What is the mystery of "Feng Shui Decoration"

Don't put a mirror opposite the bed in the bedroom, and the chair in the study should be against the wall ... Now some people are superstitious about "Feng Shui". Not only do developers have to look at "Feng Shui" when building a house, but even some ordinary people have to ask Feng Shui masters to "guide the maze" when decorating their houses. Even, there have been some decoration companies with the signboard of "Feng Shui Decoration". What's the mystery in this? The reporter launched an investigation with all kinds of questions.

It costs more to listen to Mr. Feng Shui.

Mr. Liu, who is decorating his new house to get married, has become preoccupied because he consulted Mr. Feng Shui.

"At that time, my home was half full, and the electrician's work and the bricklayer's work were all finished. A friend came and said it's fashionable to watch' Feng Shui' now, so I'll find someone to show it to you ... "After Mr. Feng Shui entered the room, he shook his head while watching:" The layout of your home is not good, which will definitely affect your husband and wife's life in the future. It must be changed, and it must be greatly changed. " The words of "Mr. Feng Shui" kept Mr. Liu awake for several days. "At that time, my fiancee was by my side. As soon as she heard Mr. Feng Shui say that the house affected the marriage, she told me to reinstall it. Just finished loading, you have to tear it down and destroy it ... "Mr. Liu moved the toilet and changed the kitchen, which cost at least 50,000 yuan more.

In the investigation, the reporter found that in order to change the "feng shui", there are not a few people who spend more money.

Many decoration companies are equipped with "feng shui masters"

Because of the market, many home improvement companies have found "Feng Shui Master". As soon as the customer came to the door, the staff lobbied vigorously: "The designer will measure you, and the' Feng Shui Master' will design the' Feng Shui' layout for you to ensure your family's luck."

Reportedly, this kind of "Feng Shui decoration", in addition to the normal decoration costs, 20 yuan will be charged separately per square meter. Then, how will "Feng Shui Master" decorate consumers' houses? The manager of a decoration company said, "It depends on what you require. For example, if you ask for peace and give you a layout, what you want is another one. Similar to fortune telling. Different requirements, different layout. That depends on what you think is prosperous. "

Seeing that the reporter was dubious about "Feng Shui decoration", the staff also told the reporter several "examples" to prove their superstitious ideas: those who believe in "Feng Shui" turn misfortune into luck, and vice versa. "Young man, if your home is decorated, can you find' Feng Shui'?" When the reporter asked the staff of a decoration company, he got the answer: "What's the use of looking for it if you don't look for it!" How come the decoration is comfortable! "

It seems that the theory of "Feng Shui" is also controversial within the decoration company.

"Feng Shui shop" is illegal.

Is it legal to operate "Feng Shui Decoration"? A staff member of the Registration Management Guidance Office of Liaoning Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce explained: "The attitude of the industrial and commercial departments on this issue is very clear. Our industrial and commercial department resolutely refuses to approve all the procedures for applying for Feng Shui-related activities, and no enterprise in the province is allowed to engage in Feng Shui-related business projects. The industrial and commercial departments will investigate and deal with the' Feng Shui shops' that appear in the society.

Feng Anxiang, secretary general of Liaoning Consumers Association, reminded consumers: "If there is no legal business license, I think this business model is doubtful."

Under the guise of "feng shui", just to make money.

Although the business activities related to "Feng Shui" are strictly prohibited by the industrial and commercial departments, the "Feng Shui" mascot has quietly warmed up in many retail industries in Shencheng. The reporter visited a number of flower markets in the city, and some cactus plants were named "Hu Jin" and "Seven Stars shine high". The florist said that these flowers have special functions: "This thing has something to say, the town house." Thorny town houses. "The reporter asked how these flowers ward off evil spirits, and they couldn't tell why. They only said that these statements were all from wholesalers.

"This thing is a flower seller. If you believe that the flower seller will give you some auspicious words. Just like a fortune tree, the name can't be found in the book. " In response to the unfounded superstitious propaganda of individual businesses, the relevant person in charge of the Provincial Consumers Association expressed the hope that consumers would keep their eyes open.

Don't exaggerate the function of "Feng Shui"

What is "Feng Shui"? Qi Shoucheng, a researcher and folklorist at Shenyang Museum of Literature and History, said that the essence of "Feng Shui" is that human beings choose a kind of knowledge that is beneficial to the living environment. "In fact, the so-called" feng shui "land of the ancients generally has mountains and water. Such natural conditions as environment, air, temperature and humidity are all suitable for human habitation. People living in this natural and harmonious environment for a long time will naturally feel better physically and emotionally. In order to achieve business purposes, some merchants exaggerate the role of' geomantic omen' and mix many unscientific things such as heaven, earth, ghosts and gods, leading people into the track of superstition. This is sad. Most people don't understand the original meaning of' Feng Shui'. What they want is a kind of psychological comfort or influence. In fact, no matter how good feng shui is, it only creates external conditions. People's destiny and development still depend on their own efforts. "
