Why Cantonese people are so low-key

Guangdong people's low profile is also related to their family and socio-cultural background.

Guangdong is a region with a strong sense of family, and the Cantonese focus on family harmony and stability, emphasizing the honor and dignity of the family. Guangdong people also pay attention to the maintenance and development of interpersonal relationships, they believe that "acquaintances are hard to find, good people are hard to do", so they attach great importance to the maintenance of interpersonal relationships. This cultural background also influences the behavior and speech of Cantonese people, making them more low-key and introverted.

The Guangdong people's low profile is also related to their history and national culture. Guangdong was an important overseas trading port in China's history and had close interactions with the rest of the world. This historical background has exposed the Cantonese to many foreign cultures and ideas, and made their culture more open and tolerant.

Characteristics of Cantonese People:

The best characteristic of Cantonese people is that they are very hardworking and entrepreneurial. They are hardworking, willing to work hard, and dare to innovate and try new things. This has put Guangdong at the forefront of China's reform and opening-up process. Many Guangdong people started their businesses in the early days of reform and opening up and became leaders in China's new industries. For example, Guangdong's jewelry industry, toy industry, and electronics industry. These industries have now become global industries. The open and enterprising spirit of Guangdong people has made a significant contribution to China's economic development.

In short, the low-profile personality of Cantonese people is deep-rooted, reflecting the traditional culture and personality traits of Cantonese people. This low-keyness is not timidity or cowardice, but a kind of wisdom and self-discipline, a unique character and value formed by the Cantonese in their long cultural and historical inheritance. Although Cantonese people are often not good at proclaiming themselves, they have proved themselves with practical actions and strengths, making great contributions to China's reform, opening up and modernization.
