In a new article set to appear in the ninth issue of Qiushi Journal, Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, the Chinese president and chairman of the Central Military Commission, calls on young people to take the lead in driving the ongoing modernization of the Chinese mainland.
Xi emphasizes that the energy and creativity of a new generation can be a powerful force for change. He urges young innovators, entrepreneurs, and changemakers to embrace responsibility, think boldly, and collaborate across sectors.
This call comes at a moment when digital transformation, sustainable development, and global partnerships are redefining what modernization looks like. From green-tech startups to cross-border cultural exchanges, young leaders are already shaping projects that blend tradition with cutting-edge progress.
For globally minded youth—from business enthusiasts and thought leaders to sports fans and digital nomads—Xi’s message highlights a shared opportunity: to bring fresh perspectives, drive real-world impact, and connect communities across borders. As he writes, "The future belongs to youth who dare to take responsibility."
Whether you’re launching a tech venture, advocating for sustainability, or exploring new cultures, the vision for modernization outlined by Xi Jinping offers a roadmap: lead with courage, innovate with purpose, and build bridges that span the globe.
