Recently, Li Wu, Counselor of the State Council, along with Wang Baogang, Deputy Director and Researcher of the Institute of Agro-product Processing and Food Nutrition at the Beijing Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Sciences (BAAFS), and other leading experts, visited Henan Jinlejia Enterprise for an on-site research tour. They also attended the strategic cooperation signing ceremony between Jinlejia and the Beijing Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Sciences. Lyu Haiyong, Secretary of the Party Working Committee and Director of the Management Committee of Song County Advanced Manufacturing Development Zone, Deng Lipeng, Director of the County Science and Technology Bureau, and other local leaders accompanied the research tour and attended the event. The successful completion of this event marks a solid step forward in the deep integration of healthy food innovation and industry-academia-research collaboration.

In-depth Frontline Investigation, Precisely Addressing Technical Needs

The research team first conducted an on-site inspection of Jinlejia’s production workshop and R&D center. As a physical enterprise focused on the R&D and production of chicken conditioning products, coated products, and healthy foods, Jinlejia showcased its advanced production processes and strict quality control system to the research team.

During the inspection, Counselor Li Wu, Deputy Director Wang Baogang, and other experts walked through the facilities, frequently stopping to ask questions. They focused on understanding the core products’ process flows, current market layout, and future technical bottlenecks. In-depth discussions were held on current trends in the healthy food industry, nutrition orientation, and innovation directions. The expert team’s “diagnosis” not only broadened Jinlejia’s R&D perspectives but also laid a solid foundation for subsequent precise industry-academia-research collaboration and accelerated transformation of technical achievements.

Strong Alliance Signing, Building a New High Ground for Healthy Foods

At 2:30 PM on March 16, the Jinlejia–Beijing Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Sciences strategic cooperation signing ceremony was held ceremoniously in the first-floor conference room of Jinlejia’s office building. Director Zhang Chao and Researcher Li Fuwei from BAAFS, Yan Xiaoguang, Director of the Development and Construction Department of Song County Development Zone, Lyu Yanan, Director of the Investment Promotion Department, along with Zhao Kaike, Chairman of Jinlejia Group, and Su Tianci, Supervisor and General Manager, attended the ceremony.

In the first phase of the meeting, the expert team from BAAFS had an open exchange with local leaders of Song County, discussing topics such as upgrading local agricultural industries and empowering the regional economy through food processing technology. Subsequently, Su Tianci, General Manager of Jinlejia Group, gave a detailed report to the attending leaders and experts on the background, technical highlights, and future plans of the signed project.

Amid warm applause from the audience, representatives from both sides solemnly signed the strategic cooperation agreement, officially establishing a long-term, close strategic partnership.

Leaders’ Earnest Expectations, Drawing a New Blueprint for Win-Win Cooperation

After the signing, Zhao Kaike, Chairman of Jinlejia Group, delivered a concluding speech. He stated that this “marriage” with a top-tier agricultural research institution represents a major opportunity for Jinlejia to achieve technological leaps and product iteration. The company will go all out to ensure the implementation and effectiveness of the signed project, giving back to society with better healthy food products.

Counselor Li Wu of the State Council spoke highly of Jinlejia’s achievements in deep processing of agricultural products. He emphasized that the healthy food industry is of great importance to national health and holds tremendous potential. He expressed hope that both sides would take this signing as an opportunity to truly “write scientific research papers on the production lines,” driving industrial innovation through technological innovation, and guiding chicken conditioning products toward more nutritious and functional directions.

Lyu Haiyong, Secretary of the Party Working Committee and Director of the Management Committee of Song County Advanced Manufacturing Development Zone, gave the final summary. He pointed out that this industry-academy cooperation is a model for combining investment attraction with talent recruitment in Song County. The Development Zone and the County Science and Technology Bureau will continue to act as “gold medal butlers,” providing the best business environment and most practical work measures to fully support the industry-academia-research cooperation project, helping scientific research achievements take root and bear fruit in Song County.

This strategic cooperation signing is not only a recognition of Jinlejia’s R&D capabilities but also a vivid example of Song County deepening industry-academy collaboration and promoting high-quality development of the county economy. In the future, Jinlejia will join hands with the Beijing Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Sciences to continuously advance on the healthy food track, jointly contributing to the high-quality development of the food industry.
