Lights and Sea


ONE OUTSIDE: We heard that you had the idea while you were self-driving travailing in remote mountains. Then you started to go to the countryside, to open up wasteland, and to live like a new-age farmer. What made you have this idea?

Answer: It is fate, but it also isnt fate. It can be cover by this sentence. I am not rich nor a rich second generation. The self-driving trip I had three years ago woke my uninhibited heart. We work and live in big cities. There are pressure and motivations. There is an attachment to nature hiding in our hearts. We are just too busy to see and sense it. Why cant the flourish of the cities combine with lonesome of the remote mountains? This is why I have my dream to become a new-age farmer.

 

ONE OUTSIDE: Is the brand name, Qiaoben Jiangxin, related to your feeling to live in remote mountains?

Answer: Qiaoben Jiangxin.

We didnt think to run it as a brand when we created it. It is more like a lifestyle. We were living in big cities and busy. Therefore we treasure our life now. To feel our lives and combine living with working. This is what we hope for.


After we organized the land, we finally chose what to plant. We did plenty research and screening. We found our true heart in fruit trees. It is as same as Jobss pursuing Apple, and the Sushi gods pursuing the real meaning of life.


Most of the time, the orchard is quiet. You need love and passion for trees to grow. We dont use and chemical fertilizer and pesticides, we weed by our hands and let the trees grow naturally, this is our way of exploration.


Everything grows, the flower opens and falls. If there is anything you want to do, do it.

Upper photo: The slogan speaks of time. You can feel the feelings of marching into the new era. The photo was taken when Kuo Min Tang lost in the election.

Lower photo: An elder sister in the village is drying sasanqua with her father. Their smiles are true and honest.


ONE OUTSIDE: What made you decide to open an inn in the remote corner of the city?

Answer: I think farm and inn are connected, probably it is because of sentiments. But business is a business. Running an inn needs profit to support. I have my yacht, so I know that yacht is an industry which has low consumption rate and high expense. So it is important to choose an appropriate mode to run it if one wants to start a yacht rental business. The first way is to horizontal integration which is to organize yacht owners, such as the car-sharing program of EHi Car Rental Service and CARH. But Ayang thought it is too complicated. Every yacht owner has their special idea. Most of the yachts are customized, they are far from the bike-sharing program. So I choose vertical integration, combine yacht with an inn. The sea culture is flourishing overseas, and the combination of the yacht and the inn has been popular for a long time. Yachts mostly perched near the sea which is ecological and natural. So if you look it from this point of view which is to drive yacht to the adjacent sea, the remote corner of the city is the best choice to open an inn.

 

ONE OUTSIDE: Many people long the life of while picking asters 'neath the Eastern fence, and gaze upon the Southern mountain. What do you think is the difference between this kind of lifestyle and the inn-lifestyle?

Answer: The prosperous big cities are diminishing the actual nature of people unnoticed. For most of the people, they have dreamt the simple and poetic life of while picking asters 'neath the Eastern fence, and gaze upon the Southern mountain. But those dreams gradually disappear because of the armored concrete, high apartment price and the pressure of working. Farm and agriculture are a long-term invest industry; it requires patience and perseverance.

As for me, let go of everything, focus on living as an expert on the life and an entrepreneur while breathing the cold and clean air of the Shenzhen Nan'ao sea, watching the blue ocean and green mountain.

I am planning another program which is a boutique hotel, and it will be opened next year, this is another foothold for me after I retire. Maybe by that time, the production of the farm can be used to supply it. So my farm dream can be made good use.

 

ONE OUTSIDE: If the warm light of the inn can make people feel at home, then driving a yacht plowing through waves is a very different feeling. We heard that you have loved sailing boat and yacht since college. Have you ever sailed by yourself?

Answer: It is because of an experience. One summer vacation when I was in college, I went abroad to play. I was invited to my friends home. That was my first time on a private yacht. The feeling of sailing on the ocean impressed me. I couldnt forget yacht since then. The first time I drove a yacht alone was after I had my very first yacht, A little distance from Shenzhen open waters is Hongkong waters. Some of the islands are in Shenzhen waters, but they belong to Hongkong. I remember that when I drove near one of the islands, a Hongkong water police drove from the island to expel me, and he started to radio after he came near me. I felt baffling and helpless.


ONE OUTSIDE: Can you explain the charm of the yacht as a yacht player.

Answer: Living on the yacht is very different from living on the land. From land to ocean, it feels like you return to the blue space. It is a brand new experience. It is a lifestyle which you return to the ocean. This isnt just a farewell to the life on the land. The yacht is also the best place to get away from the pomp and the noise of the city. You will feel free and peaceful on the yacht.

When people is on the way to success, they will be impetuous and self-aggrandizing. In peaceful days, you can drive the yacht to plow through waves, to experience the free and romantic feelings. There are no better things in life. When storms come, the high waves and the great power of the ocean can make you feel small compared to the magic power of nature. This is an introspection of nature and ourselves.


ONE OUTSIDE: What kind of professional knowledge is needed to become a yacht player?

Answer: It is comparably easy to drive a yacht. And compare to driving cars, you wont feel the nervousness and complication of the complicated road condition. You can even drink tea when you are driving a yacht. But it is also difficult because the ocean is very different from the land. The driver must know the wind direction, current, course, rules of navigation, submerged rocks, weather, the performance and the condition of your yacht. There are many types of research and examinations need to be done before sailing. Otherwise, the danger is enormous.

During typhoon season, it is a high-level challenge to sail for yacht players. You need to consider everything even include anchoring the yacht and transferring the berth of the yacht. Dont have fluke mind!


ONE OUTSIDE: What have your heart and mind changed after living far away from the cities?

Answer: Living your life the way you wanted is the only standard of happiness. It is also a process of cultivation. Gradually, you wont care the viewpoints and attitudes of the outside world. Your heart will be stronger. This is just letting go of everything. Then you can recognize the reality and see what you need. This how you can be happy and hardworking.

Confucious said,the wise find joy in water; the benevolent find joy in mountains.I think the countryside and ocean are the happiness I am looking for.
