Hundred years after its opening port, the population has continued to rise in the state. Population growth has brought prosperity to the city, but at the same time, the excessive expansion of the population has also brought a lot of negative impact. After 1949 , with the ideology, social change in governance structure, the large population of Shanghai and the positioning of the city appeared contradictory.
