Chapter 449 Pressure

This game is only half of the first game. The quarter-finals are not like the previous games. They have a unique competition system. The difficulty of the game has also been greatly increased, and the content is more complicated, so

In terms of time, it will also be relatively longer.

However, the audience naturally prefers to see such games, being able to see more of their favorite teams and favorite players performing to the fullest on the court. This is undoubtedly the greatest reward for the money they have spent. You must know that being able to come to the court

Almost all spectators who watch the game have experienced grabbing tickets, and the price is also a big difficulty, because the lowest price of each ticket is three hundred US dollars, and it will increase with the game.

Now that we have reached the quarter-finals, the price has already exceeded the base price of US$500 per ticket. The highest front-row seats, which are hard to come by and expensive, have already reached the value of US$5,000 per ticket.

Although it is very expensive, there are still many people rushing to get it, just because they want to see the players they support at the nearest distance, which will give them great satisfaction. As the saying goes, those who are willing to fight are willing to suffer, and the organizers will

According to these factors, the ticket price is increased to make a lot of money. Every show is full, so you make a lot of money, and you don't have to worry about not making it back.

The cost of preparing for the competition in the early stage is also very high, but the ticket prices that can be recovered after the official start of the competition are also amazing. This is a huge profit, so there is no need to worry about whether the host country will continue to take over the competition.

If you are rushing to hold it, you can fully prepare in five years.

"Now, let's invite the players in the fourth round to get ready. On the Chinese side is Xiaoqi, a female player, and on the other side is the youngest new player of the American team. So who will win? Let's wait and see.

"Okay." The host said seriously.

"Come on, you can do it, don't be afraid, I will support you behind you, just do your best, there is no need to feel pressure." Qiao Meng did not forget to encourage Xiao Qi before he went up. He hoped that his woman could understand that she was not

When a person is fighting alone, he is the strongest backing, and he is carrying everything.

Originally, Qiao Meng thought that there was no need to press too hard on Xiao Qi. It was best to let her bloom freely on the world stage. As long as he was protecting her from behind, she didn't need to worry about anything. Victory would definitely come back.

She just needs to enjoy it, and this is Qiao Meng's way of doting.

It was a very simple and pure thought, but it was also the best kind of protection. The full amount of love was reflected in his words, which made Xiao Qi feel warm in his heart.

With a slight smile, Xiao Qi looked at Qiao Meng and replied: "Well, I understand, thank you."

The two of them looked at each other affectionately. At this time, they were still a little reluctant to break the gaze. Those who didn't know thought that the two of them were going through some kind of separation. Xiaowen who was standing aside couldn't bear it anymore and hurriedly

He interrupted the affectionate relationship between the two of them with words: "Oh, okay, you two, aren't you just going to have a show? It's not about life and death. There is no need to be so exaggerated."

"Haha, that's right, don't be careless." Qiao Meng also smiled awkwardly, knowing that he had gone too far, and it was indeed inappropriate, but he liked it and just wanted to express his love like this, but

You also have to consider the feelings of the people around you.

If there was no one now, maybe he wouldn't know how many rounds he had fought with Xiao Qi, and he would still just look at each other like this. In his opinion, when the love is deep, you always have to do something, otherwise

I can't hold it back, and my emotions will always leak out.

Finally, the contestants on both sides stood on their own booths and looked at each other. Although Xiaoqi was a female treasure appraiser, she was not inferior to the opponent in terms of momentum. This even attracted a burst of cheers from the audience. The Chinese team

Some fans hope to win the first round of the game in this round, while the other side hope to win back a victory and drag this round to the last round for the final showdown.

Although the player opposite looked younger, he was still relatively calm. He looked at Xiao Qi and said, "Although you are a lady, this is a competition, so I won't be humble later. I'm sorry."

Xiao Qi didn't expect that the young man opposite could be so calm at this time, and his words sounded very cultivated, so she put aside all the suppressive words she had prepared in her heart and responded in a very peaceful way: "Very

Thank you for being able to do this, let us go through this round well, I hope you will not disappoint me."

"Perhaps, you will be disappointed, because the winner must be me, and I must correct the balance of the competition." The man said very scornfully, without any facial expression changes when he spoke, just like a robot.

, but it sounds very emotional, and the tone is very obvious.

Obviously, for this round, he is bound to win and has no way out. As long as he loses, the last player will have no need to play, but he will not allow such a thing to happen.

Because the last one is his senior and his master. If it were not for him, the man would not come to this arena, let alone know the value of his life. It can be said that his life is because of this person.

We have made a gorgeous change, so we must do our best to repay. Winning this game is what we must do now.

Although it seemed that he had no expression, Xiao Qi could still feel that his aura was getting stronger and stronger. She didn't know what his belief was, but this power made her feel that it should not be underestimated, so she cheered up even more.

She didn't want to lose either. If she could win this round, she could help Qiao Meng take some of the pressure off.

So he looked at the opponent and said: "I can feel that you may have your own beliefs and persistence, but I also have it, so I won't let you win this game easily."

"Then, come on, let's see whose belief is stronger between us." The man chuckled. He didn't expect Xiao Qi to say this, but he finally showed his first expression because of this.

Even though he knew that Qiao Meng had the ability to detect treasures, Xiao Qi knew that he could not rely too much on this. This would make Qiao Meng very tired. Even if he did not say he was tired, after every game, he would return to the room.

Seeing him anxiously taking a shower to keep himself awake, always preparing for the next time, and never relaxing easily until the last moment.

At this time, she knew that it was not that he was not tired, but that Qiao Meng hid all his fatigue and did not want others to see him. He just wanted to shoulder all the responsibilities alone, even though no one wanted him to do this.

, but he still did it, and in front of Xiao Qi, his behavior of not hiding anything was also a sign of great trust.

The game officially begins. This time, the opponent is the first to identify the treasure, while Xiao Qi is analyzing the information in his hand. Time is disappearing minute by minute, without any sign of slowing down.

The first treasure, you can see a row of large black characters on the information. It seems that the name is quite long. This is a treasure of the Chinese nation. It is a black-glazed partridge-spotted sunflower-style plate from the Ding kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty. It was produced in the forty years

It was photographed by a collector in Japan and brought to the United States. Then it was gradually moved around and finally collected by the Louvre in France. Its value has also continued to increase. The highest price ever reached 50 million US dollars. This

It has set a world auction record for black-glazed porcelain and has not been broken so far.

There are very few black-glazed Ding kiln plates that have survived in the world. This one is considered to be among the only remaining black-glazed partridge plates in the collection. Its rarity is even comparable to that of the Imperial Ru.

Kiln and official kiln utensils.

The black glaze on this plate is plump and round, and the brown spots decorated with it are densely spaced and short and vertical. It has been known as the "Partridge Spot Glaze" since ancient times.

The appearance of this utensil also conforms to the history of tea ceremony in China. In the early Tang Dynasty, the main tool for drinking tea was a bowl, which was straight-shaped and inclined upward from the bottom of the bowl. By the Song Dynasty, when people drank tea

He began to use vessels like "zhan".

At this time, the utensils with black oil and partridge spots became very popular. They were popular among the people. They were beautiful and practical. They were very stylish and in line with their status when placed at home. Literati and poets liked these utensils the most.

Historically, there were not only plates but also bamboo hat bowls. Both were very famous utensils and became popular in the world during the Song Dynasty.

Time passed quickly, but Xiaoqi somehow managed to understand the first treasure better. The other two were both Western or European and American products. She didn't have enough contact with them, so she couldn't understand them.

No useful information could be extracted from the data.

Because of this, she simply chose the first treasure as the question.

"It seems that you still have to let me clean up the mess." After seeing this choice, Qiao Meng knew that Xiao Qi must have acted like this because he had no other choice. The boy opposite looked relaxed. This round was difficult.

Won.

"How do you say it?" Meng Kai and the others were all very curious as to why they could come to a conclusion so quickly.

"Look, if I'm not wrong, Xiao Qi can't win this round, and it's up to me." Qiao Meng said lightly, and then looked at his opponent in the rest area. The two of them just looked at each other and smiled.

Look confident.

Sure enough, he was right. Although Xiao Qi tried his best to be tricky when asking questions this round, his opponent still answered fluently. All five questions were answered correctly.

"I didn't expect you to be so familiar with our country's treasures." Xiao Qi said while looking at his opponent during the thirty-second break.

"That's natural. It's such a big ancient civilization. If I didn't study it carefully, how could I still be here? But you have done a good job, and I admire it very much."

The man also said very confidently that he really admired Xiaoqi. It was not easy for a female treasure appraiser to reach such a level.
