Seven years ago, after Meizhou Island opened up as a "Foreign Tourism Economic Zone," large-scale construction began on the island. At the time when local residents espied a motorized tractor, they took it to be a monster from the spirit world. Such was the complete insularity that originally possessed Meizhou Island.
七年前，湄洲島開放為旅遊經濟區之後，島上就開始大興土木，當時居民看到電動的拖拉機還以為是神靈怪物，可知湄洲島原本的單純封閉。
