A journalist from Oman’s Al-Shabiba noted the significant role of technology in modern food processing, praising Zixingyuan’s strict requirements for food processing, modern production techniques, and high-quality products.

At the headquarters of the Village Live Streaming College, the journalists were given a tour of Pinggu’s live-streaming e-commerce functional zone and the capital’s logistics hub. Christine, a journalist from the Cameroon Tribune, expressed her thoughts on the event, stating, “Today’s event gave me a better understanding of the development of e-commerce in China. The Village Live Streaming College in Pinggu was a pleasant surprise for me. Although my country is also developing e-commerce, we do not have specialized institutions for comprehensive training. I will document and share this experience to inspire more people.”
