accurate grasp of the new stage of development is based on an accurate understanding of the primary stage of socialism. as general secretary xi jinping has pointed out, "the new stage of development is a stage in the primary stage of socialism, and a stage in which, after decades of accumulation, we have reached a new starting point. this shows that: on the one hand, to accurately grasp the new stage of development must be based on the primary stage of socialism, the new stage of development is contained in the primary stage of socialism, is a period of the primary stage of socialism, is not divorced from the primary stage of socialism; on the other hand, after decades of development, the primary stage of socialism has entered a new stage at a new starting point. the positioning of the new stage of development provides a fundamental basis for the party to define its central tasks for the current stage and formulate its line, principles and policies.
in the mid-1950s, china's per capita gdp was just over $100. in the early days of reform and opening up, per capita gdp was just over $200; by the end of the 20th century, it had reached 1,000 us dollars through hard work. in the 21st century, china's per capita gdp reached us $3,000 in 2006, ranking among middle-income countries. by 2020, per capita gdp will reach us $10,000, and total gdp will exceed 100 trillion yuan. it is fair to say that we now have a solid material foundation to embark on a new journey and achieve new and higher goals. the fifth plenary session of the 19th central committee of the communist party of china has made it clear that china will basically realize the long-term goal of socialist modernization in 2035. by then, china's economic strength, scientific and technological strength, comprehensive national strength will jump substantially, economic aggregate and per capita income of urban and rural residents will step up to a new level, and per capita gdp will reach the level of moderately developed countries. from a difficult start to a new era, from a new century to a new starting point and a new stage, the primary stage of socialism is the result of the party leading the people through thick and thin, overcoming difficulties, forging ahead, and continuing to struggle. this process of development has been positive and full of vitality. in just a few decades, the whole party and the people of all ethnic groups in china completed the process of industrialization that took developed countries several hundred years to complete. in just a few decades, we have solved the problem of absolute poverty that had remained unsolved for thousands of years in chinese history. we have created miracles through hard work, wisdom and courage.
to accurately grasp the new stage of development, we need to focus on achieving the goal of the great renewal of the chinese nation. as xi jinping has pointed out, "the new stage of development is a new stage in which our party is leading the people in making a historic leap from standing up, getting rich to becoming strong." at the fifth plenary session of the 19th cpc central committee, it was pointed out that after completing the building of a moderately prosperous society in all respects and achieving the first centenary goal, we should build on the momentum and embark on a new journey towards the second centenary goal of building a modern socialist country in all respects. we have entered a new stage of development, and unprecedented prospects await us for the great renewal of the chinese nation. at the same time, the rejuvenation of the chinese nation will not be easy or easy to achieve. on the road ahead, we may encounter storms and tempests.our challenges are unprecedented, and we must not slack off on our tasks. xi jinping stressed, "as the principal contradiction facing chinese society changes and the balance of international forces profoundly readjusts, we must be more mindful of potential dangers, think bottom-line, and be ready to deal with ever more complex and difficult situations." this requires us, on the basis of accurately grasping the new stage of development, to enhance our awareness and capability of struggle, and to be ready to carry out a great struggle with many new historical features.
