SHENZHEN - Zhao Xiaoyong, a farmer-turned-oil painter, has made over 100,000 replicas of Vincent van Gogh's work over 20 years.
But Zhao had not seen a single work of the Dutch post-impressionist painter until 2014, when he finally saved enough for a trip to the Netherlands.
The trip inspired him to think over his business and create his own works.
