Gui Faxiang originated in 1927, when he was near the beginning of the last century, he was born in an alley named 18th Street in Weihaihe, Tianjin. At first, there was only a small twist shop, which was already known at the beginning. Tianjin City people frequented it and loved it. The small shop number was called "Gui Faxiang". Because the local people especially liked to name the street by the name of the street, the horn of the 18th Street twist was also named.
