Disney and Ub Iwerks soon set up their own company, but hardly made enough money to get by. The business went into failure in just one month. Then due to a variety of reasons,Disney's second business failed again. He had nowhere to live an little money for food. These didn't discourage Disney. At 22, he went to Hollywood.

C People perform graceful moves, all while standing on a bamboo strip in the river. You may think it's a scene from an art movie. but actually it is a form of intangible cultural heritage: bamboo drifting（独竹漂）. Bamboo drifting dated back to over 2.000 years ago in the Chishui River area of Guizhou. During the Qin Dynasty,the Bozhou district of Zunyi city was known for its high-quality nanmu. It was in great demand by the royal court more than 2.000 kilometers to the north. With no transportation along the Chishui River， people had to stand on one log（原木）to drift down the river.
