The 10th issue of "Qiushi" magazine published on May 16 published an important article by Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee, President of the People's Republic of China, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission, "Persist in Implementing the Spirit of the Central Eight Regulations and Leading the Social and People's Style with Excellent Party Style." This is an excerpt from General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important statements from December 2012 to March 2025.

The article emphasizes that the issue of party style is related to the life and death of the ruling party. Style construction concerns whether our party can rule for a long time and fulfill its governing mission. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, we have faced the various problems and drawbacks within the Party, solved the problem by formulating and implementing the eight central regulations, solved the problem of what to do and how to focus on work style construction under the new situation, and promoted comprehensive and strict governance of the Party. After the revolutionary forging of comprehensive and strict governance of the Party in the new era, the situation of loose discipline and floating work style has changed significantly. The atmosphere of real and strict management, daring to manage and strict management, and long-term management has basically been formed. The party style and government style have been completely renewed, and the social style and people have continued to improve, reshaping the image of the Party in the hearts of the people.

The article points out that the guiding ideology of the eight regulations is strict requirements, reflecting that the Party must manage and govern the Party strictly, and start from the Political Bureau of the Central Committee to improve its work style. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Political Bureau of the Central Committee has taken the lead in improving work style and strictly implemented the eight central regulations, which is to set a good example for the whole party to improve work style with practical actions. Leading cadres at all levels should lead from top to bottom, lead from top to bottom, and do it for the next level to show it, and consciously play a leading role in demonstration. As long as we take action, there will be no problem that cannot be solved.

The article points out that the issue of work style is essentially a problem of party spirit. The "Four Evils" issue is fundamentally deviating from the party spirit and losing its purpose. To strengthen work style construction, we must closely follow the key of maintaining the flesh-and-blood ties between the Party and the people, persevere in implementing the spirit of the Central Eight Regulations, continue to deepen the rectification of the "four winds", resolutely prevent the emergence of "fatigue syndrome", and fight against unhealthy trends such as hedonism and extravagance, and always be prevented from the invisible and mutated new trends of the "four winds" and never allow rekindling! We must place the correction of formalism and bureaucracy in a more prominent position, as a key task in style construction, study targeted measures, scientific and precise targeted rectification, take real action and strive for practical results. As long as you have the spirit of rolling stones up the mountain and the courage to climb the hills and cross the hurdles, maintain your determination, do not give in, deepen rectification, and achieve results, you can achieve clear disadvantages and clear winds and clear rivers step by step.

The article emphasizes that style construction is always on the road and is not completed. The formulation and implementation of the eight central regulations is our party’s move to establish trust in the new era. We must always work hard and work hard for a long time. If ten years are not enough, twenty years will be, and if twenty years are not enough, thirty years will be, until the customs are truly transformed into customs and lead the social and folk customs with good party style. We must keep track of the spirit of leaving marks on stones and marking iron, and start and end well, and do things well. The Party Central Committee decided to carry out study and education on thoroughly implementing the spirit of the Central Eight Regulations throughout the Party, which is a key task of party building work this year. Party organizations at all levels should carefully organize and implement it, promote party members and cadres to strengthen their determination and develop habits, and use excellent work style to unite their hearts and minds and work and start businesses.
