Through the study of the special party course "Bottom Line" on party discipline study and education, all party members can further strengthen their ideals and beliefs, build a solid ideological defense line, strictly abide by laws and regulations, and effectively transform iron discipline into daily habits and conscious compliance.

Party class dry goods, let's learn together!

In the special party class of "The Bottom Line", Zhang Dong, secretary of the party branch, preached:

1. What is China lacking now?

Yi Zhongtian once said that China is the most lacking bottom line. Without a bottom line, companies will cheat, scholars will point to deer as horses, referees will blow black whistles, officials will be corrupt and corrupt, police will torture confessions, and courts will kill people. From this point of view, the bottom line is the lifeline.

Why do humans have a bottom line? To survive. People are the beings of society. No one can live in this world alone. what is expressly stipulated through the legislative process is the "bottom line of the law"; In social life, conventions and conventions that everyone abides by are the "moral bottom line"; The principles that all walks of life must adhere to, such as merchants not selling fake goods, accountants not making false accounts, and doctors not prescribing fake drugs, are the "bottom line of the industry" and "the bottom line of the profession". Not everyone has or wants to have a realm, but the bottom line cannot be missing overnight. Because the bottom line is the foundation, the foundation, and the last line of defense that cannot be retreated. if the foundation is not solid, the earth will shake; The defense line was lost and the game collapsed.

Chinese have always had a bottom line. It is precisely by adhering to the bottom line that although the Chinese nation has experienced hardships, Chinese civilization has been continued.

2. Why did the Communist Party of China win?

1. Mao Zedong's three major disciplines, six disciplines, and eight disciplines

After the Autumn Harvest Uprising in September 1927, Mao Zedong led the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army to Jinggangshan. The soldiers on the march were tired and hungry, and they secretly ate sweet potatoes from their fellow villagers, and the fellow villagers had quite a problem with this. In response to the new problems that arose in the troops, Chairman Mao formulated the "three major disciplines".

After the troops occupied Chaling County, some officers took the silver dollars and gold jewelry obtained by fighting the local tyrants as their own, and Mao Zedong knew about it and stipulated a discipline for the troops, and the local tyrants had to be returned to the public. In April 1928, Zhu Mao's Red Army joined forces in western Guizhou, and Mao Zedong stipulated another discipline in Sha Tin in eastern Guizhou, that all actions should be commanded.

The three disciplines laid the foundation for the unified discipline of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army. In 1928, after the troops arrived in Shatian Town, Guidong County, Mao Zedong seriously put forward six issues to the troops to pay attention to: first, put on the door panel, second, bale grass, third, speak kindly, fourth, buy and sell fairly, fifth, borrowed things to be returned, and sixth, to compensate for damaged things, which were the original "six attentions".

A year later, according to the development of the situation and the practical experience of the troops, Mao Zedong changed the three major disciplines to "obey commands in all actions", "do not take a needle and a thread from the masses", and "all captures must be returned to the public". This army is completely different from the Kuomintang, this army is a civilized army, a disciplined army.

In order to facilitate the soldiers to keep in mind the military discipline provisions, in October 1935, the "Three Disciplines and Eight Attentions" was finally filled into the tune of the popular folk song "The Agrarian Revolution Has Succeeded" in the Hubei-Henan-Anhui Soviet Area, and imitated the writing of nine characters and one sentence, and adapted the discipline provisions into catchy nine-byte lyrics. It is precisely by strengthening discipline that the people's army has kept the bottom line and won the hearts of the people.

Deng Xiaoping made an impromptu speech at the National Science and Technology Work Conference on March 7, 1985, after giving a speech titled "Reforming the Science and Technology System to Liberate the Productive Forces". In 1986, it was included in the "Selected Documents since the Twelfth National Congress of the Communist Party of China" published by the People's Publishing House (middle). Deng Xiaoping pointed out: "How can we unite and organize as a big country? One relies on ideals, and the other relies on discipline. There is strength when organized. "Only with ideals and discipline can we unite the people, unite as one, overcome difficulties, and strive for the cause of the country and the people. Deng Xiaoping led the people of the whole country to rely on ideology and discipline to keep the bottom line and continuously promote the country's development.

On the evening of June 15, the branch organized the viewing of the drama "Jiao Yulu", because the secretary of the village branch with a bag of flour with military exploits was dismissed from his position and kept in the party for inspection, and found that he was promoting the planting of Jiao Tong and planting grain in the Lankao field! It has won the hearts of the people of Lankao.

2. Xi Jinping's eight central regulations

On December 4, 2012, the meeting of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee passed the "Eight Provisions of the Political Bureau of the 18th CPC Central Committee on Improving Work Style and Closely Contacting the Masses", which opened the change in the top-down style of the Communist Party of China after the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. On December 7, 2012, the third day after the introduction of the eight regulations, General Secretary Xi Jinping went to Beijing for the first time to investigate, and in five days in Guangdong, he did not close the road, did not clear the scene, lived in an ordinary suite, and used a buffet. It can be said that this is a vivid demonstration of General Secretary Xi Jinping taking the lead in implementing the eight provisions of the central government.

Shortly after the conclusion of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the first meeting of the Political Bureau of the 19th CPC Central Committee deliberated on the "Detailed Rules for the Implementation of the Eight Provisions of the Central Committee by the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee", sending a strong signal to the whole party and society to consolidate and expand the spiritual achievements of the implementation of the eight provisions of the Central Committee. Since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly emphasized at the plenary sessions of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection that it is necessary to unswervingly rectify the "four winds".

On October 27, 2022, less than a week after the conclusion of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping led the newly elected members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the 20th CPC Central Committee to Yan'an to pay homage to the revolutionary holy land.

A few months later, the theme education of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era was carried out in depth throughout the party. The meeting of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee held on March 30, 2023 clarified the five specific goals to be achieved by this theme education, one of which is "establishing a new style of integrity and public service".

The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China closed only 3 days ago, presiding over the meeting of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, and one of the important agendas was to review the "Detailed Rules for the Implementation of the Eight Provisions of the Central Committee by the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee";

From the First and Second Plenary Sessions of the 20th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, to the Central Economic Work Conference, the Plenary Session of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, to the Study and Implementation of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era and other important occasions, new requirements have been put forward for persevering in the construction of the party's work style and implementing the spirit of the eight provisions of the central government.

There is no small matter in the construction of work style. Since the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has made a series of important expositions on the persistent implementation of the spirit of the eight provisions of the central government and the deepening of the construction of work style, further deepened the understanding of the regularity of work style construction, and pointed out the way forward and provided fundamental guidance for continuously strengthening the eight provisions of the central government and promoting the normalization and long-term effectiveness of work style construction.

Stirring up turbidity and promoting clarity, long-term success. Under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core, the whole party has persevered in implementing the spirit of the eight provisions of the central government, and constantly leading the construction of work style to deepen.

On April 28, 2024, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission announced a summary of the national investigation and punishment of violations of the eight central regulations in March 2024. In the same month, a total of 7,859 cases of violating the eight provisions of the central government were investigated and dealt with, and 10,855 people were criticized, educated and dealt with, including 7,450 people who were punished for party discipline and government affairs, which is the 127th consecutive month that monthly report data has been released. It is precisely by continuously holding the bottom line that Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era continues to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

3. The bottom line of the sustainable development of Chinese civilization

1. The bottom line of the integration of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism (ethics and morality)

Confucianism is the core of Chinese culture, mainly studying the relationship between people, which embodies the basic spirit of Chinese culture and profoundly affects the development process of Chinese history. The eight great masters of the Tang and Song dynasties were advocates and admirers of Confucianism, and they studied from the four aspects of self-cultivation, governing the country and pacifying the world, and played a crucial role in the revival of Confucianism. In the Han Dynasty, Sima Qian wrote a special chapter on the Historical Records to compile biographies and inherit Confucius's thoughts, and on this basis, Dong Zhongshu proposed to "depose a hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone", which Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty adopted and adopted as a basic strategy for governing the country. Confucianism became the orthodox idea of the state and had a profound impact on China. After nearly 80 years of research, Harvard University found that interpersonal relationships account for 85% of people's longevity, people are social, and interpersonal relationships play a decisive role in mentality and lifespan, so interpersonal relationships are very important in our lives.

Buddhism, also known as Buddhism, is the study of the relationship between people and the heart, and people can achieve inner peace, purity and compassion through cultivating the mind and cultivating nature, so as to affect the external world and achieve harmony and perfection in life.

Taoism mainly studies the relationship between man and nature, Taoism's inaction, creating something out of nothing, there is Tai Chi, Tai Chi is the boss of something, everything is the continuation of Tai Chi, Tai Chi is the common carrier of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism, Tai Chi culture is the core culture of China, so playing Tai Chi can further experience Chinese culture, and you can also learn Tai Chi thinking one step deeper, Tai Chi is the only martial art that defeats the strong with the weak, defeats the big with the small, and overcomes the strong with softness, in fact, with this kind of thinking, you can defeat the strong, Tai Chi is to maximize the use of force, By using force to overcome everything, China needs this thinking to solve problems.

The West mainly studies the relationship between man and science, and the relationship between man and God, and we think that it is a natural law, they are hostile to each other and cannot integrate and develop.

Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism in Chinese culture are the same, and the research angles are different, so they can be integrated into one and develop together.

2. The bottom line connotation of the sustainable development of Chinese civilization

The core of the sustainable development of Chinese civilization is the feeling of family and country, which has continued from ancient times to the present. China is a united and multi-ethnic country, with 56 ethnic groups integrated into a pluralistic and integrated country, and these ethnic groups together form the Chinese national family. In China's historical development, all ethnic groups have jointly developed their economy and culture, jointly resisted class oppression and resisted foreign aggression, and made their own contributions to the creation and development of a unified multi-ethnic country. China's unified multi-ethnic state was formed through long-term historical development and was jointly created by the people of all ethnic groups in China. From the national level, the greatest integration is the reunification of the motherland, which is also our bottom line.

Another bottom line is to rely on ourselves, we believe in ourselves, and we also rely on ourselves to decide our lives, 100% by ourselves. At critical moments in history, it is up to oneself to integrate development and civilization develop. The only country in the Chinese-style world that has no uninterrupted civilization, a multi-ethnic, unified pluralistic and integrated country.

The sustainable development of China's civilization is reflected in the disciplinary regulations of the Communist Party of China, the bottom line of socialist morality. For example, Articles 151, 152, and 154 of the Regulations stipulate that those who violate the relationship between men and women, the construction of family style, and the violation of social morality and family virtues shall be given warnings and directly expelled from the Party depending on the specific circumstances.

4.  the bottom line of party organizations and party members

Party organizations and party members must work and live in accordance with the provisions of state laws and regulations, the Party Constitution and the Regulations on Disciplinary Punishment of the Communist Party of China. Violations of the Party Constitution and other internal Party regulations, national laws and regulations, Party and state policies, socialist morality, and endangering the interests of the Party, the state, and the people shall be disciplined and punished in accordance with regulations, and must be investigated.

The legal bottom line is the most basic bottom line. The law is universally binding on all members of society and is a code of conduct that every member of society must abide by. The bottom line of discipline is the primary level, which requires more self-discipline. To be a qualified party member, we should adhere to high standards and strictly abide by the bottom line of discipline. As advanced elements, party members and cadres must adhere to taking the lead in self-discipline and set an example of "integrity" under the above rate. The bottom line of the policy is at the intermediate level, which requires a more overall view. To keep the bottom line of the policy, party members and cadres must study and implement the party's line, principles and policies to the letter, and be consistent with the party's major policies and policies. It is necessary to strengthen the correct direction and principles of doing things, adhere to policy rigidity, and adhere to the bottom line of policies. Build a political character that is loyal to the party, strengthen lofty political beliefs, improve the political consciousness of worrying about the party and protecting the party, and always maintain the political feelings of ruling for the people. The moral bottom line is the highest level and requires higher consciousness. Party members and cadres should improve their basic quality and moral level by strengthening theoretical accomplishment, effectively combine theoretical study with officer entrepreneurship, and always maintain the vanguard nature of Communist Party members.

5.The Bottom Line of Lawyers

1. The bottom line of professional ethics requires legal professionals ‬ not to engage in activities that violate professional ethics. Whether lawyers represent clients, judges hear cases, or professors impart legal knowledge, all must abide by the law and professional ethics. The mission bottom line emphasizes the professional mission of legal professionals, which is to maintain social fairness and justice, ensure the correct implementation of the law, and safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the parties involved.

2. Comply with industry rules and the professional ethics of lawyers.

3. Comply with the institute's charter and relevant regulations.

Reflections on Party Class Learning

The special Party class with a clear theme, rich content and prominent focus provided all the Party members with a powerful spiritual recharge, as well as a profound ideological cleansing and theoretical elevation. After the class, everyone was still discussing, reflecting and thinking deeply. Through continuous collisions, sparks of thought were eventually generated! Now, let's take a look at the ideological achievements of our Party members.

Lawyer Liu Weiliang, a Party member, said: "The Party lesson 'The Bottom Line' given by Secretary Zhang Dong, with vivid cases and in-depth yet easy-to-understand explanations, made me clearly realize that the Party's discipline and rules are red lines that cannot be crossed." Whether in work or life, we must always maintain a sense of awe towards discipline and adhere to the bottom-line thinking. At the same time, it also made me understand that adhering to the bottom line is not achieved overnight, but requires long-term self-discipline and continuous learning and improvement. We should always take the Party Constitution and regulations as a mirror, reflect on our words and deeds, and constantly strengthen our sense of discipline and rules. In my future work and life, I will internalize the knowledge I have learned from the Party class and put it into practice. In terms of ideology, we should be firm in our ideals and beliefs, enhance our Party spirit cultivation, and always remain loyal to the Party. In terms of action, strictly abide by all the Party's disciplines, consciously resist all kinds of temptations, and be honest and upright in public service and integrity. In conclusion, the Party class "The Bottom Line" served as a wake-up call for me, making me more aware of my responsibilities and missions as a lawyer who is also a Party member. With a firmer determination and stricter standards, I will adhere to the bottom line and contribute my strength to the cause of the Party.

Party member lawyer Zhang Shuaishuai said, "After studying the Party class with the theme of 'The Bottom Line', I was deeply educated." The vivid cases in the Party class made me clearly realize that the bottom line is an unbreachable red line. The bottom line is the cornerstone of morality. It regulates our words and deeds and determines our character and reputation. When confronted with the temptation of interests, adhering to the bottom line can keep us clear-headed and prevent us from being bewitched by temporary desires. The bottom line is also the boundary of the law. Crossing the legal bottom line will inevitably lead to corresponding consequences. This made me understand that I should always hold the law in awe and restrain my behavior with it. In my future work and life, I will integrate the bottom-line thinking into every decision and action. Be strict with yourself and be cautious when alone, in small matters and at the beginning. Constantly enhance one's moral cultivation and legal awareness, take the bottom line as the defense line, consolidate the foundation of life, and be a person who adheres to the bottom line, has principles and takes responsibility.

Party member lawyer Tang Meili said, "The theme of this Party class is' the bottom line '." As a member of society, every individual and every industry should have a bottom line. It is the minimum standard for doing things and being a person. This bottom line may stem from the law or from morality. If the bottom line is lost, society will be in chaos. As a Party member, one must have the bottom line of a Party member. Only with a bottom line can our society be stable and our country be secure. As a lawyer, one must have their own bottom line. For instance, one should be sincere in dealing with people and communicate with clients within the scope of professional ethics or even at a higher level. One must not use illegal means or deceptive words to seek improper benefits for the parties involved.

Lawyer Liu Qi, a Party member, said: "The Communist Party of China has maintained its bottom line through ideology and discipline, constantly driving the country forward. As a Party member, one should have self-discipline and adhere to the 'legal bottom line', following the principles of 'governing the country by law' and 'governing the country by constitution'." The bottom line of discipline is at the primary level. We should always be vigilant and nip problems in the bud. The policy bottom line is at the intermediate level, requiring Party members and cadres to have a broad perspective and ensure consistency with the Party's major policies and guidelines. The moral bottom line is the highest level, which requires Party members and cadres to have a higher sense of self-awareness, strengthen their own moral construction, and overcome the crisis of values and beliefs. The bottom line for legal professionals includes the bottom line of professional ethics, the bottom line of mission, and the bottom line of life norms. The bottom line of professional ethics requires that legal professionals must not engage in activities that violate professional ethics. The mission bottom line emphasizes the professional mission of legal professionals, which is to serve society, uphold justice and promote the process of rule of law construction. The bottom line of the code of conduct requires legal professionals to maintain a reasonable balance between life and work and avoid the problem of dual personality.

Xu Wei, a Party member, said: "Looking at today's society, the heinous social phenomena of suicide out of fear of punishment and adding more crime to one's crime are emerging one after another." A young man, after accidentally witnessing a criminal suspect killing and burying a body with a knife, the suspect, fearing that the young man might get out of the public eye, killed him to keep him silent. The suspect's actions have added more guilt to his crime. Such behavior has crossed the bottom line of law and morality, as well as the lowest standard we can expect of them. Not only did he fail to uphold his own bottom line, but he also devalued himself. It also endangers the public and social security. In this life, only by adhering to the bottom line can one be best responsible for oneself and for others.

Party member Wang Shasha said, "Through this Party class on 'The Bottom Line', I have gained a deeper understanding and recognition of the bottom line." Whether it is the moral bottom line, professional bottom line of an individual, or the legal bottom line and ethical bottom line of society, they are all the norms and standards for our behavior. Once the bottom line is crossed, it may trigger a series of adverse consequences and even cause serious damage to individuals, society and the country. On an individual level, adhering to the bottom line is the fundamental principle of being a person. At the social level, the legal and ethical bottom lines are the cornerstones for maintaining social order and fairness and justice. Law is the minimum morality. Everyone must abide by the law and not break the law or discipline. The bottom line is not only a way of thinking, but also a responsibility and commitment. In my future studies, work and life, I will always keep the bottom line in mind, restrain my behavior with the bottom-line thinking, and strive to be a person who adheres to the bottom line, takes responsibility and makes achievements. At the same time, I will also actively spread the concept of bottom-line thinking, inspire the people around me to abide by the bottom line together, and contribute my share to building a harmonious, stable and orderly social environment.

Xu Xiaoni, an intern lawyer who has just joined the Party branch, said this: "The theme of this Party class is' the bottom line '. Regarding the bottom line, I believe that every individual and every industry should have a bottom line. As a Party member, one must have the bottom line of a Party member. Only with a bottom line can our society be stable and our country be secure." For oneself, it is even more important to have one's own bottom line. I also have my own bottom line, such as: kindness should not be excessive, and one should be sincere in life, etc. In my legal profession, it is even more necessary to have one's own bottom line as a lawyer, such as: One must not use illegal means to seek improper benefits for the parties involved, etc. As a Party member, one also has their own bottom line, such as: not breaking the law or discipline, not violating the Party's rules and regulations, etc.

Activist Wu Ziwen said: On the afternoon of June 20th, under the chairmanship of Director Zhang Dong, a Party class on "The Bottom Line" was held. As a lawyer who has only been practicing for two years, I would like to briefly reflect on the bottom line of lawyers. The professional ethics of lawyers is the way of their practice and the foundation of their existence. Whether they are lawyers who have been practicing for many years, those who have just started practicing, or those who are currently on the internship path, Adhering to the professional ethics of lawyers is their hardest and most fundamental bottom line. In other words, the professional ethics of lawyers refer to all the rules and basic requirements that lawyers must abide by, as well as the duties and legal obligations that lawyers should fulfill. On the one hand, lawyers must safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of their clients by ensuring the correct implementation of the law and maintaining social fairness and justice. On the other hand, lawyers must safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of their clients to ensure the correct implementation of the law and maintain social fairness and justice. They must never use the excuse of safeguarding the correct implementation of the law and social fairness and justice to damage the legitimate rights and interests of their clients.
