A themed event covering over 700 party members is quietly rewriting the underlying logic of China's textile industry governance. On July 1, the CPC Committee of CNTAC launched the 'Forever Follow the Party, Weave the Original Aspiration' event across 42 venues to mark the 105th anniversary of the CPC. The core agenda was not routine commendation but a deep institutional review centered on the 'correct performance view.'
Reshaping the Performance View: From 'What Was Done' to 'What Was Done Right'
The most noteworthy signal from the event was Party Secretary Sun Ruizhe's systematic presentation of a 'five-dimensional performance view' framework during a special lecture. He explicitly elevated 'establishing and practicing a correct performance view' as the core lever for guiding high-quality industry development, breaking it down into four dimensions: political direction, value pursuit, working methods, and fine work style.
This is not empty rhetoric. Sun directly identified three major risks—pragmatism undermining political stance, departmentalism impacting overall development, and short-termism affecting long-term growth. For an industry long locked in capacity scale competition, this essentially draws a 'red line' at the governance level: industry association services cannot be reduced to fragmented project stacks but must embed into the long-term logic of industrial system construction.
Industry Service Transformation: Four Roles Redefining Association Functions
The event also disclosed specific achievements of CNTAC in practicing the correct performance view, with the core being the conversion of political advantages into governance efficiency. Sun summarized four experiences: party building leadership, serving the overall situation, demand orientation, and systematic thinking. These form a closed loop, signaling that the industry association is transitioning from an 'information relay station' to an 'industrial ecosystem builder.'
More critical is his redefinition of the association's future role. In the lecture, Sun proposed that the association should 'deliver performance' in four areas: guiding industry development, building the industrial ecosystem, driving kinetic energy conversion, and championing open innovation. This positioning directly responds to three structural challenges facing the textile industry: slowing domestic demand, rising international trade barriers, and green transition pressure.
Institutional Details: Governance Logic Behind Ceremonies
The three ceremonies—new member oaths, '50 Years of Glory in the Party' medals, and seal handovers for adjusted grassroots party organizations—may seem traditional but carry clear governance intent. New member oaths correspond to talent pipeline building, medal ceremonies to industry spirit inheritance, and seal handovers to rigid organizational system implementation.
Notably, the event used a 'main venue + 42 sub-venues' model, covering far more than a single office area. This organizational approach itself sends a message: industry governance is not a Beijing headquarters 'solo show' but a 'symphony' across the national textile industrial belt.
Industry Impact: How Governance Modernization Transmits to the Supply Chain
For textile industry readers, the real value of this event lies in its downstream transmission effects. When the industry association recalibrates service direction with a 'correct performance view,' downstream enterprises and buyers will directly feel three changes:
- Policy alignment will emphasize systemicity over fragmented subsidies or short-term trade show promotions.
- Industry standard setting will focus more on international rule convergence, reducing 'ivory tower' standards.
- Industry services will shift from 'enterprises seeking associations' to 'associations proactively anticipating needs.'
Sun specifically emphasized 'respecting objective laws and activating development momentum' in his lecture. At the operational level, this means the association's future resource allocation will tilt toward long-cycle areas like technology breakthroughs, green transformation, and international compliance, rather than chasing short-term hotspots.
