Connecting with the examples of international competition today, this paper expounds the necessity and importance of persisting in taking economic construction as the center and implementing the strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and education. (1) The essence of contemporary international competition is the competition of comprehensive national strength based on economy and science and technology. (2) In the contemporary international competition, China faces both development opportunities and severe challenges. Compared with developed countries, China still has a big gap and is under the pressure of international comparison. (3) To cope with international competition, China should stick to Scientific Outlook on Development, develop by leaps and bounds, and catch up. Therefore, we must persist in taking economic construction as the center and implement the strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and education. Only by persisting in taking economic construction as the center and implementing the strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and education can China enhance its comprehensive national strength based on its economic and scientific and technological strength and be invincible in international competition (inevitably); Only in this way can China improve its international status and occupy an important position (importance) in the future international structure.
