While relying on their own hands to increase income, they have broadened their horizons, liberated their minds, and got rid of their ideological dependence. It has also changed the past that some poor people were resigned, passive and contented with the status quo. The situation has realized the transition from'I want to get rid of poverty' to'I want to get rid of poverty', which fundamentally stimulated their endogenous motivation." Ou Qingping said, "Poverty alleviation must first help aspirations, and employment is the best way to help aspirations and wisdom. the way."
