This evaluation by the famous contemporary historian Cai Shangsi in China highlights the prominent position of Zhu Xi, a Confucian giant, in the history of Chinese thought and culture.
Zhuxi Garden, also known as Wuyi Jingshe, on the bank of Jiuqu Stream in Mount Wuyi, Fujian Province, is one of the important birthplaces of Zhuzi culture. More than 800 years ago, Zhu Xi used academies as a platform to write books, advocate Taoism and give lectures here, build a system of Neo Confucianism, and further inherit and innovate Confucianism.
"There are fairies on Mount Wuyi, and the cold current is winding down the mountain." Zhu Xi's Neo Confucianism sowed the seeds of thought in Mount Wuyi and achieved the grand view of traditional Chinese culture.

"If it weren't for the 5000 years of Chinese civilization, where would there be any Chinese characteristics? If it weren't for Chinese characteristics, how could we have such a successful path of socialism with Chinese characteristics today?" General Secretary pointed out that we should organically combine adhering to Marxism with promoting excellent traditional Chinese culture, and firmly follow the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics.
At that time, Zhang Jianguang, a librarian at the Fujian Provincial Museum of Culture and History who was explaining to the General Secretary, clearly remembered: "General Secretary walked inside all the way, to the innermost house, and saw Zhu Zi's famous saying on the wall, 'The country is based on the people, and the country also stands for the people.' He stopped and stared for a long time." In the speech of the 6th collective study of the 19th Central Political Bureau, General Secretary quoted this sentence, emphasizing the strengthening of the Party's political construction, the need to closely follow the people's hearts as the biggest political point, and making winning the people's hearts and minds, gathering the wisdom and strength of the people an important focus.
Zhu Xi compiled the great achievements of Confucianism since Confucius and Mencius, especially elaborating and promoting the people-oriented ideology in ancient China. He served as an official in many places throughout his life, known for his pragmatism, integrity, and diligence in serving the people. He had a heart for benefiting the people and was also skilled in law enforcement.
The people's position is the fundamental political position of the CPC. The people of the CPC will organically combine the people centered development thought with the people based thought, and advocate "the people as the foundation of the state and the government as morality", so that our party will always have a solid foundation and the greatest confidence in governance.
This is the systematic understanding we have gained in exploring the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics, and it is the greatest weapon for us to achieve success.

Deep thinking and clear truth: Chinese excellent traditional culture is the wisdom crystallization and essence of Chinese civilization, the root and soul of the Chinese nation, and the foundation for us to stand firm in the world culture turmoil.
