China's Communist Party propagandist has released its party slogans through the use of modern day method: animated video with rap with a twist of classical Beethoven's music.

“It is everyone’s dream, to build a moderately prosperous society comprehensively,” as the lyrics goes in the cartoon video released by Xinhua, the official press agency of China. 

It concentrates more of  the “Four Comprehensives,” priorities that President Xi Jinping laid out in December 2014 which includes “comprehensive build a moderately prosperous society”, “comprehensively deepen form”, “comprehensively govern the country according to the law” and “comprehensively apply strictness in governing the party.”

“There will be no panic in our hearts, as long as food is not a concern and our hands are full of money,” the main singer belted out in a pure Beijing accent. 

In the ending part of the video, there goes the music in the tune of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony as the characters sung the lines “with  the Four Comprehensives, the China Dream will not be far away.”

Recently, Chinese propagandist have used music and animation to convey their messages. In October, a mysterious production team produced different video praising the party and released a song in English language for the china’s 13th Five-Year Plan.
