General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that "Chinese-style modernization is a modernization that harmonizes material civilization and spiritual civilization, and it is necessary to carry forward the excellent traditional Chinese culture, make good use of the red culture, develop the advanced socialist culture, and enrich the spiritual and cultural life of the people", "We should protect and utilize red resources, strengthen revolutionary tradition and patriotism education, guide the cadres and masses to carry forward the fine traditions, continue the red bloodline, practice socialist core values, and cultivate a new style and new outlook for the times". Red culture is the advanced culture created and accumulated by the Chinese Communist Party under the leadership of the Chinese people in the great practice of revolution, construction and reform, and contains the powerful spiritual force that guides the Party and the people to strengthen their faith and confidence, defeat all strong enemies, overcome all difficulties and win all victories. In the new era and new journey, it is of great significance to study and implement General Secretary Xi Jinping's important exposition on making good use of red resources and continuing the red bloodline, to vigorously promote red culture, and to draw from it the spiritual impetus to make progress and unite in the fight, so as to study and implement Xi Jinping's cultural thought, and to comprehensively push forward the construction of a strong nation and the national rejuvenation with Chinese-style modernization.

General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that "red is the brightest color of the Communist Party of China and the People's Republic of China." Red culture was formed along with the spread of Marxism in China. It was created in the period of the New Democratic Revolution, developed in the period of socialist revolution and construction, flourished in the new period of reform and opening up history, and sublimated in the new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics, embodies the nature and purpose of the Party, carries the Party's original mission, and has a profound historical background and rich spiritual connotation.

Marxism is the ideological soul of red culture. Red culture, whether it contains red ideological culture, red spiritual culture, red material culture or red institutional culture, is the cultural expression of the Chinese-style of Marxism, the fruit of culture under the guidance of Chinese Marxism, and a cultural form with socialist attributes. With Marxism as the ideological soul, it determines that red culture has a distinct political stance, noble goal pursuit, profound mass foundation, and broad world bosom, and is a powerful spiritual force to promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

The spiritual genealogy of the Chinese Communist Party and the Chinese spirit are the spiritual core of red culture. The CPC is the leading force in creating and promoting red culture. The spiritual origin of the CPC deeply embodies the firm belief in Marxism and the lofty ideals of communism, concentrates on the Party's firm beliefs, fundamental purposes and excellent style, and condenses the great character of the CPC in hard work, sacrifice and dedication, and pioneering and enterprising. The Chinese people are the main force in creating and carrying forward the red culture. The national spirit centered on patriotism has always been the spiritual force that unites the Chinese nation, and the spirit of the times centered on reform and innovation has always been the spiritual force that inspires us to keep pace with the times in reform and opening up. Red culture, with the spiritual genealogy of the Chinese Communist Party and the Chinese spirit as its spiritual core, embodies the political character and sentiment of the Chinese Communist Party, and the great dreams and value pursuits of the Chinese people, and is the inexhaustible spiritual force that strengthens the Party to keep its original intention and mission in mind, and is the powerful spiritual impetus that inspires the Chinese people to advance in the new journey.

People's supremacy is the fundamental position of red culture. People's nature is the most distinctive character of Marxism, and people's position is the fundamental political position of Marxist political parties. Whether it is the turbulent revolutionary era, the period of hard work and construction, the era of passionate reform, or the magnificent new era, all the struggles of the people under the leadership of the Party are for the fundamental interests of the broadest possible number of people, and all the new cultures created under the leadership of the Party adhere to the fundamental stance of the people's supremacy. The fundamental position of the people's supremacy determines that the red culture is the common spiritual home of the Chinese people, and constantly inspires the Chinese people to struggle tirelessly for the wealth and strength of the country, the revitalization of the nation, and the happiness of the people.

Red resources are the carriers of red culture, and red genes are the code for the transmission of red culture from generation to generation. There are a lot of red resources on the vast land of more than 9.6 million square kilometers in our country, which have witnessed the arduous and brilliant struggle of our Party. Every revolutionary hero, every revolutionary spirit, every revolutionary cultural relic has enriched and expanded the red gene pool. Every revolutionary museum, memorial hall, party history museum, martyrs' cemetery, are telling the story of the party, the story of the revolution, the story of the heroes; red tourism routes, red relics and sites, are vividly spreading the red culture. The red gene has been deeply integrated into the blood and soul of the Chinese nation, inspiring and motivating the Chinese people to continuously overcome difficulties and move from victory to victory.

Entering the new era, General Secretary Xi Jinping, with a broad global vision and profound historical insight, has positioned the Party's cultural role and put forward the new cultural mission of the new era, "to continue to promote cultural prosperity, build a cultural powerhouse, and build a modern civilization for the Chinese nation from a new starting point", which has provided out the way forward for us to enhance the historical consciousness of civilization inheritance and cultural innovation, to better build the modern civilization of the Chinese nation, and to enrich and develop the new form of human civilization. The new cultural mission is a concrete embodiment of the Party's central task in the field of culture in the new era and new journey. To better shoulder the new cultural mission from a new starting point, we should study and understand Xi Jinping's cultural thought in depth, unify the promotion of red culture with the new cultural mission, and vigorously carry forward the red genes and write a new chapter of red culture.

The prerequisite for cultural prosperity is firm cultural self-confidence and the establishment of cultural subjectivity, and red culture is an important source of cultural self-confidence and an important foundation for the establishment of cultural subjectivity. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: "Cultural confidence comes from our cultural subjectivity. This subjectivity is established by the Chinese Communist Party under the leadership of the Chinese people on the Chinese land; it is established on the basis of creative transformation and innovative development of the excellent traditional Chinese culture, inheritance of the revolutionary culture, development of the advanced socialist culture, and borrowing and absorbing all the achievements of the excellent civilization of mankind; it is established by combining the basic principles of Marxism with the concrete realities of China and with the excellent traditional Chinese culture." Red culture has witnessed the history of more than a hundred years of struggle of the Party leading the people on the Chinese soil, recorded the glorious course of the Party leading the people to realize national independence and liberation of the people, the wealth and strength of the country and the happiness of the people, and is the spiritual crystallization of the combination of the basic principles of Marxism with the specific realities of China, and with the excellent traditional Chinese culture. Every theoretical achievement, every great spirit, every historical moment and every national memory contained therein is a solid cornerstone for firming cultural confidence and establishing cultural subjectivity. Vigorously inheriting the red genes and writing a new chapter on red culture is the only way to make the spiritual edifice of the Chinese nation stand tall, and to give constant impetus to the prosperity and development of socialist culture.

The fundamental guarantee for building a strong socialist culture is adherence to the Party's leadership, and red culture contains the answer to why and how to adhere to the Party's leadership. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized, "Every time I visit and research in old revolutionary areas, I go to pay homage to places commemorating the history of the revolution. My purpose is to caution the whole Party not to forget how the red regime came about, how the new China came about, and how today's happy life came about, and it is to proclaim that the CPC will always hold up the red flag, firmly follow the socialist road, and push forward the cause started by our forefathers." Red culture contains the Party's profound grasp of the laws of Communist Party rule, socialist construction and human social development, the historical, theoretical and practical logic of why the CPC is able to do, why Marxism can do what it does, and why socialism with Chinese characteristics is good, and the CPC's visionary and strategic plan to lead the people in cultural construction, which has always represented the forward direction of China's advanced culture. It also demonstrates that the CPC has always represented the forward direction of China's advanced culture and led the people in cultural construction with far-sightedness and strategic planning. Only by vigorously inheriting the red genes and writing a new chapter on red culture can we firmly grasp the Party's leadership of ideological work and build a socialist ideology with strong cohesion and leadership; only then can we undertake the mission of raising the flag, gathering people's hearts, educating new generations, promoting culture and developing images, better constructing the Chinese spirit, Chinese values, and Chinese power, and consolidating the common ideological foundation for the unity of the whole Party and the whole people of all ethnic groups.

The construction of a modern civilization for the Chinese nation must highlight Chinese characteristics, and red culture manifests the distinctive undertones of Chinese characteristics. Chinese civilization has outstanding continuity, innovation, unity, inclusiveness and peacefulness, which fundamentally determines that the Chinese nation is bound to follow its own path, determines the enterprising spirit of the Chinese nation of observing the right but not the old, respecting the ancient but not retrofitting the past, and the fearless character of the Chinese nation of not being afraid of new challenges and accepting new things, determines that a strong and unified nation changes the destiny of the people of all ethnic groups, and determines the open-mindedness of the Chinese culture to the civilizations of the world, determines that China has always been a builder of world peace, a contributor to global development, and a defender of international order, and reveals the code of inheritance of the modern civilization of the Chinese nation. At the same time, the development of red culture in recent times has greatly promoted the leap from tradition to modernity, the renewal of Chinese civilization and its modern transformation, injected modern genes into Chinese civilization, and highlighted the distinctive undertones of Chinese civilization. Only by vigorously inheriting the red genes and writing a new chapter on red culture can we further consolidate and improve the modernity of Chinese civilization and further promote the condensation and sublimation of Chinese culture and the Chinese spirit.

 The Party's history and development of the main theme and main line, the mainstream essence, with the Party's struggle and great achievements to inspire morale and guide the direction, with the Party's glorious traditions and fine style of work to strengthen faith and rally strength, with the Party's historical experience and practical creativity to inspire wisdom and mold character, education and guidance to the whole Party to always adhere to the scientific theoretical guidance, the ideals and beliefs, the original mission, the glorious revolutionary traditions, and the promotion of self-revolution, so that the red culture can glow with a more eye-catching luster of the times, and constantly carry forward the red culture under the conditions of the new era.
