Upon hearing Lin Wanqiu's words, Zhao Tiancheng's face lit up with an excited smile: "That's wonderful! Chairman Lin, thank you so much! With your support and the association's help, our cooperative will definitely thrive!"

"No need to thank me, we're family, helping each other is only right," Lin Wanqiu said with a smile. "In the future, if you have any needs or difficulties, you can always tell the association, and we will do our best to help you."

After seeing Zhao Tiancheng off, Lin Wanqiu's determination to promote the integration of the industrial chain became even stronger. She immediately convened a meeting of the association's core members to discuss how to establish cooperative relationships with planting and breeding cooperatives to build a complete industrial chain. Everyone agreed that this was an important measure to promote the development of the industry and expressed their support.

In the following days, Lin Wanqiu led association members to conduct in-depth investigations of planting and breeding cooperatives across various regions, selecting a number of high-quality cooperatives and signing cooperation agreements with them. The association organized agricultural experts to provide technical guidance to the cooperatives, helping them improve their planting and breeding techniques and achieve standardized production; at the same time, it coordinated with food companies to sign long-term procurement contracts with the cooperatives to ensure a stable supply of raw materials.

Thanks to Lin Wanqiu's efforts, a complete industrial chain has gradually taken shape, encompassing raw material planting and breeding, production and processing, and market sales. Food companies now have a stable supply of high-quality raw materials, ensuring higher product quality; planting and breeding cooperatives have stable sales channels, leading to a significant increase in income. The entire industry has formed a virtuous cycle, with its development momentum getting better and better.

At the same time, Lin Wanqiu also began to promote brand building and green production. She organized brand building training for association members and invited experts to explain to enterprises the knowledge of brand positioning, brand promotion, and brand maintenance; she also formulated green production standards to encourage enterprises to adopt environmentally friendly, energy-saving, and low-carbon production methods and promote the production of green and organic foods.

Under Lin Wanqiu's leadership, the food industry in the province is thriving. More and more high-quality food brands are emerging, and their products are not only selling well within the province but also exported to all parts of the country; green food and organic food are enthusiastically sought after by consumers, and their market share continues to expand.

Lin Wanqiu's dedication has earned widespread recognition and praise from all sectors of society. She has been successively named "Outstanding Entrepreneur of the Province" and "National March 8th Red Banner Pacesetter," becoming a household name. However, she has not become arrogant or complacent, maintaining a humble and low-key style and devoting herself wholeheartedly to the development of the industry.

That day, Shen Tingzhou returned from a business trip to the military with good news. "Late Autumn, during my business trip to Beijing, I met an old friend who is a leader at the State Food and Drug Administration. I told him about the development of our province's food industry, and he was very impressed. He said he would like to invite you to Beijing to attend the National Food Industry Development Forum and share our experiences there."

"Going to Beijing to attend a forum?" A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Wanqiu's eyes. "Is it true?"

“Of course it’s true,” Shen Tingzhou said with a smile. “This is a great opportunity. It will not only allow our peers across the country to understand the development achievements of our province’s food industry, but also allow us to learn from the advanced experiences of other provinces, which will be very beneficial to the development of our industry.”

Lin Wanqiu was filled with anticipation. She knew this was not only recognition of her personally, but also an affirmation of the achievements of the province's food industry. She secretly resolved to perform well at the forum, share their experience with colleagues across the country, and contribute her own strength to the development of the national food industry.

The night before leaving for Beijing, Lin Wanqiu stood by the window, gazing at the starry sky, her heart filled with emotion. She recalled the beginning of her rebirth, when she suffered in her husband's family with her frail son. Back then, she struggled to even make ends meet and never imagined she would achieve what she had today. Along the way, she had experienced countless hardships and tribulations, but also received countless acts of kindness and support.

Shen Tingzhou gently hugged her from behind and said tenderly, "What are you thinking about?"

"I think it's all like a dream," Lin Wanqiu said softly, leaning against Shen Tingzhou's chest. "If I hadn't been reborn and if I hadn't activated the space, I might not be in this world anymore. Now, I not only have a happy family, but I can also do something practical for the industry and for society. I am truly content."

“You deserve all of this.” Shen Tingzhou gently kissed her forehead. “You are so strong, so kind, and so talented. No matter what era you live in, you can shine with your own light.”

Lin Wanqiu turned around, looking into Shen Tingzhou's affectionate eyes, a happy smile spreading across her face. She knew the road ahead was long, and new challenges and opportunities awaited her, but she was fearless. Because she had a loving family, supportive colleagues, and a heart that never gave up and always strived for excellence.

She believes that under her leadership, the food industry in the province will definitely get better and better, and she will continue to walk firmly on this hopeful path, writing her own wonderful life story and contributing more to this era. The upcoming National Food Industry Development Forum will be a new starting point for her. With this original aspiration and mission, she will shine even brighter on a broader stage.
