The outstanding achievement of Zhejiang’s "Ten Million Projects" lies in the strategic planning, care and guidance of the Supreme Leader’s General Secretary, and the scientific guidance of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era. We must have a deeper understanding of the decisive significance of the "Two Establishments", strengthen the "four consciousnesses", strengthen the "four self-confidences" and achieve the "two maintenances", effectively sum up and popularize the experience of the "Ten Million Project" in Zhejiang, learn and use it well, grasp the world outlook and methodology containing the supreme leader Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, and constantly transform it into the thinking methods and concrete results of promoting Chinese modernization.
Zhejiang Province continues to deepen the "Ten Million Projects", push forward the "new rural areas with materials" to "new rural areas with people", and strive to build the countryside into a beautiful home for farmers to live in and rely on. The picture shows that on May 26, 2023, the "Our Village Games" in Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province was held in Tangdian Village, Binhu Street, South Taihu New District.

We must adhere to the people-centered development thought and take the realization of people’s longing for a better life as the starting point and the end result.
"Ten Million Projects" originated from the profound peasant complex and sincere feelings for the people of the Supreme Leader General Secretary. Over the past 20 years, starting from the vital interests of millions of farmers in Zhejiang Province, Zhejiang has insisted that the people have a call and I have a response, constantly improving rural production and living conditions, improving farmers’ quality of life and health level, so that farmers have more sense of acquisition, happiness and security. Practice has proved that only when farmers are truly in their hearts, thinking about what farmers think, anxious about what farmers are anxious about, and constantly solving the practical problems that are the most urgent and strongly reflected by farmers, can we get the sincere support and support of the farmers and speed up the filling of the shortcomings of China’s modernization drive in agriculture and rural areas.
In the new era and new journey, we should stand firm on the people’s stand more consciously, strengthen the sense of purpose, respect the people’s wishes, take more measures to benefit the people’s livelihood and warm the people’s hearts, do everything possible to broaden the channels for farmers to increase their income and get rich, consolidate and expand the achievements of tackling poverty, make farmers’ pockets more and more bulging, and make more and more prosperous days, so as to promote the common prosperity of farmers and rural areas and make more obvious substantive progress.
We must adhere to the new development concept and comprehensively promote rural revitalization.
The sharp contrast between the rural areas before and after the implementation of the "Ten Million Projects" and the great changes in production and life brought about by the implementation fundamentally reflect the changes in development concepts and development methods. From the construction of village environment to the all-round development of rural areas, from the construction of material civilization to the construction of spiritual civilization, Zhejiang adheres to the new development concept and has embarked on a broad road towards high-quality and efficient agriculture, livable rural areas and rich farmers. Practice has proved that when the concept changes, the world becomes wider. Only by implementing the new development concept completely, accurately and comprehensively and promoting rural revitalization can we clear our minds, grasp the direction and find the right focus.
In the new era and new journey, we should take the new development concept as the guide, accelerate the construction of a new development pattern, correctly handle the major relations such as speed and quality, development and environmental protection, development and safety, strengthen mechanism innovation and factor integration, do a good job in the "five revitalization" of rural industries, talents, culture, ecology and organization, and realize a virtuous circle of agricultural production, rural construction and rural life ecology.
We must strengthen the concept of system and strive to promote the integration and development of urban and rural areas.
Since the implementation of the "Ten Million Projects" for 20 years, Zhejiang has always insisted on coordinating urban and rural development, constantly promoting the extension of urban infrastructure to rural areas, the coverage of public services to rural areas, and the flow of resource elements to rural areas, which has brought about profound changes in urban-rural relations. Practice has proved that rural areas and cities must be considered and coordinated as an organic and unified whole system, giving full play to the role of cities in promoting rural areas and rural areas in promoting cities, taking into account various factors and paying attention to multi-objective balance.
In the new era and new journey, it is necessary to systematically manipulate the urban-rural relationship, take the county as an important starting point, make overall plans and make concerted efforts, grasp key points, fill shortcomings, intensify reforms, break down institutional barriers that hinder the equal exchange and two-way flow of urban and rural factors, promote more development factors and various services to the countryside, and accelerate the formation of a new type of urban-rural relationship between workers and peasants that is mutually reinforcing, complementary, coordinated and prosperous between urban and rural areas.
We must vigorously investigate and study, think about problems, make decisions and do things from reality.
The "Ten Million Project" is a major decision made by the Supreme Leader Comrade after he went to work in Zhejiang, and spent 118 days traveling around 11 cities and villages to make a careful inspection and fully grasp the provincial and agricultural conditions. In the past 20 years, every deepening of the "Ten Million Project" is based on the results of investigation and research. Practice has proved that the correct decision-making can not be separated from investigation and study, and the correct implementation can not be separated from investigation and study. Only by learning this basic skill well can we find out the situation and identify the problems accurately, and the ideas, policies and programs put forward can conform to the actual situation, objective laws and scientific spirit.
In the new era and new journey, we should continue to strengthen and improve investigation and research, focus on promoting rural revitalization, achieving common prosperity, improving people’s livelihood and other key and difficult issues in reform, development and stability, go deep into the grassroots, grasp the facts, take the pulse, closely combine with our own reality, plan and implement targeted policy measures, and constantly break the bottleneck of contradictions and promote high-quality development.
We must focus on the grassroots, strengthen the foundation, consolidate the basic work orientation, and improve the grassroots governance system led by party organizations.
Since the implementation of the "Ten Million Projects" for 20 years, Zhejiang has grasped Party building to promote rural revitalization, given full play to the role of rural grass-roots party organizations as fighting bastions, and given full play to the leading role of village party organization secretaries and village committee directors, guiding grassroots party member cadres to be the first and the first, and uniting and leading the peasants to listen to the Party’s words, feel the Party’s gratitude and follow the Party. Practice has proved that whether the masses are rich or not depends on the branch; Whether the branch is strong or not depends on the "leader". Only by persisting in leading grass-roots governance with party building and being good at mobilizing and relying on the masses can the party’s political advantages, organizational advantages and close ties with the masses be continuously transformed into the working advantages of comprehensively promoting rural revitalization.
In the new era and new journey, it is necessary to highlight the clear orientation of grasping the grassroots, select and strengthen the leading bodies of grassroots party organizations, improve the governance system of combining autonomy, rule of law and rule of virtue under the leadership of party organizations, promote the sinking of various governance resources to the grassroots, and constantly stimulate the enthusiasm, initiative and creativity of the people, forming a good situation of cohesion and unity.
We must anchor the goal, work hard and draw a blueprint to the end.
In the past 20 years, Zhejiang has always regarded the "Ten Million Projects" as the "Top-ranking Project", maintained its strategic strength, worked one after another, achieved a phased goal, and rushed to a new goal, accumulating small victories into great victories, creating a model of continuous struggle and persistent implementation. Practice has proved that hard work can overcome difficulties and hard work can make dreams come true. We must continue to improve our work style, spend more thoughts and efforts on implementation, avoid formalism and bureaucracy, and refrain from "performance projects" and "image projects" to prevent "new officials from ignoring old scores."
In the new era and new journey, we should closely focus on the party’s central task, demonstrate the decision-making and deployment of the Party Central Committee by benchmarking, maintain historical patience, do one thing after another, and do it year after year. In particular, we should pay attention to preventing the tendency of impulsive political achievements, blind recklessness, fast work, "changing the track" and "leaving traces" that are easy to appear after the change of office, further win the hearts and minds of the party with a good style, and unite the majestic power of building a strong country and national rejuvenation.
