Chapter 2320
A Sip of Lotus White Wine
In fact, He Yuzhu doesn't really understand brand protection.
Many established brands in Beijing are highly regarded by Chinese communities worldwide.
Licensing for money is easy, but how to protect core technologies from being lost and how to maintain the brand's value are challenges.
For He Yuzhu right now, it's still too complicated.
Old Niu had also gotten used to He Yuzhu's wild imagination.
His old friend is always like that.
Every now and then a new idea pops up, always prompting him to think.
But Lao Niu didn't regard He Yuzhu as some kind of god, because He Yuzhu's strengths were just as obvious as his weaknesses.
This is the real He Yuzhu, and it's why Lao Niu was willing to be close to him.
"Come on, let's go to my place for a drink?" Old Niu said. He not only wanted to treat He Yuzhu to drinks, but also wanted to get some more personal information out of He Yuzhu.
Old Niu had no ulterior motives in this matter.
He wanted to learn more, discuss more, and ideally, work together to come up with a solution.
He could also select a few brands and have his subordinates discuss and experiment with them with the foreign trade department.
He Yuzhu shook his head and said, "Not today. An old friend is coming to visit me today."
Why don't you just come to my place!
I prepared several bottles of Lotus White wine.
It's been five years.
Just in time to drink it.
He Yuzhu has always had a hobby of storing wine.
So his family still has quite a lot of aged liquor.
In their circle now, when it comes to cooking skills, hardly anyone admires He Yuzhu anymore.
But when it comes to appreciating wine.
He Yuzhu considers himself second in command, and no one dares to claim the top spot.
Of course, this is relative to laymen like Lao Niu.
He also has some lotus white wine stored away.
However, this wine is a low-alcohol liqueur, so it definitely cannot be stored for a long time.
He Yuzhu usually buys a case every year, stores it for three to five years, and then opens it to drink it when the flavor is at its best.
He had also been paying attention to this factory.
It's currently in a lukewarm phase.
There aren't many people drinking this wine in the domestic market anymore.
However, the export market still maintains a stable portion of consumption year after year.
In Southeast Asia, there's a group of people who really enjoy drinking this alcohol.
But it still can't compare to brands like Maotai or a certain liquor.
It's considered a niche type of alcoholic beverage.
Currently, in terms of positioning, the company is marketing itself using the gimmick of being a royal wine.
This wine holds a very high status in some hotels catering to foreign guests.
However, He Yuzhu's timeline is also somewhat confused.
He clearly remembered that around the turn of the century, this wine seemed to mysteriously disappear.
But when he visited the winery last time, he found that their business was doing quite well.
As time passed since his rebirth, He Yuzhu experienced a sense of memory confusion regarding many things from his previous life.
Just like the telegrams he received most recently, they were all kinds of questions from Guo Shumiao.
It's a very simple reason.
Ho Yu-chu said that the Hong Kong Island market will inevitably collapse in the next two years.
However, the Hong Kong Island property and stock markets are becoming increasingly prosperous.
They've become quite popular.
This means that He Yuzhu's judgment was flawed.
Now that Guo Shumiao has accepted the task from above, is there still a chance for her?
When will we get to that point? That's the question.
He Yuzhu was also confused about this.
He remembered that John Bull and Xiao Ting had a fight, and then that foreign woman, emboldened by her victory, came to visit our house, thinking that our family would back down... In fact, when He Yuzhu's door manufacturing company went to install doors for those places, they had already heard the rumors that John Bull had sent someone to our house for a talk.
John Bull has a great idea, but our family will definitely not agree to their idea.
So that's a really amazing thing.
In Beijing, everyone trusts He Yuzhu's judgment.
In other words, we believe that our negotiations with John Bull will inevitably end in a way that displeases him.
The property and stock markets in Hong Kong Island will inevitably experience a downward trend.
However, many investors on Hong Kong Island have a different perspective.
That's simple; last year, the Hong Kong Island boss went to visit the old city.
Our family left him a message: "Tell investors in Hong Kong to rest assured..."
This very statement propelled the Hong Kong market into a full-blown bull market.
Today, He Yuzhu invited Dr. Xiao. After his meeting, Dr. Xiao always comes over to sit with He Yuzhu for a while.
A case of Lotus White wine was brought out; its golden color made it look quite beautiful.
Mix it with this year's new wine, and let it breathe.
One bottle per person, let's go!
The He family always drinks like this now.
He Yuzhu doesn't urge people to drink; each person drinks one bottle, and can drink as much as they can.
Take away any leftovers.
There was nothing he could do; He Yuzhu was running out of space to store his wine.
Nearly thirty years have passed since He Yuzhu was reborn.
He collects and stores some old wine every year.
The key is that, unlike other antiques, this kind of wine doesn't have the possibility of "evaporation".
The wine that has been stored for more than ten or twenty years, when you clean it up one day, you find that half of it has evaporated.
That's such a heartbreaking thing.
It's better to share it with friends.
Besides, He Yuzhu used to collect wine so that after the reform and opening up, it would become rare and he could sell it on the market for a little money.
But the He family no longer cares about such small sums of money.
Even now, He Yuzhu still habitually stores a batch of wine every year.
But he no longer just spends without buying, storing wine only to drink it in a few years.
In other words, He Yuzhu unknowingly transformed his life from one where he was obsessed with money to one where he enjoyed life.
"Old Xiao, you guys have done something really despicable this time."
"It looks like half the people who call me grandpa or maternal grandpa will be gone in the future," He Yuzhu said jokingly to Dr. Xiao as he poured a drink.
Old Xiao knew He Yuzhu was joking, but he shrugged helplessly and said, "There's nothing we can do, that's just how things are in our family right now."
Some things, even if they are like drinking poison to quench thirst, you have no choice but to do them.
Otherwise, our family will be dragged further and further away from those developed countries because of the population.
Food, education, healthcare, and so on, are all in short supply.
The three people present all belong to a relatively high-ranking group in this society.
Therefore, their views on some things are definitely different from those of ordinary people.
Some policies are indeed necessary in this day and age.
Even though He Yuzhu felt uncomfortable, he had to admit it.
Putting aside everything else, our family's population has increased by 1.5 times since the founding of the People's Republic of China.
The first thirty years were filled with various hardships.
And now, we are working hard to solve the problem of having enough to eat and eating well.
Significant improvements have also been made in other areas.
So you can imagine what the scene will be like in thirty years.
From the perspective of later generations, there are naturally various complaints.
But right now, just like Dr. Xiao said, even if they knew it was poison in front of them, they would still drink it.
Otherwise, the foreign devils certainly wouldn't have watched us grow up as they have with Ass. (End of Chapter)
