Even after graduating from Jingdezhen Ceramic University in 2006, she didn't think about inheriting the family craft and became a saleswoman at a ceramic studio in Beijing back then.
After two years of selling ceramics, Cai was fascinated by the blue-and-white ware.
She quit her job and returned to her hometown in late 2008, starting a two-year learning experience of painting blue-and-white porcelain items.
In 2012, Cai established her own ceramics-making company and two years later, she built the ceramics-themed brand China Story.
