What does Ma Daha mean?

"Careless" means that a person is careless, careless and doesn't care whether he smiles or not. He is too hasty to seriously review himself and often laughs. This is an interesting phrase, which was created by Tianjin phonograph in the 1950s.

The name of that cross talk was "Buy a Monkey", which was popular all over the country in 1950s. The story says that a man named "Ma Daha" is famous for his irresponsibility and carelessness. He wrote an announcement, originally telling him to "go to the northeast corner (Tianjin) to buy 50 boxes of monkey brand soap". However, the flying pen was scrawled and misspelled as "going to the Northeast to buy 50 monkeys".

As a result, Ma Daha's leadership is also bureaucratic, criticizing without looking at the content; Ma Daha's colleagues and subordinates are used to blindly following the work style, and they go on business trips to perform tasks without asking for instructions, making many jokes that make people laugh. For example, I traveled all over China to purchase monkeys; Although all localities are surprised by the bizarre "shopping list" of Tianjin buyers, they still catch monkeys everywhere and deliver them; After the monkeys were shipped back, they came out and made a scene in the department store.

This cross talk was once criticized as "anti-Party", but the word "Ma Daha" quickly spread throughout the country.
