"Ahhh

The cheerful and happy shouts were rampaging through the venue unscrupulously, and people all cast their eyes, even if they didn't know why, they really felt the joy from the heart, and they couldn't help but fly along, sharing their joy together, and asking what was going on.

"Cloud Top Winery won the Grand Gold Award", this news spread far and wide.

A loud shout spread through the crowd, and Jack, who was gesticulating, stopped, whining, "What's going on?" What's noisy? Raising his head, he saw William's projected gaze, first asked "What's wrong", and then turned his head to look over, and saw three people shouting and jumping from a distance, his brows couldn't help frowning, and a sense of foreboding arose in his heart for no reason, and he asked eagerly again, "What's wrong?" ”

Turning his head, Jack looked at William and then at Brian, only to find that the faces of the two people were all blue and stiff like a corpse, which made Jack's entire brow tangled, and he asked in a grumpy manner, "Hey, didn't anyone hear that?" I asked, what the hell is going on? ”

Brian sighed lightly, "They've got the Big Gold Award." ”

Jack seemed to have been immobilized, the whole person was stunned in place, his eyes were round, motionless, it seemed that even his brain had stopped running, lost his soul, at a loss, for a long time, he came back to his senses, and said, "No...... right" After saying it, he grabbed the life-saving straw and shook his head again and again, "Definitely not." We just saw the first list, we didn't see their names, we didn't see them at all! ”

But he forgot that the list is too long, and everyone is only looking for the name of their own winery, so how can they bother to look at other wineries? Even the top wineries such as Lafite and Romanée-Conti, they don't remember whether they have seen them or not. What's more, it's such an unfamiliar name as Cloud Top Winery?

Brian tried to explain, but found that he had no strength at all, so he could only pull down his shoulders.

Jack didn't get the answer he wanted, and looked at William, but before he could speak, William said irritably, "If you don't believe it, you can go over and see for yourself." "Those three people are not stupid, if they are wrong, and celebrate like this, then they are the ones who are ashamed.

So, that's the way it is. Dukas Winery lost to Yunding Winery, and it was a complete defeat, one was a big gold award, the other was only a silver award, and there was a gold award list in between, but it seemed to be separated by the entire ocean, and the huge gap made all the justifications and arguments come to an abrupt end, full of bitterness, and couldn't say a word.

Obviously, the other party didn't say a word, it was clear that the other party was just concentrating on celebrating, and it was clear that the other party didn't have any intention of showing off his might, but his cheeks were so swollen and painful, as if he had been slapped in the face, hard, loudly, and again, shame and anger were like flames, from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and the whole person was almost about to turn into ashes, but he couldn't resist, not at all.

What was even more terrifying was that the gaze that came from all directions, so sharp, so scorching, so naked/naked, like a sharp knife, stabbed fiercely on the surface of his skin, taunting, mocking, contempt, anger, ridicule, exclusion, sympathy, surprise, consternation...... Countless and countless emotions swarmed in, and a strong sense of shame made him want to disappear immediately, disappear without a trace.

Everyone was adamant that Winery would lose, even the other wineries in the New World. It is impossible to imagine what a cruel and cold situation they will face after the failure of the wineries. But now, the situation of Ducass Winery and Yunding Winery has been reversed, and all the humiliation is borne by Ducass Winery.

Moreover, double.

Everyone was expecting a victory for Château Ducas, a hearty victory, and everyone took it for granted. When a matter of course is overturned, the waves of shock are tenfold, hundredfold.

For New World Winery, this is a time of ewe and pride, and Château du Cass is their sacrifice; For Old World wineries, it was a time of rage and humiliation, and the eyes of accusation fell collectively on the shoulders of the winery.

For onlookers, those who participated in the market, almost all of them lost their bets. Before that, almost everyone thought it was a sure-fire game, with a win rate of 99.9 percent, but the remaining 0.1 percent happened miraculously. And the miracle is created by the winery of Ducas, which is not a positive one.

From heaven to hell, it's just a gap between the two names on the list.

William looked at Lu Li, Tony and Fred who were celebrating wantonly in front of him in a daze, raised his anger high, and then fell heavily, smashing directly to the ground at the speed of free fall, falling to pieces, and in the end, only the shame that could not be shaken off made him want to escape, flee quickly.

Then William saw the gaze of Jack and Brian, stunned with a hint of panic, sympathy with a hint of pity. Only then did he remember that Ducass Winery was his, and Jack and Brian were just his friends, which also meant that all the humiliation had to be borne by him alone. Feeling these two sights, like the last straw that crushed the camel, he turned around, walked quickly, left, and fled in the wilderness, like a lost dog.

Looking at the back of William leaving, Jack and Brian were also a little flustered, but in hesitation, they still didn't follow after all, looked left and right, and walked away in another direction.

"Big Gold Award! Big Gold Award! Tony shouted cheerfully and wantonly, then looked around, looking for William, "What about them?" What about the boring little people? ”

Because of Tony's relationship, Lu Li and Fred also stopped and subconsciously looked around, but Lu Li immediately reacted and patted Tony on the shoulder, "Since they are boring clowns, why should we bother with them?" ”

In this duel, they won, which is very important, because Lu Li knows that if they lose, they are afraid that the ending will be worse, unimaginably worse; But now, they've won, and the showdown is over, and that's all. Add insult to injury? Lu Li disdained to do it because he didn't want to be like the other party.

More important than winning or losing, Winery has won recognition, and the Grand Gold Award is the first step, which also means that they have temporarily gained a foothold in the wine world, opened up the situation, and the future suddenly becomes bright, which is the perfect result after a year of hard work on the entire farm.

Now, instead of focusing on a winery owner who has only known him for a few days, he should focus on his own winery and start planning for the future.

"Jumping clown." Fred repeated, and then laughed heartily, if he remembered correctly, Ducas Winery was one of the hottest wineries of recent years, with a clear reputation and a lot of supporters. But now, he has become a clown in Lu Li's mouth, which is like a joke, "Yes, those clowns who jump off the beam are not the point." ”

Tony is not a narrow-minded person, the reason why he thought of William and the others was only because William and they were too much a few days ago, and the clay man still had three points of fire. Now that he came to his senses, Tony waved his hand and left them behind nonchalantly, "Yes, it's about us now." Fourteen, should we give the ranch a phone call and tell them the good news? ”

Lu Li narrowed his eyes and looked at Tony playfully, "Honestly, you should want to call Randy, right?" ”

At the beginning of the year, Randy had been showing off his might for a while, and now it was Tony's turn.

Tony didn't feel weak at all, but bravely puffed up his chest, "What's the matter, if you allow him to show off, won't you allow me?" ”

"Yes, of course I do." Lu Li raised his hands in surrender.

"What is allowed?" A laughing voice came from the side, breaking the conversation circle between the three people, turning around to look, Lu Li saw Mark, only Mark, no Robinson and Raymond. Mark took the initiative to step forward and gave Lu Li a polite hug, "Congratulations." ”

Mark took half a step back and walked through Mark's shoulder, Lu Li could see the eyes projected around him, and many people showed polite and friendly eyes, nodded and congratulated. Still, you can see some people turning away, and you don't have to guess to know that it must be the people of the Old World Winery, who don't want to celebrate the victory of Cloud Top Winery.

"Right now, you're hot." Mark said with a smile.

"I don't think so." Lu Li is trying to keep himself calm, this is only the first year of Yunding Winery, and there is still a long way to go. However, it is not an easy task to remain calm at this moment, and the upturned corners of his mouth reveal the joy in his heart.

Mark's expression also softened a little, and it could be seen that he was sincerely for Lu, "Do you know what the score of Cloud Top Winery is?" "The specific score is available and will be made public, and any wine lover can check it, but Lu Li has just learned about the list and has not had time to check it.

"Ninety-eight and a half." Mark didn't sell it, and immediately said the answer, "There are a total of 21 wines that have received such scores this year, and this is the highest score, including Winery at the Top of the Clouds." You are on the same level as Rafi and Pauillac, and this year Romani Conti is 96 points. ”

Surprised, truly surprised, Lu Li and Tony exchanged glances, and then Lu Li joked, "Now, we are really the same level of winery as Romanée Conti." "The original joke has now come true, I didn't expect that Yunding Winery can really reach such a level.

"It's incomparable in time, but at least the score is catching up." Tony is also energetic and energetic, and Fred, who was standing next to him, complained, "The source of customers is not a level. ”

"There will always be." Mark said calmly, "I'm the first, and I'm wondering, can I order twelve cases of Pinot Noir from Château Clouds?" ”
