What is "Guangzhou-style queuing"? What do you think?

Let me answer this question.

I am a Hunanese and have been living in Huangpu District, Guangzhou for the past month. Witnessed "Guangzhou-style queuing" with my own eyes. Their queuing style is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

First, no matter how long the queue is, it is like a long queue with nine twists and turns of the Yellow River. But no matter how long it is, or how winding it is, it is always arranged in order, orderly, and orderly. It is never chaotic, there is no queue cutting, there is no quarrel, and it shows the high quality of the citizens. For example, I participated in nucleic acid testing in Hongshan and Wenchong streets, and thousands of people lined up each time. Especially for the free nucleic acid testing in Hongshan Street, people flowed along the wall of the community hospital and the street walkway, forming a square circle of people that was more than a kilometer long, advancing in order and in an orderly manner.

Second, the small queues are also one after another. It looks like a lot of people are crowded together, but the actual order of the queue is not chaotic at all. I took the train from Changsha to Guangzhou and experienced what it was like to get on the first subway. There were several queues in front of each car door, but when the doors opened, people filed in one after another, without any scrambling or confusion.

The third is to do as the Romans do. Foreigners who come to Guangzhou are assimilated by the civilized behavior of Guangzhou people, and each one of them has learned the civilized behavior of "Guangzhou-style queuing". In the late 1990s, I taught at a university in Guangzhou. I started teaching technical secondary school students and took these boys and girls on several trips, such as to Yuexiu Park, Baiyun Mountain Park and other places. At first, there were one or two young men from out of town who didn't queue up when taking the bus. When the bus arrived, they broke through the queue and got on the bus to grab seats. Later, after receiving quality education and affected by the surrounding environment, they took the bus again and no one rushed to get on the bus to grab a seat. They all lined up obediently, and the environment and atmosphere changed their behavior.

Fourth, due to the strict implementation of queuing rules, not only the masses are conscious, but also the popular demand points sell tickets and supplies, and police or security guards maintain order. For example, a popular real estate project is open for sale and a certain product is hot-selling. In order to get their wish tomorrow, many people came the night before and queued up all night. This kind of queue can last for more than ten hours, and some people have specially prepared special stools for queuing. The scene was in good order, no one jumped in line, and no one had any conflicts because of queue cutting. Demonstrate civilized style everywhere.

The Guangzhou-style queuing not only reflects that Guangzhou’s economic development is at the forefront of the country, but also demonstrates that the overall quality of Guangzhou people is gradually improving. (The following queuing photos were all taken by the author personally at the queuing site in Guangzhou)

Please pay attention.

Educated since childhood, the concepts and information transmitted from family to society, and then from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and overseas have made Guangzhou people civilized earlier than those from other places and other provinces.

Education is very important, knowledge is also very important, and the government’s attention and advocacy are even more important. Over time, generation after generation, this understanding and thinking turns into conscious and conscious actions. This is the reason.

I live in South China West. There is a barbecue shop nearby that is very popular. During the New Year and holidays, many neighbors go to buy roast pork, roast goose, and barbecued pork. There is often a long queue early in the morning. Just twenty or thirty people, sometimes even forty or fifty people. But the team can always maintain one line, and there will never be a second line. Only at this time can I be most comforted, because this is a real team of Guangzhou people. The way Guangzhou neighbors line up, there is no jumping in line or beating the top. "Second Column".

On the contrary, when I often travel to certain places in other provinces, I often encounter very objectionable behavior. For example, one time when I was buying food at McDonald's, I consciously followed the person who was paying. There were actually only two people in the line, but unexpectedly a beautiful girl walked up to me without paying attention to anyone else. . I couldn't help but remind her, I said there were only two people in the team, and you still jumped in line. Did you make a mistake? The woman didn't respond or say anything, and the cashier didn't stop or remind her. It can be said that this is the consciousness and habits of society as a whole and individuals in some areas. They themselves feel that there is nothing wrong with it, let alone disrespect for others and damage to social fairness and order.

These are the differences, the causes of the differences. That's why many people don't want to leave Guangzhou.

But I also sincerely hope that foreigners who speak non-Cantonese can truly integrate into Guangzhou, instead of bringing bad habits and bad habits to ruin the local social atmosphere and good order.

By the way, even if you are a senior white-collar worker from outside, with a salary of tens of thousands, and you are not polite when entering and exiting the elevator, it will only make me look down on you. Nothing else, just because you are polite. don't know!

What I know about Cantonese queuing is only after this epidemic.

The queues of Guangzhou people are crooked and twisted. No matter how long the queue is, they are still orderly. They do not jump in the queue, do not quarrel, and unite regardless of rain or shine. This is the Cantonese style queuing.

If the epidemic is a mirror, Guangzhou in the mirror looks very "coquettish".

I have been living in Guangzhou for four years. I didn’t know about Guangzhou-style queuing before. After this epidemic, I learned about "Guangzhou-style queuing" and how polite, persistent and cooperative Guangzhou people are when queuing. How "coquettish"

The "sudden illness" in Guangzhou has caused the streets we usually see to no longer have people coming and going, and suddenly became quiet. Everything is so unaccustomed. After the epidemic, All parties responded quickly and investigated overnight. Some of our lovely angels are on the front line. We should actively cooperate and take our due responsibilities for ourselves, our families, and not to cause trouble to the country.

After the outbreak, all districts, counties, villages and towns responded to the nucleic acid test of all employees. Only through this epidemic did I know how people in Guangzhou queued up.

They are not afraid of the sun or the storm. They are disciplined and orderly.

No matter how late it is, how hot it is, or how long the queue is, they will always follow the queue. , even if there is no hope ahead, they still will not give up. Unless the doctor says that they are finished today, they will not give up.

Guangzhou has always had the spirit of "fighting hard", usually We can't see it, but who would have thought that Guangzhou people would use their strong and optimistic spirit to fight the epidemic, and you have to admire their spirit.

In the face of the epidemic, the people in Guangzhou around them have been very determined and optimistic. They have taken the idea of ??"being a quilt when the sky falls" to the extreme.

The team doing nucleic acid stretches for several Kilometers later, they still can't stop them from queuing up. Don't be impatient, don't cut in the queue, and line up at the back of the queue in an orderly manner. It's really boring. You can fight with the small landlords, but they will never leave. Don't expect them to meet at midfield. Leave, they may still be there after you leave.

However, when people in Guangzhou line up, you rarely see people jumping in line or quarreling. Overnight nucleic acid tests have been carried out in various places in the past few days. In Guangzhou, where it is hot and full of mosquitoes, everyone in Guangzhou carries a bag. Everyone held up their sunflower fans and lined up, chatting and laughing.

Despite the epidemic, Guangzhou people still maintain their own pace of life. Guangzhou-style queuing demonstrates the attitude and gentleness of Guangzhou people. Their optimism is their confidence in the city.

The optimism of Guangzhou people was not formed in a day or two, but has always been rooted in the spirit of Lao Guangzhou. They are often twisted into a rope. Their unity has been demonstrated again after this epidemic.

Everyone knows that the epidemic in Guangzhou originated from the morning tea shop where grandma went. No one in Guangzhou criticized or blamed grandma. At the same time, everyone also joked about which morning tea was better. It was grandma who led the whole people to get vaccinated. , Guangzhou’s warmth and tolerance are also on full display at this moment.

Vaccines that were previously neglected have become more popular overnight. The vaccines that you ignored in April have become “unaffordable” in June. Recently, there are long queues for nucleic acid and vaccines. Team.

This made me, a foreigner, just witness the "Guangzhou-style queuing" and their optimism and unity. Their strength comes from their confidence in this city.

In the city of Guangzhou, no matter where you are, there is an orderly way of queuing. No jumping in line, no arguing, and no rushing. This is not only quality, but also education from childhood and education from elders. , school education, "Cantonese queuing" has been buried in a young heart for a moment.

In Guangzhou, the most impressive queue was waiting for the No. 39 bus at Tianhe Bus Station.

Especially at five or six o'clock in the evening, it would take at least three or five buses to catch all the people in line. Those who are not familiar with the situation have to run to the first person to see which bus is there. But there is one thing that is very conscious. In fact, there are two queues for this bus! Everyone just follows one another, and the remaining space in the queue is reserved for those who are willing to stand in line! After all, it is the starting point, and after get off work, it is more comfortable to wait than to stand for an hour or two. In fact, most people realize that when queuing, those who jump in will be beaten to death, especially when everyone is working hard. I also tried queuing when I was in school. The teaching building was relatively high, on the tenth floor. Once everyone was queuing, and then a few freshmen came in and surrounded them directly at the elevator door. I was three or four in line, and I couldn't bear to see their shameless behavior. After all, I had to go to the tenth floor. The elevator was so small. I had to wait several times. Everyone was in line. How can I be invincible if I am shameless? I rushed over decisively and yelled at them why they didn't line up. One little girl responded that it's none of your business if you don't line up. I was like, "Hehe." Please, we are from the same school, aren't you afraid that your classmates will see you doing this? Aren't you afraid that the teacher will see you? Is it really not shameful for a college student to not have the most basic qualities? I got angry at that time and told her directly that even if I didn’t take the elevator, I would drag you so that you wouldn’t get in! At worst, I'll take the stairs! I’ve been wasting this with you! I can explain to the teacher if I am late for class. Then they left something crazy and ran away. Maybe, I'm too paranoid, but I feel that the atmosphere of order is often created by everyone. If everyone doesn't say anything, the small group will grow stronger. If everyone does more, Guangzhou-style queuing is not just queuing. , but a part of life!

Cantonese-style queuing has the following manifestations:

Whether it is a bus, a subway station, or even a restaurant, whether it is a column or a curved queue, Guangzhou people queue very smoothly. No one cut in line, there were almost no fights, and I didn’t see anyone getting into a fight because of the queue. Quite conscious and indeed quality.

I think it may be related to several aspects:

The first is education starting from kindergarten.

The second is that when children were young, they followed their parents and witnessed this habitual queuing all day long. And don't quarrel.

The third one is also related to Hong Kong compatriots. There is close communication between Guangdong and Hong Kong, and Hong Kong people are still very disciplined in queuing.

People generally think that the quality of Guangzhou’s population is relatively high. The deeper reason, Lao Li thinks, is that Guangzhou’s economic situation is relatively good; moreover, Guangzhou people have an understanding and understanding of equality in daily life. action.

I have a deep understanding of the relative relationship between economic conditions and social order. Around 2000 is probably a dividing point. The ancients also said that if you have enough food and clothing, you will know honor and disgrace, and if you have enough food and clothing, you will know etiquette.

Under the conditions that the social employment situation is generally relatively good, that is to say, no one intentionally specializes or caters to others too much because they have money or lack of money, nor do they care about anyone because of their official status. A big one or a small one pretending to be a big one. I won’t say things like my dad is so-and-so, because as long as you follow social rules, everyone will have a chance. This is one of the concrete manifestations of the pragmatic spirit of Guangzhou people and a good regional humanistic tradition.

Route 78 is the bus *** that Lao Li often takes. Last year, we queued up many times to buy masks, and queuing up to eat was also common.

I have lived in Guangzhou for more than ten years and I really like the quality of the local people. Generally speaking, regardless of whether they are men, women, old or young, the quality of Guangzhou people really needs to be improved. This kind of Gao is less pretentious than the people in Beijing, and less self-contained and superior in distance than the people in Shanghai. Although Guangzhou is a fast-paced economic city, Guangzhou people separate work and life. At work, Guangzhou people do not procrastinate, stick to their duties, and act quickly; but in life, they are very slow, enjoying things slowly and being polite and worldly. Give some small examples to illustrate the quality of Guangzhou people.

1) Fast food. It's also fast food. If the owner is a local in Guangzhou, he should be more hygienic and the food will taste better.

2) Red envelope. When local people in Guangzhou hold banquets and entertain guests, they just spend money to treat the guests, not expecting red envelopes from the guests. It is estimated that friends from other provinces will be deeply touched during the National Day.

A high school classmate studied in Guangzhou during college and worked there after graduation. After coming back, he found a zebra crossing to cross the road in a very polite manner and waited for the traffic light... 11 o'clock in the evening! ! ! ! There were very few people and cars. I didn’t see a car in ten minutes. I actually walked with him for two miles to find a zebra crossing to cross the road. I wanted to beat him to death...

People in Guangzhou generally queue up very consciously. Yes, they don’t like to jump in line and they don’t like to be jumped in line.

Once I was queuing to enter the station on the high-speed train. There was a man who ran straight in from the back and skipped the queue. The tall man didn't dare to say anything, so he jumped in line and walked to the front. When he passed by Lao Guang, Lao Guang asked him in less than standard Mandarin? Are you really almost there? Show me your ticket? Everyone says that when the time is almost up, you can jump in line and move forward, so you don’t have to wait in line, right? When the man saw someone dare to stop him and ask him this? He relented and said that the elder brother was really anxious but ran inside without showing the ticket.

of!

So they are very conscious about queuing, and they dare to say it when they meet people who are not queuing. They have seen it like this several times.

I have a little emotion. The day before yesterday, I took the high-speed rail from Guangzhou to Guiyang, and then transferred to the high-speed rail to Kaili City. The two teams (one team with red tickets, one team with blue tickets) that were clearly lined up suddenly went to check in. There were four teams, and the eldest mother cut in front of me. I said at the time: Why don't you line up? No one answered me. After checking in, the queue waiting at the platform was disrupted again by the same group of people. I carefully observed the people queuing up. Fortunately, many people born in the 1990s and 2000s were queuing up. Those who were unruly were...I don’t want to name them specifically, lest people say I’m looking at them through colored glasses. Finally, I hope that everyone who sees this answer can be a quality citizen

"Guangzhou-style queuing" also has another feature. People in the queue keep a certain distance between them, unlike what we often see. The queue is like that, people are very close together. This shows that conscious queuing has completely penetrated into the hearts of every citizen.

Queuing is a symbol of modern social civilization. In the city where I live, people usually line up consciously when buying things in stores or going to the hospital. The whole behavior is very orderly, and anyone who cuts in line will be stopped in time. However, in scenes such as getting on the bus or shopping at snack bars, people are often crowded together, which not only looks messy, but sometimes wastes a lot of time.

I think "Guangzhou-style queuing" is first of all related to the quality of personal behavior. Queuing is a sign of civilization, quality, and convenience for yourself and others. When an individual has this awareness, he or she will feel uncomfortable if he or she does not line up. Secondly, it is related to the atmosphere of the entire city. When conscious queuing becomes a habit, everyone queues up and no one jumps in line, then this queuing method is formed; finally, it is related to the publicity and guidance of the local government. Government decision-making is related to everyone's behavior, and citizens are also formed in a subtle way.

This kind of behavior is really worth promoting, and I hope that "Chinese-style queuing" will appear more in the future.
