In Cangnan county under the prefecture-level city of Wenzhou, Zhejiang province, Wang Haipeng was jubilant about his company's booming business — finishing 400,000 orders related to the Paris Olympic Games.

Inside Jinxiang Badge Factory, newly produced badges were being packed and ready to be sent to the Paris Games.

Wang, assistant to the chairman of the factory in the town of Jinxiang, said they received the orders as early as the second half of last year, involving 12 types of products covering badges, key chains and refrigerator magnets, which have been sent to the Games on a consistent basis ever since.

Established in 1985, the factory has designed and produced various types of badges for national as well as foreign military and political organizations for decades with its technology.

Wang said they have also designed and made commemorative and mascot badges for key events such as the 1990 Asian Games, the return of Hong Kong and Macao to China, the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games and the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games.

During the 2022 Asian Games, more than 60 percent of badges came from Jinxiang Badge Factory, he said.

As a commemorative badge has to go through nearly 20 processes, including electroplating, painting and plastic application, and every process is reliant on stable electricity supply, the plant has to have a trustworthy power source, Wang said.

"The production capacity of our factory has always been high, and the requirements for voltage stability in the badge production process are also very high," he said.

With the continuous innovation of production technology, industrial upgrading and transformation — and the steady expansion of production scale — the power transformer at the factory has expanded from the original 100 kilovolt-amperes to 315 KVA and now to 500 KVA, he said.

Miao Xiaojun with the Jinxiang Power Supply Substation under Cangnan County Power Supply Co of the State Grid said that as soon as State Grid Wenzhou Power Supply Co learned of the factory's orders for the Paris Games, it immediately designated special employees to contact the plant.

He said the power workers took a three-pronged approach to aid the factory in its booming business, including a "green channel" to expand its power capacity, a one-to-one services provision through a WeChat service group to provide round-the-clock technical consultation, and on-site visits to check consumption at power facilities.

"Our sincere thanks to the power supplier, as it has always provided us with reliable electricity," said Wang.

Miao said they also felt very honored to do their part with their achievement, as ensuring the smooth production of badges is equivalent to making a power contribution to the Olympic Games.
