"Fifty Glorious Years 1949-1999" (光辉的五十年1949-1999), designed by the Museum of the Chinese Revolution (中国革命博物馆) and published by the Zhongguo funü chubanshe (中国妇女出版社) and the Zhongguo dabaike quanshu chubanshe (中国大百科全书出版社) in 1999, is a series of 20 posters devoted to the period 1949-1999.

The developments that occurred after the adoption of Deng Xiaoping's strategy of Reform and Opening Up (改革开放) in 1978 receive more attention than the events preceding 1978. In that sense, the series celebrates the successes of Deng's actions. Jiang Zemin, Deng's successor, takes the credit for these successes as well.

The title reads "17. A new trend of civilization spreads across China" (17. 文明新风遍神州).

The text reads "Building a high level of spiritual civilization is an important goal and guarantee for modernization. The socialist spirit of the times is embodied in heroes and role models such as Lei Feng, Jiao Yulu, and Kong Fansen. Since the reform and opening up, the general public has actively participated in the creation of spiritual civilization, patriotism, collectivism, socialist education, and the construction of social morality, professional ethics, and family virtues, and has achieved great results. The new wind of civilization is blowing across the land of China." (建设高度的精神文明是现代化建设的重要目标和重要保证。在以雷锋，焦裕禄，孔繁森等为代表的英雄模范人物身上，集中体现了社会主义的时代精神。改革开放以来，广大群众积极参与精神文明创建活动，爱国主义，集体主义社会主义教育和社会公德，职业道德，家庭美德的建设，都取得了很大的成绩。文明新风吹遍神州大地).
