"As long as it is convenient and easy to use, try to produce the first batch first. Don't be too hasty. Just follow the planned production volume and meet the minimum standard."
Shen Dapeng looked at the production line made of pure white steel. It was indeed much better than the rusty production line in the cannery factory that was made of stainless steel and hard iron. It seemed that the money was not wasted.
"The production raw materials we purchased in the early stage are not enough. If you want me to overproduce, I can't do it."
The uncle chuckled and pointed to the storage report in his hand, "Especially the preservatives, there is a serious shortage."
"Not enough preservatives? Impossible. Aren't they all predetermined amounts according to national standards?"
Shen Dapeng remembered clearly that the rations of these raw materials were purchased with Wang Yuying's signature, so there should be only a lot more.
"National standards are national standards, and each food company will also have its own proportion. Only if it slightly exceeds the national standard but does not exceed the amount that violates the regulations, can the food reach the longest period of non-corruption."
"Um?"
Staring at the inventory report in his uncle's hand, Shen Dapeng grabbed it and frowned, "Excessive use of preservatives will cause harm to the human body. Who told you to use excessive amounts? Also, who allowed you to purchase sodium benzoate?
As a preservative? This should never be used excessively, don’t you know?”
Shen Dapeng raised his voice and made loud accusations. My uncle also felt that he was wronged. "Is there any problem with sodium benzoate as a preservative? It is not only used by us, but also by the food processing industry in the city, province, and even the country. I also use it."
After investigation, we found that sodium benzoate is also used in colas produced by foreign-funded companies."
"I know they are all used, but we don't use it. We should immediately switch to potassium sorbate, and the quantity must be strictly in accordance with national standards. I would rather reduce the shelf life by three months."
Shen Dapeng's tone was serious, without discussion, just an unquestionable command tone.
"Dapeng, I know you are considering food safety, but foreign-funded enterprises are using preservatives, so what are we afraid of? People in the industry know that potassium sorbate is safer, but why do they still use sodium benzoate?
That’s because the price difference between the two is more than double, so we don’t need to increase the cost.”
My uncle was a little anxious. He really wanted to go to the office to show Shen Dapeng the survey he had done and let him know the coverage of sodium benzoate in the national food industry. Even the country didn't care about it, so why should he be stubborn?
"I don't care about others and have nothing to do with me. I only care about our products. I don't allow any food safety problems. The sodium benzoate in the warehouse can no longer be used. The products produced before are temporarily closed. Even if they are dumped
Entering the river is not allowed to flow into the market..."
"Dapeng, I know you care about product safety, but the number of products in the warehouse is not small. Even if they are given out as prizes, the warehouse cannot be closed, right?"
My uncle was really anxious this time. Although the initial investment in the production of drinks was not too large, after all, it was the first batch of products, just like the first child in his life, which contained the great passion he and the workers had for each other.
There are so many expectations, but there is obviously no problem, so why should the database be closed?
"For food safety, there is no room for slack. You will understand in the future."
Shen Dapeng did not want to continue to make unnecessary explanations. He was a reborn person and was very aware of the endless food safety issues that will arise in later generations. Too many of the best-selling foods across the country had problems with additives, and they failed to recover until they faded out of the market!
He didn't want to lay a trap for himself. Instead of exaggerating after being discovered by the media, it was better to take precautions in the bud.
The shutdown of the production line that has just started is a huge blow to both the company and the workers. The company will be short of funds, and the workers will doubt their own abilities, and even more so the company's leadership.
If the ability is not good enough, people will naturally feel anxious and uneasy.
In order to emphasize the importance of food safety, Shen Dapeng held another high-level meeting. Before the meeting, Wang Yuying also knew about the shutdown of the production line, and of course she was dissatisfied with Shen Dapeng's decision.
"Shen Dapeng, Shen Dapeng, stop right here."
At the door of the conference room, Wang Yuying forcibly grabbed Shen Dapeng's arm with a bad look on her face, "Shen Dapeng, what on earth are you going to do? Sodium benzoate is a preservative used across the country, why can't we use it? Even if you don't want to use it, at least
You have to get everyone’s consent, right? You can stop production and close the warehouse with just a few words just by yourself. Do you know how much impact it will have on the company?”
"I don't care how big the impact is now, I just know that if there is a problem with sodium benzoate in the future, the company will definitely not lose some money."
Shen Dapeng didn't care about Wang Yuying's mood at all. He went straight into the conference room, found a seat at random and sat down.
"Shen Dapeng, you are a dictator. You have already decided the matter. Why are you still holding a meeting? From now on, can't you just tell us what to do? I won't have to worry about it."
"good."
Shen Dapeng smiled slightly, but still ignored him, and looked around the people in the conference room, "You have all heard that this is the right given to me by Mr. Wang. I declare that Pengyu Food will never allow the use of sodium benzoate in the future.
Until a better preservative becomes available, only potassium sorbate is allowed."
"Shen Dapeng, you..."
Wang Yuying wanted to get angry, but Shen Dapeng didn't give her the chance.
"Li Zeyu, my aunt is staying here. Manager Sun is going to call Zhou Chengmin and tell him that I have something to do with him."
"Okay, Brother Peng."
Sun Dapaozi nodded in agreement, got up and went out to call Zhou Chengmin.
Zhou Chengmin was overjoyed at Shen Dapeng's summons. He could feel his unusual excitement through the phone. He had been squeezed out by the Zhu family for a while. Although it was not impossible to survive, in addition to the projects he had already contracted, he could not survive.
Didn't get any new projects either.
Shen Dapeng had not contacted him since the last time he met Shen Dapeng by chance. He originally thought he had been forgotten about him, but now he suddenly received a call and rushed over without hesitation.
"For the rest of you, please leave the meeting if you have nothing to do!"
Shen Dapeng waved his hand, indicating that everyone could leave, which touched Wang Yuying's glassy heart again.
"Shen Dapeng, what do you mean? What are you going to do again? Take Li Zeyu and my aunt, but not me?"
Wang Yuying was completely angry. Shen Dapeng did not intend to take her with him several times when he had good things to do. If she had not insisted on it, she would have nothing to do with the food factory. This is indeed a problem for a young lady who can be the successor of Longchang Industrial.
