Lianzhang Village, Lianjiangkou Town, Yingde City, Guangdong Province, located in the mountainous area of northern Guangdong, was once known as the "Land of the Great Miasmas".
In October 2018, General Secretary Xi Jinping took a car along the rugged mountain road to the home of Lu Yihe, a poor household in Lianzhang Village, and talked with him about the poverty alleviation plan.
The kind words made Lu Yihe feel warm, and he was determined to work hard to get rid of poverty and become rich.
With the implementation of the poverty alleviation policy, Lianzhang Village, once a provincially designated poverty-stricken village, has undergone tremendous changes.
Lu Yi and his family have also undergone earth-shaking changes.
"Happiness is created by one's own efforts," he said.
