It marked the start of the 14th Five-Year Plan (FYP) period (2021-2025). It was also a year during which the time frames for materializing <span class=\"xn-location\">China&#8217;s<\/span> two centenary goals \u2013 building a moderately prosperous society in all respects and building a great modern socialist country in all respects \u2013 made their historic convergence.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The past year has been a year of exceptional significance,&#8221; said Chinese President Xi Jinping in his 2022 New Year address.<\/p>\n<p>How did <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> make full preparations last year to embark on a new journey to build a modern socialist country?<\/p>\n<p><b>A good start <\/b><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">China&#8217;s<\/span> gross domestic product (GDP) exceeded the <span class=\"xn-money\">100-trillion-yuan<\/span> (about <span class=\"xn-money\">$15.42 trillion<\/span>) threshold in 2020, official data released on <span class=\"xn-chron\">January 18, 2021<\/span> showed.<\/p>\n<p>In early January, Xi, also general secretary of the CPC Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, addressed a study session at the Party School of the CPC Central Committee. <\/p>\n<p>He called on the over 190 provincial and ministerial-level officials in attendance to strive for a good start in fully building a modern socialist country.<\/p>\n<p>About two weeks later, chairing a group study session of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, Xi reiterated the need to ensure sound economic and social development, as the &#8220;first step&#8221; of the 14th Five-Year Plan was crucial.<\/p>\n<p>Later in March, <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> unveiled the final version of its national development blueprint for the next five and 15 years, with focuses on sustainable economic growth, the &#8220;dual circulation&#8221; economic growth pattern, innovation-driven industrial systems and rural area development.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Throughout the year, we have put in our efforts, contributed our part, and received much in return,&#8221; Xi said when sending New Year greetings to the Chinese people. <\/p>\n<p><b>The guidance of new development philosophy<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Compared with previous five-year plans (FYPs), the 14th FYP conveys a new development paradigm \u2013 no numerical GDP growth target but more focus on balanced and sustainable development with the domestic market as the mainstay. <\/p>\n<p>The new development philosophy is based on an innovative, coordinated, green, open and shared development that will guide and pave the way for putting high-quality development in practice. <\/p>\n<p>Putting innovation at the center of its modernization drive, <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> made various scientific and technological breakthroughs such as the launch of the crewed spaceship Shenzhou-13, the landing of the Mars probe Tianwen-1 on the red planet, advancement in the chip-making industry and leaps in quantum computing.<\/p>\n<p>In 2021, Xi inspected several sci-tech companies, where he repeatedly highlighted the importance of self-reliance and self-strengthening in high-level sci-tech innovation.<\/p>\n<p>As going green is a hallmark of high-quality development, the past year also witnessed achievements in this area. <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> has seen across-the-board improvements in its eco-environment amid the country&#8217;s intensifying efforts to spur green development, according to the China Environment Report 2020 published by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment in May.<\/p>\n<p>The ecological protection and high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin, as a major national strategy, was a vivid demonstration of <span class=\"xn-location\">China&#8217;s<\/span> endeavors in promoting ecological civilization.<\/p>\n<p>In October of last year, <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> released an outline for the Yellow River Basin&#8217;s protection and development through 2030, serving as a guide for policy-making and engineering project planning in the basin to address challenges.<\/p>\n<p>Since the 18th Communist Party of <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> (CPC) National Congress, the Chinese president has visited all of the provinces and autonomous regions in the basin, sharing his concerns about <span class=\"xn-location\">China&#8217;s<\/span> &#8220;Mother River.&#8221; In less than a year from <span class=\"xn-chron\">August 2019<\/span> to <span class=\"xn-chron\">June 2020<\/span> alone, he inspected the Yellow River Basin four times.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In the passage of time, we have seen and experienced a resilient and dynamic <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span>, a country with its amicable and respectable people, a country developing rapidly with each passing day, and a country making continual progress in all its undertakings,&#8221;
