High-quality development is the hard truth of the new era

In 2023, faced with an extremely complex international environment and arduous and heavy tasks of reform, development and stability, my country's major goals of economic and social development will be successfully completed, high-quality development will be steadily promoted, and solid steps will be taken in building a modern socialist country in an all-round way.

In the first quarter of 2024, my country continued to achieve new results in high-quality development, and the national economy continued to recover. The GDP increased by 5.3% year-on-year at constant prices; the added value of high-tech manufacturing industries above designated size increased by 7.5% year-on-year, 2.6 percentage points faster than the fourth quarter of the previous year; investment in high-tech industries increased by 11.4% year-on-year, of which investment in high-tech manufacturing and high-tech services increased by 10.8% and 12.7% respectively...

Development is the foundation and key to solving all problems in our country. Promoting high-quality development is an inevitable requirement for maintaining sustained and healthy economic development, an inevitable requirement for adapting to the changes in the main contradictions in our society and building a modern socialist country in an all-round way, and an inevitable requirement for development in accordance with economic laws. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core has fully, accurately and comprehensively implemented the new development concept, continuously deepened the understanding of the stage characteristics and laws of my country's economic development, and placed more emphasis on high-quality development. my country has continued to work hard on transforming modes, adjusting structures, improving quality and increasing efficiency. High-quality development has become a common consensus and conscious action of the whole party and society, and has achieved remarkable achievements. General Secretary Xi Jinping has made a series of important expositions on high-quality development, providing scientific guidance for continuously promoting high-quality development and continuously advancing Chinese-style modernization.

The article "Creating a New Situation for my country's High-quality Development" collects a series of important expositions on high-quality development made by General Secretary Xi Jinping from October 2017 to March 2024, which is highly political, theoretical and instructive. As the Third Plenary Session of the 20th CPC Central Committee is about to be held, we must combine the in-depth study and understanding of the spirit of this important article with the in-depth study and implementation of General Secretary Xi Jinping's important expositions on comprehensively deepening reform and developing new productive forces, and with the in-depth study and implementation of the spirit of the 20th CPC National Congress and the Central Economic Work Conference, firmly grasp the primary task of high-quality development, further comprehensively deepen reform, and continuously inject strong impetus into promoting high-quality development and advancing Chinese-style modernization.

Firmly grasp the primary task of high-quality development

"High-quality development is the primary task of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way. Development is the top priority of the Party in governing and rejuvenating the country. Without a solid material and technological foundation, it is impossible to build a modern socialist country in an all-round way."

This important judgment made by General Secretary Xi Jinping in the report of the 20th CPC National Congress scientifically grasps the practical process of my country's modernization construction and the general laws of modernization construction in various countries, and profoundly reflects the new historical conditions and stages of my country's development. It has great practical significance and far-reaching historical significance. The article "Creating a New Situation of my country's High-quality Development" includes the relevant important remarks of the General Secretary.

The move towards high-quality development is a historical process. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Party united and led the people to rely on their own efforts and work hard on the basis of poverty and backwardness, and established an independent and relatively complete industrial system and national economic system in a relatively short period of time. The Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Party realized the strategic shift of the work center of the Party and the country, and opened a new era of reform and opening up and socialist modernization. my country's economy has achieved rapid growth, production potential has been continuously released, production factors have been effectively utilized, and the scale of the economy has become larger and larger. At the same time, the economic growth model is relatively extensive, the economic structure is unreasonable, and the constraints of energy, resources, and the environment are becoming increasingly prominent. The problem of changing the economic development model has increasingly attracted the attention of the Party Central Committee.

Since the 18th CPC National Congress, socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era, and my country's economic development has also entered a new era. The CPC Central Committee, with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core, has continuously deepened its understanding of the phased characteristics of economic development. In 2013, the CPC Central Committee proposed that my country's economic development should shift from high-speed growth to a new normal of medium-high-speed growth. In 2014, the CPC Central Committee emphasized that adapting to, grasping and leading the new normal is the general logic of my country's economic development, and my country's economy is evolving to a stage with a more advanced form, more optimized division of labor and more reasonable structure. In 2017, the report of the 19th CPC National Congress declared that my country's economy has shifted from a stage of high-speed growth to a stage of high-quality development. In 2020, the Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee proposed to promote high-quality development as the theme. In 2022, the report of the 20th CPC National Congress emphasized that high-quality development is the primary task of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way.

Based on the new historical position and in accordance with the changes of the times and situations, General Secretary Xi Jinping has made a series of important expositions and in-depth and systematic explanations on major theoretical and practical issues such as the great significance, rich connotations, practical requirements, ultimate goal, strategic basis, the only way, internal requirements and important focus points of high-quality development in a series of important meetings and occasions, during inspections and investigations in various places and during important instructions and instructions.

——"Development in the new era and new stage must implement the new development concept and must be high-quality development". General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that major changes have taken place in the main contradictions of our society, and our economic development stage is also undergoing historic changes. Unbalanced and inadequate development is a manifestation of low development quality; economic development is a spiral upward process, and the rise is not linear. When the quantity accumulates to a certain stage, it must turn to qualitative improvement. Our economic development must also follow this law; we must pay attention to the development of quantity, but we must pay more attention to solving the problem of quality, and achieve effective growth in quantity while significantly improving quality; we must promote high-quality development to adapt to new changes in science and technology and new needs of the people, form a high-quality, efficient and diversified supply system, and provide more high-quality products and services, so that supply and demand can be balanced at a new level, and our economy can continue to develop healthily; and so on. These important expositions have profoundly answered the major question of why we should promote high-quality development.

——“High-quality development means shifting from ‘whether or not’ to ‘how good’”. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that high-quality development is development that can well meet the people's growing needs for a better life, development that embodies the new development concept, and development in which innovation becomes the first driving force, coordination becomes an endogenous feature, green becomes a universal form, openness becomes the only way, and sharing becomes the fundamental purpose; from the perspective of supply, high-quality development should achieve a relatively complete industrial system, networked and intelligent production organization, strong innovation, demand capture, brand influence, core competitiveness, and high product and service quality; from the perspective of demand, high-quality development should continuously meet the personalized, diversified, and constantly upgraded needs of the people, and this demand will lead to changes in the supply system and structure, and supply changes will continue to give rise to new demands; from the perspective of input-output, high-quality development should continuously improve labor efficiency, capital efficiency, land efficiency, resource efficiency, and environmental efficiency, continuously increase the contribution rate of scientific and technological progress, and continuously improve total factor productivity; from the perspective of distribution, high-quality development should achieve returns on investment, profits for enterprises, income for employees, and taxes for the government, and fully reflect their respective contributions evaluated by the market; from the perspective of the macroeconomic cycle, high-quality development should achieve smooth production, circulation, distribution, and consumption cycles, relatively reasonable major proportions and spatial layout of the national economy, and relatively stable economic development without major ups and downs; and so on. These important statements have profoundly answered the important question of what high-quality development is.

——"Promoting high-quality development is the fundamental requirement for us to determine development ideas, formulate economic policies, and implement macroeconomic regulation in the current and future period". General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that we must adhere to the theme of promoting high-quality development, organically combine the implementation of the strategy of expanding domestic demand with deepening supply-side structural reform, enhance the endogenous driving force and reliability of the domestic circulation, improve the quality and level of international circulation, accelerate the construction of a modern economic system, focus on improving total factor productivity, focus on improving the resilience and security level of the industrial chain and supply chain, focus on promoting urban-rural integration and regional coordinated development, and promote the effective improvement of economic quality and reasonable growth in quantity; high-quality development is not just an economic requirement, but a general requirement for all aspects of economic and social development; it is not a requirement only for economically developed regions, but a requirement that must be implemented in the development of all regions; it is not a requirement for a moment or a matter, but a requirement that must be adhered to for a long time; all regions should combine the actual situation, take measures according to local conditions, make the best use of their strengths and make up for their weaknesses, and embark on a path of high-quality development that suits the actual situation of their regions; it is necessary to accelerate the formation of an indicator system, policy system, standard system, statistical system, performance evaluation, and performance assessment to promote high-quality development, create and improve the institutional environment, and promote my country's economy to continuously make new progress in achieving high-quality development; and so on. These important expositions have profoundly answered the major question of how to promote high-quality development.

——"Planning major measures for further comprehensive deepening of reform, continuously injecting strong momentum into promoting high-quality development and advancing Chinese-style modernization". General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that reform is the driving force of development, and we must unswervingly deepen reform and opening up, deeply transform the development model, promote quality change with efficiency change and power change, and accelerate the formation of sustainable high-quality development systems and mechanisms; to further comprehensively deepen reform, we must grasp the main contradictions and the main aspects of the contradictions, adhere to and develop my country's basic economic system, build a high-level socialist market economic system, improve the macroeconomic governance system and promote high-quality development systems and mechanisms, and improve systems and mechanisms to support comprehensive innovation and urban-rural integrated development; to further comprehensively deepen reform, we must highlight problem orientation, focus on solving the problems that restrict the construction of a new development pattern and the promotion of high-quality development, the pain points and difficulties in the development environment and people's livelihood, and the focus and hot issues that are contrary to social fairness and justice, effectively prevent and resolve major risks, and continuously add momentum and vitality to economic and social development; etc. These important expositions have profoundly answered the major question of how to enhance the endogenous momentum and vitality of high-quality development through comprehensive deepening of reform.

——"Developing new quality productivity is the inherent requirement and important focus of promoting high-quality development". General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that after the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Party Central Committee, based on the overall situation of promoting high-quality development, clearly proposed to accelerate the development of new quality productivity; high-quality development requires the guidance of new productivity theory, and new quality productivity has been formed in practice and demonstrated a strong driving force and support for high-quality development. We need to summarize and generalize it theoretically to guide new development practices; in general, new quality productivity is an advanced productivity quality that plays a leading role in innovation, breaks away from the traditional economic growth mode and productivity development path, has high-tech, high-efficiency and high-quality characteristics, and conforms to the new development concept; the salient feature of new quality productivity is innovation, which includes both innovation at the technical and business model level and innovation at the management and institutional level; green development is the background color of high-quality development, and new quality productivity itself is green productivity; and so on. These important expositions have profoundly answered the major question of how to promote new progress and breakthroughs in high-quality development with a new leap in productivity development.

——"The happiness and well-being of the people is the ultimate goal of promoting high-quality development". General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that we promote economic and social development in order to continuously meet the people's needs for a better life. We must focus on improving the quality and efficiency of development, better meet the people's growing needs in many aspects, and better promote the all-round development of people and the common prosperity of all people. We must closely combine high-quality development with meeting the people's needs for a better life, and promote the organic combination and mutual benefit of adhering to ecological priority, promoting high-quality development, and creating high-quality life. While promoting high-quality development and making the "cake" bigger, we must further divide the "cake" and focus on solving employment, distribution, education, medical care, housing, elderly care, childcare and other livelihood issues, so that the fruits of modernization construction can benefit all people more and more equitably, and resolutely prevent polarization. We must insist on development for the people and the sharing of development results by the people, and strive to run various livelihood undertakings and make up for the shortcomings in the field of people's livelihood in the process of promoting high-quality development; etc. These important expositions have profoundly answered the major issues of the fundamental purpose of high-quality development.

General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important expositions on high-quality development have greatly deepened our party’s understanding of the laws of economic development. They are an important part of Xi Jinping’s economic thought, enriched and developed Marxist political economics, and provided ideological guarantee for my country’s historic achievements and historic changes in economic and social development in the new era.

In 2023, the GDP will exceed 126 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 5.2%. Looking at the world, China's economic growth rate ranks among the top among major economies in the world, and its contribution to world economic growth continues to exceed 30%.

"The 10 years of the new era have been a decade in which my country's economic and social development has achieved historic achievements, undergone historic changes, and shifted to high-quality development." Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core has united and led the entire Party and the people of the whole country to fully, accurately and comprehensively implement the new development concept, comprehensively deepen reform and opening up, and focus on promoting changes in the quality, efficiency and driving force of economic development. It has solved many long-standing development problems and accomplished many major and important things that are of long-term concern. The country's economic strength, scientific and technological strength, comprehensive national strength and international influence have all leaped to a new level.

Economic strength has achieved a significant leap. Faced with a complex and severe international environment and new conditions and characteristics of economic operation, my country has maintained a reasonable growth in economic development and achieved effective improvement in quality. The total economic volume has increased from 53.9 trillion yuan in 2012 to more than 126 trillion yuan in 2023, achieving a medium-high growth rate of more than 6% per year; the per capita GDP in US dollars has increased from 6,301 US dollars to 12,681 US dollars. The price level is generally stable, the cumulative number of new urban employment has exceeded 140 million, and the balance of payments has remained basically balanced. my country's status as the world's second largest economy, the second largest consumer market, the largest manufacturing country, the largest country in goods trade, and the largest country in foreign exchange reserves has been further consolidated and improved.

The construction of an innovative country has achieved fruitful results. The innovation-driven development strategy has been deeply implemented. The ratio of R&D investment in the whole society to GDP has increased from 1.91% in 2012 to 2.64% in 2023. The scientific and technological strength is moving from quantitative accumulation to qualitative leap, and from point breakthroughs to system capacity improvement. A number of major original achievements have been made in frontier directions such as neutrino oscillation and iron-based superconductivity. The country's strategic scientific and technological strength has been continuously strengthened, and the innovation level of international science and technology innovation centers and comprehensive national science centers has continued to improve. Strategic emerging industries such as new generation information technology, biotechnology, high-end equipment, and green environmental protection have developed and grown, and digital technologies such as cloud computing, big data, blockchain, and artificial intelligence have been deeply integrated with traditional industries.

The coordination of development has been significantly enhanced. The pace of industrial transformation and upgrading has accelerated, the added value of manufacturing has remained the world's first, and the added value of the service industry has increased from 45.5% in 2012 to 54.6% in 2023. The modern infrastructure network continues to improve, and the world's most modern railway network and the most developed high-speed rail network have been built. The regional development has achieved brilliant results, and major regional strategies such as the coordinated development of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, the construction of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta, and the ecological protection and high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin have been steadily implemented. The rural revitalization strategy has been fully implemented, and the ratio of per capita disposable income of urban and rural residents has been reduced from 2.88:1 to 2.39:1. The new type of urbanization with people as the core has been deeply promoted, and the urbanization rate of permanent residents has increased from 53.1% to 66.2%.

The driving force and vitality of development are competing to burst out and flow fully. We are unswervingly deepening reform and opening up in an all-round way. The basic institutional framework in various fields has been basically established, and many fields have achieved historic changes, systematic reshaping, and overall reconstruction. The construction of a high-standard market system has been steadily advanced, and positive progress has been made in property rights protection and the construction of factor market systems. We continue to deepen the reform of streamlining administration, delegating power, combining regulation and supervision, and optimizing services. The market-oriented, law-based, and internationalized business environment is accelerating, and the construction of a unified national market is accelerating. The joint construction of the "Belt and Road" has achieved fruitful results, and an all-round, high-level open economy is accelerating. my country has signed more than 230 cooperation documents on the joint construction of the "Belt and Road" with more than 150 countries and more than 30 international organizations, and the China-Europe Express reaches more than 200 cities in 25 European countries.

Ecological and environmental protection has undergone historic, turning-point, and global changes. The concept of "green water and green mountains are gold and silver mountains" has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the battle to protect blue skies, clear waters, and clean land has achieved major strategic results. The integrated protection and systematic governance of mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes, grasslands, and deserts have been coordinated and promoted, and the river chief system, lake chief system, and wetland protection system have been gradually implemented, and the quality and stability of the ecosystem have been continuously improved. A solemn commitment has been made to "strive to achieve carbon peak by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060", the clean and low-carbon transformation of energy has been accelerated, and new steps have been taken in the comprehensive green transformation of economic and social development.

The people's sense of gain, happiness and security is more substantial, more secure and more sustainable. The largest, most powerful and most effective battle against poverty in human history has been won, and the absolute poverty problem that has plagued the Chinese nation for thousands of years has been historically solved. The growth rate of per capita disposable income of residents is basically synchronized with economic growth, and the size of the middle-income group exceeds 400 million. The level of equalization of basic public services continues to improve. In 2023, the consolidation rate of nine-year compulsory education will reach 95.7%, an increase of 3.9 percentage points from 2012. The construction of a healthy China is steadily advancing, and the multi-level medical service system is more sound. The world's largest social security network has been built, and the number of participants in basic pension insurance has increased from 790 million to 1.07 billion, and the number of participants in basic medical insurance has increased from 540 million to 1.33 billion.

The security guarantee capability has been continuously improved. Food security has been effectively guaranteed, and the 1.8 billion mu of arable land red line has been firmly maintained, achieving basic self-sufficiency in grain and absolute food security. The energy supply guarantee capability has continued to improve, and the installed capacity of wind power, solar energy, hydropower, and nuclear power under construction remains the world's largest, and the independent guarantee capability of scarce mineral resources has been further enhanced. The independent and controllable capabilities of the industrial chain and supply chain have been continuously enhanced, key industries and key areas have maintained stable operation, the supply and price stability of bulk commodities and raw materials have been strong and orderly, and the resilience of the industrial chain and supply chain has continued to improve.

The reason why my country has been able to overcome risks and challenges one after another in the new era, promote the overall improvement of economic development quality and efficiency, and continue to write the "two miracles" of rapid economic development and long-term social stability is fundamentally due to the leadership of General Secretary Xi Jinping and the scientific guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. On the new journey, we must deeply understand the decisive significance of the "two establishments", resolutely implement the "two safeguards", and firmly and forcefully complete the various goals and tasks of promoting high-quality development.

Strengthen the endogenous driving force of development through reform and opening up, and promote new progress and breakthroughs in high-quality development

"In the new journey of building a strong country and national rejuvenation, we must firmly promote high-quality development."

"Comprehensively deepen reform and opening up, and continuously enhance the endogenous driving force and vitality of development."

The development of any thing is a unity of progressiveness and tortuosity. my country has achieved remarkable results in high-quality development, but there are still many factors that restrict high-quality development. At present, the problem of unbalanced and inadequate development in my country is still prominent, and the external environment it faces is becoming increasingly complex, but the fundamentals of my country's economy, which is stable and improving in the long run, have not changed. The basic characteristics of China's economy, such as sufficient potential, great resilience, strong vitality, large room for maneuver, and many policy tools, have not changed. The various advantages and conditions for my country's development have not changed. As General Secretary Xi Jinping profoundly pointed out: "China's development has come to this day after going through various difficulties and challenges. It did not collapse because of the 'China collapse theory' in the past, and it will not peak because of the 'China peak theory' now." "We will continue to promote high-quality development and continue to promote Chinese-style modernization." "China's development prospects are bright, and we have the confidence and confidence to do so."

General Secretary Xi Jinping has a profound understanding of the time and trend of my country's high-quality development, and has scientifically applied reform and opening up, an "important magic weapon" and a "key move", to put forward a series of clear requirements on how to promote high-quality development, guiding China's development ship to continue to break through the waves under continuous pressure. This important article "Creating a New Situation for my country's High-quality Development" includes the General Secretary's important requirements.

——Achieve the "four musts". In 2023, the first year of the full implementation of the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping firmly grasped the primary task of high-quality development at the two sessions of the National People's Congress and put forward the clear requirements of the "four musts". The General Secretary emphasized that it is necessary to fully, accurately and comprehensively implement the new development concept, always grasp, measure and promote development with the inherent unity of innovation, coordination, greenness, openness and sharing; it is necessary to better coordinate the effective improvement of quality and the reasonable growth of quantity, always adhere to quality first and efficiency first, vigorously enhance quality awareness, regard quality as life, and pursue high quality; it is necessary to unswervingly deepen reform and opening up, deeply transform the development mode, promote quality change with efficiency change and power change, and accelerate the formation of a sustainable high-quality development system and mechanism; it is necessary to take meeting the people's growing needs for a better life as the starting point and foothold, continuously transform the development results into the quality of life, and continuously enhance the people's sense of gain, happiness and security.

——Further comprehensively deepen reform. We must adhere to relying on reform and opening up to enhance the endogenous driving force of development, coordinate the promotion of deep-level reform and high-level opening up, continuously liberate and develop social productivity, stimulate and enhance social vitality. This is a regular understanding of doing a good job in economic work in the new era. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that we must focus on building a high-level socialist market economic system, deepen the market-oriented reform of factors, and build a high-standard market system; we must continuously improve and implement the system and mechanism of "two unshakable" to stimulate the endogenous driving force and innovation vitality of various business entities; we must deepen the reform of the science and technology system, education system, talent system, etc., and strive to clear the bottlenecks that restrict the development of new quality productivity; we must increase the intensity of institutional opening up and create new advantages of a higher level of open economy; and so on.

——Accelerate the construction of a new development pattern. Accelerating the construction of a new development pattern is the strategic basis for promoting high-quality development. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that we must organically combine the implementation of the strategy of expanding domestic demand with deepening supply-side structural reforms, and accelerate the construction of a modern industrial system; we must insist on focusing on the development of the real economy, deeply promote new industrialization, strengthen the reconstruction of industrial bases and major technical equipment research, promote the high-end, intelligent and green development of manufacturing, vigorously develop strategic emerging industries, and accelerate the development of the digital economy; and so on.

——Develop new quality productivity in accordance with local conditions. New quality productivity can provide strong impetus and support for high-quality development. General Secretary Xi Jinping has made it clear that we should adhere to the principle of starting from reality, establishing first and then breaking, adapting to local conditions, and providing classified guidance, and continue to do a good job in innovation. In recent times, the General Secretary has repeatedly emphasized on different occasions that the development of new quality productivity does not mean ignoring or abandoning traditional industries, and we must prevent a rush and bubble, and we should not adopt a single model; the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries can also develop new quality productivity; and so on.

——Implement the requirements of high-quality development in all areas of the entire process of economic and social development. High-quality development is related to the overall situation of socialist modernization and involves all aspects of economic and social development. For example, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that "accelerating the realization of high-level scientific and technological self-reliance is the only way to promote high-quality development", requiring the acceleration of the implementation of the innovation-driven development strategy and the improvement of the science and technology evaluation system and incentive mechanism; emphasizing that "promoting agricultural modernization is an inevitable requirement for achieving high-quality development", requiring the expansion of modern development space and unblocking the industrial, agricultural, urban and rural circulation; emphasizing "promoting coordinated development of urban and rural areas", "promoting green and low-carbon economic and social development", "coordinating high-quality development and high-level security"; and so on.

——Improve the assessment and evaluation system for promoting high-quality development. Serving the people and benefiting the people is the most important political achievement. General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly emphasized the need to establish a strong performance concept of benefiting the people, and proposed that "adhering to high-quality development should become an important part of the performance concept of leading cadres." The General Secretary clearly requires that the performance assessment and evaluation methods for promoting high-quality development be improved, and that the baton role be played well, so as to promote the leadership teams at all levels to earnestly practice the correct performance concept and effectively form a correct work orientation.

"Without high-quality development, there can be no socialist modernization." On the new journey, we must thoroughly study and implement General Secretary Xi Jinping's important expositions on high-quality development, insist on high-quality development as the hard truth of the new era, fully, accurately and comprehensively implement the new development concept, comprehensively deepen reform and opening up, and constantly write a magnificent chapter in promoting high-quality development, and stride forward towards the grand goal of building a strong country and national rejuvenation.
