Chapter 420: Renault's Problem
With Wu Ming's encouragement, this group of people quickly signed a contract for cooperative planting, and Wu Ming asked Panlong County to send a team of capable planting experts on the same day, as the technical guidance here, and the whole project was officially launched.
At the celebration banquet for the launch of the project, Ma Wenzheng's eyes were red, and he said that he had to have three glasses with Wu Ming with a wine glass, Wu Ming smiled, and simply indulged once, and Ma Wenzheng raised a glass to drink, and a wine was not over until the early morning of the next day, and when he woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
Although it was a little late, and Ma Wenzheng was on the rise, he wanted to invite Wu Ming to the banquet again in the evening, but Wu Ming knew very well that he still had important things to do, so he declined Ma Wenzheng's invitation, and flew back to the provincial capital by plane that night, and returned to Panlong County overnight.
Now that the wine launch conference is imminent, Gu Xingzhi's preparations have been almost done, and the next thing depends on how Wu Ming sings this play well.
On this day, Wu Ming was reciting his speech, when he heard someone walking at his door, Wu Ming opened the door, and found Renault standing in front of his door.
"Mr. Renault, I would never have imagined you would come. Wu Ming said in surprise: "Why shouldn't you be in France now, preparing three wines for us to enter the French market?"
"That's right, my friend. Renault said: "But before that, there is one more important thing, is it that I was not invited to the launch of this wine?"
Wu Ming laughed: "Invite, of course I want to invite you, you are my biggest partner in this project at this stage, Mr. Renault, please come in." β
After speaking, Wu Ming invited Renault into his office and asked him to pour tea for Renault.
"Friend, the two of us are chatting together, the most suitable for us to drink, I think it's still drunk. Renaud smiled: "During the time I was separated from you, I thought about the wonderful taste of Panlong drunk every day, and I missed it so much. β
Wu Ming nodded, waved his hand, and asked people to go to the winery to get two bottles of Panlong drunk: "Drink it well, Mr. Renault, please enjoy yourself, and when you return to China, I will have someone send you a box of it." β
Renaud smiled, opened the bottle and poured himself a glass unceremoniously: "What a wonderful wine, that trip to the light industry exhibition was really the most successful hot-headed of my life." β
The two of them drank and drank, Wu Ming felt as if Renault had something to say, but it seemed that Renault seemed to have something to say and stopped, Wu Ming quietly followed Renault and the two of them continued to drink, and after a while, Renault finally couldn't help it.
"Mr. Wu, you are really a legendary character like a stone Buddha. Renault said, "I'm sure you've seen that I have something I want to ask you to help with." β
Wu Ming smiled and nodded: "There is a saying in our Celestial Empire, which is called the friendship between gentlemen and hearts, I know it in my heart, but I don't have to say it, if you really need help urgently, you will say it yourself." β
Renault smiled bitterly: "My plan, something is wrong. β
Wu Ming's head was big when he heard it, is it difficult for my mother to let Lao Tzu follow you to France to help you deal with things over there? No, if so, then why am I looking for you to be such a local snake, you don't have any energy, why should Lao Tzu cooperate with you.
Soon, Renault said what he wanted Wu Ming to help, and after Wu Ming heard it, he suddenly realized.
It turned out that what Renault lacked was not the ability to fund and move, on the contrary, Renault had a very strong ability, but due to the long-term international impression of the Celestial Empire's wine, many people thought that Wu Ming's side must be a grass platform team, and their wine must not be very good.
Renault also tried to take these things to visit some convincing wine tasters, but these people are high and low, coupled with lobbying companies in Europe and the United States, many people can no longer believe the remarks of those so-called authoritative experts, so Renault decided to directly organize a tour group, these people are the backbone of local wine associations, let them come to the Celestial Empire, nominally to visit the beautiful Panlong Villa in Shangqingshui, but in fact, let them come together to participate in Wu Ming's wine conference.
Wu Ming nodded: "I understand, do you want me to arrange a good reception for these bigwigs, although the social status of these people is like that, but they can be called the industry elite in the world's largest wine country, it seems that you are not not active enough, but your activity ability is too strong, and you actually made such a big scene in such a short period of time, yes, really good." β
Renault smiled slightly: "Then I will have more of your compliments, but what I need now is not compliments, but support." β
Wu Ming smiled, "No problem, I support this kind of thing 100%, what is there to say, I will call the person in charge of Panlong Villa now, and I will definitely treat you as a super VIP." β
"No, no, no, that's just one aspect. Renault said: "Actually, although I didn't say it explicitly this time, everyone actually knows very well in their hearts that I want them to try your three wines, and by the way, take a look at the production strength of your side." But to be honest, they don't really have much faith in you, so I need you to do two things now. β
Wu Ming asked, "What do you say, those two things?"
"The first thing to do is to give them a tour of your winery. "But before they visit, I have to go and see it, I want them to see a world-class winery, a winery that is not famous or has no heritage, but that is undoubtedly going to be the star of tomorrow." β
"No problem. Wu Ming said, "What about the second thing?"
"In fact, the things that your Celestial Empire can convince and recognize us are your level of economic development and your food. Renault said: "As far as I know, among the three major cuisines in the world, French cuisine, Celestial cuisine and Arabic cuisine, the people of our country are honestly very convinced of you, and it is not easy to do this, so in terms of food, you must be well entertained, and let them have a feeling that you are a bottomless and incomprehensible person, and can actually provide us with such a good meal." β
Wu Ming laughed: "If you want to say anything else, I may still be worried that I can't do well, but if you want to talk about eating, haha, have you heard of Gu Xingzhi." β
Renaud nodded: "I have heard that he used to be a three-star Michelin chef, and he was the best among the three-star chefs, but later Mr. Gu gave up his identity as a three-star chef in order to fight for Chinese food, and finally challenged the three best chefs at that time, and finally won easily with one enemy and three, he is a legend in the catering industry." β
Wu Ming smiled slightly: "Yes, have you seen him?"
"Such a powerful character, of course I want to meet him. "Renault said: 'Are you confident that you can invite him to come here and present a feast for our delegation?'
Wu Ming said: "Haha, when we went to participate in the exhibition of the International Light Federation, it was Chef Gu who introduced us, by the way, the one who was sitting with you drinking at that time, the tall one who didn't seem to talk much, was Chef Gu." β
Renault was shocked all of a sudden: "What! Wu Ming, aren't you kidding me, you said that Chef Gu is in your suit?"
Wu Ming said: "More than that, in fact, the three wines of Panlong Drunk, Bishu and Chunxue were developed by me, a university professor named Gao Jin, and Mr. Gu Xingzhi Gu, among which Panlong Drunk was named by me, Bishu was clearly owned by Mr. Gao Jin, and Chunxue was named by Mr. Gu Xingzhi Gu." β
Wu Ming saw that Renault's body began to tremble: "My God, my God, Wu Ming, you really shocked me, is this true, Chef Gu is in your ......Panlong Villa?
Seeing that Renault was a little out of words, Wu Ming smiled and said: "I said Mr. Renault, are you a little too nervous, take it easy, you believe now that I have the ability to do this well." β
"I'm relieved, completely relieved. Renault said.
"Okay, I'll call Mr. Gu now, and you can plan together how the winery should make some changes to welcome these elites from the world's largest wine country. Wu Ming said.
After a while, Wu Ming made a phone call to Gu Xingzhi, after Gu Xingzhi heard what Wu Ming said, he rushed to Wu Ming's office as soon as possible, Renault looked at Gu Xingzhi, and walked forward excitedly to shake hands with Gu Xingzhi: "Mr. Gu, I have admired your name for a long time, but I really didn't expect that we had actually met before, and I was so rude last time." β
Several people went to the winery together, unexpectedly, as a Frenchman who has his own private winery in Bordeaux, Wu Ming originally thought that Renault would pick his nose and say a lot of problems, but what he didn't expect was that when Renault came to the winery, he only kept admiring, saying that this was great for a while, and that for a while that was great.
Soon Wu Ming figured it out, after all, this winery was established by Gu Xingzhi, with Gu Xingzhi's level, of course, it would not be better than these people, after all, wine tasting is also a compulsory subject for Gu Xingzhi, although this is not completely his major, but compared with the owner of this small winery, Gu Xingzhi is definitely not inferior at all.
"No problem, even if you look at the senior tasters of the three major Bordeaux chΓ’teaux, there is nothing wrong with such a winery. "Renault said: 'We're going to arrange a restaurant tonight, and then we're going to have a dinner party, and we're going to use these three wines to accompany the meal.' β
"No problem, the wine and banquet are one, this is the most familiar thing for me. "Gu Xingzhi said: 'I will give them a night that I will never forget. β
In the afternoon of the same day, Renault took the tour group to Panlong Villa, and the group first took a general tour of the scenery of Panlong Mountain, and experienced the feeling of Panlong Spring.
These people have some opinions, to be honest, when they come to the Celestial Empire, what they want to see most is the prestigious cultural monuments of the Celestial Empire, or the natural scenery such as Panlong Mountain.
But after all, after eating people's soft mouths and taking people's hands short, these people themselves planned a free trip for themselves, and all the expenses were borne by Renault, so for Renault's arrangement, everyone was more face-saving, cheered up and followed Renault, took the commuter bus of Panlong Villa, and went to Panlong Winery.
