To thoroughly study and implement Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, leverage the exemplary‑leading role of advanced models and enhance the Party‑spirit cultivation of faculty and student Party members, the School of Foreign Languages organized all its faculty and student Party‑members to hold the themed Party‑Day activity on January 21, 2026. The activity mainly included collectively watching the special‑program Models 10 and conducting exchanges and discussions. Presided over by Yu Jiang, Secretary of the School Party Committee, all faculty and student Party‑members gathered together to perceive their original aspiration and mission from the role‑models’ deeds and gather impetus for progress through ideological exchanges.

In his mobilization speech, Yu Jiang pointed out that Models 10 showcases the outstanding deeds and spiritual outlook of‑Communist Party members in the new era, serving as a vivid textbook for Party‑spirit education. As the old year ends and the new one begins, a critical period for planning‑year‑round work, this themed Party‑Day activity is held to guide all faculty and student Party‑members of the school to take role‑models as examples and learn from outstanding figures. They should translate the role‑model spirit into a driving force for the high‑quality development of the school and practical actions for teaching‑educating students and pursuing self‑improvement, laying a solid ideological foundation for a sound start of all work in the new year.

Subsequently, all participants watched the special‑program Models 10 collectively. By reproducing exemplary deeds, conducting on‑site interviews and reviewing the CPC admission oath, the program vividly recounted the striving stories of outstanding Communist‑Party members including Ru Zhengang and Liang Jianying, as well as advanced grassroots Party‑organizations. Ru Zhengang, dubbed the “Wheat‑breeding Academician”, has devoted more than 40 years to wheat‑breeding research and safeguarded national food security with improved seeds. Liang Jianying, an innovation pioneer, confronted technological blockades and led her team to make Chinese high‑speed‑rail lead the global industry. Tian Ye, a public‑oriented civil servant, rooted himself in grassroots communities and built a communication bridge linking the Party and the public through solid work. These vivid role‑models and touching deeds fully interpret CPC members’ political character of staying true to their original aspiration, shouldering missions and making self‑less dedication. All on‑site faculty and student Party‑members underwent profound ideological baptism and spiritual tempering.

After the screening, the activity moved on to the exchange‑and‑discussion session. Centering on the role‑model stories, faculty and student Party‑members shared their reflections and future plans by combining their study‑work experience with the features of foreign‑language disciplines. Representative faculty Party‑members pledged to follow Professor Ru Zhengang’s craftsmanship of devoting one’s whole life to one cause. They will commit themselves to front‑line foreign‑language teaching and fulfil their educational mission through curriculum‑based ideological‑political development and the innovation of talent‑training modes.Student‑Party‑member representatives were inspired by the innovative spirit and sense of responsibility demonstrated by Liang Jianying, Leng Xiaokun and other role models. They resolved to polish their linguistic skills, keep track of national strategic demands, and strive to become interdisciplinary talents with patriotism and a global vision. The discussion proceeded in a heated atmosphere with active idea‑sharing. All participants agreed to turn their admiration for the role‑models into concrete efforts for career‑building and academic improvement.

In his concluding remarks, Yu Jiang stated that this themed Party‑Day activity serves as an important measure for the school to strengthen ideological education for Party members and advance the development of teachers’ ethics and conduct. He stressed that all faculty and student Party‑members should further consolidate their theoretical grounding, thoroughly study Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, fully understand the decisive significance of the Two Establishments, strengthen the Four Consciousnesses, bolster the Four‑confidences and uphold the Two Upholds. They should take role‑models as benchmarks and fulfill their duties on‑the‑job posts. Faculty Party‑members shall strive for excellence in teaching, scientific research, education and student services, while student Party‑members should refine their moral character through academic studies, practical activities and volunteer services. All Party members need to give full play to their vanguard‑and‑model role, internalize the role‑model spirit in their minds and put it into practice. Leveraging the disciplinary strengths of foreign‑language majors, they should take the initiative to undertake responsibilities in teaching, scientific research, talent cultivation and international communication, and live up to their original aspiration as CPC members through concrete deeds.

The launch of this themed Party‑Day activity has further strengthened the Party‑spirit cultivation and sense of responsibility of all faculty and student Party‑members of the school. In the next step, the college will deeply integrate the learning of role‑model spirit with core work. Through a series of activities including role‑model‑story sharing sessions, themed micro‑Party lectures and practical practices, it will turn the power of role models into a strong joint force for all staff to devote themselves to work. The college will guide all faculty and student Party‑members to forge ahead persistently with full enthusiasm and a pragmatic work style on the journey of building a leading‑edge education‑powered country, tell Chinese stories and spread China’s strength by virtue of foreign‑language communication.
