Before today’s guest on Hack the Entrepreneur built a successful company in China, he was just a wandering 20-year-old backpacker, only looking for an adventure.
He planned on making a brief stop in the city of Beijing to earn some funds, see the Great Wall, and move on to his next adventure.
Turns out, that trip would do more than just earn him enough funds to travel; it would lead him to become a pillar of Beijing’s pop culture. He is the founder and Creative Dictator of China’s first streetwear clothing brand, Plastered T-Shirts.
