1. Advancing the Great Rejuvenation of the Chinese Nation Through Sustained Struggle

1.在接续奋斗中推进中华民族伟大复兴

General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: “Comrade Mao Zedong’s life was one of unremitting struggle for national prosperity, national revitalization, and the happiness of the people.” Chinese-path modernization is the fruit of long-term practical exploration by the Communist Party of China and the Chinese people. As the great founder of China’s socialist modernization cause, Comrade Mao Zedong spent his life seeking to achieve modernization in a country with a very low level of social productive forces. Facing the backward conditions of old China as a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society, Comrade Mao Zedong and other veteran revolutionaries led our Party, guiding the Chinese people through bloody struggles and unyielding efforts, found the correct path of the new-democratic revolution, completed the historical tasks of opposing imperialism and feudalism, established the People’s Republic of China, instituted the basic system of socialism, advanced socialist construction, achieved the most extensive and profound social transformation in the history of the Chinese nation, attained great achievements in socialist construction, laid the fundamental political prerequisite and institutional foundation for all development and progress in contemporary China, and accumulated important experience in socialist construction in a country with a very low level of social productive forces. The great foundational contributions Comrade Mao Zedong and other veteran revolutionaries made to China’s socialist modernization cause will forever be recorded in the annals of the Chinese nation and forever remembered in the hearts of all Chinese people.

习近平总书记指出：“毛泽东同志的一生是为国家富强、民族振兴、人民幸福而不懈奋斗的一生。”中国式现代化是中国共产党和中国人民长期实践探索的成果。毛泽东同志作为中国社会主义现代化建设事业的伟大奠基者，一生都在为中国这样一个社会生产力水平十分落后的国家实现现代化而努力求索。面对旧中国半殖民地半封建社会的落后状况，毛泽东同志等老一辈革命家领导我们党，带领中国人民浴血奋战、百折不挠，找到了新民主主义革命的正确道路，完成了反帝反封建的历史任务，建立了中华人民共和国，确立了社会主义基本制度，推进社会主义建设，实现了中华民族有史以来最为广泛而深刻的社会变革，取得了社会主义建设的伟大成就，为当代中国的一切发展进步奠定了根本政治前提和制度基础，积累起在中国这样一个社会生产力水平十分落后的国家进行社会主义建设的重要经验。毛泽东同志等老一辈革命家为中国社会主义现代化建设事业作出的伟大奠基性贡献永载中华民族史册，永远铭记在全体中国人民的心中。

The great practices of revolution, construction, and reform led by our Party constitute a historical process of sustained struggle, a complete undertaking of saving the nation, rejuvenating the nation, strengthening the nation, and ultimately achieving the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. The tremendous revolutionary and construction achievements led by Comrade Mao Zedong and other veteran revolutionaries, which brought the Chinese people together, not only provided a solid foundation and institutional guarantee for the cause of Chinese-path modernization—enabling New China, which initially “could not produce a single car, a single airplane, a single tank, or a single tractor,” to establish an independent and relatively complete industrial system and national economic system, and to achieve breakthroughs in cutting-edge national defense technologies such as the “two bombs, one satellite” [1]1 “Two bombs, one satellite” refers to China’s successful development of atomic bombs, hydrogen bombs, and artificial satellites in the 1960s and 1970s. and nuclear submarines—thereby completely freeing China from the danger of being “expelled from the ranks of nations” [2]2 “Expelled from the ranks of nations” is a phrase used by Mao Zedong in the 1950s to warn that if China did not catch up, it would be marginalized by the international community. and making it a major country with significant influence in the world, but also laid an important foundation for China to embark on the path of reform and opening up, create socialism with Chinese characteristics, and successfully advance and expand the path of Chinese-path modernization. Advancing the great cause of building a strong country and national rejuvenation on all fronts through Chinese-path modernization is the central task of the entire Party and the people of all ethnic groups in the country on the new journey of the New Era. This is the unfinished cause of Comrade Mao Zedong and other veteran revolutionaries, and it is the solemn historical responsibility of contemporary Chinese Communists. On the new journey of the New Era, we must firmly grasp the Party’s central task, inherit the historical aspirations of Comrade Mao Zedong and other veteran revolutionaries, carry forward the spirit of historical initiative, work together with concerted effort and struggle, and ensure that the great ship of the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation sails through wind and waves and advances steadily.

我们党领导的革命、建设、改革伟大实践，是一个接续奋斗的历史过程，是一项救国、兴国、强国，进而实现中华民族伟大复兴的完整事业。毛泽东同志等老一辈革命家带领中国人民取得的巨大革命和建设成就，不仅为中国式现代化事业提供了坚实基础和制度保障，使新中国从当初“一辆汽车、一架飞机、一辆坦克、一辆拖拉机都不能造”，到建立起独立的比较完整的工业体系和国民经济体系，再到取得“两弹一星”和核潜艇等国防尖端科技突破等，使中国彻底摆脱了被“开除球籍”的危险，成为在世界上有重要影响的大国，进而为中国走上改革开放之路、开创中国特色社会主义、成功推进和拓展中国式现代化道路奠定了重要基础。以中国式现代化全面推进强国建设、民族复兴伟业，是全党全国各族人民在新时代新征程的中心任务。这是毛泽东同志等老一辈革命家的未竟事业，是当代中国共产党人的庄严历史责任。新时代新征程，我们要牢牢把握党的中心任务，继承毛泽东同志等老一辈革命家的历史宏愿，发扬历史主动精神，齐心协力拼搏奋斗，确保中华民族伟大复兴号巨轮乘风破浪、行稳致远。

2. Chinese-Path Modernization Is Socialist Modernization Led by the Communist Party of China

2.中国式现代化是中国共产党领导的社会主义现代化

General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: “The Communist Party of China, personally founded by Comrade Mao Zedong, has continuously matured through revolutionary tempering, always staying at the forefront of the times, becoming the mainstay of the entire Chinese people, and the strong leading core of China’s revolution, construction, and reform.” Party leadership directly determines the fundamental direction, future destiny, and ultimate success or failure of Chinese-path modernization. In a country like China, where peasants constitute the majority of the population and the economy and culture are backward, how to build an advanced political party of the proletariat, how to lead the cause of revolution and construction, and how to arm the Party and the people’s army with proletarian ideology—these were the primary issues encountered in China’s revolution and construction. In the process of leading China’s revolution and construction, Comrade Mao Zedong always attached great importance to strengthening Party leadership and Party building, calling it a “great project,” and led the Chinese people in forging a great, glorious, and correct Communist Party of China. Comrade Mao Zedong closely integrated the Marxist-Leninist theory of Party building with the practice of the Communist Party of China’s own construction, always treating the strengthening of Party leadership as a major issue, emphasizing that “among the seven sectors—industry, agriculture, commerce, education, the military, government, and the Party—the Party exercises leadership over everything”; and stressing that “the Communist Party of China is the leading core of the entire Chinese people. Without such a core, the socialist cause cannot triumph.” As the principal founder of our Party, Comrade Mao Zedong always focused on strengthening all aspects of Party building, proposed the basic principle of building the Party ideologically, listed Party building as one of the three magic weapons [3]3 The “three magic weapons” of the Chinese Communist Party are the united front, armed struggle, and Party building, as formulated by Mao Zedong. and firmly grasped it, scientifically elucidated the relationship between Party building and the Party’s political line, strengthened Party building through rectification movements [4]4 Rectification movements (整风) were intra-Party campaigns to correct ideological and work-style deviations, notably the Yan’an Rectification Movement of 1942–1945., and actively explored a series of major principles and policies for governing the Party in power. All these provided valuable experience and intellectual wisdom for deeply exploring major issues such as what kind of Party to build in China, how to build it, and how to realize Party leadership, as well as how to continue building a strong and powerful Marxist governing Party in the great cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics.

习近平总书记指出：“毛泽东同志亲手缔造的中国共产党，在一次次革命性锻造中不断走向成熟，始终走在时代前列，成为全国人民的主心骨，成为中国革命、建设、改革事业的坚强领导核心。”党的领导直接关系中国式现代化的根本方向、前途命运、最终成败。在中国这样一个农民占人口多数、经济文化落后的国家，怎样建设无产阶级先进政党、怎样领导中国革命和建设事业，怎样用无产阶级思想武装党、武装人民军队，这是中国革命和建设遇到的首要问题。毛泽东同志在领导中国革命和建设的过程中，始终高度重视加强党的领导、加强党的建设，称其为“伟大的工程”，带领中国人民锻造了伟大光荣正确的中国共产党。毛泽东同志把马克思列宁主义建党学说同中国共产党的自身建设实践紧密结合起来，始终把加强党的领导作为重大问题来抓，强调“工、农、商、学、兵、政、党这七个方面，党是领导一切的”；强调“中国共产党是全中国人民的领导核心。没有这样一个核心，社会主义事业就不能胜利”。毛泽东同志作为我们党的主要缔造者，始终重视抓好党的各方面建设，提出思想建党的基本原则，把党的建设列为三大法宝之一紧紧抓住不放，科学阐明党的建设同党的政治路线的关系，通过整风加强党的建设，积极探索执政党建设一系列重大方针原则等，都为深入探索在中国建设一个什么样的党、怎样建设党以及怎样实现党的领导等重大问题，为在中国特色社会主义伟大事业中如何继续建设坚强有力的马克思主义执政党提供了宝贵经验和思想智慧。

The Party exercises leadership over everything in all sectors—the Party, the government, the military, the civilian population, and education, east, west, south, north, and center. The Party is the highest political leadership force. Comrade Mao Zedong, from a strategic height concerning the rise or fall of the Party’s cause, attached great importance to Party leadership and Party building, proposed and advocated the purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly, formulated disciplinary rules such as the “Three Main Rules of Discipline and the Eight Points for Attention” [5]5 The “Three Main Rules of Discipline and the Eight Points for Attention” were basic military and disciplinary codes for the People’s Liberation Army, first formulated by Mao Zedong in 1928., clearly opposed subjectivism, sectarianism, and stereotyped Party writing [6]6 Subjectivism, sectarianism, and stereotyped Party writing (党八股) were three target problems in the Yan’an Rectification Movement., called on the entire Party to keep in mind the “Two Musts” [7]7 The “Two Musts” are: “must remain modest and prudent, not arrogant or impetuous; must remain hardworking and thrifty, not extravagant or dissipated,” from Mao’s 1949 speech at the Second Plenary Session of the Seventh Central Committee., emphasized opposing bureaucracy and acting like a lord, preventing the decline of revolutionary will, and resolutely punishing corruption, thereby clarifying a series of important principles and policies for Party building and Party governance in specific historical stages. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that Party leadership determines the fundamental nature of Chinese-path modernization; only by unwaveringly upholding Party leadership can Chinese-path modernization have a bright future and flourish. To advance Chinese-path modernization on the new journey of the New Era, we must adhere to a series of glorious traditions and fine work styles of strengthening Party leadership and Party building, keep in mind the “Three Musts” [8]8 The “Three Musts” are: “must remain true to our original aspiration and founding mission, must remain modest and prudent and hardworking, and must have the courage to struggle and be good at struggle, persistently advance comprehensive and strict governance of the Party, implement the general requirements for Party building in the New Era, lead all aspects of Party building with political construction, improve the system for comprehensive and strict governance of the Party, and simultaneously advance the efforts to ensure that Party members do not dare to, cannot, and do not want to be corrupt [9], ensuring that our Party never changes its nature, color, or flavor, always maintaining the sobriety and determination to solve the unique problems of a large Party, building the Party to be stronger and more powerful, and ensuring that Chinese-path modernization cleaves through waves and advances steadily.

党政军民学，东西南北中，党是领导一切的。党是最高政治领导力量。毛泽东同志从事关党的事业兴衰成败的战略高度重视党的领导和党的建设，提出和倡导全心全意为人民服务的宗旨，制定“三大纪律八项注意”等纪律规矩，旗帜鲜明反对主观主义、宗派主义和党八股，号召全党牢记“两个务必”，强调反对官僚主义、做官当老爷，防止革命意志衰退，坚决惩治腐败等，明确了一定历史阶段党的建设和管党治党的一系列重要方针原则。习近平总书记指出，党的领导决定中国式现代化的根本性质，只有毫不动摇坚持党的领导，中国式现代化才能前景光明、繁荣兴盛。新时代新征程推进中国式现代化，必须坚持加强党的领导和党的建设的一系列光荣传统和优良作风，要牢记“三个务必”，持之以恒推进全面从严治党，落实新时代党的建设总要求，以党的政治建设统领党的建设各项工作，健全全面从严治党体系，一体推进不敢腐、不能腐、不想腐，确保我们党永远不变质、不变色、不变味，时刻保持解决大党独有难题的清醒和坚定，把党建设得更加坚强有力，确保中国式现代化劈波斩浪、行稳致远。

3. Chinese-Path Modernization Has Goals, Plans, and Strategies, and Will Surely Be Realized

3.中国式现代化有目标、有规划、有战略，一定会实现

General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: “Comrade Mao Zedong led the people in establishing an advanced socialist system. Only socialism could save China; only socialism could develop China.” Building a great modern socialist country and achieving the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation have been the grand goals our Party has tirelessly pursued for over a hundred years. From the First Five-Year Plan to the 14th Five-Year Plan, the consistent theme has been to build China into a modern socialist country. Comrade Mao Zedong, with profound thinking and a forward-looking vision, conducted unremitting explorations on how to achieve a great modern socialist country, making indelible historical contributions to laying the foundation for and successfully expanding China’s socialist modernization. In terms of construction goals, Comrade Mao Zedong pointed out: “The people of our country should have a long-term plan to strive, over several decades, to change our country’s backwardness in economy, science, and culture, and rapidly reach the world’s advanced level.” He also stated that the goal of the Chinese Communists “lies in building a new society and a new state for the Chinese nation,” and that the task of the Chinese working class is not only to struggle for the establishment of a new-democratic state but also to struggle for China’s industrialization and agricultural modernization, steadily transforming China from an agricultural country into an industrial country and building China into a great socialist country. In terms of construction planning, Comrade Mao Zedong led the formulation of the “Four Modernizations” plan implemented in two steps: the first step was to establish an independent and relatively complete industrial system and national economic system; the second step was to comprehensively realize the modernization of agriculture, industry, national defense, and science and technology. In terms of development strategy, Comrade Mao Zedong emphasized that China’s socialist modernization could only follow its own path and could not mechanically copy foreign experience; it must proceed from the basic national condition that China is a large agricultural country, take agriculture as the foundation, correctly handle the relationship between heavy industry and agriculture and light industry, and blaze an industrialization path suited to China’s national conditions; it must mobilize all positive factors and unite the people of all ethnic groups to build a powerful socialist country; it must properly grasp the basic contradictions of socialist society and pay attention to adjusting situations where the productive forces are incompatible with the relations of production and the economic base is incompatible with the superstructure; it must properly handle the ten major relationships in socialist construction and the relationship between accumulation and consumption; and it must adopt peaceful methods, adhere to an independent foreign policy of peace, and uphold the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence. These forward-looking reflections and strategic explorations accumulated practical experience and intellectual wisdom for China’s socialist modernization.

习近平总书记指出：“毛泽东同志带领人民创建了先进的社会主义制度。只有社会主义才能救中国、才能发展中国。”建设社会主义现代化强国、实现中华民族伟大复兴是我们党一百多年来孜孜以求的宏伟目标，从第一个五年计划到第十四个五年规划，一以贯之的主题是把我国建设成为社会主义现代化国家。毛泽东同志以深邃的思考和前瞻的眼光，对如何实现社会主义现代化强国进行了不懈探索，为中国社会主义现代化建设事业开创奠基、成功拓展作出了不可磨灭的历史贡献。在建设目标上，毛泽东同志指出：“我国人民应该有一个远大的规划，要在几十年内，努力改变我国在经济上和科学文化上的落后状况，迅速达到世界上的先进水平”，并指出中国共产党人的目标“在于建设一个中华民族的新社会和新国家”，中国工人阶级的任务不但是为着建立新民主主义的国家而斗争，而且是为着中国的工业化和农业近代化而斗争，使中国稳步地由农业国转变为工业国，把中国建设成一个伟大的社会主义国家。在建设规划上，毛泽东同志领导制定了“四个现代化”分两步走的规划安排，即第一步，建立一个独立的比较完整的工业体系和国民经济体系；第二步，全面实现农业、工业、国防和科学技术的现代化。在发展战略上，毛泽东同志强调，中国的社会主义现代化只能走自己的道路，不能机械搬用外国的经验；要从中国是一个大农业国这一基本国情出发，以农业为基础，正确处理重工业同农业、轻工业的关系，走出一条适合我国国情的工业化道路；要调动一切积极因素，团结全国各族人民建设社会主义强大国家；要把握好社会主义社会基本矛盾，注意调整生产力同生产关系、经济基础同上层建筑不相适应的情况；必须妥善处理社会主义建设中的十大关系，处理好积累和消费的关系；采取和平的方法，坚持独立自主的和平外交政策，坚持和平共处五项原则。这些具有前瞻性的思考、战略性的探索为中国进行社会主义现代化建设积累了实践经验和思想智慧。

General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that Chinese-path modernization is grounded in China’s reality, conforms to China’s national conditions, has goals, plans, and strategies, and we will advance it steadily step by step. General Secretary Xi Jinping’s series of important expositions on Chinese-path modernization are lofty in conception, rich in content, and profound in thought. They further deepen the understanding of the connotation and essence of Chinese-path modernization, summarize and form its Chinese characteristics, essential requirements, and major principles, and preliminarily construct the theoretical system of Chinese-path modernization, making it clearer, more scientific, more tangible and feasible. This is of great significance for comprehensively advancing the building of a strong country and the great cause of national rejuvenation through Chinese-path modernization on the new journey of the New Era. To achieve the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation through Chinese-path modernization, we must persist in developing through inheritance and innovating through upholding fundamental principles. We must both draw on the essence of Comrade Mao Zedong’s thinking on socialist modernization, such as adhering to the idea of “overall consideration” [9] and ensuring the continuous improvement of the people’s material and cultural living standards, and integrate it with our Party’s theoretical innovations and practical creations in the New Era. We must safeguard the foundation, source, roots, and soul of Chinese-path modernization, unswervingly adhere to its Chinese characteristics, essential requirements, and major principles, deeply explore and answer the new practical issues encountered, open up new horizons in adapting Marxism to the Chinese context and the needs of the times, deepen the understanding of the laws governing Chinese-path modernization, and better advance the great cause of Chinese-path modernization.

习近平总书记指出，中国式现代化立足中国实际，符合中国国情，有目标、有规划、有战略，我们将一步一个脚印扎扎实实向前推进。习近平总书记围绕中国式现代化发表的一系列重要论述，立意高远，内涵丰富，思想深刻，进一步深化对中国式现代化的内涵和本质的认识，概括形成中国式现代化的中国特色、本质要求和重大原则，初步构建中国式现代化的理论体系，使中国式现代化更加清晰、更加科学、更加可感可行，对于新时代新征程以中国式现代化全面推进强国建设、民族复兴伟业，具有十分重要的意义。以中国式现代化实现中华民族伟大复兴，就要坚持在继承中发展、在守正中创新，既要汲取借鉴毛泽东同志关于社会主义现代化建设要坚持“统筹兼顾”的思想，要确保不断提高人民物质和文化生活水平等思想的精华，又要结合我们党在新时代的理论创新和实践创造，守好中国式现代化的本和源、根和魂，毫不动摇坚持中国式现代化的中国特色、本质要求和重大原则，深入探索回答实践遇到的崭新课题，开辟马克思主义中国化时代化新境界，深化对中国式现代化建设规律的认识，更好地推进中国式现代化伟大事业。

4. Open Up New Horizons for the Cause through Tenacious Struggle

4.通过顽强斗争打开事业发展新天地

General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: “Over a hundred years ago, Comrade Mao Zedong said: ‘We must strive! We must strive forward with all our might! Our golden world, a world of radiance and splendor, lies ahead!’” Daring to struggle and daring to win are the powerful spiritual force with which the Communist Party of China accomplishes great causes, and they are also the precious spiritual character that Comrade Mao Zedong consistently advocated and practiced throughout his life. Comrade Mao Zedong viewed great struggle from a philosophical height, emphasizing that contradictions exist and run through the entire process of the development of things, representing the alternation and unity of the old and new processes, and that the birth and development of new causes can only be achieved through struggle. Facing the calamitous history of national humiliation, people suffering, and civilization being covered in dust, the Chinese Communists, with Comrade Mao Zedong as their chief representative, led the Chinese people in arduous revolutionary struggles with a great spirit of struggle, overthrew the three mountains [10] weighing down on the Chinese people, and achieved the national independence and people’s liberation that the Chinese people had long dreamed of in modern times. In the historical process of advancing socialist revolution and construction, the Chinese Communists, with Comrade Mao Zedong as their chief representative, adhered to building socialism independently, defied threats from imperialism, hegemonism, and challenges from various quarters, firmly safeguarded socialist China’s territorial integrity and national sovereignty, and, with the great spirit of struggle of opening roads through mountains and building bridges across rivers, laid a solid development foundation for successfully advancing socialist modernization.

习近平总书记指出：“一百多年前，毛泽东同志说：‘我们总要努力！我们总要拼命的向前！我们黄金的世界，光华灿烂的世界，就在前面！’”敢于斗争、敢于胜利，是中国共产党成就伟大事业的强大精神力量，也是毛泽东同志一贯倡导和一生践行的宝贵精神品格。毛泽东同志从哲学的高度看待伟大斗争，强调矛盾存在并且贯穿于事物发展的始终，是新旧过程的交替统一，新事业的诞生和发展需要从斗争中才能取得。面对国家蒙辱、人民蒙难、文明蒙尘的劫难历史，以毛泽东同志为主要代表的中国共产党人以伟大的斗争精神，带领中国人民进行艰苦卓绝的革命斗争，推翻压在中国人民头上的三座大山，实现了近代以来中国人民梦寐以求的民族独立和人民解放。在推进社会主义革命和建设的历史进程中，以毛泽东同志为主要代表的中国共产党人坚持独立自主建设社会主义，不惧帝国主义、霸权主义的威胁和来自各方面的挑战，坚定维护社会主义中国的领土完整和国家主权，以逢山开路、遇水架桥的伟大斗争精神为成功推进社会主义现代化奠定了良好发展基础。

Our Party created history through struggle, and it must rely on struggle to win the future. On the new journey of comprehensively advancing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation through Chinese-path modernization, facing a large number of entirely new issues that have never appeared before, various difficulties and obstacles encountered, and many major tests of high winds and choppy waters, even treacherous waves, we must inherit and carry forward the great spirit that Comrade Mao Zedong consistently advocated: independence, daring to struggle and daring to win, not believing in evil, not fearing ghosts, and not being afraid of pressure. Under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core, we must actively meet challenges, dare

我们党依靠斗争创造历史，更要依靠斗争赢得未来。在以中国式现代化全面推进中华民族伟大复兴的新征程中，对于大量从未出现过的全新课题、遭遇的各种艰难险阻、经受的许多风高浪急甚至惊涛骇浪的重大考验，我们要继承弘扬毛泽东同志一贯倡导的独立自主、敢于斗争、敢于胜利，不信邪、不怕鬼、不怕压的伟大精神，在以习近平同志为核心的党中央坚强领导下，主动迎战、敢于斗争，只争朝夕、顽强奋斗，把国家和民族的发展放在自己力量的基点上，把国家发展进步的命运牢牢掌握在自己手中，克服战胜前进道路上各种困难和挑战，沿着中国特色社会主义道路，为以中国式现代化全面推进强国建设、民族复兴伟业而奋勇前进。
