Chen Huaxing: It’s easy to make money by processing threads that can pass through the eye of a needle.

Chen Huaxing's thread pulling competition starts now.
Chen Huaxing is the president of the online and offline cooperative, and he organized this online and offline competition. The reason why he held this noodle-pulling competition was to test whose skills were better. For the champion, he will purchase one year's line area at a price higher than the market price, which is not a small reward.
In order to get the first place, the masters are all gearing up. They took out the dough that had been fermented overnight after working hard the day before. At the beginning of the competition, the chefs hang one end of the noodles on the shelf and use the wooden strips to pull the noodles at the other end. The thickness and length of the thread surface depends entirely on the strength of the hand. Didn't a master pull down the rack due to excessive force?
Why did the journalist fall down with just one tug?
The members of the cooperative in Sudi Village, Muyang Town, Fu'an City, Fujian Province were too nervous, too hard, too hard.
Thread-pulling is a skill that utilizes skill. Not just anyone can pull out noodles well.
In order to detect the thread surface pulled out by the masters, they also used a professional tool vernier caliper.
Chen Huaxing's silk is just in the middle of the silk, and the top and bottom of the silk can reach the silk.
Reporter, what do you mean by silk?
Chen Huaxing Shimi Mi.
The reporter wire is one millimeter. If the surface is silky, it means it is only .mm.
Chen Huaxing. Millimeter is correct.
In fact, to the naked eye, the difference in the thread surface drawn by the masters is not big. In fact, the thickness of the thread surface is completely different. The thickness of the two ends of a good line should not exceed millimeters and the thickness in the middle should not exceed millimeters. The total length should not be less than meters.
After the selection, a man named Wu Youzhong won the championship.
The length of the threads he pulled out reached . meters, and the diameter of the middle part of each thread did not exceed .mm.
How did the reporters perform today?
Wu Youzhong was okay.
When did you start learning the craft of being a reporter?
Wu Youzhong started learning the craft when I was old.
The noodles drawn by the masters are called thread noodles. The name is very vivid, which describes that these noodles are as thin as threads.
In order to show reporters how thin the millimeter line surface is, Chen Huaxing conducted an experiment on site. He said his thread thread could pass through an embroidery needle.
Can Chen Huaxing really be able to make a noodle pass through these four needles at the same time? The holes of these four needles are smaller than each other.
Chen Huaxing is a little more handy here.
The reporter came through first. So relaxing. What about the second one? The second one is also very easy. What about the next one? This one is also very easy to wear. Well, let's try on the smallest one and see if it can fit in.
Chen Huaxing, I’m afraid I can’t even see my glasses while trying them on.
Can Chen Huaxing’s thread go through the smallest needle eye smoothly?
The reporter also went through it? This needle eye should be the eye of the needle we usually use to sew clothes.
Chen Huaxing is. Our line surfaces are like lines.
Chen Huaxing used a thread surface to pass through four needle holes of different sizes. Chen Huaxing requires every thread to meet this standard.
Xianmian is a traditional pasta in Fu'an with a history of six to seven hundred years. Suti Village is one of the few places where the craftsmanship is preserved.

Kneading noodles. Open strip. Make small strips. Kamijou. The final step is to hang them on a rack and pull out string-thin noodles.
In the past, the production line was hand-made workshop style, and people made it in exchange for some pocket money. No one would think of making a fortune online. It was Chen Huaxing who used a method to achieve large-scale production of hand-made thread noodles in 2000. In three years, sales exceeded tens of thousands of yuan, turning what was originally just a handicraft workshop into an industry.

And all of this started with a bowl of noodles that Chen Huaxing could only afford to eat on New Year's Eve one year.
This year was a turning point in Chen Huaxing's fate. After graduating from junior high school, he worked in flour processing and sold fruit. Because of his good business, he became famous in the local area. In 2000, he was optimistic about the orange market and spent all his savings to contract an orange orchard. But he didn't expect that he made a mistake in judgment. At that time, the supply of oranges exceeded demand, and the price dropped to a few cents per catty. No one wanted it. Chen Huaxing almost lost everything.
Chen Huaxing is exactly 10 years old. Many people said that he would definitely not be able to turn over this time.
In order to make ends meet, Chen Huaxing went to the river alone to dig bamboo shoots in exchange for some pocket money. It didn't take much force to dig bamboo shoots, but at that time he swung the hoe vigorously and used all his strength to vent it.
When Chen Huaxing dug, he had to use a little more strength and call out to make people feel relaxed. It doesn't mean that I can't do it because someone says I can't do it. I must fight for it. I must be strong myself.
In the blink of an eye, it’s New Year’s Eve and everyone is eating big fish and meat. However, Chen Huaxing's family had no meat to cook. His wife used water to cook him a bowl of clear soup and noodles.
No matter how poor her life is, this bowl of noodles is indispensable. Life was difficult at that time and I could only think about what I wanted to eat.
But it was the bowl of noodles served by his wife when he was most depressed that made Chen Huaxing's eyes shine and he found the opportunity to make a comeback again.
Chen Huaxing means that every household needs thread and noodles during the New Year. This custom is common in the coastal areas of Zhejiang and Fujian. I have always considered that if I continue in this industry, I will definitely make money.
Eastern Fujian and Zhejiang areas have the habit of eating noodles. It is their tradition to eat a bowl of noodles on the first day of the Lunar New Year. At that time, only Sudi Village, where Chen Huaxing lived, still retained the craft of making thread noodles. Chen Huaxing thought that he could make threads and noodles without much capital. Why not give it a try?
Since 2000, Chen Huaxing has started a line-based business. He gets up early every morning and basks in the first round of sunshine. At that time, he worked harder than others in everything he did. He rushes to places where many people don't want to go to deliver goods due to the distance. At that time, he only had the thought that as long as he was willing to do it, he would be able to turn around one day.
Every time after delivering goods, Chen Huaxing has to go to a local scrap station in order not to go home empty.
He found that there was a local firecracker factory in Muyang that needed waste newspapers to make firecracker skins. You can earn cents per kilogram shipped back from other provinces. Chen Huaxing would not let go of even this dime.
Chen Huaxing As long as I am willing to do it, I will make money. I will go back to the waste paper shop and look around. If there is any waste paper, I will take it back. No matter whether it is a small amount or a big sum, I will make more money back.
Relying on hard work, Chen Huaxing slowly accumulated capital, opened his own processing workshop, and even packaged threads and noodles. Sold to East Fujian, Zhejiang and other regions. Chen Huaxing has saved five or six hundred thousand by relying on online area every year.
However, something suddenly happened at this time that made Chen Huaxing furious. But it was also this incident that made him a blessing in disguise and became the leader in local online and offline sales. What is going on?

It turns out that since 2000, more and more people have been doing noodle and thread business in the local area. Almost every household in the village has opened a noodle and noodle workshop. The competition is fierce and there is a price war. . In March, Chen Huaxing initially signed an order worth 10,000 yuan with an old customer in Zhejiang, but because he couldn't beat the price, he was snatched away by a man named Huang Zhida.
Huang Zhida: Everyone will be unlucky if they squeeze into a market. It is impossible for everyone to be unlucky. If I don't sell, you will sell. Then I will be the unlucky guy because my noodles are broken.
In order to grab the sales of online products, people are trying their best to lower the prices. Some people even cut corners on the portion of a pack of noodles.
Huang Xinglong, for example, if I reduce the price by half and two cents to four yuan per catty, and you move my price by two cents, it will still be the same. Consumers will not know that it is just a pack of noodles.
Chen Huaxing lowered his weight from Yuanjiao to Yuanjiao and then down to Yuanjiao. At most, he lost ten cents per kilogram.
In order to retain customers, Chen Huaxing's line prices also dropped again and again. At the end of the year, he almost made no money.
Chen Huaxing thought that if such vicious competition continued, the entire industry would collapse. Instead of each dealer working alone, it is better to join forces and develop as a group, which can not only stabilize the price of the line, but also use each other's sales channels to open up a larger market with fists. He decided to take the lead in establishing a line-level cooperative.
Chen Huaxing went to lobby the thread and noodle processors in the village. Everyone is in favor of group development. However, there were huge differences on one issue, which prevented the cooperative from getting started. It’s about who should listen to this standard. At that time, there was no unified standard in the industry and everyone was unconvinced.
Chen Haoqiang, especially the big ones, are more likely to be dissatisfied with each other. The main reason is that I also have this ability and everyone thinks I am better.
When there was a stalemate, Chen Huaxing thought of someone. This man's name is Wu Youzhong, a well-known local thread noodle master.
Wu Youzhong has already reconciled the noodles and started writing at 2:30 every morning. In order to speed up Wu Youzhong asked his wife for help. The control of strength depends entirely on the feeling of Wu Youzhong's hands. After an hour of fermentation, the most important part of noodle making begins immediately. Wu Zanzhong can control the winding speed very well to draw out a thin and even thread surface.
Chen Huaxing is wanted to be brought in because he is the number one expert in thread and surface making in our village.
If Zheng Zhong doesn't recognize the number one in this village, no one will dare to recognize the number one. That's it.
Wu Youzhong’s craftsmanship is so good that his line purchase price is the highest in the village. So many people wanted to learn skills from him, which made Chen Huaxing think of a way.
Chen Huaxing approached Wu Youzhong and invited him to join the cooperative as a technical shareholder and promised to acquire his lines at a high price. Wu Youzhong also suffered greatly from the previous price war. So he was very interested in the conditions given to him by Chen Huaxing.
When Wu Youzhong participated, there was a backer who would have better sales than us individually.
Chen Huaxing, who brought Wu Youzhong into the cooperative, organized another local noodle-pulling competition. He promised that the top three players who won the game would take back their threads at a high price. This reward attracted many thread and noodle processors in the village to participate.
On the day of the competition, Wu Youzhong won the championship without hesitation.
At the competition site, Chen Huaxing announced that Wu Youzhong has joined the cooperative. From now on, the cooperative's noodles will be implemented according to Wu Youzhong's standards. He will personally guide the members to make noodles. At the event, he also explained to everyone the pros and cons of a price war and hoped that everyone would join the cooperative and develop together.

Unexpectedly, the first person impressed by Chen Huaxing's words was Huang Zhida, who was snatching his order.
Huang Zhida In fact, when we engage in price wars, we are taking money out of our own pockets. In fact, it is really difficult for our industry to thrive because of price wars.
In 2000, Chen Huaxing united many people to establish a line and surface cooperative. This ended the price war in the local online market. He also set the standard for the thread surface so that the diameter of each thread is about .mm and the length is between meters and meters. Chen Huaxing feels that it will not be a problem for everyone to work together to develop and make money.
However, as the year draws to a close, Chen Huaxing’s noodle factory is filled with members of the cooperative, who all complain that together they are worse than working alone.
Zhang Baogui looks like he has a mountain of things to do, and he can handle them better if he can do it by himself without having so much backlog.
Chen Haoqiang, when you were managing the drying field, you were not diligent enough. You only pursued profits and did not control product quality.
No one expected that the cooperative would encounter such a situation just one year after its establishment. All the goods sent out were returned by the dealers.
It turns out that the cooperative stipulates that members should hand in fresh noodles, which will then be sorted, packaged and sold by the cooperative. At the end of the year, the shares are divided into shares. During that time, the weather was nice and the members of the cooperative did more. However, as soon as the line was handed over to the cooperative, it rained for a week. The employees overlooked an important issue when packaging.
The main reason for Chen Huaxing is that the humidity is too high. In terms of packaging, if the humidity does not meet the standard, then it is packaged.
A month later, these threads began to become moldy and deteriorate. Threads and noodles that used to sell for 1 yuan per catty became worthless and were all returned. This batch alone resulted in a loss of tens of thousands. No wonder everyone was in a hurry.
Chen Huaxing also realized that making noodles and noodles depends on the sky. If the weather is good and the thread dries quickly, you can do more. Bad weather can easily cause mold. However, Chen Huaxing, the local people's previous drying method, looked down upon it.
Chen Huaxing used this charcoal to burn the hot air and dry it. This is the oldest method of drying. When the charcoal is heated up, the color of the noodles will easily change and turn black.
The traditional drying method not only makes the thread surface black but also fails to control the drying moisture. Chen Huaxing knows that the most suitable moisture content on the thread surface is about 10%.
Chen Huaxing If the humidity reaches about 10%, our hands will not break even if we press it like this.
Reporters are fine.
Chen Huaxing is fine. It’s fine. When you touch it with your hands, it feels smooth like that beauty's hair. If it's too dry, it will break if you press it. You see, my kind is too dry and it will break if I press it with my hand. This one is very brittle and will break. This moisture reaches %. It can be used as a rope if it is wet.
It is this thread surface with high humidity that is most susceptible to mold. If the problem of drying cannot be solved, it will be impossible for the line surface to develop significantly.
Chen Huaxing tried various methods to no avail. Just when he was struggling to find a solution, he went to Gutian to investigate the local people's method of drying mushrooms, which made his eyes light up. Chen Huaxing borrowed the principles of mushroom drying equipment and transformed it into equipment that can dry noodles.
Chen Huaxing's heat needs to be sent in through this pipe and sent to our drying room. It will be blown through this fan and there will be hot air circulating in the entire drying room.
This set of equipment modified by Chen Huaxing can make thread and surface processing no longer subject to weather restrictions.
However, the seasonality of online and offline sales is very strong. Demand is greatest during the Chinese New Year. Every New Year's Eve, the first dish in every household is noodles. This tradition continues to this day.

The children wish the grandmother a long and healthy life. So many people only do business during the peak season. In the off-season of online and offline sales every year, many dealers have switched to other businesses.

Dealer Lin Nenmei It’s not easy to save money now that the weather is hot. Because they sell so little, they can’t leave them there to get damaged.
But starting from the beginning of the year, Chen Huaxing asked the members of the cooperative to make more threads and noodles during the off-season when the weather was good, and he would charge as much as they could. In just two months he acquired many tons. Many people didn't even dare to scream when they saw him like this.
Ruan Mirong didn't dare to think that it would break when the weather was hot.
Chen Haoqiang doesn’t dare to take risks because he is afraid that if the weather is too good in March and our production is too large, the price will not rise and we will not be able to earn back the interest if we store it for so long.
If Zhang Baogui really loses money, we will suffer a big loss. That’s how it is.

The shelf life of thread noodles is only a few months. Chen Huaxing spent more than 10,000 yuan on storage fees alone. Everyone is worried that firstly, the threads and surfaces cannot be stored for that long, and secondly, they are afraid that if there are too many threads and surfaces on the market at the end of the year and the price is not high enough, the tens of thousands will be lost.
But it was Chen Huaxing's move that made his sales reach tens of thousands of yuan in four months. How did he do it?
It turned out that Chen Huaxing saw a general pattern from the account books. During the off-season for noodles, the price on the market is only 1,000 yuan per pound, but the cost of processing the noodles is also low. By the end of the year, although the price of noodles and noodles is more than double that of the off-season, the cost of labor and flour is also high.
Based on the multi-ton sales volume in previous years, Chen Huaxing calculated that even though the storage fee would cost tens of thousands, as long as the price of threads could increase by 30 cents by the end of this year, there would be no loss.
So he asked the members of the cooperative to make more when the month was good to ensure that there would be goods at the end of the year.
Chen Huaxing: Because the market price will increase by one pound or three or four cents by the end of the year, I will protect my capital. If the price rises to one or two yuan at the end of the year when we are nervous, we will make an extra fortune.
Chen Huaxing wants to have a good fortune at the end of the year. So how to ensure the taste of noodles? Chen Huaxing also put some thought into shipping.
Chen Huaxing, for example, if a warehouse is full and the next batch comes to the store, I will collect and sell the goods at the same time so that the goods will be fresh.
Chen Huaxing receives and delivers goods at the same time. He keeps the inventory at tons.
At the end of the year, the demand for threads and surfaces surged in the market. The price of noodles per kilogram has also increased from 1 yuan in the off-season to more than ten yuan. The highest price can be sold for 1 yuan, which is more than twice the price in the off-season. From the beginning of the month to the end of the year, Chen Huaxing sold many tons of threads in half a year, and the entire cooperative's sales reached more than 10,000 yuan. Chen Huaxing led the development of the entire line industry in Sudi Village.
Ye Xiyu, Director of the Agricultural Bureau of Fu'an City, Fujian Province, and Chen Huaxin's annual output value accounts for % of our Fu'an City. It has developed for so many years but has not grown in size. After they established the cooperative, they gathered everyone's strength.
After Chen Huaxing made money, he held thread and surface competitions every year. He produced his thread and surface to the highest standards.
Now Chen Huaxing is planning to build a larger thread processing factory and wants his threads to enter a larger market.
