Hey fam, ever heard how Xinjiang cotton hit by tariffs and blacklists actually got stronger? 🤔✨ That’s the real-deal comeback story we need today.
In the latest Wei Talk session, host Tian Wei sits down with Marjorie Yang of the Esquel Group, a top textile and apparel manufacturer. When some long-time clients suddenly vanished overnight, Yang didn’t waste time asking 'Why me?' Instead, she flipped the script: 'What can we do?' 🚀
Her mantra? 'When struck by a poisoned arrow, don’t ask who shot it — find the cure.' This bold attitude helped Esquel not only weather the storm but spark a total rebirth in Xinjiang’s cotton industry.
So, next time you’re rocking your fave kurta or baju kebaya, remember there’s more to that cotton than meets the eye: a story of grit, innovation, and community spirit. 🌾❤️
Xinjiang’s message to the world is clear: Hardship isn’t the end — it’s just the beginning of something new. Ready to share this vibe? 🔄
