Returnee grows successful business
Like many of his peers in Longnan, Gansu province, Jia Zhao left his hometown to become a migrant worker after he failed to gain entry to a university.
However, while the vast majority of those young people opt to stay away from Waina, a village deep in the mountains that is so isolated it has no mobile phone reception, the 28-year-old decided to return. Now, he devotes himself to the cultivation of olive trees.
In 2011, Jia followed in the footsteps of many senior high school graduates by traveling to Guangdong province and working on the production line at an electronics factory.
