《English Translation》

王明月: Teacher, have you read this article from the People's Daily? It reviews the tremendous changes in New China over the past 75 years, especially President 习近平's concept of 'Chinese-style modernization.' How do you think this concept differs from past modernization theories?
陈智高: 明月, 'Chinese-style modernization' is something we've developed through years of practice and theoretical exploration. It not only emphasizes economic development but also social equity, environmental protection, and improving the quality of people's lives. This is different from the Western model, which focuses more on capital accumulation. Our modernization emphasizes harmony and sustainability.
王明月: That's true. The article mentioned the 北盘江 Bridge, which left a deep impression on me. From a suspension bridge to the world's highest bridge, it symbolizes China's leap from being behind to leading. Teacher, how do such leaps impact our cultural confidence?
陈智高: Cultural confidence comes from two aspects: a deep understanding of history and firm confidence in the future. The 北盘江 Bridge is not just a physical bridge; it symbolizes our ability to overcome challenges and connect with the future. As President 习近平 said, this path is both a bright and just one.
王明月: That makes me think, the path is not just a physical road, but also a spiritual symbol, representing the direction in which we, as a nation, are continuously advancing.
陈智高: Exactly. Remember, 明月, Chinese-style modernization is not just about economic growth; it is about the revival of human spirit and culture. We're not just pursuing wealth, but the comprehensive development of individuals. This is what makes us truly unique.
