The Chinese prefer “a house surrounded by bamboos”. Please look for the daily necessities and handcrafts made of bamboo in the video clip. The Chinese also prefer “meals with bamboo shoots”. What are bamboo shoots? How bamboo shoots are grown, dug and prepared? How do the farmers in Hongcun Village manage to put spring bamboo shoots on market several months earlier than usual to profit more? How does socialist new countryside appeal to young people? What does a professional countryside operator do? How does countryside operation bring profits to farmers, particularly women and senior citizens? Mei Kai from Ukraine has come to the hometown of her first teacher of Chinese, Miss. REN Yin. They haven’t seen each other for years! Miss. REN and Mei Kai will take you on a tour in the countryside, enjoying the slow-pace life there and experiencing the advances it has made. I believe this video lesson will help you understand why Miss. REN was willing to leave a big city and start an undertaking in the countryside.
