The five development concepts of innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing are the guidance of China’s development under the new economic normal. In this regard, the supreme leader has interpreted it many times.

The supreme leader interprets the "five development concepts" in this way.
【 Managing the overall situation, managing the root and managing the long term 】
Facing the new trends, opportunities, contradictions and challenges of economic and social development, and planning the economic and social development during the 13th Five-Year Plan period, we must establish new development concepts and lead development actions with new development concepts. The ancients said: "If you are rational, things are natural, and things are natural." The development concept is the forerunner of development action, the thing that manages the overall situation, the root, the direction and the long-term, and the concentrated embodiment of development ideas, development directions and development focus. If the development concept is right, the objectives and tasks will be set, and the policy measures will be set accordingly. To this end, the proposal puts forward the development concepts of innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing, and makes a layout of the proposal with these five development concepts as the main line. These five development concepts are the concentrated expression of China’s development ideas, development direction and development focus in the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" and even a longer period, and also the concentrated expression of China’s development experience in the past 30 years of reform and opening up, reflecting our party’s new understanding of China’s development laws.

The supreme leader emphasized that the development concept of innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing embodies the development ideas, development direction and development focus of China in the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" and even in the longer period, and is the direction of managing the overall situation, managing the root cause and managing the long term. It is necessary to grasp the key tasks that can drive the implementation of the five development concepts and promote the implementation of the five development concepts as a whole. For each development concept, we should also grasp the key points to promote each concept to make a breakthrough in practice. This requires us to conduct in-depth investigation and study, not only to analyze the overall situation, but also to dissect the sparrow in depth and put forward feasible policy measures and work plans.

[It is a profound summary]
Whether the development concept is right or not fundamentally determines the development effectiveness and even success or failure. The five development concepts of innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing are formed on the basis of profoundly summing up the development experience and lessons at home and abroad, which reflects the deepening of our party’s understanding of the laws of economic and social development and is also put forward in view of the outstanding contradictions and problems in China’s development.
— — General Secretary of the Supreme Leader’s Speech at the Second Plenary Session of the Fifth Plenary Session of the 18th CPC Central Committee (Excerpt)
We must adhere to the new development concept. The development concept of innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing is a sublimation of our perceptual knowledge in promoting economic development and a theoretical summary of our practice in promoting economic development. We must adhere to the new development concept to lead and promote China’s economic development, constantly solve economic development problems and create a new situation in economic development.

[baton, traffic light]
The new development concept is baton and traffic light. The whole party should unify its thoughts and actions with the new development concept, strive to improve the ability and level of overall implementation of the new development concept, immediately adjust its understanding of inappropriateness, inappropriateness or even violation of the new development concept, resolutely correct its behavior, and completely abandon its practices.

Under the new normal, new changes have taken place in the environment, conditions, tasks and requirements of China’s development. To adapt to the new normal, grasp the new normal, lead the new normal, and maintain sustained and healthy economic and social development, we must adhere to the correct development concept. The proposal analyzes the situation and tasks in the decisive stage of building a well-off society in an all-round way, puts forward and expounds the development concepts of innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing, and emphasizes that the implementation of these development concepts is a profound change related to China’s overall development. The concept of development is the forerunner of development action and the concentrated expression of development ideas, development direction and development focus.

[Problems solved by each]
Innovative development focuses on solving the problem of development motivation, coordinated development focuses on solving the problem of unbalanced development, green development focuses on solving the problem of harmony between man and nature, open development focuses on solving the problem of internal and external linkage of development, and shared development focuses on solving social fairness and justice. These five development concepts are interconnected and mutually promoted, and they are a collection with internal relations. They should be implemented in a unified way, and they cannot be neglected or replaced by each other. If any development concept is not implemented in place, the development process will be affected. All comrades in the Party must improve their ability and level to implement the five development concepts in a unified way, and constantly open up new horizons for development.
