The Party led the people to successfully create, promote and expand Chinese path to modernization | socialism | China
Realizing modernization is a symbol of the development and progress of human civilization, and a common goal pursued by countries around the world. The Chinese nation has created a brilliant and long-standing Chinese civilization, standing out and leading the way in the world's civilization garden, making indelible contributions to the progress of human civilization. However, in the tide of world modernization, industrialization, and modernization, China gradually fell behind, especially after the Opium War in 1840, China gradually became a semi colonial and semi feudal society. The country suffered humiliation, the people suffered hardships, and civilization was shrouded in dust. The Chinese nation suffered unprecedented disasters. Since then, achieving the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation has become the greatest dream of the Chinese people and the Chinese nation. The historical issues and historical conditions faced by China after modern times determine that the realization of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and the modernization of China, as well as the exploration of the path to the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and the exploration of the path to modernization of China, are advancing together.
Since its establishment, our party has united and led the people, tirelessly striving to explore the path of modernization in China and achieve the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and has written the most magnificent epic in the history of the Chinese nation for thousands of years. It is in these struggles and on the basis of these achievements that Chinese path to modernization has been successfully initiated, continuously promoted and expanded.
The establishment of the People's Republic of China completely ended the history of semi colonial and semi feudal society in old China, completely ended the scattered situation of old China, achieved the national independence and people's liberation that several generations of Chinese people had dreamed of, and made billions of Chinese people the masters of the country, society, and their own destiny. From then on, the Chinese people stood up and opened a new era in Chinese history. On October 1, 1949, 300000 soldiers and civilians in the capital participated in the founding ceremony at Tiananmen Square, celebrating the birth of New China. Shen Jizhong

National independence, people's liberation, and social stability are the basic prerequisites for modernization construction. A country that is subject to exploitation, fragmentation, and social unrest is difficult to carry out sustained and effective modernization construction, let alone achieve modernization. Comrade Mao Zedong once pointed out, "A China that is not poor or weak, but rich and strong is linked to an independent, not semi feudal, but free and democratic, not divided but unified China. In a semi colonial, semi feudal, and divided China, in order to develop industry, build national defense, benefit the people, and strive for national prosperity, many people have had such dreams for many years, but they have all been disillusioned." The Party led the people to overthrow imperialism, feudalism, and bureaucratic capitalism, and won the victory of the New Democratic Revolution, completely ending the history of old China's semi colonial and semi feudal society. China has achieved a great leap from thousands of years of feudal autocracy to people's democracy, and the Chinese people have stood up since then. It is in such an independent, free, democratic and unified new China that the Chinese people who have turned over as masters, under the leadership of the CPC, can start the historical process leading to modernization.

After the establishment of the People's Republic of China, on the basis of healing the wounds of war and restoring the development of the national economy, the Party promptly promoted the transformation from New Democracy to socialism, carried out socialist transformation, eliminated the feudal system that had lasted for thousands of years in China, established the basic socialist system, and achieved the most extensive and profound social transformation in the history of the Chinese nation. It also achieved a great leap forward for the impoverished and populous Eastern great country to step into socialist society, laying the fundamental political premise and institutional foundation for modernization construction. On this basis, the Party proposes the goal and task of achieving national industrialization and striving to build a socialist modernized strong country, leading the people to carry out comprehensive and large-scale socialist construction. After implementing several five-year plans, the industrial situation of technological backwardness and abnormal development left over from history has been preliminarily changed, and an independent and relatively complete industrial system and national economic system have been established, providing a material foundation and advancing position for modernization construction. In the process of promoting socialist construction, the Party pays attention to combining the basic principles of Marxism with China's specific realities for the second time, exploring the correct path of building socialism that is suitable for China's situation, and deeply summarizing the positive and negative experiences. It has put forward a series of important ideas on socialist construction, formed many original theoretical achievements, and provided valuable experience and theoretical preparation for carrying out modernization construction in the new historical period.
