Guan Yi's personal experience.

After experiencing the risk of struggling abroad, Guan Yi has gained more social experience, greatly improved its ability to analyze, judge and understand the problems that have occurred, and is more objective and practical. He felt that there was no need to go through such difficulties and twists and turns again, and it was safer to return to China to start a business. This is the right choice. Because at this time, the spring breeze of domestic reform and opening up has spread all over the north and south of the country and the land of the motherland, and economic construction has flourished. Therefore, Guan Yi returned to China on 1994. He first opened a shop selling handicrafts in Xiushui Street, Beijing, mainly serving customers in Russia and some countries in Eastern Europe.

In those years, entrepreneurship has just begun. Due to the lack of capital and business experience, it is also very difficult to start a business. Because there is no right entrepreneurial project, it is in its infancy. He has been to all the trading markets, commodity fairs and flea markets that appeared in Beijing at that time, where he set up stalls to sell goods and distributed a variety of products. In order to accumulate funds and explore experience, he has worked in many industries. He has carried out various business activities, constantly studied, summed up experiences and lessons, made many friends, learned many useful things from them, learned valuable experiences and lessons, and got their sincere help and strong support. Make his business ability constantly improve. For the future career development, I have increased my knowledge, broadened my horizons and broadened my thinking. When he first started his business in China, his life was hard, bumpy and extremely hard, but this painful and tortuous experience benefited Guan Yi a lot and was the most precious spiritual wealth in his life.

Became attached to his wife and entered the mahogany industry.

A person's life, to talk about fate. In a business activity, by chance, Guan Yi met a beautiful young lady. We have the same personality and hobbies. Through several years of understanding and understanding, we established a good relationship and finally got married. This is destiny.

As the saying goes: "It's fate to meet thousands of miles away, but we never met." . Guan Yi's wife is from Dongyang, Zhejiang. Dongyang is a world-famous hometown of woodcarving. The woodcarving works here are world-famous and there are many skilled craftsmen engaged in woodcarving. He accompanied his wife to Dongyang, Zhejiang and some famous historical and cultural cities in the south, which opened his eyes. He saw many exquisite woodcarving artworks with high artistic level, and saw many ancient exquisite wooden structures and elegant classical furniture such as buildings, platforms, pavilions and other famous cultural cities in the south of the Yangtze River, which can be called the classic works of China classical architecture. He was greatly interested in classical wood architecture and classical furniture, and this interest quickly rose from simple appreciation and understanding at first to a strong sense of responsibility and a high understanding of the career he would be engaged in. He was inspired by an idea. He saw the importance and urgency of developing classical furniture and studying ancient wooden structures. In this undeveloped field, many aspects are still far behind, and some aspects are even blank, so it is necessary to strengthen the research and development of red wood industry.

After investigation, careful analysis and judgment, Guan Yi believes that the development and research of Chinese classical furniture must be strengthened under the excellent environment of rapid economic development and continuous improvement of people's living standards. He deeply feels that this may be a strong sense of responsibility and mission urging him, which may be an extremely important job he will engage in in in the future. So, he began to read a lot of books about classical furniture and ancient wooden buildings, and studied the works of ancient and modern people about classical furniture and wooden buildings. He understands that classical furniture not only has use value, but also has profound cultural connotation and accumulation, which should be carried forward and passed on to the excellent mahogany culture of the motherland. Our responsibility is not only to inherit and carry forward the essence of classical furniture, but also to innovate and develop on the basis of inheritance. To have the characteristics of our times, we must have a sense of the times. Our generation has an unshirkable responsibility to carry forward and inherit China's classical furniture culture.
