Bees are fierce, wealth is sweet.
Highlights: in the evening, 200 beehives wait for more than 7 million bees to return to their hives. In a spectacular scene, people's lives are in danger if they are not well protected. Zuo Fenglong, a young man in Heze, Shandong Province, found a business opportunity among bees. But his behavior is not understood, the most difficult time, he borrowed more than 30 relatives and friends, difficult life. See how Zuo Fenglong changes his fate through bees.
In August, the sunflowers on Horqin prairie ushered in the most gorgeous day of the year, which also let countless bees smell incense.
Millions of bees have been here for more than 20 days, and with the end of the sunflower bloom, these bees will be on their way to the next place. Zuo Fenglong began to get busy. He wanted to load the bees into the car within 2 hours.
Zuo Fenglong: within 2 hours, that is to say, within dark, you must install all these beehives. You can't install them after dark. The bees will sting when they climb.
The seemingly simple handling of beehives is often the beginning of a crisis.
Bees are usually kept in a fixed location of the hive, with the hive moving bees sometimes can not find their own home. Bees usually do not sting people, if can not find a nest will become very manic, hit people will sting. If a person is stung by 100 bees, his life will be in danger. There are a total of 200 boxes of bees, each with 30, 5000 bees, with a total of more than 7 million bees. If these more than 7 million bees are not allowed to find their homes smoothly, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Fireworks are lit here to prevent bees from stinging.
Lin Weihua, a honeybee farmer in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province: smoke it and it's not very stinging.
Reporter Bi Yue: are you afraid of this smoke?
Lin Weihua, a honeybee farmer in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province: just afraid of smoke, bees.
The move must be in the evening, when the bees have returned to their nests. In addition to constantly burning the bees, everyone has taken strict protective measures, although wearing protective clothing, but not long after the scene was surrounded by bees or stung.
Lin Weihua, a honeybee farmer in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province: bite your hand, bite here, bite twice.
The reporter was stung by a bee twice.
Reporter Bi Yue: the jellyfish needle just now, (hand) is not strong, and then it hurts as soon as it moves.
Zuo Fenglong said that bees like to stare at black things. during filming, the bees circled around the camera when suddenly the camera reporter said he had been stung.
Reporter Bi Yue: tears are coming out.
Camera reporter Li long: it just flows on its own. It hurts so much that it really hurts. It really hurts. Wait a minute. I can't sit still.
Farmer: what's the matter, uncomfortable?
Zuo Fenglong: no, it stung on the lips.
Reporter Bi Yue: is your mouth swollen? Swollen
Camera reporter Li long: I feel it, it's swollen, I don't dare to move, my upper lip is swollen, I dare not move, it hurts to death.
The encounter of the camera made the truck driver who came to transport the bees so nervous that he picked up a military coat from the ground and put on it and fled the scene of the move.
At seven o'clock in the evening, after two hours of busyness and several stings, Zuo Fenglong finally finished loading the car for his partner before dark, and the beekeeper will go to his hometown in Zhejiang, 2600 kilometers away, to collect camellia honey.
Lin Weihua, a honeybee farmer in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province: then (we) are leaving.
Zuo Fenglong: goodbye.
Sent away the partner, the next day Zuo Fenglong took us to another place where he collected honey.
Zuo Fenglong is from Juye County, Shandong Province. Zuo Fenglong, 34, has been beekeeping with his father since the age of 14, earning an average of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a year for more than 10 years. But in 2013, Zuo Fenglong unexpectedly found a business opportunity from bees, and two years later, his annual sales exceeded 6 million yuan.
From a hard beekeeper to aspiring to become a leader in the honey industry, Zuo Fenglong's change began with his father's tears.
He is Zuo Yawei, the father of Zuo Fenglong. He is 60 years old and has been out collecting honey for more than 40 years. But one day in 2006, Zuo Fenglong found his father secretly wiping tears. When this matter was mentioned in the interview, Zuo Fenglong's father began to get excited again.
Zuo Fenglong's father Zuo Yawei: because of bees. It is selfless dedication to mankind, people should not misunderstand it, people should not throw dirty water on it, now its treatment, is what people say it, this unfair, I feel that every time I think of it, I will cry.
Zuo Fenglong: at that time, I thought it was a reason for me to do it firmly.
Zuo Fenglong asked his father why he was crying. It turned out that some time ago, his father had pulled honey to sell, but the customer said that the honey he took directly from the beehive could not be eaten.
Zuo Fenglong's father Zuo Yawei: honey can not be eaten without disinfection, this is an insult to bees, you say bees selfless dedication and hard work, I am aggrieved for bees.
Reporter Bi Yue: grievance for bees?
Zuo Fenglong's father Zuo Ya is: yes.
Zuo Fenglong: what does he feel most aggrieved, which is also one of the things that most bee farmers feel aggrieved? Consumers don't understand us.
Zuo Fenglong could not forget the scene of his father's tears. He later learned that many consumers are reluctant to buy honey and people don't trust honey. When it comes to citizens' prejudice against honey, they have to make ripe honey and immature honey.
This is a bee that has just collected nectar, its belly glittering and translucent.
After collecting nectar, bees will constantly eat and spit out the nectar in the beehive, brew it repeatedly, and use their wings to fan the wind to remove excess moisture from the honey. The bees then seal the honey with their own wax, so that naturally mature honey is called mature honey, also known as capping honey. This requires bees to work for more than 7 days.
The immature honey is the honey which is artificially taken away before the bees have been brewed for a day or two, also known as water honey. Immature honey can only be sold after dehydration at high temperatures.
Chen Lihong, secretary general and vice president of the Chinese Beekeeping Society: if the high temperature is concentrated for a long time, then it will destroy the nutrients in honey, especially vitamins, enzymes and active substances, so there is no way to retain it. Fragrance and flavor will be lost, then the color will change.
Zuo Fenglong always wanted to make cooked honey, but in 2005, the mature honey he made was rejected by the acquirers, who were unwilling to accept it, so they asked him to add water to the honey to make low concentration honey.
