Meishan: Give full play to the advantages of grassroots culture and promote the ideological and political leadership of the united front

"When will the bright moon come? Ask the sky for wine." Meeting friends with poetry and educating people is a vivid reflection of Meishan's strengthening of the ideological and political leadership of the united front by relying on the advantages of grassroots culture.

In recent years, Meishan has continued to polish the brand of Dongpo’s hometown, delved into the cultural connotation of Dongpo, and transformed the precious resource of Dongpo culture into an important carrier to strengthen the ideological and political leadership of the United Front. It has given full play to the unique role of cultural connections, friendships, and connections, and explored a Meishan path to promote the ideological and political leadership of the United Front through “cultural people”, so that the United Front’s “circle of friends” becomes wider and wider, the ideological “concentric circles” become larger and larger, and the power of unity and advancement becomes stronger.

"Connecting people" with literature, gathering the power of people working in the same direction

The renovated Sansu Temple is full of ancient cypresses and crowded with tourists. What few people know is that behind this largest renovation since the reconstruction in the fourth year of Emperor Kangxi’s reign in the Qing Dynasty, there is a special fund of 11 million yuan from the Central Committee of the Peasants and Workers’ Party, as well as the promotion of the research results of the Democratic League on improving the development level of the museum. This is a vivid footnote of the cultural “union” of people on the east slope of Meishan and the unity of the united front. In recent years, Meishan has used Dongpo culture as a link to unite and lead grassroots united front members such as members of democratic parties, ethnic minorities, religious figures, and private economic figures to form a joint effort to think in the same direction and act in sync. Closely adhering to the concept of "integration of family and country" and promoting "Dongpo culture into temples", the relief walls of Qingshen Zhongyan Temple and the poetry and cultural corridor of Deyun Temple have become "living classrooms" to display Dongpo's stories, and a large number of related places have integrated Dongpo cultural elements. Inheriting the spirit of "making the best use of the world", we organized 612 private enterprises to contact 446 villages, invested more than 2.9 billion yuan in "village development" funds, supported the creation of the "Dongpo Drunken Moon Land" project, and was selected as a national-level night culture and tourism consumption cluster, allowing private enterprises to enhance their recognition and strengthen their confidence in co-construction and sharing.

Use literature to "connect" and broaden the path of mutual learning and mutual learning

An unforgettable "Dongpo Appointment" spanning 11 provinces and 18 cities (counties) - at the first CPPCC Consultation and Cooperation Meeting on Dongpo Heritage Sites, representatives of CPPCC and United Front Department departments from all regions gathered in Meishan to establish a friendly alliance and write a vivid footnote for the cross-regional cultural united front. With Dongpo as the media, the radius of friendship has been continuously extended. Relying on Sansu Temple "Sichuan United Front Socialist Education Base with Chinese Characteristics", Meishan has built a friendship network that links internal and external areas. In recent years, a total of more than 160 batches of more than 4,200 people from the United Front Department and representatives from various places have visited Meizhou. Through mutual learning and mutual learning, the Dongpo story has been spread further and the friendship has been deepened.

"Connecting Hearts" with Literature to Build a Bridge of Exchange and Cooperation

More than 40 overseas Chinese media reporters from 22 countries and regions visited Meishan. Under the eaves of Sansu Temple and among the landscapes described by Dongpo, they recorded this "Thousand-year Poetry and Book City" with lenses and words, allowing Dongpo culture to fly across the mountains and seas and approach the world. This is a vivid scene of the "Walking in China·World Chinese Media" trip to Meishan. It is also a true portrayal of Meishan's use of literature to "connect hearts" and promote spiritual connection among compatriots at home and abroad. It builds development consensus with cultural identity, relies on Dongpo culture to attract more than 2,200 overseas Chinese leaders and businessmen from more than 100 countries and regions to visit Meishan, and introduces 52 overseas Chinese-funded enterprises from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan such as Thailand’s Charoen Pokphand, with a total investment of more than 65 billion yuan, gathering great strength for the high-quality development of Meishan.

To educate people, moisten things silently. Cultural identity is the deepest level of identity. Meishan is using Dongpo culture as a medium to drive ideological and political guidance into the hearts of the people and directly into the soul, so that the powerful magic weapon of the united front can shine at the grassroots level and gather the most extensive wisdom and strength to write a new chapter of Chinese-style modernization in Meishan.
