This new era brings with it many connotations, including the deepening and expansion of reform across the board, dazzling results in socioeconomic development, and bold aspirations for China to forge forward as one of the world's major countries, but most importantly, it signifies the glorious path ahead for the Chinese nation.

This is an era in which the Chinese nation will create a brighter future for itself amidst new tests and challenges, and an era in which each individual can create a better life for themselves by fighting and persevering through all types of adversity. It is apparent from looking at both the past and the present that the direction, destiny and dynamism of Chinese literature and art are all intimately linked to the grand flow of history.
