After going through rigorous screening process, Master Kong has been designated by the Winter Sports Management Center of the General Administration of Sport of China as an exclusive cooperation partner in sport, instant and nutritious diets in the 2019-2022 period, to provide instant diets for the national ice and snow sports training teams.
