Chapter 877 Arrival at Chateau Lafite!

Mitterrand expressed his welcome to Imperial Group's investment in country F.

The two sides have finished preliminary talks.

At the Elysée Palace, Mitterrand entertained Yang Ming, Barlow, Lin Dezhong and others with a standard F national banquet.

Yang Ming finished attending the state banquet.

Coming out of the Elysée Palace.

After getting into his Rolls-Royce, Sir from Country F personally escorted Yang Ming and his party back to the Castle of Louis XIV.

Night has fallen now.

Yang Ming returned to the gate of Louis XIV Castle.

Waves of cold wind blew.

Yang Ming couldn't help but sneeze and went into the hall. Azhu, Zhong Chuhong, and Guan Jiahui had already come out.

"Master!" Azhu greeted.

"Azhu, I just had dinner at the Elysee Palace. You can go and eat by yourselves."

Yang Ming and Barlow returned to the study first.

The heating is on in the study, which is indeed much more comfortable than outside.

Just now, Yang Ming had already talked with Mitlang about the acquisition of Bosak Group. However, Mitterrand did not respond for the time being.

Beginning in 1978, F Country's largest textile group, which also owns luxury brands such as Dior, has gone bankrupt and has been relying on government financial subsidies to survive.

Since the beginning of this year, the top management of country F, headed by Mitterrand, has begun to loosen up and prepare to privatize these large groups.

In this situation.

The Imperial Group wants to invest in country F, and from the purchase of Airbus by Xiangjiang First Airlines, a subsidiary of the Imperial Group, Mitterrand is very supportive of the Imperial Group's investment in country F.

"Boss, it seems that Mr. Mitterrand still refuses to let go."

Bosak is currently the largest textile giant in country F. Under normal circumstances, it will indeed not sell to foreign investors.

Historically, when Arnault did not have much money, he relied on various relationships, including family relationships, to swallow up the Bossac Group.

At this time, Arnault was still looking for investment opportunities in country M. It was obvious that he had not yet set his sights on Bosak Group.

"Barlow, don't worry. I think more than 30,000 workers of the Bosak Group will hold demonstrations soon. By then, country F will definitely sell the Bosak Group. What we have to do is to further cooperate with Mitt. To build a good relationship, on the other hand, you have to pay attention to a person.”

Yang Ming was talking about Arnault.

In other words, in this acquisition of Bosak Group, the biggest competitor is Arnault. Apart from him, Yang Ming is not worried about others at all.

Barlow took note.

"I will go to Bordeaux to stay for a while in a few days. I will come back when the time is right here."

This time Yang Ming came here to inspect Lafite Manor.

Yang Minghui will go to Chateau Lafite in Bordeaux to stay for a while, which can be regarded as a vacation for himself, Azhu and the others.

. . .

It was the fifth day that Yang Ming came to Paris.

Yang Ming, Lin Dezhong, Lin Xiuzhi, Zhong Chuhong, Guan Jiahui, Ah Zhu and others left the Louis XIV Castle by car and headed to Paris Charles International Airport.

Fly from Paris to Bordeaux Airport.

Barlow remained in Paris.

Yang Ming and his party took his private plane to Bordeaux, arriving in about an hour.

Country F is really not that big, almost the size of an ordinary province in China.

The plane landed safely at Bordeaux Airport.

Yang Ming and others got off the plane and found that the wind was blowing loudly here, and it was as cold here as in Paris.

Bordeaux is known as the world's wine center. The main industrial chain here is almost related to red wine planting, red wine brewing, and red wine estates.

Yang Ming and others just came down.

There are already people here to greet you.

The person who came to greet him turned out to be a butler of the Rothschild family at Lafite Manor. This butler was not a member of the Rothschild family. After Lafite Manor was acquired by the Imperial Group at a high price, he was willing to stay. Come down and manage Lafite Manor.

"Hello Sir Yang."

Violet greeted Yang Ming respectfully.

At this time, Yang Ming was already his new master.

Before Yang Ming came, Barlow had already told him that the current manager of Lafite Manor was an F countryman named Violet, who was in his forties and had been serving the Rothschild family.

After Lafite Manor was sold to the Imperial Group, he stayed.

Yang Ming and others got into the car.

A group of people left here by car.

Along the way, Yang Ming looked outside.

In his previous life, he had been to Bordeaux, and now when he looked out, he found large tracts of vineyards outside, all of which were plantations, but they were all empty.

Grapevines in the Bordeaux region germinate earlier, so they bloom early in May. Most red grape varieties are harvested in September, thus perfectly avoiding the frequent rainfall in October.

Historically, the reason why Lafite was so expensive in 1982 was because of the abnormal weather in Bordeaux that year, which resulted in a particularly low annual production of Lafite.

Things are rare and valuable.

It is precisely because there were not many Lafite red wines that year, and due to the hype of the Rothschild family, the 1982 Lafite red wine is the most famous.

At this time, when Yang Ming came over, it was neither the blooming season nor the picking season in the Bordeaux vineyards.

When I came here and took a quick look, it felt really good.

"Master, is this place dedicated to growing grapes?" Azhu asked.

"Yes, they are all grapes used to make red wine."

This kind of grape is different from the fruit grapes we usually eat.

This kind of brewed grape is very sour and astringent, and it is impossible to eat it directly.

. . .

When Yang Ming took a car to the Lafite Manor.

In addition to the vineyards all around the Lafite Manor, there are typical Bordeaux French buildings here, and a large amount of red wine is hidden under the buildings.

Before this, many Lafite red wines were hidden here.

In many cases, Lafite red wines are not available until a few years later.

From grape picking to bottling and then to the market, the time Lafite experiences varies according to the different grades of Lafite. Ordinary Lafite takes two or three years from picking to brewing, through a series of processes to bottling and selling, while top-level Lafite takes four to five years.

Before this, many Lafite red wines were fermented here and waited for fermentation to be completed before being put on the market.

Like the 1982 Lafite red wine, it is still here in the winery.

"Sir Yang, we are here."

Violet opened the car door for Yang Ming and said.

Yang Ming got out of the car and went inside with Ah Zhu and others.

As soon as he got inside, he smelled the unique smell of red wine.

"Sir Yang, before this, the Rothschild family would send people in person during the wine picking period, so the living here is very good."

Before this, the patriarch of the Rothschild family might not come in person, but the family members would come, especially during the period of Lafite grape picking.

Stay here for a while before going back.

Counting it down, it was about August or September.

It was the first time that Violet greeted Yang Ming when he came here now.

"I came here to see the situation of Lafite Manor this time, which is considered a vacation. During this time, you and Butler Lin will handle the things here together."
