The promotion and expansion of Chinese path to modernization is not accidental, but determined by China's historical heritage and cultural traditions. It is deeply rooted in China's excellent traditional culture

The "Sunbird" unearthed in Jinsha Site, the "Splendid Road" with the image of Shu brocade and Shu embroidery, the famous painting of the Song Dynasty "Sketch Map of Sichuan Scenery", the Oriental Shu School Guqin... At the opening and closing ceremony of the 31st Summer Universiade, tradition and modernity shook hands, history and today blended, so that the world could see the unique charm of the long history of Chinese civilization, and also let people feel the profound cultural heritage of Chinese path to modernization.

The Chinese civilization embodies the deepest spiritual pursuit of the Chinese nation, and is a rich nourishment for the continuous growth and development of the Chinese nation.On the new journey, if we insist on walking our own path well, we must achieve spiritual independence and autonomy with a high degree of cultural confidence. We must deeply understand that the modern civilization of the Chinese nation we are building will inevitably continue the spiritual bloodline of this country and nation, and need to be passed down and guarded from generation to generation. We need to keep up with the times and be brave in innovation.

Only when a tree has roots can it grow; Only when water is active can it surge. Each country and ethnic group has different historical traditions, cultural accumulation, and basic national conditions, and their development path must have its own characteristics. In the long process of history, the Chinese nation, with the determination and will to strive for self-improvement, has traversed mountains and rivers, and gone through a development process different from other civilizations in the world, creating a unique and brilliant culture. Ruins such as Liangzhu in Yuhang, Zhejiang, Taosi in Xiangfen, Shanxi, Shenmu Shimao in Shaanxi, and Erlitou in Yanshi, Henan, as well as unearthed cultural relics such as bronze artifacts, jade artifacts, oracle bone inscriptions, and ancient classics such as the Four Books and Five Classics, Records of the Grand Historian, and Book of Han... On vast land, in urban context, in historical classics, and in daily life, Chinese culture has a long and enduring history, which also makes people realize that the Chinese nation is a nation with unique character, and Chinese civilization is a civilization with its own system. The unique cultural traditions, historical destiny, and basic national conditions determine that we must inevitably take a development path that suits our own characteristics. The promotion and expansion of Chinese path to modernization is not accidental, but determined by China's historical heritage and cultural traditions. It is deeply rooted in China's excellent traditional culture, has deep historical origins, cultural heritage, and highlights the continuity of Chinese civilization.

Not forgetting the past can open up the future, and being good at inheritance can lead to better innovation.

Today, the essence of China's excellent traditional culture has been deeply integrated into the Chinese characteristics of Chinese path to modernization. The modernization with a huge population draws cultural inspiration from the principles of "the vastness of heaven and earth, the priority of Li Yuan" and "the value of the people"; The modernization of common prosperity for all people reflects the political ideal of "the way of governing the country, enriching the people as the beginning", "not suffering from poverty but inequality", and "not suffering from poverty but anxiety"; The modernization that coordinates material civilization and spiritual civilization highlights the spiritual pursuit of "knowing etiquette when the granary is solid, and knowing honor and disgrace when the clothing and food are sufficient"; The modernization of harmonious coexistence between humans and nature embodies the ancient wisdom of "the Tao follows nature" and "the unity of heaven and humanity"; The modernization that follows the path of peaceful development is in line with the worldview of "universal harmony" and "harmony among nations". In the blend of ancient and modern times, Chinese path to modernization has successfully continued the ancient civilization, so that we can use the wisdom and strength of mankind today, as well as the wisdom and strength accumulated and stored in the history of the Chinese nation when solving the modernization problems facing mankind. The extensive, profound, brilliant and splendid traditional Chinese culture has provided fertile soil for the modernization of Marxism in China and profound ideological resources and spiritual impetus for Chinese path to modernization. Practice has taught us that to open up and develop socialism with Chinese characteristics based on the profound foundation of over 5000 years of Chinese civilization, the "two combinations" are the necessary path.

The 20th CPC National Congress has drawn a grand blueprint for building a socialist modern country in an all-round way and comprehensively promoting the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese path to modernization. After a long period of struggle, our Party's understanding of the laws of Chinese path to modernization has deepened day by day, which has not only initially constructed the theoretical system of Chinese path to modernization, but also made Chinese path to modernization "clearer, more scientific, more sensible and feasible". At the same time, it should be noted that promoting Chinese path to modernization is an unprecedented pioneering undertaking, with unprecedented difficulty and complexity. It puts forward higher requirements for promoting industry, cultivating talent, establishing heart and forging soul with literature. Standing at a new historical starting point, we must adhere to the "two combinations", strengthen historical confidence and cultural confidence, adhere to the principle of making the past serve the present and bring forth the new, use Marxism to activate the outstanding factors full of vitality in the excellent traditional Chinese culture and give new era connotation, inject the great spirit and rich wisdom of the Chinese nation into Marxism at a deeper level, and effectively connect the essence of Marxism with the essence of the excellent traditional Chinese culture.

The long river of history flows endlessly, and the Chinese cultural heritage extends endlessly.Wandering around, the General Secretary sighed: "The Chinese civilization has a long history and has never been interrupted. It has shaped our great nation, and this nation will continue to be great." Absorbing the cultural nutrients accumulated by the long struggle of the Chinese nation, and firmly moving forward along the "only correct path to building a strong country and national rejuvenation", the CPC and the Chinese people in the new era will be able to shoulder a new cultural mission and build the modern civilization of the Chinese nation in the process of promoting Chinese path to modernization.
