Fortunately, the acquisition of the wine industry will not be too conspicuous, and Li Feng has done a certain amount of public relations, although it has caused a certain amount of waves, but for most ordinary people, they may not pay attention to it, and it has not caused a wider sensation.

In recent days, Li Feng has been very happy, after all, the famous Napa Valley worship villages such as Harlan and Luyue have been pocketed by themselves, so it doesn't feel too cool, although it costs a lot.

In addition to the successive acquisitions, the symbol of Napa Valley and the king of wineries, Howling Eagle, is also being negotiated, which makes Li Feng even more excited.

As his stake in the liquor company continues to dwindle, Li Feng has recently begun to negotiate plans for the merger of the shares of various liquor companies into the parent company, Santa Mando Sahua, with the support of several private equity funds such as Wall Street, as well as the Harlan family and the Bryant family.

In addition to these few companies who directly agreed to Li Feng's proposal, the rest of the shareholders were also discussing and did not directly agree, after all, everyone has different ideas, such as Henry Jia Ye, their ideas are more conservative, worried about completely losing the control and management of the wine estate.

However, Li Feng is still very confident that they will all agree to his proposal, as he said before, although this seems to have made them lose control of the winery, but to be honest, the major wineries under its current banner, except for the two major wineries of Henri Jaille and La Loulehua in Burgundy, the ownership of the rest of the wineries is basically in the hands of the wine company.

Seriously, the operators of the major wineries are now just workers, but of course, these workers are a little different, that is, they are all one of the shareholders of the parent company, although each of these shareholders has a small share.

As the saying goes, there are gains and losses, although you will completely lose control of the winery, but becoming a shareholder of the parent company has also become one of the bosses in a certain sense, and Li Feng, the big boss, is still very principled, and a certain premium is given for exchanging the shares of the parent company.

With the continuous expansion of the Santa Mando Sawa Group in the future and the achievement of the luxury empire, the owners of the major wineries will get more and more valuable shares, and the loss of the winery will get more valuable shares of the luxury group.

......

This time, St. Mandosawa acquired several major wineries, and there was no need for Li Feng, the big boss, to make a move, St. Mandosava itself has enough funds, which is the normal operation of a company, if every acquisition requires Li Feng, the big boss, to raise funds to buy, it is too hard for the big boss behind the scenes.

I have to say that the acquisition of these Napa Valley wineries, which sound like 'Gundam', is actually not as difficult as imagined, when Li Feng carried the general trend, and came up with enough funds and some conditions to help the owners of these wineries develop, they were successfully won.

In addition to the Howling Eagle Winery, with the acquisition of major wineries, the next step is to integrate resources, and now they have rich experience in such things, and they don't need Li Feng to worry about it at all.

In addition to the acquisition of wineries, the next step is to inject capital into major wineries, such as Harlan Winery, which needs to negotiate the 60 vineyards, according to William Harlan, hoping to get at least 1/3 of the vineyards.

There are also Stagecoach Winery and Bryant Winery, both of which have a lot of idle land, many of which are very suitable for vineyards, and with the support of Santa Mandosawa this time, each winery can naturally increase investment and vineyards to achieve the purpose of increasing wine production.

And now the next plan has been formulated, that is, the Napa Valley side is basically formed, and the next wine company is mainly to further consolidate and expand the scale of the two major wine producing regions of Bordeaux and Burgundy, in preparation for the next expansion of the Sainte-Mantuosawa Group on a global scale.

As we enter early November, the annual Wine Rating and Auction arrives, when wine lovers from all walks of life, as well as winery owners, vintners, tycoons, celebrities and more gather at the Wine Museum in the heart of Napa Valley, where the wine tasting and subsequent wine auction are held.

Wine tastings and auctions will take place for almost a week, and of course, the wines that will be auctioned will be the most popular wines and the top wines offered by the major worship wineries.

Of course, the most famous of the master tasters is naturally Robert Parker, and basically Robert Parker's tasting success has become the vane of most people, Parker's

......

"John, you're here, I've been able to hear from you every day for the past two days, congratulations!" When Li Feng walked into the Central Museum accompanied by a group of people, he was greeted by his old friend and good friend Kenny and congratulated himself with a smile.

"Kenny, how can I see you everywhere, why are you here here? Looking at Kenny, who looked beaten and smiling, Li Feng replied angrily.

"Haha... , Who made you move so much, you must know that every year Luyue, Harlan and other famous wineries, we are all booked, we are all senior members of these wineries, I don't want to talk to you, how about it, from this year onwards to increase the number of reservations for us!"

Hearing Li Feng's joke, Kenny also responded with a smile and a joke.

"Uh... , William, Eddard, this is Kenny Rockefeller, you can call him Kenny, you can consider giving Kenny an additional share of a bottle per year. Listening to Kenny's unreliable joke, Li Feng suddenly said with a smile.

"Uh..."

"Haha..."

“...”

At this time, the tasting party has not officially begun, and wine distributors, major wine lovers, and rich and famous people from all over the United States and around the world have formed their own small groups to communicate with each other, which is very lively.

"Hello Mr. Lee, welcome to the California Wine Association. ”

As soon as he finished greeting Kenny and introduced the people next to him, he heard a greeting coming, and turned his head to see a middle-aged man aged 4 or 50 smiling and looking at him.

......

"Hi... , Hello Smith, didn't you say it, just call me John, don't you want to make me a friend?"

"Uh... Well, John, congratulations on taking some of the most famous wineries in Napa Valley, and I welcome you on behalf of Napa Valley, and I will look forward to the wonderful performance of your major wineries in a moment!"

"OK, James, I want to congratulate you as well, I hope this tasting will be a success!" Li Feng also responded with a smile.

Of course, non-official organizations like the California Wine Association are non-profit, originally organized by California's major wineries and wine merchants, but today, these organizations have a wide range of connections.

Li Feng had met with people when he acquired major wineries before, after all, although the acquisition of wineries was basically done as long as the owner of the winery agreed, but in terms of procedures, the final consent of the California Wine Association was still required.

It was also when I met him last time that he proposed to invite Li Feng to join the wine association and become a member, which only requires a certain annual membership fee, after all, he is a non-profit organization, and the membership fee is one of the important organizational benefits.

Often, some of the wealthy in California are members of the association, which is part of the American high society, and secondly, many members can order top wines directly from Napa Valley worship estates, which is convenient for the rich to enjoy top wines.

The reason why those top worship winery grapes can't be bought is that the annual production of these top worship wineries is basically booked out by the members of the winery itself and other related members such as the California Wine Association.

After a pleasantry, James as the host was naturally busy, and soon said goodbye and left, and at this time, with the host's speech at the host venue, the next including James and a state legislator in California, the mayor of Napa City and other bigwigs came to the stage to give speeches, and in the applause of everyone, the wine tasting finally began.
