In October, the vineyards have already completed the winter pruning work. Base management staff are working on the winter of the vineyards. At the grape base of Wangzhong Liquor Industry Park, we met the general manager Chen Lizhong. When we were amazed at this unexpected encounter, she explained with a smile: “Every year at the critical stage of grape management, I have come to the scene. Come."

The general manager Chen Lizhong in front of me had short hair and was wearing a sportswear, neat, and approachable. Although I had heard before the meeting that Chen Lizhong's manager liked wine, the next exchange with her still made me respectfully esteemed this persistent and wise manager.

Due to "Hong Yanrong"

Chen Lizhong was originally engaged in the taxi industry. She said that she has always liked wine very much. However, she decided to enter this line as a red wine. It was a gathering of friends a few years ago. Chen Lizhong accidentally drank a Chateau Haut Brionon in 1998. The taste and aroma of that wine left her a deep impression, so that she recalled that now. She was a bit agitated: "I was thinking at the time that if I could produce such a good wine, my life would be complete."

Since then, Chen Lizhong began to pay attention to wine and eventually entered the line. In March 2010, Xinjiang Wangzhong Liquor Co., Ltd. was established and Chen Lizhong served as general manager. As the first wine company in the Western Gobi Desert, Chen Lizhong's positioning to Wangzhong is “to be a fine winery and to be the best winery in the region”. According to the order of development of "grape cultivation - winery construction - winemaking", the winery has planted 1,500 acres of grapes in 2010 and 2011 respectively. In order to ensure the correctness of the overall development direction and the accuracy of specific work, Wangzhong Liquor held two expert demonstrations in 2010 to build the "Jinmai" winery. This year, Wangzhong Wine introduced advanced brewing equipment from France and Italy and conducted trial wine making. The main building of the winery was also completed. For the style of the winery, Chen Lizhong said: We respect nature and carefully brewing wines that reflect local terroir characteristics.

After many years of exploration in the wine industry, Chen Lizhong is quite impressed. She increasingly feels that making wine is not an easy task: Even a small mistake can lead to big losses. If the soil is not in place, the vineyards that have been cultivated for years will be completely destroyed due to frost damage. However, this did not weaken Chen Lizhong’s attachment to the wine. She said: “Three years ago, here was a deserted Gobi Desert. Now when I stand in the vineyard and see the grapes grow up, my heart is full. Looked forward to."

"Two-sided" managers in the exchange, I found that Chen Lizhong is a wise and very warmhearted manager who treats work. She can be said to demand "tremendousness" and treat employees. She is full of emotions.

Chen Lizhong often said that if the slogans are to be implemented, ideas can be realized. To be a boutique winery, we must strive for excellence in every job. In the spring of 2011, crickets suffered severe winters that had not been encountered for many years. More than half of the local grapes were chilled to varying degrees, and the grapes that were expected were the least damaged. At the time, many people said they were "lucky," but only Chen Lizhong and her team knew how this "lucky" came from: when the soil was buried in the winter of 2010, the grapes that were in sight for the first time were buried only 20 times. Centimeters. At that time, the base management staff believed that based on past experience, 20 cm was almost enough, and other local companies did the same. However, after Chen Lizhong knew, it was forced to rework the employees and re-buried them to 35 cm. Chen Lizhong said: “I also know that the workers in the earth-burial operations are very hard. But I am more aware that the standard for the local landfill is 35 centimeters. I cannot accept such a working attitude of 'almost' and “sixty-nine” and strictly enforce the standards. Must not be vague.” It is also true that the Wangzhong’s vineyard survived the frost damage and the company avoided the economic loss of 10 million yuan.

Although there is a serious increase in work, Chen Lizhong is also a good boss who is sympathetic to the subordinates. In order to make the work of employees more comfortable, Chen Lizhong has spent a lot of time thinking: For every job in the vineyard, Chen Lizhong requires managers to try first, find out better methods, and then train employees to improve labor efficiency. Reduce the intensity of labor; when she receives the grapes, she lets her employees engage in harvesting competitions and adds some fun to the work.... She tells the staff humorously that when she harvests the grapes, she needs to be clean and not fall, otherwise the grapes that are dropped will not Happy! She also asked the staff to throw the grapes away and throw them in the basket. The basket of Sheng grape cannot be pulled on the ground, because one pull will enter the soil, and the grapes will not be clean. Chen Lizhong also often gives employees some tool bags, lunch boxes, water bottles, small flashlights, etc., so that employees can work more conveniently. More happier, in Chen Lizhong’s own words, is: “Vineering is a happy thing. If you work in a depressed mood, the grapes you plant will not be sweet!”

At the Wangzhong Grape Base, we also saw a row of flats in a 500-mu vineyard. Chen Lizhong said that this is a “couple room” for the company’s workers. Every small piece of vineyards in Wangzhong Wines has special people responsible for management, and most of the managers are couples. In order to stabilize the workforce and provide better conditions for employees, last year they invested in 40 married couples. Living area, properly decorated, there are living room, bedroom, as well as an independent kitchen, bathroom, there are "self-reserved areas" grow vegetables and raise sheep and so on. In this way, it is not only convenient for the employees to stabilise their lives, but also ensures the fine management of the vineyards.

After three years of construction, Wangzhong Wine has shown a good momentum of development and has also attracted more and more attention in the industry. Chen Lizhong said that I now think that winemaking is not only a personal matter, but also a personal hobby. It is more of a responsibility and responsibility for investors and society. It is also because of this sense of responsibility that she has lasting momentum and more dedication.

Enjoying the pleasure of planting grapes Since planting the first grape seedlings, this piece of vineyard on the Gobi Desert in the west of Sichuan has become the biggest concern of Chen Lizhong. She said that she also particularly likes to walk around the grape fields. This not only improves her physical fitness, but also makes her mind more open in the remote environment of Xinjiang.

As a new wine producing area in China, Xinjiang wolfberry has natural conditions suitable for the growth of grapes and also carries many people's expectations. Chen Lizhong said that now he only wants to grow grapes and produce wines that can represent the style of production. She firmly believes that in Xinjiang, on this hot land of grapes, as long as the heart to do, we will be able to produce a good wine, make their own loud brand.

Listening to the story of Chen Lizhong and her story about wine and wine, we were all touched by her love and attachment to wine. I found that "Like" is really a great force. It allows one to tirelessly pay for what they love, until every detail is perfected. There are ancient poems saying that "Yangchun Budeze, all things shine brightly." I think that if the plants are human, then under such a fine management, the grapes in the Wangzhong base will also feel the owner's intentions!
