Pet life ranking: modern "pet-loving" way can shorten the life of dogs by 6 years.

Original sixiang studio sixiang studio

In recent years, more and more urbanites choose to keep pets as companions. After a busy day’s work, it is undoubtedly a "charging moment" for pet owners to be greeted by pets at home, and the fatigue is instantly forgotten.

However, there are also many people who also love pets, but they dare not take the step of raising pets, not because of the cost and energy consumption brought by breeding, but because they are afraid of the sadness after losing their "family".

After all, compared with the life span of people, the life span of pets is mostly short. So, what kind of pet can bring relatively long-term companionship?

01

What kind of pet do you want to have longer company?

They are also "good friends of human beings", and the life span of different pet breeds is very different.

Hamsters with an average life span of only two or three years have turtles that can live for more than 30 years … … and most pets have an average life span of less than 15 years.

For example, the average life span of our most familiar pet dogs is about 10~13 years; The average life span of pet cats is slightly longer, which is only 12~15 years.

But this is only the average value. In fact, even if it is the same species, the life expectancy of different varieties is not consistent. Take pet dogs as an example, the general rule is that the bigger the body, the shorter the life span. The average life span of large dogs is about 9 years, while that of small dogs can reach 12 years.

It can be said that the companionship of more than ten years is the cornerstone for pets to establish close feelings with their owners.

02

Do pets and owners grow up together?

In many families, pets grow up synchronously with children, and the process of children growing up from babbling toddlers is also the process of pets entering old age from childhood. From this perspective, a pet’s life is also an important part of family memories.

Because the absolute length of pets’ life span is not as long as that of human beings, their growth rate will naturally not be completely synchronized with human beings. Taking pet dogs as an example, there has always been a saying that "a dog born for one year is worth seven years to human beings". Is this really the case?

In fact, the age conversion between dogs and humans is not linear, but variable.

Pet dogs grow very fast when they are young, and they can develop into a state of about 20 years old in half a year. But after rapid adulthood, the pace of maturity of dogs will gradually slow down. When the dog lives to be seven or eight years old, the aging rate will further slow down. At that time, when the dog is one year old, it is probably only equal to one or two years of life.

In many families with pets and babies, there will be a warm scene of pets looking after babies. In the eyes of human parents, it may be that children of the same age are playing with them, but in the inner world of dogs, it may be that mature "middle-aged dogs" are fulfilling their responsibilities and helping young people at home to take care of their cubs.

03

The average life expectancy of people is rising, but pets are declining.

Pets, which occupy an important position in the family, have also buried emotional hidden dangers for their owners-once their lives come to an end, they will bring a huge psychological blow.

It is precisely because of the rising status of pets in the family that human capital investment in pet medical care and even pet funeral has reached an unprecedented height. Many people spend a lot of money to treat their pets, and some people spend a lot of money to do things for their pets, just to let the hairy children go smoothly.

In the last decade, pet medical and pet funeral industries have ushered in a spurt of development. In 2023 alone, 1,920 pet funeral-related companies were established in China, while the total number of related companies established in the decade from 2003 to 2012 was only 64.

Although the time and cost that pet owners are willing to invest have soared, unfortunately, unlike the rising trend of human life expectancy, in less than 50 years (1970-2016), the average life expectancy of pet dogs has been shortened by 35%, from 17 to 11 years.

Why on earth is this?

In 2014, The Kennel Club, a British kennel club, investigated the causes of death of 5,700 pet dogs. The data shows that cancer is the biggest killer affecting its life span, accounting for nearly a quarter of the total, even exceeding the death of aging.

Among the dogs who died of cancer, the causes with the highest proportion were bone tumor (3.99%), lymphatic tumor (3.18%) and brain tumor (2.81%). The biggest killer that threatens human health also takes the lives of pets.

Ten years ago, The Kennel Club did the same research. The proportion of dogs that died of natural aging in that year was 17.8%, but now it is only 13.8%, that is to say, the number of pet dogs that died of diseases or accidents increased by 4% in ten years.

What is frightening is that the shortened life span of pets may be related to the popular lifestyle. According to the speeches of relevant insiders, the following three possibilities can be summarized:

First of all, genetic inheritance, artificial breeding of purebred dogs with similar blood vessels, easy to lose genetic diversity, greatly improving the probability of congenital genetic diseases; Secondly, pet dry food has changed the original diet structure, which is difficult to meet the demand of nutritional diversity, and long-term single nutrition source will affect its resistance; In addition, modern pets are often trapped in high-rise houses, and daily dog walking activities can not fully meet their activity needs, especially for large dogs.

The process of raising pets is not only that pets accompany people through a journey, but also that humans spend their lives with pets. Under the restriction of natural conditions, no matter what efforts are made, this is also a banquet that must end, but the time of sincere treatment will not live up to it. In addition to the investment of time, money and love, it is necessary to adopt scientific parenting methods to make this period of time longer and longer.

Influenza is high after winter. Please check this prevention guide.

Yellow River News Network Yuncheng News (Reporter Li Bingrui)Recently, the reporter came to the vaccination clinic of the Salt Lake District CDC in Yuncheng City to see that many parents took their children to get flu vaccine. The staff told reporters that since the winter, the demand for influenza vaccination has increased significantly, mainly on Saturday and Sunday.

Citizens take their children to vaccinate.

"The child is now over one year old and has weak resistance. I saw that many people around me got the flu, so I quickly took my child to get the flu vaccine, thinking about early vaccination and early prevention." Ms. Zhang said.

After vaccination, the citizens are under observation in the observation area.

As the weather turns cold, the temperature difference between morning and evening becomes larger, and respiratory infectious diseases are high, so it is necessary to be alert to the overlapping risk of influenza and mycoplasma pneumonia. What is the flu? What’s the difference between influenza and mycoplasma infection? How to do a good job of protection scientifically? With these questions, the reporter interviewed Zhao Junxia, chief of infectious disease prevention and control department of Yuncheng CDC.

Zhao Junxia, chief of infectious disease prevention and control department of Yuncheng CDC, was interviewed.

Zhao Junxia introduced that influenza is an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by influenza virus, which can occur all year round, with high incidence in winter and spring. October to March in northern provinces is the influenza epidemic season. At present, Yuncheng has entered the influenza epidemic season, and the number of influenza cases reported in the past two weeks has increased.

Influenza and mycoplasma infection are both respiratory infectious diseases, but they are still different, with different pathogens, different ages of onset and different clinical symptoms. Influenza is caused by influenza virus, while mycoplasma is caused by mycoplasma pneumoniae infection. Influenza can occur in all age groups, and mycoplasma mainly occurs in teenagers over 5 years old. The initial symptoms of mycoplasma are similar to the common cold, including sore throat, cough, headache, runny nose, earache and other symptoms. In severe cases, lung infection may occur. If you want to identify whether you are infected with mycoplasma, you need to carry out laboratory tests.

Influenza is highly contagious, so how should citizens prevent influenza in their daily lives? Zhao Junxia told reporters that the most effective means to prevent influenza is to inject influenza vaccine before the influenza epidemic season. Secondly, individuals should maintain good hygiene habits and develop good cough etiquette. When coughing or sneezing, cover your mouth and nose with paper towels, and don’t throw them around. Wash your hands frequently at ordinary times, and clean with running water after coughing or sneezing, before and after meals; Keep the environment clean and ventilated, and open the window for half an hour every day, twice a day; Develop a good habit of wearing a mask, and wear a mask when going to public places, hospitals, supermarkets and contacting flu patients. If you have flu symptoms, you should rest at home, seek medical advice as soon as possible, go to school or work without illness, and try not to go to public places; People with influenza should wear masks when they go out to avoid infecting others.

How to deal with the flu season? The answers to the four hot questions are here!

CCTV News:November 1st is World Influenza Day. As the weather turns cold, influenza gradually enters a seasonal active period, and influenza vaccination everywhere also enters a peak period. What is the epidemic trend of influenza in China this winter and next spring? How can we do a good job of prevention and scientific response?

In a number of community health service centers in Taiyuan, Shanxi, Xiamen, Fujian and other places, citizens are being vaccinated against influenza in an orderly manner, and many of them have come with their children. According to the medical staff in Xiamen, the local influenza vaccine stocks are relatively sufficient at present, and citizens can make an appointment in advance.

According to experts, according to the monitoring situation of sentinel hospitals nationwide, at present, influenza activities in China are on the rise.

According to experts, everyone is susceptible to the flu. However, the severity of flu symptoms varies among different people.

Jiang Hongni, member of Pulmonary Angiology Group of Chinese Medical Association:Children under 5 years old, especially children under 2 years old, older people over 65 years old, some people with basic diseases, and some pregnant women are also susceptible to influenza.

According to experts, the symptoms of influenza are relatively serious, mainly manifested as high fever and systemic symptoms, including headache, muscle and joint pain all over the body; The common cold and fever last for a relatively short time, with mild systemic symptoms and rapid recovery. If you have the flu, you should seek medical treatment as soon as possible in case of critical symptoms, so as to avoid blind or inappropriate use of antibacterial drugs.

Experts remind that to prevent influenza, everyone should wear masks and get flu vaccine while improving their immunity. Due to the different strains of influenza virus every year, the influenza vaccine will be adjusted accordingly, and the influenza antibody is not effective for life, so it is recommended that the public be vaccinated again every year.

Jiang Hongni, member of Pulmonary Angiology Group of Chinese Medical Association:Only a few people are not suitable for vaccination, such as very obvious allergic symptoms, especially those who have been vaccinated before, and there are diseases with this immune system. In addition, if the patient has a fever recently or has been vaccinated with other vaccines in the last month, vaccination can be suspended.

Five groups of keywords to understand the overall strategy of the party to solve the Taiwan Province problem in the new era

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, January 19th Title: Five groups of keywords to understand the overall strategy of the party to solve the Taiwan Province issue in the new era

  Xinhua News Agency reporters Zhao Danping, Zhao Bo, Alex Chen and Xu Xueyi.

  The sea and sky are vast, and the tides rise and fall. Shallow Bay Strait, after the changes of the cross-strait situation, has entrusted countless children with homesickness. What kind of cross-strait relations do we expect when we step into the threshold of 2022? The future starts from the present. What kind of ideal home should we leave for future generations?

  The development of cross-strait relations shows us that the motherland must and must be unified, which is an inevitable requirement for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation in the new era. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has stood at the strategic height of the overall development of the cause of the Party and the country and the realization of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, keenly observed the situation at home and abroad and the changes in the situation in the Taiwan Strait, profoundly summed up the major policies and practices of the central authorities on Taiwan, put forward a series of important ideas and major policy propositions on Taiwan’s work, and formed the party’s overall strategy for solving the Taiwan Province issue in the new era.

  What is the profound meaning of the Party’s general plan to solve the Taiwan Province problem in the new era? What can Taiwan Province compatriots gain from this? Will the vital interests be damaged? The following five groups of keywords take you to think rationally.

  National unity and national rejuvenation

  The emergence and evolution of the Taiwan Province issue is closely related to the fate of the Chinese nation since modern times. China was poor and weak in modern times, and Taiwan Province was occupied by foreigners for half a century. The continuation of the civil war led to cross-strait confrontation across the sea, and the separation of brothers and sisters left a painful heart for compatriots on both sides of the strait.

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly made important expositions on realizing the complete reunification of the motherland. The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China clearly stated "Persistence ‘ One country, two systems ’ And promote the reunification of the motherland "into the basic strategy of upholding and developing Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era.

  "National rejuvenation and national reunification are the general trend, the great righteousness and the will of the people." "The vast number of Taiwan Province compatriots are all members of the Chinese nation. We should be upright Chinese, seriously think about Taiwan Province’s position and role in national rejuvenation, and take promoting the complete reunification of the country and seeking common national rejuvenation as a glorious cause." On January 2, 2019, on the 40th anniversary of the publication of the Letter to Taiwan Province Compatriots, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader delivered an important speech, comprehensively expounding the major policy propositions of promoting the peaceful reunification of the motherland in the great journey of national rejuvenation based on the new era.

  "Promoting the complete reunification of the country and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is undoubtedly the core of the party’s overall strategy for solving the Taiwan Province issue in the new era." Wang Yingjin, director and professor of the Research Center for Cross-Strait Relations of Renmin University of China, said that this is a complete ideological system, with the people as the center, peaceful talks as the means, ending political opposition to achieve reunification, the rule of law as the guarantee, "one country, two systems" as the unified framework, and national rejuvenation as the ultimate goal, to plan the process of national reunification and improve relevant systems and mechanisms.

  “台湾问题因民族弱乱而产生,必将随着民族复兴而解决。”最高领袖总书记的郑重宣示,让定居上海的91岁台胞庄传鸿深受感动。出生于台湾台南的庄传鸿,因父亲不堪忍受日本殖民统治,1938年一家四口移居上海。因两岸长达数十载的隔绝,直到上世纪90年代初,他才得以重访暌违已久的故乡。

  “我已经90多岁了,可还想为祖国早日统一多出点力。”庄传鸿说,台南家乡还有堂姐堂兄等很多亲人,大家都盼着两岸能早日实现真正意义上的“团圆”,共同实现中华民族伟大复兴。

  结束政治对立、实现持久和平

  由于内战延续和外部势力干涉,自1949年以来,海峡两岸陷入长期政治对立。数十年“冰封”与隔绝,在两岸同胞心中留下难以愈合的伤痛,“解放台湾”和“光复大陆”曾分别是两岸流行的政治口号。

  Different systems are not obstacles to reunification, let alone excuses for division. "The long-standing political differences between the two sides of the strait are the general root that affects the stability and far-reaching cross-strait relations, and they can never be passed down from generation to generation." Three years ago, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader issued a sincere appeal, "We are willing to conduct dialogue and communication with all parties, groups and people in Taiwan Province on cross-strait political issues and related issues in promoting the peaceful reunification of the motherland, extensively exchange views, seek social consensus and promote political negotiations."

  According to Liu Guoshen, director of the Collaborative Innovation Center for Peaceful Development of Cross-Strait Relations, "peaceful reunification and one country, two systems" is the best way to achieve national reunification, which not only takes into account the practical interests of Taiwan Province people, but also takes into account the political requirements of the Taiwan Province authorities, and embodies the long-term interests of the Chinese nation and the overall interests of the country. "This is the wisdom of Chinese on both sides of the strait and the blessing of the people on both sides of the strait."

  On the premise of ensuring national sovereignty, security and development interests, after peaceful reunification, Taiwan Province compatriots’ social system and lifestyle will be fully respected, Taiwan Province compatriots’ private property, religious beliefs and legitimate rights and interests will be fully guaranteed, people’s livelihood will be fully improved, and Taiwan Province’s fiscal revenue can be used to improve people’s livelihood.

  "I have come into contact with many young people in Taiwan Province on both sides of the strait. It is obvious that some people shout against ‘ One country, two systems ’ , you ask him ‘ One country, two systems ’ What is the content, but I can’t basically answer it. " Zhang Liqi, a young Taiwanese teacher at Huaqiao University, said that we should help Taiwan Province compatriots get rid of the monopoly of green media on the island and truly understand the connotation of "one country, two systems".

  To this end, Zhang Liqi and his friends set up the WeChat WeChat official account, which shares fresh mainland information and comments on hot cross-strait news. "I hope that more Taiwan Province compatriots can see the mainland’s freedom, openness and institutional advantages and help them understand ‘ One country, two systems ’ Understanding democratic consultation is to let the people of Taiwan Province give their opinions. "

  Hope for the people of Taiwan Province and oppose the "Taiwan independence" split.

  "We welcome more Taiwan Province compatriots to participate in the promotion of the peaceful development of cross-strait relations. Let’s work together, come up with ideas and find ways, gather more wisdom and strength, consolidate and expand the development achievements of cross-strait relations, and make the peaceful development of cross-strait relations an irresistible historical trend, so that the vast number of Taiwan Province compatriots, especially grassroots people, can enjoy more benefits brought by the peaceful development of cross-strait relations." When meeting Lien Chan, honorary chairman of China Kuomintang, and his party in 2014, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader sent such a deep message.

  It is the Communist Party of China (CPC)’s consistent policy to place hope on the people of Taiwan Province. In recent years, the mainland has adhered to the people-centered development thought and the concept of "one family on both sides of the strait", and has issued a series of policies and measures that are conducive to winning the hearts of the people, and achieved remarkable results, vividly interpreting the practical strength of the party’s overall strategy for solving the Taiwan Province issue in the new era.

  Wang Kunyi, chairman of the Taiwan Province Institute of Strategic Studies and a professor at Tamkang University, believes that the mainland has always adhered to the principled position of the "1992 Consensus" and has always insisted on promoting cross-strait non-governmental exchanges and cooperation, seeking the well-being of Taiwan Province compatriots and placing hopes on the people of Taiwan Province. This is an unchanging goodwill and sincerity. "This is beyond the rotation of political parties on the island."

  Since the Democratic Progressive Party authorities came to power in 2016, they have linked with external forces, relied on foreign self-respect, frantically sought "independence" and provoked troubles, causing tension and turmoil in cross-strait relations and posing a great threat to peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait.

  “‘ Taiwan independence ’ Splitting is the biggest obstacle to the reunification of the motherland and a serious hidden danger of national rejuvenation. " "Anyone who forgets his ancestors, betrays the motherland and splits the country will never come to a good end and will be spurned by the people and judged by history!" "If ‘ Taiwan independence ’ The separatist forces provoke persecution and even break through the red line, and we will have to take drastic measures. " … …

  In the face of the separatist activities of "Taiwan independence" and the sinister intention of the United States and other external forces to "control China with Taiwan", the Supreme Leader General Secretary has made solemn declarations many times.

  "Objection ‘ Taiwan independence ’ It is the meaning of the party’s overall strategy for solving the Taiwan Province issue in the new era. " Zhu Songling, a professor at Taiwan Province Research Institute of Beijing Union University, said that the inevitable reunification of the motherland and the fate of the "Taiwan independence" were determined by the development trend of cross-strait relations and the historical process of national rejuvenation, which was an irreversible historical trend.

  Integrated development and common market

  "Cross-strait economic and trade relations have grown from scratch, and now they are booming, and there are various policies to benefit Taiwan. This is the best era for Taiwanese businessmen to develop in the mainland." Wu Jiaying, president of Xiamen Taiwanese Business Association, who has been rooted in the mainland for nearly 30 years, said, "Digital economy, new infrastructure construction and green development are all important directions for the future economic development of the mainland. We must seize business opportunities."

  Scenes of hopeful scenes and stories of struggle hand in hand, under the guidance of the Party’s overall strategy of solving the Taiwan Province issue in the new era, the mainland unswervingly took the lead in sharing development opportunities with Taiwan Province compatriots, providing equal treatment for Taiwan compatriots and enterprises, continuously expanding cross-strait economic and trade cooperation, and playing a magnificent movement of cross-strait integration and development.

  Brothers are United, and their profits are broken. For deepening cross-strait integration and development, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has always been mindful of this.

  From proposing to deepen the cross-strait integration and development, consolidating the foundation of peaceful reunification, to asking Fujian to explore a new way of cross-strait integration and development, and strive to build Fujian into the first home for Taiwan compatriots and enterprises to land, and then emphasizing the need to promote integration through communication, benefit and emotion when visiting Fujian in 2021, and bravely exploring a new way of cross-strait integration and development … …

  Optimistic about the new opportunities in the 14th Five-Year Plan, Taiwanese businessmen in Xiamen continue to increase capital and expand production. This is the foundation stone laying ceremony of the expansion project of Jianlin home kitchen and bathroom product line filmed in Jimei, Xiamen on January 12, 2021. Xinhua News Agency reporter Fu Minshe

  Time and time again, I have a strong heart and a systematic exposition. The major policy proposition of the Supreme Leader General Secretary on deepening cross-strait integration and development has been continuously improved in practice. "Deepen cross-strait integration and development", "Strengthen cross-strait industrial cooperation, build a cross-strait common market, and expand the Chinese national economy" and "Support Taiwanese businessmen and enterprises to participate ‘ Belt and Road ’ The strategy of construction and coordinated national and regional development has been written into the 14 th Five-Year Plan and has become an important program and action guide for promoting the peaceful development of cross-strait relations and deepening cross-strait cooperation in the new stage of development.

  "From Taiwan compatriots enjoying the same treatment as medical insurance and buying houses, to allowing Taiwan enterprises to participate in new infrastructure and support Taiwan enterprises to go public, the policies and measures have become more specific and delicate, which makes us feel more warm at home." Wu Jiaying said that the continuous implementation of measures to benefit Taiwan and benefit the people has created a better environment for Taiwan compatriots to land for study, employment, entrepreneurship and life.

  Cultural inheritance and spiritual harmony

  "The soul of the country, the text is transformed, and the text is cast." Chinese traditional culture is the common spiritual root and destination of compatriots on both sides of the strait. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has repeatedly stressed that the family members of compatriots on both sides of the strait are rooted in the common blood and spirit of compatriots and in our common history and culture.

  "Promote compatriots on both sides of the strait to jointly promote Chinese culture and promote spiritual harmony." "The intersection of people is your intimate." "Between relatives, there is no knot that cannot be untied. For a long time, it will surely achieve the spiritual harmony of compatriots on both sides of the strait. " … …

  The words of the Supreme Leader’s General Secretary, such as spring breeze and rain, contain profound thoughts on the reunification of the motherland.

  After the resumption of cross-strait exchanges, Jiang Mingxian, the first Taiwan Province painter who "landed" and held a solo exhibition, was nearly eighty years old. There were countless masterpieces in his life, but he only printed the work "New Fuchun Shan Jutu" with mainland painters on his business card.

  "It is of great significance for painters on both sides of the strait to cooperate in a painting, which fully embodies the spirit of modesty and tolerance of Chinese culture and is the best footnote for the same language and species on both sides of the strait." Jiang Mingxian said that both sides of the strait are Chinese. Taiwan Province people have been baptized by Chinese culture since childhood, from living habits, treating people with things to traditional customs such as ancestor worship at Qingming Festival, all of which reflect cultural inheritance. "Taiwan Province people should be proud of having Chinese culture."

  Hold the cross-strait Chinese character culture and art festival, carry out the "Taiwan Province Youth Chinese Traditional Culture Heritage Plan" and realize cross-strait cultural relics protection cooperation … … The sea is separated from the history of the two sides of the strait, and the blood of brothers and sisters is separated. The common blood of Chinese culture cannot be broken by any external force.

  Cultural identity is the foundation of spiritual harmony, and it also paints a bright "bright color" of the Party’s overall strategy to solve the Taiwan Province issue in the new era. Whether it is cultural exchange or social integration, it is basically to promote the spiritual harmony of compatriots on both sides of the strait and enhance the well-being and interests of compatriots on both sides of the strait. As General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out, everything we have done to promote cross-strait relations is to realize the yearning of compatriots on both sides of the strait for a better life.

  Join forces to know Yu Li, and go to Cang Ying together. Looking ahead, we are more qualified, emboldened and capable of accomplishing the great cause of the reunification of the motherland. Under the guidance of the Party’s general plan to solve the Taiwan Province issue in the new era, compatriots on both sides of the strait will join hands, work together, unite and move forward, and will certainly create a great rejuvenation and bright future for the Chinese nation!

Fast food powder is oriented to the development of high-end, regionalized and restaurant-reduced local specialty snacks.

This newspaper (reporter Yan Liwen/photo)The Guiding Opinions on Cultivating Traditional Dominant Food Producing Areas and Local Characteristic Food Industries jointly issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and other 11 departments clearly states that by 2025, the development pattern of local characteristic foods with "10 billion leaders, 100 billion clusters and 1 trillion industries" will be basically formed, and a number of national famous local characteristic food brands and typical cases of local characteristic snacks industrialization will be created.

As a representative of food on the tip of the tongue, local specialty snacks have condensed the wisdom of countless working people and are an inexhaustible motive force to promote regional economic development. With the growth of the new generation of consumer groups and the surge of online marketing, local specialties such as snail powder and hot and sour powder have ushered in new development opportunities. As a new force of convenience food, how will it develop more steadily and sustainably in the future?

A few days ago, at the Forum for the Development of Instant Food Industry of the 23rd China Instant Food Conference hosted by chinese institute of food science and technology, the participating experts and business representatives exchanged ideas around the cluster development advantages of local specialty snacks and explored the road to industrialization of local specialty foods.

Youpinzhi innovation special food

In recent years, the continuous growth of convenience foods such as hot and sour powder and snail powder has shaken the pattern of weak flour in the past decades, and these products have injected new vitality into the convenience food industry.

When talking about the development of snail powder, Lu Xiaoli, a professor at Sichuan University, said that the rapid development of Liuzhou snail powder industry is inseparable from the support of national policies, the promotion of local governments, the support of consumers and the vigorous marketing of merchants. Its product structure is not limited to the original model, and it has made great innovations in ingredients and soup packages. At present, there are more than 200 brands of pre-packaged Liuzhou snail powder, and the technical level of the production line integrates mechanization, automation and intelligence, which effectively helps the high-quality development of the industry.

Like snail powder, hot and sour powder is also working hard to improve quality. Dai Guichun, deputy general manager of the Instant Noodles Division of Sichuan Baijia Akuan Food Industry Co., Ltd. said that Baijia Chenji Hot and Sour Powder, as a pioneering representative of convenience fans, is also constantly innovating and developing to meet the growing health needs of consumers. "Jinli Ancient Street" small fresh flour, using a brand-new wet flour technology, produces wet flour with a water content of more than 50%, highly restores the taste of hand-beaten wet flour in restaurants, and makes authentic Sichuan-Chongqing snacks enter thousands of households.

He Jiguo, a professor at the College of Food Science and Nutritional Engineering of China Agricultural University, is concerned about the functional convenience market for fans. He said that convenience food has become a part of the staple food of Chinese residents. Consumers have a large intake of staple food and high intake frequency, and its advantages after functionalization are remarkable. Enterprises should pay attention to the use of raw materials in the process of functionalizing convenience foods. The ingredients of food can increase the homology of medicine and food. Considering the adaptability of different combinations, on the basis of strictly observing relevant national laws and regulations, innovative research and development of functional convenience foods can meet the special needs of consumers.

"It is also an innovation for one side to raise one side by soil and water." Colin, manager of convenience food category of Shandong Tianbo Food Ingredients Co., Ltd., said that returning to tradition and focusing on quality are the focus in the industrialization of convenience food. Whether it is instant noodles, boiled noodles or mixed noodles, its essence is to meet the needs of consumers for meal replacement in specific scenes. In recent years, the development of fast food powder is oriented to high-end, regional and restaurant reduction, which also shows that product innovation should focus on people-oriented reduction of catering products, including taste reduction, quality reduction and fireworks reduction, bringing new value to consumers.

Strong cluster to cultivate advantageous industries

Hot and sour powder, snail powder, Regan Noodles, crossing the bridge rice noodles … These special snacks from all over the country are gathering resources, forming industrial clusters and driving local economic development.

As the "Capital of Hot and Sour Powder in China", Tongxu has provided a model for building a local snack industry cluster. Han Zhenqiang, the county magistrate of Tongxu County, Kaifeng City, Henan Province, said that in order to realize the development of hot and sour powder industrial cluster, Tongxu County planned to build a hot and sour powder industrial park with a total area of 2,730 mu, covering hot and sour powder cakes and ingredients processing, production and packaging, cold chain logistics, R&D quality inspection, e-commerce live broadcast and so on. At the same time, with minimal approval, strict constraints, excellent service and extremely fast efficiency, we will provide quality services to the majority of enterprises and continue to empower industrial development.

In Sichuan, all kinds of special foods also gather in groups. Hou Jinglin, Deputy Director of the Management Committee of Tianfu Modern Seed Industry Park in Qionglai City, Sichuan Province, introduced the investment project of green food industry in Qionglai Economic Development Zone. He said that Sichuan Qionglai Economic Development Zone focuses on the development of food and beverage, high-quality liquor and other industries, and strives to build a leading green food and beverage industry base in the west. It is the main bearing place for the development of Chengdu liquor industry and the liquor industry in the metropolitan area, initially forming the development trend of the whole liquor industry chain.

According to Ren Weiwei, executive president of Chengdu Food Industry Association, the emergence of local specialty snack industry clusters is the choice for the development of consumer market. In the future, the development of characteristic industries needs industrial thinking, government support and industry promotion. Enterprises need to have the ability of continuous product innovation and model innovation, open up the market through the marketing method of "online explosion and offline expansion", create a resounding product brand and category brand, realize the leap-forward development of enterprises, and create a trillion-dollar local specialty snack industry market.

Promote development and empower industry iteration

The structure of the convenience food industry has quietly changed, and the products such as instant vermicelli, rice noodles and rice noodles have catered to consumers’ demand for local specialties.

Li Shu, director of the Network Supervision Department of Henan Provincial Market Supervision Administration, believes that the role of digital technology in the industrialization process of local specialty snacks should not be underestimated. Henan is a big food manufacturing province, and it is proposed to speed up the certification of smart workshops and smart chemical plants in the construction of public brands of "Famous American and Henan Products". The growth of the output value of single products such as snail powder and steamed eggs with flour is inseparable from the help of enterprises to analyze and accurately position the market with big data. Industrial digitalization is promoting major changes in production methods and social economy, empowering and vigorously promoting the take-off of small and medium-sized enterprises.

Zhang Yi, founder and CEO of Ai Media Consulting Group, said that the categories represented by Liuzhou snail powder, Chongqing hot and sour powder, Hunan Changde rice noodle, etc., restore and reproduce local food and flavor snacks, which are favored by consumers, and the regionalized features of convenient noodles are increasingly obvious, and new categories and new tastes of convenient noodles with regional characteristics are rapidly hatched. In the future, it will be the trend of product innovation and development for the instant noodle food industry to speed up cooperation with universities and research institutes, dig deep into regional traditional foods and conduct in-depth research on special foods in different regions.

He Yao, the founder of Sichuan Creative Box Brand Marketing Planning Co., Ltd., said that when talking about the innovative planning and three-dimensional marketing of new convenience foods with local characteristics, the R&D propaganda of new categories should clearly state "Who am I", focus on one point and one group of people, and avoid making products that are suitable for any scene and can be eaten and eaten by men, women and children without memory points. In the face of the changing market, only by making the brand itself a "flow" can the brand grow red after the flow "fades".

Liu Haoyu, Deputy Secretary-General of chinese institute of food science and technology, said that with the influx of more and more brands and capital, both the marketing model and product design have subverted the previous forms and easily switched between culture and personality. In the new era, the convenience food industry, as the main force in the field of food industry, the important carrier of rural revitalization and the key support of healthy China, will play an important role in the process of Chinese modernization, and the industrialization process of local specialty food is also an important way for the convenience food industry to meet people’s yearning for a better life.
