165438+1On October 26th, a reporter from Huashang Daily interviewed Chen Junheng, the owner of Kada Yellow River Supermarket. Chen Junheng, 36, from Taibai County, Baoji City, Shaanxi Province, has worked and lived in Qatar for 13 years.
In 2007, Chen Junheng went to Tianjin to study hotel management. It was the "going abroad fever" at that time. Chen Junheng and several classmates "want to see the world", so they went to Dubai for an internship. After graduation, in 2009, Chen Junheng passed an interview in a hotel in Qatar and began to work and live in Qatar.
"I was working from the beginning. After two or three years, I want to start a business. Through research, I found that many enterprises have printing needs, so I set up a trading company in Qatar, backed by the China market, mainly engaged in quick print of graphics and text and wholesale of stationery. " 165438+1October 26th, Chen Junheng said, "Six or seven years later, when I was cooking, I found that it was not easy to buy spices from China in Qatar, so I sprouted the idea of opening a supermarket in China and immediately put it into action. I bought goods from China and opened the only China supermarket in Qatar to sell China's daily necessities. "
Chen Junheng opened the only China supermarket in Qatar.
The name of the company and the name of the supermarket are both called "Yellow River". "This is the name given by my wife. I feel very good. It embodies the characteristics of China, at least in the northwest, because I miss my motherland in a foreign country and can't forget my roots. " 1October 26th, Chen Junheng said.
Business expansion, starting a business with the family.
It is not easy to start a business abroad. At first, the biggest difficulty was language. "I just recite words in my spare time and keep communicating with local people. Slowly, communication becomes barrier-free. " Chen Junheng said, "My daughter-in-law is from Xianyang, Shaanxi. She graduated from English major, with TEM-8 level. She has made great contributions in the process of starting our own business. "
There are too many unforgettable things in the process of starting a business. Chen Junheng didn't know which one to say at the moment. "Now, in addition to quick photo printing and stationery wholesale, this supermarket and international logistics are very busy. We have to deal with many things every day, such as employees, factories, suppliers and so on. These need to be dealt with one by one. " Chen Junheng said.
With the growth of the company's business, Chen Junheng was in urgent need of effective help, so he took his sister's family and other relatives to start a business in Qatar. "My sister is in charge of supermarkets and international logistics, and now we have more than 65,438+00 family members in Qatar." Chen Junheng said.
Chen Junheng's family are all in Qatar.
While starting a business in Qatar, Chen Junheng also got a happy family of four with a son and a daughter. "The eldest goes to elementary school, the second goes to kindergarten, attends an international school in Qatar, and also takes Chinese classes." Chen Junheng said, "My parents also live in Qatar and help us take care of our children. I used to bring my children back to China every winter and summer vacation, but I didn't go back in recent years because of the epidemic. "
Because the World Cup supermarket also has a nickname.
As a fan, Chen Junheng was very excited about the World Cup, and he could watch the game at close range. "I went to the scene to watch a ball game and felt really different. I can feel the atmosphere of the football match, which is crazy. " Chen Junheng said that another thing that made him happy was that he met many China people who came to Qatar to watch the World Cup recently, which could ease their homesickness. "Because of the World Cup, China media who came to Qatar reported on the supermarket, and online celebrity bloggers also came to shoot videos. The popularity of supermarkets has also increased because of the World Cup. "

Will you continue to work and live in Qatar? 165438+1On October 26th, Chen Junheng said, "My parents are old, but they still want to go home. Anyway, we have to wait until the end of the Asian Cup next year. We still want to see the Asian Cup. We haven't discussed this problem with our parents. Let's talk about it later. In fact, we often miss our hometown. But the Chinese in Qatar, like our compatriots at home, are striving for a better life, so we are very busy and have no time to think about many things when we are busy. But I have a proposition that no matter where you are, the family should be together, and China people pay attention to reunion, and the family will be happy. "

During the epidemic, Chen Junheng and his family in Qatar were very homesick and donated masks and other epidemic prevention materials. "Instant noodles were distributed to the epidemic prevention personnel on duty in the village and everyone in the village." Chen Junheng said, "This is also a tradition that my parents have been continuing. You can't forget your roots, you must give back to the society and give back to your hometown folks. "
Chen Qiuyan, Chen Junheng's sister, now lives in Baoji,165438+1October 26th, and her sister Chen Qiuyan said, "Actually, it's not easy for my brother to go abroad after so many years of hard work. My parents haven't returned to China for four years because of the epidemic. My father told me that every time I go back to my hometown, I have to send them videos. Everyone should look at the yard in my hometown and comfort my homesickness. "
Chen Junheng started a business in Qatar with his family.
Sister Chen Qiuyan said that his parents were farmers. When his brother started his business, his parents couldn't help him. He flew abroad for the first time, starting from scratch. "Brother didn't come back for several years, I miss them very much. I hope that the Asian Cup will be reunited with them next year. "
