The motherland is beautiful, and the spring breeze in the land of China. “After a magnificent journey, we have ushered in a brand-new year”. Farewell to 2022 and usher in 2023, history has once again witnessed the Chinese people's journey of overcoming difficulties, creating miracles and moving forward bravely. On New Year's Eve, President Xi Jinping delivered a 2023 New Year's message, deeply pointing out that "struggle to create miracles", "strength comes from unity", and calling on "we should move forward and tenaciously to make tomorrow's China better".

"A little spark gathers into a torch". Today's China is a China with brilliant achievements and a China where the people work together. It is a China that, under the correct leadership of the CPC, generations of Chinese people continue to struggle, achieve one great victory after another, create one great achievement after another, and realize one glorious dream after another. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, we have experienced and witnessed the centenary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era, completed the battle against poverty, built a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way, and achieved the historic victory of the first centennial goal. We have also experienced and witnessed the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. At the convening of the conference, the conference established the general policy of the Party and the state in the current and future period, drew a grand blueprint for the comprehensive promotion of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese modernization, and took solid steps in the new journey of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way. The achievement of all these achievements is the result of the correct leadership of the Communist Party of China, the miracle of the unity and struggle of all Chinese people, the full embodiment of China's strength, and the hard work of countless people. In his New Year's message, President Xi Jinping pointed out, "I light a spark and gather into a torch." The nation and the country are composed of individuals. The prosperity of the nation and the prosperity of the country are the common aspirations of all people and our common goal. It is precisely because all the people worked together under the leadership of the Party that the Beijing Winter Olympics and Winter Paralympic Games were a complete success. Shenzhou took off on the 13th, 14th and 15, the third aircraft carrier was successfully launched, and the first large plane was successfully delivered. It successfully responded to the unprecedented changes in the world in a century and the epidemics and floods encountered in China. Such natural disaster challenges, overcoming various difficulties to create more than 120 trillion yuan of GDP for the whole year, and maintaining grain output of more than 1.3 trillion catties for eight consecutive years, have obtained a solid material and technical guarantee for our development and security, and people's lives have been continuously improved. At present, we are making continuous progress towards the goal of a modern socialist country and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

"Difficulties and hardships make you successful.". The past year has been a year when the Chinese people have made brilliant achievements, and also a year when the Chinese people have worked together to overcome difficulties. In 2022, we will encounter all kinds of difficulties, but the Chinese people will never flinch in the face of difficulties. Instead, they will rise to the difficulties and fight against them until they are overcome and won. Our Party, our country and our nation have always had the glorious tradition of fearing hardship and sacrifice, daring to struggle and being good at it, and the more difficult it is, the more forward it is, and the dauntless spirit of revolutionary optimism. It is in this spirit that the Communist Party of China has overcome difficulties. Under extremely difficult conditions, they led the Chinese people to overthrow the rule and oppression of imperialism, feudalism and bureaucratic capitalism, and established a new China of people's democracy, so that the Chinese people stood up from now on. In the face of a very weak economic foundation, the Communist Party of China led the Chinese people in socialist industrialization, established a complete industrial system and national economic system in a very short time, defeated the blockade and sanctions imposed on us by Western capitalist countries, and laid an important material foundation for China's socialist modernization and reform. In the face of the backwardness of science and technology and the dilemma of planned economy, the Communist Party of China led the Chinese people to adhere to the ideological line of seeking truth from facts, decisively implemented internal reform and opening up to the outside world, adhered and developed Marxism, re-understanding socialism, and promoted socialist market economy reform. After more than 30 years of reform and opening up, it has quickly became the world's second largest economy, and the people quickly became rich. Socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era. The Communist Party of China has led the Chinese people to win the battle against poverty, built a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way in China, successfully achieved the first centennial goal, and is leading the people of the whole country to build a modern socialist country in an all-round way, stridly towards the second centennial goal. The Communist Party of China led the Chinese people in various historical periods of revolution, construction and reform, braved difficulties and dared to struggle. They overcame one rare difficulties after another, and achieved success after another, enabling China and the Chinese nation to achieve a great leap from standing up, getting rich to strengthening. Materialist dialectics tells us that contradictions are common, and smooth sailing is our good wish. The correct attitude of Marxism is to face up to the possible problems and difficulties in the future. On the new journey, we will still encounter various difficulties and obstacles. Therefore, we need to continue to carry forward the spirit of not fearing difficulties and united struggle. We need to use our troops to block and cover the waters, cut waves, and move steadily to the future. We need to continue to create the Chinese miracle, move from victory to victory, create greater glory for China in the new era, and move forward bravely towards the dream of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

"Yu Gong moves mountains, dripping water through stones." In his New Year's message, President Xi Jinping pointed out that "Tomorrow's China will strive to create miracles" requires us to firmly believe and work tirelessly. He also quoted Su Shi's "offending the most difficult and drawing on it as far away", pointing out that "Although the road is far away, it will come; although it is difficult, it will be done. As long as you have the ambition of Yugong to move the mountain, the perseverance of dripping water through stones, down-to-earth, immerstaking efforts, and accumulating small steps thousands of miles, you will definitely turn the grand goal into a beautiful reality." This is a dialectic of Marxist quantitative change to promote qualitative change, and it means that it is not easy to create miracles. It is necessary to have not only a down-to-earth and hard-working spirit, but also the courage to move mountains and unswervingly, as well as the perseverance of ropesaw wood and dripping water and stones. In 1945, Comrade Mao Zedong told the story of "Yu Gong moving mountains" in his closing speech at the 7th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. He pointed out that in order to overthrow the two mountains overw the Chinese people, imperialism and feudalism, the Communist Party of China will make up its mind like Yu Gong, persevere and continue digging mountains, so that it will touch the "the whole Chinese people" and "together with us" to dig these two mountains, and it will definitely be able to dig these two mountains. The mountain was pushed down and leveled. Now, the revolution has been successful for a long time, but the revolutionary spirit and revolutionary spirit should still be adhered to, which is an important magic weapon for our continued success. Achieving the second centennial goal, building a modern socialist country, and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation are the long cherished aspirations of several generations of Chinese people, and are also the great glorious and arduous cause that the CPC and the Chinese people are doing. It is difficult, so great; However, it is arduous and more glorious. Therefore, as in the period of revolution, construction and reform, we should continue to carry forward the spirit of the Foolish Old Man who moved mountains and the drop of water pierced the stone. We should stick to the principle of integrity and work hard for a long time. We should always maintain the tenacity of "sticking to the green mountains and never relax" and the tenacity of "never break the blue orchids and never return", and work tirelessly to achieve the common ideal.

"The power of unity is incomparably strong." China is a large country with a population of more than 1.4 billion. Everyone is an independent individual and has his own personal interests. But more importantly, all people are citizens of the People's Republic of China and a part of the Chinese nation. They have common interests, a community of interests, and have the material and ideological basis for unity and struggle for common interests and goals. This requires us to be good at extracting the greatest common denominal common denominal of the masses and building consensus. Only when the whole nation is united and the whole country has a game of chess can we achieve great things and realize our dreams. President Xi Jinping pointed out in his congratulatory speech, "more than 1.4 billion Chinese people think in one place, work hard, work together in the same boat, and work together, so there is nothing that can't be done and can't be reached." Changes in the world, times and historical changes are unfolding in an unprecedented way, and uncertain and unpredictable factors are increasing. For us, opportunities and risks coexist. In addition to maintaining strategic determination and firm belief and confidence, we should also be good at communication, coordinating interests, building consensus, and unite and strive to achieve common goals in domestic and international affairs. At present, developing the national economy, improving the well-being of the people, adhering to and improving "one country, two systems", promoting the reunification of the motherland, promoting world peace and building a community with a shared future for mankind are still major tasks facing us. It also requires the common efforts of all Chinese people, overseas Chinese and all international people who love peace and promote development. 

We are in a critical period to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Our goals have been anchored, and new miracles are waiting for us to create. We should strengthen our sense of historical responsibility and historical initiative, continue to carry forward the spirit of struggle, have the courage to take responsibility, take positive actions, and move forward with difficulties and work hard. In today's China, the future is bright and the people are heroic. The Communist Party of China is leading the people of the whole country on a new journey of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way. It is the common interest and common goal of the people of the whole country to build a modern socialist country and realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Unity is the source of strength, and common goals are also the source of people's unity. By constantly consolidating the great unity of the people of all ethnic groups and the great unity of the sons and daughters of China at home and abroad, we will be able to realize the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
