On the morning of September 18, a reporter from the Central Broadcasting Network visited Guangzhou Meicheng Food Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Guangzhou Meicheng") in Shiling Town, Huadu District, which is one of the two manufacturers shown on the packaging of "Meicheng Mooncake". The reporter saw through the park sign at the door that the park where Guangzhou Meicheng is located has settled in 6 companies, including them, and the rest are enterprises dealing in glass, plastic, webbing, luggage accessories and other categories.
Looking through the door, you can see the red sign "Hong Kong Meicheng Food" hanging on the top of the company building of Guangzhou Meicheng, and the words "Hong Kong Meicheng" and "Meicheng · Create China’s high-end fashion souvenir" on the wall of the main building. A staff member who came out of Guangzhou Meicheng Company told the reporter of China Central Broadcasting Network that some staff members are on vacation during the normal operation of the company.

Is Meicheng mooncake a Hong Kong mooncake? Is it made by a Michelin master? Are there black truffles added? For the many questions that have caused heated debate, the on-site staff told the CCTV reporter that the specific details involved need to wait for the relevant personnel to come back from vacation before answering. The staff told reporters that the market supervision department has been present for verification, and Guangzhou Meicheng has also cooperated with the verification work to provide relevant materials.
