Significance in Chinese Culture –
“In Hong Kong, Guan Yu is often referred to as “Yi Gor” (二哥; Cantonese for “second elder brother”) for he was second to Liu Bei in their fictional sworn brotherhood. Guan Yu is also worshipped by Chinese businessmen in Shanxi, Hong Kong, Macau and Southeast Asia as an alternative wealth god, since he is perceived to bless the upright and protect them from the wicked. Guan Yu is also worshiped as a door god in Chinese culture and Taoist temples, with portraits of him being pasted on doors to ward off evil spirits.”
