Shin Kung Industries is one of the few operators in Taiwan that simultaneously engage in pig slaughtering, pork slicing and meat processing. Unlike ordinary food factories, where raw materials for meat come from auction markets or imported from abroad, all meat products of Xingong are supplied by long-term contractual farms.

In addition, Yang Boyuan, vice chairman of Xingong, who is known as "Doctor Yang," nitpicking and introducing the thinking of hospital management into meat production and processing, not only made Japanese people with strict requirements on quality sigh themselves, but also made Xingong become the first meat processing plant to resume export after the outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease in Taiwan.

When people talk about pig slaughtering, there is always a picture of pigs wailing and shit and urine flowing with blood and blood. However, when I walked into the Xingong factory area, I could not smell the disgusting smell of blood and the pungent smell of disinfectant. What was most impressive was the hall on the first floor of the factory building, decorated with a sacred and solemn Buddhist hall, repeating the chanting of Nanwu Quan Yin Bodhisattva.

Yang Boyuan often mocked himself for studying medicine and should be engaged in saving people, but he took on the family's cause of killing pigs and always felt sinful. Because of this, Yang Boyuan hopes to reverse the outdated stereotype of the pig slaughtering industry in the eyes of ordinary people, upgrade his professional level and profession, and require that "every employee who applies for Xingong must first promise not to kick and beat pigs or other insulting behaviors, otherwise they will all be fired."

Even though it is expensive for ↑ to build a production and marketing resume system, Xingong still adheres to the conscience management of the meat industry.
