The factory can produce about 1,000 handmade violins per year, with sales of about 7 million yuan, Chang said. "I will invite music teachers from first-tier cities like Beijing to provide training and guidance for local children, in order to promote music education in my hometown, letting more local children get in touch with musical instruments," he said. "I hope that in the future, we cannot only produce masterpieces, but also nurture some talent in music."
