Taohuawu Farming Notes

Shen Xinghe, 25 years old, has been a popular actress for ten years. At the peak of her career, she was tired of the work environment and needed to adjust herself. Late at night, she looked through the photos on her phone of her childhood in her hometown of Taolin, and made a decision that shocked everyone - to terminate the contract, quit the industry, and return to her hometown. She returned to Taohuawu, deep in western Hunan, a small mountain village with only thirty households. Here there is the old house left by my grandfather, an abandoned orchard, and wild peach blossoms all over the mountains and plains. Starting from making beds and sweeping dust, she learned to grow vegetables, graft fruit trees, keep bees to make honey, and make peach blossom cakes. Her former agent became her "product manager" and made a short video of her rural life that unexpectedly became popular. Friends in the circle come to relax, and word of mouth spreads after being cured. Gradually, Taohuawu has become a secret garden in the entertainment industry - frustrated screenwriters finish writing their scripts here, faded singers find inspiration here, and anchors who have been bullied by the Internet rebuild their confidence here. Three years later, Taohuawu became a "utopia" integrating an ecological farm, a spiritual station, and a cultural and creative workshop. Shen Xinghe did not return to the entertainment industry, but his friends all regarded Taohuawu as a charging station.
