Relative poverty alleviation is explicitly consistent with common prosperity. Relative poverty alleviation, which is part of the modernization of national governance capacity, is both an objective requirement of effective poverty alleviation and an inevitable approach to the realization of common prosperity. The alleviation of relative poverty and the realization of common prosperity are intrinsically coupled because they feature overlapping time sequences, monistic values, superimposed fields, similar systems, and homogeneous elements. The relationship between the two is essentially symbiotic, coexistent, and synergistic. Consequently, how to effectively alleviate relative poverty and build a dynamic longterm mechanism for relative poverty alleviation will be one of the major challenges for China to tackle before it can make more obvious and substantial progress toward common prosperity for all by 2035. This paper proposes relevant countermeasures and suggestions, which mainly concern the building of a dynamic, multi-dimensional mechanism for relative poverty alleviation and a coordinated mode for the two missions. The aim is to achieve a balanced integration of the academic logic, social logic, and policy logic
