China is a multi-ethnic, multi-language country. Different national languages and local dialects form a colorful language culture, and at the same time, bring about difficulties and obstacles in exchanging language inevitably. Minority areas in the nation limited by the language environment, lead to the slow process of Chinese Language socialization, Chinese still can not reach the level of the objective requirements of mainstream society, which brought some difficulties for the realization of the exchange and integration between peoples, and hindered the development the Ethnic region. Currently, improving the level of Chinese in minority areas and achieving Chinese Language socialization are the basic requirements for realizing the regional development, as well as the inevitable trend for deepening globalization and modernity.As the tool of modernity, mobile phone is increasingly becoming the favorite tool for youth, who inhabited in xijiang, to exchange and communicate with each other. In this paper, I combined the quantitative and qualitative research methods, and surveyed the local youth who use mobile phones and messages by questionnaire-specific distribution and one to one interviews. Based on the current situation about the local youth groups'using of mobile phone text messages, and the traditional local language condition and mobile phone communication, I analyzed the SMS texts'function in acquiring Chinese characters, words, phrases and contexts, and interpreted the process through which they bring Chinese context into daily life, and ultimately, described the important role in Chinese language socialization.The widespread use of modern communication tools provide an unprecedented opportunity in promoting Chinese language socialization, it penetrated into the daily life in minority areas and divided minority language conditions. Language socialization is achieving at an amazing rate. It plays an extremely important role for promoting fusion of national languages and national cultural exchange and integration, as well as the national economic and social development. However, the resulting problem just as the digestion and replacement of the functions of minority languages, the cultural hegemony, identity and conflict, and the protection of linguistic diversity become the new problems and challenges. What's more, it provides a new perspective to understand the "Unity of the Chinese pattern" of prof. Fei.
