Don't give up the goal you were originally determined to achieve just because of one failure.
——British dramatist William Shakespeare (
1 )
There is a film based on real events called "Bottle Shock" (Bottle Shock). The film is about the "Paris Trial" in the history of wine, which has a profound influence on the pattern of world wine. the judgment of Paris)" event.
The stubborn old lawyer Barrett resigned and started to pursue his wine dream. He paid a tragic price for it. His wife left, debt-ridden, and the wine he brewed for many years suffered a fate of deterioration. In desperation, he had no choice but to return to the law firm and start his old business in despair. At the moment of failure, his seemingly cynical son, despite the objections of his desperate father, entrusted his home-brewed Chardonnay to a British wine merchant. Unexpectedly, in an unlabeled wine tasting competition, that bottle of Chardonnay defeated the French wine and won the top spot in the wine tasting competition, breaking the new pattern of French wine dominating the world ever since.
In the process of brewing wine, Barrett strives for perfection and prevents the wine from contacting a trace of oxygen. Therefore, the natural brown enzymes in the wine cause the wine to turn into a "shit" brown.
The process of wine deterioration experienced by Barrett is called the "bottle shock" phenomenon in wine industry jargon, which is the "Bottle Shock" referred to by the film's name.
Just like people get motion sickness in a car, wine can also "bottle bottle". After bottling or long-distance transportation, all the complex elements such as phenols, tannins and compounds in the wine will continue to react continuously, and the high temperature or exercise during sealing will accelerate this reaction, resulting in the wine being temporarily sealed and showing aroma A dizzy bottle state with loose, faint taste and unbalanced overall structure.
In fact, the dizzy bottle is only a short-lived state. Put the bottled wine in a more ideal storage environment, and it will restore vitality for a period of time. So it makes sense to say that wine has life, as long as you rest, you can recover like a person.
Because he didn't understand the "halo bottle", Barrett's desperate dream of pursuing for many years almost stopped there, almost desperate.
Some dreams, like bottling wine, need to withstand the brewing of time. The longer the brewing time, the richer and more intriguing the taste. If you want to taste the moving taste, you must first give it a period of rest, so that it can finally release the mellow taste.

For the Chinese, wine is no longer exclusive to the upper class. It was mentioned in "A Life of Cup of Wine" that the biggest feature of wine is that the same batch of wine produced will taste different at different opening times. Because give it an extra minute of brewing time, it will have more flavor. The first minute is the "dream", the next minute is the "halo bottle", maybe when you think that the dream has been broken, it has brewed "success".
I have a little girl who always wanted to become a dinosaur when he was very young. We were all playing marbles, cockfighting, and skipping rope, but he was shrinking his arms, fantasizing that he was a tyrannosaurus, howling, roaring, wandering around the village, chasing cats and dogs, making chickens and dogs jump, everyone is afraid he.
Then one day, his dad said, "The dinosaurs have long been extinct. There are no dinosaurs in this world at all. Study hard and find a job!" He promised his dad. He started to study hard, but what kind of books did he read? "Dinosaur Mystery", "Dinosaur Encyclopedia", "Dinosaur World Uncensored"... He is still doing his "dinosaur dream".
When he applied for his volunteers after the college entrance examination, he originally wanted to apply for paleontology, and formally began to study dinosaurs, but finally chose to major in finance due to strong opposition from his family. He thought like this: "I will study finance first, be a trader for a while, and then be a dinosaur."
But he is a human being after all, and I am afraid he will not be a dinosaur in his life. But what does it matter? He later became a volunteer narrator at the Natural History Museum, and he was very popular among tourists, especially children. He often told the children who visited: “My dream when I was a child was to be a tyrannosaurus. My dad told me that the dinosaurs were extinct. Dinosaurs are together, this is enough."

Dreams are like Pixar’s naughty jumping lights, sometimes illuminating your way forward, and sometimes playing hide-and-seek games with you in the dark. If you stop moving forward and don't look for it, it will abandon you. If you whisper: "Come out! Come out! No matter where you are!" It will suddenly jump in front of you when you don't expect it, and illuminate your end.
When I gave birth to my son, I had pains for three days and nights before giving birth before I opened two fingers. Entered the delivery room at 8 in the morning, and had not given birth by 3:30 in the afternoon.
The pain of childbirth is not unbearable for me, but the key is that the constant pains continue to consume people's will.
Because people have been in frequent labor pains, people can't eat anything at all. I didn't drip in that day, and by 3:30 in the afternoon, I was already collapsed and exhausted. The child's hair could already be seen at that time. Four or five midwives squeezed me, but didn't get the baby out. Hani, who was accompanying the childbirth, cheered me with tears in his eyes, and there was a cry in his voice. But I really can't do it anymore.
At this time, the midwife said: “It’s too long and it’s dangerous. We have to consider the movable forceps. The movable forceps means dystocia.” When
I heard the word “dystocia, ” I didn’t know where the motivation came from. I'll try again!"
Then, I used all the remaining strength in my body to release it all, and finally heard the baby's cry.
