Across China. Livestreaming offers vulnerable new career opportunities in Chongqing
Zou Bin, a 42-year-old livestreamer with some 150,000 followers, has been winning his fans over with his handsome looks and gorgeous voice since 2017; however, very few knew that he was blind in his right eye.
Zou says he has never wanted to take advantage of the disability to draw people's attention online, so when the livestreaming incubation base for the handicapped residents in Yuzhong District, southwest China's Chongqing Municipality reached out to him last year, he declined their offer.
The incubation base continued to extend Zou an invitation, so this year, he agreed to take a look. He was surprised to find how professional they were. "I am a livestreamer myself, so when I see the equipment they got, I know they are for real," said Zou. In contrast, the incubation base offers support for e-commerce livestreaming, whereas, previously, he had focused on entertainment.
