General Secretary Hu Jintao's keynote report was prepared by Wen Jiabao. It was delivered to the first session of the Congress on 15 October 2007, and lasted well over two hours, and was broadcast on all major television and radio stations in the country. The event marked the first major live public address by Hu since taking over power in 2002. It laid heavy emphasis on Hu's "Scientific Development Perspective" as the current guiding ideology in succession to Deng Xiaoping Theory and the "Three Represents", with the goal of continuing "Socialism with Chinese characteristics" and eventual "socialist harmonious society".
