A Beacon of Chinese Industry: It All Started with Pinduoduo's Tearjerker Ads

Lin Yi was reborn and transmigrated, inheriting a tiny knockoff factory and over five million yuan in debt.

Then he got to work at a furious pace, making cheap products from cheap parts.

299-yuan tablets, 399-yuan flat-screen TVs, 399-yuan washing machines.

A customer on PindaoDao commented: “Thanks to Mr. Lin Yi, people like us in the mountain regions can buy products that are both cheap and good.”

Everyone was moved to tears. “He’s no junk king. He’s a true entrepreneur who serves the people.”
