Members of the Communist Youth League, young friends and comrades: Youth breeds infinite hope, and youth creates a better tomorrow. A nation can only thrive if it hopes to be young and remain young forever. Today, we gather here to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Youth League of China, which is to encourage the Youth League members to forge ahead bravely on the new journey of realizing the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. First of all, on behalf of the Party Central Committee, I would like to extend warm congratulations and sincere greetings to all members of the Communist Youth League, Communist Youth League organizations and League cadres at all levels! Members of the Communist Youth League, young friends and comrades! The Chinese nation is not only an ancient nation with a long history and full of vicissitudes, but also a young nation with constant self-improvement and vitality. In more than 5000 years of long-standing civilization, the Chinese nation has always had the tradition of "heroes from ancient times come out of youth", always had the feeling of "the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead", always had the belief that "youth is strong, the country is strong, and youth progress is the country's progress", and always had the expectation of "hope is placed on you". For thousands of years, the power, surging and creation of youth have always been the majestic force to promote the Chinese nation to move forward bravely and stand tall in the forest of nations in the world! The fate of youth has always been closely linked with the times. After the Opium War in 1840, China gradually became a semi colonial and semi feudal society. The country was humiliated, the people suffered and civilization was covered in dust. The Chinese nation suffered unprecedented disasters. Batch after batch of people with lofty ideals have been searching hard to save the country and the people, and a large number of advanced young people have awakened in the "awakening era". The Great May 4th Movement promoted the spread of Marxism in China, opened the prelude to the new democratic revolution, and also marked that Chinese youth became the vanguard of promoting China's social reform. Once the power of youth is awakened and advanced ideas are spread, the land of China will quickly show a vigorous new revolutionary atmosphere. In the close combination of Marxism Leninism and the Chinese workers' movement, the Communist Party of China came into being. Once the Communist Party of China was born, it paid attention to the youth and placed the hope of revolution on the youth. The first National Congress of the Communist Party of China has specially studied the establishment and development of the Youth League as the party's preparatory school. On May 5, 1922, under the direct care and leadership of the Communist Party of China, the Communist Youth League of China was established. This is a milestone in the history of Chinese revolution and youth movement! It is the original mission of the Communist Youth League to unswervingly follow the party and strive for the party and the people. Over the past 100 years, under the strong leadership of the party, the Communist Youth League has never forgotten its original heart, kept its mission firmly in mind, walked in the forefront of young people, organized and guided generation after generation of young people to strengthen their faith, closely followed the party, contributed to the struggle for national independence, the liberation of the people, the prosperity and strength of the country and the happiness of the people, and composed an exciting youth movement in the process of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. During the period of the new democratic revolution, the Communist Youth League widely spread Marxism, inspired young people to awaken with advanced ideas, gathered youth strength, United and led the Youth League members to actively participate in the anti imperialist and anti feudal workers' movement, farmers' movement and students' movement, actively participated in the revolutionary armed forces led by the party, and stormed the front in the great struggle to overthrow warlords, resist Japan and save the nation and overthrow the reactionary rule of the Kuomintang, showing that they are not afraid of sacrifice The spirit of bloody struggle. The broad masses of Young League members are loyal to the party, have withstood the test of life and death, and have contributed their youth and made important contributions to the victory of the Chinese revolution! During the period of socialist revolution and construction, the Communist Youth League actively participated in the most extensive and profound social changes in the history of the Chinese nation, formed youth commandos, youth reclamation teams and youth literacy teams, carried out activities to learn from Lei Feng, United and led the youth of the league members, inspired the pride of "daring to teach the sun and the moon for a new day", shouted the loud slogan of "dedicating youth to the motherland", marched towards science, difficulties and wastelands, Show the spirit of daring to work hard and hard.

Where it is most difficult, there is the banner of the league, and where there is need, there is the figure of Youth League members, who have contributed their youth and made important contributions to the construction of the motherland! In the new era of reform, opening up and socialist modernization, the Communist Youth League has adapted to the strategic shift of the party and the state's work center, emancipated the mind, made progress with determination, and widely carried out a large number of creative activities with a strong youthful flavor, such as striving to be the commando of the new Long March, "five stresses, four beauties and three loves", the hope project, young volunteers, the youth civilization, and protecting the mother river, Unite and lead the Youth League members to issue the strong voice of the times of "unite and revitalize China", bravely stand at the forefront of all fronts of modernization, and show the spirit of daring to break new ground and lead the trend.

Comrades and Youth League members! The more we move forward and climb up, the more we should be good at drawing wisdom, boosting confidence and increasing strength from the road we have traveled. Over the past 100 years, the Communist Youth League has firmly adhered to its ideals and unswervingly formed valuable experience. This is an important principle for the Communist Youth League to face the future and make new contributions. —— The Centennial journey has shaped the foundation for the Communist Youth League to adhere to the party's leadership. Without the Communist Party of China, there would be no Communist Youth League of China. Since its birth, the Communist Youth League has taken the party's banner as its banner, the party's will as its will and the party's mission as its mission. It has deeply integrated adhering to the party's leadership into its blood and formed its fundamental characteristics and distinct advantages different from other youth organizations. Listening to the party and following the party has always been the political life of the Communist Youth League. It has always been the political belief of the Communist Youth League members from generation to generation that the party has a call and the league has action. History has fully proved that only by adhering to the party's leadership can the Communist Youth League unite and lead the youth forward and promote the Chinese youth movement in the correct political direction. —— The Centennial journey has shaped the political soul of the Communist Youth League in adhering to its ideals and beliefs. The Communist Youth League organizes young people, which is a combination of firm faith and scientism inspired by ideals and beliefs. The first National Congress of the Communist Youth League clearly put forward the lofty ideal of building a communist society, lit the bright banner of socialism, lit the lamp of ideal and sent out the light of faith in the hearts of young people from generation to generation, which is the most fundamental and lasting cohesion of the Communist Youth League. History has fully proved that only by always holding high the banner of communism and socialism can the Communist Youth League form the strongest unity, forge the most effective organization, and always unite young people under the banner of the party's ideals and beliefs. —— The hundred year journey has shaped the efforts of the Communist Youth League to devote itself to national rejuvenation. The theme of the party's struggle is the direction of the league's action. The Communist Youth League closely adheres to the central tasks of the party in different historical periods, unites and leads the Youth League members to actively participate in the magnificent practice of the people, bravely be the vanguard and devote themselves in the journey of national rejuvenation, give full play to the role of a new force and commando, and make the realization of national rejuvenation a consistent and broad mainstream of China's youth movement. History has fully proved that only by firmly grasping the theme of striving for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation can the Communist Youth League unite all youth forces that can be united and sing a magnificent song of youth. —— The Centennial journey has shaped the source of vitality for the Communist Youth League to take root in the majority of young people. After a century of vicissitudes, the Communist Youth League is rejuvenated. What it relies on is to always take root in the majority of young people, always focus its work on the broadest number of workers, peasants, young people and ordinary young people, closely connect their hearts with young people, and stick their hearts with the party. History has fully proved that only by constantly drawing nutrients and strength from the fertile land of the vast number of young people can the Communist Youth League become a trusted, reliable and inseparable person for the vast number of young people. Members of the Communist Youth League, young friends and comrades! Under the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China, the people of all ethnic groups across the country have united as one and made concerted efforts to successfully achieve the first Centennial goal, build a moderately prosperous society in all respects on the land of China, and are moving forward in high spirits towards the second Centennial goal of building a powerful socialist modern country in all respects. Realizing the Chinese dream is a historical relay race, and contemporary youth should strive to be the first on the track of national rejuvenation. The times always entrust the historical responsibility to the youth. Chinese youth in the new era are born at the right time and shoulder heavy responsibilities. The stage for displaying their talents is incomparably broad, and the prospect of realizing their dreams is incomparably bright. At the meeting to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, representatives of the Communist Youth League and young pioneers loudly shouted the youth oath of "please rest assured that the party has me in a powerful country". This is not only what Chinese teenagers should look like in the new era, but also what the party's youth organizations must look like. On the new journey, how to better unite, organize and mobilize young people to strive for the realization of the second Centennial goal and the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is a major issue that must be answered by China's youth movement and youth work in the new era. The Communist Youth League should enhance its leadership, organization and service, unite and lead the youth of the league members to grow into good young people in the new era who have ideals, dare to take responsibility, can bear hardships and are willing to struggle, stir up the surging spring tide of national rejuvenation with the initiative and creativity of youth, and strive to build a better China with the wisdom and sweat of youth! Here, let me give the Communist Youth League some hope. First, adhere to educating people for the party and always become a political school leading the ideological progress of Chinese youth. Ambition is high, you can climb high and look far from the distance, and only with the world in mind can you expand your ambitions. Fiery youth needs firm ideals and beliefs. Our party named the regiment after "communism", which is hope
