"I hope to introduce Fujian from a Taiwan perspective through stand-up comedy, sharing Fujian's cuisine and lifestyle with Taiwan youth to help them understand the way of life in the Chinese mainland," Chou said. "There are many policies to support and nurture artistic projects, providing young people with great development opportunities."
In 2018, he began a doctoral degree in drama and film at Xiamen University. During the process, he established a cultural communication company that works with rural vitalization, art exhibits, children's drama education, and elderly education.
