Among the fish pond owners and fishing enthusiasts in Huayang Town, Shuangliu County, Chengdu, there is a legend: he plunged into the commercial sea over 10 years ago and has earned millions of yuan, but he is never connected with a luxurious lifestyle. He doesn't like gambling, and the only thing he loves is fishing.

Whether his business makes a profit or not, he never changes his annual investment in fishing of over 100,000 yuan. He often organizes fishing activities for fishing enthusiasts, and even specially formed a fishing team, which regularly visits the rivers, reservoirs and fishing ponds around Chengdu. Though he can catch a lot of fish every time, his aim is not to gain profit through fishing, but to enjoy life. His best friends are a group of ospreys.

Accidently, the reporter got a chance to get to know this the character of this legend, 47-year-old man Xiao Cheng from Huayang.
