Grand Opening · Setting Sail

Li Yifei, Secretary of the Longsheng County Party Committee, announced the official launch of the project. Together with Chairman Zhang Baotang, Longsheng Green Vine General Manager Long Weian, and Sweet Vine Biotechnology General Manager Yin Zhenhua, he proceeded to the feeding area and slowly poured the fresh luo han guo from the basket into the production line’s feed hopper. As the fruits cascaded into the equipment with a “clatter,” the brand-new machinery sprang to life instantly. The conveyor belt ran smoothly, carrying this “sweet raw material” from the mountains of Longsheng to the subsequent processing stages. The crisp hum of the machinery intertwined with the cheers of the crowd—a celebration of the project’s launch and a symbol of a new beginning for Longsheng lo han guo, marking its transition from the mountains to the industrial chain and from a local specialty to the global market.

Subsequently, Chairman Zhang Baotang invited all attending leaders and guests to tour the production line, offering them a close-up look at the advanced technology and production capacity of the Phase II project.
