Jiangnan recalled, the most recalled is Hangzhou.
In 2016, the global attention of the Group of Twenty (G20) Leaders Summit was held in Hangzhou. The host, China, held a top-level dinner for the leaders at the Xizi Hotel in Hangzhou, Zhejiang.
In this ingenious "state banquet", the bone china tableware and the ingenious wines and delicacies that blend the "green mountains and green water" of the West Lake amazed the world.
Recently, the State Banquet Ceremony of Fort Changyu Affiliate with the theme of "Prosperity Ingenuity and Great Country Courtesy" was held in Hangzhou Xizi Hotel.
The ceremony invited many inheritors of intangible cultural heritage who participated in the G20 summit and master craftsmen in the field of Chinese cooking and wine to experience poetic China and promote the spirit of ingenuity.
During the dinner, Sun Jian, general manager of Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Co., Ltd., delivered a speech. He said that Changyu, as an enterprise with more than one hundred years of winemaking history, has experienced long-term learning and growth, and is now finally able to see the world in the winemaking field.
As the universal language of the world, wine is now playing an increasingly important role.
Li Jiming, deputy general manager and chief winemaker of Yantai Changyu Pioneer Wine Co., Ltd., said that behind the quality of the Changyu Affiliate Banquet is the ingenuity of the winery from planting to brewing.
In the future, Aifeibao will uphold Chinese ingenuity and continue to brew Chinese flavors, so that more people around the world like Chinese brewing.
In September 2021, the first batch of great spirits of the Chinese Communists' spiritual pedigree was officially released, and the "craftsman spirit" was included.
Carrying forward the spirit of craftsmanship and inheriting a century of craftsmanship is the need for social progress and the foundation for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
At the event site, Changyu, together with Ji Xigui, Zhu Bingren, Zhu Qijin, and many other entrepreneurs and craftsmen who attended the banquet, jointly announced the "Xizi Declaration", guarding and inheriting skills with ingenuity, and contributing to the realization of the Chinese dream.
In order to show the world the beauty of Chinese ceramics, Ji Xigui, the chief designer of the porcelain screen for the state banquet of the G20 Summit, still did it himself at the age of 75.
There are 72 different processes in porcelain making. Generally speaking, each process is completed by different masters. However, Ji Xigui requires herself to "grab it with one hand". She firmly believes that only long-term practice and continuous honing of her skills are required. Practice makes perfect.
As the chef of the G20 dinner, Zhu Qijin's understanding of ingenuity is to do better.
In order to take care of the eating habits of foreign guests and take into account the traditional Chinese flavors, Zhu Qijin and his team began to prepare dishes as early as one year before the summit.
After trial and error, repeated adjustments have resulted in Chinese delicacies that have won unanimous praise from leaders of all countries.
At the dinner, Chateau Changyu Affiliate also teamed up with Chinese masters of arts and crafts to launch a joint version of the works for the first auction.
All the proceeds from the auction will be donated to the Ingenuity Fund of Zhejiang Love Charity Foundation for more charitable causes.
In the past five years, the international situation has been changing. In the past five years, China’s giant wheel has cut through the waves, an open and self-confident China is not afraid of the storms, and has loudly put forward China's propositions and China's plans for building a better world in the future.
China's wine industry has grown from scratch, from being to being strong, Changyu people always firmly believe in "doing things down-to-earth and accomplishing things naturally", and hope to join hands with all parties to promote the spirit of craftsmanship and make Chinese brands go global.
