Guan Yu was a famous general in Shu and Han Dynasties. After his death, he was revered by the people and praised by the court. He was honored as Guan and also called Bodhisattva by Buddhism. Later, he was honored as a "warrior sage", just like Confucius nicknamed "Wen Sheng". People have worshipped him since ancient times. Guan Gong Temple looks around the world, and five continents burn incense everywhere. According to incomplete statistics, there are more than 30,000 Guandi temples in more than 30 countries and regions in the world, and there are more than 1000 Guandi temples in Japan and Malaysia alone. From 65438 to 0999, Madagascar issued a large number of stamps depicting Guan Gong. In 2000, India was still building a large-scale Guan Gong Park. This top-down worship of Guan Yu, which is widely spread at home and abroad, has distinct national characteristics and extremely rich cultural connotations. It expresses people's desire for heroes and reveals people's desire for loyalty. Guan Yu is also worshipped by business people, such as pawnbrokers, fortune tellers, candles, sericulture, silk weaving, cakes, etc., all of whom regard Guan Yu as their ancestor.

Besides Guan Gong, there are many historical figures in our country who are regarded as the founders of the industry by later generations. Industry ancestor worship is a branch of folk culture. In the past, all industries attached great importance to it and regarded it as the patron saint of the industry. There is a folk saying that "three hundred and sixty lines, no ancestors can stand." Grandfathers are very prestigious people, who directly or indirectly created and supported this industry. Some people became grandfathers by accident, some were forced by later generations, and some industries used a grandfather, just like Guan Yu mentioned above. Some people have several grandfathers in the same industry, such as Guan Zhong, Chi You, Zhang Fei, Yan Di and Lu Ban in the salt industry.
