In New York, the H.C.D. flagship store is full of people, inviting not only the big connoisseurs of the wine industry, but also some representatives of wine merchants and the wealthy. It's just that they all taste wine in the hall, and the experts do it in a small meeting room.

Zhen Fan and Sampson personally entertained these connoisseurs in the small conference room, and the hall was mainly arranged with sexy beauties, wearing sexy uniforms, which can be regarded as following the trend, and fine wine and beauty complement each other.

In addition to veteran Pete Gandalf and Jayne Forbes, there were several wine experts who are well-known in the United States.

Pete Gandalf pinched the stem of the goblet with his fingers, gently turned it counterclockwise, then lowered his head and put his nose in the glass to sniff, took a sip, closed his eyes and slowly savored it. Although a glass of wine is strictly only a third full, the whole drinking process seems to be a little slow.

"You usually drink like that?" Zhen Fan sat aside, leaned over, and whispered to Sampson in a holy tone that only two people could hear.

"Sometimes it's like this!" Sampson actually nodded very seriously.

Zhen Fan was stunned for a moment, then looked at him in surprise and smiled: "Do you know how I drink wine?" ”

"Like them?"

"No, I usually fill a glass and drink it dry!" Zhen Fan smiled and shook his head, "Sampson, I found that you are really good at lying, in fact...... I've seen you drink like I did! ”

"Well, you can see it. I do...... It's like you drink, because when I drink I can't help but want to get drunk, if I drink like them. You might as well kill me! Sampson chuckled, "But...... In front of the big guys, I'll still be like them, although...... Very unpleasant! ”

It's hard to imagine these two guys, one making world-class wines, and the other vowing to build the world's number one wine empire. There is such a vulgar drinking habit. If you let the experts who are frowning, stretching, and smiling at each other know. It's going to hurt.

"Alas—" Pete Gandalf sighed and shook his head first, and then sat down in his chair in a daze, as if he were thinking about something serious.

"What's wrong?" Although I know that the quality of the wine is very good. Sampson's heart was still racing. couldn't help but ask, he didn't want DC's brand to be smashed like this. After all, this tasting will be followed by a press conference, and Pete Gandalf and Jain Forbes will also be in attendance.

"I don't know what to say, it's supposed to be very good, the second best wine I've tasted!" Pete Gandalf nodded, a smile on his face. "Just ......"

"Just what? What kind of wine is the number one wine? "Sampson was a little impatient.

Zhen Fan took Shanmpson's hand and said in a low voice, "Don't worry. Hear out Mr. Gandalf! He sat there calmly, without the slightest hint of urgency.

"The first place is H.C.D., and when I first tasted H.C.D. from you, I felt incredible, because it is really possible to taste emotions in wine in this world. So I thought it was the best sake in the world. ”

"Yes, I couldn't agree more with Mr. Gandalf!"

At this time, Jayne Forbes, who was sitting next to Pete Gandalf, also spoke, and he put down his glass, which was already empty, and it seemed that he was very devoted.

"I've been making wine for decades, but I've never made a wine as moving as H.C.D., and I have to say, in terms of winemaking, I'm not as good as you! You're the best! ”

The evaluation of this sound like a little flattering to ordinary people, but what they don't know is that this is the innermost words of Jain Forbes, he also has a purpose today, that is, he wants to exchange wine with Zhen Fan, although some may involve business secrets, but he does want Zhen Fan to solve a few doubts in his heart. Even at some cost is acceptable.

"But...... I'm a little confused too! Jain Forbes conclusively added.

"Because it's the second?" Sampson said to Jain Forbes, "I know it's not as good as the H.C.D., but ...... Because it is mass production, it is understandable that large-scale production cannot reach the H.C.D of craft brewing! ”

"Well, that's exactly what I wanted to say." Pete Gandalf said and nodded, "The taste of the wine is not much different from H.C.D, but it is not a grade in the aftertaste, but it is ...... I believe that once such a wine is on the market, the price of luxury goods has faded, and all that remains is the enthusiasm of wine lovers! ”

"Thank you very much," Zhen Fan nodded at Gandalf.

"But...... Mr. Gandalf sighed just now, for what? Sampson still had this in mind, and he felt he had to figure it out, because it was about the future of his wine empire.

"I'm just sorry...... If you can achieve the quality of H.C.D. and can form mass production, it will be the best of both worlds. So......" Gandalf smiled, "but ...... Things can't always be perfect, because that would make God jealous! ”

"Haha, Gandalf, you said what I wanted to say!" Forbes also laughed on the sidelines, "It's just...... I have a lot of winemaking questions to ask! ”

"You want to make wine like this?" Gandalf looked at Forbes in surprise.

"I want to, but...... It's impossible for me to replicate Mr. Zhen's work and the secret method of making wine, so I just asked Mr. Zhen about some of my doubts in the winemaking process, and it is great to be able to improve the quality of my winemaking, and I can't imagine that I will make such a fine wine one day! Forbes was blunt.

After the wine tasting in the small conference room finally set the tone with the two most authoritative masters, the rest of the people began to echo the opinions of Pete Gandalf and Jain Forbes, and finally formed a unified tone, and then held a press conference.

Zhen Fan's DC wine, before it has been officially distributed nationwide, has already become famous, on the one hand, because many stars are still on the scene, and on the other hand, because of the name of H.C.D. If you add the information released by an authoritative person this time, it is estimated that it will be difficult not to be popular.

There are not many reporters at the press conference, but basically there are reporters from the most authoritative traditional media and new media in the United States, after all, this is not a big news.

"Mr. Gandalf, is DC wine really as good as advertised?"

"Yes, even better than what is advertised, I once said to the winemaker Mr. Zhen at the wine tasting just now, this is the second best wine in the world!" Gandalf said, "Of course, the number one is also H.C.D. from Mr. Zhen, and I don't think I need to say more about the reputation of this wine!" ”

"Second in the world? Is there a suspicion of exaggeration? "The reporter only said this, is there any exchange of interests behind your back?

"No, I'm using my reputation as a wine tasting for more than thirty years and my professional reputation as a guarantee." Gandalf said solemnly, "Please believe me! ”

Zhen Fan took the microphone at this time and said: "After the press conference, there will be a wine tasting specially prepared for you, and only professional reporters like you are qualified to taste wine." Let's speak with facts! ”

"I can also guarantee Mr. Zhen!" At this time, Jain Forbes on the side also interjected.

Jain Forbes's words undoubtedly increased the bargaining chips of Gandalf's words, so that many reporters had to seriously consider the veracity of their words.

Of course, at the subsequent tasting, almost all the reporters had to admit after the tasting that the words of Mr. Gandalf and Mr. Forbes were very accurate.

When the reporters' wine tasting was going on, Forbes impatiently pulled Zhen Fan into the small conference room, this time only the two of them stayed inside, and Gandalf and Sampson had to stay outside, drinking and chatting with those reporters, and repeatedly explaining to those reporters who still had doubts.

After the two of them circled around and walked to a corner, Gandalf looked at the door of the small conference room with some envy and said to Sampson, "I'm a little jealous of Mr. Forbes." If I can also make wine, I will definitely follow up and discuss it with Zhen Fan. ”

"Don't worry about this, I have prepared a little heart for you, and it is also a heart that you deserve!" Sampson said mysteriously to Gandalf, "Do you know, in fact, among the wines made by Mr. Zhen, the best wine to drink is not H.C.D., but another wine, which is improved on the basis of H.C.D, and the degree is much higher than it. It's just that this wine is not sold to the outside world. I'm in charge, and I've got two bottles for you and Forbes, one for each of you! ”

"What?" Gandalf felt something was wrong with his ears.

"Yes, you heard it right, I'll give you and Mr. Forbes a bottle of wine that tastes better than H.C.D. and is not available on the market. If you want to have a drink first, I can take you to my office, but ...... I also only have one bottle in my collection. ”

"Of course, more than willingly!" Gandalf was a little impatient.

"Follow me!" Sampson shook his head at Gandalf, and the two of them quietly slipped aside and entered Sampson's office, where Sampson pulled out a bottle of wine from a secret compartment in a cabinet, and looked the same as H.C.D.

The wine poured out slowly, and then the aroma of the wine slowly soaked into Gandalf's heart.

"Good wine!" Before he could start drinking, Gandalf couldn't help but scream loudly, and then Sampson's hand shook, and stopped, just a quarter of a cup, Gandalf couldn't help but feel a pain in his flesh, if he screamed a little later, wouldn't he be able to drink half a cup?
