CRNTT:

We are about to celebrate the centenary of the CPC. Do you have anything to say to the CPC? Can you share with us? Thank you.

Liu Jinhua:

This year marks the centenary of the Party. I have so much to say to the Party. I was born in 1942 to a needy peasant family in Xuchang, Henan province. My family was very poor when I was a child. My father was forced to flee home because of famine. He begged for food all the way to Zhoukou, Henan province. Later, our family all settled down in Zhoukou. It was the CPC who emancipated us and enabled me to receive an education, and later got a job, and then the opportunity to transfer to the Great Hall of the People. I have been working in the Great Hall for nearly 40 years, listening to the instructions of the older generation of proletarian revolutionaries and learning from the fearless spirit of the older generation of revolutionaries. I lived with my parents for 18 years before spending 60 years being educated by the Party in the Great Hall of the People. Today, I feel lucky that I can still sit here and communicate with you. I know that without the Party, I wouldn't be here today. Thank you.

Sui Senfang:

Over the past century, the CPC has gone through ups and downs, surmounted countless difficulties, and led our people to turn a poor and backward country into a prosperous country. One of the most important things our Party has always adhered to is its commitment to serving the people. It is precisely this people-centered philosophy that enabled us to be united during the fight against the epidemic last year, and all Party members took the lead in doing their part. Therefore, I believe that our Party will continue to serve the people and lead the country and the people to greatness.

Long Bing:

As a new Party member, I also want to speak from my heart to the Party. I'm an ordinary truck driver. I think if without the CPC, we couldn't live such a happy life today. I am very grateful to the CPC. I feel very honored to be here and meet with you today. I have been working in the freight industry for 13 years. Loading trucks was time-consuming, energy-consuming, and costly work. Now, the road conditions and the truck conditions have improved. The efficiency of transportation has also improved. We owed this to the CPC. I'm grateful to the Party and wish our country prosperity. Thank you.

Zhao Pubo:

As a member of Generation Z, I earned championships in welding at the WorldSkills Competition three years in a row, going from a small mountain village to the world stage. I know that I am lucky that to be born in a great era. The Party and country attach great importance to the training of skills. I realized my dream with the support of the Party and the country. I feel extremely proud to join the CPC ahead of the Party centennial. General Secretary Xi Jinping once said that no matter how far we travel, we should not forget what we have experienced and why we started. I will definitely keep the Party oath in mind, perform my duties as a worker, and value the oath as a motivation to march forward. I will continue to practice my welding skills and use them to serve the country and carry out my original mission. Thank you.

Shou Xiaoli:

The four Party members on the stage just shared their stories with you. No matter how many years they have been with the Party, they have not forgotten their original aspirations, kept their mission in mind, and carried forward the Party's glorious tradition and fine conduct. They stay in their posts, perform their duties, work hard, and remain dedicated, demonstrating the makings of a CPC member.

The centenary ushers in the Party's prime. As the whole Party and the country celebrate this important moment , I think everyone is in the same mood — excited, proud, and full of expectations. Here, let us wish our great Party continued youth and vitality and wish our country a prosperous and better tomorrow!

Today's press conference concludes here. Thank you all. Goodbye, everyone!
