China News Service, Jilin, October 24 (Reporter Shi Hongyu) The autumn harvest has lasted for more than 20 days, fatigue can not stop Xiao Wentao's enthusiasm for entrepreneurship.

Recently, he worked in corn fields of more than 20 hectares for more than 10 hours a day, and then video-connected three fellow villagers in Russia late at night.

  In Shuangyintong Village, Xihe Town, Shulan City, Jilin Province, this is a well-known entrepreneurial team returning home from a foreign country.

The connection is "official". Xiao Wentao, 52, "reported" the breeding project co-founded by several people in the village and other projects he inspected.

  Xiao Wentao introduced that he had worked in Russia for 20 years and was responsible for operating large farms there.

Today, the foreign migrant worker chooses to return to his hometown to start his own business, and the three partners will also return at a certain time, so that everyone can make this business bigger together.

  According to a recent official data released by Jilin Province, a total of 95,400 migrant workers in the province have returned to their hometowns to start businesses, accounting for 4.4% of the total number of migrant workers, an increase of 41,400 from 2016, directly driving more than 400,000 jobs.

  The "Russian migrant worker team" in Shuangyintong Village has returned one after another in recent years, which is the cornerstone of the above-mentioned changes.

According to Wang Ye, secretary of the village party branch, there was a wave of national labor in the village in the 1990s, with the largest number reaching hundreds of people, and 4 out of 10 people can speak a few words of Russian.

  In the area of ​​Vladivostok, Russia, villagers brought their knowledge of black soil cultivation, where they grew food and vegetables.

Not only did they get the "first pot of gold" in their lives, some young people also had "transnational marriages" there.

  The villagers also created and harvested the non-governmental friendship between China and Russia.

On certain festivals in the two countries, villagers in a foreign country will drink vodka, while the other party will eat dumplings stuffed with sauerkraut.

  In addition, the two sides have also set up a bridge of communication in trade circulation and tourism.

Xiao Wentao said that when the other party participates in China's commodity fairs or travels in China, he will take the initiative to help coordinate, "After all, the relationship for so many years is there."

  After Xiao Wentao returned to his hometown, these exchanges were still there.

A few years ago, the other party also came to his home as a guest.

  According to the official introduction of Shulan City, along with the continuous promotion of the rural revitalization plan in Jilin Province, in recent years, local foreign workers are moving their careers back to their hometowns, and returning to their hometowns to start businesses has become a trend.

  "There are many opportunities at home, especially in the agricultural field." Xiao Wentao said that the production and breeding of green agricultural and sideline products are his promising projects.

Combining the business and negotiation experience that he and his partners have learned in Russia, they also plan to expand their own farm and grow organic green vegetables.

  In addition to opportunities, this entrepreneurial team also attaches great importance to rural sentiments.

The old brick factory in the village was built in the 1970s and bears the feelings of the villagers.

With the development of society, the brick factory gradually declined.

  Xiao Wentao and three partners each invested 500,000 yuan to contract the brick factory, and built a breeding farm without changing the structure of the building.

"Keeping these buildings is also to leave some memories in the village."

  Recently, this entrepreneurial team is discussing the "stalks to meat" policy implemented by Jilin Province.

Xiao Wentao as the team's talker, in addition to busy with the autumn harvest, he also has to contact the cattle purchase and other links.

Next spring, the cattle-raising project will be implemented.

  The homestay project in Nanyangtun, Sihe Village, a small town tens of kilometers away from Shuangyintong Village, has been completed.

This is a well-known "Russian Village". Almost every family is doing business in Moscow, Russia, involved in clothing, footwear, haberdashery, catering, freight, tourism and other industries.

  Starting in 2017, villagers who went to Russia for business took advantage of the "beautiful countryside" policy of Jilin Province to return home to create "Russian style tourism."

For a time, the leisure, picking, "exotic tourism" and other industries here attract many tourists.

  The local village cadre said that the autumn harvest was the snow season, and this year's ice and snow tourism is also worth looking forward to.

  Data show that by the end of 2020, Jilin Province has built 149 migrant workers returning to their hometowns to start businesses, and 24 counties have been identified as provincial-level migrant workers returning to their hometowns to start businesses.

  Xiao Wentao believes that now is the time to do a big business in his hometown.
