I. Suzhou-Suzhou 2500 years of origin 1, the end of the Spring and Autumn Period About 2,500 years ago, in the late Spring and Autumn Period, there were three major vassal states in Jiangsu: one was the state of Wu, centered on Suzhou, founded by Ji Taibe, Ji Zhongyong, two of the uncles of King Wen of the Zhou Dynasty; and the other two, namely, the state of Xu and the state of Zhongwu, centered on Suqian, of which the state of Xu was rumored to have originated in the time of Dayu and was founded by Ying Ruomu, the second son of Bo Yi. During this period, Wu's son Helu killed King Bureaucer of Wu, came to power in a coup d'état, and rehired Wu Zixu and Sun Wu. Wu rose to power, moving westward and northward, and Suzhou's chariots wanted to fight for supremacy over the Central Plains, with Xu and Zhongwu bearing the brunt of the battle. However, the Suqian people chose to side with Chu, and also hid the two younger brothers of King Burea of Wu. As a result, King Helu of Wu raised his troops to the north and destroyed Xu and Zhongwu in one fell swoop, and the land of Suqian was incorporated into the territory of Wu. Soon, Suzhou people in order to fight for supremacy in the Central Plains, King Fu-chai of Wu ordered the excavation of General Gan Ditch, open the Jianghuai, the Grand Canal on the stage of history, objectively facilitating the connection between Suzhou and Suqian. 2. The end of Qin Dynasty About 2200 years ago, Suqian had a fierce man - Xiang Yu, the descendant of a Chu general, who had no choice but to flee to Suzhou with his uncle Xiang Liang. Twenty-three years later, Dazhaxiang roar, Xiang Liang, Xiang Yu uncle and nephew responded in Suzhou, killed the county magistrate Yin Tong, led eight thousand Jiangdong word brother, rose against the Qin. After 7 years, Xiang Yu was defeated in the battle between Chu and Han, and felt ashamed to see his parents in Suzhou, so he killed himself by the Yangtze River, leaving a thousand years of hatred behind. 3, Western Han Objectively, at this time, Suqian's economy was far more developed than Suzhou. According to the Book of Han, at the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Suqian had 7 cities, including Linhuai County and Surabaya. Linhuai County (today's Suhuai Yantai) had 268,200 households and 1,237,700 people, equivalent to 2% of the country's population, making it the 6th largest county in the country. The later Su Dongpo chanted, "Linhuai has been full of famous scholars since ancient times". During the same period, there were only 2 cities in the boundaries of Suzhou, containing the rule of Huiji County. However, the entire Huiji County (Southern Jiangsu + Shanghai, Zhejiang and Fujian) was dozens of times larger than Linhuai County, but less populous, with only 223,000 households and 1,032,600 people. Of course, Suzhou was not short of famous men, especially military generals, such as Zhu Baichen, who pacified Fujian, and Zheng Ji, who pacified the Western Regions (the first governor of the Western Regions), illustrating the martial spirit of the Suzhou people. In the later times, Li He lamented, "Why don't men bring Wu hooks to collect the 50 states in the Guanshan Mountains? 4, the end of the Han Dynasty chaos Huang Turban Uprising at the end of Eastern Han Dynasty, unveiled hundreds of years of chaos, Suqian is located in the north and south of the warlords tug-of-war zone, and Suzhou is located in the south of the Yangtze River, coupled with the opening of the Grand Canal in the Sui Dynasty, the endowment of the two regions abruptly changed, the balance of development of the two areas changed dramatically; the opening of the Grand Canal in the Sui Dynasty, the rapid emergence of the cities along the line, such as Suzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, Hangzhou, the Yangtze River and Huaihe River in Yangzhou, Suzhou, and Chuzhou, especially the present-day border of Huai'an in the state of Surabaya, Chuzhou, as the confluence of the Canal and the Huaihe River, rose to prominence because of the river, while the relative decline of the Suqian area. Later, Wu Zetian analyzed Wu County to set Changzhou County, Suzhou boundaries of the establishment of the county increased to three, and Suqian boundaries; however, Suzhou City is not only the state, but also the Jiangnan Dongdao rule (now the capital of the province), the status of the region continues to strengthen, and Suqian boundaries since then with the state capital of the government has no relationship. 5, the end of the Tang Dynasty chaos After the An Shi Rebellion, and ushered in hundreds of years of chaos, the North and South warlords tug-of-war, but also the Yellow River to seize the Huaihuai, Suqian a few times rise and fall, while Suzhou is located in the south, continued to accumulate and develop. To the opening of the Ming Dynasty, Su Su gap at a glance: Suqian boundaries belonging to the Huai'an Province, Fengyang Province, only three established counties; According to the Ming History, Hongwu 26 years, (now the northern part of the Su 80% of the boundary) Huai'an Province, the population of only 80,600 households, 632,500 people, spread to Suqian boundaries, it is even less. During the same period, the established counties of Suzhou reached six, Suzhou City also became one of the richest cities; Hongwu 26 years, (now Suzhou City, Shanghai North) Suzhou Province population of 491,500 households, 2,355,000 people, is nearly four times the entire Huai'an Province. The disparity between the development of the north and the south, I believe, is also one of the main reasons for the later Hongwu drive scattered. 6, Hongwu drive scattered Hongwu drive scattered, in an earlier article, has spoken, mentioned here, Suqian is also one of the destinations of immigrants. Among them, the most representative immigrants to Suqian were Shuyang Hu Lian and Siyang Lin Damu. Hu Lian, whose ancestors lived in Xinchang County, Zhejiang Province, was the third generation of the Shuyang Hu Clan. He was responsible for putting down Portuguese rebellions in Guangdong, as well as copying and improving firearms and arming the Shenji Battalion of the Ming Dynasty, and ultimately reached the rank of Right Minister of the Ministry of Revenue (Vice Minister of the Ministry of Finance). Hu Lian's family had three scholars and two graduates, and he was also the uncle of the great literary figure Wu Cheng'en. Lin Daimu, whose ancestors lived in seclusion in Putian, Fujian Province, was a calligrapher and the author of the stone carving of "Huqiu" on Huqiu Mountain in Suzhou. Over the past 2,500 years, Suzhou and Suqian have experienced great changes in the mountains and rivers; today, under the impetus of the wave of economic integration, the interconnections are becoming increasingly close. Second, Suqian: an important source of new Suzhou people In the past 18 years, Suzhou Mobile Data disclosed that: the foreign population of Suzhou reached 8.318 million, of which nearly 180,000 came from Suqian, accounting for 3.0% of the registered population of the place of origin, equivalent to 3 out of every 100 Suqian household registration holders in Suzhou. Of course, today, while we marvel at the "Suzhou Miracle", we should not forget one Suqian - the old mayor Zhang Xinsheng, who played a key role in the establishment of the Singapore Industrial Park in Suzhou, and who will not be mentioned here. Today, many Suqian people in Suzhou business, 12 years in September, Suzhou Suqian Chamber of Commerce set up, they add bricks and mortar for the development of Suzhou, but also do not forget to feed their hometown, set up a bridge with the development of Su Su***. Mention of the Cebu business, can not bypass Liu Qiangdong. As the creator of the domestic e-commerce giant and host business leader, Liu Qiangdong and Jingdong empire continued to increase investment in Suzhou. At present, the Jingdong Empire in Suzhou has established a perfect e-commerce and logistics system, at the same time, around the "cloud computing + big data" Xiangcheng Jingdong Zhigu project has also been launched. Jingdong Empire's funds, also invested in a number of Suzhou start-ups, especially in the field of e-commerce, big data, strong support for innovation and entrepreneurship in Suzhou. Third, Suqian: the destination of Suzhou's industrial transfer In the same period, under the promotion of Suzhou ***, Suzhou businessmen also actively invested in Suqian. At the end of 06, under the leadership of Suzhou Park, the Su Su Industrial Park with a planning area of 13.6 square kilometers was launched, and was upgraded to a provincial development zone in 12 years. By the end of 17, Su Su Industrial Park settled 181 enterprises of all kinds, with a total investment of 38.4 billion yuan, creating 13% of Suqian's industrial added value and 22% of the corporate income tax for many years in a row to win the laurels of the North and South *** build the park. At the end of 07, Suqian Suzhou Chamber of Commerce was established. By the end of 18, a number of listed companies in Suzhou are located in Suqian (consolidated enterprises), mainly in electronic information, clothing, chemical fiber and so on. Among them, Jiangsu Guotai focuses on garments and supply chain, with nearly 30 locations in Suqian city. Meanwhile, major financial institutions in Suzhou, such as Bank of Suzhou, Changshu Bank and Dongwu Life, have also y laid out in Suqian. Take the soon-to-be-listed Bank of Suzhou as an example, as of the end of 18, the Bank of Suzhou's loan balance in Suqian was RMB 9.455 billion, which is ranked No. 2 after Suzhou among the 13 prefectural-level cities in the province. As the two most economically developed and least economically developed cities in Jiangsu, the connection and cooperation between Suqian and Suqian was, is, and will surely be deepened and developed in a sustained way in the future.
