　　"The most essential feature of Socialism with Chinese characteristics is the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership, the greatest advantage of Socialism with Chinese characteristics system is the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership, and the Communist Party of China (CPC) is the highest political leadership".

　　Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has taken a series of major strategic measures to uphold and strengthen the overall leadership of the Party and achieved great political, theoretical, institutional and practical achievements.

　　The authority and centralized and unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee have been strongly guaranteed, the party’s leadership system has been continuously improved, the party’s leadership style has become more scientific, the whole party has become more unified in thought, more United in politics and more consistent in action, and the party’s political leadership, ideological leadership, mass organization and social appeal have been significantly enhanced.

　　Clear-cut, the authority of the CPC Central Committee and centralized and unified leadership have been strongly guaranteed.

　　In November 2021, the Sixth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee adopted the third historical resolution of the Party and made a major political conclusion:

　　"The Party’s establishment of the core of the Supreme Leader’s Party Central Committee and the core position of the whole Party, and the guiding position of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era reflect the common aspiration of the whole party, the whole army and the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country, which is of decisive significance to the development of the cause of the party and the country in the new era and the promotion of the historical process of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation."

　　"Two Establishments" is the most important political achievement since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and it is the call of the times, historical choice and popular will.

　　Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has regarded upholding and strengthening the Party’s overall leadership as the top priority to create a new situation, and profoundly expounded the extreme importance and scientific connotation of upholding the Party’s overall leadership — —

　　"Party, government, military and civilian studies, east, west, north and south, the party is the leader of everything and the highest political leading force";

　　"China’s greatest national condition is the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership" "The leadership of the party is the root and lifeline of the party and the country, and it is the interest and destiny of the people of all ethnic groups in the country";

　　"The root of our governance is the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership and China’s socialist system" and "Adhering to the overall leadership of the party is the only way to uphold and develop Socialism with Chinese characteristics";

　　"the Communist Party of China (CPC) is the leading core of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s cause, so we must strengthen and improve the leadership of the party and give full play to the leading core role of the party in taking the overall situation and coordinating all parties";

　　… …

　　A series of important expositions profoundly expounded the extreme importance and scientific connotation of upholding and strengthening the Party’s overall leadership, and provided theoretical guidance for unifying the thinking of the whole Party and the people throughout the country.

　　In the autumn of 2017, at the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader put forward the general requirements for Party building in the new era, further emphasizing upholding and strengthening the overall leadership of the Party.

　　It was at the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China that "the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership is the most essential feature of Socialism with Chinese characteristics and the greatest advantage of the Socialism with Chinese characteristics system" was written in party constitution. At the first session of the 13th National People’s Congress held in March of the following year, the amendment to the Constitution was passed, and "the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s leadership is the most essential feature of Socialism with Chinese characteristics" was written into Article 1 of the General Program in Chapter 1 of the Constitution.

　　From the core connotation of the "Ten Definitions" of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, to the remarkable advantages of China’s national system and national governance system in thirteen aspects, and then to the historical experience of "Ten Persistences" that the Communist Party of China (CPC) has struggled for a hundred years … … In a series of important theoretical summaries and important experience enlightenment, the leadership of the party is in the first place.

　　Things are in all directions, and they should be in the center. Centralized and unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee is the highest principle of the party’s leadership.

　　The CPC Central Committee is the brain and center of the whole party, and it has the authority to make a final decision. The local organizations of the party ensure that the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee are implemented in the region, and that orders are followed and prohibitions are stopped; The party group implements the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and higher-level party organizations and plays an important role in guiding the direction, managing the overall situation and ensuring implementation; The grass-roots organizations of the Party are responsible for implementing the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and higher-level party organizations at the grass-roots level.

　　Run through and implement a strong organizational system from top to bottom, so that the CPC Central Committee can form an incomparable strong leadership, organization and execution.

　　Only when the whole party has the core can the Party Central Committee have authority and the Party have power.

　　Resolutely achieving "two maintenance" is the most important political discipline and rule of our party. The whole party resolutely safeguards the core of the Party Central Committee and the core position of the whole party, resolutely safeguards the authority of the Party Central Committee and centralizes and unifies leadership, unites into a "hard piece of steel" and moves forward in unison.

　　Establish rules and regulations to implement the party’s overall leadership in all fields, aspects and links of state governance.

　　General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "The requirements for strengthening the Party’s leadership over all work are not empty and abstract, but should be implemented and reflected in all aspects."

　　Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee has taken a series of measures to implement the Party’s leadership in all aspects of state governance, and to ensure that the Party leads the revival ship to break the waves along the right course.

　　The party’s leadership system is constantly improving — —

　　On January 16th, 2015, an important meeting was held in Huairentang, Zhongnanhai for a whole day.

　　General Secretary of the Supreme Leader presided over the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee meeting and listened to the work reports of the party groups of the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC), the State Council, Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, the Supreme People’s Court and the Supreme People’s Procuratorate.

　　Since then, at the beginning of each year, such a report will be held once, which has become an important institutional arrangement for upholding the authority of the CPC Central Committee and centralized and unified leadership.

　　A stable system leads to a stable country, and a strong system leads to a strong country.

　　The Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee highlighted the adherence to and improvement of the party’s leadership system, and grasped the key and foundation of state governance.

　　The Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee’s regulations on strengthening and maintaining centralized and unified leadership of the CPC Central Committee, the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s regulations on requesting reports on major issues, and other internal party laws and regulations have been promulgated, making the party’s overall leadership more institutionalized and standardized;

　　Establish the Central Committee for Comprehensively Deepening Reform, the Central National Security Council, the Central Committee for Cybersecurity and Informatization, the Central Committee for Finance and Economics, and the Central Committee for Comprehensively Governing the Country according to Law, etc., and strengthen the functions of the decision-making and deliberation coordination bodies of the CPC Central Committee;

　　Comprehensively deepen the reform of the party and state institutions, and realize the systematic and holistic reconstruction of the functions of the party and state institutions;

　　Party committees (party groups) of state-owned enterprises play a leading role. Colleges and universities adhere to the principal responsibility system under the leadership of party committees, and gradually implement the school (hospital, institute) director responsibility system under the leadership of party organizations in public primary and secondary schools, hospitals and research institutes;

　　… …

　　Adhering to the Party’s overall leadership system horizontally and vertically is more mature and stereotyped, which provides a strong guarantee for promoting various undertakings in Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.

　　The party’s leadership style is more scientific — —

　　We should not only uphold the overall leadership of the party, but also constantly improve its leadership.

　　The 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China called for enhancing the Party’s ruling ability in an all-round way, and put forward specific requirements around enhancing learning ability, political leadership ability, reform and innovation ability, scientific development ability, ruling ability according to law, mass work ability, paying close attention to implementation ability and controlling risk ability.

　　In April 2022, the party’s 20 related work networks were launched for soliciting opinions. In just one month, the activity received more than 8.542 million suggestions from netizens. Previously, in August, 2020, in the process of drafting the "14 th Five-Year Plan" proposal, our party launched the "network consultation" for the first time in the history of five-year planning.

　　Adhere to democratic centralism, adhere to scientific, democratic and legal governance, and constantly improve the party’s ability and determination to take the direction, seek the overall situation, formulate policies and promote reform, so that the party’s leadership can better meet the requirements of practice, the times and the people.

　　Quenching into steel, effectively promoting the implementation of the party’s overall leadership.

　　With a single order, more than 3 million first secretaries and resident cadres fought at the forefront of poverty alleviation; Retrograde expedition and charge ahead, party flag is flying high in the front line of epidemic prevention and control … …

　　Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the people have truly felt that the Communist Party of China (CPC) has extremely strong leadership and is the most reliable backbone of the people of China when the storm strikes.

　　The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "The key to building a socialist modern country in an all-round way and realizing the goals and tasks of the new era and new journey lies in the party."

　　On the new journey, we must uphold and strengthen the overall leadership of the Party and ensure that the Party will always be the strong leadership core of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s great cause.

　　Carry out the concept of "jointly protecting and not developing", and all localities along the Yangtze River will cooperate and govern together, and the mother river will be full of vitality; Implement the deployment of "solidly promoting common prosperity" and explore new mechanisms in a steady manner; In accordance with the requirements of "jointly protecting and making good use of black land", Heilongjiang legislates for black land and guards the "lifeline" of big granaries … … All localities and departments have put the party’s major policies and the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee into place with practical actions.

　　As the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader said: "Only when Party organizations at all levels often call for alignment can we always be alert and correct mistakes in time, so that the whole party can always maintain a neat and high-spirited state of endeavor."

　　With "the country’s greatest power" in mind, we will constantly improve our political judgment, political understanding and political execution, and consciously maintain a high degree of consistency with the CPC Central Committee in ideological and political actions, so that the whole party can be twisted into a rope, thinking in one place and making efforts in one place.

　　On July 13, 2022, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader visited Guyuan Lane Community in Tianshan District, Urumqi, Xinjiang, and said, "We should build grass-roots party organizations in the community, truly play the role of a fighting fortress, and do a good job in all aspects of community services, so that people of all ethnic groups can live happier and happier lives."

　　The elders who seek wood must consolidate their roots. The party’s grass-roots organizations are the basis of all the party’s work and combat effectiveness.

　　In the vast countryside, the cadres of the "two committees" of the village are responsible and are the "leaders" of rural revitalization; Among all kinds of enterprises, grass-roots party organizations promote the integration of party building into all aspects of production and operation, and inject "red kinetic energy" into the development of enterprises … … The "nerve endings" of the party’s organizational system are more active, and the role of grassroots party organizations as battlefortresses is more fully played.

　　Under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, we will unswervingly uphold and strengthen the party’s overall leadership, constantly enhance the "four consciousnesses", strengthen the "four self-confidences" and achieve the "two safeguards". If the whole party, the whole army and the people of all ethnic groups in China unite and move forward, we will certainly be able to write a new chapter in building a socialist modern country in an all-round way.
