Helan Winery welcomed a group of visitors in suits and leather shoes. Standing at the front of the crowd was Mai Miao.
Today, Mai Miao is wearing a simple and elegant white suit and a pair of black high heels. The combination of black and white makes her look very capable and simple, giving people the feeling of a strong woman.
Among the crowd, a mellow middle-aged man with narrowed eyes asked with a smile while observing the factory area.
"Mr. Bai, can you tell me why you chose to make red wine in the first place?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone at the scene agreed.
"Mr. Bai, if I remember correctly, Helan Winery is the first large-scale winery in Ning Province, right? How did you come up with the idea of starting this business?"
"Yes, Mr. Bai, what did you think at the beginning?"
Mai Miao looked around and saw that everyone had this question, smiled slightly and said.
"Actually, this decision was made by Eunuch E. He only said that the climate conditions in Ninh Province are very suitable for growing grapes. The soil and climate conditions here are very similar to the Rhone River Basin, the famous wine grape producing area in France."
"Every boss is determined to invest in a winery. They must all know that the poorer the lime soil, the more high-quality grapes can be produced. This is because poor quality soil can effectively control the nutritional content of grapes and ensure the maximum fruit production.
maturity and improve quality.”
"In addition, the low temperature and lack of rain here in autumn is conducive to the formation of pigments and flavor substances, which can make the grapes bright in color and rich in aroma, which is particularly suitable for making high-quality wine, especially dry red wine."
"At this point, even the Bordeaux region can't compare with us."
"It can be said that the eastern foothills of Helan Mountain is one of the best wine-producing areas in China and even the world."
"So, bosses, if you want to do this kind of business, you have to hurry up. As far as I know, in recent days, several groups of people have gone to the county to talk about attracting investment."
Hearing this news, the man with narrowed eyes was moved. Although Mr. Bai in front of him only owns a winery with an investment of several million, and his net worth is not even as good as his, he will not underestimate him because of this.
Because behind this woman stands a man, her husband - Ma Debao.
At the same time, she is also Ma Defu's sister-in-law.
Of these two men, one is a local business giant and the other is a rising star in local politics. The former is not only the executive president of the Ning Province Chamber of Commerce, but also the vice president of the Yinchuan Chamber of Commerce in Fujian Province.
The latter is now the deputy county magistrate of Yongning County, mainly in charge of Yongning County's investment promotion work.
Not only that, even if you exclude these two people and just look at this winery, its influence cannot be underestimated.
Helan Winery is the first large-scale private winery in Ning Province. A few years ago, Helan Winery was a small winery located in the northwest region.
It wasn’t until 2005 that the ‘Helan Red 2005’ produced by Helan Winery signed up to participate in the most authoritative international wine competition - the Decanter World Wine Competition.
In this competition, ‘Helan Red 2005’ stood out from tens of thousands of red wines and won the grand prize for dry red wine under 10 pounds.
(Decer, DETER in English, translated as Decanter in Taiwan, is a monthly magazine published by IPC Media in England. It was founded in 1975. It is a professional magazine that introduces wines from all over the world. The wine competition it holds is the largest in the world.
, the most influential wine competition.)
Since then, Helan Winery has become an instant hit and has become world-famous in the industry. Well-known domestic wine producers such as Dynasty, Changyu, and Great Wall, as well as the internationally renowned producer Hennessy, have successively set their sights.
Invest in this unknown little winery.
At the same time, Bai Maimiao, the owner of Helan Winery, also came into the sight of many wine merchants and officials.
Therefore, although Baimai Miao is a newcomer in the industry, it is quite well-known. Nian Mian believes that he is still somewhat famous in the local area, but if compared with Baimai Miao, it is still far behind.
The people who came to visit the winery today were all investors who were interested in investing in red wine projects. The reason why Mai Miao took everyone to visit was entirely out of the desire to help Ma Defu.
After all, Ma Defu is now the deputy county magistrate in charge of investment promotion.
In addition, if this group of people choose to invest locally, they can also create some jobs.
According to Helan Winery, the winery now has about 100 hectares of grape plantations. The plantations alone can absorb more than 100 laborers. In addition, the manor also has production workshops and specialized sales companies.
Added together, the number of employees at Helan Winery exceeds 350.
Of course, Helan Winery is a relatively large wine production base, but even a small estate with only a dozen hectares must recruit at least more than fifty employees.
In the past month, Maimiao has received five or six waves of inspection groups, each with about ten people.
Most of the people who can come to the manor for on-site inspection are investors with strong investment intentions. What Mai Miao just said is not just rhetoric, but solid facts.
Ten years later, Ning Province Red Wine is no longer an unknown entity. The reason why Ning Province Red Wine can rise rapidly is inseparable from the strong support of the government.
In 2004, the official released a report on China's agricultural production zoning. Among the 34 provincial-level administrative regions in the country, only Ning Province listed wine as a key development industry.
It is precisely because of the sincerity of the Ning Provincial Government that many red wine production companies have settled in the eastern foothills of Helan Mountain.
Since then, wine has ushered in spring in Ning Province. With the arrival of large wine merchants, the remaining small wine merchants have heard the news and followed it to the east foot of Helan Mountain.
Later, Helan Winery’s ‘Helan Red 2005’ won an international award, pushing the flow of wine merchants to a new peak.
Over the past few years, red wine production bases have been built in the Yuquanying area. However, as we all know, land is limited, and not all land is suitable for growing grapes.
With the influx of wine merchants, there are fewer and fewer places to grow grapes in the Yuquanying area.
Originally, the work of attracting investment was very difficult, especially for the northwest region, where the climate, transportation, infrastructure, etc. are not as good as those in the southeast region.
But now that high-quality land suitable for wine growing has become a resource, the relationship between investors and the government is completely reversed.
Now, investors are rushing to settle in Yuquanying.
As far as she knows, in the past week, more than ten investors have signed agreements of intent with the county. The fastest, even the land payment has been paid to the county.
