At the “Amphibious Coffee Lab” in Zhaoxiang, the proprietor Fan Mengmeng, who returned from studying in Germany, uses fluent German and English to open the door to Chinese coffee for guests who have come from afar.
Joern from Germany and TAN from New Zealand came drawn by its reputation and experienced the distinctive Yunnan coffee at a salon.
Fan, who has worked deeply in the Yunnan producing region for four years and authored the book “Yunnan Coffee,” explained to everyone the charm of China’s core coffee-producing regions.
Upon learning that Dehong, the coffee origin, is a sister city of Qingpu, the foreign guests conceived the idea of visiting Yunnan. Today this little shop has become a warm space for Chinese-foreign exchange around China’s native coffee culture.
“Here, Foreigners Fell for Yunnan Coffee (I Dialogue with the World in Zhaoxiang)” is an outstanding work from the sixth “Stories Around Us” micro-film (short-video) online collection. From May to June this year, Wenhui Video launched the sixth “Stories Around Us” micro-film (short-video) online collection, built around the theme “Stories Around Us,” inviting netizens to tell the stories around them and imagine a better life under the 15th Five-Year Plan. The call set up special “Shanghainese short-video” and “AI short-video” tracks; by June 30 it had received more than 100 entries.
Wenhui Video is a leading humanities short-video platform created by Wenhui Daily, a major national humanities newspaper. The Wenhui Video “Youth Camp” will build a short-video learning, exchange and showcase platform for young people, providing a stage for short-video creators.
