欢迎来我的家乡做客 Welcome to my hometown

我的家乡也是曾经的世界第六首富“林绍良先生”的故乡。

My hometown is also the home of Mr. Lin Shaoliang, once the sixth richest man in the world.

林绍良（1916.07.16－2012.06.10），印尼林氏集团董事长，印尼政府经济顾问，印尼前首富，美国《投资家》杂志将其列为世界12大银行家之一，曾被称为“世界十大富豪之一”。

Lin Shaoliang (1916.07.16-2012.06.10), chairman of Indonesia's Linshi Group, economic adviser of the Indonesian government and former richest person in Indonesia, was listed as one of the world's 12 largest bankers by Investors magazine in the United States, and was once called "one of the ten richest people in the world".

1995年集团的总资产高达184亿美元，营业总额约200亿美元，所属公司640家。（摘自百度百科）

In 1995, the total assets of the Group amounted to 18.4 billion US dollars, with a total turnover of about 20 billion US dollars and 640 affiliated companies.

说起林绍良先生，一直以来都是我们家乡人的骄傲，从一个贫穷的人白手起家到一个世界的第六首富，是一个多么伟大的传奇。而今天我将带你们走进林绍良的家乡——福建省福清市海口镇牛宅村。

Speaking of Mr. Lin Shaoliang, he has always been the pride of our hometown. What a great legend it is to start from a poor man to the sixth richest man in the world. Today, I will take you to Niuzhai Village, Haikou Town, Fuqing City, Fujian Province, Lin Shaoliang's hometown.

可能一看到“牛宅”两个字大家会好奇，怎么会有这么奇怪的村名，当然它也是始于一个美丽的传说。

Maybe when you see the word " Niuzhai ", you will be curious, how can there be such a strange village name, of course, it also started from a beautiful legend.

在这里你会看到很多“元载……”如“元载小学”“元载路”等，这些都是林绍良先生为家乡做出的贡献。虽然他已经不在了，但是他为家乡人民所作出的贡献是不可磨灭的。

Here you will see a lot of "Yuanzai..." Such as "Yuanzai Primary School" and "Yuanzai Road", these are Mr. Lin Shaoliang's contributions to his hometown. Although he is no longer there, his contribution to the people of his hometown is indelible.

来到村口，你就会看见一头石牛立在村口（当然没有华西村的金牛值钱），仿佛你看到了传说中的那头牛。从村口往右的那条路就是“元载路”，路的两旁种了榕树相互拥抱，形成了一个“拱门”，这也是我们读书的时候的必经之路。透过树与树直接的间隙，你可以看见一栋栋正在修建的和已经修建好的别墅，这就是每个牛宅人用他们的聪明智慧赚来的“面子”。福清人好面子，房子建的一个比一个大，一个比一个气派，,村中还流传 “牛宅起大厝,鸟仔飞不过”的顺口溜。 而大部分的人也都是过年的时候回家住上十来天，然后又匆匆得往外面做生意赚钱。

When you come to the entrance of the village, you will see a stone cow standing at the entrance of the village (of course, there is no value for the Taurus in Huaxi Village), as if you saw the legendary cow. The road from the village entrance to the right is "Yuanzai Road". Banyan trees are planted on both sides of the road to embrace each other and form an "arch", which is also the only way for us to study. Through the direct gap between the tree and the tree, you can see the villas that are being built and have been built. This is the face that every cow house man earns with their wisdom. Fuqing people have a good face. One house is bigger than the other, and the other is more elegant. There is also a saying in the village that "the cow house is bigger than the bird can fly". Most of them also go home for more than ten days during the Spring Festival and then rush out to do business to make money.

说到牛宅村就不得不说到牛宅山下自然村的“全国最大弥勒佛像——弥勒岩山麓”，有一高大石佛盘膝而坐，这就是名闻遐迩的弥勒石雕造像。石佛像始凿于元至正年(公元1341年)，至明洪武年(公元1368年)竣工，高6.8米，宽8.9米，由整块花岗岩就地琢成，天然妙相，袒胸露腹，两耳垂肩，笑态可掬，观者可以忘忧。经国家文物局认。定，该石佛为全国最大的立体石刻弥勒佛像，已纳入国家级文物保护单位。（摘自百度百科）

Speaking of Niuzhai Village, we have to talk about the "largest statue of Maitreya Buddha in the whole country - the foothills of Maitreya Mountain" in Niuzhai Mountain. There is a tall stone Buddha sitting cross-legged. This is the famous statue of Maitreya Stone. Stone Buddha statues were chiseled from Yuan to Zhengnian (1341 A.D.) and completed in Hongwunian (1368 A.D.) of Ming Dynasty. They are 6.8 meters high and 8.9 meters wide. They are made of whole granite in situ. They have natural beauty, open breasts and abdomen, earlobes and shoulders, laughing and can be forgotten by the viewers. It is recognized by the State Administration of Cultural Relics. The stone Buddha is the largest three-dimensional statue of Maitreya Buddha in China and has been included in the national cultural relics protection unit.

记得小时候（那已经是二十多年前了），我们经常爬到弥勒佛的手上，身上，甚至有胆子大的直接爬到佛像的头上拍照。然后用石头砸弥勒佛的肚脐眼，就因为我们村里流传了一句话“弥勒佛，锤肚脐，锤了会发财。”以至于现在的弥勒佛像的肚脐有碗口那么大，到后面镇府开始对其实行了保护，现在到那里只能看不能摸。其实这里还有明朝时期戚继光的抗倭遗址，还有许多文人墨客的石刻诗文，仿佛把人带到了那个时代。站到山顶往下眺望，你可以看到整个牛宅村还有海口镇的海，壮观无比。

I remember when I was a child (it was more than twenty years ago), we often climbed to the hands of Maitreya Buddha, body, and even dared to climb directly to the head of the Buddha to take pictures. Then we hit Maitreya Buddha's navel eye with a stone, because there is a saying in our village: "Maitreya Buddha, hammer the navel, hammer will make a fortune." So much so that the navel of Maitreya Buddha is as big as the bowl mouth. It began to be protected in the back town hall. Now it can only be seen and touched there. In fact, there are also Qi Jiguang's anti-Japanese relics in the Ming Dynasty, and many stone inscriptions by literati and Mohists, which seem to have brought people to that era. Standing at the top of the hill and looking down, you can see the whole Niuzhai village and Haikou Town's sea, which is magnificent.
