To the north and south, to get rich, go to Guangdong.
This was a very famous saying in the 1990s.
Guangdong has many famous things, whether in TV dramas or other dramas.
Rarely do they film Guangdong's wealthy or big bosses.
Because the rich here are famously low-key.
Flip-flops and a white tank top, with a pair of boxer shorts.
You wouldn't believe it, but this is the standard outfit for a Guangdong big shot.
As for places Guangdong folks like to eat, even GPS would have trouble finding them.
They're often hidden deep in the mountains, and people here love their tea.
Guangdong's prosperity is renowned, as are its factory workers.
All sorts of electronics factories, apparel factories, each employing thousands.
Perhaps here lies the most familiar of stories.
Chen Pingsheng came to Guangdong, not for work this time, but purely because his brother had found a girlfriend he was planning to marry.
She wasn't very old, nor particularly beautiful.
