In fact, except for Xiao Ping, all the people who can come to this tasting are insiders. Everyone has done this countless times when it comes to wine tasting.

The chosen representatives expertly poured the wine, sniffed it and then tasted it, and all but Simon and his two companions quickly had expressions of surprise on their faces.

Simon and his companions, on the other hand, looked stunned, looking at their appearances, obviously unable to believe the facts in front of them, and they were a little overwhelmed for a moment.

None of the people present were fools, and when it came to this, everyone could see that the wine of the Holy Pot Winery must be very good, and it was indeed qualified to rank first. Otherwise, Simon and the others would have made a fuss a long time ago, where would they be as stunned as they are now?

Everyone couldn't help but look at Xiao Ping and Hao Suo, who looked calm, and secretly wondered how these two people could make the Holy Pot Winery a blockbuster when they participated in the tasting for the first time.

Don't look at the person in charge of the tasting meeting, who is unhurried in talking and doing things, in fact, he is also a wilted master. Although things have come to this point, he still said slowly: "Please give a score to everyone who has tasted red wine, write it on the cardboard in front of you, and of course, don't forget to sign it." ”

Speaking of this, the person in charge glanced at Simon and the others, and then added slowly: "As for Mr. Simon Raffi and his two friends, I don't think they should be scored." ”

The words of the person in charge caused a burst of soft laughter, and Xiao Ping couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "This seems to be an honest man, but I didn't expect the work of mending the knife to be carried out so skillfully." It seems that none of the people who can get to this position are simple!"

A few people who tasted red wine while talking had already scored well. A staff member collected the cardboard from them and, after doing the calculations, announced loudly: "The average score given by these gentlemen is ...... 9.85 points!"

As soon as this score came out, the scene immediately became a sensation. In the more than forty-year history of the New Wine Tasting. In fact, the highest score is from the end of the last century, and it barely reaches a nine. And at present, the wine of Shengju Winery has actually received a score of close to 10 points, which is enough to show that their wine has almost reached the perfect Cheng dù!

All of a sudden, the original unknown new winery immediately became the focus of everyone's attention. Many people gathered around the person who had just tasted the holy pot of red wine, and asked what was so good about the red wine.

And those who have tasted red wine basically tell others with a satisfied face: "This red wine is good anywhere, and I have been doing this business for so long." I've never tasted such a good red wine!"

Listening to others praising the good red wine he brewed, Hao Sue's wrinkled face finally revealed a faint smile. However, he soon sighed lightly and whispered to Xiao Ping: "These people haven't drunk the wine you brewed. Otherwise, I don't know what to be surprised at!"

Xiao Ping only smiled at Hao Sue's words and did not express any opinions. After all, he was able to make such a good wine, which was entirely due to the Demon Refining Pot, and there was really nothing to praise about.

The person in charge saw that everyone had no doubts about the red wine of the Holy Pot Winery. It was soon announced: "We will now display the ratings of all the 36 wineries that participated in the tasting on the big screen." You can watch it as much as you like.

As soon as the words of the person in charge fell, the scores of all the wineries participating in the tasting appeared on the big screen behind him. The scores are ranked from highest to lowest, and the first place is the Holy Pot Winery, which received a score of 9.5.

This was the score given before, and the score given by the tasting meeting was even lower than the average score of those people just now, and everyone was speechless. This score is also a full point higher than that of Château Lafite, which is in second place, which shows how high the quality of the red wines of Château Saint Kettle is.

Many representatives of the winery congratulated Xiao Ping and Hao Chau, and their attitude towards them was much more affectionate than a few days. Anyone can see it. Château Saint Kettle will soon become a world-famous winery, and you can't go wrong with them.

Xiao Ping and Hao Chau politely returned the salute to all those who came to greet them. It doesn't mean that just because the winery won the first place, it means to look down on others.

The attitude of the two won them a lot of favor, and many winery representatives exchanged business cards with the two, revealing that they wanted to cooperate with the Holy Pot Winery.

Compared with the popular Xiao Ping, Simon Raffi at this time became a loner. Not to mention that the representatives of other wineries deliberately kept a certain distance from Simon, even the rest of the fine wine alliance was far away from him.

After all, Simon played the role of a leading bird just now, leading a farce questioning the collusion of the Holy Pot Winery with the Red Wine Association to create a shady curtain at the tasting. Now it turns out that there is no problem between the two sides, they will definitely come to trouble Simon, and only a fool will stay with him.

At this time, Simon didn't care about blaming his companions for seeing the wind and rudder, he just looked at the residual wine in the cup in his hand, and muttered vigorously: "Impossible, this is impossible!"

Simon had a hard time accepting that. Haucer's winery was facing bankruptcy two years ago, how could it complete such a magnificent transformation in such a short period of time? It's like talking on the phone, even Château Lafite doesn't have such a big ability.

However, whether Simon wants to make sense or not, the truth is so cruel and ruthless. In the face of the facts, he had to admit that this time it was indeed Château Lafite that lost, and the defeat was very obvious, and there was no possibility of even a little counterattack.

But for Simon, that's not the end of the story.

As soon as Xiao Ping over there got out of the warm greeting of his peers, he immediately said loudly to Simon: "Mr. Simon Rafite, now that the truth of the facts is clear, what you said just now has greatly hurt the reputation of the Holy Pot Winery. So...... Either you apologize to Château Saint Pot in the main media in the name of Château Lafite, or you are waiting for a lawsuit against Domaine Saint Pot!"

Without waiting for Simon to speak, the person in charge of the tasting also said slowly: "Mr. Simon Lafite, I just received a call from the rotating secretary general of the Red Wine Association. In view of the fact that you, Château Lafite, have questioned the impartiality of the Association, as well as the slander against the Association, we have suspended your membership and we do not rule out the possibility of resolving the matter by legal means unless there is a formal apology to the Association!"

Seeing that the Red Wine Association reacted so quickly, everyone else understood that Simon's public questioning of the Association's approach this time really angered the senior management of the Red Wine Association.

In fact, it is no wonder that the top management of the Red Wine Association is furious, after all, in an organization of this nature, impartiality is the basis of its existence. And Simon took the lead in inciting others to question the fairness of the association, which is tantamount to trying to destroy the wine association at the root. It is not surprising that the association's top management reacted so quickly and violently.

Hit by a double blow, Simon was in a dilemma for a while. If he agrees to apologize, it will be a loss of reputation for Château Lafite, and if Simon refuses to apologize, the matter will surely go to court.

And Simon has slandered the Holy Pot Winery and the Red Wine Association before, and if he really goes to court, he is very likely to lose the case. In that case, Château Lafite's reputation will be affected even more, and a huge amount of compensation will have to be paid.

At this time, even Simon himself didn't know, so he immediately promised to apologize publicly. Or risk paying more to bet that France will acquit you.

Just as Simon hesitated, another blow followed. Bernard squeezed out of the crowd, took out two checks from his wallet and handed them to Xiao Ping, "Mr. Xiao, this is the check you made a bet with Mr. Simon Raffi before." As a Witness, I will return both checks to you!"

Ever since he became the Witness, Bernard has been terrified of these two checks. You know, these are two bearer cheques, and anyone can get them to the bank and redeem them immediately. Even losing one of them was enough to break Bernard. Now that the check has finally been returned to its original owner, he has also breathed a long sigh of relief.

Xiao Ping took the two checks with a smile and looked at them, then tore up his own checks, and then handed Simon's check to the person in charge of the tasting meeting and said: "On behalf of Shengju Winery, I would like to donate 500,000 euros to the Red Wine Association, and thank the Red Wine Association for its efforts to promote red wine culture." I also hope that this money can help the Red Wine Association run better and provide excellent services to our winery!"

Rao is the person in charge is well-informed, and he was deeply surprised by Xiao Ping's generous donation. The Association's main operating capital is the membership dues paid by its members, and occasional donations are accepted. However, the amount of donations is relatively small, and a few thousand euros is already a large amount. And now Xiao Ping actually donated 500,000 yuan in one go, which is equivalent to half a year's operating expenses of the association, which naturally surprised and delighted the person in charge.

But for Xiao Ping, this is nothing. Don't want him to pay out of his own pocket, anyway, he won it from Simon, Xiao Ping just borrowed flowers to offer Buddha.

Seeing that the other party was still a little stunned, Xiao Ping was not ambiguous, and directly stuffed the check into his hand and said: "This is a piece of the heart of the Holy Pot Winery, and please don't shirk the association!"

"Ahh Compared to those old wineries that believe that they have some fame, they do whatever they want and don't take other people and the association seriously, you are so much better!"

Listening to the person in charge deliberately accentuate the tone of the "old winery", the people around him all showed a smile of understanding. Everyone knows who he's talking about, and it seems that the association has made up its mind to confront Château Lafite.

"Give it back to me!" However, Simon didn't hear what the person in charge was saying at all, he just looked at the check in the other party's hand in a daze, and suddenly rushed over with a shout. (To be continued......)
