Everyone has a Trump impersonation of varying accuracy up their sleeve.

Go on, ask your workmate and you’ll see an attempt.

Apparently you don’t even have to be any good to crack the big time, because over in China Li Liangwei is proving pretty popular.

Like many great ideas, it all started with a boozy dinner. Here’s TIME:

“I was kind of upset, so I put down my glass and rose abruptly, and with a sweep of my hand announced, ‘I have the say here!’ Upon that, one of my friends said, ‘You look like Mr. Trump, President of America.’ I had no idea who that was.”

Still, that epiphany transformed Li’s life, catapulting him from the retired editor of an arts magazine in southern China’s Hunan province to his nation’s leading impressionist of the U.S. Commander in Chief. Today, Li receives several hundred dollars a gig to drum up crowds at commercial events, touting products or simply waving through the sunroof of a Porsche dragged by a man using his teeth. “People always say I resemble Trump not just in appearance, but far more important, in temperament and spirit,” says Li. “The temperament and character quality of a great man are not built in a day.”

Meet Li, the best China has to offer:

It appears that much like the Donald, he’ll do anything to make a buck.

Happy First Thursday, chinas.
