Liu Gang shouted, and many members of the Mingyang Jade Association applauded vigorously. No one expected that Li Yang would really choose the champion. Even Zhang Wei and Sima Lin were stunned at this time. This Li Yang's luck is really
Very evil.
At this time, they completely attributed their functions to Li Yang's invincible luck. Betting on stones and betting on gains was luck, and choosing things to pick the champion was also luck.
Zhang Wei and Mr. Gu glanced at each other. They both noticed the surprise in each other's eyes. Li Yang's good luck was still there. This was definitely great news for them. With Li Yang's luck still there, they Ming Yang
It's hard not to show your face this time.
As for Li Yang's eyesight, no one thought about it at all. Eyesight plays some role in selecting works during the competition, but it is very limited. Luck is the biggest factor in this kind of result.
Li Yang took a photo with everyone with a certificate and the championship work, and then walked off the podium. Before he could reach Zhang Wei and the others, someone started to want to buy the jade carving in his hand. Three hundred bidders
Someone has already bid 3,000 yuan for the jade carving.
All these bidders were rejected by Li Yang. He did not lack this little money. The carving of this jade carving was indeed good and it was very memorable. Li Yang would keep it as one of his collections.
"Okay, Li Yang, you want to treat me today!"
As soon as Li Yang came back, Sima Lin punched Li Yang hard. Sima Lin was really happy for Li Yang in his heart.
"It's okay to treat me, Brother Sima, but you can't be gentle, I'm almost injured internally by you!"
Li Yang gave a wry smile, and everyone laughed. Different from the morning, where everyone was joking about Li Yang, now they are happy for Li Yang. Mingyang took the lead in this event, and their faces also showed signs of laughter.
Light.
The Nanyang Forum once again became a sensation. Before the post reporting on Li Yang in the morning had subsided, Li Yang won the championship title in the afternoon. The topic about Li Yang became lively again. No one on the Internet knew Li Yang’s name. Some people
The 'Digging Emperor' began to ask around, and Li Yang's identity was completely exposed before they had dinner. Then Li Yang's record of stone gambling was also discovered. Most netizens in Nanyang knew about some stone gambling, and they were interested in it.
Li Yang was even more curious.
In the evening, Li Yang treated everyone to a good meal. This meal cost Li Yang three thousand oceans. Think about it that before, these three thousand oceans were the highest salary for his hard work for a month. Now a meal
He ate it without feeling too distressed. Li Yang felt that he had indeed fallen.
Early the next morning, Zhang Wei gathered all the people from Mingyang. Today's activity was a jade competition. In fact, to put it bluntly, it was mainly his task. The presidents of various prefectures and cities would search for some valuable and outstanding candidates.
To compare good jade works, the one with the best results will receive a collective award, and the Provincial Jade Association will also give good rewards. These rewards are blank appraisal certificates, which are most attractive to the presidents.
Of course, the rewards given by the Provincial Jade Association will never be stated openly. There are not many requirements for the jade comparison activity, but the most important thing is that the jade stones used for comparison must be owned by members of the local Jade Association. If the fraud is found, not only
Canceling results will also result in penalties from the Provincial Jade Association.
To put it into perspective, the only activity in this Nanyang market gathering is the activity of the members of the Jade Association. The carving competition is actually a Nanyang program, and the subsequent stone gambling is a public participation. Although the jade competition has a utilitarian factor
It is inside, but after all, it is an internal event of the Jade Association, and all the members of the Jade Association are still looking forward to this event.
In the large conference hall of Nanyang Hotel, more than 300 people from the Henan Jade Association have gathered inside. Including some people who were joining in the fun, there were almost 400 people, making the conference room full.
Zhang Wei wore a crisp suit with confidence. He was very confident in this competition and even had big ideas for the championship.
When Li Yang saw Zheng Kaida handing an exquisite small iron box to Zhang Wei, he immediately understood why he was so confident. Zhang Wei's piece of hibiscus jadeite had been processed into a set of exquisite jewelry by him. The entire set of jadeite jewelry was always
The value is already over 5 million, plus it is a rare suit. No wonder Zhang Wei behaves so confidently.
Sima Lin suddenly lay next to Li Yang's ear and whispered: "The best jade that has been compared in the past is only four to five million. This time with Lao Zheng's support, Zhang Wei will definitely win the prize. Good luck.
If so, it’s possible to win the championship!”
Li Yang nodded. The value of four or five million items is already very high. Although there are many boss-level figures in the Jade Association, there are not many items worth millions. Moreover, each item can only be participated in
A comparison shows that over the past few years, there have been fewer and fewer high-value items.
This time the host is a professional host from Nanyang. The layout of the rostrum in the conference room is very similar to the TV show Treasure Appraisal. The experts and judges sit on one side, and the host stands on the other side. After a while, the presidents from various places will take turns to take them.
The items participating in the comparison are put on stage for the judges to comment. After all the items have been reviewed, the experts will judge the first, second, and third places.
Each place must send at least one jade work, and at most three. In some cities, if you are sure of one item, you will not prepare others. Zhang Wei, for example, only prepared the set of jade jewelry by Zheng Kaida, and other items.
There is nothing comparable to this.
As long as it is made of jade, you can participate in it. Over the years, some exquisite products have appeared in jade competitions. Suet-fat jade and glass jade have all appeared. As soon as the host announced the start of the jade competition, the people below became silent.
Everyone was staring at the rostrum or the big screen behind the rostrum. In order to facilitate the people behind to see more clearly, the organizer specially prepared a large screen this time.
The first person to take the stage was the president of the Nanyang Jade Association, a middle-aged man in his fifties. This middle-aged man is very famous in the national jade association. In addition to being the president of the Nanyang Jade Association, he is also the provincial jade expert.
Vice President of the Association and Executive Director of the Jade Association.
What the president brought up was a large jade ornament. The ornament was carved into a Chinese cabbage. The white part was crystal clear, the green part was emerald, and the color distribution of the green and white part was very reasonable.
The base is made of gray jade, with the four words "wealth follows one's will" engraved on it.
No matter how you look at it, this piece of jade cabbage is a rare masterpiece, especially the bright crystal-like luster on the cabbage leaves. If you don't know better, you might think it is a real cabbage that has just been washed.
As soon as the jade cabbage came out, the confidence on Zhang Wei's face lost a little bit. Nanyang is the capital of jade, and there is no shortage of good works here. It's just that the host came up with such a shocking thing and simply refused to give it to them.
These people from other places have a way of survival.
"This piece of jadeite and cabbage jade is our Nanyang's special grade Dushan jade. The overall weight is 13.5 kilograms. It is a behind-the-scenes work of our famous Nanyang sculptor Master Zhao Rongguang. The market estimate is six million yuan. Please give your comments to the experts."
!”
After the president of the Nanyang branch finished speaking, he sat there quietly. It could be seen that he was quite confident in this jade cabbage.
"Zhao Rongguang's work, I'm afraid Nanyang will win the championship again this time!"
Sima Lin shook his head slightly. Zhao Rongguang is one of the top sculptors in the country. Although he is not the most famous of the four, no one else can compare with him after those four people sealed their knives. This work is another
It is his masterpiece, and it is very representative. Even if Zhang Wei's set of jade jewelry is worth more than this piece of cabbage, it will eventually lose to it. After all, the jade comparison is not only about the value, but also its inherent meaning.
.
It was not just Zhang Wei who looked worried. Many other confident presidents from various places also showed the same expression as Zhang Wei. The host Nanyang gave them a super earthquake when they came up. There was nothing better than him this time.
Forget about being the champion.
Moreover, this is only the first work Nanyang has presented for competition. Each place can present up to three jade works. No one knows whether Nanyang has a better one hidden behind it.
It's not like this has never happened before. First, take out a better work for evaluation. If it feels unsafe after a round, immediately throw out the hidden better work. This is double insurance. If the first one has
If you grasp the latter, you can continue to hide it and bring it out for evaluation next year.
The experts all nodded after carefully looking at the jade cabbage. The president of the Nanyang Jade Association carefully moved the jade cabbage back. The jade cabbage will be reappeared during the final evaluation.
The second person to take the stage was the Luohe Jade Association. The president of the Luohe Jade Association obviously didn't look very good-looking. What they participated in the evaluation was a mutton-fat jade sculpture. It was not as big as a cabbage, but its value was not low. The self-quoted price was four
One and a half million, if the cabbage hadn't appeared first, this mutton-fat jade sculpture would definitely be a very shocking thing.
The third and fourth ones were almost the same. Only after twelve people had passed did Zhang Wei come on stage with jade jewelry. Zhang Wei no longer wanted to win the championship. It would be good to get another reward. Something is better than nothing.
The last person to take the stage was Zhengzhou City, the provincial capital. To everyone's surprise, the person representing Zhengzhou City who came up was not their president, but a very young man. Several judges on the podium looked at the information and saw that this young man
His name is Shen Hao. He is only twenty-four years old and has just joined the Jade Association. However, he has a good career and is a reporter for a well-known newspaper.
Seeing Shen Hao suddenly appearing here, Li Yang and Wu Xiaoli were stunned for a moment, especially Li Yang. When Shen Hao spoke on the rostrum, Li Yang clearly felt that he was looking at her, and there seemed to be a smile on his face.
A little provocation.
"The work we brought to Zhengzhou for competition this year is the mutton-fat jade horse. This mutton-fat jade horse was created by Lu Zigang, a famous sculptor from the Ming Dynasty. Both the jade quality and the carving are of the highest quality. We gave him an estimated price of 600
Ten thousand!"
Shen Hao first bowed deeply to the rostrum, and then slowly introduced the works he had brought for the competition. Everyone on the rostrum nodded slowly. This young man was a bit young, but he was very polite. At least everyone was respectful to him.
