日月其邁，时盛岁新。值此辞旧迎新之际，我谨代表山东省人民政府和1亿多山东人民，向关心支持山东发展的港澳同胞、台湾同胞、海外侨胞和社会各界朋友，致以诚挚的问候和新年的祝福！

刚刚过去的2021年，是中国共产党成立100周年，是全面迈入社会主义现代化新征程起步之年和“十四五”开局之年，也是必将载入史册、具有里程碑意义的一年。

这一年，我们牢记嘱托、砥砺前行，目标方向更加清晰坚定。我们深入学习贯彻党的十九届六中全会精神，扎实开展党史学习教育，坚定捍卫“两个确立”，坚决做到“两个维护”。我们全面贯彻落实习近平总书记对山东工作的重要指示要求，锚定“走在前列、全面开创”“三个走在前”总遵循、总定位、总航标，在坚定不移抓好“八大发展战略”“九大改革攻坚”“十强现代优势产业集群”“七个走在前列”“九个强省突破”等既有工作部署基础上，聚焦“六个一”发展思路、“六个更加注重”策略方法、“十二个着力”重点任务，奋力开创新时代社会主义现代化强省建设新局面。全省人民自信昂扬、奋发进取，山东发展前景光明、未来可期。

这一年，我们埋头苦干、辛勤耕耘，发展成果更加丰硕靓丽。我们统筹疫情防控和经济社会发展，推进“六稳”“六保”落地，加快新旧动能转换，全省经济稳中向好、进中提质。从“量”上看，地区生产总值有望突破8万亿，粮食总产超过1100亿斤，规上工业企业突破3万家，经济实力跃上新台阶。从“质”上看，预计一般公共预算收入增长10%左右，规上工业利润增长35%左右，发展质效实现新提升。

这一年，我们锐意改革、矢志创新，动力活力更加充沛强劲。我们坚持向改革要活力，深入实施营商环境创新突破行动，在全国营商环境评价中位列第五，全省实有市场主体突破1300万户。我们坚持向创新要动力，高新技术产业产值占比达到47%左右，高新技术企业突破2万家。我们坚持向开放要潜力，优化全方位开放格局，进出口总额、实际使用外资分别增长30%和20%左右，齐鲁大地焕发出新的蓬勃生机。

这一年，我们心系百姓、改善民生，人民生活更加殷实丰盈。我们坚定践行以人民为中心的发展思想，滚动实施20项重点民生实事，推出43项省级重点民生项目清单，城镇新增就业120万人以上，9类困难群体救助保障标准在上年大幅提标基础上又提高10%，率先实现医保卡省内“一卡通行”全覆盖，PM2.5平均浓度、环境空气质量综合指数同比改善15%和10%左右，丰富多彩的文化活动“点亮”群众美好生活，一派岱青海蓝、物阜民丰的壮美画卷“装点此关山”，齐鲁大地“今朝更好看”。

历尽天华成此景，人间万事出艰辛。过去一年，终将以拼搏的艰辛、收获的喜悦，深深镌刻在我们的记忆里。山东各项事业蓬勃发展，是习近平总书记把脉定向、领航掌舵的结果，是习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想科学指引的结果，是全省人民苦干实干的结果，也离不开海内外朋友和社会各界人士的关心、支持和帮助，在此，谨向大家表示衷心感谢！

时光不恋过往，历史开始落笔新的一页。新的一年，我们将深入贯彻落实习近平总书记对山东工作的重要指示要求，按照省委工作部署，坚持稳中求进工作总基调，完整、准确、全面贯彻新发展理念，主动服务和融入新发展格局，大力推动高质量发展，统筹疫情防控和经济社会发展，统筹发展和安全，奋力推进新旧动能转换“五年取得突破”，用心用情用力解决好群众“急难愁盼”问题，扎实促进共同富裕，努力托起全省人民“稳稳的幸福”，以优异成绩迎接党的二十大胜利召开。

疫情无情人有情，团结合作共前行。新时代的“好客山东”，既有海纳百川的大胸怀，也有爱才重才的大诚意，更有创新创造的大舞台。我们将用好黄河流域生态保护和高质量发展重大国家战略、国家新旧动能转换综合试验区、中国（山东）自贸试验区、上合示范区等高能级平台，抓住区域全面经济伙伴关系协定（RCEP）落地机遇，实施更大范围、更宽领域、更深层次对外开放，全力打造对外开放新高地。我们热切呼唤、真诚拥抱每一位来自五湖四海的追梦人，为大家在山东创新创业、投资兴业、安居乐业创造一流环境、提供一流服务，让大家在山东切实感受到家的温暖、成就精彩的人生。

衷心祝愿各位朋友新年快乐、阖家幸福、身体健康、万事如意！

As a new year begins， everything takes on a new look. On this occasion of bidding farewell to the old year and ushering in the new， I wish to extend， on behalf of the People’s Government of Shandong Province and over 100 million people in Shandong， my sincere greetings and New Year wishes to our fellow Chinese in Hong Kong， Macao， Taiwan and around the world， and friends from various sectors who have been caring for and supporting Shandong.

The past year was the centenary of the Communist Party of China， the inaugural year of the new journey to socialist modernization， and the first year in the implementation of the 14th Five-Year Plan. It will be written into the annals of history as a year of landmark.

Last year， we kept in mind General Secretary Xi Jinping’s instructions， forged ahead， and charted a clearer course for development. We studied and implemented the guiding principles of the 6th Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee， carried out activities to study the history of the CPC， supported the decision to establish Comrade Xi Jinping’s core position in both the Party Central Committee and the Party as a whole and define the guiding role of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era， upheld General Secretary Xi Jinping’s core position on the Party Central Committee and in the Party as a whole， and upheld the Party Central Committee’s authority and its centralized， unified leadership. Following the important requirement made by General Secretary Xi Jinping， we focused on taking the lead in finishing the building of a moderately prosperous society in all respects， embarking on a new journey to socialist modernization， exploring new heights in developing a modernized province in the new era， and taking the lead in serving and integrating into the new development paradigm， in strengthening the innovation capacity of the economy and society， and in advancing ecological protection and high-quality development in the Yellow River basin. We continued to implement 8 major development strategies， conduct reform in 9 areas， and develop 10 modern industrial clusters， in order to take the lead in 7 aspects and pursue breakthroughs in 9 sectors. And based on that， we further put into practice a six-pronged approach with a six-focus methodology and 12 key tasks in an effort to open up a new horizon for developing a modernized province in the new era. As the people in the province press ahead with perseverance and high morale， Shandong enjoys a promising future.

Last year， we worked hard and scored remarkable achievements. We tried best to strike a balance between virus control and economic and social development， ensured stability on the six fronts and security in the six areas， accelerated growth drivers transformation， and delivered steady and high-quality economic growth. On quantity， we expect the economic output to exceed 8 trillion RMB yuan， grain output to hit 55 million tons， and the number of large industrial companies to surpass 30，000. The economic strength was elevated to a new level. On quality， the general public budget revenue is expected to rise by 10% and profits of large industrial companies 35%. The quality and efficacy of development were improved.

Last year， we were determined to reform and innovate， and showed greater vibrancy. We sought vitality through reform. By seeking innovation and making breakthroughs， Shandong secured the fifth in the ranking of business environment in China， and the number of market entities exceeded 13 million. We sought impetus through innovation. The output of high-tech industry accounted for about 47% of the economy， and the number of high-tech enterprises exceeded 20，000. We sought potential through opening-up. By opening wider to the outside world， the total import and export volume and the actual use of foreign capital increased by about 30% and 20% respectively， and the province demonstrated new dynamism.

Last year， we ensured safety by overcoming difficulties， and performed better in social harmony and stability. We concentrated our efforts on pandemic response， swiftly and effectively dealt with the sudden outbreaks of the virus in Yantai and Wulian of Rizhao ， carried out vaccinations in a phased manner. More than 200 million doses have been administered， and the daily nucleic acid testing capacity exceeded 2.8 million samples. We were united in the battle against the worst autumn flood since 1985. None of the large and medium-sized reservoirs and main river channels in the province were in danger. We went all out to ensure energy supply in terms of coal， oil and gas， and electricity， and stabilize their prices， providing guarantee for the operation of businesses and people’s lives.

Last year， we bore in mind people’s needs and made efforts to ensure that people can enjoy a better life. We practiced the people-centered development philosophy， rolled out 20 key programs important to people’s livelihood， and launched a list of 43 provincial-level projects. More than 1.2 million new jobs were created in urban areas. The assistance standards for 9 disadvantaged groups of people， which were raised substantially over the previous year， were raised by another 10%. Shandong turned out the first in China to realize full coverage of medical services by allowing a single medical insurance card across the province. The average intensity of PM2.5 dropped by 15% and the index of air quality improved by 10% year-on-year. A variety of cultural activities were held to enrich people’s lives. The province took on a better look with beautiful scenery， abundant supply of products， and a happy life for people.

Hard-won achievements are made through many trials and tribulations. 2021 will be remembered as a year of hard work and accomplishments. We owe the achievements to the guidance of General Secretary Xi Jinping and Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era， to the diligence and commitment of all people across the province， and to the support from friends from around the world and people in all sectors. I would like to take this opportunity to extend sincere appreciation to all of you.

Time flies. A new chapter of the history is unfolding. In the new year， we will meet the important requirement made by General Secretary Xi Jinping on the work of Shandong， follow the decision of the Provincial Party Committee， and pursue progress while ensuring stability. By acting on the new development philosophy， we will serve and integrate into the new development paradigm， and advance high-quality development. We will make parallel efforts on pandemic response and social and economic development， ensure both development and security， make breakthroughs in growth drivers transformation within 5 years， solve the most pressing difficulties of great concern to the people， promote common prosperity， bring happiness to people across the province， and greet the opening of the 20th CPC National Congress with outstanding performance.

Ruthless as the virus is， humanity will prevail through solidarity and mutual support， and common progress will be achieved. The Friendly Shandong in the new era has a broad vision， the sincerity to welcome high-caliber personnel， and a great platform for innovation and creativity. We will leverage high-level platforms such as the national strategy for environmental protection and high-quality development in the Yellow River basin， the comprehensive pilot area of growth drivers transformation， China （Shandong） Pilot Free Trade Zone and China-SCO Local Economic and Trade Cooperation Demonstration Zone， and seize the opportunity of RCEP， so as to make advances in opening-up on a larger scale and explore new heights in openness. We welcome friends from all over the world to Shandong， where you will find a sound and enabling environment for innovation， business start-ups， investment and living， and feel very much at home and enjoy a wonderful life.

I wish you a happy new year， a happy family， good health， and all the best.
