The manager of the Shanghai's Yuhu Ice Company ice-making factory on the outskirts of the city, Mr Ye says business in 2022 is double that of a normal year.
Though spending hot summer days surrounded by ice might seem like the coolest job in town, Mr Ye and his factory workers are pouring sweat as they hoist 40 kilogram ice blocks onto trucks on days when Shanghai has issued an"orange alert" for temperatures topping 37°C.As well as Yuhu's regular customers — such as farmers markets and seafood markets around Shanghai — they are also selling more ice to customers in other cities experiencing hot weather.
Volunteers at testing sites, who wear head-to-toe protective gear, have suffered particularly uncomfortable conditions.
