I was born in Shibadong Village, Huayuan County in Xiangxi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture of Hunan in 1996. The village,boasting (有) green mountains and clear water,once suffered poverty,distancing us from a welloff life.

In 2013, the idea of targeted poverty alleviation was raised in our village and spread to the rest of the country. Since then, this poverty-stricken village has made a change and became well-known.

Back in 2015, when I was about to take the College Entrance Exam, I hoped to major in art as a child who had always been enthusiastic about singing. However, my father passed away at the critical stage of my exam, which added to the economic burden of my poor family. Fortunately, the targeted poverty alleviation policies enabled my mother to afford my education. I eventually had my dream come true—being accepted into Zhejiang Conservatory of Music,and paid the tuition with student loans.

The colorful college life opened a new door for me, a kid from a Miao village in west Hunan. I studied, practiced and opened my mind with great eagerness. After graduating in 2019, I found a job in Changsha. However, I was so concerned about the development of Shibadong Village that I always dreamed about it. Therefore, I decided to quit my job and start my own business in my hometown.I made up my mind to help villagers sell local specialties via livestream marketing.

I always receive praise for the scenery of my village when I'm doing livestream shows,and I have to say that the village indeed changed a lot,in a better way.The per capita(人均的) income of the village rocketed to 15,000 yuan from less than 1,700 yuan in 2013. Villagers are not only running agritainment (農(nóng)家樂) facilities, but also enjoying dividends from kiwi fruit orchards and mineral water business.As a resident in the village,I feel very happy and proud.

Today, as more and more young people are returning to the village, I feel gladder about my choice.Shibadong Village is a big stage for me.I believe that thriving countryside will lead to a thriving nation. The people of my generation will definitely inject vitality (活力)to Shibadong Village,and contribute our own strength on the path to a prosperous life.
