"In the work of poverty alleviation, our village has many innovative ways and methods. Nowadays, my focus has shifted to how to consolidate and expand the achievements of poverty alleviation and effectively connect with rural revitalization. Li Jun, a deputy to the National People's Congress and secretary of the party branch of Xiuyun Village in Cangxi County, Guangyuan City, Sichuan Province, believes that the introduction of new forces, especially migrant workers and students with the potential for innovation and entrepreneurship, returning to their hometowns to start a business is one of the ways.

In fact, Deputy Li Jun is a typical example of returning to his hometown to start a business. "How can youth be more meaningful? If young people who go out of the village can change the face of their hometown, it is a very fulfilling thing. He gave up his job in Chengdu and returned to Xiuyun Village as the secretary of the party branch, leading everyone to get rid of poverty and get rich.

Last year, Deputy Li Jun took advantage of his research and visits in the village to shoot many videos based on the production and life of the people. Deputy Li Jun also used the network platform to do live broadcasting of local specialties in the village.

Deputy Li Jun said: Rural revitalization is inseparable from fresh blood. Deputy Li Jun suggested that a policy of benefiting farmers should be introduced according to local conditions, focusing on supporting agricultural professional managers and modern young farmers, so that they can take root and become "new professional farmers."
