Dalian is only one hundred years old on the map. 1897, Russia occupied Dalian in Lushun, so it can be said that there was Dalian in Lushun, and Russian Dalian means distant place, which is still in use today. 1905 In the Russo-Japanese War, Japan defeated Russia and occupied Dalian in Lushun until 1945, when the Soviet Red Army reoccupied Dalian in Lushun. Japan ruled Dalian for 40 years, and as a local management, it was called Guandong County. Jinxian County needs a passport and visa to enter Dalian. From the architectural and urban patterns of Dalian Port, Zhongshan Square and People's Square, it can be seen that Japan's planning for Dalian is long-term, not an expedient measure. Later, Soviet troops occupied Lushun Dalian 10. Due to the historical evolution, Dalian has always been called Lvda, not Dalian. Dalian is in the northeast, but it is separated from the northeast, which is caused by historical reasons.
Dalian has a special status, which is the second reason.
Dalian was once a municipality directly under the central government in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China and was not under the jurisdiction of Liaoning. After the revocation of direct administration, there are many large enterprises in Dalian-central enterprises are not under local jurisdiction. Dalian is listed as a city under separate state planning and has provincial economic rights. In the era of taking economy as the center, if Liaoning province can't manage Dalian's economy, there is nothing to manage, so Dalian people have no sense of belonging to Liaoning. In addition, the special status of Dalian makes Dalian a sub-provincial unit, and the mayor's secretary of Dalian is also the deputy governor and deputy secretary of Liaoning Province, at least the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee. Therefore, when provincial cadres came to Dalian, they felt left out, so some provincial cadres laughed at themselves as "Dalian Province, Liaoning City".
Because all kinds of products in Northeast China are basically exported in the world-famous ice-free port of Dalian, many products are marked Dalian, China, which makes Dalian's name stand out. In order to highlight itself and expand its popularity, Dalian will use its name when holding various international activities, such as Dalian International Fashion Festival, Dalian International Marathon and Dalian International Walking Conference. Highlight Dalian and downplay Liaoning or Northeast China.
Dalian has won many honors and titles, such as the most livable city in the world and the best tourist city in China. These honors go far beyond the scope of the Northeast. In terms of GDP and other economic indicators, such as per capita tax payment, per capita income, deposit amount, etc., it far exceeds the average city in Northeast China and can only be compared nationwide. Especially in recent years, Dalian's environment is very famous overseas, and its reputation is very high, which makes foreigners know about Dalian, but it doesn't matter who Dalian belongs to.
The climate in Dalian is different from that in most parts of Northeast China. Spring, summer and autumn have obvious maritime climate characteristics, that is, spring and autumn are long and summer is cool. Winter is colder because of the northeast monsoon, but it is much warmer than the ice and snow in other parts of Northeast China. Platanus acerifolia can only grow in Dalian, northeast of China. These climatic characteristics make Dalian obviously different from other parts of Northeast China. Therefore, foreigners who come to Dalian, especially the northeast people, can't find the feeling of the northeast.
As Dalian is the window of the Northeast, the frontier of reform and opening up, with more contact with the outside world, relatively more fashionable and trendy, and more open-minded, it seems to people that Dalian people are not the northeast people in their impression, but the northeast people have made Zhao Benshan look like that, which has nothing to do with Dalian people.
In addition, Dalian produces talents, especially sports and literature and art. More than half of the gold medals in the National Games and Liaoning were won by Dalian people, and football has also made Dalian beautiful for several years. These are the foundations for Dalian people to feel very good about themselves, but this feeling has expanded and gradually drifted away from the northeast. As a result, Dalian people don't think they are from the northeast, and the northeast people also expel Dalian people from their hometown in the northeast.
