Chapter 5 The connotation of Chinese characteristics is two transcendence

You just said that a concept of time related to "two to three generations are very busy" is 70 years.Why do you say that?Why can't "China's road to socialist modernization" be calculated further forward? In 1964, the third National People's Congress was held. Didn't Zhou Enlai already put forward the "four modernizations" in his government work report?Didn't Mao Zedong already add to Zhou Enlai's government work report that "we must break the routine, adopt advanced technology as much as possible, and build our country into a socialist modern power in a not too long historical period"? In 1975, the Fourth National People's Congress was held. Didn't Zhou Enlai reiterate the "four modernizations" in his government work report? (Zhou Enlai)

1964, 1975 "Government Work Report") You noticed this, and it is also very good.As I said just now, if China’s socialist modernization is realized within approximately 100 years from the founding of the People’s Republic of China, that is, from 1949 to the middle of the 21st century. However, the "China's road to socialist modernization" we are discussing now is not so broad, but specifically refers to the new road created after the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Communist Party of China in the late 1970s.The key lies in the "Chinese characteristics" of reform and opening up, which was fully developed only after the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee.

Now people are seeing more and more clearly that the connotation of this "characteristic" is "two transcendences".One is to go beyond the old-style industrialization path and the resource scramble that the old-style industrialization path will inevitably bring, and to move towards a peaceful rise through a new type of industrialization path of sustainable development.This is unprecedented in the modern history of the world.The second is to go beyond the Cold War mentality of refusing peace, development, and cooperation due to differences in social systems and ideologies, and to strive for hegemony in one go, and boldly implement reform and opening up. In the process of separation, by learning, learning from, and even introducing various beneficial achievements of human civilization, we can independently build socialism with Chinese characteristics and move towards a peaceful rise.This is also unprecedented in the world since modern times.You see, "two transcendences" and two "unprecedented" determine that the road we have created is a brand new road.We have traveled this path for 25 years, and we will continue to do so for another 45 years until we basically realize socialist modernization by the middle of the 21st century.This is the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and this is the peaceful rise of China.

Let me ask you, China, a large country with a population of 1.3 billion to 1.5 billion, and a country with a relatively backward economy and culture. If it takes 70 years to complete this task, is it considered a long time?I don't think it is too long, even 100 years from the founding of the People's Republic of China is not too long!Please look at the history of the world economy. It took 250 years since the industrial revolution, and the total population of the industrialized countries and regions is only 1.5 billion!That’s why I once said that it took the Chinese 100 years to realize the modernization of the dual missions of industrialization and informatization in a large country with a population of 1.5 billion. It is indeed the largest, profound and fastest society in the history of the world. big change.
