Cold chain for 20 years

Chapter 165 Our Alliance

In the east of Mingyuan City, an old-fashioned residential building.

Two four-story houses stand opposite each other, connected by a zigzag staircase in the middle, and most of the residents are elderly people.It is very quiet here, and some people keep birds in cages, making extremely crisp sounds.

The old-fashioned wooden windows pushed horizontally, the sun-shaped glass frames, the cracks on the wooden railings, and the wires that are not too close, all look old and mottled.There are towels and clothes on the fence on each floor, and a lot of daily sundries are piled up in the corridors. The old man who collects cardboard boxes and plastics rides a tricycle past silently.

Master Pang lives on the first floor. There are two pots of ivy on the left and right outside the door. The pots and the ground are almost growing together, and the branches and leaves look like they have just been pruned.

It was getting late and the door was not closed, Hu Shutong knocked lightly with milk and fruit.

Master Pang, wearing an apron, came out of the kitchen and looked at Hu Shutong with a smile.

"Sit casually first, pour the tea yourself, and the food will be ready."

Hu Shutong put down his things, and walked slowly in the house. This is a very small house, with a bedroom, a study room, a living room that can only accommodate a coffee table and TV, and a small kitchen of five or six square meters.

The photo is the only decoration in the house. The framed photo on the coffee table is a photo of Master Pang and his wife when they were young.When he was less than 40 years old, his wife died of illness, and he had no children.

The photos posted on the wall have a strong sense of time when you look around. There are group photos of him standing in front of the first batch of fruit cold storage in the 80s, and there are also photos of him going abroad to inspect the processing workshop in the 90s, and photos of various companies during research. After entering the millennium, there are photos of various symposiums and research on special topics.

What surprised Hu Shutong the most was the photos of Tongxing's groundbreaking and opening ceremony in early 2004.

There are fifty or sixty sheets densely packed around the wall of the hut. Hu Shutong was fascinated by it, and walked along it, as if it was a silhouette of the cold chain in these years.

Not long after, the food was brought to the table, and Hu Shutong stepped forward to make arrangements together.Only then did Hu Shutong notice that the candy figure standing on the table was exactly that year's Lantern Festival, a horse with wings.

The tableware is that kind of short and small jar, which is full of steamed vegetables, including eggplant, beans and mashed potatoes, mixed with a plate of cucumbers and poured some spiced peanuts from the bag.

Immediately afterwards, Master Pang walked around the room, and finally took out a bottle of wine from the bottom of the TV cabinet, and there were two small bull's-eye cups in the wine box.

"Teacher, do you still want to drink?"

"The doctor said, you can drink a little when you are in a good mood."

Hu Shutong curled his lips, he had never heard any doctor give such a warning.

"Teacher, have you lived here all these years?"

The smaller the room, the more certain things can be magnified, and the more Zhang Shiyou is flabbergasted, the more it makes people feel a little sad.

"Yeah, I have been asked to move many times, but this is our wedding room, the place is quiet, and it is safe to stay here. Think about it, I haven't had a visitor for more than ten years. Come, eat and talk, taste it I dare not say that my steamed vegetables are number one in the world, at least Mingjiang is number one."

While talking, Master Pang sandwiched a piece of eggplant and a piece of mutton together and put them in Hu Shutong's bowl.Hu Shutong ate it in his mouth, but for some reason, he couldn't taste any flavor.

Upon seeing this, Master Pang picked up the wine cup, "It's better to have a drink."

Hu Shutong took a sip, while Master Pang sipped it.

"It's rare to have this month's rest, so that people can calm down and think about the future. It just so happens that you are also here in Mingjiang. Let's discuss something together."

"You say."

"The cold chain network has been established for some time, but from the perspective of communication and publicity, the virtual platform is still somewhat limited. It has advantages in information integration and dynamic release, but the offline arrangement is insufficient. Possess the mobilization ability of a physical organization. Since the development of the industry, the most important thing is the national network, and self-clearing is the biggest obstacle at present."

Hu Shutong kept nodding, and Master Pang said again: "The development of the cold chain is not much different from my expectation. We need to change from strengthening ourselves to working together for a win-win situation. To give the most realistic example, if Tongxing and Nanjiao reach a cooperation, It is still not enough to rely on the two of you alone. If the industry wants to make rapid progress, it must pursue a lower-cost global cold chain. And its answer is to put more people into an alliance."

"To tell you the truth, when I went to Europe in 03, I had the idea of ​​forming our own cold chain alliance. , integrated into a system to form the most authoritative organization in the industry, which can cooperate with the state to formulate and introduce policies, and can actually start planning the rural dining table."

I still remember that in the car on the European trip that year, Zhao Xugang hinted and hinted to himself, but at that time there was no homosexuality in the world, and Hu Shutong was just a junior expert.But today, the situation is very different.

Teacher Pang nodded and said: "Since the rise of e-commerce, the cold chain has not kept up with the pace of the times. I have experienced this matter many times. There is such a demand related to the industry. The premise of going out is that each company can Jump out. This matter must establish its overall planning for the industry from the very beginning, and it must send a signal to the entire industry. If you want to move towards spring, you must first reach out, so once it is done, the movement must not be small.”

Master Pang's tone was calm, but Hu Shutong felt great energy. This old man in front of him has gone deep into the grassroots, led the problem, perfected the quarantine regulations, and donated patents for free. He is everywhere and omnipotent.For so many years, I have been down-to-earth, and I have followed his simple life motto, the road has to be taken step by step, but I have never heard from him that "movement should not be small"!
In Hu Shutong's heart, Master Pang is the helmsman of the industry. His judgment and vision, his guidance and persuasion are all the wealth of the industry.

"Our alliance will issue requirements under one system, gather the strength of everyone, and make things real."

"In our alliance, each family can contact dozens of companies, and the southernmost can be connected to the northernmost. Our alliance should follow the norms that should have been followed long ago, and we must also formulate norms that everyone knows but dare not take the lead!"

After only drinking two cups of white wine, Master Pang's face was flushed, and seeing him waving his big hands, it seemed as if thousands of people were holding him in his arms.

With such a determined demeanor, majestic force shrouded this small corner, as if from this moment, Professor Pang had penetrated himself into a rhythm.The smell of alcohol also became stronger at this time.

"It's different, look at the old photos of this room, where we came from is its meaning. From now on, there will be no clenbuterol, no black heart meat, no golden worm disease, no Sudan red cancer-causing eggs, no In addition to high anti-corrosion and high additives, that is its meaning.”

"There are no more leaves like leaves on the roadside, no more unsalable vegetables like silt in the field, no more vegetables that cannot be seen in the vegetable market without watering them. These are hard-earned, which is its meaning!"
