Mid-May, Brazil.

Qingyuan Brewery's largest brewery in the state of São Paulo has completed an expansion, doubling its production capacity to 3 million kiloliters per year.

If this is comparable to the construction of a new brewery, which was completed in only half a month, which was expected by the people in Jiagu, then the Brazilian Ministry of Agri-Food Supply, as the regulatory authority, has not considered such a thing at all.

Therefore, when the official letter of Qingyuan Beer was handed to the office of Henrique, an employee of Brazil's Ministry of Agri-Food Supply, the other party thought it was a joke.

According to the perception of Brazilians, it would be good to officially start construction in half a month, let alone build a new brewery.

After winning the right to host the World Cup, all stadiums that host the tournament should be delivered by December 31 last year, but only two of the 12 stadiums were delivered on time according to FIFA's requirements - the "procrastination" of the Brazilians has been exposed in concentrating on big things.

After repeated confirmation, Henrik realized that the Chinese were serious.

Instead of being surprised, he was angry.

We all know that the World Cup is approaching, Brazil is now in short supply of beer, and the sooner it is put into production, the sooner it will be profitable, in his opinion, Qingyuan Beer is probably in order to put into production as soon as possible, at the expense of quality standards.

This idea was even more real after learning that the expanded production line was made in China.

Out of distrust of Qingyuan Beer, Henrik brought a full ten quality inspectors to the brewery to conduct a comprehensive inspection - as the world's third largest beer producer, Brazil's Ministry of Agri-Food Supply has standardized the supervision of beer production, established a series of quality control standards to check the hygienic conditions and technical processes of Brazilian beer. Despite the "beer shortage", Brazil has not relaxed its regulation of the beer industry.

When Director Song, who was transferred from Australia to Brazil at Qingyuan Brewery, heard about it, he received them lightly.

The half-month construction period sounds exaggerated, and if you want to win trust, you can only accept more demanding inspections. He was mentally prepared for this.

Henrik had been here when the brewery was part of AB InBev, and now that he has returned, he suddenly feels that something has changed.

“...... We have not only expanded, but also carried out a comprehensive and systematic transformation and upgrading of all links in accordance with the international standards of first-class technology, first-class technology and first-class equipment, so that its hardware has reached the standard of producing Qingyuan beer. Director Song introduced to Henrik in fluent Portuguese.

"This is your new production line?MakeinChina?" said Henrik, with a puzzled expression.

Although Made in China has begun to move towards high-end, it is still a little difficult for Brazilians who advocate European and American famous brands to recognize Chinese brands at the first time.

Director Song didn't seem to feel his contempt, nodded and said: "In addition to individual testing equipment and filling machines, this fully automated beer filling production line is made in China, with a design capacity of up to 180,000 cans per hour......."

Henrik's mouth was slightly open.

He used AB InBev's brewery as a reference.

Such a unit production capacity is undoubtedly the international top level of beer brewing equipment, not to mention, not only the production capacity, for example, in the filling process, in order to make the beer fresher, it is necessary to avoid contact between the liquor and the air, that is, anti-oxidation. The tightness and vacuum pumping of China's filling equipment are optimal, so that consumers can drink beer as if it has just come off the production line.

After a careful examination, Henrik has to admit that from the overall level, at least in terms of hardware, the Chinese beer production line has reached the first-class level.

What he doesn't know is that this is also the latest generation of products of Chinese beer equipment manufacturing enterprises - Jiagu system has always supported domestic equipment, and most of them will choose domestic equipment under the same conditions or even slightly worse. With China's largest brewer as a stable customer, the upgrading speed of domestic beer equipment manufacturing enterprises is not slow.

This is the case with the domestic manufacturing industry, as long as there is a stable market, even if the profit is low, it can be steadily upgraded. The most feared thing is that like domestic chips, there is almost no market, and there is not much motivation to upgrade;

Of course, this kind of refreshing feeling of industrial upgrading is not something that Brazilians who have made a fortune by selling resources can deeply experience, and Henrik only smacked his lips, exclaimed twice, and continued to check.

It wasn't until the final sewage treatment system that Henrik became interested and asked curiously: "What level of sewage treatment can you achieve?"

Director Song thought for a moment and said flatly: "After advanced treatment, the chemical oxygen demand concentration of the drainage water dropped from 500 milligrams per liter to 50 milligrams per liter, and the ammonia nitrogen concentration decreased from 35 milligrams per liter to 5 milligrams per liter...... This means that it has reached the standard discharge of 'landscape water'. ”

Henrik wondered, "Doesn't that mean you're doing better than the original Budweiser brewery?"

Director Song snorted and said, "Don't be afraid to be honest, although AB InBev is the world's largest brewer, it doesn't mean that it is the world's first in all aspects." In terms of sewage treatment, our level is really better than Budweiser. ”

"In our country, the sewage from our brewery can even be discharged up to the 'drinking water' standard, but that requires the use of aquatic plants to control pollution, and it cannot be introduced to Brazilian ...... for the time being."

"It's expensive. Henrik pointed out the key point.

Director Song smiled and said: "Actually, fortunately, in our group, almost everyone knows the phrase 'there is no waste in the world, only misplaced resources'." We are not only in charge of the beer production chain, but also in the production process of waste as a resource......

It's a little more complicated than he says, but it's not much more complicated than he says.

In addition to being able to self-recycle to realize the recovery of waste resources, it is also because Qingyuan Beer is truly going abroad with international standards.

In this day and age, not only developed countries, but also third world countries, often grasp environmental issues. This is both a real compulsion and a so-called green barrier. Qingyuan Beer is now on the cusp of the limelight, and the budget given by the headquarters is also higher than the ordinary standard, and it definitely does not expose flaws in environmental protection issues.

Henrik didn't think about it so deeply, but his affection for Qingyuan Beer really deepened.

While investment is welcome in words, no one likes to see foreign investment bring pollution to their own land, and although it may be that "the wool comes out of the sheep", it is a hundred times better than being wool and leaving behind a polluted mess.

Henrik is ready to admit that Qingyuan Brewery, not only in terms of construction speed, but also in terms of quality standards, has far exceeded their expectations.

At this point, his work can be said to be complete. Qingyuan Brewery has indeed completed the expansion, and the quality standards of the expansion have greatly exceeded the requirements of the regulatory authorities, and Henrik only needs to report it truthfully.

But what made him speak highly of Qingyuan Brewery in the report was that Director Song invited him to taste the "Bingyuan" puree beer that he rarely had the opportunity to taste on the market.

- Puree beer is a beer stock that is dispensed directly from the beer fermentation tank. Compared with other beers, puree beer is not filtered during the brewing process and does not undergo a high-temperature pasteurization process, so the freshness, flavor and rich nutrition of the hazy puree are completely preserved.

Although it looks a little cloudy, the taste of the original beer, in terms of freshness index, is simply off the charts.

From the first sip of Henrik, he screamed in his heart: Love, love!

This "deep love" was so strong that this civil servant, who usually only writes dry official documents, wrote in his report like a bard with the ultimate appreciation of the "ice source" beer - I tasted the good wine of the East, and the taste fascinated me...... I would like to swear to God, if this is the taste of China, no one will not love it!

It is unknown how Henrik's boss felt it, but there was a group of people outside the government who were interested in Henrik's description.
