Rural couple wins hearts in videos with bucolic charm


Thanks to the short video boom in China, a rural couple became online celebrities in Baihua town, Yibin, Southwest China's Sichuan province.
Xu Yan and Zhou Xiaolong, who have some 3 million followers on their short video account, capture a lovely rural life. Raising poultry, catching crawfish, foraging for wild edible plants, or sharing sweet moments with each other ... their country-themed short videos have surged to popularity on the internet.
Zhou also plans to set up a specialty processing plant, and sell local specialties through short video platforms to help more people improve their lives. "Now the entrepreneurial environment and living condition in the countryside are getting much better, and we are willing to stay for our own business," Zhou said.
