Greetings from Mr. Fortune



Well, I just invented that name because this guy is wishing everyone
恭喜發財
Gōngxǐ fācái
"Congratulations and be Prosperous"



 While the first two words of this phrase (Gōngxǐ)
had a much longer historical significance,
 in practical terms involve surviving
the harsh winter conditions.

While the last two words (Fācái) just simply
be prosperous especially
in terms of wealth.
