A navel orange looks at 'transformation'

08/01/2025

Efforts should be made to transform positive factors from all aspects into development achievements. To implement General Secretary Xi Jinping's important directive well, the key is to focus on "transformation".

All things are a contradictory unity, and positive factors do not exist in isolation, often accompanied by unfavorable factors. How to promote advantages and eliminate disadvantages, and walk the path of transformation well? The journey of Hubei Zigui navel oranges from the branches to the tip of the tongue is enlightening.

Zigui is located at 30 degrees north latitude, with a warm and humid climate. The orchards are located in the mountains and produce fresh oranges throughout the year. The mountains are high and the valleys are deep, providing ample sunlight and high-quality oranges; On the other hand, the steep terrain not only increases the cost of planting, but also makes it even more difficult to get out of the mountains. To grow high-quality sweet oranges and get them out of the deep mountains, we need to find ways to amplify positive factors and eliminate negative ones.

Take the road of transformation well and fill in the gaps first.

To lock in the freshness, you need to highlight the word 'fast'. Drones fly in the mountains, quickly lifting fruit baskets instead of carrying people, and can transport over 20000 pounds of navel oranges in a day; Unmanned vehicles shuttle through the streets, shuttling between express delivery outlets and supermarkets in Wuhan... The "first mile" and "last mile" have been successively connected, reshaping the way navel oranges are harvested.

Making up for shortcomings is like building a springboard. To transform characteristic industries into modern ones, we must face our shortcomings and creatively bridge them. At present, the development of new quality productivity is flourishing, and technological innovation and industrial innovation are deeply integrated. By better empowering with new technologies, new industries, and new formats, we are sure to open up new opportunities for development.

The key to a successful transformation lies in the power of collaboration.

Little oranges have great prospects. But the future is not created alone, but through the collaboration of many people. It's not easy to get an orange on a drone: drone companies need to enter the market and develop new scenarios and applications; Logistics companies need to establish dedicated lines to optimize their services; New farmers need to learn new technologies, both as farmers and as "pilots"; The government also needs to be more awesome to build a comprehensive logistics center... It is linked to each other that the "orange goes to heaven" comes into being.

Collaboration is about breaking points and gathering resources. From a small industry to a large region, and even focusing on the overall national situation, there is a problem of synergy. Whether it's "drinking the same river water" or "sharing the same heart", they both give people inspiration: each based on its own advantages to find its own position, relying on its position to expand its strengths, and working together in the same direction and frequency resonance, in order to continuously release synergistic effects and improve overall efficiency.

To walk the path of transformation well, we also need to make good use of reform methods.

A sweet orange, from being suitable for planting and growing well, to quickly harvesting and selling well, to strengthening the industry and establishing a brand, is difficult to achieve overnight. Only by solving each "difficulty" and dealing with each "miscellaneous disease" can the orchard be healthy and the industry be sustainable. How to solve the problem? Relying on reform. Insufficient labor force for orange cultivation, fragmented orchards, and weak ability of orange farmers to resist production and operation risks... In order to solve practical problems, Zigui is exploring the development of socialized services. Some entrust services that cannot be done by individual households to service providers, some rely on professional teams for guidance, and some rely on self assistance from the masses. Nowadays, such socialized services have also expanded to other fields of agricultural production.

Reform is about clearing bottlenecks, alleviating pain points, and forging new paths. You should know that after picking the low hanging fruits, if you want to harvest more and greater development fruits, you must set up a ladder of reform, break down barriers, fill in gaps, and overcome obstacles. By making good use of the power of reform and establishing a clear direction, we can make those who want to do and are willing to do more proactive, those who are capable and able to do more comfortable, and those who dare to do and do well full of passion.

The sweet orange is the sweet of industry and development, reflecting the new climate of agricultural modernization and the new prospect of Chinese path to modernization.

Behind the prosperity of one fruit lies the flourishing of a thousand industries. Low altitude economy helps to soar, logistics reform drives integration into the big market, reform drives mechanism innovation, new professional farmers shoulder the "golden pole", policy support plays a combination punch... By twisting these positive factors into a rope, we can gather strong momentum for development.

"In the new journey of Chinese path to modernization, everyone is the leading role, every contribution is precious, and every ray of light is shining." Our advantages are many and are still accumulating. Like an orange, taking root downward, growing upward, empowering inward and extending outward will surely form more new growth points and growth poles. Chinese path to modernization is becoming more and more promising.
