Yikoulan restaurant

In ancient China, there were many famous businessmen. After becoming famous, the God of Wealth retired and went boating in the West Lake. Rich as an enemy, there are many legends that helped Zhu Yuanzhang build a cornucopia of Shen Wansan in Jinling City. And Hu Xueyan, a red top businessman who was a smash hit and fought wits with foreigners. No matter how much wealth they have and what kind of social status they have had. But compared with this businessman, there is no legend of him. He not only married a foreign princess as a concubine, but also a patriotic and moral national businessman.

At the end of the Qing dynasty, the Qing dynasty was ignorant and lost people's hearts. Not only are the forces of various countries eyeing up, but the country is also in chaos. In this complex social environment, it can be said that the situation is changeable, flickering, various ideas collide fiercely, the people are numb and the court is incompetent. In this period of great change, a number of talents have emerged. The so-called troubled times produce talents, which is the truth. Among them, Chen Fang, born in Zhuhai, created a legend. As a teenager, Chen Fang was heroic and heroic. Like other scholars, he dreamed of becoming the top scholar one day and paid tribute to his ancestors. But in the face of cruel reality, he ended in failure. After the failure, Chen Fang was very depressed and decided to go outside. The first stop he chose was Macau.

As a young man who ran out of his study, when he first saw the steel boat smoking, he became interested in it. He told his uncle that he really wanted to find a job on a foreigner's boat one day. Staring at Chen Fang for a long time, my uncle, who had lived in Macao for a long time, told him seriously that it was absolutely impossible to do things on the boat without fluent English. For a private school boy who is familiar with the four books and five classics, English is simply a fantasy for him. But for his dream, he resolutely chose to learn English. With a flexible brain and persistent spirit, he quickly mastered this international language. This laid a solid language foundation for his future international business.

At the age of 24, Chen Fang and her uncle crossed the ocean and came to Hawaii. In today's Honolulu area, Chen Fang started his business career. Like others, he started as an apprentice. At that time, my uncle had returned to China by road, but with a dream, he resolutely decided to stay, unless he could not get along here, he would never return to China again.

After accumulating a certain amount of capital through her own efforts and struggles, Chen Fang started her own entrepreneurial road. Due to the cultural differences between the north and the south of the United States at that time, there was an irreconcilable contradiction about whether slavery still existed, and finally the famous Civil War broke out in American history. In the eyes of ordinary people, this is a disaster, and everyone who can escape has already escaped. However, Chen Fang, who has a high business talent, saw the opportunity. As a sugar supplier, he made a lot of money by using Hawaii's rich sugar cane resources and the sharp increase in sugar supply during the war. He broke a record and became the first overseas Chinese millionaire. The commercial prince became famous for a time, and was crowned with various titles by the industry, which also brought him rolling business.

At that time, the status of overseas Chinese in the United States was very low. They either work as miners or build railways. In the eyes of American upper class, China people are pigs. Chen Fang, who was a scholar in the Qing Dynasty, was elegant and low-key. Because he is proficient in English and has the status of the richest man overseas, everyone recommends him as the president of the Chamber of Commerce. Chen Fang, who has a great political vision, spared no expense to hold a grand wedding dance for the king of Hawaii to improve the political status of Chinese in the United States. From then on, he entered the upper class in that area. Not only that, he won the heart of Hawaiian princess Julia with his handsome appearance, eloquent eloquence and amazing social status. The princess is not jealous of Chen Fang's wife, and is willing to marry the overseas Chinese businessman as a concubine. This incident caused a tsunami-like discussion in the overseas Chinese community at that time. This is the glory of our country and the pride of China people.

Crushed in modern times.

Not only that, Chen Fang is a gentleman with patriotic feelings and national integrity. Once he passed a hotel and saw a sign hanging outside the hotel, which said in extremely derogatory language, "Chinese and dogs are not allowed in." Angry Chen Fang didn't kick the sign like Bruce Lee, injured the doorman, and then ran away. His approach is to directly find the owner of this hotel and buy it at a high price. The brand that made Chinese people extremely ashamed was taken away aboveboard, and the name of the hotel was changed to a calligraphy plaque with China color. Not only that, he is also a philanthropist.
