Chapter 137 showcases how a presentation can help every pet live a healthy and happy life...
In the days that followed, the farm once again entered high-speed operation mode.
The expansion of planting and breeding areas is progressing rapidly under Xinglin's overall planning.
Su Qing began frequently traveling between Shanghai, Beijing, and Shenzhen, eager to explore new markets.
Lin Yao also spent all her time in the design studio preparing presentation materials for the awards ceremony.
Isabella became the busiest liaison, and her studio became a bridge between the farm and high-end clients, making Shi Wan feel quite embarrassed.
Isabella smiled and handed her a cup of coffee. "Try the new coffee beans. They're very fragrant and fruity. If you think I'm doing too much, then develop some new products. That way, our cooperation can reach a new level, and I can make a big profit when we split the profits."
In addition to overseeing the overall situation, Shi Wan now also has to deal with a sudden increase in media interviews and industry exchange invitations.
The huge success of the raw meat and bone project has propelled Meow Meow Farm to new heights, and its outstanding reputation has made it the focus of the industry, resulting in a flood of interview, speech, and visit requests.
Xinglin became her most reliable assistant.
He handled data system demonstrations, technical problem-solving, and even the translation and organization of some professional documents with ease.
To Shi Wan's surprise, Xing Lin also had strong communication skills. He was gentle and tactful, professional but not arrogant, and quickly won the favor of partners and the media.
Perhaps the only problem is that rumors about the two have started to circulate quietly.
"Mr. Shi, are you and Teacher Xinglin really just colleagues?" After a media interview, a young female reporter couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "The way he looks at you is so gentle."
Shi Wan was taken aback by the question and hadn't thought of how to answer it yet, but Xing Lin naturally took over, "President Shi is a leader I greatly admire and an important partner of mine. It is an honor to work with her."
This statement was watertight; it neither denied anything nor failed to maintain a professional distance.
The female reporter wisely refrained from pressing further, but the gossip gleam in her eyes was unmistakable.
After the interview, Shi Wan whispered to Xing Lin, "Thank you for getting me out of that tight spot."
“I’m telling the truth.” Xinglin looked at her. “You are indeed someone I admire.”
Shi Wan heard his praise and affirmation every day, and after a while she actually got used to it. She nodded helplessly, "I know, thank you for affirming me so much, Teacher Xinglin. Go and prepare for the next meeting."
Busy days fly by.
Before we knew it, it was a week before the awards ceremony.
Lin Yao brought the final version of the presentation plan to Shi Wan, jumping for joy. "Sister Wanwan! Our presentation plan has been selected by the organizing committee as the best creative presentation! We'll have fifteen minutes of stage time on the night of the awards ceremony!"
Shi Wan took the thick proposal and flipped through it page by page.
Lin Yao's design was indeed very comprehensive, from the opening video of the farm's four seasons, to the dynamic demonstration of the raw meat production process, to the real-time interactive display of the data system, and finally to the closing with real stories of customer feedback.
The entire process was both professional and emotionally resonant.
"That was wonderful!" Shi Wan exclaimed sincerely. "Lin Yao, you're a true genius."
"Of course!" Lin Yao proudly raised her chin. "But the most exciting part is Xing Lin's suggestion. He wrote a small program that allows the audience to scan a QR code to enter the simulation system, input their pet's information, and the system will generate a customized recipe suggestion on the spot. Although it's just a simplified version, the interactivity is absolutely amazing!"
"Once this awards ceremony is over, our farm will definitely receive a huge number of orders!"
Shi Wan couldn't help but look at Xing Lin sitting to the side.
He was intently looking at the laptop screen, his fingers rapidly tapping on the keyboard, probably working on perfecting that small program.
"Won't this be too complicated?" Shi Wan asked with some concern. "What if the on-site network is unstable?"
“An offline version has been prepared,” Xing Lin replied without looking up. “Moreover, the data volume is not large, and the local cache is sufficient to support two hundred people accessing it at the same time. Even if the network is interrupted, the basic functions can still be used normally.”
He always thinks things through so thoroughly.
Shi Wan felt a warmth in her heart. "Then let's prepare according to this plan. Yao Yao will still be in charge of visuals and process, Xing Lin will be in charge of technical explanation, and I will be in charge of the presentation content."
"No problem!" Lin Yao gave an OK sign, full of confidence. "I guarantee it will amaze the entire audience!"
The night before she was to leave for Hangzhou, Shi Wan was packing her luggage in her room.
Tangyuan jumped onto the bed, stomped around on the clothes she had folded, and finally chose a sweater, where she comfortably lay down.
"Tangyuan, those are the clothes I'm taking with me." Shi Wan poked his big head helplessly.
"Meow~" Tangyuan refused to leave. "How long is Wanwan going to be out?"
"I'll be back in three days, it won't be too long. If it's too long, I'll miss you all," Shi Wan patted his head. "You have to be good at home and help Chen Xi look after the house. Don't take advantage of Shan Feng's good temper and bully him, okay?"
"Mi knows." Tangyuan rubbed her hand. "Then you have to keep a close eye on Xinglin and don't let other two-legged creatures steal him away."
Shi Wan was both amused and exasperated. "Where did you learn all this from?"
"On TV!" Tangyuan said confidently, "In those TV dramas, the male lead always runs into bad guys as soon as he goes out!"
Looks like I'll have to let him watch less melodramatic TV dramas and let him watch more cartoons instead.
Kids are so easy to worry about all day long.
Shi Wan was amused. "Alright, alright, I know. Hurry up and go downstairs, I need to pack my luggage."
Tangyuan reluctantly jumped off the bed and squatted by the door watching her tidy up.
Shi Wan put the last piece of clothing into her suitcase, zipped it up, and then sat on the edge of the bed looking out at the night view.
We're leaving tomorrow.
Are you nervous?
Somewhat.
But more than anything, it's a sense of eager anticipation.
A soft knock came from the door.
Shi Wan got up and opened the door. Xing Lin was standing outside the door, holding a folder in his hand.
"This is the final version of tomorrow's itinerary, along with the script for the speech." He handed her the folder. "Get some rest; you need to catch an early flight tomorrow."
"Okay." Shi Wan took the folder. "You should go to sleep early too."
"Mm." Xinglin nodded, but did not leave immediately.
He looked at her, his eyes particularly gentle in the warm yellow light of the corridor. "Don't be nervous. Tomorrow is just about showing our results to more people. We've received an award before, but this time the stage is bigger and there will be more people in the audience."
His words of comfort warmed Shi Wan's heart.
She smiled and said, "I'm not nervous. With you here and the team here, I have nothing to be nervous about."
Xinglin's eyes crinkled into a smile. "That's good. Goodnight."
"good evening."
The door closed gently.
Shi Wan leaned against the door, listening to Xing Lin's receding footsteps, her anticipation growing stronger.
Tomorrow will be a new beginning.
And perhaps the unfinished business and unresolved feelings between her and Xinglin will find their answers on this journey.
The moonlight outside the window was bright, illuminating every corner of the farm.
Tangyuan jumped onto the windowsill, gazing at the starry sky, its tail swaying gently.
The mountain breeze patrols the courtyard with steady steps.
In the activity room, Rou Rou and the kittens were snuggled together and asleep.
Everything is peaceful and beautiful.
Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center.
Shi Wan stood behind the curtain backstage, looking down at the audience through the gap.
The venue, which could accommodate nearly a thousand people, was packed to capacity. The front row was occupied by well-known experts and business representatives from the domestic and international pet industry, while the media area was already filled with cameras and microphones.
A subtle tension and anticipation filled the air.
This is a much bigger event than the last time I received an award.
Lin Yao breathed softly beside her, "Sister Wanwan, my legs are a little weak..."
"Take a deep breath." Shi Wan patted her shoulder, her own palms were actually a little sweaty.
Today she wore a light gray business suit, her hair was neatly tied up, and her makeup was exquisite and appropriate. This was the result of a stylist that Su Qing specially invited from Shanghai.
"Mr. Shi, the equipment is ready." Xing Lin walked over from the control panel. He was also dressed in a suit today. The dark blue suit made him look tall and straight, and his gentle temperament had a sharp edge. "The mini-program has completed its final test, the network backup plan is in place, and we can start at any time."
His voice was steady, his eyes focused, and he seemed no different from usual, as if it were just a routine test.
Hearing his words, Shi Wan felt more at ease and became less nervous.
"Okay." She took a deep breath. "Let's begin."
The host's enthusiastic introduction rang out, "...Next, please welcome Ms. Shi Wan, founder of the brand Cat Paw and Meow Meow Mimi Farm, to demonstrate our data-driven customized pet nutrition solutions!"
Thunderous applause erupted.
Shi Wan straightened her collar and stepped onto the stage.
The lights were focused on her, and were somewhat dazzling.
As she walked to the center of the stage and looked down at the audience, the sight of countless eyes on her made her heart race.
But when she spoke, her voice was surprisingly steady and clear.
"Good evening, distinguished guests. I am Shi Wan from Meow Meow Mimi Farm. Today, I want to share with you not a product or a technology, but a philosophy, a philosophy that we have always upheld: every pet deserves to be treated uniquely."
On the huge screen behind me, videos of the farm in all four seasons were playing.
Catnip sways in spring, fireflies dance in summer nights, frost and dew glisten in autumn mornings, and the sun shines warmly in winter afternoons.
In the scene, Tangyuan rolls around on the grass, Shanfeng patrols upright, and the lawn in front of the cat villa is full of cats lazily sunbathing. The camera then pans to Jindian, who is lying outside the fence, looking around expectantly.
This heartwarming scene immediately captured everyone's hearts.
Shi Wan continued, “On the farm, we believe that the best pet food is not the most expensive, but the most suitable. Just like humans, every pet has unique physical preferences and health needs, and traditional mass production can hardly meet these personalized needs.”
The video then switches to the raw meat and bone production process.
From the strict quarantine of raw materials upon entry into the warehouse, to the precise control on the production line, and then to every step of the finished product packaging process.
The video is smooth and clear, and with Shi Wan's narration, a complex production process becomes intuitive and easy to understand.
"So we also developed this system." Shi Wan walked to the side of the stage, and Xing Lin controlled the screen switching in time. "It is a pet nutrition customization platform based on big data algorithms. It is not only a production management system, but also a bridge connecting pets, owners, nutritionists and veterinarians."
The system's user interface appears on the screen.
Xinglin walked from backstage to the stage and naturally took over the conversation, "The system is based on a huge pet nutrition database, containing more than 500,000 research data points. After the owner enters the pet's basic information, the algorithm will first generate a recommended formula based on basic parameters such as breed, age, and weight."
He operated the tablet computer and gave a live demonstration, "For example, this three-year-old Golden Retriever is overweight and has mild joint problems. The system will recommend a low-fat, high-protein formula with added glucosamine and chondroitin. If the owner has special needs, such as recently losing weight or being allergic to certain foods, it can be further fine-tuned."
A soft murmur arose from the audience.
Some experts in the front row have already started taking notes.
“But that’s not all,” Shi Wan walked back to the center of the stage and stood side by side with Xing Lin. “The true value of the system lies in learning and optimization. Every piece of product usage feedback and every change in a pet’s health will be recorded and analyzed. The system will continuously adjust its algorithm to make the recommendations more and more accurate.”
She paused, looked at the audience, and said, "Some people may ask, is such a system necessarily accurate? This is the interactive element we designed. Please take out your phones and scan the QR code on the screen."
A rustling sound came from the audience as nearly a thousand people pulled out their phones.
A simple interface appears on the screen after scanning, prompting you to enter your pet's information.
Xinglin explained, "This is a simplified version of the experience system. Everyone can generate a customized formula suggestion for their own pet on site. Although it cannot be used directly for production, it allows everyone to intuitively experience the customization process."
Exclamations of surprise echoed throughout the venue.
Someone whispered, "My cat is an extremely picky eater, I'll give it a try..."
"My dog has been shedding a lot lately, let me see what the system says..."
Looking at the people below the stage who were focused on operating their phones, Shi Wan felt a sense of accomplishment.
She continued, "This system has been running on our farm for three months, serving more than 400 pets. Customer feedback shows that the acceptance rate of customized formulas is as high as 96%, and the pets' health has improved significantly."
The screen displays real data charts and screenshots of customer reviews.
One Ragdoll cat owner wrote, "Princess used to take a week to adjust to any new food, but she accepted the custom-made formula on the first try, and her fur is now as shiny as silk."
An elderly dog owner shared, "My dog, Duoduo, is fifteen years old this year. He has been with my child from infancy to high school. He is getting old and his joint problems have become serious, but after taking the customized formula for two weeks, he can now go up and down the stairs by himself."
True stories are always the most convincing.
Some people in the audience already had tears in their eyes.
Who doesn't want their furry friend to stay healthy and well?
At the end of the presentation, Shi Wan looked at the entire audience, her voice firm and sincere, "At Meow Meow Mimi Farm, we are not doing business, but taking on a responsibility. Every little life that comes into this world deserves to be treated gently. We hope to use technology and dedication to help more pets eat the most suitable food for them and spend each day healthily and happily. Thank you everyone."
The moment she bowed, thunderous applause erupted.
