Ka Moʻolelo o ke Alahele: Ua holomua maikaʻi ʻo Nancy i nā makahiki he iwakālua i hala iho nei ma ka Canton Fair!
I ka wā i hele mua ai ʻo Nancy Du i ka Canton Fair i ka makahiki 1999, ʻaʻole ʻo ia i ʻike e lilo ka hōʻailona maʻalahi e kau ana ma kona ʻāʻī i hoʻomaka ai kahi mea kūikawā. He lahilahi ka hōʻailona a hana ʻia me ka pepa. Ua paʻi ʻia me kona inoa wale nō, akā ua wehe ia i ka puka i kahi honua e wehewehe ma hope i kāna ʻoihana, kāna hihiʻo, a me ka puʻuwai o ka Hui Runtong & Wayeah.
1999: Ke Kaʻanuʻu Mua o ka Wiwo ʻole
Ua piha ka hale i ka pīhoihoi, a ua like ka lewa me ka hoihoi. He mau laʻana wale nō a Nancy a me kahi puʻu o nā puke pai āna i paʻi ai iā ia iho, akā ua hauʻoli ʻo ia e kaʻana like i kēia me nā mea kūʻai aku. ʻAʻole ʻo ia i maopopo i ka mea e manaʻo ai, a inā paha e kū mai kekahi. Akā ua hana kekahi! ʻO kāna mea kūʻai mua, he mea lawe mai liʻiliʻi maikaʻi mai ʻApelika mai, ua hoʻolilo ʻo ia i aneane hapalua hola e kamaʻilio pū me ia e pili ana i nā mea hana a me ka hoʻopili ʻana. He mea liʻiliʻi paha ka ʻaelike, akā iā Nancy, ua like ia me kahi hoʻokō nui.
2000: Hoʻokahi wale nō pae ka Canton Fair
I kēlā manawa, hoʻokahi wale nō ka Canton Fair i kēlā me kēia makahiki, a ua hana lima ʻia nā mea āpau. He maʻalahi nā keʻena kūʻai, ua kākau lima ʻia nā palapala kauoha, a ua hele mai nā mea kūʻai me nā puke papa inoa mānoanoa. Hoʻomanaʻo aloha ʻo Nancy i ke kali ʻana ma ka laina no nā hola e hoʻopaʻa inoa, a pehea ʻo ia i lawe ai i nā pahu o nā laʻana huahana ma ka lima. "He hakakā kēlā me kēia ʻanuʻu," wahi āna, "akā ʻo kēlā me kēia hakakā ua ʻoi aku koʻu maopopo - ʻo kēia kahi aʻu e noho ai."
2004: Ke ʻimi nei i ke kuhikuhi — Mālama kāmaʻa
He makahiki nui ka makahiki 2004 no mākou. Ua ʻike ʻo Nancy i kahi niche o ka mālama kāmaʻa - he noi liʻiliʻi akā e ulu ana ma waena o nā mea kūʻai honua. ʻIke ʻoe, manaʻo maoli wau he ʻokoʻa kēia mau huahana mai nā mea ʻano. Pili lākou i nā kikoʻī a me ke ʻano, a he mea nui loa ia. Ua ʻike ʻo ia he mea kēia hiki iā ia ke hana maikaʻi. I kēlā makahiki, ua hoʻi ʻo ia i ka home a hoʻomaka i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i kāna laina mua o ka polish kāmaʻa a me nā insoles.
2002: E ʻimi i nā huahana e kūpono i nā pono hoʻomohala o nā mea kūʻai aku
ʻO ia nā makahiki o ka ʻimi ʻana - ua hoʻāʻo ʻo Nancy i nā ʻano huahana like ʻole, mai nā waiwai o kēlā me kēia lā a hiki i nā mea pono no ka huakaʻi, me ka maopopo ʻole i ke ala e hele ai. "ʻAʻole i loaʻa iaʻu kahi huahana e hōʻike maoli ana iaʻu," wahi āna. "Akā, he manaʻoʻiʻo koʻu - inā e hoʻomau wau i ka hōʻike ʻana, e loaʻa iaʻu."
2006: Ke neʻe ʻana mai kahi papaʻaina i kahi keʻena hoʻomaha
I ka makahiki 2006, ua loaʻa iā Nancy kāna keʻena ponoʻī, he mea hoihoi loa ia! Ua ʻoi aku ka ʻoihana o nā huahana, a ua ʻoi aku ka maʻemaʻe o ka ʻōpala. ʻO ka mea pōmaikaʻi, ua hoʻomanaʻo ka poʻe i kona helehelena - "ʻO ka wahine me ka pena kāmaʻa mai Yangzhou." Ua ulu a ulu ka Canton Fair, e like me ka mana hoʻokuʻu aku o Kina e ulu nei! No Nancy, he ʻike hoihoi a hoʻohaʻahaʻa maoli ia - ua manaʻo ʻo ia he ʻāpana ʻo ia o kahi mea nui aʻe ma mua ona iho.
2013: Ka Mana o ka Hilinaʻi
He ʻumi makahiki i hala. Ua kipa aku kekahi o kāna poʻe kūʻai mua loa i kona hale kūʻai, e aloha ana iā ia e like me kahi hoaaloha kahiko, he mea nani maoli nō ia. Ua ulu pū lākou - kā lākou ʻoihana, ko lākou ʻohana, a me kā lākou mau moeʻuhane. "ʻAʻole mākou i kālepa wale i nā waiwai," wahi a Nancy. "Aia mākou a pau i loko o kēia pū, ʻike ʻoe, pono mākou e hilinaʻi kekahi i kekahi."
2015: ʻO ka ʻakaʻaka i ka wā o ka Booth
I kēia manawa, ua hoʻololi ʻia ke keʻena kūʻai - i kēia manawa ua hōʻike ʻia nā pahu kukui a me nā laʻana i hoʻonohonoho pono ʻia, me kahi hui liʻiliʻi e minoʻaka ana ma kona ʻaoʻao. ʻAʻole ʻo Nancy wale nō. Ua hoʻokumu ʻo ia i kahi pūnaewele ʻoihana i loko o ka ʻahaʻaina. "ʻAʻole kēlā me kēia hōʻailona he makana," wahi āna. Hōʻike ia i kahi hoʻomanaʻo koʻikoʻi o ko mākou ʻano i kēlā wā.
2023: Hoʻohui Hou a me ke Kūpaʻa
Ma hope o ke ahulau, ua like ka 2023 Canton Fair me kahi hui hou ʻana. Ua huki ka hale kūʻai o Nancy i nā hoa hana āna i ʻike ʻole ai i nā makahiki. Ua kālele nā kūkākūkā ʻana i ke kūpaʻa, nā kaulahao lako, a me ke koʻikoʻi o ka mālama ʻana i ka manaʻolana i ke kālepa. "I kēlā makahiki, ʻoi aku ma mua o ka ʻoihana, pili ia i ka pilina," wahi āna.
Mai ke kanaka hoʻokahi a i kahi hui, mai nā mea kūʻai aku a i nā hoa hana
Ke kamaʻilio ʻo Nancy e pili ana i ka huakaʻi a Runtong, ʻaʻole ʻo ia e hoʻomaka me nā helu a i ʻole nā kauoha.
Hoʻomaka ʻo ia me nā kānaka - nā helehelena āna i hālāwai ai ma ka Canton Fair, nā inoa i kākau ʻia ma nā kāleka ʻoihana melemele, a me nā lulu lima he nui i hoʻomaka ʻole me nā ʻaelike, akā me ka hilinaʻi.
Ma hope o ka hoʻoholo koʻikoʻi a Nancy i ka makahiki 2004 e kālele i ka mālama kāmaʻa a me nā huahana insole, ua hoʻomaka ka hale kūʻai liʻiliʻi āna i noho ai ma mua e huki i nā mea kūʻai aku e hoʻi mai ana. ʻO kekahi o kēia poʻe he mau mea kūʻai maʻamau mai ʻEulopa mai i hoʻoholo e kipa aku i kēlā me kēia makahiki, ʻaʻole wale no ke kau ʻana i nā kauoha akā no ke kūkākūkā ʻana hoʻi i nā ʻano mākeke, nā mea hou o ka ʻohana, a me nā hale kūʻai hou e wehe ʻia ana.
"ʻAʻole lākou i ʻike wale mai iaʻu ma ke ʻano he mea hoʻolako," wahi a Nancy me ka mālie. "Ua mālama lākou iaʻu ma ke ʻano he hoa hana nona ka pilina ʻoihana lōʻihi."
Ua hoʻonui ʻia ka ʻoihana a Runtong ma ke ʻano like - ma ke ʻano akahele, kūlike, a me ke aloha. Ua aʻo ʻo Nancy ma ke kālepa ʻana, ʻo ka hilinaʻi ke kālā maoli. ʻO ka huahana maikaʻi ka hana mua, akā he mea nui hoʻi e hoʻokūpaʻa i ke koʻikoʻi o ka ʻoiaʻiʻo a me ka hilinaʻi i mea e mālama ai i ka pilina maikaʻi me nā mea kūʻai aku.
Aia kekahi mau manawa i emi iki ai ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻouna ʻana, a i ʻole i kū mai ai nā pilikia o nā kumukūʻai hoʻololi.
E hana ʻo Nancy i ka pō e pane ana i nā nīnau a ka mea kūʻai aku, e hāʻawi ana i nā wehewehe piha, a e hōʻoia ana ua maopopo a mahalo ʻia kēlā me kēia mea kūʻai aku. "I kekahi manawa, ʻaʻole ka pahuhopu e hoʻoponopono koke i kahi pilikia," wahi āna. ʻO ka pahuhopu ka kamaʻilio ʻana i kekahi kanaka ua loaʻa iā lākou ke kākoʻo a ʻaʻole lākou hoʻokahi.
I loko o ia wā, ua nui ka nui o nā leka uila i hoʻomaka me nā huaʻōlelo penei:
"Aloha e Nancy, mahalo no kou hoʻomaopopo ʻana..."
"Mai hopohopo, e kali wale mākou no kāu ukana aʻe."
He maʻalahi nā huaʻōlelo, akā iā Nancy, ua lawe mai lākou i ka mehana.
I ka oʻo ʻana o ka ʻoihana, ua hoʻomaka ka Hui Runtong & Wayeah e hoʻokumu - ʻaʻole ma ke ʻano he ʻano ʻoihana, akā ma ke ʻano he pōʻai o ka poʻe i pili ʻia e ka manaʻoʻiʻo like: ʻo ka hana ʻana i ka ʻoihana me ka ʻoiaʻiʻo e lawe mai i nā pilina mau loa.
Ua hana pū ka nui o kā lākou mau mea kūʻai aku me lākou no nā makahiki he ʻumi a ʻoi. Ua kipa aku kekahi o kēia poʻe i ka hale hana ma Yangzhou, ʻaʻole no ka nānā ʻana, akā no ke kumu o ka hoʻoulu ʻana i ka pilina. Ua lawe mai lākou i nā makana mai ko lākou mau ʻāina ponoʻī, lawe kiʻi me ka hui, kaʻana like i nā meaʻai a me nā manawa o ka launa pū ʻana.
Ua ʻōlelo kekahi o nā mea kūʻai aku lōʻihi a Nancy mai ʻAmelika Hema, ua like ke kipa ʻana aku i kona hale kūʻai me ka hoʻi ʻana i ka home.
No Nancy, ʻo kēia ke ʻano mahalo kiʻekiʻe loa i hiki iā ia ke loaʻa.
I ka hala ʻana o ka manawa, ʻaʻole i alualu ka ʻoihana i ka hoʻonui wikiwiki ʻana a i ʻole kahi laina huahana ākea. Akā, ua kālele ʻo ia i ka lilo ʻana i hoa hilinaʻi - e pane koke ana, e hoʻopilikino me ka maʻalahi, a e mālama ana i nā ʻōlelo hoʻohiki.
Ua wehewehe ʻia me ke ahonui kēlā me kēia pane leka uila, kēlā me kēia laʻana i hoʻouna ʻia, a me kēlā me kēia hoʻouna i hoʻopaneʻe ʻia, e kōkua ana i ke kūkulu mālie ʻana o ka inoa o Runtong ma nā ʻāina ʻē.
Pono e hoʻomaopopo ʻia ʻo kēlā me kēia pahu i hoʻouna ʻia ua hōʻike i kahi ʻoi aku ma mua o kahi hana ʻoihana wale nō; ua hōʻike pū ia i kahi pilina.
Ua hāpai kēlā me kēia pahu i ke kaumaha o nā kamaʻilio ʻana, ka hilinaʻi, a me ka mālama - kahi pilina i hoʻokumu ʻia ma luna o nā makahiki o ke kūlike.
I kēia lā, ke kipa aku nā mea kūʻai aku hou i ka hale kūʻai o Runtong a nīnau e pili ana i nā ʻano kūikawā e hoʻokaʻawale ai i kā mākou hui, ua mākaukau mākou e pane. Ua minoʻaka ʻo Nancy a ʻōlelo mai, "Malia paha ʻo ia ka mea e hoʻomanaʻo nei mākou i nā kānaka, ʻaʻole wale nā kumukūʻai, ʻo ia ka pilikia."
ʻAʻole i hoʻokele ʻia ka ulu ʻana o ka Hui Runtong & Wayeah e ka hoʻonui ʻana, akā, e ka hoʻolaʻa ʻana i ka maikaʻi a me kahi manaʻo ikaika o ke kumu.
ʻO ka 138th Canton Fair: He Mokuna Hou o nā Hālāwai
I ka wehe ʻana o ka 138th Canton Fair, ua hōʻike hou ʻia ka Hui Runtong & Wayeah ma ka hale kaulana akā e loli mau ana. ʻO ke keʻena kūʻai hou he hōʻike ia o ka ʻike loea o Nancy, e hōʻike ana i kahi palette waihoʻoluʻu mālie, kahi hoʻonohonoho ākea, a me nā huahana e ʻōlelo no lākou iho.
I kēia makahiki, ua haʻaheo ka hui e hōʻike i kahi hanauna hou o nā insoles hōʻoluʻolu a me nā manaʻo hoʻopili kūlike ʻole, i hoʻolālā ʻia no nā mea kūʻai aku honua e ʻimi nei i ka hui pū ʻana o OEM/ODM. "ʻO kā mākou pahuhopu ka hana ʻana i kahi ʻano e hoʻāla ai i ka manaʻo o kahi moʻolelo e wehe ʻia ana," wahi a Nancy. "No ka mea, lilo kēlā me kēia malihini kipa i ʻāpana o kā mākou mokuna aʻe."
ʻEpilogue: Mai ke kanaka hoʻokahi a i kahi hui, Mai kahi pass a i kahi kumu
Ua komo ʻo Runtong i nā ʻaha kūʻai kālepa he nui i nā makahiki he iwakālua i hala iho nei, a i loko o ia manawa ua hoʻokumu ʻo ia i nā pilina ʻoihana he nui. Mai ka hōʻailona pepa o 1999 a i ka smart pass o 2025, ua kālele mau ʻo Nancy i ka wā e hiki mai ana.
He hui ʻo Runtong & Wayeah Team i ʻike ʻia no kona kūpaʻa i ka hana lima, ka ʻoiaʻiʻo a me ka launa pū ʻana. Hoʻokipa maikaʻi mākou i nā hoaaloha a pau, nā mea kahiko a me nā mea hou, e hui hou me mākou ma Booth 14.4 I12 a me 5.2 F12, a e hoʻomau i ka hele pū ʻana ma kēia alanui lōʻihi a nani.
Ka manawa hoʻouna: ʻOkakopa-23-2025
