   in the Nrotheast they speak Mandarin, in Shenzhen they speak Guangdong hua I thought, most places people will speak Mandarin b/c that is what they learn in school, but there are 100’s of thousands of dialects

   Mandarin is the official state language of the entire country. Most provinces have one or more local dialects that are spoken as well, but Mandarin is still the official language and is spoken throughout the country. The biggest difference is the accent and slang that is used when speaking Mandarin, which can vary largely due to the regions other dialects.

   Everywhere is the answer. Cantonese is only very southern (the old Canton) but learning mandarin is compulsory there now so everyone can communicate in mandarin.
