In Pu'er, change is unfolding in real time. Tea fields stretch across the hills, alongside a growing coffee industry. Life in the countryside is not slowing down – it's moving forward in new directions. The film Coffee or Tea was shot on Jingmai Mountain, telling a story of young people returning to the countryside and starting over. Today, more and more young people are making the same choice – going back home and building new possibilities between tea and coffee.

From screen to reality, the countryside here is being seen differently. Join CGTN Digital reporter Wang Tao in Pu'er to witness these changes on the ground.
