Episode 24 recap: Yu Han handed over the key evidence to Ou Yang Yi Xing.

Soon, the official invitation for the International Wine Tasting Competition was set in the eastern foothills of Helan Mountain, which greatly pleased Qin He Ming, and the major wineries were also among the invited participants. For Qi Lu, this was a good opportunity for them to prove the quality of their wine region to the world. Similarly, Liu Li Jun reminded Qiu Yi Han that if her winery could be rated as a second-tier winery, she would immediately sign a contract with her.

Reno still did not give up trying to trip up China's wine industry, and stated that this was a war, and even though they might seem united on the surface, they would eventually fight each other to the bitter end. However, Yu Han quietly made a backup recording of his conversation with Reno and handed it over to Ou Yang Yi Xing, so that she could use the recording to report Reno and uncover the many things he had done.

In the following days, Qi Lu threw himself wholeheartedly into researching the vineyard, and the mechanized trellis trial finally achieved great success, filling everyone with joy. Professor Wang inspected the Star Winery and believed that although the frost would affect the wine's taste, this might also be an opportunity for them to create a unique Pinot Noir classic.

Qin He Ming took Zheng Yang to visit the retired Director Chen, and found that Director Chen had unique insights into the development of the wine region. Due to the limitations of his position, Director Chen did not want to report these suggestions to the party committee of the autonomous region, so he planned to print them into a booklet for interested comrades to circulate internally.

Zheng Yang had an idea to anonymously upload these suggestions to an online forum, so that everyone could see the valuable advice without feeling the pressure of Director Chen's identity. Director Chen greatly appreciated Zheng Yang's suggestion and entrusted him to handle the matter. Due to Zhang Bo Rao's report, Hu Jian Min encountered some trouble and lost two business deals, causing Qiu Yi Han to lose a cooperation opportunity as well.

Ou Yang Yi Xing was well aware that once Qi Lu's new technology was promoted, it would lead to a crisis of unemployment for many workers, and she felt very uncomfortable about it. Everyone else also recognized this, and decided to go out to work to avoid burdening Ou Yang Yi Xing. Yu Han drowned his sorrows in the bar, and got into an argument with the bartender because he didn't have enough money to buy a drink.

At this time, Reno recognized that Yu Han was Liu Li Jun's former chief assistant, and immediately started to scheme, proactively approaching him to get to know him better. Soon, the villagers were waiting by the roadside with their bags, preparing to leave home to work elsewhere. Ou Yang Yi Xing, upon hearing this, rushed frantically after the buses, pleading with them in earnest to stay.

Although everyone was in distress, they deliberately said heartless words to make Yi Xing get off the car. Just as Yi Xing sank into a state of grief, she suddenly heard the sound of the car starting up, and when she turned back, she found that everyone was standing in front of her, making her burst into laughter.

Regarding the matter of the villagers and elders having to leave their hometown, Qi Lu felt a bit guilty and regretful that he had announced the technology without considering their feelings. But he now believes that this technology can be applied to the late-maturing varieties that are more prone to frost attacks, while the other varieties can remain unchanged, so that no one will lose their job.

As the wellness town project got on track, the grape management committee was also officially established. Qin He Ming invited industry professionals to the meeting, and Liu Li Jun publicly announced the list of cooperative partners, including Star Estate Winery and Jianmin Winery, but Qiu Yi Han's Aedelborg Winery was conspicuously absent. When Qiu Yi Han asked about the reason, Liu Li Jun said that she had already told her not to be overly hasty, but she still showed no improvement. If she is truly determined to work wholeheartedly, there will be opportunities for future cooperation.

On the other side, Ou Yang Yi Xing proactively proposed to invest in the wellness town's tourism projects to create more job opportunities, which earned the approval of Qin He Ming. At the same time, the hospital brought good news that Ou Yang Bin's condition had further improved, much to everyone's delight. The entry of Liu Li Jun's company has also paved the way for the entire Helan Mountain East foothill region to expand its grape wine sales market in southern China, marking the beginning of a new journey to enter the domestic and international markets.

Time flew, and in 2012, another batch of young party members were sworn into the Star Estate Winery's party branch. Just as everything was going well, the development of China's grape wine industry caught the attention of foreign competitors. Distributor Laino put pressure on Liu Li Jun, but she completely disregarded the other party, completely enraging Laino and his associates, who secretly plotted a series of sinister schemes.

Before long, Ou Yang Yi Xing received news that a batch of Star Estate Winery's wines had been detained by customs, citing the reason that they had failed to make accurate declarations. Xu Jing investigated and found that the logistics company had replaced the wine with regular goods to save costs, and this batch of goods was discovered. She immediately investigated the company's shipment situation over the past three years and found no issues, except for this one incident.

Qi Lu had his own views on this matter, believing that it was unlikely to be a coincidence and more likely to be a deliberate act. On the other hand, Gao Yu Jie, inspired by what Xie Yong said, made adjustments to herself, becoming more sincere in her work and earning the trust of Qiu Yi Han, who allowed her to freely enter the fermentation workshop. After the dinner, Qiu Yi Han asked Gao Yu Jie to go home first, and the next moment, Laino called Qiu Yi Han for a conversation.

However, even if Qiu Yi Han wants to develop Aedelborg Winery, she can still distinguish right from wrong. She outwardly dealt with Laino, but secretly informed Qin He Ming of the other party's plot and discussed strategies.
