  Going forward, the workstation will fully leverage the strengths of its academician and expert team—spanning scientific research, cutting-edge technology development, and talent cultivation—to deepen collaborative efforts in tea industry research. This will foster a seamless integration of industry, academia, and research, driving the transformation and upgrading of tea enterprises and the entire tea sector. Ultimately, it will provide stronger technological support for the thriving development of Anxi's tea industry—and indeed, China's tea industry as a whole.

  Yesterday afternoon, the Academician Chen Zongmao Workstation of Anxi Tieguanyin Group held its unveiling ceremony. Moving forward, Anxi Tieguanyin Group will provide the workstation's expert team with resources such as project implementation sites, facilities, manpower, and production materials, while also accelerating the commercialization and widespread adoption of proven technologies. In turn, the academician and expert team will oversee technical R&D guidance and conduct essential experimental research, among other scientific endeavors.

  Chen Zongmao, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, professor at the Tea Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and a renowned tea expert, expressed his hope that collaborating with Anxi Tieguanyin Group through their jointly established workstation platform will further drive innovation in tea technology, facilitate the commercialization of research findings, and ultimately position Anxi Tieguanyin Group as a national benchmark for standardized tea production—while also guiding the broader tea industry to elevate its scientific and technological capabilities.

  Lin Wenqiao, Chairman of Anxi Tieguanyin Group, stated that only technology can inject fresh vitality into tea enterprises. As a national key leading enterprise in agricultural industrialization, Anxi Tieguanyin Group has always placed great emphasis on using science and technology to boost the tea industry. The company has cultivated a longstanding collaborative relationship with Academician Chen Zongmao, having jointly conducted the research project "Demonstration and Promotion of Harmless Pest Control Technology for Anxi Tieguanyin Tea," which has already yielded significant achievements. In May 2013, spearheaded by the group, Anxi Tieguanyin joined forces with prestigious institutions such as Zhejiang University, the Tea Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University, Anhui Agricultural University, and Jiangsu University to apply for a project under the National High-Tech Research and Development Program—commonly known as the "863 Program"—titled "Research on Tea Quality Safety and Rapid Detection Technologies and Equipment." The establishment of this academician workstation marks a strategic move to attract top-tier intellectual resources, helping the group overcome critical technological challenges, accelerate the commercialization of scientific innovations, enhance the added value of tea products, and ultimately drive the sustainable growth of the entire tea industry.
