What are the personality characteristics of Sichuanese?

First, it is like a mountain torrent rushing out of the gorge, which is somewhat "rebellious", but "the rebellion is magnificent and amazing". No matter what their status or occupation, Sichuanese are always permeated with a spirit of hard work, courage, fearlessness and courage. The formation of this cultural character is inseparable from its geographical conditions. The Sichuan Basin has complex terrain, high mountains and deep valleys, from which the surging flood will eventually reach the Yangtze River. Thanks to the nurturing and nourishment of the mountains, rivers and cultural spirit, Sichuanese are often unknown out of their struggle against poverty and backwardness and their pursuit of a better life, but once they break through the bottleneck phenomenon and rush out of the "most narrow gorge"-Kuimen, they have a great ambition to never look back and even do something shocking. In this regard, Yu Qiuyu praised passionately in "Cultural Journey Three Gorges": "People who set out from the Three Gorges are a little rebellious, and they are all rebellious ... magnificent and amazing."

second, it is like a wet wood "pocket" (root) that will eventually ignite, which is famous for its strong "patience". Patience is a characteristic of East Asian civilization, and Sichuan is a typical example of patience. On the one hand, this kind of character is formed in their long-term struggle with the harsh natural environment. In productive labor, relying on this spirit, they "want to try to compete with God" and never look back without seizing high yield, showing the heroic spirit of man conquering nature and not bowing to nature. On the battlefield of killing the enemy, with this spirit, they dared to see the red with their bayonets, fought bravely, and repeatedly made outstanding achievements. On the other hand, Sichuanese who are accustomed to living in a relatively superior natural environment have also developed a character of being content with the status quo and being happy with the situation. As long as their basic life can be maintained, they are generally unwilling to abandon their original way of life and life track. Therefore, even if they are oppressed and bullied, most of them take the word "forbearance" as the first priority, endure it again, and even bear the burden of humiliation. Northerners are like burning coals, and when the road is rough, they draw out their swords to help each other, and they are dissatisfied and angry. Sichuan people, on the other hand, tend to take the traditional way of "tattooing", venting their resentments with humorous and witty words and incisive satire. Sichuanese always do everything in obscurity at first, but it is only at the critical moment that they are vigorous, shiny and hot.

Third, it is like "vigorous grass" in the high wind, full of the spirit of "loyalty and brave sacrifice". In the era of national reunification and people's living and working in peace and contentment, most Sichuanese are unknown, and after paying a job, they are simply role models for the people. However, at the critical moment of history, when domestic troubles and foreign invasion seriously threaten the survival of the nation, it will show a strong spirit of "loyalty and sacrifice" like "strong grass" in the high wind. For example, before War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, due to years of infighting among Sichuan warlords, Sichuanese were regarded by Chinese people as people who were "afraid to fight in public and brave to fight privately". However, the fire of the Anti-Japanese National War aroused Sichuan people's national consciousness and patriotic enthusiasm, and made them throw themselves into the torrent of defending their country without hesitation. During the eight-year struggle, the Sichuan Army fought against the well-equipped Japanese army with inferior weapons, and its blood spread all over Jianghuai and Hehan, and its fame spread in three mountains and five mountains. At the same time, the Sichuan elders in the basin added nearly 3 million soldiers to the whole country, which led to the saying that "there is no army without Sichuan" in the anti-Japanese front; For the country to bear one-third of the total financial expenditure; It has provided 38.5% of the total rice for the whole country ... The contribution made by Sichuan people in the eight years of anti-Japanese war has been highly praised by all walks of life in the country.

With the migration of immigrants and the circulation and trading of commodities, interpersonal communication in Sichuan is unprecedented, which greatly highlights the personality characteristics of people everywhere; The local customs infiltrated and merged with each other, and finally formed the unique cultural characteristics of Sichuan.
