Chapter 1194 The Competition Begins

Jieyang Gymnasium, this day can be said to be crowded with people.

The publicity made before the first National Jade Carving Masters Competition has paid off. More than 1 people came to watch this competition, most of them are people in the jade industry.

In Pingzhou alone, hundreds of people came this time, and it is said that more than 2000 people came from a province in Yunnan.

This can be regarded as a grand event in the jade carving industry. Many people who are engaged in the jade carving industry are very excited. In the past, such a lively event was only in the stone gambling fair, or only in the jade fair.

This is a grand event that truly belongs to their jade carving industry.

"There are so many people!"

Having already arrived at the venue, Li Yang, who was in the big meeting room of the gymnasium, couldn't help sighing as he looked at the people in the square outside the window.

The audience has not yet arrived, but the gathering of thousands of people is also very spectacular.

"The Jade Association has finally done one thing right this time. We really shouldn't have done things behind closed doors before!"

Huang Hao walked to Li Yang's side and spoke slowly, with the same deep emotion as Li Yang.

In the past, the Suzhou Jieyang Shuangcheng Masters Tournament had never been made public to the public. Only people in their own circle participated. Although they had made progress, the general environment had not changed.

This time, the Jade Association took the lead in expanding the Twin Cities Masters, making it truly a grand event in the jade carving industry, and it was considered a good deed.

"How about it, do you feel stage fright?"

Li Yang looked at Huang Hao with a smile. There were quite a few people in the big conference room, and they all gathered together in small groups. They were all jade carving masters who came to participate in the competition.

These people are usually scattered all over the place, and they all have a certain reputation in the local area. Only such an opportunity can bring them together.

"I still have stage fright at such an old age, you should take care of yourself first, you young people are not as stable as us!"

Huang Hao's voice became a little louder. He was indeed much older than Li Yang. Speaking of which, Li Yang was the youngest person in this masters competition.

"Do you think I'll be stage fright?"

Li Yang chuckled, Huang Hao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head helplessly.

Li Yang had never seen any scene before, and it was really not easy to make him stage fright. When Li Yang brought the Chuanguo Yuxi, he had to face tens of thousands of people.

"Mr. Li, I heard that you are representing BJ and Jieyang this time?"

When Zhou Ye came over, Huang Hao immediately turned his head away. Huang Hao's prejudice against Zhou Ye came from the bottom of his heart, and it was really not easy for him to change.

"Yes, I live in BJ, but I also have property in Jieyang, so that's the only way!"

Li Yang nodded with a smile. After he made this suggestion the day before yesterday, Elder Song and Chen Wuji discussed it, and they finally agreed.

Elder Song understands very well that it is impossible for Li Yang to completely represent BJ, and he would not agree to such a thing. Why should the apprentices I trained represent you in the competition.

Chen Wuji also thought about it, BJ's situation this year is really not good, Li Yang really lives in BJ, his time in BJ is much longer than in Jieyang.

In addition, Chen Wuji also considered that if Li Yang represents BJ, if he gets good results, he can quickly establish his own prestige, and even become the leader of BJ's side.

In the jade carving industry, prestige is very important. Wen Wu is the first, Wu Wu is the second, and the jade carving industry is the same. If the level is similar, no one will be convinced, especially for a young person like Li Yang, it is very difficult to get the approval of others. not easy.

This Masters Tournament is an opportunity for Li Yang to subdue many people with his strength.

"You are the first person with dual nationality among so many contestants among us. I heard others talking about it just now!"

Zhou Ye smiled, Li Yang represented the two places in the competition, which indeed caused a whirlwind.

However, many people are not optimistic about Li Yang, and there are a lot of gossips, mainly because Li Yang is too young. He has achieved so many achievements at such a young age, which makes many people jealous and jealous.

Even masters have pink eye.

"It's okay, just let them talk!"

Li Yang chuckled, and when he spoke, the gymnasium had already started to enter the arena. After the audience entered the arena, it was the opening ceremony, and then it was their turn to perform on stage.

This Masters Tournament has attracted a lot of attention.

Chairman Gao of the China Precious Metals Association, the National Sculpture Association and some influential international organizations all sent people to participate.

Guangdong also sent a high-ranking official, Jieyang was even a high-ranking city official, and the mayor was all present. This time, the Masters Tournament was scheduled to be held in Jieyang, and it also made a good advertisement for this place.

There were many people who came, but the opening ceremony was not long, and the Jade Association's grasp this time was pretty good.

After the opening ceremony, all the judges were introduced. This time there were twelve judges in total, and Chen Wuji was the first judge. When he stood up, the audience gave a warm applause.

As the only master in the jade carving industry, Chen Wuji can also be said to be the pride of all his peers, and also the goal of many ambitious people. Everyone who is engaged in the jade carving industry wants to be able to reach Chen Wuji's level.

"Get out!"

When it was finally time for Grandmaster to play, Huang Hao looked at Li Yang beside him with a smile, his eyes were a little complicated.

He knew that this little junior had very little luck, and he also knew that he had good talent, but after all, the time he had been in contact with jade carving was too short, as short as one year.

One year, at this time, he was still learning basic skills, but he already had the strength to participate in the Masters.

This means that Li Yang has gone through decades of his journey in one year, and there is really no way to compare it with others.

He thought of his master, Mr. Hong again. Mr. Hong had made a mistake this time. At first, Mr. Hong thought that letting Li Yang learn jade carving was to distract Li Yang's experience, and the gain outweighed the gain.

Now everyone understands how hot Chen Wuji's eyes are, to have unearthed such a monstrous genius, in terms of eyesight, none of them are as good as Chen Wuji.

After all the people entered the venue, Chen Wuji stood up directly. After the people in the venue saw Chen Wuji, many people who spoke fell silent. From this, we can also see the terrifying influence of Chen Wuji.

"Everyone, I have just mentioned the process of participating in the competition. I will not go into details. I will present ten jade carving works to you in a while. The materials of these works are different, and the time is different. You only need to tell the advantages and disadvantages of them. Please also raise your spirits, and don't take any errands!"

"Ha ha!"

As soon as Chen Wuji finished speaking, many people in the audience laughed. Their laughter was not small, and some participating masters began to frown.

The noise is not small, and the noise this time is also a major difficulty for them. Some people who like to be quiet suffer a lot more than others.

Only a few people were smiling all the time, paying no attention to the noise around them.

Li Yang is one of them, and Li Yang will be focusing on one of them.

This person is Qi Haiyang, the youngest son of Qi Lao, the new leader of Hetian, and the new top master.

Qi Haiyang is younger than Huang Hao, and can be regarded as the younger one among the masters. He is only 43 years old this year. At this time, Qi Haiyang is wearing a black collarless shirt, black shoes and black trousers. The color of the clothes is very simple, but look Looks very energetic.

With one hand on his back, Qi Haiyang was also looking around. When Li Yang looked at him, he also looked at Li Yang, and smiled kindly at Li Yang.

He knew that Li Yang's stone betting ability was very strong, and he also knew that Li Yang's exposure to jade carving was very short, and he was a rare genius once in a thousand years, but he didn't know Li Yang's current strength.

In his eyes, Li Yang is still the same as before, just a new jade carving master. There is a big gap between such a jade carving master and a senior master, and a top master like him.

Like Huang Hao, he just thought that Li Yang was here to feel the atmosphere, learn experience, and go through the motions, and he didn't regard Li Yang as an opponent.

It is possible that Li Yang would not be able to survive the first two rounds.

The competition started, and someone came over with the first jade carving. This is not a small Lantian jade ornament. It was a masterpiece made by famous masters in the middle of the Qing Dynasty. Even Li Yang did not expect that the first jade carving work was produced. It is ancient jade.

All the people are silent, looking at this jade carving carefully, they want to quickly analyze whether the jade carving is good or bad, and then make a conclusion.

Two staff members pushed their carts past each of the participating masters, and the people in the audience stopped talking and looked down quietly.

On the big screen of the stadium, this moving jade carving was also focused on tracking.

The jade carvings that were pushed out did not stop at all, and left directly after turning around everyone. Some participating masters began to close their eyes, carefully recalling the observations just now.

They have to write out all the pros and cons.

"here we go again!"

Some people hadn't closed their eyes for a long time when they heard the shouts of people around them. Many people hurriedly opened their eyes. After the two carts left just now, a new cart came in. There was also a Jade carving works.

The jade carving work this time is a Hetian jade ornament, which is not small in size, and soon the cart arrived in front of the participating masters.

These participating masters were not stupid. They felt something was wrong when they saw the second cart. Many of them turned pale, and some of them hurriedly wrote something on the table in front of them.

These participating masters also did not expect that today's ten jade carving works will be launched continuously. Continuous and separate are definitely two different things. If they are released continuously, they must continuously observe, think and sort out when they have no time. Originally, some confident masters , Now my heart is starting to feel mysterious.

At this time, they finally understood why Chen Wuji reminded them not to wander off. In this situation, they really couldn't be distracted, and it would be troublesome if they were distracted.

The Masters Tournament, or the first Masters Tournament, was not as easy as imagined.

The second piece of jade carving quickly passed by everyone, and the third piece was pushed out directly. This time it was a jade ornament, and it was also an old thing. It was a jade carving from the late Qing Dynasty.

The first three jade carvings, two old ones, and one new one, it took less than 10 minutes for all three jade carvings to go through in front of the participating masters.
