Make a decisive decision to build a moderately prosperous society in all respects and start a new journey of building a socialist modern country in all respects
Based on a comprehensive analysis of the international and domestic situation and China's development conditions, we can divide it into two stages from 2020 to the middle of this century. In the first stage, from 2020 to 2035, on the basis of building a moderately prosperous society in all respects, we will work for another 15 years to basically realize socialist modernization. In the second stage, from 2035 to the middle of this century, on the basis of basically realizing modernization, we will strive for another 15 years to build China into a strong, prosperous, democratic, culturally advanced, harmonious and beautiful modern socialist country.
Implement the new development concept and build a modern economic system
To achieve the "Two Centenary Goals", realize the Chinese Dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, and constantly improve people's living standards, we must unswervingly regard development as the first priority of the Party in governing and rejuvenating the country, adhere to the liberation and development of social productive forces, adhere to the direction of socialist market economy reform, and promote sustained and healthy economic development. China's economy has changed from a stage of rapid growth to a stage of high-quality development, and is in the critical period of transforming the development mode, optimizing the economic structure, and transforming the growth impetus. Building a modern economic system is an urgent requirement to cross the threshold and the strategic goal of China's development.
Improve the system of people's ownership and develop socialist democracy
China is a socialist country under the people's democratic dictatorship led by the working class and based on the alliance of workers and peasants. All state power belongs to the people. Our socialist democracy is the broadest, truest and most effective democracy to safeguard the fundamental interests of the people. To develop socialist democracy is to reflect the will of the people, protect their rights and interests, stimulate their creative vitality, and ensure that the people are masters of the country with the system. The path of political development of socialism with Chinese characteristics is the inevitable result of the historical logic, theoretical logic and practical logic of the Chinese people's long-term struggle since modern times. It is also the inevitable requirement to adhere to the essential attribute of the Party and practice its fundamental purpose.
Strengthen cultural confidence and promote the prosperity of socialist culture
Culture is the soul of a country and a nation. Culture revitalizes the country, and culture strengthens the nation. Without a high level of cultural self-confidence and cultural prosperity, there will be no great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. We should adhere to the path of socialist cultural development with Chinese characteristics, stimulate the cultural innovation and creativity of the whole nation, and build a socialist cultural power. The socialist culture with Chinese characteristics originates from the excellent traditional Chinese culture nurtured by the 5000 year civilization history of the Chinese nation, is forged in the revolutionary culture and advanced socialist culture created by the people under the leadership of the Party in the process of revolution, construction and reform, and is rooted in the great practice of socialism with Chinese characteristics.

Accelerate the reform of ecological civilization system and build a beautiful China
Man and nature are a community of life. Man must respect nature, conform to nature and protect nature. Only by following the laws of nature can human beings effectively prevent detours in the development and utilization of nature. The damage to nature by human beings will eventually hurt human beings themselves, which is an irresistible law. The modernization we want to build is the modernization of harmonious coexistence between man and nature. We should not only create more material and spiritual wealth to meet the people's growing needs for a better life, but also provide more high-quality ecological products to meet the people's growing needs for a beautiful ecological environment. We must adhere to the principle of giving priority to conservation, protection and natural recovery, and form a spatial pattern, industrial structure, production mode and lifestyle of conserving resources and protecting the environment.

Solving the Taiwan question and realizing the complete reunification of the motherland are the common aspiration of all Chinese people and the fundamental interests of the Chinese nation.
