Fei Yuliang began to introduce his private collections to the public at the encouragement of a friend. He has been bringing his collections to China for display since 2009.

"I put several antiques in my suitcase when I visit," he says.

Fei Yuliang also asks his family members and students to bring antiques back to China when they return. China Customs welcomes overseas antiques home, he says.

In recent years, Fei Yuliang has been working on building a museum to exhibit his collections in his hometown, Yixing, Jiangsu province, which is home to purple-clay pottery and famous painters.

"Yixing is a city with rich culture and history," he says.

Fei Yuliang hopes such exhibitions can help people better understand culture and history.
