Chapter 997 Winery
In Europe, Paris is a city Li Qian is more familiar with.
Regardless of transfers and the like, he has been here many times, and even stayed alone in this city for several days, but it was the first time to accompany Xie Bing.
In China, Xie Bing is the most popular sweet girl in the domestic music scene today, at the level of a queen, and there has been almost no scandal in these years. The fact that she and Li Qian have already received a certificate has always been covered by the music department of Minghu Culture. It was not announced to the public, which made it a bit difficult for Li Qian to go shopping with her when he was in China.
But even in Europe, in a city like Paris, they have to be careful.
Because both of them are now considered international stars, although they are not the most popular ones, but their popularity is not weak - the four beauties band and Li Qian himself are quite well-known among European movie fans and fans, Rose In the past two years, the power group has been in Europe and the United States, and it is also an influential singing group.
If you visit Paris without any cover, they will be recognized quickly.
In this era, it is already 2004. Don't say that the media is extremely developed, even the Internet is developing rapidly at a rapid pace-if you don't pay attention, the news may be published in the newspaper, and it may be sent back in the blink of an eye. domestic.
Perhaps in Europe and the United States, their scandal can only be regarded as a small earthquake, but if it is reported back to China, it will definitely be a huge earthquake in the entertainment industry!
Therefore, in their schedule, they only arranged to stay in Paris for one day and two nights.
After the plane lands, rest for the night, and accompany her on the Champs-Elysées the next day, to see the Arc de Triomphe and the like—what Xie Bing wants is actually the feeling of Li Qian shopping with her.
When I woke up the next day, the car sent by the winery to pick me up was already waiting under the hotel.
As early as 2000, Qi Jie had already started contacting here. In 2001, the formal negotiation came to an end, and he bought Li Qian a large-scale and well-known winery in the famous red wine producing area of France, but there has been no formal contact. The takeover has always been entrusted to a management team to manage, and Qi Jie also asked the winery to directly seal the inventory. From the time of purchase, it will not sell products to the outside world, and all the wine will be stored.
Until 2002, Qi Jie began to send people to participate in the management. After the Cannes Film Festival last year, he should have realized that Europe may grow into an important overseas base camp for Minghu culture. Qi Jie began to go here frequently Run, recruit people from domestic and local. Up to now, the people she arranged have completely taken over the winery. At present, the winery does not sell products to the outside world, and stores them when they are produced. It has also become a part of Minghu Culture. It is an important foothold for people who are close to Li Qian to come to Europe.
Qi Jie, Liao Liao, He Runqing, Zhou Mo, Xie Bing, Bai Yujing all came to live here for a while.
On the contrary, Li Qian, the master, has not been here so far.
But the conditions are fully met.
Li Qian's winery has been equipped with a professional grape planting team, winemaking team, and villa management and service personnel. When Xie Bing wanted to buy a winery here, she sent a professional negotiating team. , I live in the winery, and the management team of this winery also provided a lot of help.
Up to now, the acquisition has been negotiated, and it is only a matter of signing.
Of course, although Xie Bing bought a winery, she definitely wouldn't manage it herself, and she didn't even bother to organize a team to take care of it, so it was decided from the beginning that it would be handed over to the original team to take care of it. .
The two wineries are very close to each other, so there is no problem at all.
The driver who came to pick up Li Qian and Xie Bing was a local, but the deputy general manager of the winery management team was Chinese. His name was Chen Bo. He graduated from Huaxia Agricultural University. It is said that he specialized in wine making, and later he came to France. Read a master's and a doctorate, and then stayed in France.
It is definitely an expert and master level in red wine brewing.
In order to persuade him to take charge of Li Qian's winery, Qi Jie not only offered him an annual salary of 700,000 US dollars, but also generously gave him a 3% dividend.
Of course, in recent years, the winery has not sold a single bottle of wine, so it must be operating at a loss.
Meet at the entrance of the hotel, then get in the car and go straight to the winery.
We stopped at the winery for lunch at noon, and went to see the new winery Xie Bing bought in the afternoon.
It's funny to say that the two wineries still don't have a name - of course the original name exists and has been used all the time, but Qi Jie thinks that since they bought it, of course they should give them a new name, at least I want a Chinese name.
Chinese people all have the urge to buy land, and they especially love home ownership.
Anything that can be passed down from generation to generation, especially something that can have a fixed output, such as land, such as real estate, such as the current winery, will be particularly valued.
As long as you buy it, you are not ready to let go.
Qi Jie is no exception.
From the time when she wanted to buy properties for Li Qian at home and abroad, and later bought this winery, from the very beginning, she was doing it with the goal of turning it into a century-old property.
Therefore, the wine is hoarded, not sold, and the small money in front of me is not transferred. The villas in the manor have been renovated on a large scale, and some of them have been demolished and rebuilt to make them comfortable to live in. Some winery personnel, after two or three years of slow selection, select the best and weed out the weak, and then hire various professionals in high-tech - the money to buy the manor is not counted, just do these things after buying it, these two or three years In that time, Qi Jie had already poured tens of millions of euros into it.
But yes, the results are impressive.
After seeing the winery over there, after completing the final signing, he came back, drank the wine made in his own winery, and it was the old top-quality wine, and ate delicious French food. Even Li Qian couldn't help but give birth. A kind of "I really want to live here and never go back" thinking.
This is completely the private estate of the former landlord Lao Cai!
Cooks, drivers, servants, and gardeners are all in charge of them - degenerate and corrupt landlords and rich people live! A treat for the wicked bourgeoisie!
Xie Bing was very happy.
Last year, when Qi Jie came over to deal with matters, she also came over to relax, but that time was so comfortable. The most important thing is that this time Li Qian was by her side, and it was all her own.
Eating, drinking, having sex, chatting, being lazy, taking a walk, having sex, having sex again...
Heavenly treat.
However, this comfortable day was interrupted after only one day.
Bai Yujing is here.
Her car stopped in front of the villa, and as soon as she got out of the car, she said weakly to Xie Bing: "Xiao Bing, don't worry, I'm just here to eat and live, I'm definitely not a light bulb, what should you do normally?" Well, just pretend that I don't exist! The point is that living in a hotel is too uncomfortable!"
These words are pathetic.
The key point is that Xie Bing has always been the one with the best popularity. She has a good temper, never provokes troubles, and treats people well, sweet sister, so everyone loves her very much—she is that kind Someone who will make almost everyone willing to treat her well.
Therefore, even though Bai Yujing killed Li Qian and Xie Bing without hesitation when she heard that Li Qian and Xie Bing had come to the winery for vacation, she still had to pretend to be pitiful towards Xie Bing.
After all, what she did would really disturb the two people's world!
But to Li Qian, she was not so polite.
"You said you were going to come here for vacation! If I knew you would come, I would definitely have come here to eat and drink. Living in a hotel is really too frustrating."
Li Qian said, "You can spend more time in Paris, what a wonderful place."
Lao Bai was very disdainful, "Cut, no matter how good it is, where can I go? The Seine River? That's what it's all about! I'm really not interested in the so-called culture here. I think their talented people are better than those in our country. It’s far away. There’s nothing I can do about it, I really can’t be quiet in the country, so I want to run out to relax.”
Li Qian had no choice but to say, "You can come if I don't come. It's not like you haven't come to live before. If you want to come and live, just come and live! I don't ask you to charge money!"
Bai Yujing gave a "cut", but hesitated again, and stopped talking.
Li Qian was a little puzzled, and after a while, she reluctantly said: "It's okay for me to come here when you are here, but what's the matter if I come here every now and then when you're not here? Or do you think I Are you so happy to toss about this and that and have to buy a winery yourself?"
Xie Bingxiao, Li Qian suddenly realized.
No matter how good your relationship is, you are just friends after all, whether it is Zhou Mo, Liao Liao, or Xie Bing, if you say come and live, come and live. They are Li Qian's women, and they live in their own man's property. They don't live for long. fault.
But Lao Bai, no matter how good the relationship is, how can there be someone who always runs away from other people's homes?
That is to say, when Li Qian is here, or when Xie Bing, Zhou Mo, and the others come to live, she can come and stay for a few days-this is different, it is called visiting.
This is Bai Yujing's logic.
But looking at it the other way around, this is not quite right, so why does Mao Xie Bing also want to buy a winery?
She can live in it steadily!
Li Qian was too busy in the past. Since Qi Jie said he wanted to buy this winery, he bought it, and started to tidy up after buying it. Li Qian didn't ask much about it. In the past more than a year, he just heard Xie Bing say that he wanted to live in the winery. For a few days, Zhou Mo said that he wanted to live there for a few days, but he didn't think much about it.
At this time, after thinking about it, he turned his head to look at Xie Bing.
When his eyes met, Xie Bing immediately understood what Li Qian wanted to ask.
After hesitating for a moment, she said, "They all have their own houses. Sister Momo has a courtyard house in Yangjuan Hutong, Liao Liao has a villa in Los Angeles, Xiaolu has that mansion, and even Sister Runqing has her own house. Villa. But I want to avoid reporters in China, so I thought, I should also buy a big yard, and I can bring you here for a period of time every year. Moreover, I want to have children in my own big yard... "

Just now when I was writing "啪啪", I suddenly remembered a book. I would like to recommend it to everyone. It was written by China Entertainment, and it was called "Born in 1984". I don’t know the author, but I have read his previous book. To be honest, It's not good, but he has made great progress in this book, and the author's personal writing style is taking shape. If you don't feel disgusted after reading the first 100,000 to 200,000 words, the follow-up will become more and more beautiful. I am chasing.
