the members of the CPPCC and the Federation of Industry and Commerce who attended the first session of the 14th National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, and participated in the joint organization meeting. Facing the eager eyes of the members, the General Secretary firmly said: "Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, we have always adhered to’two unswerving ‘and’three unchanged’, and always regarded private enterprises and private entrepreneurs as our own."
"The words of the general secretary are loud and clear, and the spring breeze has turned into rain. They have reached our hearts, and everyone feels warm and excited." Representative Dai Xuebin, chairperson of Lanrun Group, said that now the reform dividend has been released continuously, and the development environment has continued to be optimized. "We will take advantage of the trend and live up to the times, and seek development with enthusiasm."
Confidence has gathered and risen at this year’s National Two Sessions.
The great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation has entered a critical period to start a new journey, and our country’s development has entered a period of coexistence of strategic opportunities and risks and challenges, and an increase in uncertainties and unforeseen factors.
Looking outward, the world is experiencing unprecedented changes in a century, with the world entering a new period of turbulent change. The global development and security situation is complex, and humanity is facing many common challenges.
Looking inward, our country’s reform, development and stability are still facing many deep-seated contradictions. The triple pressure of demand contraction, supply shock and expected weakening is still relatively large, and the foundation for economic recovery is not yet solid.
With confidence comes strength, which breeds hope.
"When are there no difficulties? One by one, the new year is passed, and the new year is good. The Chinese nation has been like this for more than 5,000 years." At the Central Economic Work Conference held at the end of last year, the heartfelt words of the general secretary of the Supreme Leader resonated strongly.
From winter to spring, another journey.
Starting from spring, the new beginning and new atmosphere demonstrate confidence –
"Born in spring, in the spring of hope." At the meeting of the Sichuan delegation, Zheng Wangchun, secretary of the Party Branch of Gulu Village, Hanyuan County, spoke about the origin of his name.

Known as a "village on a cliff", Gulu Village used to rely on tree vines to climb the rock walls. After the cableway opened in 2018, the original three-hour mountain road only took three minutes, and tourists from other places came to clock in.
Now, the pear blossoms in Yi Village will bloom again. Zheng Wangchun is full of joy when he clicks on the photos on his mobile phone to introduce the changes in the village to the delegates: "The villagers and I are more confident in the future."
The spring spirit of China is stronger, the production workshop is more and more busy, the field is a lively scene, the energy of the strivers and dream chasers is constantly bursting out… all over the country, inside and outside the venue, the breath of vitality and vitality is coming.
The opening report card was full of confidence. Standing on the "member channel", the data presented by member Dai Bin, president of the China Tourism Academy, was eye-catching: "The number of domestic tourists during the Spring Festival holiday this year reached 308 million, creating 375.80 billion yuan in tourism revenue."
The annual target map shows confidence. At the "authoritative department talk opening" press conference, Zhao Chenxin, deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission, revealed that 27 of the 31 provinces, autonomous regions and cities are expected to have higher economic growth targets this year than the whole country. The development confidence and practical measures taken by all localities have created conditions and laid the foundation for the realization of the national goals.
Starting from the spring, new policies and measures have strengthened confidence –
In Yantian Port, Shenzhen, Guangdong, with the sound of the international container liner, a giant ship carrying new energy vehicles embarked on a voyage.
At the venue, Li Shufu, chairperson of Geely Holding Group Co., Ltd., said: "China’s new energy vehicle production and sales have ranked first in the world for eight consecutive years. Last year, it exported 679,000 vehicles, an increase of 120% year-on-year."

This year’s plan report proposes to build a number of landmark projects, deepen international production capacity cooperation and third-party market cooperation. This allows Zeng Yuqun, chairperson of CATL, to seize greater development opportunities: "We must face difficulties, keep moving forward with domestic development, and unswervingly go out, and strive to occupy the commanding heights of the global new energy industry."
Macro policies are working together, strengthening kinetic energy, increasing investment in people’s livelihood security, and the policy "combination fist" in government work reports, plan reports, and budget reports are coordinated and coordinated, igniting the confidence "engine" that promotes development throughout the year.
Adhere to the people first, and constantly realize the people’s yearning for a better life. From the basic synchronization of residents’ income growth and economic growth, to promoting the employment of college graduates in a more prominent position; from promoting the expansion and sinking of high-quality medical resources and the balanced layout of regions, to the balance of compulsory education, the quality of vocational education, and the innovation of higher education… The National Two Sessions have deployed new measures for people’s livelihood in various aspects, outlining a new picture of people’s livelihood development.
The construction of China under the rule of law escorts high-quality development. Equal protection of the legitimate rights and interests of all kinds of market players, punishment of crimes in the fields of food, finance, energy and resources in accordance with the law, and the release of opinions on optimizing the legal environment to promote the development and growth of the private economy… The two high reports bring more benefits to the confidence index.
Starting from spring, China sends confidence to the world –
"China’s two sessions have released a lot of important information, which is not only very important for China’s future development, but also of great significance to the sustainable development of the world." Today’s Russian International News Agency reporter Asai participated in the China Two Sessions for the first time to report, and the warm atmosphere of the conference made him quite excited.
China’s "two sessions time", the world’s "China time".
On the eve of the opening of the National Two Sessions, international monetary funds raised their expectations for China’s economic growth sharply, and international investment banks such as Goldman Sachs and Credit Suisse also raised their expectations, indicating that they are very confident in China’s economic recovery.
"I feel the enthusiasm and vitality of the Chinese people, and China is back on the track of rapid growth," said Evandro Carvalho, director of the Brazil-China Research Center at the Vargas Foundation in Brazil, who recently visited China.
With international media giving a vote of confidence in a target of around 5 per cent gross domestic product growth, the Wall Street Journal reported that China’s economy began the year of the rabbit on a bounce, raising the prospect of stronger global growth this year.
The government work report once again emphasized "greater efforts to attract and utilize foreign investment", a strong signal that many multinational companies are looking forward to. "Hundreds of American companies are eager to expand their business in China," said Craig Allen, president of the US-China Business Council.
China’s development benefits the world, and China’s development cannot be separated from the world.
Yu Shougen, president of the Korea-China Global Association, believes that the open economy advocated by China is a good way to get the global economy back on track and benefit the people of all countries. As a responsible major country, China is constantly striving to achieve win-win results through expanding cooperation.
Concentrate and work together in the same direction – practice the whole process of people’s *********, gather wisdom, seek good policies, and gather consensus, and inspire hundreds of millions of ******* sons and daughters to work together for the construction of a strong country and national rejuvenation
"I am very happy that as a member of the Jiangsu delegation of the new National People’s Congress, I will discuss the country with everyone." When attending the deliberation of the Jiangsu delegation on the afternoon of March 5, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader said cordially.
On January 19 this year, as a candidate nominated by the Central Committee, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader ran for election in Jiangsu and was elected to the 14th National People’s Congress by unanimous vote.

Six years ago, she quit her job and returned to the countryside from the city to explore digital field planting. Today, she is the chairperson of Yongxing Agricultural Machinery Professional Cooperative in Zhenjiang New District, Zhenjiang City, Jiangsu Province.
"Our young people and intellectuals should also flow in both directions. On the one hand, they have become new citizens in the process of urbanization, and on the other hand, there is a great demand for talents in the countryside. It is very good for comrades like Wei Qiao to go to the countryside!" During the exchange, the general secretary of the Supreme Leader praised Wei Qiao’s choice.
Whether it is new citizens, new farmers, or a new professional group, they are all present in the new National People’s Congress and the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference.
The deputies to the 14th National People’s Congress are widely representative, ensuring that all regions, ethnic groups, and all parties have an appropriate number of deputies. The proportion of front-line workers, farmers, professional and technical personnel, and women deputies in the total number of deputies has increased compared with the previous session.
The 14th National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference has added an environmental resources sector, with a total of 85 members, including leading party and government cadres in the field of environmental resources, scientific researchers in the field of ecological environmental protection, and heads of enterprises in the field of energy and resources, in line with the needs of promoting the construction of a beautiful China.
During the National Two Sessions, Wang Yongcheng, vice-chairperson of the China Association of the Blind, expressed his heart: "The party and the country attach great importance to the cause of the disabled, and have always paid attention to and cared about us. In forging a new journey, everyone is a participant and a builder. I can’t see a wonderful world, but I can make wonderful contributions."

This is a vivid practice of people’s democracy in the whole process.
In the temple of democracy in China, the leadership of the party, the people as the masters of the country, and the rule of law are organically unified, and the party’s position, the will of the state, and the will of the people are closely integrated.

When a member of the committee spoke, he talked about the development of emerging industries. The Supreme Leader General Secretary pointed out that for emerging industries, we must do a good job in overall planning, figure out how big the market is and where the risks lie, and prevent invincible and solitary forces from going deep, but in the end they were swept away and wiped out.
The general secretary turned his attention to the leading comrades of the central and state organs attending the meeting, and further emphasized that the national industrial policy must be prudent, and the formulation of industrial policies and the promotion of industrial development must be prudent. It is hoped that our new energy industry will not only seize the opportunity to follow the trend, but also coordinate the relationship between development and security.
Party and state leaders, ****, and staff of relevant departments gather together to collude ideas and discuss countermeasures around major issues. The national ** is an important platform for brainstorming and collective efforts.
Throughout the whole process of the National People’s Congress, the NPC delegation fully deliberated, the CPPCC sector discussed enthusiastically, the NPC deputies expressed their opinions, and the CPPCC members made suggestions.

The whole process of people’s democracy not only has a complete system and procedures, but also a complete participation in practice.
On March 13, the first session of the 14th National People’s Congress voted to pass a decision on amending the Legislative Law, adding the provision that "legislation should adhere to and develop people’s democracy throughout the process" to ensure that the voice of the people can be heard and the situation from the grassroots can be understood in all legislative activities and legislative links, and actively respond to the new demands and expectations of the people.

"From national legislation to community governance, the whole process of people’s democracy has been deeply integrated into everyone’s daily work and life, and we enjoy a broad, full, real, concrete, and effective democracy," Sheng Hong said.
Build consensus through democracy and enhance unity through consensus.
The convening of the National Two Sessions has effectively connected the expectations and voices of hundreds of millions of people to the top-level design and decision-making arrangements for the development of the party and the country.
The words of the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader at the CPPCC Joint Group Meeting were sonorous and powerful: "Only when all the people think and work together, work together in the same boat, unite as one, have the courage to fight and be good at fighting, can we continue to win new and greater victories."

Spring spread out, Taihang Mountain stone stand majestically, the Red Flag Canal water flow endlessly.

Unswervingly promote high-quality development, always adhere to the people first, better coordinate development and security, solidly advance the practice of "one country, two systems" and the great cause of national reunification, and strive to build a community with a shared future for mankind…
On the new journey, it is a good step to build a modern socialist country in an all-round way. The National Two Sessions are a mobilization meeting to unify thinking, gather strength, and overcome difficulties.
Facing the spring light, take advantage of the momentum.
Adhere to reform and innovation, strive to be the first to stand out –
On March 10, the State Council’s institutional reform plan was passed by a vote at the first session of the 14th National People’s Congress.
The institutional reform of the State Council is an important task for the reform of party and state institutions, focusing on the optimization and adjustment of institutional responsibilities in key areas such as science and technology, financial supervision, data management, rural revitalization, intellectual property rights, and aging work.
Re-establish the Ministry of Science and Technology, establish the State Financial Supervision Administration, establish the National Data Bureau, deepen the reform of the local financial supervision system, optimize the responsibilities of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, and improve the work system for the elderly…
Deputy Chen Huiqing, mayor of Zhuzhou City, Hunan Province, believes that the reform plan is highly targeted, powerful, and involves a wide range of areas, and has focused on solving some difficult issues of great significance and social concern. It is the need for development, the hope of the grassroots, and the aspiration of the people. It will have an important impact on economic and social development.
This year is the 45th year of reform and opening up, and the National Two Sessions have played a strong voice that reform will not stop and opening up will not stop.
When the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader participated in the review of the Jiangsu delegation, he pointed out that in accordance with the requirements of building a high-level socialist market economic system and promoting high-level opening up, we should further promote reform in key areas, coordinate the construction of a modern infrastructure system and a high-standard market system, and steadily expand institutional opening up.
In the first month of this year, our country’s actual use of foreign capital increased by 14.5% year-on-year, continuing to become a hot spot for foreign investment and business. In the first two months of this year, the total value of our country’s merchandise trade exports increased by 0.9% year-on-year, setting a record high for the same period.
"Reform and opening up is the source of vitality for China’s development and progress in the current era," said Huang Maoxing, vice president of the Fujian Academy of Social Sciences. Continuing to comprehensively deepen reform and unswervingly expand opening up can further release the momentum of innovation and entrepreneurship in the whole society, allowing us to continuously gain advantages, win the initiative, and win the future.
Carry forward the fighting spirit and insist that Aoyama will not relax –
"In the face of profound and complex changes in the international and domestic environment, we must remain calm, maintain resolve, seek progress while maintaining stability, act positively, be united and have the courage to fight."
This important conclusion made by the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader when he participated in the CPPCC Joint Committee provides a scientific epistemology and methodology for effectively responding to risks and challenges and winning new and greater victories on the new journey.
Deal with difficulties and dangers, overcome obstacles; grasp the times and trends, and move forward bravely.
Wan Buyan, a representative of the National People’s Congress and a professor at Hunan University of Science and Technology, and his team adhere to the concept of "where the country lags behind others is the direction of our efforts", facing the country’s major scientific and technological needs, and bravely climbing the peak of science and technology, so that the key core technologies of deep-sea resources and geological drilling are firmly in the hands of the Chinese themselves.
"We Chinese have the ability and ambition, and if someone wants to hold our neck, we can’t," Wan Buyan said.
The more complex the situation, the more arduous the task, the more we must maintain strategic resolve and persevere in handling our own affairs.
During the National Two Sessions, the Supreme Leader General Secretary stressed that whether we can build a modern socialist country as scheduled depends on technological self-reliance.
"To achieve high-level technological self-reliance and self-reliance means that when the motherland needs it, you can use it if you want, and you can do it if you want," said Tang Changhong, the chief model designer of Aviation Industry Corporation of China, proudly.
Keep a fighting attitude, the more dangerous the more forward –
"Let the children go to a good school nearby, find a good hospital to see a doctor, and there is a good ecological environment in the village…" During the 2019 National Two Sessions, Li Liancheng, the party branch secretary of Xixinzhuang Village, Puyang County, Henan Province, told the top leader and general secretary of the eight dreams of farmers.
Dreams are gradually becoming reality, and Li Liancheng, who was re-elected to the National People’s Congress, told the ninth dream this year: the dream of technology to help rural rejuvenation.
How did the new dream become a reality? "It’s all done, just take the villagers to work hard, and happier days are still ahead," Li Liancheng said.
Only hard work can achieve great things, and only hard work can make dreams come true.
On the new journey, we are confronted with a challenging international environment and arduous domestic tasks of reform, development, and stability. Risks and challenges will only increase and become more severe.
To anchor new goals and complete new tasks, only by striving.
From the "first city in modern China" that started with textiles to today’s "trillion-GDP city", manufacturing is the distinct base color of Nantong, Jiangsu. Representative Wu Xinming, mayor of Nantong, said that we will insist on rejuvenating the city with industry and strengthening the city with manufacturing. We will strengthen the investment promotion and expansion, science and technology empower quality, strengthen the chain structure, and comprehensively build a solid foundation for high-quality development.
On March 11, the "Striver" all-sea deep-manned submersible successfully completed the international first manned deep-diving scientific expedition mission around Oceania.

From the "Jiaolong" to the "Deep Sea Warrior" and then to the "Fighter", China’s manned deep diving has continued to break through. Ye Cong, the chief designer of the all-sea deep manned submersible of China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation Co., Ltd., is full of ambition. "Facing the major needs of the country, let the larger-scale and stronger performance deep diving equipment serve the national mission, and the’Fighter ‘will report."
Hoping for the future, the road is broad.
Embarking on a new journey and taking great strides in the spring breeze, the people of all ethnic groups in the country will more closely unite around the Party Central Committee with the supreme leader as the core, strengthen historical self-confidence, enhance historical initiative, adhere to integrity and innovation, maintain strategic resolve, carry forward the spirit of struggle, and have the courage to overcome difficulties.
