It has been a week since the natural phenomenon occurred in Haiqing Province.

In this week, Liu Xiahui's fans of scarf have soared from tens of thousands to more than ten million, becoming one of the celebrities with the most fans of scarf, which made those big stars envious.

The growth rate of this fan has also created a record of the increase in fans of the scarf.

In a few days, fans soared by more than 10 million. If it were a big star or grassroots, it would definitely attract a lot of gossip and jealousy.

But this happened to Liu Xiahui, but there was only envy but no one was jealous.

There are two main reasons for saying this:

The first is Liu Xiahui's identity. He is neither a big star who becomes famous in grassroots or a big star who relies on his fans to make a living, but a very successful entrepreneur. An entrepreneur like Mr. Ma, even if he has 100 million or even one billion fans on the scarf, who would be jealous of him?

The second is the reason for the surge in fans this time, which is a natural phenomenon that broke out in Haiqing Province, and the efforts made by Liu Xiahui have saved many compatriots from the disaster.

At the same time, after the natural disaster broke out, he paid and worked hard to support his compatriots in the disaster area. As long as people with normal values ​​are not able to envy such entrepreneurs with social responsibility.

As a great contributor to the natural disaster in Haiqing Province, Liu Xiahui not only gained tens of millions of fans in Weiwang, but also had a very big gain, which is that the sales of catering companies under the Liu Family Group increased significantly.

Especially Lao Liu Fast Food, which fought against the two Western fast food giants, Lao Ken and Lao Mai, has benefited the most. In just one week, its turnover has nearly doubled, which is simply an unexpected surprise.

Although this data seems exaggerated, thinking about the Wenchuan natural disaster in 2008, Wanglaoji's 100 million donation made the sales of this herbal tea drink soar. What Liu Xiahui is doing now is ten times better than Wanglaoji at the time, and it is expected that its business benefits will benefit.

In other words, in 2008, Liu Xiahui was too low-key and what he did was almost unfair to the public. Otherwise, the Liu family group would have soared into the sky two years ago.

As Lao Liu fast food's turnover soared, its market share naturally grew rapidly, which made Lao Ken Lao Mai's president in Greater China anxious and helpless. Although Lao Ken Lao Mai also donated a little money symbolically during this natural disaster, how could the little money he donated be as powerful as Liu Xiahui who was doing his best to consider the victims?

Therefore, after this incident, Lao Liu Fast Food officially surpassed Lao Ken Lao Mai and became the supreme overlord of the fast food market.

Although there is still a long way to go to defeat Lao Ken and Lao Mai, the strong rise of Lao Liu Fast Food marks that Chinese fast food is no longer allowed to be kneaded by Western fast food as before.

In the history of mobile phone development, countless classic masterpieces have been born.

The earliest epoch-making mobile phone was Motorola DynaTAC 8000X, which is the most classic "big brother" and is the world's first commercial mobile phone launched by Motorola.

Speaking of Motorola, many young people in later generations may not have heard of it. However, in the history of mobile phone development, Motorola is definitely qualified to be called the first generation of mobile phone overlords.

This big brother has a standby time of about 10 hours, can talk continuously for 30 minutes, and can store information from 30 contacts. Many people who "get rich first" have used big brothers.

In Hong Kong films in the 1980s and 1990s, Big Brother was the standard for big guys. At that time, this Motorola DynaTAC 8000X Big Brother was priced at US$3,995 (approximately RMB 24,300).

Next comes Motorola StarTAC, which has the title of the first flip mobile phone, and has achieved great success, with a total sales of 60 million units.

StarTAC supports SMS function and vibration function, and has a very compact appearance design at the time. Many people even regard StarTAC as the originator of the later Motorola Razr series models.

Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, it is at least consistent in the design spirit.

Then there is Nokia 3310.

Nokia, I believe anyone who has used mobile phones knows its name, which is an awesome brand that has maintained the championship in mobile phone sales for 14 consecutive years.

This Nokia 3310 has supreme status in the minds of fans. As an epoch-making model, the Nokia 3310 has sold a total of 126 million units, which is a milestone product.

3310 also has a monochrome display and supports access to the network, which was a very leading feature at the time. Most importantly, the classic snake game among the classics also appeared since 3310.

Next is the Sony Ericsson T68i, which is the first mobile phone with a color display, and has built-in Bluetooth function, supports browsing and customizable ringtone functions.

Although the T68i itself does not have a camera, it can still take photos through external cameras, which was absolutely amazing at the time.

In addition, there are many classic works in the era of keyboard and mobile phones, so I will not mention them one by one here.

After mobile phones enter the smart era, the famous Apple is a mountain that can never be avoided.

On January 9, 2007, Gangmaster Qiao personally released the first generation of Apple's iPhone.

That day is the day when smartphone history is about to be rewrite.

Although this phone has many imperfections, it is this mobile phone that has been "five years ahead of the world" that tells people that mobile phones can still be like this, so a transformation of smartphones began...

It is June 2010. It has been more than three years since the birth of the first generation of Apple phones. After three generations of Apple phones, it has finally ushered in the fourth generation, which is at its peak.

After seeing the official release of Apple 4 on June 8, Liu Xiahui understood in his heart that the era of smartphones has truly arrived.

Liu Xiahui never used Apple in his previous life. In the era of smartphones, he only used Huawei, but his wife Tang Xiaomin was a fan of the early days, and he chased from Fruit 4 to Fruit 6. Later, under the influence of Liu Xiahui, he abandoned Apple and started using Huawei.

The sensation caused by this phone really exceeded everyone's expectations, and the craziest incident was the 17-year-old high school student who cut his kidneys and bought Apple 4. In martial arts terms, this guy was completely obsessed with it.

When Liu Xiahui saw this sensational news in his previous life, he couldn't believe his eyes. Although he finally bought Apple 4 and fulfilled his wish, he also paid attention to him for the rest of his life.

Even if you get more than 1.4 million yuan in compensation later, what's the point?

Of course, there is never a shortage of smart people or fools in the world, and there is nothing to discuss about this kind of individual example.

However, from this incident, it can also highlight the awesomeness of Apple 4.

At that time, there were so many things that were incomprehensible to happen for the sake of Apple phones. Even Liu Xiahui bought the Apple 4S for his wife, and was snatched by someone while calling him in broad daylight (I feel heartbroken when I think of it. In 12 years, I spent thousands of Apple 4S for his wife, but it was snatched away soon). They were all crazy!

The first batch of Apple 4 was listed in 88 countries around the world, but our country was not among them. This is not because Apple does not pay attention to our huge market. On the contrary, it is precisely because it attaches too much importance to the beginning of the game. In order to achieve a good start, Apple adopted the very famous "hunger marketing" and deliberately compressed production, resulting in a scene of best-selling products.

Until next year, if you are an ordinary person with no "relationship", it will be difficult to buy a trendy Apple 4 phone immediately - Apple direct stores no longer sell Apple 4 phones directly, and the newly opened online store will soon show that "no supply yet". Even if you purchase the "contract version" of packing phone bills, the staff of China Unicom and Suning Appliances will politely tell you that you need to wait.

Then, you only have two options, either buy at a higher price from the "scalper", or buy at a parallel product at the same price. A smartphone has caused a sudden whirlwind of fashion sales, and out of stock has become synonymous with it.

This can encourage people to buy, maintain market popularity, stabilize sales prices, and ensure profits.

On the other hand, it can also reduce inventory pressure.

Apple has captured customers' desire to buy, but can't buy it, which has led more consumers to pay attention to Apple 4 mobile phones, making Apple 4 mobile phones so popular in my country.

With Liu Xiahui's current wealth, even though Apple 4 has just been launched and there is no need to buy it in China, it is naturally not difficult for him to buy ten or eight Apple 4s.

Therefore, on the day Apple 4 was launched, Liu Xiahui asked someone to buy a full ten units for gifts to his relatives.

Although Liu Xiahui really wants to support domestic mobile phones, it is undeniable that there is really no mobile phone that can compare with Apple 4 at the moment, and he will not refuse to use Apple in order to support domestic products.

Not to mention anything else, even Mr. Ren from Huawei is using Apple phones!

Dragon Boat Festival is one of the four traditional festivals in my country.

The official Dragon Boat Festival is the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. Most places in the country celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival on this day, but the Liu family in Qinghe Village is an exception. The Dragon Boat Festival in Qinghe Village is on the fourth day of the fifth lunar month.

Qinghe Village is mainly based on the Liu surname, and there are other surnames such as Jiang surname. As a result, the villagers celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival differently, which is indeed rare in the country.

The reason for this situation is that it is said that when Qinghe Village was "troubled" in the past, the ancestors of the Liu family celebrated the Dragon Boat Festival one day in advance and ran away in order to hide from the thief.

From then on, in order to remember that special day, the Liu family ancestors celebrated the Dragon Boat Festival one day in advance every year, and gradually formed the custom of celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival on the fourth day of the fifth month of the Liu family in Qinghe Village.

On the Dragon Boat Festival, there is one essential thing, that is, Zongzi.

When it comes to zongzi, the sweet party and the salt party have something to say.

Sweet parties say that zongzi must be sweet and soft, which is the right way to the festival. Salty parties say that egg yolk ham pork belly is much richer than your jujube.

In the past, it was the world of sweet rice dumplings.

It was once called "the food of immortals". In historical materials, sweet rice dumplings were first seen in the Northern Wei Dynasty. In "Food Swords", it is recorded that "used sour rice powder, silk, water, honey and honey... with dates and chestnut meat, all over..."

The rice dumplings at this time are sweet, and it is obvious that they are made of honey and dates together.

In the Tang Dynasty, sweet rice dumplings were even more good in the palace and had a very high status. There was a dish at the Tang Dynasty's tail-burning banquet (a banquet dedicated to the Emperor of Tang): "Give Feihan Xiang Zong", which was drizzled with honey when eaten.

In various historical materials of the Song Dynasty, red dates, dried persimmons, walnut kernels, and red beans can be used in rice dumplings... Su Dongpo wrote: "I got bayberry in rice dumplings at the time." There are bayberry in rice dumplings, which are sweet and sour.

Therefore, sweet rice dumplings have always occupied the supreme position of the Dragon Boat Festival.

Until the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the great gourmet Yuan Mei made the delicious food of salted rice dumplings publicly available to the world.

"Yangzhou ham dumplings, take the top of the glutinous rice, pick the perfect ones that grow white, remove half of the scattered pieces, and wash them very well. Wrap them with big bamboo leaves, put a piece of ham in it, seal the pot and simmer for a day and night, keep the firewood ingredients, eat smooth and gentle, and the meat is melted."

Since then, salty rice dumplings have been far ahead, and with varying fillings and rich imagination, they have left the single sweet rice dumplings far behind.

Big data from later generations verified this phenomenon. Previous surveys by central media showed that the salty party was about 3% more than the sweet party. Later, in the statistics of e-commerce platforms, the purchase ratio of sweet rice dumplings and salty rice dumplings was 4:6.

The famous salted rice dumplings is really great. In Jiaxing, Zhejiang Province, the hometown of Zongzi, there is a saying in "China on the Bite of the Tongue" that describes it, "A day when people in Jiaxing are at ease starts with a hot meat dumpling."

Jiaxing meat dumplings are marinated with soy sauce and rice wine in a cooking method, covered with glutinous rice, and wrapped with zongzi. During the steaming process, the fat and seasonings of the pork enter the glutinous rice, just like lard bibimbap, smooth, salty and fragrant.

In the southern Fujian region, there is a kind of roasted pork dumplings. The rice dumplings and glutinous rice is first fried in marinade and wrapped in pork, chicken, mushrooms, squid, shrimps, and oysters. After cooking, it is hot and dipped in peanut butter and spicy sauce, which is extremely delicious.

If there is a dispute over salty and sweetness in other places, then in Guangdong Province, where everything can be dumped, there is no need to waste words on the topic of salty and sweetness.

As long as you want to eat rice dumplings, there are so many styles that you can dazzle.

There are basic alkaline water rice dumplings in Guangdong Province. You can dip them in white sugar and honey, and the white sugar is melted in glutinous rice. It is soft and sweet, and the taste is not inferior to the cold rice dumplings in Chang'an.

There are also upgraded versions of rice dumplings, which run on the ground, fly in the sky, and swim in the water. They can be filled with rice dumplings. mung beans, pork, mushrooms, shrimps, dried scallops, squid, chestnuts, taro, char siu, ribs, corn, chicken, horse's hooves...

If you don’t know whether to eat sweet or salty, Chaoshan has “double cooking rice dumplings”, half sweet and half salty, red bean paste, mung bean paste, lotus paste sand has a sweet and soft texture, pork, salted eggs and chestnuts are a salty enjoyment, and then it is perfectly combined with glutinous rice.

There are also Daojiao rice dumplings in Guancheng, the salted egg yolks and pork are salty, but with oil, salt, sugar and mung beans, the salty taste is laid out and the salty tastes sweet.

It can be said that the sweet and salty battle over the past thousand years has ended in the imagination of people in Guangdong Province.

In the zongzi world, there is another place where zongzi is worth mentioning, that is, the big zongzi in Anguang County, Guizhou Province. This is one of the main foods for people in Anguang County, Guizhou Province to celebrate the Spring Festival. Anguang County has the saying that "no zongzi can't become an adult."

This large rice dumpling in Anguang County is really big. A large rice dumpling weighs several pounds. It is famous in Guizhou Province for its large body, plump color, and delicious flavor. It has won the gold medal in Southeast Asia International Tourism and Food Festival for two consecutive years. It is the most famous traditional snack in Guizhou Province.

However, Liu Xiahui ate all the rice dumplings in the world and felt that the rice dumplings in his hometown Qinghe Village were the most delicious.

Qinghe Village’s rice dumplings have two main advantages. The first advantage is that they have a soft and glutinous texture. They are the kind of delicious food that is satisfying before eating glutinous rice.

The second advantage is the filling inside. Originally, this filling was not special, which is just ordinary pork belly.

However, because the pork belly is marinated enough, and the people of Qinghe Village will also collect a local leaf with a unique fragrance to wrap pork belly. When eating, the scent of glutinous rice, pork belly and leaves are combined, which will definitely make people miss it.

Since his rebirth, Liu Xiahui has attached great importance to traditional festivals in our country. As the Dragon Boat Festival is coming, after receiving the Apple 4 mobile phone I asked to buy, he took his wife and children to his hometown to celebrate the festival with his parents and sisters.

Before boarding the private plane, Liu Xiahui gave the Apple 4 phones he had to his relatives one by one...
