When you are rich, you think about your origins and benefit your country. The person who had the most profound influence on Chen Yifu was his uncle Chen Shuijun, who was praised by the founding father of the People's Republic of China, Xi Chengzhi, as "whose sincerity leads to gold and stone." He founded the "Revitalizing China Education Foundation" in 1978. In the past forty years, He spent most of his life's wealth on teaching and running schools.

Nan'an Guild Hall is a township group that first had a temple and then a guild hall. When Chen Yifu was restoring Fengshan Temple, he planned a new idea for fundraising: "throwing bricks to attract jade", using local materials to package the century-old "ox-treading bricks" on the old wall into collectible souvenirs, and giving them to benefactors who donated more than 5,000 yuan. Weng, because the pronunciations of "brick" and "earn" are similar, and the slogan was based on the name of King Guangze: "Loyalty and gratitude, the world will be filled with happiness", and nearly one million yuan was raised in an instant.

In addition to affirming the construction principle of "restoring the old as before", the reuse and fundraising method of "ox treading bricks" with humanistic care also Very seriously.

As a third-generation ancestral villager and the youngest association leader in Singapore, Tan Yik Fook emphasized that the current function of clan associations is different from the role it played in the past. At present, there are fewer and fewer members who need the help of the clan and township groups. Therefore, Nan'an Guild Hall will next focus on cultural inheritance and education improvement. Nan'an Guild Hall itself has a unique Nan'an spirit. It is an important dialect group culture in the Fujian family and an important ethnic culture of Quanzhou Prefecture. Nan'an spirit includes belief culture, charity culture, corporate culture, surname culture (tribal culture) and art world culture, etc. In order to continue to carry forward the Nam On spirit of Singapore Nam On Huay Kuan and preserve the long-standing traditional culture, Tan Yik Fook is willing to lead the way, gather forces from all directions, constantly advance with the times, lead all colleagues of Nan On Huay Kuan to climb new heights, and jointly promote Nan On Yi. The giant wheel of group progress and development.
