Pay close attention to the construction of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

Building Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is a major national strategy planned, deployed and promoted by the General Secretary himself.
When he visited Guangdong in December 2012, the General Secretary hoped that Guangdong would join hands with Hong Kong and Macao to build a world-class urban agglomeration with more comprehensive competitiveness.
In July 2017, witnessed by the General Secretary, the Framework Agreement on Deepening the Cooperation between Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao and Promoting the Construction of Greater Bay Area was formally signed.
The following year, he went to Guangdong, where the General Secretary attended the opening ceremony of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge. One bridge connects three places, and the natural barrier becomes a thoroughfare.

During this year’s inspection tour in Guangdong, the first thing that the General Secretary focused on at the briefing was the construction of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
The General Secretary has given Greater Bay Area a new orientation: making it the strategic fulcrum of the new development pattern, the demonstration place of high-quality development and the leading place of Chinese modernization.

Firmly grasp the primary task of high-quality development
General Secretary of the Supreme Leader once explained what is "high-quality development" in one sentence: "More specifically, high-quality development means starting from ‘ Is there ’ Turn ‘ Ok ’ 。”
When attending the deliberation of the Jiangsu delegation last month, the general secretary emphasized firmly grasping the primary task of high-quality development, and systematically expounded the only way, strategic basis, inevitable requirements and ultimate goal of promoting high-quality development.

During this inspection tour in Guangdong, the general secretary put forward clear requirements around the primary task.
Accelerating the realization of high-level scientific and technological self-reliance is the only way to promote high-quality development. In Guangzhou Automobile Ai ‘an, the General Secretary focused on understanding the progress of enterprises in breaking through key core technologies. He pointed out at the briefing that efforts should be made to make greater progress in breaking through key core technical problems.
Accelerating the construction of a new development pattern is the strategic basis for promoting high-quality development.

Make great efforts to solve the problem of unbalanced development between urban and rural areas
Guangdong is the largest economic province in China, but it also has obvious shortcomings. When visiting Guangdong five years ago, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that the imbalance between urban and rural development is the biggest shortcoming of Guangdong’s high-quality development, and efforts should be made to turn the shortcoming into a "potential board".
During this visit to Guangdong, the General Secretary once again "took the pulse" for the unbalanced development.

First, "take the pulse" for the imbalance of regional development.
On the first day of inspection, the General Secretary came to Dashuiqiao Reservoir in xuwen county. China is short of water and the distribution of water resources is very uneven, which is also clearly reflected in Guangdong. For a long time, the drought and water shortage in Leizhou Peninsula are severe, and the per capita water resources are less than half of the national level. In August last year, Guangdong water resources allocation project around Beibu Gulf started construction. Dashuiqiao Reservoir is the contact station for this project to deliver water to the south.
In Dashuiqiao Reservoir, the general secretary said that Guangdong should do a good job in optimizing the allocation of water resources, accelerate the construction of water resources allocation projects in an all-round way, promote the solution of the imbalance of regional development, and benefit the broad masses of the people as soon as possible.

Then "take the pulse" for the imbalance between urban and rural development.
During an inspection tour of Baiqiao Village, the General Secretary said that to promote Chinese modernization, we must comprehensively promote rural revitalization and solve the imbalance between urban and rural development.
The general secretary once asked Guangdong to work hard to solve the problem of urban-rural dual structure. At the briefing, he emphasized that it is necessary to actively promote the new urbanization construction with the county as an important carrier.
Making overall plans, playing the piano well, playing a good game of chess in the whole country and coordinating development are the keys to success.

China will never close the open door by itself.
In November 2016, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader said at the APEC Leaders Summit held in Lima, Peru, "I have repeatedly stressed that the door to China’s opening will never be closed, but will only grow wider."
During his visit to Guangdong, the General Secretary reiterated that China’s reform and opening-up policy will remain unchanged for a long time, and it will never close the door to the outside world by itself. "All countries that are willing to win-win cooperation with us are willing to work with them to promote the common prosperity and development of the world economy."

The trip to Guangdong coincides with the 45th anniversary of China’s reform and opening up. The solemn declaration of the General Secretary is of unusual significance.
During LG’s inspection tour of Guangzhou manufacturing base, General Secretary said that in the case of weak global economic growth, China will accelerate the construction of a new development pattern and strengthen the construction of business environment, and its market advantage will become more obvious. It is hoped that foreign investors will seize the opportunity, deepen the China market and create new glories in enterprise development.

In February this year, the general secretary pointed out that to promote Chinese modernization, we should correctly handle a series of major relations, including the relationship between self-reliance and opening up.
During his inspection tour in Guangdong, the General Secretary once again talked about the handling of this relationship. He pointed out that the key core technologies should be based on independent research and development, and international cooperation is also welcome.
This is both an open mind and a scientific methodology.

In February, 2021, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized at the mobilization meeting of Party history study and education that all party comrades should learn history wisely, enhance their trust, respect morality and practice.
After several domestic visits, the general secretary launched "on-site teaching": in March, he explained "learning history and understanding" in Fujian; In April, he went to Guangxi to emphasize "learning history to enhance trust"; In June, I went to Qinghai to interpret "learning history and respecting morality"; In July, I went to Xizang to call for "learning history and practicing". A vivid "party history teaching class" points out the path and direction for the whole party to carry out party history study and education.

This time in Guangdong, the general secretary focused on "casting souls with learning".
The General Secretary said, to cast the soul by learning is to do a good job in deepening, internalizing and transforming Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, and to thoroughly root out the source of thought, consolidate the foundation and cultivate the yuan.
From strengthening ideals and beliefs, casting loyalty to the party, and standing firm on the people’s stand, the general secretary put forward three clear requirements.

It is an important content of this theme education to carry out investigation and research in the whole party.
At the theme education work conference, the General Secretary emphasized that, in accordance with the work plan of the CPC Central Committee on vigorously investigating and studying the whole party, party member and cadres, especially leading cadres at all levels, should be organized to dive into the front line, feel the pulse, dissect sparrows, and study new situations and solve new problems by using the Party’s innovative theory.
The general secretary’s trip to Guangdong is a demonstration of the above rate. During the inspection, the General Secretary pondered a series of major propositions and deployed a series of strategic events, leading us to forge ahead and build a strong country and a new journey of national rejuvenation.
