Our party began to explore the road of China's new-democratic revolution from 19 19, but under the interference of "left" and right opportunism, it has gone through many tortuous roads. Comrade Mao Zedong and other proletarian revolutionaries of the older generation persisted in seeking truth from facts, conscientiously summed up the lessons of repeated failures, combined the universal principles of Marxism-Leninism with the concrete practice of the China Revolution, explored a series of revolutionary theories and practices with China characteristics, such as "encircling the city from the countryside", and solved the route, principles and strategies of the China Revolution in a targeted manner, laying a solid ideological foundation for the development of the China Revolution. As early as the early 1930s, Comrade Mao Zedong explicitly opposed dogmatism and advocated the ideological line of seeking truth from facts for the first time in "Against Bookishness". During the Zunyi Meeting, the ideological line of seeking truth from facts was supported by most leaders and commanders in the Party, which became one of the keys to the success of Zunyi Meeting. The Seventh National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) established Mao Zedong Thought as the guiding ideology, and the whole party United under the banner of Marxism–Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought, winning the China Revolution and establishing the new China. As Comrade Deng Xiaoping said: "The basic point of Mao Zedong Thought is to seek truth from facts, that is, to combine Marxism–Leninism's universal principles with the concrete practice of the China Revolution. Comrade Mao Zedong wrote an inscription "Seeking Truth from Facts" for the Central Party School in Yan 'an, which is the essence of Mao Zedong Thought. Comrade Mao Zedong is so great that he can lead the China revolution to victory. In the final analysis, it is these four words. Second, seeking truth from facts is combined with the characteristic theory and practice of continuous innovation and development.

Throughout the successful experience of China's revolution and construction, it is the result of the combination of upholding and exploring the universal truth of Marxism-Leninism and the concrete practice of China's revolution, which has strong China characteristics. The cornerstone of this characteristic theory and practice is seeking truth from facts. Socialism with Chinese characteristics's theory and practice are constantly innovating and developing on this cornerstone.

In the early days of New China, everything was in ruins. Comrade Mao Zedong led the people of all ethnic groups in China to take the road that no one has taken before, adhered to the ideological line of seeking truth from facts, and explored the theory and practice of socialist construction in China; In the same spirit of seeking truth from facts, we should constantly sum up and correct the deviations and mistakes in socialist construction and strive to ensure the correct direction of China's socialist construction. Mao Zedong Thought's living soul, that is, seeking truth from facts, the mass line and independence, has become an important source of Socialism with Chinese characteristics's theoretical system. Three, China characteristic road must adhere to the ideological line of seeking truth from facts.

The report of the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China highly summarized and profoundly expounded Socialism with Chinese characteristics Road: "Socialism with Chinese characteristics Road is based on the basic national conditions, centering on economic construction, adhering to the four cardinal principles, persisting in reform and opening up, liberating and developing social productive forces, consolidating and perfecting the socialist system, building a socialist market economy, socialist democratic politics, advanced socialist culture and a harmonious socialist society, and building a prosperous, strong, democratic, civilized and harmonious socialism. It is impossible for the Party to lead the people of all ethnic groups across the country to take the characteristic socialist road, and it is bound to face difficulties and twists and turns. In order to make Socialism with Chinese characteristics's road move forward smoothly and realize the lofty goals put forward by the Party, we must constantly sum up experiences and lessons, learn to accept new things, study and solve new problems, and constantly explore the characteristic theories and practices that have never been seen before. The key lies in adhering to the ideological line of seeking truth from facts as always.

Insist on seeking truth from facts and explore the road with China characteristics with the view of history. History has proved that only by seeking truth from facts can we embark on a revolutionary road with China characteristics. History has proved and will continue to prove that only by seeking truth from facts can we embark on a road of modernization with China characteristics. To inherit and develop the ideological line of seeking truth from facts, we should pay attention to studying history and be good at summing up and innovating experience. When summing up the historical experience of the new-democratic revolution, Comrade Mao Zedong said, "We have found a way. We have two kinds of experiences, the wrong experience and the right experience. Correct experience encourages us, and wrong experience educates us. " "Human beings must constantly sum up experience, constantly discover, constantly invent, constantly create and constantly make progress. The arguments of stop, pessimism, inaction and complacency are all wrong. " Several important "decisions" made by our party at important historical moments are based on existing problems, summing up major experiences and putting forward solutions and measures, which fully demonstrates the attitude of seeking truth from facts. To take the road with China characteristics, we should pay more attention to studying the development experience at home and abroad, make the past serve the present, make foreign things serve China, respect and follow the law of development, and explore the way forward. Historical experience shows that emancipating the mind, seeking truth from facts, advancing with the times and seeking truth from facts are important ideological weapons for us to adapt to the new situation, understand new things and accomplish new tasks, and are the magic weapon for the Party to maintain its vitality forever. Adhere to this ideological line, ideological style and fundamental method, our cause will be successful and we will advance; As long as we deviate from this ideological line and style, our cause will suffer setbacks or even retrogression. Therefore, although the difficulties and problems we encounter in the new century are much bigger and more complicated than the previous paragraph. As long as we adhere to the Marxist world outlook and methodology, avoid idealism and metaphysics, persist in seeking truth from facts, be scientific and pragmatic, avoid dogmatism, subjectivism and bureaucracy, constantly emancipate our minds, keep pace with the times, and avoid complacency and conformism, the revolutionary road with China characteristics will surely advance steadily in arduous exploration and practice.

Insist on seeking truth from facts and explore the road with China characteristics from a dialectical point of view. The road with China characteristics is a brand-new development road in the world today. Without any successful experience, it is bound to be full of contradictions and problems. The key lies in whether we can observe and deal with these contradictions and problems with the correct world outlook and methodology. Seeking truth from facts is the unity of world outlook and methodology, which are embodied in development issues, that is, the concept of development. The concept of development is not only the general view of people on the development problem, but also the general method to solve the development problem, and the concrete embodiment of the world outlook and methodology on the development problem. What kind of world outlook methodology, there is what kind of development view; What kind of development concept, there will be what kind of development path, development model and development strategy. Therefore, Scientific Outlook on Development is not only the world outlook of dialectical materialism and historical materialism, but also the methodology of materialist dialectics. It not only sums up and answers the problems in China's development in a realistic way, but also answers a series of important questions such as "why to develop", "for whom to develop", "by whom to develop" and "how to develop" with the viewpoint of materialist dialectics that is comprehensive rather than one-sided, connected rather than isolated, and dynamic rather than static. Scientific Outlook on Development grasped the principal contradiction and emphasized that development is the theme of contemporary China and the top priority of our party in governing and rejuvenating the country. Guided by Scientific Outlook on Development, it is emphasized that development must be centered on economic construction, and in accordance with the requirements of "five overall plans", it is a comprehensive, coordinated and sustainable development to promote the unity of economic and social development and the all-round development of human beings and realize the coordination of economic development with population, resources and environment. Therefore, as long as we adhere to the guidance of Scientific Outlook on Development, treat Marxism with a scientific attitude of seeking truth from facts, and realize the unity of seeking truth from facts and innovation, inheritance and development, cognition and action, popularity and scientificity, and exploring truth and self-improvement, we will certainly promote the continuous innovation and development of Socialism with Chinese characteristics's theory and practice.
