Folk Differences among Northern Jiangsu, Central Jiangsu and Southern Jiangsu

"Jiangsu is geographically divided into southern Jiangsu, central Jiangsu and northern Jiangsu. Southern Jiangsu is characterized by Wu culture, central Jiangsu by ancient Sui and Tang culture, and northern Jiangsu by Jianghuai culture and ancient China culture." "Suzhong" is a controversial concept, and its geographical scope can be roughly expressed as three types: first, Yang, Tai and Tong are regarded as Suzhong; The second is to treat Ning, Zhen, Yang, Tai and Tong as the Soviet Union; The third is to regard the north of the Yangtze River and the south of the Huaihe River as the Soviet Union.

Jiangsu Province * * * has made a new definition of three regions in the Tenth Five-Year Plan: South Jiangsu includes Nanjing, Suzhou, Wuxi, Changzhou and Zhenjiang, Middle Jiangsu includes Yangzhou, Taizhou and Nantong, and North Jiangsu includes Xuzhou, Yancheng, Lianyungang, Huai 'an and Suqian. Dichotomy and trichotomy actually use natural barriers to divide regional culture.

The larger rivers in Jiangsu are the Yangtze River and Huaihe River, which have often been the front lines of long-term confrontation between the northern and southern imperial courts in history.

So there are obvious cultural differences between Jiangnan and Jiangbei, Huainan and Huaibei.

It is generally believed that the Yangtze River and the Yellow River are the two mother rivers of China, and Chinese civilization is marked by the Yellow River civilization and the Yangtze River civilization.

In Jiangsu, Huainan is mainly influenced by the Yangtze River civilization, while Huaibei is mainly influenced by the Yellow River civilization.

Southern Jiangsu and northern Jiangsu are bounded by rivers, while southern Jiangsu and northern Jiangsu are bounded by money.

The quality of Sunan people makes them closer to money, and they are cautious, while Su Beiren often ignores the cost. People in southern Jiangsu love money more than saving face. Su Beiren is too proud to suffer from money.

For example, if Sunan people earn 654.38+million yuan, on this basis, they will raise 654.38+million yuan from banks to expand reproduction; In Su Beiren, in many cases, 50,000 RMB is used for consumption (which is tantamount to waste), and another 50,000 RMB is reserved for bank deposits.

According to the law of diminishing marginal utility of money, the utility of 1 yuan is far greater for the rich than for the poor, so fiscal transfer payment (national income redistribution) is an effective way to rob the rich and help the poor.

Of course, supervision and capital must go hand in hand.

Many times, at least we should strictly implement the ins and outs of large sums of money in the responsibility system (southern Jiangsu has supported northern Jiangsu for many years, but the elephants sent by Sunan people have become rabbits in northern Jiangsu).

Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet, people in southern Jiangsu are very sensitive to every change of the country's major policies, so as to adjust production as needed in time.

In 1980s and 1990s, when Sunan people made money by ability, Su Beiren made money by postal service (pursuing the iron rice bowl). Since 1990s, Su Beiren has made money by ability, while Sunan people have started to make money by money (using foreign capital, investing in real estate and virtual market). Everyone in northern Jiangsu is used to a stable life, while Sunan people think that they can do anything that is not illegal as long as they can make money. When Su Beiren realized this, the people in southern Jiangsu were one step ahead: they could make money (big or small) without being investigated for breaking the law.

We were wrongly accused.

The decadent concept of "son preference" in northern Jiangsu is often despised by people in southern Jiangsu, and the reason why southern Jiangsu pursues "having fewer children and having more children" is deep-seated.

First of all, Su Beiren is more aware that the cost of raising a child is far lower than the return of the child's success.

It can be understood that if one of the three children succeeds, the whole family will be liberated (the income level of residents in southern Jiangsu is about twice that of northern Jiangsu, and if the probability of cultivating a child with one unit's resources is 20%, then the probability of success of at least one of the three children is 48.8%, while the probability of cultivating a child with twice the resources of Su Beiren is 40%[20%+20%].

Secondly, Sunan people are not as anxious as Su Beiren, because even if their children are incapable, they have accumulated a considerable amount of property to support themselves and their children who may be incapable (this is the bitter fruit caused by unfair policies).

The concept of raising children to prevent old age is deeply rooted in northern Jiangsu, and the rural social security system is extremely imperfect, and most rural residents are in a state of insecurity. They trust their children more than the policies of * * *, while Sunan people prefer to use policies rather than their children (in a big country like China, working-class people are concentrated in large and medium-sized cities, and the collapse of social security network means the loss of national form, and they believe that no * * * dares to take such a big risk).

* * * Doing is one thing (often doing nothing). As a poor and deep charge, college students in northern Jiangsu don't need to shout the empty slogan of "serving the motherland". Supporting oneself is the greatest contribution to Jiangsu's economic development.

First of all, we should dare to admit the gap between ourselves and southern Jiangsu, learn from the people in southern Jiangsu with an open mind, and ask the sister cities in southern Jiangsu not to complain about others, but to be patient, because northern Jiangsu needs time (Rome was not built in a day).

Northern Jiangsu can't count on the relief from southern Jiangsu, but it is important to combine economic development with the improvement of humanistic quality.

In my opinion, the improvement of quality and living standard should keep pace with or be slightly faster than the improvement of living standard.

Su Beiren's head should bulge heavier than his wallet.

Just imagine, if the gap between quality and income is too big, the developed Su Beiren will look like this: clothes in the 20th century, manners in the 1990s, and conservative thoughts in the 1980s (wealth makes them feel at a loss and they don't have the same quality to match this standard of living).

Generally speaking, the gap between the north and the south will be further widened, and the development momentum of northern Jiangsu will be ahead of the average level of the whole province (an economic entity will develop steadily with a huge base and its speed will continue to slow down when it develops to a certain extent).

The average living standard of the whole province will improve steadily, but it is impossible for northern Jiangsu to catch up with or surpass southern Jiangsu in decades.

Of course, northern Jiangsu also has something to be proud of. Abandoning the market economy has brought strong spirit, credit and sense of responsibility to Su Beiren.

In this way, they will integrate into a strange environment in the shortest time, because their lifestyle is more accepted and respected by society.

For example, boys in northern Jiangsu are often synonymous with security. Of course, southern Jiangsu is also a beautiful place in Zhong Ling. For example, the girls coming out there are smart and lovely, and their families are beautiful.
