电商在线直播在中国走红 - 2019年01月18日

For Beijing native Qu Baojian, live streaming online became an adjunct to his hobby of breeding plants.
After retiring two years ago, Qu took up growing and selling succulents on the Taobao e-commerce platform. Then he began live-streaming on Taobao for an hour every day to show others how to cultivate the plants.
His little business currently covers more than 1,000 types of plants, all grown in three greenhouses in suburban Beijing. “Online streaming lets viewers get a better idea of how to breed these plants,” he explained.
