From catching the fast train of “Internet +” to aiming at webcast, her booming business is inseparable from hard study and systematic training. Originally, in order to help practitioners master new skills faster and solve the problem of live delivery of “what to broadcast and how to broadcast”, Fuzhou Human Resources and Social Security Bureau arranged a special fund of 10 million yuan for skill improvement and carried out the training of 10000 Internet marketers.
