leading Party members’ group, the Chairpersons Council, and the Standing

Committee. Eleven study groups on Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese
Characteristics for a New Era organized 46 study sessions. In these sessions, we
conducted systematic study of Xi Jinping: The Governance of China III, studied

General Secretary Xi’s most recent speeches, and delved into the guiding principles
of the 19th CPC Central Committee’s Fifth Plenary Session, while also studying the

guidelines of the Central Conference on CPPCC Work on an ongoing basis.
We carried out extensive reading activities for National Committee members.

A total of 47 reading groups were established on different subject matters,
including the notion that lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets,
the rural revitalization initiative, the need to build a strong sense of community for

the Chinese nation, the digital economy, the history of epidemic control, and the
building of a human community with a shared future. More than 140,000

reflections on readings were shared by members, receiving over 1.1 million views
online.

We made progress in applying the results of our theoretical study and reading
activities. We publicized National Committee members’ important opinions and
suggestions through news bulletins, reports on reading activities, and leaflets

containing selected articles; and disseminated consensus through new-media
platforms. The online column on studying the Civil Code got 60 million hits. In this

way, we promoted self-teaching, consultation, and discussion among CPPCC
members, which enabled them to give better guidance to different social sectors.
Our reading activities have helped foster a culture of reading both within the

CPPCC and in society at large.
Through continuous learning, we have enhanced our consciousness of the

need to maintain political integrity, think in big-picture terms, follow the
leadership core, and keep in alignment with the central Party leadership; increased

our confidence in the path, theory, system, and culture of socialism with Chinese
characteristics; and stiffened our determination to uphold General Secretary Xi

Jinping’s core position on the CPC Central Committee and in the Party as a whole,
and to uphold the CPC Central Committee’s authority and its centralized, unified
leadership. The CPPCC has thus been able to better fulfill its role as an important
