In 1925, Mr. Luo Huanchang was born into a poor peasant family on the banks of the Ningjiang River. He lost his mother when he was seven years old and worked with his father as a farmer and fan maker. Although the family was poor, his father insisted on saving money to let his son enter school. Under the guidance of the gardener, Mr. Luo Huanchang studied diligently and excelled in his grades. He graduated from elementary school at the age of 12, and was admitted to the first secondary school in Xingning, Meizhou, because his family was so poor that he couldn't afford to leave the house, and the plight of his family was so acute that he dropped out of secondary school after only one year, and went out to work as a laborer.
A year before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the young Mr. Luo Huanchang went to work in his uncle's Jingguo store in the county in order to share the family's survival difficulties. He worked diligently and conscientiously, and became his uncle's right-hand man by being modest and studious, diligent, sincere, and attentive to others. After eight years of business travel, he is familiar with and mastered the basic rules of business, and accumulated a certain amount of experience in business. From then on, he was ambitious and set up his own business. After the end of the Anti-Japanese War and the outbreak of the civil war, he was about to spread his wings and take off, but by the turbulent times, inflation, currency devaluation, small and medium-sized enterprises have to close down, business is difficult to maintain.
In order to make a living, he said goodbye to his native land and set up his own business in Hong Kong in 1949. Luo Huanchang's teenage years were spent in the midst of the warlords' war and the anti-Japanese war. Due to the political corruption and evil at that time, all industries were depressed and the people were in dire straits, which made a young mind feel the social reality that "the country is weak and the people are poor, letting others bully them", and then inspired him to "revitalize the industry in order to strengthen the country, and to fight for the Chinese nation". When he first arrived in Hong Kong, an international metropolis, the place where he looked up, the place where he walked, the things set up at the counter, foreign goods are full of foreign goods, few national products, he felt very bad. The national pride, patriotic sense of honor, the traveler, so the promotion of national products as their sacred duty. At the same time, he also knows that, in order to realize this ambition, no culture can not, no real talent can not.
To this end, after a year in Hong Kong, he took the plunge and enrolled in a junior college in 1951, where he hungered for cultural knowledge and specialized knowledge in advanced cost accounting, statistics and finance, graduating with honors two years later. In the combination of theory and practice, he found the magic weapon to establish a business: rely on knowledge, rely on the motherland, unite friends, master information, apply economic laws to manage business, and gain credibility with honesty. After several years of hard work, he opened Wing Shing International Goods Co., Ltd. in 1958 and Tai Shing Hong Co., Ltd. in 1960. In the following years, he developed Tai Wah Hong Co., Ltd. and Sun Mui Hong Co. From then on, Mr. Lo Hwan Cheong has been striving to become a prosperous businessman in Hong Kong.
Some people have said, "Behind a successful man, there must be a virtuous woman." This is true. Behind Mr. Law Hwan Cheong, there was a capable woman, who was Mr. Hwan Cheong's wife, Ms. Ho Kwai Ching. Ms. He Guiqing was born in 1928 to a poor farmer in Yonghe Township, Xingning. At a young age, she was promised to Mr. Luo Huanchang as a child bride, and was formally married at the age of nine. At a young age, she learned to make paper fans and sell them to help support her family, and at the age of 15, she went to Nipi Town to pick up salt and sell it in Xingning City. She also learned to weave cloth and make oxen for plowing. Neighbors and townspeople praised her as a thrifty, virtuous and capable daughter-in-law.
Over the decades, Mr. Luo Huanchang's family business in Hong Kong, all the sweat and blood of Ms. He Guiqing. She was Mr. Huanchang's wise wife and advisor when he first came to Hong Kong in 1951, when Mr. Huanchang's business was just a small stall, and he could not earn much money from his hard work. When she saw this situation, she felt very bad and was determined to help her husband. So in addition to bringing up the children and doing household chores, she also helped her husband to look after the stalls and experienced the hardships. Because the couple can share the pain, work together, and can be credible, honest business, and finally from a small stall operators, to own a number of companies in the development of industrialists. What is highly admired is that Ms. Ho Kwai Ching, in the process of establishing industries with her husband***, always insisted on supporting her husband to promote national products and donations to support the construction of their hometowns and public welfare undertakings as a kind of concrete action of patriotism and love for their hometowns. Their words and deeds have won the admiration and praise of their counterparts in Hong Kong.
The success of the business is just as Mr. Luo Huanchang said, "My business can develop, all rely on 'hard work, thrift, hard work' and achieve benefits." "From business not forget to serve the country ...... to fight for the Chinese nation!" This is Luo Huanchang business purpose of doing business. However, only this ambition is not enough, but also with practical action to do, in order to realize. 1950s Hong Kong, the industry is depressed, to develop to be rich how easy! It was not easy to develop and become rich, but it was necessary to be down-to-earth to develop the business. Therefore, at the beginning of the business, Lo Wan Cheong only opened a small rubber shoe stall. It was not until 1958 when he founded the "Yongcheng National Products Company Limited" that his career took a turn for the better.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China (PRC), the motherland began to open up the market for national products in Hong Kong and mobilized merchants to sell national products. Mr. Luo Huanchang was very happy, he secretly resolved to promote national products as his company's sacred duty and industry. The advertising slogan of his company "Tai Shing Hong Ltd." is "Top Sky, Top Earth". These four words have a profound meaning, which not only symbolize the company's business of domestic umbrellas and rubber shoes, but also imply Mr. Lo's wish: to do a good job in the business of national products, so that the motherland will become rich and strong as soon as possible, and to be the most powerful in the world.

Someone said to him, "Aren't you putting yourself at a disadvantage?" He said, "As long as it is beneficial to the country, I am willing to suffer a little loss even if I have to!"
