In Li Yanni's office in Qujiang, Xi'an, and in the exhibition hall and factory area in Changan District, these very artistic things are placed everywhere.

You may not think that these exquisite things are made of ordinary sand.

She and her husband not only made sand into art, but also became a business.

According to Li Yanni, she herself

I did a lot of work after graduation.

And focus on the sand sculpture industry is entirely due to the recognition of the current husband and a chance.

Li Yanni's husband, he Yan, graduated from Xi'an Academy of Fine Arts.

In 2006, she and he Yan participated in the first international sand sculpture festival in Shahu, Ningxia.

Li Yanni said: "the unique sand sculpture works can not be preserved for a long time. This is the charm of the sand sculpture, but it is also a pity."

So they have the idea: if we can reduce the size of the sand sculpture, make it hard and firm, and make it a souvenir, how good it is! They think it contains business opportunities, so they decide to practice this idea.

"Just started in Ningxia."

Li Yanni introduced, "the first business is only 20 yuan, but that is our first income."

4 years, but the establishment of a company is a matter of nearly two years.

Let Li Yanni decide to change from a small factory to an enterprise. It was also occasionally heard from a friend that the state had policies to support college students' pioneering loans.

So in 2009, she took part in the training course held by Shaanxi university student entrepreneurship base.

Later, she supported the provincial human resources and social security system.

The conditions of the loan, one by one, demanded and perfected herself. Finally, she succeeded in lending 400 thousand yuan, and the solution to the venture capital quickly helped her to start growing.

"The loan is one year, but after the repayment is made, the state returns 50% interest, so the interest is relatively low."

Li Yanni has "heartfelt gratitude" for the state support policy.

For entrepreneurship experience, Li Yanni said: at the beginning of entrepreneurship, we should not be careful in making money.
