Episode 25 recap: The Unity and Spirit of Chinese Winemakers
Over the years, the development of the Helan Mountain East Foothill region has been very challenging, but fortunately, through the efforts of two generations, they now have nearly a thousand varieties of grape wines. Similarly, Shi Ming Shan has been very successful in planting grapes in Xinjiang, and Xie Yong plans to go there to help Shi Ming Shan.
Qi Lu believes that the international community still holds arrogance and prejudice towards China's wine industry, but Professor Wang tells him that as long as they persist in being true to themselves, they will eventually succeed.
Soon, Qi Lu and Ou Yang Yi Xing got married, and they took wedding photos. Qi Lu held Ou Yang Yi Xing's hand and returned to Ou Yang Bin's bedside to make a promise. Ou Yang Yi Xing placed the newlywed photo in Ou Yang Bin's wine cabinet, hoping that when he wakes up, he will see their happiness.
Hearing his daughter's good news, a tear of joy slowly rolled down Ou Yang Bin's cheek. Over the years, the development of the Helan Mountain East Foothill region has been very challenging, but fortunately, through the efforts of two generations, they now have nearly a thousand varieties of grape wines. To express gratitude to the villagers, after discussions with the major wineries and wine producers in the region, it was decided to establish a new winery to give back to the community, and the profits would be collectively owned.
The villagers gathered to celebrate the old Mr. Qi's birthday, and Ou Yang Yi Xing restored the old photos as a gift. Seeing the familiar faces in the old photos, Mr. Qi was filled with mixed emotions, and he was pleased to see the wine industry develop so significantly. The party secretary and others also announced that from then on, they would organize birthday parties for all the elders over 60 years old.
Shi Ming Shan, Qiu Guo Dong, and Xie Yong have been very successful in their grape planting in Xinjiang, and they sent back a group photo to their hometown. Gao Yu Jie, seeing her teacher's happy smile, was genuinely delighted for him. Under Wei Xue Cheng's leadership, the first winery also held a groundbreaking ceremony for the grape seed extraction project.
Qi Lu and Ou Yang Yi Xing took wedding photos and went to visit Ou Yang Bin to share the good news. Qi Lu made a promise by Ou Yang Bin's bedside, and Ou Yang Yi Xing placed the newlywed photo in Ou Yang Bin's wine cabinet, hoping that when he wakes up, he will see their happiness.
Hearing his daughter's good news, a tear of joy slowly rolled down Ou Yang Bin's cheek. The party's "20th National Congress" was successfully held, heralding a new era and a new journey. People in the wine region are all invigorated.
At the world's top wine industry forum, Qi Lu and Ou Yang Yi Xing represented China and traveled overseas to participate.
At the global wine forum, Qi Lu found that there were still misunderstandings about Chinese wine internationally, but with Ou Yang Yi Xing's explanation, his mood gradually improved. Qiu Yi Han's winery was rated as first-class, and Liu Li Jun brought her a contract. Qiu Yi Han's daughter Zhang Xiao Mi finally saw the efforts her mother had made for the wine industry, and understood her hard work and difficulties, so she apologized for her previous temper at the dinner table, and Zhang Bo Rao was deeply moved by the harmonious mother-daughter scene.
Zheng Yang gathered everyone and invited Professor Li Guo Hua. Li Guo Hua told those present that they were developing the wine industry in order to change the local landscape, and although there had been many difficulties and twists and turns during this period, they had ultimately succeeded, and Chinese-made wines were the result of the joint efforts and shared dream of hundreds of millions of Chinese people, inseparable from their selfless dedication and contributions.
At the first commendation ceremony for the wine region, Liu Li Jun and An Nan became the best cooperative partners, while Gao Yu Jie won the honor of Chief Winemaker of the region, greatly pleasing Qiu Yi Han. Finally, Zheng Yang announced a special award, which was given to the hard-working people of Shitou Village. The village representative came up and gave a speech, deeply moving everyone with their story of building something out of nothing.
After rounds of competition, Qi Lu successfully used the game segment to win the opportunity to speak up for Chinese wines. He stated that his wine region was very young, but it would become the highest quality region, and gave a detailed introduction, providing wines for the guests to taste, earning unanimous praise for Chinese wines from the attendees.
On the day of their return, Qi Lu saw Ou Yang Yi Xing and others at the airport, and the two exchanged a smile as they walked towards each other. Qin He Ming, who had toiled for half a life, made up for his neglect of his daughter over the years, accompanying her to retrace the Silk Road. Wei Xue Cheng explained to the students the first grapevine in Ningxia, a witness to generations of winemakers who persevered tirelessly to transform their hometown.
From the 1980s, the Chinese wine industry has gone through nearly 40 years of development. Generation after generation of Chinese winemakers, with the strong support of the Party and the government, and in the context of rural revitalization, have forged ahead, never giving up, and have paved a path of innovative development with Chinese characteristics. Chinese winemakers, with their entrepreneurial spirit and steady steps, have broken the myth that wine belongs to the West, written a new chapter in Chinese wine, marched towards the great goal of shocking the world, and set sail for even farther horizons.
