Fujian has always been a strange place in my mind. Fujian was called Bamin in ancient times. In ancient times, there were aborigines called Baiyue people in ancient books, and they were also a nation that ate snakes and had their own magical and wild lifestyle. Subsequently, the Han people in the Jin, Tang and Song dynasties moved into this sinister landscape and merged with the local aborigines, gradually forming a unique Fujian people.
It seems that most Fujian men are not good at rhetoric, and they are almost all thumbs when it comes to Fujian-flavored Mandarin. But if it is a conversation between fellow villagers, it is as fast as a machine gun and hits the floor. I have a college classmate from Fujian. From him, we can see a lot of Fujian people's personalities. Not many words, occasionally surprising words, making people laugh. Talk less and do more, but don't make public. The surface is cold, the expression is indifferent, and the key moment is silent, showing a kind of loyalty. Pay attention to friendship and dignity, be violated and insulted, stand up and solve it by force. All this seems to reveal an unyielding indigenous style.
Fujian men always seem to hide, and there is no consistent statement. What's more, you can also hear different opinions of different people on Fujian men. For example, if you say "Fujian people", someone will immediately make a fuss about the word Fujian. What is a "worm in the door"? But you will soon find that all the Fujian men in your impression can wander the rivers and lakes, so that in Europe, nine out of ten China people there went to Fujian. You have to say that Fujian people are short and look weak, but in fact, Fujian has always produced sports stars, such as Ni, who once broke the world record of men's high jump with 2.29 meters. Chen Yanping is also from Fujian. If it weren't for the super wind speed at the 1 1 Asian Games, his triple jump would reach17.50m, which would be a new Asian record. Cai Huanzong, a gymnastics genius who dominated China, was almost synonymous with men's gymnastics in China at that time. Tang, the uncrowned king of badminton in the world, Guo Yuehua, the world table tennis champion, and Fujian's sports elites are numerous. Chen Zhonghe, the coach who led the women's volleyball team to win the world championship 20 years later, is also from Fujian. Fujian men are generally low-key and not good at showing off. However, in the past two years, Fujian men have made a big news-Yuan Hua case, which gives people the impression that Fujian men are all related to smuggling. This is of course a misunderstanding.
The number of Fujian men in Shenzhen is not small, of course, compared with those who go overseas, some of them are dwarfed. Most Fujian men who travel to Shenzhen for the first time know the Overseas Chinese Building (also called Overseas Chinese Travel Agency) near Shenzhen Railway Station, which is also an old hotel in Shenzhen. Not too luxurious, but the business has been booming, because at the beginning of the reform and opening up, Fujian Jinjiang and Shishi businessmen who went to Shenzhen to work hard and start businesses liked to stay there. As long as you live there, you will be in a trance and think you are in southern Fujian. Upstairs and downstairs, there are more guests in restaurants and bars who speak Minnan than Cantonese, and even the dishes cooked by chefs are authentic Minnan flavor. However, perhaps because the market in Shenzhen has become more and more mature, it seems that Fujian men are rarely seen in business now, but the teahouses in Shenzhen are called "Anxi Teahouses" everywhere, and almost all of them are opened by Fujian people. Fujian has been a famous tea town since ancient times, rich in oolong tea, of which the most precious and famous is the rock tea "Dahongpao" produced in Wuyishan, and the other is "Tieguanyin" produced in Anxi, Quanzhou. Fujian men are naturally cheerful and optimistic, which is the kind of temperament that can be covered when the sky falls. Therefore, what Fujian men like best is to meet three or five friends, sit in the teahouse for half a day or even a whole day, do nothing and enjoy leisure time. It seems that this nature is difficult to be associated with the phenomenon of "smuggling", but in fact, it was Fujian men who first crossed the ocean to work and earn money to support their families. For example, in Changle City, in addition to farmland, the largest number of detached villas are villa-style design, and most of these "luxury houses" are built by Changle people who work hard to send money home. It is said that overseas immigrants send back as much as 500 million dollars to their hometown in Fujian every year, which is an important source of foreign exchange in Fujian.
It's just that Fujian men who specialize in tea and tea restaurants in Shenzhen seem very inconspicuous. In fact, this is the cleverness of Fujian men. Let's take a look at well-known enterprises in Fujian, such as Hengan, Seven Wolves, Anta, Fu Guibo, Guiren Bird, Qipai and Pinpai. They don't do much, but the wealth of Fujian people can be comparable to that of Beijingers. For example, the annual advertising revenue of CCTV 5 is about 500 million RMB, of which 300 million RMB is contributed by Jinjiang, a county-level city in Fujian. Recently, the upsurge of brand image spokesmen has made Jinjiang enterprises invite all the major sports stars in the country! This shows the wealth of Fujian people. In fact, although the retail sales of private businessmen who put up the signboard of "Anxi Tea House" are not high every day, some even have only a few hundred yuan. In fact, tea is a high-margin commodity, and the retail gross profit margin can reach 100% (that is, 1 yuan can be sold in 2 yuan). Therefore, in fact, Fujian men have quietly monopolized a high-profit industry in Shenzhen.
