Who is Huang?

Yellow is the prototype of Grandpa Cormorant on the back of 20 yuan paper money. He is 93 years old, and his grandfather is a cormorant on the Lijiang River and a celebrity in Guilin. The fifth set of patterns on the back of RMB 20 yuan is the image of an old man fishing in beautiful Guilin and Lijiang River. The classic image of grandpa is a fishing boat with a long pole, surrounded by several cormorants, so he is also called Grandpa Huang.

The landscape pattern on the back of RMB 20 refers to the scenery near the ancient town of Xingping in Yangshuo, and the landing place of the dock is the best angle to appreciate the scenery of the same RMB. Many tourists often gather here to take photos with their children and an old fisherman. This old fisherman is Grandpa Cormorant. It is reported that he died on February 14, 2020, and there was a hot discussion about "owing grandpa a photo" on the Internet.
