Over the past three years, Xi's governance theories have been used as a roadmap for the country's development, as the wold's second largest economy was in dire need of structured methodologies to face its reform test.
China is facing slower growth and trying to shift its economy from a focus on high growth to a more sustainable framework.
Xi advocates supply-side structural reform, which will advance economic restructuring by reducing ineffective and low-end supply, and boost productivity by expanding medium-to-high-end supply.
Experts say supply-side reform will be a distinctive feature of China's economic policies in 2016 and beyond.
Xi's thoughts go far beyond the economic field.
His anti-corruption campaign, to strengthen the 87-million-strong CPC, has drawn worldwide attention. The punishment of senior officials including Zhou Yongkang, Bo Xilai and Ling Jihua for corruption has shown Xi is determined to make the Party cleaner, media have said.
Xi also launched China's biggest military reform in decades to make the People's Liberation Army a stronger and more effective fighting force that maintains absolute loyalty to the Party.
In the diplomatic sphere, Xi has been advocating a global community of shared future. A series of initiatives including the Belt and Road Initiative and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank serve to highlight China's image as a responsible and active player in global development.
Xi's governance thoughts have been well received overseas, too. "Xi Jinping: The Governance of China," is available in more than 100 countries.
Zhang Zhao'an, an NPC deputy from Shanghai Municipality, said allegiance to Xi is a necessity to reach consensus among the entire nation to promote reform and opening-up.
"While we are handling the complex economic situation at home and abroad, we can not afford to loose direction or force. We must line up with the CPC Central Committee and Xi as the core," said Zhang, vice director of economic research center under Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences.
Zhu Yilong, a CPPCC National Committee member and vice chair of the All-China Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese, said the success of the world's second largest economy will not come easily. Stability and people's unified thinking are imperative to China's development.
"Xi has won the support of the people," he said. "The time is ripe for raising the 'four consciousnesses'."
