Who can talk about the biggest difference between "Guangzhou" and "Beijing" in life and work?

The big cities I have been in are Beijing and Guangzhou, so I will keep making comparisons. Otherwise, you really can't tell the characteristics of Guangzhou.

The deepest feeling should be tolerance. More than 90% of my colleagues are Cantonese, and they usually speak Cantonese. After I came, in order to take care of me, I usually have occasions, so everyone changed to speak Mandarin. I take notes when the leaders are in a meeting. If there is a pause, someone will ask: don't you understand? Then there are many explanations. They rarely ask me where I come from-occasionally mention where I come from, and someone always interrupts me: you are already from Guangzhou. That sense of identity is really strong.

After staying for a long time, I found that the sense of regional superiority of most people in Guangzhou is not strong. Unlike Shanghainese in Beijing, they are keen to distinguish between locals and foreigners to show their origins. One possibility is that Guangzhou has always been a place where merchants stayed away from the emperor, and modern foreign trade started from this, with frequent exchanges between the north and the south, without orthodoxy or superiority. Second, Guangzhou people have a relatively peaceful mentality. For them, the city is more like an occasion where everyone pursues tangible benefits, rather than a business card that symbolizes identity. Third, the Pearl River Delta urban agglomeration is very rich, and a lot of funds are hidden in the private sector. No one has absolute wealth advantage. In Guangdong, wealth is an important symbol of identity.

On the contrary, Beijing is completely different. "Beijing movies" are particularly powerful, boastful and flashy. The right foot costs three points, and the inexplicable sense of political superiority fills the streets. Just a bus conductor, the estimated income must not exceed 2 K. Asking for directions will also give you the eyes of a few outsiders. Even if you are polite, you can see your disdain for people outside Beijing from his manners and tone.

This inclusiveness can also be seen from the aspect of talent flow. Most job advertisements in Beijing (not to mention civil servants) have to add a sentence: local hukou only. I feel that the people of the whole country are building Beijing for a few local people. Guangzhou is much more open in this respect, and there are few broken things. My girlfriend jumped three times in Guangzhou and came back with all kinds of certificates, but once it was useless-no one looked at it at all. The company is only interested in work experience and performance. Yes, yes, no, leave. The recruitment of civil servants is also much better than that in Beijing, and there is no hukou and fresh year. Facing the whole country, it is relatively atmospheric.

I think the most taboo of a city's development is closed-door narcissism and internal circulation. Without an open arms and posture, there is no soil suitable for talent development, and no matter what political status, long-term planning is nonsense. None of that is reliable. Everything ultimately depends on people.
