Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee, delivered a work report to the 19th CPC National Congress which opened in Beijing on Wednesday. A large audience across the country listened to Xi's work report, and among them were faculty members, administrative staff and students across Chinese campuses.

In central China's Zhengzhou University, one of the country's top higher education institutions, students and treachers watched the live broadcast of the CPC national congress's opening session on computers and smartphones in auditoriums, classrooms, dorms and canteens.

"General Secretary Xi Jinping mentioned in his report that the social contradiction of contemporary China has been shifted to the people’s pursuit of better life, and the imbalanced and uneven development," said Jing Hui, an associate professor at the university.

"This is an accurate summary of the current situation in China. He also pointed out that we have to deepen supply-side structural reform, which serves as a springboard for people to pursue a better life. We will also progress in our products and improve efficiency in operations.”

"General Secretary Xi Jinping said in his report that education will be a priority, with particular attention given to higher education in China, following a connotation development strategy," said Professor Jiang Guifang.

"Henan Province has long been plagued by inequality of education and unfair distribution of education resources. Listening to his report, we see the hope of promoting education in our province and we are confident about the future development of the education system and our school."

A student at the university said, "The most impressive part of General Secretary Xi Jinping’s report is college student entrepreneurship. He proposed to build a learning-oriented and innovation-oriented society, and expand employment by encouraging business startups."

"I will give it a try if I have the chance to make good use of those preferential policies to start my own business."

“Xi Jinping said that China does not allow any individual, organization or political party to split our country. As a college student, I will firmly defend the territorial integrity of our motherland," said another student.
