Do you know Little Xinjiang? The Golden Triangle area concentrates on the development after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Many years ago, I once did a test on the Internet: What's your impression of Xinjiang? The answer is not optimistic. The answers that most people blurt out are: raisins, chocolate and oil. Xinjiang gives people a thin impression, which is out of proportion to one-sixth of China's land area.

Of course, the internet has developed rapidly in recent years, such as media, e-commerce, tourism and so on. Brought a lot of information about Xinjiang to mainlanders. If such a test is conducted again, the answer may be different and there may be some detailed answers. But on the whole, people's understanding of Xinjiang is still relatively small.

One of the reasons is that Xinjiang is too big and has a history of more than 2,000 years. -If you count from the descendants of the Yellow Emperor-Prince Changqin, it will be nearly 5,000 years. Even the history since the founding of the People's Republic of China is complicated and confusing. Is there any place that can unite the development of Xinjiang? Yes, the Golden Triangle in northern Xinjiang has condensed the development process of Xinjiang since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

The Golden Triangle in Northern Xinjiang refers to Kuitun, Wusu and Dushanzi, and is the apex of the triangle. The name Golden Triangle has been mentioned a lot in the past few years, but rarely in recent years, but it is indeed a Golden Triangle here.

Let's talk about Wusu first. In the Qing Dynasty, it was called Kulkawusu, which is Mongolian, meaning Qingshui River, referring to the Kuitun River flowing here. In the 12th year of Guangxu, the Zhili Hall of Kuerkalawusu was established, which belonged to Urumqi. Wusu County was founded in 19 13. 1996 was an early place in Xinjiang. Wusu is a favorite place for people traveling westward in Gansu and other places. At present, Chepaizi Town, Jiujianlou Township and other places are related to westbound. The arrival of mainlanders in Xinjiang is one of the basic forms of population in Xinjiang.

One of the reasons for the early establishment of Wusu City is the relatively strong economic development, which benefits from the fertile land and large population. Wusu is rich in water resources, which is the basis of fertile land in Xinjiang. This is a place dominated by agriculture and animal husbandry. Agriculture mainly produces rice and cotton.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Wusu's industrial development is also very distinctive, especially Wusu beer, which has been sold to many provinces in the mainland and has become a well-known brand in this city. Since the new century, industry, agriculture, animal husbandry and tourism have developed rapidly and become a pearl in northern Xinjiang. To a certain extent, Wusu can be said to be the representative of local development in Xinjiang.

Tell me more about Dushanzi. Dushanzi is the earliest oil refining place in China, and the indigenous oil refining before liberation has been talked about so far. Although the refining technology has been upgraded, Dushanzi is still an important base for oil refining in Xinjiang and even in China.

Dushanzi is the epitome of Xinjiang petroleum development, which is one of the earliest places in China. Dushanzi originally belonged to Wusu. After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), China and the Soviet Union set up an oil joint-stock company to study oil refining technology and build an oil refinery. At that time, there was a shortage of managers and technicians, and some cadres were transferred from the army. After short-term training, they took office and became management cadres in the oil industry. Talents from petroleum, electromechanical and other fields from all over the country came to Dushanzi one after another, established a technical foundation and grew up while learning from Soviet experts.

After the Soviet Union returned its shares to China with compensation, Dushanzi Refinery was officially put into operation in China on 1955, and China's technicians supported the heavy responsibility of oil refining, oil exploitation and exploration, and there was basically no technical vacuum period. Later, Karamay City was established, which is actually a city where oil enterprises undertake social functions, and Dushanzi became a district of Karamay.

In Xinjiang, including petroleum, nonferrous metals, geological prospecting and other mineral industries, even industry and agriculture have gone through such a road: first learn from Soviet experts, then rely on themselves, and finally establish a technical team in the industry, which has reached a leading position in many technical research fields, even in the world. Therefore, Dushanzi is not only the concentration of oil refining and mining in Xinjiang, but also the concentration of industrial development in Xinjiang.

Finally, Kuitun. Because Kuitun was related to reclamation, most people thought it was a place name in China, but it was just a coincidence. It is a Mongolian place name, which means "cold", but it is translated into Chinese with the word "tun". Kuitun in Qing Dynasty belonged to Wusu County, which was the military station of Qing army. After the province was established in Guangxu period, Xinjiang was changed into a post station. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Kuitun belonged to a township in Wusu County. 1954 Xinjiang production and construction corps was established, 1957 seventh agricultural division moved to Kuitun. Since then, it has forged an indissoluble bond with the settlement of New China. Kuitun was also classified as Karamay City, which belongs to Ili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture.

During 1975, Sino-Soviet relations were tense, and the deputy provincial government of Yili moved to Kuitun, and then moved back to Yining four years later. Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps has gone through a complicated process such as revocation and restoration, and the basic plate of the Seventh Agricultural Division has been in Kuitun. 1983, Kuitun city and the seventh agricultural division are separated administratively, but the headquarters is in Kuitun. It was not until 20 19 that the seventh agricultural division established Huyang River City, and the division moved to Huyang River, basically leaving Kuitun City.

As we know, the basic sites in Xinjiang are the provincial Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, the Corps and the sub-provincial Ili Prefecture, and the other is Karamay City, where enterprises run the society. The three cities in the Golden Triangle have a deep relationship with these sites, so the Golden Triangle is the epitome of Xinjiang's development after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

The three cities in the Golden Triangle are the throats of northern Xinjiang, which extend to Ili in the west and Bozhou and Tacheng in the north, so they have developed rapidly and formed the Golden Triangle. The three cities are less than 20 kilometers apart, and many places are connected in this year's urban expansion. Although the Seventh Agricultural Division was moved from Kuitun, another attribute of Kuitun, that is, the characteristics that embody the characteristics of Yili Prefecture, still exists. Today, Kuitun City is a municipality directly under the Central Government of Yili Prefecture. With the transfer of social functions, Dushanzi is no longer a social city run by enterprises, but there are traces of oil everywhere and refineries are producing endlessly.

So these three places can be regarded as one place. This place is the epitome of Xinjiang's development after the founding of the People's Republic of China. There are too many ups and downs in Xinjiang's construction, and it can be called Little Xinjiang. Visitors to Xinjiang suggest staying here for one day: having breakfast in Wusu City and feeling the local history. Farming and nomadism have been the basic modes of production in Xinjiang for thousands of years; Dushanzi had lunch, visited oil refining and felt the industrial history of Xinjiang; Have dinner and live in Kuitun.
