On January 30, the "Feelings of the Family and the Country-Jiangmen Wuyi Yinxin (Overseas Chinese) Special Exhibition" jointly organized by the Xinhai Revolution Museum and the Jiangmen Museum was exhibited in the multi-functional exhibition hall in the south area of the Xinhai Revolution Museum. In 2013, 160,000 Chinese overseas Chinese were inscribed on the Memory of the World Heritage List, of which nearly 50,000 came from Wuyi, Jiangmen, the famous hometown of overseas Chinese.
Exhibition view. "Yinxin" is the abbreviation of the combination of overseas Chinese remittances (silver) and letters (letters) sent by overseas Chinese to their relatives and friends in China in the Cantonese dialect area of Guangdong. Hokkien pronounces "letter" as "batch", so "silver letter" is called "overseas Chinese batch" in Fujian and Chaoshan areas. Overseas Chinese go overseas, and letters become a bond to maintain feelings, expressing the family affection between overseas Chinese and their families. And they worked hard overseas, saved money, and sent the money they had saved back to their relatives to use it for food, clothing, housing and transportation. The remittances brought by Yinxin are the most important economic lifeline of the hometown of overseas Chinese in Wuyi in modern times, and the number of overseas Chinese remittances in Wuyi is huge, known as "the overseas Chinese remittances in Siyi are the crown of Guangdong Province".
The overseas Chinese batch records the difficult entrepreneurial history and strong feelings of the older generation of overseas Chinese, and is also an important embodiment of the Chinese nation's credibility and commitment. "On June 19, 2013, 160,000 Chinese letters were officially inscribed on the Memory of the World Heritage List, of which nearly 50,000 were from the Wuyi area of Jiangmen.
Exhibition view. The exhibition displays a total of 48 sets of cultural relics and historical materials collected by the Jiangmen Museum, and nearly 100 historical figures and charts are displayed. It is divided into six parts: "What is Yinxin, Delivering Yinxin, The Heart of a Wanderer, The Love of Sangzi, The Ambition to Serve the Country, and The Dream of Rejuvenation", which shows the rich cultural connotation and important value of Yinxin (Overseas Chinese Approval), and shows the tenacious fighting spirit of overseas Chinese in Wuyi and the profound feelings of patriotism, love for the hometown and love for the family.
It is not only a responsibility and concern of overseas Chinese to their families, but also the embodiment of the patriotic spirit of overseas Chinese and the motherland who share the same fate", the relevant person in charge of the Xinhai Revolutionary Museum said that today we still want to carry forward the patriotic spirit of overseas Chinese and Chinese people, and contribute to the realization of the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
