Jingdezhen is renowned worldwide for its porcelain, attracting many young artisans to gather here.
Cao Lang and Hu Yunyue, a 36-year-old couple, are among the representatives who explore business opportunities and hold on to their artistic dreams here.
In 2013, after graduating with a major in fine arts, the couple came to Jingdezhen and devoted themselves to porcelain painting. They established their own studio in 2014. Their porcelain works frequently appear at various art exhibitions and have been recognized by the market. Benefiting from Jingdezhen's well-developed industrial chain, the couple closely followed the e-commerce trend and started their own tea set brand in 2020, delving into the online market and providing customized services. In the future, they plan to build a high-quality brand with their personal imprint.
Jingdezhen is home to the couple with artistic dreams. They have not only won the market with their skills, but also gradually realized their dreams through persistence. (Xinhua/Zhou Mi)
