Author: Deng Xiquan (Researcher at the Research Center for the Theory of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics and the China Youth Research Center of the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League) Mao Zedong's view on youth is a product of the sinicization and modernization of Marxist youth view, an important manifestation of Mao Zedong Thought as the first leap in the sinicization and modernization of Marxism, and the fundamental reason for the continuous significant achievements and profound changes in the Party's youth work in response to the continuous changes in historical orientation. Mao Zedong's view of youth has opened up the correct path for the sinicization and modernization of the Marxist view of youth, and has enriched and improved the CPC's view of youth. ——————————The localization and modernization task of Marxist youth view mainly has two important development fields and corresponding development periods: first, the localization and modernization of Marxist youth view by Communist Party members such as Lenin in the Soviet Union and the original socialist countries influenced by the Soviet Union. This was the first enrichment and development of Marxist youth view on a global scale, but the historical process was interrupted due to the upheaval in Eastern Europe and the disintegration of the Soviet Union. Second, the CPC has continued to realize the sinicization and modernization of the Marxist youth view, which has formed the theoretical achievements of our party's youth view. The process of sinicization and modernization of Marxist youth view began with the exploration and practice of Communist Party members such as Li Dazhao, Chen Duxiu, and Mao Zedong in the early days of the founding of the Party. It was formed and consolidated by the historical achievements and theoretical achievements of the first generation of central leadership collective with Comrade Mao Zedong as the core in the Party's youth work. Mao Zedong's youth view is the first time that Marxist youth view has achieved comprehensive and systematic sinicization and modernization. The organic integration of the consolidation and development of the socialist system with the realization of the essence of youth exists as an independent social group in the social structure, first and foremost a product of the Industrial Revolution, and therefore emerged first in the West. Based on scientific judgments on the evolution of social systems, Marx and Engels for the first time scientifically revealed that the essence of youth lies in "novelty". They represent the direction of future development and are the fundamental driving force of historical development and the future of human development. Chinese youth have become an independent social group in the social structure, which is a product of the May Fourth Movement, and the essence of youth has gradually been revealed since then. The Chinese civilization, which has lasted for more than 5000 years, although has explored and praised the essence of youth, in history, it was more about the constraints and misunderstandings of youth. Mao Zedong deeply pointed out that in the long feudal society, "children and young people had no right to speak in everything. Chinese young people suffered too much from feudal families and feudal society." Mao Zedong saw the great power of the youth group in the May Fourth Movement, and fully and authoritatively embedded Marx and Engels' views on the essence of youth revolution and innovation into the process of Chinese civilization and the Chinese nation. He deeply pointed out that the essence of youth lies in vitality and more hope. In December 1939, at the commemoration conference of the fourth anniversary of the 129th Movement in Yan'an, Mao Zedong passionately pointed out: "Full of young people, full of vitality." After the establishment of the People's Republic of China, the socialist system made the essence of youth more comprehensively demonstrated. Mao Zedong organically combined the consolidation and development of the socialist system with the realization of the essence of youth. You young people are full of vitality and in a prosperous period, as if at eight or nine o'clock in the morning
