The sea is in the sky, and the sea.
From the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, through the mountains, over the canyons, Hui Baichuan and Na Qianliu, the Yellow River runs for more than 5,400 kilometers in the land of Shenzhou, feeding thousands of Huaxia children and nourishing splendid Chinese civilization.
Since the 18th Congress of the Party, he has traveled through nine provinces up and down the Yellow River.
“Let the Yellow River be a happy river for people.”
Inspiring and affectionate, the Nine Qu Yellow River stirs up a more majestic New Age symphony.
"The history of the Yellow River is also a history of statecraft."

In front of a historical map of the Yellow River diversion, Xi's General Secretary Jiujiu gazed.
From the north to Tianjin, Nanda Jianghuai, across 250,000 square kilometers, wobbly flow line whips toward the earth, causing suffering for people.
The Yellow River is the mother river, the river of life and a rebellious river of worry.
Once upon a time, the Yellow River "many silts, many decisions, many migrations" "three years, one hundred years", in more than 2,500 years before the establishment of New China, the downstream spilled more than 1,500 times and was rerouted 26 times.
"Yellow River Ning, Heavenly Peace.""In a sense, the history of the Chinese nation's governance of the Yellow River is also a history of statecraft.
For thousands of years, Huaxia’s sons and daughters prayed for the relief of the Yellow River. After the establishment of the new China, history will hand over to the Chinese Communist Party.
"It has been proven that only under the leadership of the Communist Party of China can we truly realize the historic transformation of Yellow River governance from passive to active, fundamentally changing the dire situation of the Yellow River three years of two decisions," General Secretary Xi Jinping said.
At the Yellow River National Geopark, General Secretary Xi Jinping walked along the banks of the Yellow River to see the surroundings.
From September 16 to 18, 2019, Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee and President of the Central Military Commission, visited Henan Province. On the afternoon of 17th, Xi Jinping was in Zhengzhou Yellow River National Geopark, overlooking Zhengzhou section of the Yellow River.
With a view of the sky, the sky is high, and the forest birds are flying.
In the history of Chinese civilization for more than 5,000 years, some places have prospered and declined several times. Many rise and fall in history have occurred in tandem. To be safe and healthy, you must be good at treating water well.”
The Yellow River is certainly water-heavy.
"Everyone is busy on the eve of the National Day. Busy again, the Yellow River problem must arrange a time to seriously study it, and the central party attaches great importance to this issue."
On the morning of September 18, 2019, Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee and President of the Central Military Commission, chaired a symposium on ecological protection and high-quality development in the Yellow River Basin.
"We all call the Yellow River Mother River. Protecting the Yellow River is a great plan for the revival and sustainable development of the Chinese nation."
“The Yellow River’s lack of sand and incongruous relationship is the complex and refractory sticking point of the Yellow River.” “Even though it hasn’t been a big problem for years, the Yellow River’s water hazard hangs on its head like a sword.
With such a sense of concern, General Secretary Xi Jinping visited the Yellow River many times.
Shandong Dongying, the Yellow River enters the mouth. On October 20, 2021, General Secretary Xi Jinping came here. At that time, the Yellow River flood had returned to the main trough, but more than 10 meters from the main trough to the dock green belt is still visible.
Just after the car, the general secretary asked where the water line was at its highest.
“This is the water’s edge when you ramble on October 8.” On the dock, the head of the Yellow River Estuary Authority, armed with a display board, reported to the general secretary.
The general secretary reached out to help the swing board, carefully scrutinize and interject questions from time to time.
When heard that the Yellow River Qiuthun although "there is a thrill", there were no major losses and casualties, the general secretary nodded affirmatively.
"Come here today, the upper and lower reaches of the Yellow River are gone, I am also solid in my heart," General Secretary Xi Jinping said.
Two days later, the general secretary told his comrades in charge of Huang about the original mission of Dahe's governance: to get things done on the Yellow River, "this is also Chairman Mao's wish," and now we do it."
"We cannot be satisfied with what has been achieved, we must adhere to the problem-oriented, continue to work hard and do all our work unwaveringly," the general secretary said with a long focus.
There is a vast "beach area" downstream of the Yellow River. The beach area between the main river trough and the flood-proof embankment, is an important area for the people's life and production of the beach.
“After the 18th Party Congress, I was concerned about the relocation of Yellow River Beach District. It is a remarkable thing to carry out comprehensive relocation and construction.” In Yangmiao Community, Dongying Kenli District, Shandong Province, the general secretary met with the crowd he had been involved in.

“What does the Communist Party do? It serves the people and revives the Chinese nation, so we have to keep looking at what things to do and what must be done more quickly.
This is the party’s commitment to the people and its leaders.
On the occasion of 2022, General Secretary Xi Jinping issued a New Year message. He said: "In recent years, I have traveled through nine provinces up and down the upper middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River.
Warm words are powerful and uplifting.
The Beauty of the River - "Together for Great Protection, Collaborate for Great Governance"
"I once said that the Yangtze River is sick, and it is not very ill. Today I will say that the Yellow River has always been weak and sick, with frequent water problems."
The disease of the Yellow River has both innate inadequacy objective constraints and acquired human factors-
Among the major watersheds in the country, the Yellow River Basin water and soil loss area accounts for the largest proportion of the land area of the basin; the upper and middle downstream ecology is easy to degrade, difficult to recover and slow process; some areas have high pollution discharge intensity.
Standing at the height of the sustainable development of the Chinese nation, General Secretary Xi Jinping set down a regulator for ecological protection and high-quality development in the Yellow River Basin.
The general secretary asked that the Yellow River ecosystem be developed as an organic whole: upstream to improve water connotation capacity; in midstream to catch water and soil conservation and pollution control; downstream to focus on protecting wetland ecosystems and improving biodiversity.
In August 2016, General Secretary Xi Jinping visited Qinghai. From Beijing, the plane went all the way to the west, through the northern plains of China.
The complex and varied terrain on both sides tells people that the difficulty of ecological conservation governance in the Yellow River Basin is not unusual.
Qinghai sits at the head of the Yangtze River, Yellow River and Lancang River. The annual output from this clean water source is about half of the Yellow River basin.

Qinghai has the greatest value in ecology, the greatest responsibility in ecology, the greatest potential is also in ecology.
In a colloquium, referring to the protection of "China Water Tower", the general secretary proposed: Think about whether this is GDP important or green water Qingshan important? As a water source, undertake the task of maximizing ecological function, instead of deciding to build a factory, open a mine, make some GDP their own life.
From the “China Water Tower” upstream Sanjiangyuan, to the “Central Water Tower” in midstream Qinling, “North China Water Tower” in Shanxi...
"You are the North China Water Tower, the water source condense land of Jingjin-Hebei, is an important part of the Sanbei Protective Forest and an important barrier to ecological safety in the Gongwei Jing-Hebei and Yellow River."
The Fen River, the second largest tributary of the Yellow River, bred a splendid Sanjin culture.
General Secretary Xi demanded: "Must attach great importance to the ecological environmental protection of the Fen River, so that the mother river in this Shanxi is abundant, water quality good and beautiful scenery."
Come to Shanxi, the general secretary traveled to Fen River for a look.
Local comrades reported that Taiyuan City has taken steps such as Fenhe and Nine Rivers integrated governance, watershed ecological restoration and other initiatives.
The general secretary nodded frequently: "It's a huge change! Taiyuan has the reputation of'crown Taiyuan City, three sides of the mountain, one part in water' since ancient times.
"To effectively protect and govern the Fen River, reproduce the scenery of the evening crossing of the Fen River in Kuchingyang, let Yihong Qing water into the Yellow River," the general secretary stressed to local leadership cadres.
From the Fen River into the north of Huangkou, the Yellow River splits Jinshaan Gorge. It is an important source of mud from the Yellow River.

The local responsible comrade introduced that the ecological environment is getting better and better through the years by retreating to wet and receding to beach. “We are a white stork country in Eastern China, breeding ground for black-billed gulls.
“Are there more tourists here?” the general secretary asked.
“At most 600,000 visitors a year, we have limited the maximum number of visitors per day,” the local manager replied.
The general secretary warned: "Manage the wetlands, nor hunt and net the birds."

Today, the country's first land-sea integrated national park is being created to advance a series of ecological restoration projects.
"Not good for the ecological protection of Yellow River River Basin, can not be done."
Upstream protection, midstream governance and downstream repair. Following General Secretary Xi Jinping’s guidance, protection is a red line for the Yellow River “healing”, Mother River is increasingly rejuvenating.
To promote the high-quality development of Yellow River Basin, create a new era of Yellow River
“The upper and middle reaches of the Yellow River 7 provinces are underdeveloped areas. Compared with the eastern regions and Yangtze River basins, there is a clear gap between traditional industrial transformation and upgrading...
In the face of difficulties and problems of high-quality development in the Yellow River Basin, General Secretary Xi Jinping has so deeply dissected.
Develop first or protect first? Control supply or demand? Find a place or watershed? Promote high-quality development, face more contradictions and entanglements in the Yellow River Basin.
From Sanjiangyuan to Haikou, from the Yellow River Basin Ecological Conservation and High Quality Development Symposium to the Deeply Promote the Ecological Protection and High Quality Development of the Yellow River Basin.
On the afternoon of October 22, 2021, Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee and President of the Central Military Commission, chaired a symposium on in-depth promotion of ecological protection and high quality development in the Yellow River Basin.

Yellow River, Shanxi Yuncheng. Colorful salt lake witness the industrial change of "Salt City".
On May 16, 2023, near the Salt Lake in Yuncheng, a white river salt was placed on the stand. General Secretary Xi Jinping combined with exhibition boards and exhibits to hear about the salt lake landscape.
More than 4,600 years of salt mining history, 70 years of inorganic salt development - Yuncheng is thriving because of salt, but also due to long-term resource dependence faces overexploitation, industry staleness and pollution.
With the implementation of national strategy for ecological protection and high-quality development in the Yellow River Basin, Yuncheng ushered in transformation opportunities.
Save the lake and change the birds!
From 2020, all industrial production stopped within the conservation area, salt lake began to be converted from mines and industrial areas into ecological reserves.
At the same time, Yuncheng accelerates the cultivation of new industrial clusters such as automotive equipment manufacturing, new materials, green building materials, electronic information, food and medicine.
General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out the direction of development along the Huang provinces: all provinces in the Yellow River Basin adhere to the protection of the ecology of the Yellow River Basin as a baseline for planning and promoting high-quality development.

At a later colloquium, General Secretary Xi Jinping noted: "Entering the new development stage, implementing the new development concept, constructing a new development pattern, forming a unified national market and an open domestic cycle, promoting coordinated development in the north and south need strong support for water resources."
On the morning of May 14, 2021, Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee and President of the Central Military Commission, presided over a symposium on high-quality development to promote the follow-up project in Nanyang City, Henan Province.
Put water resources at a strategic level for national development.
The Yellow River Basin, with water resources of only 7% of the Yangtze River, covers 12% of the country's population, 17% of arable land and more than 50 large and medium cities.
What is the puzzle?
General Secretary Xi Jinping's tone is firm: insist on dedicating cities by water, land by water, people by water and produce by water.
This is a deep water conservation and control battle: promote water-saving irrigation, development of dry farming, livestock fishing, water saving...
This is a strict rigid constraint: establish water bearing power zoning control system, limit urban development scale in areas with severe water shortages, construction of high water consumption projects and large-scale tree planting......
The whole yellow river basin moves, "how many soups and how many buns" plain truths deep.
