Beijing than Shanghai

 Shanghai people to pursue the Chinese civilization, the two extreme regions.
If you try to use the limited word to summarize a city, you give what Beijing and Shanghai under the definition of it?
(a) of the atmosphere, the old, to Beijing; downtown, fine , to Shanghai?
many seniors have already taught us that the best way to sentiment of a city, is to understand that diet and women. The easiest way is to visit several novels describing these cities. because of the sensitive urban writer work, the city is the most intuitive character readers.
not avoid: Beijing and Shanghai who has been in a state of invisible opposition. This confrontation not so much a sense of geographic and economic barriers, as it is from two different roots of the natural and cultural conflict in the city. For example, romantic things, Shanghai alone, and little or no Beijing.
when describing Shanghai, with so few words is able to escape: the ten foreign market, entertainment, flashy bright, colorful world, the pursuit of elegant and refined way of life, is the birthplace of natural Petty Bourgeoisie.
a feature of Shanghai culture is to accept all of the momentum of a comprehensive open to absorb all the essence and garbage. There is also a small bum capitalists, have also split the white elite party, part of everyday kinds of people, different philosophy of existence, the status of the different taste of life, always intertwined in the materialism of ups and downs, their own way. from all over the world, and gathered in the greater Shanghai. Shanghai's true or false, the fun, romantic nature is indispensable.
This is completely different from Beijing. Beijing is a city of slightly rough, vaguely some villages gas mmm probably because it is frequently used by farmers the impact of a city. Boxers such as near, not near as far Wazi Rereading pre-loaded into the medal Beijing, Shaanxi, Royal Fanjia rustic features of Beijing. In Beijing writer's pen is difficult to smell the debauchery, but a quaint and simple. < br> literary theorist Qian Liqun have done the following analysis: First, the origin of Chinese culture in Beijing as one of the Upper Cave Man culture, as Imperial Ming and Qing Dynasties to become the center of Chinese culture in modern times it is difficult and slow slowly through the transition to the modern city. the essence of traditional culture in decline at the same time there tenaciously, thus making changes in a native of Beijing retained. but it has some of the local nature of the Imperial City. And Shanghai a Western model is built according to modern city, it is almost completely natural, without difficulty, and international standards to become the br> (b) From the geographical point of view, can only be a romantic southern patents, Beijing almost no advantage at all.
Beijing is located in the north latitude, Xia Tianqi dead heat in winter and cold weather in such a clear contrast, the No one will feel the ring road in the congestion takes several hours to an appointment, so Beijing is always a week ahead of a date reservation, go out for several hours in advance, when the commencement of the event is the destruction of basic emotions When the soil lacks Petty.
Shanghai is located in the center of the Yangtze River Delta, the climate warm and humid, just like the people of Shanghai soft and personality. It is the largest financial center. Shanghai people to ensure that the basic premise of material life Next, with special attention to the Petty Bourgeoisie excavated bones, especially the pursuit of some of the quality of life trying to live fine.
to the bar, for example, a bar on Hengshan Road in Shanghai than in Beijing's Sanlitun bar stylish and Western style, the style is also more diverse .
Beijing also like to enjoy the pursuit of life, but is basically in line with the public interest, not swagger. take a look described by Lao She, Beijing, Beijing is pursuing the overall mood of the old man: put drive Bird Cage, Liu Wan chess , antique opera. Old Beijing fun to But the neglect of in essence, more emphasis on hierarchy. Beijingers are living around the center of state power, often more comprehensive and thinking bigger picture, there is naturally a strong political awareness and sense of mission. it is difficult to expect Beijing will uphold justice and good at calculating Shanghai people cold, it is difficult to expect chilly Beijing transparent sense diet, is rough, not refined
Beijing, Shanghai ±�� fire, Jiang Zhouzi folder is nothing less than fried pig intestines and fried, fried sausage, not really intestines, is a substitute for meat. but they eat One big advantage is affordable, a carry hungry, two to meet the people's tongue like meat. basically a typical recipe heavy manual labor people.
Shanghai food is not the same. small Shaoxing Baizhan Ji, Jia-gate snack , Fissidens dumpling, pork ribs rice cakes, fried dumpling, etc., numerous. Shanghai's old masters dedicated to patrons tick shells, the shell can tick exactly finished pieces together, Chinese people are most familiar with the piece than in Shanghai both food stamps and half a semi-fried fritters.
After all, romantic attachment is the economy, and independent spirit. In this regard, the Beijing and Shanghai as the business outlook is very different. Beijing, of course there are commercial, those old days The old name is an example. Lao She's famous play Significant a scene: commercial activities should of course seek maximum benefits, but capitalists pores dripping blood, poor workers face with tears, his face always be broad smile Miss.
(d) of Shanghai people to pursue the seem particularly emboldened and family history, for the first eight virtual brain something special Qiaobu Shang eyes.

They r the l word interest in words, boasted. Beijing and Shanghai is more rich than artistic, while the latter is more practical spirit. There is a strange wisdom. Everyone said that Shanghai people bad, but bad must have a sense of proportion. Shanghai will flatter, will those in power, it will catch fish in troubled waters, however, because they have themselves in society in art, they played Debu too far.
can see, the Shanghai people to pursue the religion
