Episode 11 recap: Shi Ming Shan officially left the Xing Xing Winery.
The Fujian businessman Hu Jianmin suddenly arrived at the Helan Mountain, and immediately found Qin He Ming and others, stating that he wanted to reclaim and cultivate land here, and plant grapes on all of the 100,000 mu of land. Wei Xue Cheng jokingly teased Hu Jianmin, saying that this Fujian businessman is really bold. Qin He Ming gathered the owners of various wineries for a symposium, and publicly announced that he would take their best wines to participate in the Australian wine tasting competition.
It was precisely because of this that Ou Yang Yi Xing decided to entrust this task to Qi Lu, and summoned the employees, announcing in front of them that the wine for the Australian competition would be handled by Qi Lu. Gao Yu Jie heard this and angrily left. Qiu Yi Han actively contacted Gao Yu Jie, pointing out that she had no development prospects at the Xing Xing Winery, and invited her to join his Aierdebao Winery.
Qi Lu secretly photographed near the Wei Jun Winery, but was discovered by them. Luckily, Ou Yang Yi Xing provided cover, and the two safely escaped. But it was precisely because of Qi Lu's exposure that alerted the Wei army, so they decided to immediately move their goods. Shi Ming Shan learned of this and was very angry, blaming Qi Lu for acting on his own, which had destroyed the trust he had painstakingly accumulated. He reminded them to avoid contact as much as possible to prevent further complications.
The next day, the Wei army came to find Qi Lu, indirectly probing whether he had been to the residential area near the west suburbs the night before. Ou Yang Yi Xing hurried over to help him fend them off, and the two pretended to have an argument, causing the Wei army to leave first. Qiu Guo Dong learned through his connections that a large amount of Port wine was currently circulating on the market, and promptly informed Qiu Yi Han that someone was maliciously counterfeiting and selling fake wine, which would plunge the Xing Xing Winery into a major crisis if exposed.
Qiu Yi Han hurried to warn Ou Yang Yi Xing, but Ou Yang Yi Xing showed a troubled expression, not wanting to disclose the truth. Just then, Qin He Ming called, saying that due to the impact of the fake wine incident, the government leaders had already approved the relevant departments to intervene, and the public security department had also sent people to monitor the wineries, believing the problem would be solved soon.
That night, someone quietly slipped an envelope into the hospital ward, containing a photo of Wei Jun and a loan shark. The person who did this was Tiger Ge. Since Tiger Ge had fallen out with Wei Jun over an uneven distribution of profits, he wanted to use Ou Yang Yi Xing's hand to completely eliminate Wei Jun. Ou Yang Yi Xing discovered that the winery had never received this money, and suspected that the loan certificate was fake. Shi Ming Shan stated that they would proceed according to the plan.
Shi Ming Shan quickly gained the complete trust of the Wei army, discovered their warehouse where they stored counterfeit wine, and told Ou Yang Yi Xing the address. Under the coordination of Qin He Ming, various departments launched a concerted attack, successfully dismantling the Wei army's illicit workshop, and the Wei soldiers were arrested. Ou Yang Yi Xing personally went to the detention center to interrogate them, and the Wei soldiers frankly admitted they did it for the money, and that the high-interest loan documents were also signed under Ou Yang Bin's coercion, which made Ou Yang Yi Xing suddenly understand.
Qin He Ming knew that Zhang Bo Rao was genuinely committed to promoting the red wine market, so he planned to try to get him to manage the leadership group independently, believing that he, like Qi Lu, would make outstanding contributions. At the dinner table, Ou Yang Yi Xing toasted Shi Ming Shan to express gratitude, and Shi Ming Shan recounted the stories from the past, publicly recommending Qi Lu to be the chief winemaker of Star Winery.
The people present were all taken aback, including the apprentice Gao Yu Jie, who had once thought she would take over the chief winemaker position, only to find that Shi Ming Shan entrusted the important role to the outsider Qi Lu. Not long after, the local wine industry guarantee fund was officially established, and the deputy director Chen gave a speech, telling everyone that the era of winery financing difficulties was gone, and the leadership highly valued the wine college, believing that Qin He Ming would definitely run the college well.
Because Qi Lu becoming the chief winemaker made Gao Yu Jie jealous, she constantly targeted Qi Lu in daily life, criticizing him for over-pruning the branches, and the farmers expressed their dissatisfaction. Xu Jing, who saw this scene from a distance, naturally saw the rights and wrongs, and privately comforted Qi Lu not to care about these so-called rumors.
On the other side, the farmers all came to find Ou Yang Yi Xing, complaining that Qi Lu was giving nonsensical orders, and believing that Gao Yu Jie was better than Qi Lu. Ou Yang Yi Xing understood their intentions, and had just explained a bit for Qi Lu, when the farmers expressed their own views again, insisting that Gao Yu Jie was Shi Ming Shan's apprentice, which was equivalent to being his daughter, and they wanted Ou Yang Yi Xing to consider it carefully and not decide on the chief winemaker so easily.
Qiu Yi Han learned that Shi Ming Shan had transferred the chief winemaker position to Qi Lu, and wanted to recruit him to the Aidebu Winery. As long as he had the prestigious label of this wine region, he would not worry about gaining fame, and he hoped that Qiu Guo Dong would persuade the other party. Qin He Ming took the heads of the major wineries to tour the factory, and discovered that a new variety called "Pinot Noir" had been cultivated there. Qiu Yi Han immediately became interested and individually discussed with Qin He Ming about introducing two thousand Pinot Noir vines.
Qin He Ming noticed that everyone had concerns about cooperating with the factory, so he asked Qiu Yi Han to analyze the situation. Qiu Yi Han brought up the obvious problems, and said that Aidebu Winery would fully support the government's work.
