Hua is presenting new proposals at this year's NPC. They are a pension project for rural China's elderly, the standardization of products sold online and the promotion of rural culture through livestreams hosted by well-known cultural-heritage practitioners.
"There is a great room to expand e-commerce in rural areas. What we care about is beyond profit. Behind the scenes of the shiny world of e-commerce, we want more people to learn about rural China. More people will return to their hometowns to make changes," Hua adds.
