Abstract: The “people-centered” philosophy is the original aspiration of Xi Jinping's governance of China and the core notion of his ideology system. The seven aspects of this system - standing of the people, the people as the subject, the people above all, happiness of the people, sharing by the people, unity of the people and evaluation by the people - are intertwined as an integral dialectical oneness to form the system of Xi Jinping's “people-centered” philosophy. The core value of this ideology system is the inheritance and culmination of the traditional people-based idea of China and the spiritual origin of the construction of socialist modernization on an all-round manner. It illustrates the practical vitality of Marxism, embodies the confidence in the state governance of China, and expanses the ideological realm of serving the people of the Communist Party of China (CPC).

Key words: Xi Jinping, people as the center, ideology system, core value
