Most overseas Chinese in Vietnam come from Guangdong and Fujian, and most of them come from Zhao Guang and Chaozhou.
Under the reform and opening-up policy of Viet Nam, China's economy has developed rapidly. But it is basically limited to catering, food processing, tourism, footwear, textile, metalworking, construction, finance, banking and other service industries and light industry.
There are 1 10,000 Chinese in Vietnam, mainly Cantonese, chaozhou people and Fujian, mainly distributed in the south, with 500,000 in Ho Chi Minh City, which is mainly distributed in the fifth and eleventh counties. The fifth county has the largest population, which should be 200,000 to 300,000, and the eleventh county has the highest proportion, exceeding 50%, exceeding100,000 people. In the past, China people lived a miserable life, but Vietnam did not recognize them as Vietnamese, but they were. There are indeed many Chinese who have lived in Vietnam for a long time but have not acquired Vietnamese nationality (because I saw that the Vietnamese government recently allowed Chinese who have not acquired Vietnamese nationality to apply for Vietnamese nationality. Maybe these people went to China or abroad from the Vietnam Liberated Area, and now they are back in Vietnam. Chinese can't enter government agencies, news media culture and other fields, can't join the army, and are excluded from universities by many unequal conditions. For example, children of soldiers can get extra points, children of public servants can get extra points, and families of martyrs can get extra points ... China people only live in their own circles. China's traditional culture is better preserved among Vietnamese Chinese than that of China. There are many ancestral halls and halls in the Chinese circle, such as Sui City Hall, which has a history of hundreds of years. These non-governmental organizations are rich and often do some charity. Vietnam's economic opening has given China people room to play. China people are better at doing business than Vietnamese people. In the past, Vietnamese couldn't do business, but they all learned from China. So China people have become rich again. With the improvement of their economic status, their social status has gradually improved. This year, Viet Nam's CCTV broadcast a literary evening hosted by China people. This year, Chinese have also started to run for deputies to grass-roots people's congresses (that is, our deputies to people's congresses), which shows that the Vietnamese government's policy towards Chinese is slowly loosening.
In the past, although China people had low social status, they all looked down on the Vietnamese and refused to marry them. Whoever marries a Vietnamese will be abandoned by the whole family. If China people and Vietnamese people fall in love, it will be a very painful thing. There is one thing I still can't figure out. I have met countless Vietnamese Chinese, but I have never seen beautiful women. Vietnam has a high proportion of beautiful women. I think it's higher than in China, and there are fewer handsome guys in Vietnam. As long as you see a beautiful woman, you can be sure that this person is not from China. However, there are still some handsome China people. As the saying goes, there is no ugliness in youth, but why can't I find a beautiful woman among China girls around the age of 20? I really haven't seen it. Have any friends seen it? I think the reason may be related to their non-intermarriage, because the blood relationship is relatively close, and it is necessary to intermarry with foreigners to optimize the race. I think Vietnamese married ethnic minorities in Vietnam and gave birth to many beautiful children.
The mother tongue of most Vietnamese Chinese is not Vietnamese, but Cantonese, Chaozhou dialect and Minnan dialect, mainly Cantonese. Vietnamese is just a growing environmental language, and most people can't speak Mandarin. Because of the opening-up, many Taiwan-funded enterprises and Viet Nam have re-established friendly relations with China, and they can get high salaries if they know Chinese. I see that many people in China are rare and don't pretend to understand. No matter what you say, they don't understand and will never ask. Many of them learn a few words of Chinese by doing after entering Taiwan-funded Chinese-funded enterprises. They don't cherish employment opportunities, because the rapid development of Taiwan-funded and Chinese-funded enterprises makes it easy for them to find jobs and jump ship at will. Moreover, when they treat China people, they will never think that we are "one of our own". Many people who have just arrived in Viet Nam are strangers. When they meet China people, they seem to have found an organization. However, China people don't really help you, and sometimes Vietnamese people do. China people are very honest. They will do whatever is beneficial and cash it immediately. If he helps you and doesn't get a reward immediately, he will forgive you next time.
