1992, the State Language Committee officially adjusted the policy of promoting Putonghua in the new period to "vigorously promote, actively popularize and gradually improve".
1994, provides a more scientific and operable quantitative means and measurement standard for Putonghua proficiency. Putonghua proficiency requirements were put forward for teachers, radio and television announcers, program hosts and other professionals and graduates from normal universities, and Putonghua proficiency tests were carried out. These measures show that the promotion of Putonghua has reached a new level.
Speak Mandarin and write standard words.
Language is the most important communication tool and information carrier. In the historical process of Socialism with Chinese characteristics's modernization, vigorously promoting and actively popularizing Putonghua, which is commonly used throughout the country, is conducive to eliminating language barriers and promoting social exchanges, and is of great significance to socialist economic, political, cultural construction and social development.
In modern society, speaking Mandarin is a symbol of culture and civilization. For example, Qingdao and Jinan used to be dialect areas. Nowadays, except for some old people, few people speak Shandong dialect. Watching the news program of Shandong Satellite TV, no matter who the reporter interviews in the street, everyone speaks Mandarin. Proud and avant-garde in speaking Mandarin has become the knowledge of literate people. Even rural primary schools have fully implemented Putonghua teaching. There are no migrant workers from rural Shandong who can't speak Mandarin. People who can't speak Mandarin will be considered old-fashioned, which is the mentality of people in developed areas.
But cities like Shanghai and Tianjin are still very backward. They have a clear concept of locals and foreigners, and they are proud of Shanghainese, while foreigners are old-fashioned. When someone says a word, listen to the accent first. It was said by the locals, but it would be wrong to think about it again. Don't listen to what outsiders say. I discriminate against foreigners. Isn't it necessary to be regarded as a foreigner to speak Mandarin? Speaking the local dialect is the first timid ending.
It is true that people who speak dialects are old-fashioned People who speak Tianjin dialect are native, while people who speak Shanghai dialect are native. They have been in Shanghai all their lives, and many people have never even taken a train. They don't know what the country has become, which is better than Shanghai. Fortunately, with Pudong now, Shanghainese don't want to take the train. The modern Pudong next to it has shown how backward Shanghai is. Now people say that Shanghai is developed, but they are actually talking about Pudong, a foreigner in Shanghai's mind. The real old Shanghai really has nothing to boast about. Frogs in the well, Shanghainese and Tianjin people all taste the same.
Without the construction of Pudong, Shanghainese will never know the taste of overpass, wide road and ring road. Shanghainese don't know how to wander, no one has a tourist tent, no one has played with 125CC motorcycles, and they don't know what it's like to drive a four-wheel drive military jeep. If you say that there are few bicycles in Qingdao, Shanghainese who ride bicycles every day will not believe you. All this is related to the persistence of Shanghainese and Tianjin people in dialects.
People who speak Mandarin are civilized. They can accept new things and discard old things. People who speak dialects are backward and uneducated. They are far away from modern civilization, incompatible with new things, have disadvantages at home and enjoy their daughter alone. If you can't even accept Mandarin, what else can you accept?
According to the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on National Common Language, Putonghua is the national common language. Putonghua takes Beijing dialect as the standard pronunciation, northern dialect as the basic dialect, and typical modern vernacular as the grammatical norm.
With the reform and opening up and the development of socialist market economy, the demand for popularizing Putonghua is increasingly urgent. Popularizing Putonghua and creating a good language environment are conducive to promoting personnel exchanges and commodity circulation and cultivating a unified big market.
China is a multi-ethnic, multi-lingual and multi-dialect Mandarin, that is, modern standard Chinese, also known as Mandarin and Mandarin, which refers to the * * * common language of Chinese in Chinese mainland, Hongkong, Macau, Taiwan Province Province and overseas, and is the * * * common oral and written communication language of modern Chinese.

Popularizing Putonghua is conducive to promoting exchanges among all ethnic groups and regions, safeguarding national unity and enhancing the cohesion of the Chinese nation.
Language and writing ability is the basic content of cultural quality, and promoting Putonghua is an important content of quality education. Popularizing Putonghua is conducive to implementing the educational strategic policy of facing modernization, the world and the future, carrying forward the excellent traditional culture and patriotism of the motherland, and improving the scientific and cultural quality of the whole nation.
The level of information technology is one of the symbols to measure the level of science and technology in a country. Standardization of language and characters is the premise of improving the level of Chinese information processing. Popularizing Putonghua and implementing the scheme of Chinese Pinyin are conducive to promoting the development and application of Chinese information processing technology.
