The Book of Appreciation

The next day, when a group of people were about to hand over the antiques they were carrying to the organizing committee for inspection, Wu Di remembered a question that he had been ignoring all along.There are 600 participants this time, each with three antiques, a total of [-] pieces, and there are all kinds of antiques from all over the world. In just a few days, how many appraisers will the organizing committee need to arrange to identify them? Identify the true and false one by one?

Wang Yuwan gave him a strange look and said:

"Appraisal? Does the organizing committee need an appraisal? They just need to determine whether the antique is worth 500 million yuan. No, you don't even know this, don't tell me you didn't sign the agreement?"

"I signed it. Didn't it mean that everyone has to sign it? But, there is no mention of antiques?"

"It's strange, which one of you brought the agreement? Show it to this kid. Could it be that we signed it differently?"

Zeng Chengjie took out an agreement from his bag and handed it over.

Wu Di saw that the content on the front was similar to the one he signed, except that there was an extra item on the back. If the contestant used a counterfeit product to participate in the competition and was reported and verified to be true, not only all the results would be invalidated, the qualification would be disqualified, and the organizing committee would also be required to pay compensation A fine equal to three times the value of the antique.All of this is guaranteed by the casino that recommended the player.

He shook his head, not understanding what was going on,

"My agreement is similar to this, but without the last one..."

At this time, Yan Ju came over and said:

"I know about this matter. Some contestants made the determination earlier, and the agreement they signed first did not have the latter one. Later, the organizing committee found that if all the antiques were identified by them, the workload would be too great. And the time did not allow it, so I changed it to this version. But some players who have a better relationship with the casino, the casino is willing to take this risk for him, so they don't let them change the contract. Xiaowu, MGM should be I believe you will not pit them with fakes."

It was only then that Wu Di realized that indeed, if there was no such provision, it would take a lot of time just to appraise these [-] antiques, let alone the time to drill holes.

Song Shiming sneered twice and said:

"Actually, with the competition like this, it doesn't matter whether the antiques are real or not. Think about it, there is a redemption system after the competition. Even if you take a fake, you just need to redeem it after you lose. Anyway, as long as the organizing committee has money to make, it doesn’t care if you’re real or not?”

Zeng Chengjie was stunned for a moment. It seemed that this was the truth. As long as he was a normal person, he would never throw his antiques to the organizing committee for one-fifth of the redemption price. No big deal either.Moreover, the most important thing is that the contestants are all gamblers, how can they have the ability to distinguish the authenticity of those antiques in the competition?

Deliberately competing with fakes?Wu Di frowned. He suddenly felt that this question seemed to be very important, but he couldn't remember where the key was for a while, so he had to put it aside.

There is a place to inspect antiques inside the MGM Hotel. When Wu Di and the others came down, there were already many people queuing up.

"Even if you don't need an appraisal, this valuation is still a technical job, right? But, you see, they only sent such a young man. Isn't this...a bit of a joke?"

Yan Ju stretched out his head and took a look at the place at the end of the line that was in charge of valuing antiques. He saw only a young man busy, and couldn't help being surprised.

At this time, several other people also discovered this problem and couldn't help but look at each other in blank dismay.That guy seems to be younger than Wu Di. Could it be that he is more evil than Wu Di?You must know that these antiques come from all over the world. Even if they are top appraisers in China, they dare not say that they have seen all of them, let alone estimate the price.

While being confused, I suddenly heard someone yelling in front of me,

"This is Gauguin's woodcarving! Look at it clearly, you only valued Gauguin's woodcarving at 500 million. Do you have eyes?"

Yan Ju spread his hands, you see, before we finish talking here, there are contestants over there who are dissatisfied with the valuation.

"Gauguin's woodcarvings? I remember that apart from his "Young Tahitian Girl" which sold for tens of millions of dollars, it's a question of whether the others are worth 500 million or not."

Chi Menghua thought for a while and said.

"Dude, that buddy seems to be holding the piece of "Young Tahitian Girl", haha, this is a good show."

Zeng Chengjie had sharp eyes and had already seen the contestant's collection.

Seeing the contestant's indignation, the young man in charge of the valuation stood up with a smile and asked:

"Sir, how much do you think your collection should be worth?"

The contestant raised the wood carving in his hand, showed it to the people lining up behind him, and said:

"My "Young Tahitian Girl" was sold at an auction for 100 million U.S. dollars three years ago. Now that it's been so long, it should have risen to 500 million U.S. dollars, right?"

Chi Menghua nodded, 500 million yuan should be a relatively reliable price.

The young man in charge of the valuation had a weird look on his face. He glanced at the contestant and said with a half-smile:

"Well, I admit that I did not accurately estimate the value of this wood carving just now, and I am here to apologize to you. But sir, can you be sure that it is really worth 1000 million?"

The player said triumphantly:

"Five million? I'm sure that according to the current market conditions, if this wood carving is put up for auction, it will definitely fetch a high price of more than 500 million. But this time, I'm participating in a competition, so I won't make it difficult for you. You give An estimate of 2000 million would be about the same.”

The young man in charge of the valuation smiled and sat back in his seat. After a while, he handed over the two completed cards to the contestant.

"Look, if there is no problem with the price, please sign your name here, and we will archive your collection according to this price."

The contestant glanced at the three prices on the card, picked up a pen and signed his name, and left with a smile on his three collections and a card.

Zeng Chengjie's eyes flashed and he frowned. How could he be so easy to talk to?Then if I say later that my precious oil painting is worth [-] million yuan, won't I be able to pass the test easily?

Wu Di also shook his head, isn't this obviously a nonsense?In the end, the price of the collection actually went up just because of the contestant's words... by 1000 million?wrong!I'm stuck, this idiot actually drove himself to death!

He pulled Yan Ju standing in front of him, and asked in a low voice:

"Brother Yan, the rules don't say that the more expensive the antique you take, the more money you'll bet on it, right?"

Yan Ju thought for a moment, shook his head and said:

"No, it seems that no matter how valuable the item is, the stake is only calculated at 500 million US dollars."

"Hehe, that's good, my brothers, if he sets the price of our things higher later, we must remember to fight for it!"

"Are you confused? You still want to fight after setting the high value? Why? You have to be like that, worth more than 1000 million, and you will be comfortable if you set it at 500 million?"

Wang Yuwan gave Wu Di a blank look, and from that expression, he clearly regarded him as an idiot.

Wu Di smiled, with an unpredictable look, and ignored him.

At this time, Yan Ju also laughed,

"That's right, I just ask him to set my collection to 500 million, which is enough to qualify for the competition, and I won't do anything more!"

Wang Yuwan waited to say more, Chi Menghua also thought clearly, he patted Wang Yuwan's shoulder and said with a smile:

"Brother, it seems that you are still too young!"

Wang Yuwan looked around and saw that everyone was looking mysterious, so he couldn't help but annoyed:

"I'm stuck, did you collectively brainstorm today? This thing is worth as much as it should be. It's worth 1000 million, so why should I let him set it at 500 million? Then give me the 500 million lost?"

Zeng Chengjie made a silent expression, and said with deep sorrow:

"Okay, Yu Wan, with your IQ, I think it's better not to participate as soon as possible, this account can't be settled, isn't it obvious that you are sending money to others?"

Wang Yuwan quit, grabbed Wu Di angrily,

"You boy, I think the root is with you, please tell me clearly!"

Seeing that he was really in a hurry, Wu Di laughed softly and said:

"Don't worry, don't worry, let me ask you, are you here to sell antiques today?"

Wang Yuwan shook his head,

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up!"

"Brother, you are here to gamble. Regardless of the value of the antique, the stake is 500 million. So what does it matter if the price is set high or low?"

"Of course it has something to do with it... I'm stuck, I understand, I understand! The higher the price of this card, the higher the price of redemption in the future! Damn, that buddy dug a hole and buried himself in it!"

"Do you understand now? It's not that the young man is amazing, but the work of this valuation is simple! Anyway, no matter how valuable something is, I will always give you a valuation of 500 million! Don't tell me, this organizing committee is really kind." Surnamed!"

Wu Di nodded, glanced at the team in front of him, and said:

"Didn't you see that he didn't argue with him at all just now? It's fine if you want a high price, how high do you want? He dares to fill it in for you for [-] million! Anyway, you signed and confirmed it now, and you won't be able to redeem it when the time comes. People who are confiscated will earn more!"

Sure enough, the rest of the players were also sensible people. Except for the unlucky guy who cheated himself, none of the No. 30 and No. [-] players in front of Wu Di and the others raised any objection to the valuation of the young people.

After taking pictures and filling in the price, finally, Mu Xiaoyang, who was in front of Wu Di and the others, completed the valuation procedure first. He flicked the card in his hand and said with a sneer:

"It's not too high, not too low, 500 million dollars per piece! Now I really have to seriously consider brother Wu Di's proposal. If it's really not possible, let's just sit and watch the treasure, and don't throw in 300 million dollars for nothing!" (To be completed continued.)
