Chapter 2555: The exchange meeting begins
Translator: 549690339
To get off topic, after Wu Hai heard that Yuan Zhou was going to hold some exchange meeting, he had been jumping up and down, hoping to be able to attend it. The exchange meeting meant that there would be a lot of delicious food. How could he miss out on the delicious food?
It was a pity that only the big shots of the brewery or the wine tasting world were invited to complete the mission this time. At the very least, they were all people related to wine. As an artist, even if he was a well-known artist, he had nothing to do with wine. Therefore, Yuan Zhou refused Wu Hai’s rude request very nimbly.
Was Wu Hai a beast that would listen to Yuan Zhou’s refusal? obviously not. Just when Wu Hai was considering whether he should develop some secondary industries, such as acquiring a brewery or directly start one, Mao Xiong took action.
She had a brewery in her hands. Although it was overseas, she had to treat it as a brewery, especially since it was not a small one.
Moreover, she didn’t even need Yuan Zhou’s help. She directly found the China winemaking a.s.sociation and said that their winery wanted to partic.i.p.ate in the exchange.
At that time, as Wu Hai received the news earlier, as the first foreign winery that requested to attend the exchange meeting, he got the quota smoothly.
Back to the main topic, it was soon time for the exchange meeting to start. Yuan Zhou cleaned up the kitchen, washed up and changed his clothes before walking to the opposite side of the street.
With Yuan Zhou’s speed, the distance from the meeting place to the restaurant was less than 5 minutes. Therefore, he walked at a relatively uniform speed.
As soon as he walked to the opposite side, he saw Wan Xinran waiting for him downstairs. She was waiting for Yuan Zhou.
When she saw Yuan Zhou, Wan Xinran immediately walked to Yuan Zhou in her high heels,””Head chef Yuan, you are here. Let me lead the way.”
...
Although Yuan Zhou had said that he wouldn’t let anyone pick him up, he could still lead the way. Wan Xinran volunteered to be the guide. First, it was because of Yuan Zhou’s ident.i.ty and status. If she wanted to pick him up, she really needed a person with enough weight. Second, after several contacts with Yuan Zhou, she had been conquered by both the dishes he cooked and his character. Thus, Wan Xinran felt very respectful to him.
“I’m sorry to trouble you,” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and thanked her.
With Wan Xinran’s guidance, Yuan Zhou soon arrived at the entrance of the venue. A huge banner hung at the entrance with the words ‘Yuan Yafeng China liquor exchange meet’, which were simply s.h.i.+ning.
That’s right. Normally, the banners were written in white on a red background for the sake of being clearly visible. However, this time, the banner was written in gold on a red background. Apart from being s.h.i.+ny, it was quite harmonious. However, Yuan Zhou felt that although it looked good, it didn’t really match his low-key character.
“It’s also out of good intentions. ” Yuan Zhou straightened his back again without a trace and only walked inside when he felt that his image should be perfect.
Yuan Zhou was still wearing the Han Chinese traditional clothing today. However, in order to express the grandness of today’s occasion, he naturally wore a loose robe with large sleeves. Even the color of the robe was a more mature purple. The corners of the robe and the edge of the lapels were outlined with faint Lotus patterns, which was quite in line with the image of master chef Restaurant.
As soon as he entered the door, the noise was endless. It could be said that the inside and outside of the door were two different worlds, because he had not heard a single sound outside the door.
Yuan Zhou specially reminded Jiang Tang and the others to modify the soundproofed walls. After all, there were many people here and they needed to taste more than one type of wine. If someone got drunk and went crazy, at least the soundproofed walls would be good and the neighbors wouldn’t be disturbed. As the successor of socialism, Yuan Zhou felt that this was something he should pay attention to.
The exchange meeting was about to start. Although everyone was chatting, they were always looking at the door from the corner of their eyes. Therefore, as soon as the door was opened and Yuan Zhou stepped in, he was noticed by many people.
Therefore, many people started to crowd towards the door. Led by President Wan zongniang of the Chinese martial arts a.s.sociation, they also walked towards Yuan Zhou with Jiang Tang and the others.
“Good afternoon, chief Yuan. Please come in.”
Master Wan didn’t make too many small talk, and there were many master brewers and grandmasters behind him who had partic.i.p.ated in the monkey wine tasting before, so he didn’t need to introduce himself. Almost all of them greeted each other and then walked towards the innermost platform.
The exchange meeting led by Yuan Zhou naturally needed him to go up and say a few words before it could start. Moreover, there wasn’t much time left. Master Wan brew knew that Yuan Zhou would open his restaurant in the evening, so he didn’t waste any time.
The rostrum was different from the rostrum of other meetings. It was just a small stage slightly higher than the venue. There was a microphone on the stage, a red carpet on the ground, and a banner hanging on the wall. Overall, it was similar to the one that tasted the monkey wine before, but it was bigger, livelier, and more people.
Yuan Zhou was used to speaking on such occasions. Under the lead of master wanzong brew, he stood in front of the microphone.
Seeing Yuan Zhou standing in front of the microphone, the people in the audience gradually lowered their voices. After a while, the place became quiet.
Looking around, Yuan Zhou found quite a number of foreigners. One of them had blonde hair and blue eyes, the other had blonde hair and black eyes, and there were even two with black skin. It was really a Grand sight.
“With so many people completing the mission, they should be able to wait for a few days.” Yuan Zhou had an idea in his heart.
After clearing his throat discreetly, Yuan Zhou nodded to the people below and then said,””Today, I welcome everyone to this exchange meeting. The main reason is that I’ve been researching a few new wines recently and I hope that I can taste them with you. I hope that everyone can forgive me for my rough craftsmans.h.i.+p. If you have any opinions, you can voice them out. The exchange meeting will be divided into two days. Today, we’ll taste five new wines, and tomorrow, we’ll have another five. I hope everyone will like them.”
“Pa pa pa”
After saying that, the audience was silent for a full minute before warm applause sounded. It couldn’t be helped. Yuan Zhou was really too scary. He really didn’t make any moves, but once he made a move, it was like a Thunderbolt. Ten new wines. Many master winemakers at the scene had never made so many kinds of wines in their entire lives.
How old was Yuan Zhou? he already had 10 kinds of monkey wine. As for his crude craftsmans.h.i.+p, most people didn’t believe him. With his craftsmans.h.i.+p that could brew the monkey wine, how bad could it be?
Or should it be said that if Yuan Zhou’s craftsmans.h.i.+p was considered bad, then many people on the scene wouldn’t even be qualified to brew wine. After all, they hadn’t brewed any monkey wine or anything of the same level as it.
However, when he looked at Yuan Zhou’s sincere expression, he could only ignore what he said. He had to ignore it. Otherwise, he would feel very aggrieved. Therefore, he clapped his hands desperately to vent his anger. Therefore, his voice became louder and louder.
“I hereby announce the official start of today’s alcohol conference.” After the applause stopped, Yuan Zhou announced the start of the compet.i.tion.
This time, it was quite lively. First, rows of waiters in beautiful ceremonial clothes came out from the back with trays.
There was a beautiful wine bottle on each tray. The small and exquisite porcelain wine bottles were different from the usual ones. They were made of black pottery. Yuan Zhou made them himself and it was also the result of his learning when he went to gan province.
Of course, the people present did not know about this. They only felt that the bottle was quite unique. A few of them had made up their minds to ask where this was custom-made after the exchange meeting. They also wanted it, and it was enough to match their wine.
When he got closer, he realized that the bottle was not simple. There were many patterns painted on it, which added a bit of elegance to the rough bottle.
