(220205) -- HAIKOU, Feb. 5, 2022 (Xinhua) -- Undated file photo shows Huang Yangwei, a 24-year-old man of the Li ethnic minority, taking part in an event of Li ethnic brocade weavingin south China's Hainan Province. The intangible cultural heritage of the Li brocade can trace back to over 3,000 years ago. In line with the Li tradition, the brocade weaving techniques are only "passed on to women, not to men," as in ancient China, men were supposed to do farm work while women were supposed to weave. In recent years, Hainan education authorities have introduced the traditional brocade to local schools, so that the younger generation can understand and learn about the ethnic culture.TO GO WITH "Across China: Man weaves future for ethnic brocade craftsmanship in China's Hainan" (Xinhua)

In 2007, Wu Xinren, a 28-year-old Miao ethnic youth, ended his ten-year working life in a city and returned, with his 22-year-old wife He Yuqing, to his hometown Wuying Village, a Miao ethnic-minority hamlet that nestles snugly in the towering mountains stretching across the border between south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region and Guizhou Province. Since then, Wu and his wife have attempted to start there a business ranging from farming, transportation to running grocery and home-stay as well as selling local specialties. Their cultural life also flourished as their business gained them a better living condition. Over the years, they have witnessed the development of the village towards rural revitalization.

Fresh bloods including Chen Kehan and Lin Fang are also being injected into the Troupe as Qiong Opera regains its popularity in the county. Chen's family has been working for the Troupe for three generations, while Lin started to learn the opera at age of six.
