Crowdfunding turns rural backwater into spectacular art village

I'm Luo Li, the consultant of the Bird Nest Culture Center. I'm starting a project here called Ice and Art City.

It's planned for the winter Olympics. It's difficult to find asponsor. Investors from Beijing and Tianjin came here before but rejected us because of the bad conditions. They couldn't predict when they would see a profit. I can understand their position.

I'm a cultural worker, not a businessperson. We pay more attentionto spirit than money. If we only think of the budget we will compromise our vision to money. I'll try my best to find other resources. Borrowing a hundred thousand. I told investors if I fail, I will pay back the money. Most people believe that culture is abstract,
but in fact it's a power, even a conviction. So you really believe that your own direction is correct. Anyone can leave this battlefield, except for me. I hope the budget can come from investors and also crowdfunding.

I found crowdfunding to be very interesting. So we settled on this method of fundraising. Look, these are great, we can sell them. The lights, glass, wood and curtains come from crowdfunding. It has a universal value. If you help one person to solve a problem, then you can help others too. This is our favorite aunt. The feeling is hope.
