What misunderstandings do northerners have about Guangxi?

"I am a student in Jiangsu, admitted to Guangxi, where you are particularly poor. I am so fucking wronged! " A paragraph on the Internet made me dumbfounded. There are too many misunderstandings about Guangxi, a border province.

I have encountered many wonderful problems in these years. Guangxi is really different from what you think!

"Guilin's landscape is the best in the world", a poem tells the charming scenery of Guilin. Lijiang River landscape, Yangshuo West Street and Longsheng Terrace are even more famous.

Not only China people but also foreigners know the fame of Guilin, so many people think that the capital city of Guangxi is Guilin.

Unfortunately, the capital of Guangxi is Nanning, not the more famous Guilin or Liuzhou.

What kind of city is this? The green of half the city is surrounded by the blooming season of Yongjiang River and bougainvillea, just like crossing into the fairy tale world of Miyazaki Hayao. In addition, Nanning won the UN Habitat Award.

Many people have the impression that Guangxi has dark skin, short stature, prominent mouth and wide nose, and all kinds of physical features add up. Many people use "monkeys" to describe the image of Guangxi people.

First of all, most parts of Guangxi are subtropical, with plenty of sunshine, so the skin is darker. But no one is stupid! The sun can hold an umbrella, and ultraviolet rays have sunscreen. With more and more modern people staying indoors, there are fewer and fewer people with dark skin.

Secondly, short people have no basis. The data shows that the average height of men in Guangxi is 169 cm, and that of women is 158 cm. Although not as good as Shandong's 175 and 169, the average height of most southern provinces is similar.

Finally, the prominent mouth and wide nose wings do exist, but they do not affect the appearance. There is plateau red in Qinghai and Tibet, and thick lips in Shandong and Hebei. It is really difficult to determine which one is beautiful and which one is ugly. After all, the old saying goes well, "Radish and cabbage have their own love."

In fact, I have been in Guangxi for so many years. Tall girls with long legs are not uncommon, and there are also many tall and burly boys.

As far as looks are concerned, there are many celebrities in Guangxi, such as Angel in Nanning, Qiao Zhenyu in Guilin and Heizai in Baise.

On the height, Liuzhou basketball star Zhu 200 cm, Nanning pop singer Fox Xia 18 1 cm. ...

For a long time, China has a saying of "North Tianjin, North Sea and South China Sea", so many people think that Guangxi is a pyramid scheme den.

This may be the biggest misunderstanding of Guangxi! There are many cases, but most of them are outsiders. Let me show you two numbers. Pay attention to repatriation data.

What does "education repatriation" mean here? In other words, after people outside Guangxi are suspected of pyramid schemes, they should be educated first and then sent back to their hometown. From the above two data, it is not difficult to find that the number of MLM personnel in other provinces is indeed quite large. Therefore, the "North-South Sea" is the biggest pot carried by Guangxi people.

After Jiangsu candidates were admitted to Guangxi universities, they complained on the Internet that Guangxi was a place of "extreme poverty".

When I am chatting with some friends, they will also ask me this question: Do Guangxi people ride horses to work? Is Guangxi electrified? Is there a high-speed train in Guangxi? Is Guangxi a poor mountain nest?

Let me analyze it and see if Guangxi is a poor mountain nest.

In 2020, among the 3 1 provincial administrative regions (excluding Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan), Guangxi's GDP will rank at least at 19, which is similar to that of Chongqing 17 and Yunnan 18.

During my years in Guangxi, I have seen many luxury cars. Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Ferrari, Rolls-Royce and Maserati near Vientiane City are not uncommon.

Although Guangxi is not very rich, it is not poor, and it belongs to the middle economic level in all provinces. Do you see through the appearance and weight of gold and silver again, like a poor man?

Guangxi is not a mountain cave, and its landform is generally mountainous, hilly and flat, in which mountainous areas account for 37.8% of the total area.

The mountainous areas in Guangxi are relatively concentrated, and most of them are Castel landforms. These are the ecological wealth of Guangxi, providing rich ecological resources, tourism resources and mineral resources, especially the scenery of various caves is amazing.

1. There is a country supermodel and online celebrity in Hengxian County. His name is Lu.

2. Guangxi is known as the hometown of nonferrous metals, among which Nandan tin mine, Pingguo bauxite mine and Ningming bentonite mine are the most famous.

The uranium mine of China's first atomic bomb came from Zhongshan, Hezhou.

4. Internet celebrity snail powder is an intangible cultural heritage, and Liuzhou has also established a snail powder college.

5. There is a kind of "Four Famous Pottery" in Guangxi called Ni Xingtao, whose craft level is not worse than Yixing Zisha Pottery.

6. 70% of man-made products in the world come from five continents, and the gems you wear are probably produced and processed here.

7. The magic car "Wuling Hong Guang" was produced in Liuzhou.

8. There are many celebrities in Guangxi. Chow Yun Fat is from Cenxi, Wei Wei is from Liuzhou, Zhao Chuan is excellent, and Li Ning is a guest. ...

Guangxi is a place with beautiful scenery, and its economic level can't keep up, but its growth rate is as high as 3.7%, which is in the stage of rapid development. And the people here are very enthusiastic and not exclusive.

However, due to the limitations of people's cognition and the existence of some regional blacks, many people have many misunderstandings about Guangxi. As a member of 9.6 million square kilometers, I sincerely hope that you can love everyone in this land as much as you love your hometown. At the same time, I hope everyone can improve their understanding of Guangxi and abandon the bad habits of regional discrimination and regional ignorance.

"The last straw! Why do you look down on us Guangxi people? I don't understand why Guangxi people should be misunderstood, saying that we are a hinterland, holding a dog meat festival, and we all like to be online celebrities, like monkeys ... "

There are too many places where Guangxi people are misunderstood. Let me talk about these points. Don't be dissatisfied! I just hope that everyone can look at Guangxi objectively and stop labeling Guangxi at will!

Myth 1: Guangxi people love to eat dog meat, and they also hold a "dog meat festival" in Yulin.

The real dog meat festival originated in Hutou, Jinhua, Zhejiang. According to legend, it existed at the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty, and it has a history of nearly a thousand years. Until 20 1 1, the Hutou Dog Meat Festival in Jinhua, Zhejiang Province was terminated due to animal protection protests, and there is no such festival now.

Guangxi Yulin Dog Meat Festival. In Yulin, there is no official dog meat festival at all, just a matter of personal consumption habits.

But why is it misunderstood? Because every summer solstice comes in Yulin, litchi is ripe. To celebrate this understanding, generous and hospitable locals like to invite friends and relatives to taste fresh litchi, have dinner, drink and eat dog meat.

Then this tradition was spread and amplified, and various reports appeared, so it was called Yulin Dog Meat Festival. Actually, it's more appropriate to call it litchi Festival.

The habit of eating dog meat has existed since ancient times. Su Dongpo, a great writer in Song Dynasty, likes to eat dog meat. Like Guangdong, Hunan, Zhejiang and other provinces, Guangxi likes to eat dog meat, and many people don't eat it.

Myth 2: People in Guangxi are generally short.

Some people say that people in Guangxi are generally short, and the average height of men and women ranks first in the country. I think this is an ignorant misunderstanding of Guangxi people.

The data circulating on the Internet are 168.96cm for male adults and 158.96cm for female adults in Guangxi, and both men and women rank last, saying that Guangxi people are short. Isn't this conclusive evidence?

This idea is a biased misunderstanding. First of all, we should objectively see that this is the average data, that is, there are both tall and short people in Guangxi, and their height is average, not everyone is short.

In addition, through the data, it can be found that the average height of men in Guangxi is less than 1 cm compared with those in Hunan, Yunnan, Guizhou and other provinces with higher rankings, and the height data is also very close, not to say that the difference is 10 cm. Why are people in Guangxi poor?

The average height of women in Guangxi is 158.96 cm, which is less than 1 cm compared with Jiangxi, Tibet and Gansu.

1 cm is not much. Don't say that Guangxi people are short. In fact, everyone is similar. No one is a "giant", don't "pot calling the kettle black".

The famous basketball player with a height of 2.0 1 m comes from Liuzhou, Guangxi, while another basketball player from Guangxi, Xu Zhonghao, is 2.12m tall and comes from a remote mountain village in Nanning. There are 4 people in their village who are more than 2 meters tall and 8 people who are more than 1.9 meters tall. Four people were selected for the national sports team and seven for the provincial team (both men and women rely on the ball). If their village organizes a basketball team, the height alone is enough to make the opponent "respect three points"!

Not to mention that Guangxi people are short, that province has a distinction between height and height.

Myth 3: Young people in Guangxi are lazy and want to be online celebrities.

Some people misunderstand Guangxi people and think that young people in Guangxi are lazy and want to be online celebrities. This is also a superficial cognition.

There are indeed many well-known online media figures in Guangxi, such as cousin, Xiao Jiji, Mo, Xiao Liu, fish pond owner and professional Xiao Jing.

However, I don't want to be an online celebrity, because I am lazy. On the contrary, I must manage the media well. It's easier, even harder, to work without eating. Moreover, flexible employment and entrepreneurship on the Internet is also a trend in the future.

At the same time, the young people in Guangxi I know around me are basically hardworking, hardworking, United and brave. My college classmates in Guangxi, after graduation, some became teachers, lawyers and engineers, from all walks of life.

In Nanning, Guangxi, there was a man who opened a small shop and became popular because he looked like Show Lo. He is called "Nanning Show Lo". It is said that many online celebrity teams want to spend a lot of money to sign a contract with him, but he is unmoved and devotes himself to running his own small business.

Myth 4: Guangxi is very poor.

To say that Guangxi is poor is also a one-sided understanding of Guangxi. It is estimated that the person who said this still stays in the media reports 10 years ago, which will lead to misunderstanding of Guangxi people.

Good news came from 165438+20201October 20th: all the 54 poverty-stricken counties in Guangxi have taken off their hats, and Guangxi is not what it used to be.

Now there are Nanning, Liuzhou, Beihai, Qinzhou and other modern big cities in Guangxi. There are also a number of famous enterprises such as Wuling Automobile Company, Nandan Nonferrous Metals and Shenglong Metallurgy. Guangxi has developed railway and highway transportation; The construction of new countryside is brilliant, and every village has a hard cement road, which is no longer the "backcountry" in the past!

In addition, the China-ASEAN Expo will be held in Nanning permanently, which will bring economic development opportunities to Guangxi and make its economic development better and better. In the past, Guangxi only developed slowly, but in recent years, the momentum is very good and the growth rate is relatively fast. In 2020, Guangxi's economic growth rate is as high as 3.7%, with excellent results.

Myth 6: Guangxi people speak Mandarin with funny accents.

The Guangxi Mandarin accent heard in the online video is humorous, which makes some people mistakenly think that Guangxi people speak like this. In fact, this is a great misunderstanding of Guangxi.

Many of the Guangxi accents spoken in online video shooting are deliberately imitated by them, and even some people from the media have spent a lot of time learning them.

There are many real dialects in Guangxi, including various dialects. Many people in Guangxi can speak more than three languages, such as vernacular, Hakka and Zhuang. The vernacular is a popular language in Guangdong and Guangxi, and its birthplace is Guguangxin in Guangxi, which is now Wuzhou City.

Myth 7: There are too many electric cars in Guangxi.

It is also a misunderstanding to say that there are too many electric vehicles in Guangxi. In fact, I often travel to Beihai, Qinzhou and other places or visit relatives, and I don't see many electric cars.

The reason is that they want to drive motorcycles or "boats" that use the same fuel, and plug-in electric vehicles are not very popular. The number of electric vehicles seen in local streets and alleys is not much different from other second-and third-tier cities.

Myth 8: Guangxi is all Zhuang people.

The full name of Guangxi is Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, with a population of 10 million. Moreover, Guangxi is also the province with the largest number of ethnic minorities in China, including Zhuang, Yao and Miao, where more than 44 ethnic minorities live and work in peace and contentment.

However, the largest population in Guangxi is the Han nationality, and everyone lives in harmony and develops together.

There are many ethnic minorities and rich cultural and artistic exchanges, which makes Guangxi particularly attractive.

Write at the end:

No matter which province has its advantages and disadvantages, everyone is from China, so we should treat people in each region objectively and rationally. Don't misunderstand Guangxi people just because you haven't been there or don't know them. Learn to think independently and don't blindly label others!

There is a mysterious palace in Guangxi, which is solemn and solemn. However, even the locals don't know who built this palace, why it was built and what it was used for.

Folk songs are mainly popular in ethnic minority areas such as Zhuang and Dong, and have been passed down since ancient times. Zhuangxiang is known as the "sea of songs", laughing and cursing, and exporting into songs. In recent years, the "March 3rd" statutory holiday vigorously promoted in Guangxi is a traditional festival with the theme of "Shan Ge" in Guangxi, a traditional outing song of Zhuang people and a traditional festival of ancestor worship.

At present, folk songs are mainly popular in Zhuangxiang area centered on Nanning, the capital of Guangxi, including Laibin, Chongzuo, Hechi, Guigang, Qinzhou, Baise and other cities and counties. In southeast Guangxi, which is dominated by Han nationality, it has not been popular yet.

Geographically speaking, Guangxi has always belonged to South China together with Guangdong and Hainan. Why is it generally believed that Guangxi is the western region now?

Originally, when the country determined the strategy of "western development", according to the economic analysis of Guangxi at that time, the conclusion was that the development data of Guangxi was just at the average level of western provinces. Therefore, in order to accelerate the economic development of Guangxi and bring Guangxi into the western region, the state has given corresponding preferential policies.

The truth is that there is neither official nor traditional "dog meat festival" in Yulin, Guangxi. Dog meat is a common daily food in Yulin, Guangxi. By the solstice of summer (not limited to the solstice of summer), litchi, a local specialty, is on the market, and people like to stew litchi and dog meat together to make it delicious.

Later, some animal lovers collectively went to Yulin to protest in various ways, including some influential figures. Coupled with the rise of the internet and the help of various media, they finally held a "dog meat festival" that was not recognized by the government and the people.

Guangxi is a veritable "flour world", because Guangxi is a rice-growing area, and people have invented all kinds of flour in their lives. In addition to Liuzhou snail powder, there are Nanning Laoyou powder, Guilin rice noodles, Yulin beef brisket powder, raw powder, Niuba powder, Qinzhou pig's foot powder and so on.

Guangxi people don't eat jiaozi during the New Year, and they don't like jiaozi at ordinary times.

People in Guangxi eat zongzi in the New Year. Moreover, zongzi in Guangxi is very distinctive. A zongzi weighs two or three kilograms. On New Year's Eve, the whole family is round and round, sharing a freshly baked, steaming oversized zongzi, which is particularly festive. When you arrive in Guangxi, don't miss the delicious zongzi.

Guangxi people's code-guessing culture when drinking has its own local characteristics. Code guessing is not vulgar, but a kind of wine culture, which is conducive to the communication between folk friends and active atmosphere, similar to drinking and boxing in other places. It's just "code guessing" in Guangxi. If you want to practice, you can't practice it for about a year without drinking dozens of kilograms of rice wine.

Code guessing not only pays attention to personal momentum, finger flexibility, exaggerated movements, sharp expressions and other action languages, but also pays attention to the coordination of actions, voices and expressions between two people and the use of live props. When guessing the code, the two sides fought wits and were full of fun.

Guangxi's economic development level is relatively backward, and there are not many well-known products, but the following products are closely related to your daily life.

Yuchai Group: the world's largest production base of medium-tonnage diesel engines

Wuling Automobile: China Shenche

Guangxi sugar industry: If Guangxi sugar sneezes, the national sugar price will catch a cold.

Guangxi Fruit: Guangxi has become the largest fruit base in China, among which Wogan, Shatangju, Pitaya and Passion Fruit rank first in the country. According to estimates, the per capita fruit output in Guangxi has reached about 700 kilograms, which is a veritable hometown of fruits.

Besides the Lijiang River in Guilin, the Silver Beach in Beihai, Guangxi, which has the reputation of being the first beach in China, is also famous. There are also famous scenic spots such as Sanniang Bay in Qinzhou, Daxindetian Waterfall and Longji Terrace.

On the Yulin River in Guangxi, there is also a mysterious palace: Tian Yun Palace, where treasures are priceless. However, when you ask the local people, you don't know who built the palace or why.

The true folk customs in Guangxi are simple, brave and hospitable. I remember when I was at school, a young man from Guangxi came from afar with a special product from his hometown: jackfruit, which I told my classmates to try, was picked from my own fruit tree. At that time, I saw such a big fruit for the first time. It was amazing, amazing.

Summary: I don't know if I don't go Guangxi is really great. In addition to the above, there are more wonders in Guangxi waiting for us to discover and experience.

Guangxi is the only province that has a four-day holiday on March 3rd. Guangxi is the only permanent venue for the China-ASEAN Expo and a frontier province connecting ASEAN countries. Baise, Guangxi is a red revolutionary base; Bama, Guangxi is the hometown of longevity in the world; Guangxi is the only coastal and riverside minority autonomous region in China. Wait a minute.

In college, a girl from Jiangsu in our class said we were short and ugly. In fact, she is the shortest and ugliest one in our class, which killed me [laughs] [laughs].
