When the night is getting deeper, Ozawa, who gets off work, often habitually goes to the Ziyan Baiwei Chicken Store at the intersection and packs a stew to take home. On the way, he will also open the service number of "Ziyan Baiwei Chicken" to check the brand dynamics. Since mid-May, Ozawa has found that the brand weekly published by Service Number has added a "food safety column" to specialize in popular science food safety knowledge. "At first, I introduced why beef glows green. Later, I taught you how to identify yuba. Recently, I shared tips on how to prevent food poisoning in hot weather." Ozawa said, "These contents are both practical and answer some of my previous questions about the product."

The design of "Food Safety Column" is actually just one of the epitome of Ziyan’s food safety work. Over the years, Ziyan Food has created a set of closed-loop quality control that runs through raw material screening, production technology, cold chain logistics, store management and even consumer feedback, so that every braised taste is more secure from the source to the tip of the tongue.

Good raw materials+good technology = good products.

"It’s delicious and suitable for eating." When talking about the reasons for loving Ziyan food, Ozawa gave the above reasons without thinking, and said, "I got off work late, and it was troublesome to fry a menu and two dishes. At this time, it was just right to take a braised taste of Ziyan home on the road." In Ozawa’s view, Ziyan food is not only delicious, but also has eye-catching new products from time to time, but among all the products, I still love husband and wife lung slices best.

According to the 2024 annual report, Ziyan Food’s annual revenue was 3.363 billion yuan, of which 991 million yuan was sold only for the single product of husband and wife lung slices, accounting for nearly 30%. The back of a good product is inseparable from the support of good raw materials and good technology. In the course of long-term business cooperation, Ziyan Food has established long-term and stable cooperative relations with a number of large suppliers, such as Wenshi, New Hope and COFCO, on the main raw materials such as whole chicken, beef and duck by-products. For non-bulk commodities with special procurement needs, Ziyan Food will lock in the production capacity resources and product prices of high-quality suppliers by signing long-term cooperation agreements and price locking agreements, thus effectively ensuring that the company can obtain sufficient high-quality raw materials at reasonable cost in time. The arrival of raw materials in the factory is only the first step. After entering the factory, each batch of raw materials has to go through the joint acceptance system of Ziyan "food safety+production+storage". Only raw materials that pass strict inspection and meet the quality standards can be allowed to enter the production process.

On the other hand, Ziyan Food puts forward precise requirements for curing time, cooking temperature and time of each product in combination with modern technology to ensure the stability of taste and quality.

In addition to inheriting Sichuan brine technology, Ziyan Food is constantly learning and researching other excellent practices. On May 28th, 2025, the Rongchang District Government of Chongqing agreed to use the name "Rongchang Braised Goose" in Ziyan’s factory. Through the standardized production system, Rongchang braised goose will reach all sales terminals directly, realizing the consistency of quality and flavor. In the research and development of new products, Ziyan is not limited to Sichuan spicy taste, but also actively expands the diversified flavors such as sour soup, rattan pepper and spiced to meet the consumption preferences in different regions of the country.

Smart cold chain logistics escorts quality.

In order to live up to the good products made by good raw materials and good technology, Ziyan Food regards product quality as the lifeline of enterprise development, and has passed ISO9001 quality management system certification, ISO22000 and HACCP food safety management system certification and FSSC22000 food safety system certification, and has strictly controlled the quality from beginning to end, creating a comprehensive quality control system covering procurement, production, warehousing, product distribution, terminal sales and other links. In 2025, Ziyan Baiwei Chicken was awarded the certificate of "Group Member of China Quality Inspection Association", and the quality management and industry standardization construction were recognized by the authority again.

At present, Ziyan Food has established five high-standard production bases in Jinan, Shandong Province, Wuhan, Hubei Province, Lianyungang, Jiangsu Province, Ningguo, Anhui Province and Chongqing. By introducing advanced production facilities and technologies, it has realized a series of automatic innovations such as batching and reporting, reduced human intervention variables, and realized visual management and detection of the production process, ensuring product consistency and production efficiency.

A good product leaving the factory is only the beginning of the test. How to make these products with short shelf life pass through the logistics link efficiently and safely and reach consumers without damage is an unavoidable issue. In this regard, Ziyan Food realizes direct, efficient and fast distribution from the factory to the store through self-built cold chain logistics fleet, and maximizes the product life cycle. At the same time, the intelligent cold chain logistics service platform is applied, and advanced technical means such as Internet of Things, GPS positioning and remote temperature monitoring are introduced. After the logistics order is automatically generated and delivered with one button, the temperature, humidity and location information of goods in transit are monitored in real time, which greatly reduces the distribution error rate, maintains the freshness and taste of products to the greatest extent, and keeps the bottom line of food safety.

The location of the above five bases also helps Ziyan Food to form an all-round supply chain system with the optimal cold chain distribution distance as the radiation radius, fast supply and maximum preservation, and realize the scene of "placing orders the day before, producing on the same day, and delivering to the store on the same day or the next day". The direct, fast and low-cost product distribution effect provides a solid supply guarantee for the rapid expansion of the company’s sales scale. Based on the strategic layout, after the completion of the project of Hainan Ziyan Food Processing and Production Base, the supply chain network of Ziyan Food will be more perfect, and the delivery timeliness is expected to be further improved.

It is worth noting that the quality control management of Ziyan Food is not static, but is constantly evolving in combination with digital and information technology. At present, Ziyan has established a set of highly integrated digital management ecology, introduced modern electronic information management systems such as SAP-ERP system, sales center system, OA system, TMS system and WMS system in food industry, realized the systematic management of core business, completed the integration of different systems, and realized the integration of financial and business information and the real-time acquisition of sales information in terminal stores. On this basis, Ziyan Food continues to explore digital applications, make cross-regional market forecasts and feed them back to production, R&D and procurement in time to improve the company’s operational efficiency.

Terminal multidimensional prevention and control food safety risk points

When the products arrive at the store, they are faced with strict management procedures. Through the deployment of high-definition network cameras, intercom multimedia terminals and other facilities, Ziyan Food has built a real-time monitoring network for stores directly managed by the headquarters, and standardized supervision of terminal operations. In terms of environmental sanitation, Ziyan Food has set up a triple guarantee with the store self-inspection system, the irregular spot check by the national inspection team and the third-party professional disinfection service. Its small cooked food window, which was first adopted and always adhered to, made the clerk and the customer have almost no contact from ordering to taking the meal, and built the last physical barrier for the safe delivery of food.

The preservation management of terminal food forms a collaborative closed loop with the upstream supply chain through digital technology. Among them, around the fresh products that require high freshness, in order to ensure the timeliness of production and supply, Ziyan established a sales forecasting system. By analyzing the medium and long-term store sales data, short-term store sales data and product market demand, it predicted the order quantity of the store on the same day, thus giving production plan suggestions for different products. The production department manually reviewed the forecast data to form a production plan and arranged production in each production base. In terms of product distribution, the company’s middle desk system summarizes the product orders sent to the company by franchised stores and direct-operated stores at the specified time, and the company’s middle desk system automatically matches the orders with the inventory. After manual review, the production bases deliver the goods according to the store orders and deliver them in cold chain.

Ziyan Food also pays great attention to consumers’ shopping experience, and has an evaluation machine in the store, which further opens the channel for consumers’ feedback to the headquarters, ensuring that customers’ feedback can be collected and responded at the first time, thus improving the quality of the store and making product optimization and service improvement more targeted.

In addition to the above links, Ziyan Food has also formulated detailed management norms in tableware disinfection, sales operation and other aspects, and implemented them through training, supervision, inspection and other forms to standardize the unified and standardized operation of stores. Among them, in 2025, Ziyan Food launched three rounds of food safety strategy training covering the whole year, involving headquarters operations, operators and stores, covering food safety standards, store management, personnel health management and other dimensions, and continuously strengthening food safety risk prevention and control capabilities.

From the rigorous screening of raw material procurement to the improvement of production process, from the intelligent management and control of cold chain logistics to the standardized operation of terminal stores, Ziyan Food’s high requirements for full-link quality control not only help itself to open up a larger market scale, but also provide a typical paradigm for the quality upgrade of traditional lo-mei flavor. Under the background of the rise of quality consumption, Ziyan Food is guarding the core of traditional flavor by means of industrialization, improving industrial efficiency by digital technology, and writing a new industry sample for the high-quality development of the table-stewed track.

　　Recently, the discussion on the topic of "996 working system" has been heating up. The so-called "996 working system" means that employees arrive at work at 9: 00 a.m. every day and work until 9: 00 p.m., six days a week. From an Internet company’s public announcement at the annual meeting to the "996.ICU" protest initiated by programmers, and to the opinions expressed by many star entrepreneurs in recent days, this topic has become a social hot spot of concern to the whole people. The semi-monthly talk, which has the reputation of being the first magazine in China, has repeatedly commented on the 996 working system and analyzed it from different angles.

Talk about 996— — Keywords "illegal"

　　[Advocating the 996 working system, who gave "praise" the courage to openly violate the law? 】

　　At the company’s annual meeting in 2018, which was praised by e-commerce, executives announced on the spot that they would implement the 996 working system in the future, and even said that they could divorce if their work-family balance was not good, which not only made some employees feel dissatisfied, but also caused controversy. Praise CEO White Crow responded that it is definitely a good thing to look back this time a few years later, so that more people can understand the praise culture, and it will also make talents think carefully when they want to enter, so that they will not be different before and after coming.

　　Article 36 of China’s labor law: the state implements a working-hour system in which workers work no more than eight hours a day and no more than forty-four hours a week on average; Article 90 stipulates that if an employer violates the provisions of this law and extends the working hours of workers, the labor administrative department shall give a warning, order it to make corrections and may impose a fine.

　　According to the Youzan 996 working system, employees work up to 11.5 hours a day and work overtime for more than 100 hours a month, which obviously exceeds the working hours stipulated by the state. "Zanzan" made a big splash when it announced this illegal work system, and it was also justified when it responded. However, no matter whether "praise" wants to take the opportunity to lay off people or reduce wages in disguise, CEO regards illegality as a "good thing" and sublimates it into corporate culture. This is not only a problem of distorted values, but also a bad environment with high cost of safeguarding rights and low risk of illegality in the current labor market. Rights protection can’t rely solely on individuals, and relevant departments must "shoot when it’s time to shoot" according to law. At present, many enterprises are talking about the wolf nature. This desperate working mode, after putting on the coat of "struggle", has almost become a poisonous chicken soup for squeezing employees. I hope those companies that advocate the 996 working system and regard it as the standard understand that before talking about wolf nature, we must first talk about human nature. For those enterprises that deliberately ignore human nature and want to decorate the facade by one or two "family days", the relevant departments must be tough, give employees the confidence to defend their rights, and let the enterprises involved see the severity of the law.

Two Comments on Half-monthly Talks 996— — Keywords "overwork"

　　[Beware of the normalization of the "996" working system that gave birth to the "overworked generation"]

　　Nowadays, the trend of 996 working system spreading from internet companies to various industries is worrying. Many workers are trapped by this working system and forced to become "overworked generation" in endless overtime. This means that in the state that the 996 working system has become a hidden rule in the industry, even if you choose to change jobs, you still can’t get rid of the overtime curse. It is the workplace that changes and the working hours remain unchanged.

　　In fact, the 996 working system has been invisible for many years. However, it used to be covered with a layer of "flexible working system", but now it is openly declared as a normal working mode by some companies. Some companies use the so-called "struggle" to whitewash the 996 working system, and some companies use "high salary" to achieve a game with workers on the 996 working system. While the downward pressure on the economy is increasing, more companies normalize the 996 working system, while doing everything possible to reduce the overtime pay that workers deserve, so as to save costs and increase profits.

　　The social harm of 996 working system is self-evident, which overdraws the health and energy of workers, damages the interest and enthusiasm of a generation for work, and then has a negative impact on sustainable economic development and social harmony. Perhaps at present, the number of enterprises implementing the 996 working system has not reached the majority, but in the public opinion field with the magnifying effect of the Internet, the dissatisfaction caused by 996 is immeasurable to the society. A few days ago, an article "In my parents ‘ 996’ In front of us, the news that Japanese young people choose low desire has aroused people’s concern, and we should be alert to the hidden worries behind it.

　　In the face of the 996 working system, which is striding forward to normalization, the government labor department and the relevant institutions on which workers rely for safeguarding their rights cannot remain silent. After all, people work for a better life, not to give up their lives for work.

Three Comments on Half-monthly Talks 996— — Keywords "pseudo-struggle"

　　[996 has nothing to do with struggle, but with interests]

　　The discussion on the 996 working system in the public opinion field has been going on for some time, but it is still not over, and even "climax after climax" from time to time. This in itself is a puzzling phenomenon: why has an obviously illegal practice been standing, even entangled in the basic right and wrong issues? I’m afraid the reason lies in the related interests, so that the defenders of 996 refused to admit it even in the face of common sense recognized by most people.

　　Needless to say, the defenders of 996 have a strong lineup, among which there are some star entrepreneurs that our society most respects. Their arguments themselves have a strong personality color, and naturally have the star aura of the protagonist, so they are very confusing.

　　Moreover, some people are good at occupying the commanding heights of morality. For example, their core "rhetoric" is to link, bind and even uniquely equate 996 with struggle. In their discussion, 996 is illegal and unreasonable, which is nothing, as long as a "struggle" is enough: without struggle, where can there be a future? No, where did 996 come from? For the future, shouldn’t it be 996? For the future, it must be 996! Only 996!

　　In order to "consolidate" this logic, "winners" presented their own "selfless work" and moved out a large set of tall sayings and examples, even "two bombs and one star" were used to say things. They even stigmatized the legal 8-hour work as the opposite of 996. Those who work honestly for 8 hours just don’t work hard, struggle, seek stability, "have no future" and so on. This is a series of extremely confusing operations. It’s a pity that this logic is wrong from the beginning. This artificially set formula "996= Struggle" does not exist, and the resulting series of deductions are naturally just mistakes.

　　Struggle must be voluntary, supported by a sense of responsibility for the cause and confidence in the future. For 996, which is enforced by enterprises, if there is no system to implement the rigidity of the consistency of employees’ interests and enterprises’ interests, and there is no system to ensure that employees have a solid future, the struggle cannot exist. When employees lack the protection of long-term contracts, they will be laid off at any time, and there is no definite return to reward their sense of responsibility, even overtime pay. At this time, talking about struggle is tantamount to "why not eat meat?" At the end of the demographic dividend, forcing 996 is a double-edged sword. Squeezing employees by killing the goose that lays the golden eggs will inevitably overdraw the future and bring negative effects to the long-term development of enterprises.

　　I have to say that although this bowl of chicken soup carefully cooked by star entrepreneurs looks tall, it is obviously toxic and it is difficult for workers to laugh. What needs to be vigilant is that this kind of poisonous chicken soup argument is tantamount to deconstructing the spirit of struggle and the construction of a society ruled by law. It has been repeatedly brought out, which will interfere with the main theme of the times to carry forward the spirit of struggle and cause ideological confusion.

　　996 is not synonymous with struggle, it is more related to legal and interest issues. Advise people who are interested in promoting the normalization of 996: please honestly talk about the interests under the legal framework, don’t confuse the audience with so many lofty words, but actually come up with an interest protection system that allows workers to share joys and sorrows with enterprises. What we need is a legitimate and reasonable spirit of struggle, a spirit of dedication and responsibility to ourselves, our family and our country. If we separate these, the spirit of struggle will become passive water and a tree without roots.
