Selling clothes via livestreaming was not an easy work. At the beginning, Wu only sold three pieces after livestreaming for two hours.
In order to earn more money to repay her debt, Wu set a goal to sell 100 pieces of clothes in six hours every day. Moreover, after broadcasting work, Wu helps her mother to package orders to send to her customers.
As more and more people started liking her livestreaming, Wu's business began picking up. Now, she has rented a space, and can sell 700 pieces of fur clothing a day.

has become a video star with over one million views – thanks to the way he resembles Buddha, Jilin Daily reports.
Little Pebble was born in Changchun, the capital of Northeast China's Jilin province. When he was 14 months old, he was diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome, a condition caused by kidney damage.
In an effort to cover his mounting medical bills, Little Pebble’s parents spent their savings of 300,000 yuan and sold their house.
The medicine that Little Pebble was prescribed affected his hormones, leading him to grow to 35kg. Some say that Little Pebble has now taken the appearance of a sitting Buddha.

Unable to attend kindergarten like other children his age due to fears of infection, Little Pebble was left lonely at home, playing with toys by himself. He seldom spoke or laughed.

But in 2017 his parents posted some video clips of him eating dinner, which caught people’s attention. Seeing the online reaction, Little Pebble felt that he had made friends and he decided to start uploading videos.
Now his videos have hit one million views each and Little Pebble can start earning money from them.
Although his condition has improved, his medicine costs approximately 7,000 yuan per month, which places a strain on his family’s finances. So Little Pebble wants to help.
