Meet Lang Huichen and Wu Fei, two former city dwellers who left behind their urban lives to launch a unique venture in the countryside—the "Hello! Fellow Villager" in Xiangyang, Hubei Province. More than just a coffee shop, the cafe has blossomed into a cultural hub connecting urban and rural life. It is also a job creator and a beacon of hope for rural revitalization. From employing local staff, including a barista with disabilities, to tutoring left-behind children, Lang and Wu are demonstrating how small businesses can brew a brighter future for China's countryside.
