十八条好汉一条心

週六上午在美国德州休斯敦国际区美南新闻广场上， 天上万里晴空， 地下十八条好汉為将来的环球第一银行金融中心大厦剷上沙土， 為我们多年来奋斗之目标插下了第一个标竿。

近五年多来之艰难岁月， 我们团队没有退缩过， 兄弟们多半是来到这块土地的新移民， 大家秉持勤俭认真之刻苦精神， 如今在传媒、 金融银行、旅馆、 加油站、  地產 、高科技、 法律、 学术界卓有所成 ，我们的基本信念是创办一家永续经营的社区银行為大家服务。

这次的计划方案并非易事， 正逢百年未遇之新冠疫情加上復杂繁琐堆聚如山之申请文件， 绝非当初所想之易事。

在最后关头我们相互鼓励加油， 最后以绝不放弃之毅力， 终於心想事成， 美梦成真。

今天我们最初参加筹备的创办人， 共聚一堂， 在好友格林议员的见证下， 為这家新银行奠定坚实之基石。

礼毕后我们送他上车，和他併肩而行， 他的微笑充满着祝贺和期待， 确实这步到达工地的路已走了整整五年， 这份胜利甜美之果实将会在大家的人生图腾上划下重重的一笔。

我们开始了新的征路， 多少好友同事共聚一堂， 庆祝银行的第一个圣诞节日， 歌声欢笑和佳餚， 我们已经是一个温馨的大家庭。

Eighteen Founders With One Heart 

On Saturday, December 17, 2023, at the Southern News Group square, it was a beautiful day with a blue sky above as the founders of Global One Bank along with Congressman Al Green attended the bank's ground-breaking ceremony, the day we had been expecting for many years. 

Most of our founders are new immigrants who came to this land and have adhered to the spirit of diligence and seriousness. Now they have achieved great success in banking, hotels, gas stations, real estate, high tech, legal and academic circles. Our common goal now is to establish a community bank to serve our whole community. 

This plan was not easy. The Covid-19 pandemic which had never been seen in a century and the complicated application documents that were required gathered like a mountain. It was not as easy as we thought at the beginning. 

With a 'never giving up spirit,' we finally succeeded in opening the new bank. This sweet victory will mark a heavy stroke on everyone’s life totem.

Tonight together we all celebrated the first Global One Bank Christmas party with so much joy as we were joined by many dear friends who also attended. Now we have really become a warm family.
