Today I got new business cards with on one side all my coordinates in English and on the other side all in Chinese. Even my name had to be translated in Chinese characters (see pic) and so the folks here decided to call me Fu Bao Lu.
Here is the explanation given to me : "Your surname in Chinese is FU, the basic meaning of the character is rich and wealthy;the given name has been translated to Bao Lu, we used the characters to reflect the prounuciation of your English name, meanwhile they also meant wealthy plus happiness. So we gave you this name to wish you to be a happy person and with a wealthy life."
I ain't complaining
Fu Bao Lu
