Xu Fu's Descendants in Haneda

Haneda thinks he is a descendant of immigrants from China, but since the Qin Dynasty, he followed Xu Fu's ferry to Japan to find the elixir of life, and lived there. Haneda claimed: "My ancestor's surname is Qin." "We have the genetic factors of Xu Fu, and the Qinyang Pavilion in my hometown. As descendants of Xu Fu, we are proud ... ""I'm going to visit Xufu Temple in Xufu Village, Ganyu County! " "I'm willing to do anything related to China! I will try to participate in Xu Fu's activities! "

He was warmly received by the then mayor of Lianyungang, and paid a visit to Xufu Temple accompanied by mayor Liu and others. Mr. Haneda's first visit to Ganyu was arranged on his own initiative, with the purpose of tracing back to the source, offering sacrifices to his ancestors, leaving Mo Bao, the "ancestor of Sino-Japanese friendship", and planting ginkgo trees as a symbol of Sino-Japanese friendship. When Mr. Haneda first came to Xufu Village, Jinshan Town, Ganyu County, villagers beat gongs and drums and set off firecrackers in Xufu Temple Square to warmly welcome guests from afar.
