China News Service, Fuzhou, January 7 (Yan Xulin Chunyin) "2020 is really not easy, especially when we do homestays, but the Fuzhou-Pingtan railway opens, and Pingtan tourism has new opportunities. I plan to increase it to 10 in 2021. A room." Wang Shengying, a Taiwanese youth and homestay operator in Pingtan, Fujian, told China News Agency reporters his New Year wishes on the 7th.

　　At the end of 2019, Wang Shengying, a native of Changhua, Taiwan, received a marriage certificate from Lin Xiaolan, a girl from Pingtan Beigang Village.

In May 2020, Beigang "Youmi" B&B opened by the two.

Just after the New Year, the two are busy preparing for a warm wedding in the stone house.

　　“We have been investing in rebuilding the stone house in Pingtan’s old home into a homestay after we got the certificate. The decoration process is also the period of our newlyweds.” Wang Shengying said with a smile. Thinking back to those running-in, I am happy."

　　He told reporters an example. For example, he once insisted that the bathroom should be larger to facilitate parent-child travel. Parents assisted the children in bathing. "The loss of the wife is that the original 6 rooms were reduced to 4, but she finally accepted my opinion. ."

　　In Fujian Province, which is separated from Taiwan by the sea, like Wang Shengying and his wife, it is not uncommon for Taiwanese youths to "buck the trend" looking for business and outlets in the post-epidemic period.

They open homestays, sell coffee, and sell jewellery. Most of them are engaged in "small business", but they have to tide over difficulties with their own "secret recipes".

　　Located in Sanfang Qixiang, Fuzhou, the beautiful guest cultural and creative settlement is the entrepreneurial base for Fujian and Taiwan youths and the entrepreneurial base for Taiwanese youths in Fuzhou.

The park covers an area of ​​about 3,000 square meters, incubating dozens of cross-strait cultural and creative projects such as Taiwanese design hand-made exhibitions, art and cultural exhibitions, and more than 1,000 Taiwanese youths have visited here.

　　Here, 36-year-old Lin Dongyue and a mainland partner jointly run a "Tai Ba" cafe, and at the same time cook a "Taiwan Bookstore" with a collection of more than 700 Taiwanese editions.

　　Lin Dongyue, who lives in Taipei, was originally from Fuzhou. He “speaks Fuzhou dialect and grew up eating Fuzhou dishes”. He loves lychee meat and stir-fried double crisp.

In 2010, with the support of his family, Lin Dongyue carried a large bag of Taiwanese white peach oolong tea and milk powder to Fuzhou and opened a milk tea shop.

　　In Weiike’s coffee shop, Lin Dongyue and his mainland partner had discussions and "supported" each other.

"He loves coffee and I love milk tea, and we cheer each other up." Lin Dongyue said, he has a secret formula when faced with difficulties, "I will make myself a cup of whole sugar milk tea, and it will be good if I sweeten it."

　　Lin Dongyue most hopes that the epidemic will pass as soon as possible, the cross-strait "mini three links" will be restarted as soon as possible, and small trade with Taiwan will be smooth. "I now bring tea from Taiwan to the region for more than half a year. It is really hard."

　　Lin Juanhua, who sells beads from Taiwan's ethnic minorities at a small counter in Weimei Ke, is a land partner.

After marrying to Yilan, Taiwan 20 years ago, Lin Juanhua opened a store to sell Taiwanese minority jewelry; now, her hand-made glass beads are very popular in the local area.

　　In recent years, she has joined hands with her relatives in Fuzhou to open up sales on e-commerce platforms such as Taobao, and was invited by Weimeike to explore the market in Fuzhou.

She said frankly that during the epidemic, her small business in cultural and creative industries relied on Taobao, but sales increased. "E-commerce finds more sources of customers and let us share the mainland market."

　　Zhang Zhaorui, the CEO of the Weimei Youth Creative Base from Taichung, provides "trial and error opportunities" for Taiwanese interns who want to work in Fuzhou, or provides "one square space" to display their works, or invites them to settle in the base, "to relieve their hesitation. ".

On January 5th, the first Taiwanese intern he introduced formally joined the Weimei Youth Innovation Base.

　　Zhang Zhaorui, who once studied for a Ph.D. at Beijing Sport University, also hopes to create cross-strait event IP, organize cross-strait comprehensive events such as basketball, football, baseball, softball, and "make the two sides move."
