A Brief Introduction to Shanghai
Shanghai, located at the outlet of the Yangtze River into the sea in east China, is a metropolis, the largest economic center and one of the four cities under the direct jurisdiction of the central government in China.The area of Shanghai totals 6,340 square kilometers. Shanghai has a permanent population of more than 13.50 million while it sees a large moving population of over 2.5 million daily.
Historically speaking, Shanghai is not only a city of a long history and culture but also a heroic city with a glorious tradition in Chinese revolution.
When the western Great Powers broke through the closed gate of China with their gunboats during the Opium War Shanghai was forced open by the colonialists as one of the five trading ports. With concessions carved out in Shanghai the area was reduced to be a “pandemonium of adventurers.” Shanghai is also a heroic city with a glorious tradition in Chinese revolution. First of all ,it is the birthplace of the Communist Party of China. To fight for the national independence and liberation the people of Shanghai waged a series of such epic struggles as Anti-British struggle at the Wusong Estuary, Uprising of the Small Sword Society, “May 4 Movement”for new culture, “May 30th Movement,” three times of armed struggles, “January 28”and “August 13”anti-Japanese battles in Songjiang and Shanghai. And after the War of Resistance against Japan was over the people in Shanghai again devoted themselves to the struggles of opposing autocratic rule and civil war while fighting for democracy and freedom, forming a second battle-line in opposition to the rule of the Kuomintang reactionaries.
With the dying down of rumbling guns in battles for the liberation of Shanghai the city returned to the arms of the people on May 27,1949,and the next day saw the People’s Government of Shanghai proclaimed to be set up ,May 28,1949 being defined as the very “Day of Liberation for Shanghai.”
