Being pragmatic means paying attention to reality and seeking truth from facts, which is a national spirit formed earlier in China's farming culture. Confucius did not talk about "strange, powerful, chaotic and divine", but already focused on social life. Wang Fu's "On the Latent Husband" said: "Adults are not flashy, but gentlemen are pragmatic." Wang Shouren's "Biography" said: "The name and the reality are right, and the pragmatic heart is heavier, then the heart of serving the name is lighter." These thoughts are the embodiment of China culture's spirit of attaching importance to reality and advocating hard work. It rejected vanity, rejected fantasy, despised flashiness, pursued a full and energetic life, and created a splendid civilization in ancient China. As a traditional virtue, pragmatism still shines in our contemporary life.

retreat is relatively pragmatic, which refers to discussing the political, ideological, policy and theoretical aspects of a certain job. Obviously, retreat is essentially different from the "left" set during the Cultural Revolution, and it is also completely different from falsehood, fiction and vanity. Retreat and pragmatism are two sides of the same thing. Retreat is a process of analyzing and studying the feasibility, specific operation and emergency plan of decision-making before decision-making, and a macro grasp of the development law and trend of things. And pragmatism is the process of turning decisions into reality.
