Accurately recognizing change, responding scientifically and actively seeking change (people’s view)

　　The strong vitality and leading power of the supreme leader’s economic thought are embodied in responding to the changes of the times, leading the times, standing at the forefront of the times, constantly answering new questions raised by the development of the times, and constantly developing to adapt to the changes of the times.

　　The supreme leader’s economic thought clearly points out the new methods and paths of economic and social development from "how to see" to "how to do", which has injected strong confidence and motivation for successfully coping with various risks and challenges.

　　Not long ago, the semi-annual report on China’s economy was released. In the first half of this year, GDP increased by 2.5% year-on-year, and the economy achieved positive growth in the second quarter. Since the beginning of this year, the century-long changes have intertwined with the century-long epidemic. The "triple pressure" faced by China’s economy has become more prominent, and the impact of unexpected factors has suddenly increased. At the critical moment of development, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader held the flag and steered the ship, and the whole country made concerted efforts to overcome difficulties, which stabilized the basic disk of economic and social development to the greatest extent and handed over hard-won answers.

　　Great times give birth to great ideas, and great ideas lead great practice. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized at the seminar on "Learning the spirit of the important speech of the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader and Meeting the 20th Party Congress" that "having the guidance of Marxist scientific theory is our party’s distinctive political character and strong political advantage." Practice tells us that why the Communist Party of China (CPC) can and why Socialism with Chinese characteristics is good is, in the final analysis, a Marxist line. Standing at the forefront of the times, the supreme leader’s economic thoughts have insight into the times, grasped the pulse of the times, and based on the historical orientation of Socialism with Chinese characteristics entering a new era, put forward the idea of coordinating the overall situation of the great rejuvenation strategy of the Chinese nation and the great changes that have never happened in the world in a century, emphasized the need to accurately recognize changes, respond scientifically, take the initiative to seek changes, and adhere to the correct strategic strategy, which established strategic coordinates and provided strategic guidance for economic work in the new era. The strong vitality and leading power of the supreme leader’s economic thought are embodied in responding to the changes of the times, leading the times, setting the tide of the times, constantly answering new questions raised by the development of the times, and constantly developing to adapt to the changes of the times.

　　He who observes the situation is wise, and he who controls the situation wins. To do a good job in economic work, we must deeply understand the staged changes in economic development. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, we have made great judgments such as "China’s economic development has entered a new normal", "China’s development is still in an important period of strategic opportunities", and profoundly grasped the world development trend such as "economic globalization has encountered a countercurrent", "the world has undergone a great change in a hundred years to accelerate its evolution" and "development is the eternal theme of human society". The CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core stands at the height of coordinating the overall situation of the great rejuvenation strategy of the Chinese nation and the unprecedented changes in the world in the past century, coordinating the two major domestic and international situations and developing security, having a clearer understanding of the overall situation of domestic and international development, having a more accurate grasp of the new historical position of China’s development, and laying a solid foundation for making preparations and making decisions. Practice has fully proved that only by listening to the voice of the times, responding to the call of the times and seriously studying and solving major and urgent problems can we truly grasp the historical context, find the law of development and promote theoretical innovation.

　　The wise change with time, and the wise make it with things. According to the changes of China’s development stage, environment and conditions, it is emphasized that "a new development pattern with domestic large circulation as the main body and domestic and international double circulation promoting each other" will be gradually formed; In the face of the "stuck neck" problem in many fields, it is pointed out that "we must adhere to the problem orientation, give full play to the advantages of the new national system, work hard and catch up, and accelerate the realization of scientific and technological self-reliance"; In the face of "how to overcome the epidemic? How to build a post-epidemic world? " The question of this era advocates that all countries in the world "insist on tearing down the wall instead of building it, opening up without isolation, integrating without decoupling, and promoting the construction of an open world economy" … … In response to the needs of the times and scientific response to changes, the Supreme Leader’s economic thoughts clearly pointed out the new methods and new paths of economic and social development from "how to look" to "how to do", which injected strong confidence and motivation for successfully coping with various risk challenges and promoting China’s economic ship to break the waves and achieve stability.

　　When you take advantage of the situation, you can’t lose it. In adapting to the new situation, solving new problems and coping with new challenges, the supreme leader’s economic thought has formed a series of theoretical achievements with distinctive times and creativity. From creatively putting forward a major theoretical viewpoint of strengthening the Party’s overall leadership over economic work, to creatively putting forward a new development concept of innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing, and then creatively putting forward an important idea of promoting and perfecting the socialist market economic system, the supreme leader’s economic thought insists on observing, grasping and leading the times with Marxism, and insists on shooting the "right" of China’s economic development in the new era with the "arrow" of Marxist political economy, which profoundly answers many major theories and theories.

　　The better you know, the better you will do. Standing at a new historical starting point, thoroughly studying and implementing the economic thought of the Supreme Leader, with the wisdom of understanding change, the way to adapt to changes, the courage to seek change, and the hard work and courage to move forward, we will certainly be able to solidly promote stable, healthy and sustainable economic development and make new and greater contributions to building a socialist modern country in an all-round way and realizing the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
