President Xi Jinping recently took a stroll through east China's Anhui Province, urging the region to pen its own epic in the story of Chinese modernization. 🎉🚀
From October 17 to 18, Xi, who is also the general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, visited the cities of Anqing and Hefei. He didn't just see the sights; he connected with locals, explored historical alleys, and checked out cutting-edge tech. Talk about multitasking! 📚🤖
At Liuchi Alley in Tongcheng City, Xi learned about the cool story of neighbors moving their walls to resolve disputes way back in the Qing Dynasty. Sounds like the OG of friendly neighborhood vibes! 🏘️❤️ He emphasized keeping these cultural treasures alive, saying they lay a solid foundation for social harmony.
In Hefei Binhu Science City, Xi got up close with some next-gen tech—think AI, new energy, and life sciences. He was all about that innovation life, highlighting that science and technology are the engines driving China's future. 🔬✨ \"High-tech isn't something you can beg for or borrow,\" he said. \"We need to speed up and stand on our own two feet!\"
Xi didn't stop there. He called on Anhui to go green, be bold in reforms, and open up even more to the world. He wants the province to be a hub for sci-tech innovation, emerging industries, and green transformation. 🌱🌍
He also chatted about boosting the real economy, supporting talent, and making sure rural and urban areas develop hand-in-hand. It's all about that balanced growth! 💪🏽🏙️🌾
As the visit wrapped up, Xi stressed the importance of achieving economic and social goals for the year. With such high ambitions, Anhui is definitely a province to watch! 👀🔥
