What is the "dinosaur" production line in Zigong, Sichuan?

According to Chengdu Business Daily, in addition to the well salt site with a long history, Zigong is famous for its Middle Jurassic dinosaur fossils. The Dashanpu dinosaur fossil site in Zigong is one of the largest dinosaur fossil sites in China today, and it is also the place where the Jurassic dinosaur fossils are excavated and preserved the most in the world, so Zigong is truly named as the "hometown of dinosaurs". Moreover, Zigong is also a base for concentrated production of simulated dinosaurs.

A few days ago, some media visited a famous local dinosaur production line, which accounts for 45% of Zigong's simulated dinosaur production. The simulated dinosaurs produced here are exported to the United States, Turkey, Australia and Thailand. Dinosaurs from the world-famous Kings Island in the United States, Jurassic Park in Turkey, Plamer Coolum resort in Australia and Dinosaur Planet Theme Park in Bangkok, Thailand are all produced here. Among them, the most expensive 4-meter-long Tyrannosaurus Rex sold for $16,.

I came to this enterprise located in Zigong National High-tech Industrial Development Zone, focusing on the research and development of electric simulated dinosaurs. Standing outside the production plant, you can hear the howling of beasts vibrating the roof tiles in the distance, and it seems that you have crossed into the Jurassic era when you walk into the plant.

The spacious production workshop is full of all kinds of simulated mechanical dinosaurs being made, including the sea dragon which is more than 2 meters long. Tyrannosaurus rex with fierce eyes; There are Ankylosaurus in armor ... Hundreds of workers make and polish these simulated mechanical dinosaurs according to different division of labor. According to reports, a finished simulated dinosaur needs to go through 1 manufacturing processes before it is finally presented to the audience, from 3D design, frame manufacturing, modeling, plasticity, branding, coloring, color spraying, packaging, transportation, and finally to on-site installation.

According to the statistics of Sichuan Provincial Department of Commerce, Zigong City is the largest center for manufacturing simulated dinosaurs in the world. General Manager Lu introduced: "According to the statistics of Zigong Municipal Bureau of Commerce, China accounts for 8% of the global simulated dinosaur production, and Zigong, China, accounts for 7%.
