Guiding Youth with Marxist Scientific Theory

When the younger generation has ideals, capability, and a sense of responsibility, the country has a future and the nation has hope. Marxism is the fundamental guiding ideology for building the Party and the country, and for rejuvenating the Party and the country. On the new journey of the New Era, it is essential to guide youth with Marxist scientific theory, to unite and rally the vast majority of young people to write a chapter of youth that bravely shoulders responsibility for Chinese-path modernization.

青年一代有理想、有本领、有担当，国家就有前途，民族就有希望。马克思主义是我们立党立国、兴党兴国的根本指导思想，新时代新征程，必须以马克思主义科学理论引领青年，团结凝聚广大青年奋力书写为中国式现代化挺膺担当的青春篇章。

I. Guiding youth with Marxist scientific theory is the strength of a Marxist political party in conducting youth work

一、以马克思主义科学理论引领青年，是马克思主义政党做好青年工作的优势所在

Youth represent the direction of social development and also bear the mission of promoting social progress. The ideological state of the younger generation determines the overall spiritual outlook of society in the future. General Secretary Xi Jinping has pointed out: “Marxism has always been the guiding ideology of our Party and country, and it is a powerful ideological weapon for us to understand the world, grasp laws, pursue truth, and transform the world.” [1]1 Xi Jinping, “Speech at the Commemoration of the 200th Anniversary of the Birth of Karl Marx,” May 4, 2018. Marxist scientific theory provides sufficient ideological nourishment and spiritual motivation for the growth and development of youth, demonstrating unique theoretical advantages and powerful ideological force.

青年代表着社会发展的方向，也肩负着推动社会进步的使命，青年一代的思想状况决定了社会未来的整体精神风貌。习近平总书记指出：“马克思主义始终是我们党和国家的指导思想，是我们认识世界、把握规律、追求真理、改造世界的强大思想武器”。马克思主义科学理论为青年成长发展提供充足的思想养分与精神动力，展示出独特的理论优势与强大的思想伟力。

Using Marxist scientific theory to guide youth is a clear proposition of Marxist political parties. Guiding youth with scientific theory is a distinctive hallmark that distinguishes Marxist political parties from bourgeois political parties. Bourgeois political parties often advocate “freedom” as a concept that transcends class and history, ostensibly proclaiming freedom of thought and refraining from guiding youth with a specific ideology, while in fact using various covert propaganda methods to transmit bourgeois values to youth. Marxist political parties, by contrast, explicitly state that they must guide youth with Marxist scientific theory, helping youth master a scientific worldview and methodology, and thereby participate in the glorious cause of “working for the interests of the vast majority.” Marx believed that scientific and rational education and guidance are an important means for youth to resist the erosion of harmful ideological trends and thereby establish historical consciousness. Lenin placed great emphasis on the theoretical guidance of youth, stressing that “the Youth League and all youth who want to move toward communism should study communism,” [2]2 V. I. Lenin, “The Tasks of the Youth Leagues,” October 2, 1920. as this is the ideological guarantee necessary for building a communist society. Comrade Mao Zedong attached great importance to guiding youth ideologically, emphasizing: “Whether intellectuals or young students, all should study hard. In addition to studying their specialties, they must make progress in thought and also in politics. This requires studying Marxism and studying current affairs and politics.” [3]3 Mao Zedong, “On the Correct Handling of Contradictions Among the People,” February 27, 1957. General Secretary Xi Jinping has stressed: “The entire Party must treat youth work as a strategic task, arm youth with the Party’s scientific theory, inspire youth with the Party’s original aspiration and founding mission, act as confidants of young friends, enthusiasts of youth work, and guides for the youth masses.” [4]4 Xi Jinping, “Report to the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China,” October When a Marxist political party guides and arms youth with Marxist scientific theory, it is essentially enabling youth to master the ideological weapon for understanding and transforming the world. Therefore, Marxist political parties can truly unite and win over youth.

用马克思主义科学理论引领青年是马克思主义政党的鲜明主张。以科学的理论引领青年是马克思主义政党区别于资产阶级政党的显著标志。资产阶级政党往往鼓吹超阶级、超历史的“自由”观念，表面宣称思想自由，不针对青年展开特定意识形态的引领，实际上利用各种隐性的宣教手段向青年传递资产阶级的价值观念。马克思主义政党则旗帜鲜明地指出，要以马克思主义的科学理论引领青年，帮助青年掌握科学的世界观与方法论，进而参与到“为绝大多数人谋利益”的光辉事业中。马克思认为科学合理的教育引领，是青年人抵抗不良思潮侵蚀进而建立历史自觉的重要途径。列宁高度重视青年的理论引领工作，他强调，“青年团和所有想走向共产主义的青年都应该学习共产主义”，这是建设共产主义社会所必需的思想保障。毛泽东同志高度重视从思想上引领青年，他强调：“不论是知识分子，还是青年学生，都应该努力学习。除了学习专业之外，在思想上要有所进步，政治上也要有所进步，这就需要学习马克思主义，学习时事政治。”习近平总书记强调：“全党要把青年工作作为战略性工作来抓，用党的科学理论武装青年，用党的初心使命感召青年，做青年朋友的知心人、青年工作的热心人、青年群众的引路人。”马克思主义政党对青年进行马克思主义科学理论引领和武装，本质上是让青年掌握认识世界和改造世界的思想武器。因此，马克思主义政党能够真正团结和赢得青年。

Marxist scientific theory helps youth establish a firm political stance. As a doctrine concerning the complete emancipation of the world’s proletariat and all humanity, Marxism created for the first time an ideological system through which people achieve their own liberation, and it continuously demonstrates its truth in the great practice of socialism. Over the past century and more, Chinese Communists have consistently upheld the glorious banner of Marxism, uniting and leading the people of all ethnic groups across the country to achieve great victories in socialist revolution, construction, and reform, and continuously opening up new realms in adapting Marxism to the Chinese context and the needs of the times. History and practice have fully proven that the reason the Communist Party of China can succeed and the reason socialism with Chinese characteristics can work is, ultimately, that Marxism works, and that Marxism adapted to the Chinese context and the needs of the times works. Marxist theory can help the younger generation establish the lofty ideal of communism, strengthen the common ideal of socialism with Chinese characteristics, strengthen their political conviction of listening to the Party and following the Party, guide youth to grasp the correct direction for growth and development, and thereby strengthen their political stance of unremitting struggle for the cause of the Party and the people, promoting their growth into well-rounded socialist builders and successors.

马克思主义科学理论帮助青年树立坚定的政治立场。作为关于全世界无产阶级和全人类彻底解放的学说，马克思主义第一次创立了人民实现自身解放的思想体系，并在社会主义的伟大实践中不断昭示着自身的真理力量。百余年来，中国共产党人始终坚持高举马克思主义的光辉旗帜，团结带领全国各族人民夺取了社会主义革命、建设、改革的伟大胜利，不断开辟马克思主义中国化时代化新境界。历史和实践充分证明，中国共产党为什么能，中国特色社会主义为什么好，归根到底是马克思主义行，是中国化时代化的马克思主义行。马克思主义理论能够帮助青年一代树立共产主义远大理想，坚定中国特色社会主义共同理想，坚定听党话、跟党走的政治信念，引导青年把握成长成才的正确方向，进而坚定为党和人民事业不懈奋斗的政治立场，促进他们成长为全面发展的社会主义建设者和接班人。

Marxist scientific theory helps youth master scientific methods of thinking. Marxism is a scientific theoretical system that includes Marxist philosophy, Marxist political economy, and scientific socialism. Marxism creatively reveals the laws of the development of human society. The scientific worldview and methodology of dialectical materialism and historical materialism contained within it, the principles of the materiality of the world and its laws of development, human society and its laws of development, the essence of cognition and its laws of development, as well as the positions, viewpoints, and methods that run through them, are all scientific ideological weapons for understanding and transforming the world. The process by which youth learn and master Marxist scientific theory is precisely the process of cultivating their own historical thinking, dialectical thinking, systematic thinking, and innovative thinking, and thereby mastering a scientific mode of thinking.

马克思主义科学理论帮助青年掌握科学的思维方法。马克思主义是包括马克思主义哲学、马克思主义政治经济学、科学社会主义在内的科学理论体系。马克思主义创造性地揭示了人类社会发展规律，其中蕴含的辩证唯物主义和历史唯物主义的科学世界观和方法论，世界的物质性及其发展规律、人类社会及其发展规律、认识的本质及其发展规律等原理，以及贯穿其中的立场、观点、方法等，都是科学认识世界、改造世界的科学思想武器。青年人学习掌握马克思主义科学理论的过程，就是培育自身历史思维、辩证思维、系统思维、创新思维，进而掌握科学思维方式的过程。

Marxist scientific theory helps youth shape noble moral character and sound personality. Marxism has a distinct practical character, committed at the collective level to the cause of the liberation of all humanity, and at the individual level to the realization of the free and comprehensive development of each person. This scientific theory marks the intersection of ideals, beliefs, and life pursuits for young people. As the young Marx said, “Then we can enjoy not a miserable, limited, selfish pleasure, but our happiness will belong to millions of people.” [5]5 Xi Jinping, “Speech at the Celebration of the 100th Anniversary of the Founding of the Communist Youth League of China,” May 10, 2022. Lofty ideals and beliefs are the lighthouse for youth’s growth and progress; firm life pursuits are the driving force for youth’s struggle and advancement. Studying Marxist scientific theory will enable youth to consciously integrate their own life pursuits with the destiny of the country and the nation, thereby shaping their own complete and noble moral character and sound personality.

马克思主义科学理论帮助青年塑造高尚的品德、健全的人格。马克思主义具有鲜明的实践品格，在集体层面致力于全人类的解放事业，在个人层面致力于实现每个人的自由全面发展。这一科学的理论为青年人标注了理想信念与人生追求的交汇坐标。正如青年马克思所说，“那时我们所享受的就不是可怜的、有限的、自私的乐趣，我们的幸福将属于千百万人”。崇高的理想信念是青年成长进步的灯塔，坚定的人生追求是青年拼搏前进的动力。学习马克思主义科学理论，将使得青年自觉将自己的人生追求同国家与民族的命运紧密结合起来，进而塑造出自身完善高尚的品德和健全的人格。

II. Building a modern socialist country in all respects requires doing a good job of guiding youth ideologically

二、全面建设社会主义现代化国家，需要做好青年思想引领工作

China has already embarked on a new journey of building a modern socialist country in all respects. The younger generation faces a completely new historical orientation and tasks of the times. Their own values are influenced by factors such as the surrounding environment, presenting many new situations and changes. This requires that we must persist in guiding youth with Marxist scientific theory, accumulating youthful strength for the great cause of building a strong country and rejuvenating the nation.

中国已经迈上全面建设社会主义现代化国家新征程，青年一代面临着全新的历史方位和时代任务，自身价值观念受周围环境等因素的影响，呈现许多新情况、新变化。这要求我们必须坚持用马克思主义科学理论引领青年，为强国建设、民族复兴伟业积蓄青春力量。

Youth are the fresh force for advancing the great cause of building a strong country and rejuvenating the nation. General Secretary Xi Jinping has pointed out: “To achieve the grand goal of building a strong country and rejuvenating the nation, the entire Party, the entire people of all ethnic groups, including the vast number of youth, need to unite as one, go all out, and continue to climb over ridges and tackle difficulties.” [6]6 Xi Jinping, “Speech at the Conference on Ideological and Political Work in Colleges and Universities,” December 7, 2016. Today’s youth are in the golden period of learning and growth. By the middle of this century, when China is fully built into a great modern socialist country, they will be in their prime, will inevitably participate in the entire process, and will bear heavy responsibilities in all industries, fields, and fronts. Currently, a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation is deepening, and international competition is becoming increasingly fierce. It is especially necessary to give full play to the role of the vast number of youth as a fresh force, injecting a continuous and vigorous force into Chinese-path modernization and providing strategic support for winning the future. The more grand the goal, the more arduous the task, the more it requires the younger generation to closely follow the Party in carrying out the great struggle with many new historical features. This requires that we must arm youth with Marxist scientific theory, help youth build a solid foundation of ideals and convictions, establish lofty life ideals and strong willpower, inspire the vast number of youth to enhance their sense of historical responsibility and mission, ignite the youthful passion of “a strong country has me,” and bravely act as vanguards and commandos in the great cause of building a strong country and rejuvenating the nation.

青年是推进强国建设、民族复兴伟业的生力军。习近平总书记指出：“要实现强国建设、民族复兴宏伟目标，需要全党全国各族人民包括广大青年团结一致、全力以赴，继续爬坡过坎、攻坚克难。”现在的青年正处于学习和成长的黄金时期，到21世纪中叶全面建成社会主义现代化强国时，他们年富力强，必将全程参与其中并在各行各业、各个领域、各条战线担当重任。当前，新一轮科技革命和产业变革深入发展，国际竞争日趋激烈，尤其需要发挥广大青年生力军作用，为中国式现代化注入源源不断蓬勃力量、提供制胜未来战略支撑。目标越是宏伟，任务越是艰巨，越需要青年一代紧跟党进行具有许多新的历史特点的伟大斗争。这就要求我们必须用马克思主义科学理论武装青年，帮助青年筑牢理想信念之基，确立崇高的人生理想与坚强的意志品质，激励广大青年增强历史责任感和使命感，激发强国有我的青春激情，在强国建设、民族复兴伟业中勇当先锋队、突击队。

Youth need the scientific guidance of Marxist theory to distinguish right from wrong. Since the 18th National Congress of the CPC, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core has attached great importance to and shown warm concern for the younger generation. From the strategic height of ensuring that the cause of the Party and the state has successors and that the red river of the country never changes its color, it has comprehensively strengthened the Party’s political leadership over youth, persistently armed youth with Marxist scientific theory, especially the Party’s innovative theory, and guided the broad masses of youth to establish a correct worldview, outlook on life, and value system, making them an important force for the continuous and vigorous transmission of socialism with Chinese characteristics. At the same time, youth’s ideological concepts have become more active, group differences more pronounced, and they are easily influenced by various social trends of thought, inevitably encountering ideological confusion in areas such as ideal and reality, doctrine and problem, egoism and altruism, the small self and the big self, and the nation and the world. Particularly with the rapid development of the internet, the struggle between us and hostile forces over the ideological positions of youth has become unprecedentedly fierce, and the risks and challenges of ideological penetration faced by youth groups are increasing day by day. These circumstances indicate that the task of guiding youth thought and uniting youth hearts has become more arduous, and ideological and political education and value guidance work must advance with the times. This requires arming youth with Marxist scientific theory, guiding them to strive to master the worldview and methodology of this scientific thought, to be adept at using the standpoints, viewpoints, and methods running through it to analyze problems, to learn to grasp the mainstream amidst the blending and confrontation of various trends of thought, to seize the essence amidst complex and diverse phenomena, to forge a discerning eye that distinguishes right from wrong and resists penetration, and to consciously resist the influence and erosion of Western capitalist ideology and harmful social trends of thought, thereby firmly establishing the correct political direction; guiding youth to integrate their personal striving and struggle into the overall development of the country, to scientifically understand and positively approach relationships such as ideal and reality, individual and collective, and the small self and the big self, thereby achieving a harmonious unity of contributing to society and realizing the self, and establishing correct life goals in the historical tide of building a strong country and rejuvenating the nation.

青年需要马克思主义理论科学指导、明辨是非。党的十八大以来，以习近平同志为核心的党中央高度重视、亲切关怀青年一代，站在保持党和国家事业后继有人、红色江山永不变色的战略高度，全面加强党对青年的政治引领，坚持不懈以马克思主义科学理论尤其是党的创新理论武装青年，引导广大青年树立正确的世界观、人生观、价值观，成为推动中国特色社会主义事业薪火相传、生生不息的重要力量。同时，青年思想观念更加活跃，群体差异更加明显，易受形形色色社会思潮影响，不可避免会在理想和现实、主义和问题、利己和利他、小我和大我、民族和世界等方面遇到思想困惑。特别是随着互联网迅猛发展，我们同敌对势力就青年思想阵地展开的斗争空前激烈，青年群体遭受意识形态渗透的风险和挑战日益增大。这些情况表明引领青年思想、凝聚青年人心的任务更加艰巨，思想政治教育和价值引领工作必须与时俱进。这就要求用马克思主义科学理论武装青年，引导青年努力掌握这一科学思想的世界观和方法论，善于运用贯穿其中的立场观点方法分析问题，学会在各种思潮交融交锋中把握主流，在纷繁复杂的现象中抓住本质，炼就明辨是非、抵御渗透的火眼金睛，自觉抵制西方资本主义意识形态和不良社会思潮的影响侵蚀，从而坚定正确政治方向；引导青年将个人的进取奋斗融入国家的发展大局，科学认识、积极对待理想与现实、个人与集体、小我与大我等关系，从而实现奉献社会与实现自我的和谐统一，在强国建设、民族复兴的历史潮流中确立正确的人生目标。

III. Persist in Arming Youth with Marxist Scientific Theory, Innovate the Practical Path of Guiding Youth Work

三、 坚持以马克思主义科学理论武装青年，创新做好引领青年工作的实践路径

A nation cannot be at the forefront of the times for a single moment without the guidance of scientific theory. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out in his speech at the commemoration of the centenary of the May Fourth Movement: “Young people in the New Era should enhance their sense of urgency in learning, study assiduously and tirelessly, and strive to learn Marxist standpoints, viewpoints, and methods.” [5]5 Xi Jinping, “Speech at the Celebration of the 100th Anniversary of the Founding of the Communist Youth League of China,” May 10, 2022. At the critical moment when the entire Party and the people of all ethnic groups in the country are comprehensively advancing the great cause of building a strong country and rejuvenating the nation through Chinese-path modernization, we must grasp the situation of the times and the characteristics of youth, persist in guiding youth with Marxist scientific theory, cultivate the broad masses of youth into a fresh force for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and contribute youthful strength in advancing Chinese-path modernization.

一个民族要走在时代前列，就一刻不能没有科学理论的指引。习近平总书记在纪念“五四运动”100周年大会上的讲话中指出：“新时代中国青年要增强学习紧迫感，如饥似渴、孜孜不倦学习，努力学习马克思主义立场观点方法。”在全党全国各族人民以中国式现代化全面推进强国建设、民族复兴伟业的关键时刻，我们必须把握时代形势与青年特点，坚持以马克思主义科学理论引领青年，将广大青年培养成为民族复兴伟业的生力军，在推进中国式现代化中贡献青春力量。

Improve ideological and political courses, implement the project of fostering virtue and nurturing people for the New Era. Ideological and political courses are key courses for implementing the fundamental task of fostering virtue and nurturing people, and also an important channel for enhancing the leading power of ideology and politics. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized, “Continuously strengthen and improve

上好思政课，实施新时代立德树人工程。思政课是落实立德树人根本任务的关键课程，也是提升思政引领力的重要渠道。习近平总书记强调，“不断加强和改进新时代学校思想政治教育，教育引导青少年学生坚定马克思主义信仰、中国特色社会主义信念、中华民族伟大复兴信心，立报国强国大志向、做挺膺担当奋斗者”。青少年阶段是人生的“拔节孕穗期”，最需要精心引导和栽培。把思政课办得有声有色、有滋有味，就是要有鲜活的素材、灵活的方式、活跃的氛围，有情趣吸引、情感相融、情怀陶冶。应根据青少年身心发展规律、不同阶段的发展特征和需求层次，明确各学段相互衔接的教学目标、教学内容，推动大中小学思政课一体化建设、内涵式发展。通过思政教育启迪心智，厚植对马克思主义科学理论的信仰。利用人工智能、大数据打造灵活弹性、人机协同的评价方式，为思政课教师提供教学反馈和评价建议，使思政课教学更加精准对接学生需求。引导青年学生通过实地调研、理论宣讲、志愿服务，走进改革前沿、科研一线、工矿企业、农村乡镇和城市社区，打造“行走的思政课”，让他们深切感悟马克思主义科学理论尤其是党的创新理论的实践伟力。

Improve the institutional mechanisms to form a work pattern for guiding youth with scientific theory. Youth is a period when people gradually establish a systematic worldview, outlook on life, and value system; therefore, it is necessary to follow the objective laws of youth ideological development and construct a systematic pattern of theoretical guidance for youth. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized: “We must establish and improve a work pattern in which all departments, under the leadership of the Party, jointly manage the youth development cause.” [5]5 Xi Jinping, “Speech at the Celebration of the 100th Anniversary of the Founding of the Communist Youth League of China,” May 10, 2022. Party committees at all levels, schools, Party schools, the Communist Youth League, and other social organizations should coordinate their policies and consolidate the main responsibility for guiding youth. Party committees at all levels should play the core role of political leadership, adhere to the principle of the Party managing youth work, improve the institutional mechanism of Party building leading League building, and incorporate ideological guidance for youth into the overall work pattern of the Party committee. Schools should promote the construction of a systematic theoretical teaching system, clearly explain the theoretical connotations of Marxism in the curriculum, clarify the ideological implications of the Party’s innovative theories, guide students to grasp the developmental context and theoretical essence of Marxist theory, and help youth cultivate the thinking method of using theory to analyze and solve problems through discussion, achieving “true learning, true understanding, true belief, and true application.” Party schools and League schools should fulfill their responsibilities as high grounds for theoretical education, continuously innovate methods of theoretical propaganda, and use scholarship to explain politics well. The Communist Youth League organizations should shoulder the main force role in guiding youth, formulate ideological guidance plans for youth groups by age and type, comprehensively utilize various guidance models such as the Youth Marxist Project, League school training, and practical education, and continuously innovate the ideological guidance system for youth. Social organizations should actively respond to the needs of the country, deeply integrating theoretical guidance with career development and social participation. Party organizations at all levels should strengthen their awareness of positions and jointly prevent and resolve potential ideological risks among youth groups.

完善体制机制，形成科学理论引领青年的工作格局。青年时期是人逐步建立系统的世界观、人生观、价值观的时期，因而必须遵循青年思想发展的客观规律，为青年构建起系统的理论引领格局。习近平总书记强调：“要建立和完善在党的领导下各部门齐抓共管青年发展事业的工作格局”。各级党委、学校、党校、共青团，其他社会组织等应当协同施策，压实引领青年的主体责任。各级党委要发挥政治领导核心作用，坚持党管青年工作原则，完善党建带团建的制度机制，将针对青年的思想引领纳入党委总体工作格局。学校应当推动构建系统化的理论教学体系，在课程中将马克思主义的理论内涵讲清楚，将党的创新理论的思想意蕴讲明白，引导学生把握马克思主义理论的发展脉络与理论精髓，在研讨中帮助青年养成用理论分析解决问题的思维方法，做到“真学、真懂、真信、真用”。党校团校应当履行理论教育高地的职责，不断创新理论宣讲方式，用学术讲好政治。共青团组织要肩负起引领青年的主力军作用，针对青年群体分年龄、分类型地制定思想引领方案，综合运用青年马克思主义工程、团校培训、实践育人等多种引领模式，不断创新针对青年的思想引领体系。社会组织要积极响应国家所需，将理论引领与职业发展、社会参与深度融合。各级党组织应强化阵地意识，共同防范化解青年群体中潜在的意识形态风险。

Innovate discourse expression, using methods that youth like to hear and see to explain theory deeply and vividly. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized, “We must grasp the characteristics of youth and be good at using language and methods that youth find easy to accept to expound the Party’s propositions.” [6]6 Xi Jinping, “Speech at the Conference on Ideological and Political Work in Colleges and Universities,” December 7, 2016. In today’s era of in-depth development of the new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation, the younger generation has exhibited thinking traits and behavioral characteristics different from previous youth groups. Therefore, the work of theoretical guidance must refer to the new characteristics of contemporary youth thought and innovate methods of discourse expression. We should conform to the laws of information dissemination in the Internet era, build a new media communication matrix covering youth online communities such as Douyin, Xiaohongshu, Bilibili, and Zhihu, and continuously produce online cultural products with height, depth, warmth, and reason to guide youth, making theoretical guidance both “innovative in form” and “entering the heart.” At the same time, guided by mainstream values, regulate the algorithmic logic that prioritizes traffic, help youth step out of the “information cocoon,” and consolidate value consensus among youth groups. We should grasp the needs and preferences of youth in the New Era and innovate models of ideological guidance. In educational guidance, focus on discourse expression methods with greater affinity, while promoting mainstream values, also take into account the personalized value demands of youth groups, and launch more participatory and immersive carriers of theoretical guidance. For example, through participatory role-playing, help youth groups learn theoretical knowledge, organize activities such as “red script-killing” related to Party history, and use methods that youth like to hear and see to explain theoretical knowledge deeply and vividly. [7]7 “Red script-killing” (红色剧本杀) refers to a role-playing murder mystery game themed around the history of the Chinese Communist Party, used as an immersive educational tool.

创新话语表达，用青年人喜闻乐见的方式将理论讲深讲活。习近平总书记强调，“要把握青年特点，善于用青年易于接受的语言和方式阐述党的主张”。在新一轮科技革命和产业变革深入发展的今天，青年一代展现出了不同于以往青年群体的思维特质与行为特点。因此，理论引领工作必须参照当下青年思想的全新特点，创新话语表达方式。应当顺应互联网时代的信息传播规律，构建起覆盖抖音、小红书、哔哩哔哩、知乎等青年网络社区的新媒体传播矩阵，不断生产出有高度、有深度、有温度、有道理的网络文化产品引领青年，使得理论引领既“走新”又“进心”。同时，以主流价值为导向，规制流量至上的算法逻辑，帮助青年走出“信息茧房”，凝聚青年群体价值共识。应当把握新时代青年的需求偏好，创新思想引领模式。在教育引导中注重更具亲和力的话语表达方式，在宣传介绍主流价值的同时兼顾青年群体个性化的价值诉求，推出更多参与式、沉浸式的理论引领载体。例如，通过参与式的角色演绎，帮助青年群体学习理论知识，组织与党史相关的“红色剧本杀”等活动，用青年人喜闻乐见的方式把理论知识讲深讲活。

The future belongs to youth, and hope is placed in youth. In the historical process of continuously advancing the great cause of building a strong country and national rejuvenation, Chinese Communists continuously open up new realms for adapting Marxism to the Chinese context and the needs of the times. This requires us to continuously guide youth with Marxist scientific theory, continuously use Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era to forge souls and educate people, inspire the vast number of youth to heed the call of the Party and the people, and strive to write a splendid chapter of youth.

未来属于青年，希望寄予青年。在不断推进强国建设、民族复兴伟业的历史进程中，中国共产党人不断开辟马克思主义中国化时代化的新境界，这要求我们不断用马克思主义科学理论引领青年，不断用习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想铸魂育人，激励广大青年听从党和人民的召唤，奋力书写精彩青春篇章。
