In the middle of 1984, with the reform of China's economic system, Luohe meat plant restructuring, Wan Long democratically elected to serve as director of the plant, Luohe meat plant to become the first elected director of the plant. After coming to power, because many people in the company are amateurs, there are a variety of backgrounds, day and night not willing to do the hard work, but also nagging, not to change out can not do anything. Wanlong reorganized his cabinet and replaced all the deputy directors. Shuanghui Group took office the next year, he engaged in the purchase of bargain pigs, the price of each catty of pigs than the purchase price upward of three cents, but also put the ads posted in the surrounding towns, which attracted pigs near and far, the meat factory, people happy pigs called. The provincial message came, said he privately raised prices, messed up the market, let him go to the province to report. He first reported the results: every year in August is the production of low season, the factory shut down, workers on vacation, the light of the wages and expenses on 189,000, and engage in the purchase of bargaining pigs, this year in August the net profit of 20,000 enterprises. In the winter of 1985, the central government announced price reform, prices rose. A local management department to the meat factory issued a notice, planning to reserve 1,500 tons of pork, without approval, a ton can not be transferred out. The intention was to stockpile white pigs and sell them at a high price at the Chinese New Year. However, Wanlong concluded from its research that if the pork could not be exported in time, the price of pork would plummet after the Spring Festival. Wanlong's apparent lack of resistance coincided with a sudden rise in temperature when the pork filled the cold storage room. He politely invited the leaders in charge to "inspect the completion of the storage task". The sun was shining outside, but the pork was piling up inside, and the leader realized that the pork would spoil before the Chinese New Year, and offered to get rid of the pork as soon as possible. Only four days to 1000 tons of frozen meat to the hands of customers, after the Spring Festival, the price of hogs really plummeted.

Since Wanlong as factory director, Wanlong decided to do a big job, he argued, decided to "sell the pot of iron", gritted his teeth on the most advanced ham and sausage production line in the country at the time. When it was difficult to sell pigs domestically, he was bold enough to invest in a split meat workshop, obtaining export qualifications, and took orders for split meat exported to the Soviet Union.

Once he was on the train, saw the opposite side of the travelers to eat ham and sausage, then this is still a new thing, back to the factory, he is going to start this project.
