Only by boosting both production and sales and allowing Macrobrachium rosenbergii to "swim further" can shrimp farmers truly benefit. As early as 2020, Zhaoqing began to lay out the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (Zhaoqing) Aquatic Products Comprehensive Trading Center covering an area of ​​99 acres in Gaoyao District.

Nowadays, relying on ice and oxygen, the prawns from Zhaoqing can be transported alive from their place of origin directly to Harbin and even Xinjiang. In the workshop of Zhaoqing Hengxing Aquatic Technology Co., Ltd., there is another batch of prawns that are processed into clean and delicious pre-prepared dishes, which can go further and even go abroad.

On Hengxing's Macrobrachium rosenbergii processing line, an advanced technology that is currently only used by 30% of frozen aquatic product processing companies - -196 degrees Celsius low-temperature quick freezing is used to lock in the freshness and sterilize the Macrobrachium rosenbergii collected from Zhaoqing. The core temperature of the product reaches the requirement of -18 degrees Celsius within 15 minutes, becoming the raw material for premade dishes.
