This is very, very special. This is special, I give it to you. Symbolic for good luck. It’s golden, you see? Chinese, they are very smart. They use everything as a symbol just to add to their good luck. Like, the golden color is like gold. And the name is “ju zi” (tangerine). It is similar to “ji xiang,” meaning good luck. So the Chinese, they use everything. They always have the mind to discriminate between the positive and negative. They always use everything positively – anything possible.
Everything to do with gold, silver, prosperity, and luck, they use it all, especially for the (Lunar) New Year. Every symbol or every sound that is positive or good wishing, they use it all. They make everything round, round (vegan) cakes, round (vegan) candy, round whatever. The Koreans are also the same, right? Or not? Not so much like the Chinese. Oh, the Chinese, they are so very, very smart. But they have a large population so they must always think of the way to survive better. Even everything is red. Red means good luck also.
We work very hard. Every day, like that. There’s no holiday. From 9AM, to at least 11PM. (Understand.) Of course, they take two meals a day, but sometimes they have to bring the food to the office, work while eating. I do the same. So, originally, I… wanted to take them out for a meal, like what a company normally does, treating their employees to eat outside, on New Year or Christmas. But I didn’t have time, which they also understand. So I said treating them like this today is equal to treating them to dine out. Cheating, a little bit. And then I said, however, I kind of… I don’t really enjoy eating out. (Understand.) Because eating here is cleaner. It’s cleaner for us to eat. And when we all eat together, the atmosphere is so good. The kitchen team is also happy. The more I eat, the happier they are. They want me to grow bigger. and live longer.
