That evening, Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu drove back to the vineyard.
"Mr. Lin, Ms. Song, you're back. By the way, Ms. Zhang asked me to assist you with the acquisition of the vineyard. If you need anything, please let me know."
Old Jack was the old housekeeper of the vineyard, serving Zhang Lihua's family his entire life. Later, due to the changes in the world, Zhang Lihua's family was reduced to just her, and she returned to China with her husband.
Only old Jack remained on the vineyard, waiting for his owner to return.
Time flies, and twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye.
The once spirited and hopeful middle-aged man now has graying temples, but he has never given up his persistence—waiting for the new owner who can revitalize the vineyard.
Finally, one day, the wheel of fate began to turn, and Jack finally welcomed his long-awaited new master: Miss Song and her husband, Mr. Lin.
This young couple, brimming with dreams and passion, are ready to make their mark on this fertile land and transform the vineyard into a larger and more influential industrial base.
Faced with such a rare opportunity for development, Ms. Song and Mr. Lin decided without hesitation to expand their existing vineyard.
So they sought help from the experienced and loyal old Jack.
Lin Chengyu smiled and said to Old Jack, "Then we'll have to trouble you, Old Jack. We only have a superficial understanding of running a vineyard, and we'll have to rely on your guidance!"
After hearing this, Old Jack patted his chest heartily and replied confidently, "Don't be so polite with me. It would be my greatest honor to serve you. Rest assured, I will do everything in my power to give you the strongest support!"
Over the next few days, Old Jack tirelessly led Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu to visit one by one the surrounding vineyards that were open for sale.
Wherever they went, he would explain the advantages and disadvantages of each garden to the two of them in detail.
Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu listened attentively, occasionally digging deeper into certain key issues, revealing their keen interest in the business.
Through this field trip, they not only gained a wealth of professional knowledge about the operation and management of vineyards, but also deeply appreciated the unparalleled beauty and tranquil atmosphere of nature.
This valuable experience undoubtedly laid a solid foundation for their future success in expanding their careers.
“Old Jack, the vineyards we visited today are all quite nice. Why don’t we buy them all? After all, they’re all nearby, which will make it easier for you to manage them in the future.”
Song Ziqing discovered that these vineyards are currently affected by the economic crisis, and prices are generally low, making it the perfect time to buy at the bottom.
Due to the economic crisis, Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu took advantage of the high gold prices to sell most of the gold they had acquired in China and convert it all into cash, which they planned to use to buy gold in Europe and the United States at bargain prices.
Old Jack thought that Song Ziqing and her husband would only buy one or two estates, but now, judging from her words, they intend to make a major foray into the vineyard and wine industry.
Bordeaux wines are considered among the best and most exemplary in the global wine industry.
This place is like an oasis of wine, with countless wineries scattered like stars, each containing endless stories and legends. And the number of wine brands that have stood out from this vast sea of wine is too many to count.
First and foremost is Lafite, which has become one of the representatives of Bordeaux red wines with its outstanding quality and unique flavor; next is Mouton Rothschild, which has won worldwide acclaim for its exquisite winemaking techniques and adherence to tradition; then there is Latour, whose rich and mellow taste seems to tell the story of the passage of time; Margaux, on the other hand, presents a feminine softness and grace with its elegant and delicate style; Haut-Brion, as one of the five great Bordeaux estates, has always maintained a noble and elegant temperament; finally, we must mention Petrus, a rare and precious wine known as the "King of Wines," whose rarity is self-evident.
These Bordeaux wine brands each shine with their own unique brilliance, collectively forging Bordeaux's unshakeable position on the world wine stage.
Whether they are wine connoisseurs or enthusiasts, they are all eager to taste their wonderful flavors.
Every bottle of Bordeaux red wine is a crystallization of nature and human wisdom, carrying history, culture, and emotions, making people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.
"Buy them all? That's quite an investment, Miss Song," Old Jack said in surprise.
Song Ziqing smiled confidently, "I believe in the potential of these vineyards, and now is the perfect time to buy them at rock-bottom prices. We can integrate them to create a top-tier wine brand."
Lin Chengyu nodded. "I agree with Ziqing's idea. However, we need a professional team to help with management and operation."
Old Jack thought for a moment, “I know some experienced brewers and marketing experts who I might be able to introduce to you.”
Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu exchanged a glance, a hint of excitement flashing in their eyes. "Great! This way we can achieve our goal even faster."
In the days that followed, Song Ziqing and Lin Chengyu were busy negotiating with the owners of various vineyards and preparing to assemble a professional team.
After a long period of meticulous planning and preparation, their grand vision is gradually being pieced together, and an unprecedented wine kingdom is about to emerge!
In this field brimming with limitless possibilities, they will forge ahead with fearless courage and innovative spirit, creating new frontiers and achieving brilliance.
Lafite became an important milestone on their journey to pursue their dreams—a legendary brand admired by the world.
It represents top quality, superior craftsmanship, and an unparalleled taste experience; it also symbolizes an industry benchmark and a timeless classic.
It is precisely because of this respectable and extremely challenging goal that groups of ambitious people are increasingly determined to emulate Lafite and strive to surpass it!
After a period of effort, most of the vineyards in the Bordeaux region have been acquired.
However, the couple was not satisfied with this. They then turned their attention to other famous wine regions—Burgundy, the Alps, the Loire Valley, and the Rhône Valley—and purchased a small vineyard in each of these places.
These actions were merely a series of carefully planned preliminary steps.
