【Chapter 1189】 Fruitful (Ask for Subscription!)

Autumn is undoubtedly the most beautiful time of year in Los Angeles, with its warm climate and colorful vegetation making this city of angels even more charming. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

As one of the world's most famous tourist destinations, Los Angeles attracts tens of millions of visitors from all over the world, who have left their footprints on the Walk of Fame, Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Dinis Land, and more.

In the past few years, because Xiao Feng's family settled in the 'Dream Manor', many Chinese tourists who come to Los Angeles have to pass by near the manor to see the residence of the 'richest Chinese manor' in Los Angeles.

It's a pity that the high-walled compound and dense vegetation of the 'Dream Manor' block people's eyes, and the few high-rise buildings in Beverly Hills rarely give people the opportunity to see the inside of the manor.

As for spending thousands of dollars to eat at a 'dream restaurant', it's not something ordinary tourists can do, not to mention that 'dream restaurants' have always needed to book a table in advance, and even if you have money, you can't do it.

Today, 'Dream Restaurant' has become synonymous with the best restaurants in Los Angeles, the United States and around the world, and is known for its unrivalled food and wine.

A 'Dream Steak' starts at $388, while a better quality Ginkgo Steak costs $588, which is equivalent to a month's salary for the average Chinese person.

If you want to eat and drink enough at the 'Dream Restaurant', it is basically impossible for two people to have two or three thousand dollars, and if you open a bottle of 'Xiao's Wine' or 'No. 2 Winery', it is not a strange thing to spend more than 5,000.

The high price and Xiao Feng's own aura have made the 'Dream Restaurant' the best place for superstars, top rich and celebrities to have dinner in Los Angeles and even in the United States.

In the past few days, the number of Los Angeles celebrities who come and go to the 'dream restaurant' has increased dramatically, and I heard that Xiao Feng occasionally cooks and makes food, and many lucky people have tasted Xiao Feng's cooking.

Xiao Feng is a very special existence in the 'Dream Restaurant', he is not only the owner, but also the best chef in the restaurant, but unfortunately he is not on duty around the clock, which is undoubtedly disappointing to many fans.

There have been many customers who have eaten the food made by Xiao Feng, and they have impressed everyone with their incomparable deliciousness and special feeling.

Many people regret why Xiao Feng is a super-rich man instead of a full-time chef, otherwise they would have more opportunities to eat those touching, top-notch delicacies.

The day before yesterday, Will Smith brought his family to the restaurant for dinner, and happened to meet Xiao Feng cooking, and a series of delicious foods almost made the family swallow their tongues.

Afterwards, Smith told reporters interviewed outside the manor that Xiao Feng's cooking skills had surpassed ordinary standards and reached an admirable level.

According to information obtained from the public, Xiao Feng has not undergone professional cooking training, but he is able to make top-notch dishes and win international culinary awards, all thanks to talent!

Just like Xiao Feng's basketball skills, Xiao Feng, who has never trained in professional sports schools and sports teams, only began to really touch basketball at the age of 28, but became one of the greatest point guards in NBA history in just three years.

It is surprising to hear that Xiao Feng's IQ is as high as 180 and that he is a member of the Mensa Club; Xiao Feng's life before the age of 22 was just running according to the trajectory of most Chinese young people, and he was admitted to an upper-average university and became an inconspicuous little white-collar worker in a super city.

But everything changed dramatically in the summer of 2008, when Xiao Feng, who was originally unknown to everyone, suddenly soared into the sky, and finally became a winner in life and a national idol.

Judging from Xiao Feng's experience, he is simply the male protagonist template of the YY novel of 'Qishi Chinese Network', and his every move is full of pig's foot aura!

It is this dramatic experience that has made Xiao Feng the darling of the media, and everything about him has been deeply concerned and loved by the audience and readers.

…………

The outside world's coverage of Xiao Feng has increased but increased, and Xiao Feng didn't pay much attention to it, after all, no matter how powerful the media reporters are, they can't affect the life of Xiao Feng's family.

As for the reporters' various hypes of Xiao Feng's cooking skills in the media, it can only make Xiao Feng and the 'Dream Restaurant' more and more famous, and the reservation has already been lined up for a month.

At present, the 'Dream Restaurant' serves 500 customers a day, and at an average consumption level of $2,000 per person, the restaurant's daily turnover has reached a staggering one million dollars!

In the first three quarters of 2018, Dream Restaurant achieved a cumulative profit of $120 million, and it is not a problem to reach $150 million for the full year.

Although the 'Dream Restaurant' is a private company and does not need to publish financial data, the media reporters who are very powerful can always judge the profitability of the 'Dream Restaurant' through the data of the Los Angeles Local Tax Department.

The small 'Dream Restaurant' has become a cornucopia of Xiao Feng's name, which not only brings Xiao Feng a steady stream of cash flow, but also becomes a place for Xiao Feng to deepen his connection with celebrities in the United States and even around the world.

According to media analysis, it is precisely because of the existence of the 'Dream Restaurant' that Xiao Feng can establish a global relationship network more quickly, and eventually has a wider influence.

In addition to the great role that the Dream Restaurant plays in normal times, the picking ceremony held at the Dream Winery every autumn and the Dream Wine Tasting have become a link between the Xiao family and celebrities from all over the world.

This year, Xiao Feng decided to put the tasting conference on November 10th, no more, just because today is the first weekend after the beginning of winter.

The tasting conference can take care of the time schedule of more guests on the weekend, after all, everyone is in charge of everything, and not everyone is as free as Xiao Feng.

Of course, the reason why it must be after the beginning of winter is purely for the sake of brewing quality.

Over the past decade, Mirror Lake Group has become one of the world's best wine producers, with an eye for detail to the point of view of wine grapes.

Los Angeles is located in the northern hemisphere, and in many solar terms it has similarities with China, and wine grapes can only be made after the baptism of frost and the beginning of winter.

These theories may be different from many wine estates in the world, but the wine grapes of the 'Jinghu Group' are all nourished by the 'Spatial Spirit Spring', which is naturally different.

As early as the beginning of October, the invitation letter written by Xiao Feng himself has been delivered to more than 200 guests through various channels, and Mark William even confirmed the guests' itinerary by phone.

At every tasting meeting, Xiao Feng is responsible for all the guests' flights, transportation, accommodation and other links, spending money second, the key is not to neglect any guest.

If it weren't for a capable butler like Mark William to help deal with all kinds of trivial matters, I'm afraid Xiao Feng's head would blow up.

Fortunately, in the past few years, Mark William has won Xiao Feng's recognition with his outstanding performance, and all the guests can't help but give a thumbs up.

In a sense, Mark William's annual salary of $500,000 and the same amount of year-end bonus are worth it!

…………

As the tasting convention approached, more and more media began to send reporters to stay at Los Angeles International Airport, 'Neverland', Hilton, Four Seasons Hotel and other places, hoping to photograph some of the guests.

On the Internet, many celebrities who have received invitations have announced their itineraries on their tweets and scarves, and in a sense, being able to participate in the tasting conference itself is a status symbol.

Taking the Chinese entertainment industry as an example, only the kings and queens of the pop music industry, the big brothers and sisters in the hosting industry, the actors and actresses in the film and television industry, and the big names in the entertainment industry can be invited.

This year, Xiao Feng issued a total of 60 invitations to the Chinese cultural and sports circle, accounting for a quarter of all the guests, which is already a move to take care of his compatriots.

In the past few days, the domestic Internet has become extremely lively, and in the eyes of fans, the tasting conference has become a more high-standard 'Ginkgo Night', after all, their idols are about to stand side by side with many international superstars.

The invited guests have attracted much attention, and Xiao Feng, who issued the invitation letter, is not bad, and his scarf is also infested by countless people, and every update of information will usher in millions of forwards and comments, which is jaw-dropping.

In particular, Xiao Feng announced the photos of the 'Dream Winery' wine grape harvest on the scarf today, and let fans see the huge underground cellar of the 'Dream Winery', which attracted more attention from everyone.

For ordinary people, a bottle of 'dream wine' that costs as much as $16,888 may be a luxury that they will never drink in their lifetime, which also makes everyone have a strong interest in the wineries and cellars that make 'dream wine'.

It's a pity that the 'Neverland' is not open to ordinary tourists, so many curious people can only satisfy their hunger through pictures.

Prior to this, the two huge wine cellars of the 'Mirror Lake Group' had become tourist attractions, attracting millions of tourists every year.

At Château Xiao', the huge cellar that has stored 5 million bottles of 'Xiao's wine' is visited by thousands of people every day, and the rows of oak barrels are breathtaking.

According to the interpretation of major financial media, one of the most important assets of the 'Jinghu Group' and the 'Xiao Family' is not the so-called equity, brand, etc., but the top red wines stored in the cellar.

Taking 'Xiao's wine' as an example, 600,000 bottles are fixed in the cellar every year, and the price of that year is a terrifying $1 billion, and as the fame of 'Xiao's wine' grows, each bottle of wine will increase in value by more than 20% every year!

For this alone, even if the 'Jinghu Group' goes bankrupt in the future, the 'Xiao family' can still rely on these millions or even tens of millions of bottles of 'Xiao wine' to make a comeback!

The oak barrels and glass bottles displayed in the cellar have been transformed into glittering wealth, which is also the fruit of the 'Xiao family's harvest!

Originally, collecting famous wine is already a fairly mature investment field, and the emergence of the 'Xiao family' has made this industry even hotter, further pushing up the price of top international red wines.

In 2010, the price of the first batch of red wine produced by 'Xiao's Winery' was only US$1,188, but in eight years, this batch of red wine has multiplied several times, and the market price has reached an astonishing US$4,888, and it is still priceless.

You must know that at that time, 'Xiao's Winery' only sold 300,000 bottles of 'Xiao's wine', and most of them were drunk by consumers all over the world. By the second year, when everyone reacted and wanted to buy and invest in the collection, there were very few 'Xiao's Wine 2010' on the market, which made people regret it.

At that time, many tourists who came to the 'Jinghu Scenic Area' gritted their teeth and bought one or two boxes of 'Xiao's wine', but they never thought that it would be an unexpected joy, and the value increased by more than 4 times in just a few years!

In the past few years, the total number of wines released by 'Xiao's Winery' every year has not exceeded 400,000 bottles, whether it is produced in the current year or aged, each time it is sold out in a very short period of time!

After all, projects that increase by 20% every year, even if they look all over the world, are not so easy to find, not to mention investing in the wine of the 'Jinghu Group', which is the safest way to do so.

In this way, not only 'Xiao's wine', but also 'No. 2 Winery' has been enthusiastically welcomed by investors, and the wines of these two wineries are almost not in circulation in the market.

As for the higher-grade 'Dream Wine', it's not that investors don't want to buy it, but that Xiao Feng didn't put it on the market at all, it just made a directional subscription to the partners of the 'Xiao family'.

For example, the 'Dream Winery' only releases 10,000 bottles of 'Dream Wine' every year, and it is often sold out by the guests at the tasting meeting, and others have no chance at all.

Why is Xiao Feng's invitation so sought-after, in addition to the symbol of status, the investment profit is also a flock to the guests.

Generally speaking, a case of 'Dream Wine' sells for around $150,000, and guests can buy an average of four cases for a total price of almost $600,000. These wines can be bought back for storage, which can increase in value by about 100,000 US dollars per year, which is undoubtedly Xiao Feng's initiative to give money to everyone.

Xiao Feng is constantly linking more big people with the 'Xiao Family' through various means, so that the influence of the 'Xiao Family' is becoming more and more extensive! )
