"Mr. Sun, you're too kind. We understand your concerns," Lin Wanqiu said with a smile. "As long as we all work together, we're sure to make the industry better and better."

Thanks to the efforts of Lin Wanqiu and the preparatory team, more and more companies began to understand and support their work, actively cooperating with the research and offering many valuable opinions and suggestions. Lin Wanqiu compiled and summarized these opinions and suggestions, combined them with modern knowledge from the space, and revised and improved the draft standard multiple times, ultimately forming a set of scientific, reasonable, and practical industry classification standards.

Meanwhile, the construction of the technology sharing platform is also proceeding at full speed. Lin Wanqiu compiled the production techniques and recipes of her food workshop into a booklet and shared it free of charge with the members of the preparatory team, who then passed it on to various enterprises. She also invited agricultural and food processing experts in the space (whose knowledge was transformed into teachable knowledge through communication and learning via the skills panel) to organize several technical training lectures, explaining standardized production, product development, quality control, and other knowledge to enterprise leaders and technical backbones.

During the training lectures, Lin Wanqiu personally delivered the lectures, drawing on her own practical experience and explaining complex technical knowledge in simple and easy-to-understand language. She also demonstrated some key production processes on-site, allowing everyone to learn and experience them intuitively. Many company leaders and key technical personnel expressed that through the training, they learned a lot of practical knowledge and skills, and were filled with confidence in the development of their companies.

Watching Lin Wanqiu's busy figure every day, Shen Tingzhou felt both heartache and pride. He knew that Lin Wanqiu carried a heavy burden on her shoulders, so he took the initiative to take on the responsibility of caring for the family and the food workshop, allowing her to devote herself wholeheartedly to the association's preparatory work. Shen Nian'an also fully supported his mother's work, and whenever Lin Wanqiu encountered difficulties, he would comfort and encourage her in his own way.

"Mother, don't overwork yourself, take care of your health." Shen Nian'an handed Lin Wanqiu a glass of warm water. "I believe you can definitely run the association well and make the food industry more standardized and prosperous."

Lin Wanqiu took the water glass, patted her son's head, and said with great satisfaction, "Thank you, Nian'an. With you all here, I have endless motivation."

After more than three months of intensive preparations, all preparations for the establishment of the food industry association are complete. With the support of the Provincial Federation of Industry and Commerce, Lin Wanqiu determined the time and place for the association's inaugural meeting and extended invitations to food companies throughout the province.

On the day of the inaugural meeting, the conference center in the provincial capital was bustling with activity, as representatives from over two hundred food companies across the province gathered to witness this important moment. Chen Zhenbang, Chairman of the Provincial Federation of Industry and Commerce, and leaders from the market supervision department also attended the meeting.

The conference opened solemnly with the national anthem. Chen Zhenbang delivered the opening speech, extending his warm congratulations on the establishment of the food industry association, highly praising Lin Wanqiu and the preparatory team for their hard work, and expressing his earnest expectations for the association's future development.

Following this, Lin Wanqiu, as a representative of the preparatory group, delivered a report on the preparatory work to the conference. She detailed the association's preparation process, organizational structure, and work plan, and read aloud the industry standards and the association's bylaws. When she finished reading the last word, thunderous applause erupted in the conference center and lasted for a long time.

Next came the election. Following a vote by all participating representatives, Lin Wanqiu was unanimously elected as the president of the food industry association, and several influential entrepreneurs enthusiastic about industry development were elected as vice presidents and directors.

As the host announced the election results, Lin Wanqiu stood up, bowed deeply to all the delegates, and her eyes glistened with tears of emotion. "Thank you all for your trust and support!" Her voice was slightly choked, yet full of strength. "I will certainly remember my mission, live up to the trust placed in me, and lead all members of the association to work together to regulate industry order, promote technological innovation, improve product quality, and guide our food industry onto a healthy and sustainable development path, providing consumers with safer and higher-quality food, and making a greater contribution to the economic development of the entire province!"

The applause rang out again, lasting for a long time. Sitting in the audience, Shen Tingzhou looked at his radiant wife on stage, his heart filled with pride and joy. He knew that at this moment, Lin Wanqiu had not only realized her own life's value but also lit the beacon of development for countless food companies.

After the conference, the delegates gathered around to congratulate Lin Wanqiu.

"President Lin, congratulations! I believe that under your leadership, our association will only get better and better!"

"President Lin, we'll work for you from now on, so please be sure to mentor us!"

"President Lin, I hope the association can organize some exchange activities as soon as possible so that we can learn from each other and make progress together!"

Lin Wanqiu responded to everyone's congratulations one by one, her face beaming with a sincere smile: "Thank you everyone! The association is our common home, and from now on we are all one family. If you have any needs or suggestions, please feel free to tell me anytime, and we will discuss and resolve them together."

That evening, Shen Tingzhou prepared a sumptuous dinner for Lin Wanqiu to celebrate her election as president of the association. The table was brightly lit by candlelight, and the aroma of wine filled the air.

"Late Autumn, congratulations." Shen Tingzhou raised his glass, his eyes full of tenderness. "You've worked hard these past few months."

"It's not hard work. As long as I can do something practical for the industry, I feel it's all worthwhile." Lin Wanqiu also raised her glass and gently clinked it with Shen Tingzhou's. "This is also inseparable from your support and help. If you hadn't taken care of my family and the food workshop for me, I wouldn't have been able to devote myself wholeheartedly to the association's work."
