"Since the Tang Dynasty, passing the imperial examination has been metaphorically referred to as 'plucking a branch from the osmanthus tree in the moon'." In imperial China, the provincial-level exams were typically held in the autumn month of August, coinciding with the blooming of osmanthus trees. Thus, successful candidates were described as having "plucked an osmanthus branch from the moon."Historical records recount that during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, Weng Qiandu, who held the position of Langzhong in the Min Kingdom, changed the surnames of his six sons to avoid political turmoil. The six surnames were: Hong, Jiang, Weng, Fang, Gong, and Wang.
By the early Northern Song Dynasty, these six brothers achieved remarkable success, with "three lists witnessing twin triumphs," an feat that earned them the celebrated title "Liu Gui Lian Fang" — which translates to "The Six Osmanthus Branches, United in Fragrance." This marked the origin of the Six Osmanthus culture.In 2006, Mr. Weng Guoqiang, a descendant of this lineage, founded the brand Liuguifu, inspired by this legendary family heritage, embarking on a path filled with glory and dreams. Liuguifu inherits this millennia-old Six Osmanthus culture and champions a modern-day "spirit of seizing the laurel," —Securing a leading position,Daring to capture the initiative,Pursuing nothing but the best,Striving relentlessly for excellence.
