The broad and profound Chinese civilization was created by the Chinese people! The timeless Chinese national spirit was cultivated by the Chinese people! The great leap is the struggle of the Chinese people!

The characteristics and endowments of the Chinese people have not only created the Chinese civilization that has lasted for thousands of years, but also profoundly influenced the development and progress of contemporary China and the spiritual world of contemporary Chinese people. The great national spirit nurtured, inherited and developed by the Chinese people in their long-term struggles has provided a strong spiritual impetus for China's development and the progress of human civilization.

- The Chinese people are people with great creative spirit. In the long history of thousands of years, the Chinese people have always worked hard, invented and created. Our country has produced Laozi, Confucius, Zhuangzi, Mencius, Mozi, Sunzi, Han Feizi and other world-famous great thinkers, and invented paper making, gunpowder, Printing, compass and other great scientific and technological achievements that have profoundly affected the progress of human civilization, created the Book of Songs, Chu Ci, Han Fu, Tang poetry, Song Ci, Yuan music, Ming and Qing novels and other great literary and artistic works, inherited King Gesar, Manas , Jianger and other shocking great epics, built the Great Wall, Dujiangyan, Grand Canal, Forbidden City, Potala Palace and other magnificent projects.

I believe that as long as more than 1.3 billion Chinese people always carry forward this great creative spirit, we will surely be able to create one miracle after another!

——The Chinese people are people with great fighting spirit. In the long history of thousands of years, the Chinese people have always made innovations and self-improvement. They have developed and built the vast and beautiful rivers and mountains of the motherland, opened up the vast sea and frontier with thousands of hectares of waves, reclaimed the vast grain fields rich in products, and managed the unruly thousands of people. Hundreds of great rivers have overcome countless natural disasters, built scattered towns and villages, developed a full range of industries, and formed a colorful life. The Chinese people have understood since ancient times that there is no good thing in the world to sit back and enjoy, and to be happy requires struggle. Today, everything the Chinese people have, embodies the ingenuity of the Chinese people, soaks up the hard work and sweat of the Chinese people, and contains the huge sacrifices of the Chinese people. I believe that as long as more than 1.3 billion Chinese people always carry forward this great spirit of struggle, we will surely achieve the grand goal of creating a better life for the people!

In the long history of thousands of years, the Chinese people have always been united and helped each other, established a unified multi-ethnic country, developed harmonious ethnic relations in which 56 ethnic groups are diverse and integrated, and formed a big family of the Chinese nation that helps each other. Especially after modern times, under the severe situation of foreign aggressors and serious disasters, the people of all ethnic groups in our country, arm in arm and shoulder to shoulder, fought heroically and bloody battles, defeated all vicious aggressors, and defended national independence and freedom. Together they wrote the magnificent epic of the Chinese nation defending the motherland and resisting foreign aggression. Today, China's remarkable development achievements are the result of the concerted efforts of the people of all ethnic groups in the country. The Chinese people have deeply realized from their own experience that unity is strength, and unity can lead to progress. It is impossible for a divided country to develop and progress. I believe that as long as the more than 1.3 billion Chinese people always carry forward this great spirit of solidarity, we will surely be able to form a strong and invincible force!

——The Chinese people are people with the spirit of great dreams. In the long history of thousands of years, the Chinese people have always cherished dreams and pursued unremittingly. We have not only formed the concept of a well-off life, but also adhered to the sentiment of the world for the common good. , Kuafu chasing the sun, Jingwei reclaiming the sea, Yugong moving mountains and other ancient Chinese myths deeply reflect the persistent spirit of the Chinese people to pursue and realize their dreams. The Chinese people believe that no matter how high the mountain is, if you climb up, you will always reach the top; no matter how long the road is, you will surely reach it if you keep walking. Since modern times, the realization of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation has become the greatest dream of the Chinese nation. The Chinese people are indomitable and persevering, with the spirit of fighting the enemy to the end, the determination to restore the old on the basis of self-reliance, and the ability to stand on their own among the nations of the world. , for more than 170 years of continuous struggle to realize this great dream.
