From https://www.chinatravel.com/facts/chinese-cricket-culture.htm
"Crickets are a key component of Chinese traditional culture. The tradition of favouring singing insects and fighting crickets has ancient roots and has been handed down throughout the generations to the present day.
This persistent tradition to rise or collect crickets for fights or purely for the enjoyment of their song has deep cultural roots. The cricket is moreover considered as a lucky charm symbolizing the longevity in China. It is the custom to offer one, when someone is moving into a new house, for example or to carry one in a small box to attract happiness. Very appreciated by men of letters, it arouses the poetic inspiration, what explains that they are still on offer, in some calligraphy and painting shops, in small braided bamboo boxes."
