Spiritualist In Korea

Chapter 102: Strong Franco

  The next day, the Kyoto Sake Exchange Conference officially started.

   Unlike previous editions, this year marks the 50th anniversary and was specially held in public. After the vigorous promotion of the Endo family, elites from all walks of life were invited to gather in the banquet hall of the hotel controlled by the Endo family.

  Li Mo and Kim Taeyeon chatted until midnight last night. With the encouragement of his girlfriend, he came to the scene with Li Zhengyu in high spirits led by Kawahara Castle.

  In the bustling banquet hall, at least more than a hundred spectators gathered. Everyone is well-dressed, looks like a social elite, and there are many reporters with long guns and short cannons.

   Go directly to the player lounge.

  Du Ziyuan, Franco and Endo Shigesai were already inside. The three of them each occupied a corner, and the atmosphere was quiet.

  Li Mo shrugged, but did not go up to greet these guys enthusiastically.

   took a seat and sat down, thinking about today's process.

The    exchange meeting is divided into three stages.

   In the first stage, the knowledge and appreciation of the contestants must be tested.

   The second stage tests the players' winemaking skills and operational abilities.

   In the third stage, it is natural to compare the taste of the wine.

   It is false to say that there is no pressure, Li Mo is only confident in the third stage. However, he remains confident of winning.

  Because there is a regulation in the exchange meeting, even if the points are behind in the first two stages, as long as the third stage can be unanimously approved by ten neutral judges, you can win directly.

   This is where Li Mo's strength lies.

  ・・・

   Outside the venue, ten judges also entered the venue one after another.

  Gordon Henrietta, the old man who indirectly helped "Pink Dream" become famous, is also one of the judges, and he is the most authoritative among them.

  The other nine judges are from China, Japan, France, Italy, Germany, etc., and each of them is a prestigious master in their own country.

   "Li, there are two little guys in your country competing this year. It seems that they are determined to win!"

   Gordon said with a smile to a white-haired old man next to him. The old man is Li Wenchang from China.

  Li Wenchang shook his head, "Franco is aggressive, and the one from the Endo family, it's difficult!"

   Then Li Wenchang seemed to think of something, "That little guy named Li Mo, I heard that the Endo family strongly invited him, is there something tricky in it?"

  Because it was very unusual, even Endo Shigesai participated, plus Li Mo who suddenly appeared, so many unclear factors, this is the first time since so many sessions.

   "Perhaps." Gordon-Henrietta didn't jump to conclusions. He remained impartial and did not mean the same for the other judges.

  The Endo family head, Hiroshi Endo, is respectfully receiving the judges and guests. The exchange meeting is developing now, and has contributed a lot of talents and resources to the Endo family. It is an activity that the family attaches great importance to every year.

   In addition, this year is a bit special, he does not allow any mistakes.

  Irene Lauder sat calmly in the audience, and there were also many foreigners beside her, among them Andre Collins and Jimmy Wood.

   "Li Mo is not good enough in the first stage, he may not be able to guess the year of a wine."

  Jimmy Wood is pessimistic.

   But this is true, let Li Mo taste wine? What is the difference between playing the piano on a cow.

   "He doesn't know himself? I need you, the old guy, to remind him." Andre Collins said to Jimmy Wood, "Instead of worrying about Li Mo, it's better to guard against the father and son, whether they have made small moves."

  Jimmy Wood, of course, knew who he was talking about, that is, Brooke and his son, who were sitting not far from them.

   "I'm staring at them!"

   Before waiting for Jimmy Wood to say anything, the noise stopped and the exchange meeting began!

  Because it was an unofficial event, the Endo family did not invite any officials to the scene, and the four players appeared directly.

   "Now there are four rising stars. The first one is Franco from France. At the age of 30, he has become the winemaker of the world's top winery, Chateau Margaux."

  Franco, like a proud Gallic rooster, came into the field with his head held high. Hand-made carefully tailored dress with handsome face. Anyone who doesn't know his character must be deceived by his appearance.

  Li Mo came in second.

   "The second place is from Huaxia. This year's 'Pink Dream', which aroused heated discussions among wine lovers, came from this 23-year-old genius."

   The host's introduction made Li Mo blush a little and walked to his seat awkwardly.

   Compared with the high-profile and imposing Franco, Li Mo's aura was weakened!

   Du Ziyuan and Endo Shigesai, who appeared next, both received warm welcome from the audience.

The players sat down, and Gordon Henrietta took the host's microphone and said calmly: "We welcome the annual exchange meeting again. I believe you have all been looking forward to it for a long time. I will stop talking nonsense, the first stage of the competition. start."

   "Every contestant has ten glasses of wine of different years, different types and brands in front of them. Only by guessing all the information of a wine can you get ten points. Four contestants, do you understand?"

   Got a response, Gordon Henrietta nodded with satisfaction, returned the microphone to the host, and sat back in his seat.

  Franco chuckled, picked up one of the glasses, identified the color, smelled it, and took a sip.

   didn't even need to take a second bite, he confidently wrote it on the white paper.

  Du Ziyuan looked dignified and treated every glass of wine very cautiously, only after tasting it many times before writing.

   Endo Shigesai is between the two, and he does his tasting work confidently and methodically.

   And what about Li Mo?

   Each glass of wine was savoured, and just when the audience thought he was about to write, he picked up another glass of wine and continued to taste it.

   Soon, ten glasses of wine were tasted by him, but he had no intention of writing.

   looked at the other three curiously, and then actually took out his mobile phone from his pocket and started playing with no one else.

  The judges were stunned!

  The audience **** it!

   What's the situation?

   "Haha, that's ok, this kid." Jimmy Wood tried his best not to laugh out loud.

  Andre Collins looked at Li Mo and smiled bitterly: "I knew it might be like this."

   Irene Lauder pouted, also amused by Li Mo's behavior.

  Warren Brook put on a disdainful smile on his face and asked Sean Brook in a low voice, "He is Li Mo? The formula is not stolen, right?"

  Sean Brook nodded, "Yes, he is."

   "Looks like it's easy to win, it's just ignorant. Luckyboy who got lucky!"

  Compared to his father's optimism, Sean Brook frowned and looked at Li Mo's figure. Why did he always think he was confident?

   Franco, who finished with incredible speed, put his answer in the hands of the judges. At the same time, detailed information about Franco's tasting of ten wines appeared on the big screen.

   Compared with the answer, it was 100% accurate, and the audience was agitated, making Flack even more complacent.

   A mocking look was cast towards Li Mo. Seeing that he still had no idea of ​​writing, Franco retracted his gaze disdainfully.

   turned out to be just a beam jumping clown, not worthy of his attention at all.

   There are only two other opponents!

  Under Franco's watch, Du Ziyuan and Endo Shigesai finished successively, and they answered eight and nine respectively.

   At this moment, all eyes were on Li Mo, watching his performance.
