Standard laboratory, specimen room, expert studio, spacious multi-function conference room, first-class factory seedling workshop... In Shenan Village, Xin'an Town, there is a leading agricultural enterprise in Huzhou City - Deqing Haoyuan Aquatic Seed Industry Co., Ltd. focusing on the production and development of famous, special and high-quality aquatic seeds. It is hard to imagine that such a large-scale and modern enterprise was founded by an ordinary local farmer. From a native "aboriginal" farmer, to a model worker in Deqing County, the first ten youth entrepreneurship pioneers in Deqing County, and the third farmer expert in Deqing County, Shen Xiaoming has developed his own entrepreneurial path.

27 years ago, Shen Xiaoming, who graduated from high school, entered the society. He had no skills, no capital, and no access. After years of wandering, he did not see any improvement, and his life fell into confusion. Once when he was driving a truck to load fish fry, Shen Xiaoming smelled a business opportunity. Xin'an Town was a major fishing production town. In addition to his love for aquaculture, in 2003, Shen Xiaoming contracted 30 mu of land in the village, cobbled together nearly 60000 yuan to start his aquaculture business. He focused his entrepreneurship on the upstream of aquaculture - breeding and production of famous, special and high-quality aquatic seedlings. Although this industry has a good market prospect, it is highly professional and technically demanding. In order to breed good varieties of aquatic seedlings, Shen Xiaoming read a large number of relevant books and humbly asked his peers and seniors for advice. In order to master the core production technology of seedling breeding, he also asked for help from the town's agricultural office and established schools, and invited a number of aquatic experts for on-site guidance.

Breeding aquatic seeds is a very hard job. Shen Xiaoming describes his normal work as "getting up earlier than a chicken and sleeping later than a dog". His company now produces more than 20 varieties of fry. Due to the different biological characteristics of each kind of fish, the oxytocic agent and mating, the method of oxytocic and the time of oxytocic effect are also different. Shen Xiaoming often needs to get up in the middle of the night to watch the fish spawn and carry out artificial insemination quickly. During the fry breeding period from April to July every year, Shen Xiaoming stays in the fish pond almost every day. When he wears his water vest, he will soak in the water regardless of the wind or rain. In the winter, when a customer came, without saying a word, he dug the ice of the fish pond and fished for fish seeds. He fell into the water several times and shivered all over with cold.

Thanks to Shen Xiaoming's hard work, the production and operation of the enterprise has achieved good benefits, and has successfully developed a number of new aquaculture varieties with great market prospects. Zhejiang Institute of Freshwater Fisheries, Zhejiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences and other research institutes have cooperated with his enterprises to establish experimental bases. Zhejiang Ocean University, Huzhou Normal University and other universities have taken enterprises as the whole process teaching and practice bases for aquatic students. The enterprise has also successively won the honors of National Fishery Technology Promotion Demonstration County Science and Technology Demonstration Base, Zhejiang technology-based SMEs, Zhejiang Provincial Improved Culter Breeding Farm, Zhejiang Digital Agriculture Factory, etc.

A man is not rich when he is rich, but everyone is rich when he is rich. As a leading agricultural enterprise, Shen Xiaoming often thinks about how to give play to his advantages and expertise to drive the surrounding people to improve the breeding level and economic benefits. Xin'an Town is the town with the largest area of shrimp culture in the county. The problem of inverted output of big shrimp and small shrimp often occurs among shrimp farmers, which leads to a serious decline in benefits. In order to solve this problem, Shen Xiaoming selected whitefish as the biological regulation variety for shrimp culture, conducted various experiments, and popularized the optimal technical model to farmers. He provides high-quality white fish fry to shrimp farmers at the lowest price, and recovers small white fish from farmers at a high price at the end of the year. This service alone radiates nearly 1000 farmers, driving the county's shrimp farmers to increase their income by more than 15 million yuan every year.
