General Secretary Xi Jinping delivered an important speech at the opening ceremony of the special seminar on studying and implementing the spirit of the Third Plenary Session of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China for provincial and ministerial level leading cadres, emphasizing that "upholding integrity and innovation are major principles that must be firmly grasped and always adhered to in further deepening reform." This important discourse provides guidance, methods, and clear paths for further deepening reform comprehensively. The Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Communist Party of China opened up a new era of reform, opening up, and socialist modernization construction, and paved the way for socialism with Chinese characteristics. In the new era, our Party has continued to forge ahead, successfully promoted and expanded Chinese path to modernization, and made historic achievements and changes in various undertakings of the Party and the country. Practice has proved that in the great cause of Chinese path to modernization, it is a major principle to carry out all work and further deepen the reform comprehensively to adhere to the principle of keeping the right direction and not making subversive mistakes, and to ensure that the era is grasped and led by innovation. Our reform is directional and principled, which is the fundamental principle of upholding justice. The righteousness upheld is fundamental, directional, and long-term, reflecting the nature and purpose of the Party, in line with China's national conditions, and in line with the fundamental interests of the people. There should be no wavering at any time and under any circumstances. We must closely focus on the central task of the new era and new journey of comprehensively promoting the building of a strong country and national rejuvenation with Chinese path to modernization to further comprehensively deepen reform. Chinese path to modernization is a new cause that our Party has successfully promoted and expanded on the basis of long-term exploration and practice since the founding of New China, especially since the reform and opening up, and through the theoretical and practical innovation and breakthroughs since the 18th National Congress of the Party. It is the only right way to build a strong country and revive the nation. The unprecedented major changes in the world today are accelerating. Faced with the complex international and domestic situation, especially frequent local conflicts and turbulence, intensified global issues, and escalating external suppression and containment, China's development is facing many unstable and uncertain factors. To further deepen the reform comprehensively, we must focus on effectively preventing and responding to various contradictions, risks and challenges in the critical period of building a strong country and rejuvenating the nation, and focus on providing strong impetus and institutional guarantee for Chinese path to modernization. No matter how the reform is carried out, the fundamental principles of upholding the Party's comprehensive leadership, Marxism, socialism with Chinese characteristics, and people's democratic dictatorship must not be shaken in the slightest. These principles are objective truths proven by practice, the foundation of building a strong country, and the common political foundation for the unity and struggle of the entire Party and the people of all ethnic groups in the country. Only by firmly safeguarding the authority of the Central Committee of the Party and centralized and unified leadership, and making the Party always the most reliable backbone of the Chinese people when the wind and rain strikes, can we ensure that we can gather the great power of unity and struggle with strong political cohesion and developing self-confidence. Only by adhering to Marxism can we ensure political security and provide a correct worldview and methodology for the development of our country. Only by adhering to socialism with Chinese characteristics can we truly avoid the old path of being closed and rigid, and the evil path of changing flags and banners, ensuring that China's socialist modernization construction always advances in the correct direction of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, continuously realizing the people's aspirations for a better life, and solidly promoting common prosperity for all people. Only by adhering to the people's democratic dictatorship can we truly realize the people-centered approach, ensure that the people are the masters of the country, and build a political system that is in line with China's national conditions, has the widest social foundation, and ensures the realization of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Reform must take promoting social fairness and justice, and enhancing people's well-being as the starting point and foothold. This country is its people; the people are the country. Continuously meeting the growing needs of the people for a better life is the starting point and foothold of our party's governance. The essential requirement and institutional superiority of socialism are to ensure that the fruits of development benefit all people more and fairly. Further comprehensive deepening of reform must firmly uphold the value orientation of putting the people at the center, focus on maintaining and promoting social fairness and justice, strive to enhance people's well-being, promote common prosperity for all, and resolutely prevent polarization. This is the essential requirement of our party as a Marxist political party. We must adhere to the overall goal of continuing to improve and develop the socialist system with Chinese characteristics, and promote the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity. Achieving national rejuvenation will be no walk in the park; it will take more than drum beating and gong clanging to get there. As a developing country with a huge population, we must not only continuously adapt the socialist system with Chinese characteristics to the requirements of practical development, but also continuously promote the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity, transform the advantages of various systems into the effectiveness of national governance, and ensure the stable and far-reaching development of the Party and the country's various undertakings in the accelerated evolution of the century old situation. To adhere to the general goal of reform is to unswervingly adhere to the overall goal of Chinese path to modernization, the second centennial goal and the overall strategic arrangement for building a strong socialist modernization country in all respects. Based on the current situation and looking forward to the future, new trends continue to emerge in the development of the times, new requirements continue to emerge in practical development, and new expectations of the people continue to increase. These new trends, new requirements, and new expectations are all phenomena, things, and problems in development. We must continue to take great historical initiative, great political courage, and strong sense of responsibility, and promote solutions from the perspective of institutional mechanisms through further comprehensive deepening of reform and innovative exploration. The reform and innovation of the new journey must always move towards the direction guided by the overall goal, and resolutely change what needs to be changed. Innovation is the courage to explore and open up new horizons, daring to say new things that have not been said by predecessors, doing things that have not been done by predecessors in the face of traditional ideological concepts and entrenched interests, daring to venture into deep waters, tackle hard bones, and venture into dangerous beaches. Only in this way can we cultivate new opportunities in the crisis, create new situations in the changing situation, and constantly push forward the new cause of Chinese path to modernization. To further comprehensively deepen reform, we must adhere to a problem oriented approach, strive to solve the most prominent problems, continuously build fundamental systems through important institutional innovations, and improve basic systems. The reform and innovation of the new journey must highlight the key point of economic system reform and comprehensively coordinate the promotion of reforms in all aspects. In the new stage of system design and overall promotion of comprehensive deepening reform, it is very important to continue to choose the right entry point that can "affect the whole body with one pull". High quality development is the fundamental principle of the new era. To turn the grand blueprint of Chinese path to modernization into a better reality step by step, we must focus on the central work of economic construction and the primary task of high-quality development. We must pay attention to the driving role of economic system reform and coordinate the deployment of economic system reform and other reforms in various fields. In the specific process of reform and innovation, we should focus on the core issue of handling the relationship between the government and the market, give prominent importance to building a high-level socialist market economy system, improve the institutional mechanisms and macroeconomic governance system for accelerating the development of new quality productive forces, and further improve the institutional mechanisms for urban-rural integration development and high-level opening up to the outside world. At the same time, attention should be paid to building a system and mechanism that supports comprehensive innovation, coordinating and promoting the integrated reform of the education, science and technology talent system and mechanism, emphasizing comprehensive reform, coordinated development and security, and strengthening the Party's leadership over reform. The reform and innovation of the new journey must vigorously promote theoretical innovation, practical innovation, institutional innovation, cultural innovation and other innovations to provide a strong impetus and institutional guarantee for Chinese path to modernization. Reform and innovation is a profound and complex social change, and a systematic project. Under the further comprehensive deepening of the reform system, reform and innovation in various aspects and fields are relatively independent subsystems. The reform and innovation of these subsystems will inevitably include theoretical innovation, practical innovation, institutional innovation, cultural innovation, and other aspects of innovation. Among them, institutional construction and innovation are the main lines, theoretical innovation provides leading preparation and basis for institutional innovation, practical innovation is not only the foundation and source of institutional innovation, but also the "experimental field" for institutional innovation transformation, and cultural innovation provides spiritual motivation and intellectual support for theoretical innovation, practical innovation, institutional innovation, etc. At present, we are standing at a new starting point to promote comprehensive deepening reform. Reform and innovation in all aspects and fields also need to be vigorously promoted at the new starting point, with top-level design and overall planning to form a complementary organic unity. 3. The exploration of Chinese path to modernization is a historical process of development in the process of inheritance and innovation in the process of integrity. In the further comprehensive deepening of reform, upholding integrity and innovation are one body, two wings, and mutually reinforcing, reflecting the dialectical unity of change and constancy, inheritance and development, principle and creativity. The key to reform is to anchor the course of innovation and stabilize the steering wheel with a strong determination to maintain the same path and aspirations, ensuring that all reform measures do not deviate or deform. Under the strong leadership of the Party, we must adhere to the principle of putting the people first, arm ourselves with the correct theory and practice path, firmly adhere to the faith and direction of reform and innovation, and promote better adaptation of production relations and productivity, superstructure and economic foundation, national governance and social development, so as to make Chinese path to modernization fast and steady. The strong vitality and momentum demonstrated by reform and innovation, as well as the practical results and satisfaction of the people, will undoubtedly further consolidate and cultivate the foundation of upholding integrity. The foundation of the Party lies in the people, its bloodline lies in the people, and its strength lies in the people. Adhering to the principle of putting the people first and serving the people wholeheartedly is the foundation of our Party's governance. Whether the Party can recognize the historical laws, conform to the trend of the times, strengthen its own construction, improve its governance ability, and make positive contributions directly reflects the leadership of the Party in further comprehensively deepening reform and promoting Chinese path to modernization. The continuous sublimation of both will inevitably enhance the confidence of the vast majority of the people in their path, theory, system, and culture to a greater extent, making the adherence to righteousness more deeply rooted. The new journey will continue to adhere to integrity and innovation, so that the two complement each other and complement each other. It will certainly continue to create a new situation for further comprehensively deepening reform, and promote Chinese path to modernization to overcome difficulties and achieve stability.
