Shanghai in my mind

Paris in the East, the city that never sleeps in the Far East ... those names that make us daydream are also the first time she met Shanghai. The invulnerability of "Made in Shanghai" in daily life made me more interested in it, and the popularity of a film "Shanghai Beach" in China also left a deep impression on Shanghai. Even if I later learned that "Shanghai Beach" had not been filmed in Shanghai, it didn't reduce my affection for it at all. In recent years, Shanghai has dominated the east of the world with its rapid and stable economic growth, and her enterprising spirit has deeply attracted me. After graduation, I came to Shanghai, an oriental metropolis that once made my heart ache and made me yearn for it infinitely.

Living in Shanghai, I began to get to know Shanghai and gradually integrate into the city. Not so far away, becoming more and more intimate, more and more real.

Shanghai is a revolutionary Shanghai: the first prairie fire star is lit here, and this is the birthplace of our great producer party in China. Since then, China's revolution has taken on a new look. Under the leadership of the party, we opposed all exploitation and oppression, eliminated the unequal social system, established our own socialist Republic, and stood up completely from then on!

It is also the battlefield and base camp for all patriots to fight against hegemony and strive for democracy and freedom. Dr. Sun Yat-sen once led the democratic revolution here; Comrade Zhou Enlai launched three workers' armed movements here; The four-line warehouse witnessed the heroic scene of Xie Jinyuan fighting bloody battles and defending his homeland to the death; Nanjing Road ushered in the heroic People's Liberation Army that quietly entered the city and did not disturb the people at night; Under the neon lights, the soldiers of the Eighth Company stood guard silently for the safety and stability of Shanghai with a sincere heart. Today, Shanghai, which is in a peaceful era, continues to inherit the revolutionary tradition as always, and continues to make its own contribution to the construction of a new China with consistent innovative spirit and revolutionary ambition in economic construction and social development.

Shanghai is a modern Shanghai: rows of high-rise buildings, wide and clean avenues, soaring overhead, tunnels extending in all directions, light rail speeding, and F 1 whizzing by. Modern buildings such as the Oriental Pearl, Jinmao Tower, Yangpu Bridge and Shanghai International Circuit have constructed the urban framework of modern Shanghai. What embodies this picturesque and infinite modernization is the continuous improvement of the quality of Shanghai citizens, the modernization of Shanghai's urban construction and the modernization of its economic development level. Walking in the street, ordinary Shanghai citizens who speak fluent foreign languages and communicate with foreign friends can be seen everywhere. In community schools, surfing the Internet at a computer desk is no longer a patent for young people, and silver-haired aunts and grandfathers have long been familiar with it. On the roadside, the elderly, the sick and the disabled and other people in need cross the road. At the crossroads, I try my best to show the way to pedestrians. On the bus, it has become a routine to get up and give your seat to the elderly and infirm. This modern quality of citizens has provided a steady stream of impetus for the development of Shanghai. In terms of urban construction, Shanghai will integrate its own development into the general environment of China's economic development and world development, not only to build a Shanghainese Shanghai, but also to build a central city that will drive China's economic development and become one of the world's trade centers and financial centers. This concept of modern urban construction, which is in line with the world and actively integrated into the world, has greatly promoted the development and modernization of Shanghai's urban construction. After blowing the horn of developing Pudong, Shanghai has developed at a high speed with a double-digit economic growth rate every year, which has become the engine of China's strong economic growth. While promoting the development of the national economy, it took the lead in realizing modernization. It is under the support of this high-speed economic development level that Shanghai's urban modernization level is getting higher and higher, making Shanghai more and more beautiful and attractive!

Shanghai is the Shanghai of the world: since ancient times, Shanghai has never lacked contact with the world. 1843, Shanghai officially opened to the outside world, thus opening the door to the world. From then on, all kinds of westerners and all kinds of western utensils began to enter Shanghai, with rows of foreign houses, open foreign streets, foreign languages, foreign language newspapers, foreign language signboards and foreign language advertisements. Under the influence of this western culture, the industrious people of Shanghai built Shanghai into the largest city in the Far East at that time and became an international financial and trade center on par with Paris and new york, thus establishing their own position in the world. Today, the "World Architecture Expo" still standing on the Bund, the Catholic Church in Xujiahui Park and the garden houses on the hengshan road can all tell you that glorious history. After liberation, due to the hatred and blockade of western imperialism, Shanghai's contact with the world was temporarily interrupted, and she was silent for some time. Since the reform and opening up, on the premise of equality and free exchange, Shanghai has once again returned to the world stage, acting as a deep-water bomb to actively integrate with the world, learn advanced western science, technology and culture, and develop the national economy, and giving full play to its role as a window. We should base ourselves on the domestic market, serve the whole country, look at the world, make full use of foreign resources and advanced technology, and promote the economic and social development of Shanghai and even the whole country. Today, Shanghai has become the city with the closest connection between China and the world. The most fashionable and popular information, the latest ideas and the most advanced technology are all transmitted to China through Shanghai. And all kinds of domestic information will also be released to the world through Shanghai to let the world know about China. Economically, Shanghai is inextricably linked with the world. At present, Shanghai has established trade relations with more than 70 countries and regions in the world. More than half of the top 100 industrial multinational companies in the world choose to invest in Shanghai; There are as many as 200 commercial foreign financial institutions and representative offices in Shanghai; Most of the world's top 500 enterprises have opened branches in Shanghai or set up Asian headquarters; Some international forums, conferences and exhibitions are also held in Shanghai. 1999 international fortune forum, 2006 5438+0 APEC meeting, 20 10 World Expo ... all these fully show Shanghai's image and position in the world, and its position as one of the international economic, trade and financial centers in the new century has been initially established.

With the increasing internationalization of Shanghai, more and more foreign friends come to Shanghai to work and live here, make friends here, settle down here, and enjoy family happiness here, thus truly realizing the dream scene of "brothers all over the world" in China's ancient ideal. Shanghai is not only Shanghai in Shanghai, but also Shanghai in China. This is an international Shanghai and the Shanghai of the world. Shanghai is beautiful and charming, which is attracting more and more people to come here and build a more beautiful and charming Shanghai. Everyone has their own beautiful Shanghai in their hearts, and everyone is adding their own beauty to Shanghai. Because of this, Shanghai will become more and more beautiful. Our life is rich and colorful because of Shanghai, and Shanghai is more charming because of us!
