Abstract The Fourth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China marks a significant milestone in the history of the institutional construction of China. The socialism with Chinese characteristics and China's systems of governance are formed in the long-term practice of revolution, construction, and reform. The practices made in Zhejiang Province, Huzhou City, and Zhili County of the socialism with Chinese characteristics and China's systems of governance demonstrate the value of China’s governance in this epoch. Historical experience has shown it is correct, effective and successful for China to uphold and improve the leadership of the CPC, the socialism with Chinese characteristics, as well as the people-centered philosophy of seeking truth from facts. The construction of the socialism with Chinese characteristics and its governance system and governance capacity guarantees the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people, improves social productivity, and safeguards social equity and justice. Chinese governance, by setting an example of “non-Western modernization” for developing countries, promotes and supports the global governance programs of multilateralism, boosts mutual learning among civilizations, and provides reference for the countries and nations who want to accelerate development and maintain their independence at the same time. The pattern of Chinese governance is of considerable significance all over the world.
