Depending on the research method of literature review, in terms of comparison Chinese urbanization evolution with the general experience of urbanization in western countries, it could be shown that urbanization is driven by government instead of market. In this way, it is obviously to see that it is necessary to do the academic research of urbanization and urban morphology from the academic field of public management. Moreover, this paper also identify the idea for simultaneous evolution of rural urbanization and suburbanization via the identification of concept for urban-country interlaced area & country-side.

Huishan new town held the faster pace of rural urbanization and suburbanization in recent years. As a significant example of rural urbanization, it is essential to describe the government-driven process and shortcomings of this kind of rural urbanization model and reveal the chaos of this area as well. The purpose of this mapping is to expose the secret worry behind these phenomena. This research sharply showed the fault made by government in order to give birth to the government-society interaction mode which could correct the unreasonable urban planning idea and strategy made by government only.
