Since 1991, Hou has been dedicated to creating porcelain carving art.
"This is a handicraft that needs patience and can produce delicate and distinctive work with rich cultural characteristics," he said, adding that he was very happy that he could teach handicrafts for younger generations.
In recent years, Hou has organized courses to provide free training for teachers and students, to enrich their holiday experience and promote Chinese folk porcelain carving skills.
