Macau, a limited land of less than 30 square kilometers, is home to a bustling population of 580,000 people. The Chinese civilization, which has been inherited for more than 5,000 years, has encountered, interacted with, and gradually penetrated and merged with Western civilization nearly five hundred years ago. Here people squat in the narrow stone path of the Chinese residents, or the gray stone meets the Portuguese street in front of the water ripple road; n people enjoy the sweetness of almond cakes and peanuts in groups, or taste the beauty of Portuguese egg tarts and pork chop bags. At the time of taste, there will be quite a feeling: the history and status quo of the coexistence and co-prosperity of Chinese and Western cultures have created the famous characteristics of Macao. People, with their ordinary but indispensable struggle, maintain, pass on and sublimate the economic life of Macao. Without them, there would be no past, present and future of the Macao economy. This book is a true story of doing business, exploring people's inextricable links with Macao, listening to their experience of fighting in the sea of ¿¿business and their perception of life.

Li Jia-Zheng and Ge Mei focus research on the history of Macao's social and economic culture, business culture, adopting oral history as a form of historical record.
