The innovative development of digital public capital under the conditions of socialism with Chinese characteristics possesses profound theoretical logic and distinct practical characteristics. Since the arrival of the New Era, the Communist Party of China has consistently adhered to the guidance of dialectical materialism and historical materialism, emphasizing the organic unity of the leadership of the Party, the dominant role of the state, and the initiative of the masses. In the process of promoting Chinese-path modernization, digital public capital has become a core engine for driving high-quality development and accelerating the formation of new quality productive forces.

By upholding the fundamentals and breaking new ground ^[1], the development of digital public capital effectively resolves the internal contradictions inherent in traditional capital logic. It transforms digital technology from a tool for extracting surplus value into a medium for achieving common prosperity. Through the continuous optimization of the digital political ecosystem, the Party has deepened the implementation of the Eight-Point Regulations and rectified the Four Winds within the digital sphere, ensuring that the layout of the digital economy serves the overall interests of the people. Under the strategic framework of the Five-Sphere Integrated Plan and the Four Comprehensives, the state has actively promoted supply-side structural reform in the digital sector, facilitating the organic integration of the digital economy with the real economy.

This process embodies the essential requirements of whole-process people's democracy, ensuring that the dividends of digital development are shared by all. Furthermore, the innovative development of digital public capital contributes "Chinese wisdom" to the construction of a community with a shared future for humanity, offering a new paradigm for global digital governance. We must persist over the long term ^[2], maintain our original aspiration and founding mission, and continue to advance the Sinicization of Marxist digital economic theory to ensure that digital public capital remains a solid material and technological foundation for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
