In the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that through unremitting efforts, the Party has found the second answer to the historical cycle of governance, chaos, rise and fall, and emphasized that comprehensive and strict governance of the Party is always on the road, and the Party’s self-revolution is always on the road. The whole Party must always maintain the spirit of self-revolution, and promote the continuous and in-depth development of the Party's self-revolution with the determination of a hero to cut off his arm and persevere will.
The spirit of self-revolution is a powerful support for our party to maintain its youthful vitality. Our party has been tempered and vigorous and vigorous. One very important reason is that we have always adhered to self-revolution, from stopping "corruption on the wheel", rectifying "unhealthy trends in clubs", curbing "sky-high mooncakes" and "sky-high tobacco and alcohol", to practicing thrift and opposing waste... A set of "combination punches" of self-revolution have concentratedly solved the prominent contradictions and problems accumulated in the party for a long time, the party style, political style and social style have been completely renewed, and the clean and upright political ecology has been continuously formed and developed. Facts have proved that the spirit of self-revolution is the Party’s distinctive character and greatest advantage. Only by advancing self-revolution without hesitation, being brave to uphold the truth, correct mistakes, and daring to turn the blade inward and scrape the bone to cure the poison can the Party be maintained forever and "youth stays forever."
Self-revolution is the second answer to our party’s historical cycle of governance, chaos, rise and fall. "Its rise is brisk, and its demise is brisk." Throughout the history of the world, there are many reasons why many old parties in power that have been in power eventually go to the path of losing their power, but one thing in common is that in the long-term rule, the thoughts deteriorate, the fighting spirit becomes weak, the self is lost, and the advanced nature of leading the country and the people. "A clear mirror reflects the action, and ancient things know the present." Adhering to self-revolution is a valuable experience accumulated by our party through the painful historical lessons of other countries and summarizing the century-long struggle. It is the second answer to our party's breaking out of the historical cycle. In order to maintain the purity of the Party and advanced nature, we must continue to vigorously promote the Party’s self-revolution, always maintain the sense of crisis of being prepared for danger in times of peace, always maintain the soberness and determination of "taking the exam", and lead the social revolution with the Party’s self-revolution.
The Party’s self-revolution is always on the road. After comprehensively governing the Party with strict discipline since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, we have solved many outstanding problems within the Party and have been widely praised within the Party and outside the Party, at home and abroad. However, we must also be clear-headed that the " four major tests " and "four dangers" faced by the Party will exist for a long time. The prominent problems such as political impurity, ideological impurity, organizational impurity, and work style that exists within the Party have not been fundamentally solved. The Party's self-revolution has a long way to go. On the new journey, we must persist in advancing the Party’s self-revolution, eliminate its own cancer by self-purifying and eliminating its overall image, cultivate creative vitality through self-innovation, and develop strong skills through self-improvement, and continuously enhance the Party’s political leadership, ideological leadership, mass organization and social appeal, and provide strong political guarantees for the development of all undertakings of the Party and the country.
