In the past 40 years of reform and opening-up, along with the extension of people's public life and the evolution of social public values, Chinese spirit has increasingly become an internal driving force to serve the socialist core values education. It promotes the growth of individual spirit as well as the prosperity and development of social public life and public undertakings. Generated from individual and public lives historically, Chinese spirit must follow its innate rationale, i.e., an organic integration and generation logic based on three elements:"public value identification", "pluralistic value integration" and "social public interest". Only by clarifying the public generation rationale of Chinese spirit well, by telling Chinese stories well, by transmitting Chinese voice well, and promoting Chinese spirit well, can we promote the public-oriented transformation of socialist core values education and provide spiritual impetus for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
