Returnee enjoys the fruits of his labor

Once, Lyu Wei was a migrant worker who assembled iPhones at a Foxconn factory in Shenzhen in the southern province of Guangdong. Now, he sells homegrown fruit and vegetables nationwide from his startup in Shiyan, his hometown in rural Hubei province, Central China.

"I was born in 1987, and worked for my family's fish business after graduating from junior high school. I started work at Foxconn in 2006," he said.

The 31-year-old vividly remembers working hard at the enormous factory. Initially, he worked on the production line for first-generation iPhones.
