Features: Deng Xiaoping, a globally renowned name. He walked through a century, he pioneered an era. He changed China, he influenced the world. Guang'an, Sichuan, nestled at the foot of Mount Huaying and by the side of the Qu River, is a land of abundant resources and outstanding talent. On August 22, 1904, Deng Xiaoping was born here. At the age of 16, he left his hometown and devoted himself to the great tide of China's revolution and national rejuvenation. Deng Xiaoping's life was extraordinary. He fought for the cause of communism, national independence, unification, construction, and reform for over seventy years, making significant contributions in every historical period of China's revolution and construction. Deng Xiaoping's life was also full of legend. Throughout his long political career, he was knocked down three times but miraculously rose each time, becoming stronger, more prominent, and more glorious with each rise. Deng Xiaoping once said, "I am the son of the Chinese people, and I deeply love my motherland and my people." This reveals the source of his relentless pursuit and resilience in the face of setbacks, reflecting the truth of his life's beliefs and practices. The Chinese people adore, thank, and cherish Deng Xiaoping because he dedicated his entire life and energy to the Chinese people. As one of the founding heroes of the People's Republic of China, he achieved glorious victories for the independence, liberation, and birth of the new China of the Chinese nation. As an important member of the central leadership collective of the Communist Party of China, he undertook arduous exploration for the establishment, consolidation, and development of Chinese socialism. As the chief designer of China's socialist reform and opening-up and modernization, he established immortal merits in opening up a new path for socialism with Chinese characteristics. Without Deng Xiaoping, the Chinese people would not have the new life they enjoy today, and China would not have the new situation of reform and opening-up or the bright prospects of socialist modernization. Deng Xiaoping's name, achievements, thoughts, and spirit will forever be recorded in history and etched in the hearts of generations of people.
