Zhai Diancheng is from Anhui province. He used to be a carpenter and then owner of a textile mill. He lost almost all his fortune in the latest international financial crisis and after a fire in his factory. Half a year ago, he and his son jointly entered the profession of Designated Driving.

But the son cannot still work these days. He has a broken leg bone from an accident that requires him to stay at home for months.

He said his decision to enter the Designated Driving profession was to set an example for his children, one that he can pick up himself wherever he falls.
