999 yuan: 1 night in Maotai boutique room+breakfast+customized dinner in private kitchen+1 bottle of Maotai red wine+1 bottle of Feitian Maotai. Only available for check-in on October 1st, with a total of 10 reserved inventory.

The reservation is valid until December 31st and needs to be made 3 days in advance. For some dates, an additional price of 300-500 yuan/set is required. Please refer to the details page for details.
999 yuan is definitely worth it, after all, a bottle of Maotai at the original price costs 1499 yuan. The total price of a room with 2999 yuan per night, including breakfast, is around 1300 yuan, and for National Day, it is even up to 2500 yuan, including a main meal. The price tag for this meal is 500 yuan, but the actual value is estimated to be 1000 yuan. At Maotai Resort, you can only open Maotai with a food and beverage consumption of 1000 yuan. Including the original price of 1499 yuan for Feitian Maotai, the market price is close to 3000 yuan.
According to the information released by Feizhu, this special offer includes hotel catering and on-site tasting of Feitian Maotai. The reporter found through investigation that the hotel's large bed room type usually does not include Feitian Maotai, and the price is around 600 yuan. It is worth noting that the Feizhu poster states in the activity rules that there are only 10 exclusive spots for the 999 yuan check-in package, and there is no quota limit for the 2999 yuan deluxe/king room 2-night package.
On the evening of the 17th, before the pre-sale began, the reporter saw on the sales page of the official flagship store of Feizhu Vacation on the Feizhu Travel APP that the product was displayed as "delisted". The customer service representative of the store stated that the situation is due to the sales entrance being maintained.
The sales link was launched normally at 8 pm, and it started selling almost instantly. The available appointment dates all displayed as "unavailable" or "fully booked". A few minutes later, the product link page displayed "delisted" again.
The customer service representative of the store stated that if they still want to make an appointment for the package, they need to wait a little longer. Whether there will be additional listings in the future is still under investigation.
Moutai personnel: Improper publicity has been requested for rectification
It is worth noting that prior to the start of today's sales, there were reports from insiders in Maotai that they had noticed the situation regarding the "sauce flavored king bed room" at the Maotai Hotel in Sanya, which was announced by Alibaba's Feizhu to be available for sale for 999 yuan/night at 8 pm tonight: "This promotion is not correct, and Maotai is already asking them to rectify it."
The customer service representative from Feizhu said, "It won't affect the rush purchase of the package, but the quota is limited. There are only 10 quotas for the 999 yuan package, and there is a lot of inventory for the 2999 yuan package."
The reporter called the Maotai Boutique Hotel of Haitang Bay Maotai Resort in Sanya to participate in this cooperation. Relevant personnel stated that the right to explain the event lies with Feizhu, and the hotel is only cooperating with Feizhu. Whether and how to use the package after the purchase can be consulted with Feizhu's online customer service.
