Many disabled residents in Huichang county, Jiangxi province have seen significant improvements in their quality of life — some earn millions while others secure stable jobs and start families. This progress can all be traced back to the efforts of one official.

In 2005, Wen Dongming, a commerce bureau official who knew that his hometown relatives struggled to sell their high-quality, low-priced navel oranges, decided to open a Taobao store to supplement their income. His first attempt was a resounding success and the oranges sold out, according to Wen.

"I felt relieved and proud at the time," Wen said. He then began helping more people sell their oranges online.
