Don't Be My Old Man [Entertainment]

Yang Li's face was stiff.

When he was in college, in order to understand the difference between the new method of winemaking and the ancient method of winemaking, he often read the papers and books written by those highly respected scholars.

Except for his teachers in C University, the original authors of the books that Yang Li had chased back then, and the big names in the industry, almost all of them were sitting here last time.

Yang Li doesn't know whether it's better for him to lament the face of CCTV or lament his bad luck.

If you come here, you will be at ease. Do you still want to be cowardly now that you have reached this point?

"Don't be timid, the more guilty you are, the more you pretend to be fearless."

Zheng Wushu's previous advice sounded in Yang Li's mind, and he walked in with his head held high.

"Hello teachers, I'm Yang Li."

After Yang Li walked in, he bowed deeply to the people present, "I'm going to trouble everyone this time."

Considering that most of the people who came to test him this time were not from the entertainment industry, Yang Li didn't put on much makeup, but just put on a mask, tidied up his eyebrows and hair, tried his best to show off his makeup, and looked gentle and harmless.

The so-called reaching out and not hitting smiling people, although Yang Li didn't feel very good to many people present, but Yang Li who came in seemed humble and polite, which made people feel a little disgusted in their hearts.

"Yang Li graduated from the brewing engineering of C University, and his professional grades are the first every year. His father is a winemaker, and it is a craft passed down from generation to generation." Zhou Long helped introduce, "In the wine making industry, Yang Li can be regarded as a practitioner. 20 years."

While Zhou Long was introducing, someone from the CCTV program group distributed Yang Li's pre-printed materials, published papers, academic achievements, and family situation to everyone.

The photographer also pointed the lens at these materials, indicating the authenticity of these materials.

"I saw that Zhu Yizhong's "Beishan Wine Classic" was quoted in your paper." An expert pulled out a copy of the material and asked, "It mentions that wine is in the world, respecting the world, and serving ghosts and gods. What are the next few words?"

"Ceremony to heaven and earth, service to ghosts and gods, drink from the village, song of deer, worship of guests and hosts, ranks from left to right. From the gentry to the gentry, the poet, the poet, the fisherman and the woodcutter, none of them can lack this..." Yang Li He recited the following paragraph neatly.

Seeing that Yang Li was not stuck at all, the expert who asked the question turned pale, "It seems that you are still prepared."

"I'm too embarrassed to come here without any preparation." Yang Li replied with a smile, "I made everyone laugh."

Of course, Yang Li can be more humble, but this time he came to be tested for the purpose of making things difficult for him, and it would be better to be more aggressive.

So even if Yang Li felt guilty, he was still very confident.

After that, many experts asked a lot of questions about wine making. Fortunately, Yang Li has accumulated many years of experience, even if he can't answer fluently, he can still have something to say.

After these few rounds, the complexions of the experts have improved a lot.

If Yang Li wasn't going to be on CCTV's program, but their own student, they would have started to praise Yang Li without hesitation.

Unfortunately not, so the experts just left the stage to people and didn't say anything more.

Lin Mozhi showed a little complacency quietly.

Even if these old friends appreciate Yang Li, it is useless. Yang Li's graduation thesis was all guided by him, and even if he really wants to recruit apprentices, it should be him, and it is not up to others to grab them.

The experts still ask a lot about theoretical knowledge. Although it can show that Yang Li's professional knowledge has not regressed and his knowledge is fairly wide, it is impossible to convince others just like this.

"In the wine making industry, it is not enough to only have rich theoretical knowledge." A representative of one of the wine industry groups said with a smile, "It's a pity that wine making is not like cooking, where you can taste the taste on the spot, but requires a lot of time and accumulation. tasty."

Yang Li's heart tightened, knowing that the real highlight was coming.

The experts and teachers will not make things difficult for Yang Li, such as asking some questions that they are not sure about, etc., more or less because of Lin Mozhi's face.After all, Yang Li's failure to appear on the show did not have many conflicts of interest between them, so there was no need to make things difficult for Yang Li.

But these wine industry groups and winemakers are different.

Yang Li's appearance was undoubtedly to snatch meat from someone's mouth, and he snatched it quickly and ruthlessly, so it's a different matter.

"There are a lot of winemaking processes, and now we don't have the conditions and time to test him, so we will test it in another way." The representative said while moving his eyes to Master Zhang and Master Shen who followed, "As a winemaker, you need excellent taste and insight. Different wines have different combinations, and sometimes they can produce wonderful reactions. Therefore, Master Zhang and Master Shen beside me brought three kinds of wine respectively, and invited Yang Mr. Li to taste."

Hearing this, Yang Li already knew what the other party was going to test him on.

Identify wine.

This is indeed one of the most important skills a winemaker needs.

Just like a gourmet needs a tongue to distinguish various ingredients and flavors, a winemaker also needs an excellent sense of taste and insight, and it is best to be able to distinguish the general wine among different concoctions.

Wine can be ever-changing.

Even if it is the same raw material, a little more or less of a certain item may have a completely different taste.

There are professional bartenders in this world, and there are cocktails with various tastes. These different classifications make the wine culture last forever.

"Among the wines we brought, some are mixed with different liquors, and some have only one taste, but they are relatively unpopular. We know you are young, so we will not ask you to answer all of them correctly. In fact, this is not the case. Possibly. We just want to see how much you know about wines and whether you have the most important quality as a winemaker – a love of wine.”

The speaker was mature and prudent, and the years had left deep grooves on his face, making him look much older than his actual age.Only one pair of hands is white and smooth, showing a bit of the unique pride of an artist.

"No winemaker dares to say that he knows all the wines in the world." Master Shen also chimed in, "But I want to know how much you know."

Zhou Long listened from the side, feeling a little unreasonable, "Isn't this a bit too difficult? This kind of test is used to test the top bartenders and is still passable, but Yang Li is a winemaker, not a bartender..."

The mixing of wine can evolve countless changes, how old is Yang Li?This kind of topic is also taken out to test people, which is too much.

Zhou Long is not the only one who thinks this way, and the faces of the experts beside him are also not good-looking.

Because they just can't.

Since they are obsessed with theoretical research, it is naturally impossible to distinguish different mixed wines.Similarly, many winemakers may only be good at a few of these wines, and no one can guarantee that they can know all wines and can distinguish all wines.

"I have learned these things since I was a child." Master Shen said in a deep voice, "When I was young, the master blindfolded me and asked me to taste the taste of these wines with my tongue. Of course, I won't do that. I ask you, you can see, smell, and taste. Just tell the general type of mixed wine, can you do it?"

"Old Shen can do it." Master Zhang said slowly from the side, "So I am very convinced of his ability."

Yang Li is a brewer himself, so he knows how difficult it is.

The willow stuffed by my father is actually a blend of different flavors, and it has been balanced on the one hand through various methods.

Of course, these two masters didn't use such harsh methods, they just mixed wine.

It's just that there are more types of these wines, and they are more complicated.

"Okay." Yang Li agreed.

"I forgot to tell you." Seeing Yang Li agreeing, Master Zhang said with a smile, "Most of these wines are very strong, and they are mixed with a higher concentration and strong energy. If you are not very good at drinking, you can ask to stop and rest halfway."

"How can a winemaker know how to drink?" Yang Li smiled really relaxedly now, "I have already learned to drink since I learned to drink water. I think, in terms of whether or not to get drunk, you should no problem."

"I hope your ability is as great as your tone."

The two masters Zhang and Shen opened the box they brought.

There are three jars of wine sealed inside.

Exactly the same packaging, exactly the same size.

In addition, there are six wine glasses.

"In order to reduce the difficulty, we will have different wine glasses for each type of wine." Master Shen placed the wine glasses on the table lined up, "As long as you get half of the answers correct."

"It's troublesome." Yang Li still didn't show any panic.

As far as guts are concerned, Yang Li did pretty well.

The eyes of the people in the program group lit up, and they quickly pointed the camera at the wine.

It's really fun.

As expected of a craftsman, this method of testing people is also very unusual.

"First of all, the first kind of wine I brought." Master Zhang opened a wine jar, and the aroma of the wine filled the air instantly, "I hope everyone who smells it will keep quiet."

It was very quiet on the field.

Master Zhang deserves to be the winemaker that the people of the wine industry group have worked so hard to bring back. This skill is really good.

The jar of wine from Kaifeng has a pleasant aroma, with a hint of grape flavor, but after a while, the grape flavor seems to fade away.

Wine is one of the easiest types of wine to distinguish, so the first wine the master brought out was actually a little water for Yang Li.

The faces of the experts on the field also looked better.

At least it wasn't the most difficult one, Yang Li could still answer this question correctly.

Zhou Long was a little greedy, and felt that he really came to the right place this time.

These winemakers usually say that "there are few collections" and "no good wine", but when they are tested, they don't say that there are no collections.

The first wine was poured into the wine glass.

It is a bit orange-red, a bit like the color of orange juice mixed with water, and it looks a bit like tea, with a little white at the bottom.

It can be seen that the alcohol content of the two mixtures is already somewhat different, so the stratification will be obvious.

"Mr. Yang, please." Master Zhang pushed the poured wine glass in front of Yang Li, staring at Yang Li closely, probably wanting to see something from his face.

Yang Li smiled, and took the glass of wine with both hands, "I didn't expect that I could taste good wine this time, it's really a blessing."

He sniffed the wine lightly, and he already had some confidence in his heart.

All in one drink.
