Jin Yutong

Chapter 58 The competition ends

In the end, Chen Ran did not choose a piece of jade, which was considered abstention, and abstention means admitting defeat. After being deducted ten points, no matter what, he was excluded from the first position. It can be said that there are all kinds of thoughts, and then everyone turned their attention to the judges' seat.

The first to give the result is naturally Ma Jian.

The ancient jade selected by Ma Jian has already been approved by many judges, so Professor Xie directly announced: "No. [-] passes the test, plus [-] points!"

As soon as this remark came out, there was a burst of cheers from the guest seats in Hanhai, and Ma Jian waved his hand with a smile on his face, looking very high-spirited.

"Okay, let's see the result of contestant No. [-]!"

With a wave of his hand, Professor Xie took the brocade box from Lu Tianming's hand, this time he didn't even look at it, and directly passed the brocade box to the judging panel. Just click on the number, but for the sake of prudence, if you are afraid of getting the number wrong, you have to ask many judges to review it, which is also to make the audience feel fair.

Hearing the result of Lu Tianming's review, everyone also quieted down and waited eagerly. After all, Lu Tianming was the most vocal one, and if there were no accidents, Lu Tianming would be the number one.

The audience was silent, only a shout came from the guest seat of Yuyuan: "No. [-] will win!"

Lu Tianming stood on the high platform with a smile on his face, and when he heard the yelling, he also waved gracefully towards the guest seats in the Royal Garden.

The brocade box selected by Lu Tianming was passed on to old man Wang first. Old man Wang glanced at the serial number on the brocade box, grinned in an unknown way, and passed it on to him again without looking at it. Elder Lu, who was sitting on his right, was still grinning and said: "Our No. [-] is from a famous family, why don't you look at it, you can't be wrong, come on, old Lu, why don't you take a look first?"

"Haha, the unworthy son made everyone look ugly!" Lu Lao said modestly, but his face was full of complacency. He didn't take the brocade box, but waved his hand: "In order to avoid suspicion, I Don't look at it, everyone, take a good look!"

"I really don't want to look at it!" Old Wang's voice was a bit yin and yang, but Lu Lao didn't hear it, but waved his hands, with a look of avoiding suspicion: "Don't look at it! Don't look at it!"

The old man Wang then handed the brocade box to Yan Ruyu. Yan Ruyu opened the brocade box, glanced at it, but didn't say a word, just smiled, and passed the brocade box to an old man on her left, but the old man It's a jade appraiser from Dongdu. The judges are not only from Zhongdu, but also from prefecture-level cities. After all, the competition is a matter for the entire province, not just Zhongdu.

After the old man looked at it, he passed it on to the next person without saying anything.

After looking at it one after another, they were all noncommittal, but everyone seemed to glance at the smug Mr. Lu from time to time, and then the corners of their mouths twitched slightly, and even two or three judges were satisfied. He nodded with a smile on his face.

In this way, although the result was not directly stated, the audience also guessed it. Cheers came from the guest seats in the Royal Garden, and Lu Tianming also waved his hands with a smile on his face, and couldn't help but feel complacent. Glancing at Chen Ran, he seemed to say, this young master stepped on you!

Seeing this scene, Mr. Lu, who was a little worried at first, also put away his thoughts, and his face became more and more proud. His pride made the smiles on the faces of the other judges even stronger. What's more, , one of the gray-haired old men smiled at Lu Lao: "Old Lu, we in the Central Plains rely on your Lu family to make us proud. It's really a tiger without a dog. Your Lu family is getting stronger from generation to generation. !"

"Where! Where!" Elder Lu was proud of himself, but humble on his lips.

In the end, the brocade box was passed to old man Wang. Old man Wang glanced at Mr. Lu, put the brocade box in front of him, and nodded to Professor Xie.The meaning of his nod is actually that the number is right, so just follow the number.

Immediately afterwards, Professor Xie announced: "Number one—"

Before Professor Xie's voice fell, there was warm applause from the audience, which drowned Professor Xie's voice at once, especially the cheers from the guest seats in the Royal Garden were even more intense, and the entire audience's voice was covered pressed down.

Lu Tianming also waved his hands towards the auditorium with high spirits.

"Cough cough cough..." Professor Xie's face was a little embarrassed. He coughed for a while in front of the microphone before suppressing the other voices, and then announced again: "No. 86, if you haven't passed the test, ten points will be deducted. No. 76 The total score is [-] points, ten points are deducted, and it is [-] points!"

"..."

quiet!

silence!

Deathly silence!

Just so suddenly, the entire audience fell into a deathly silence!

At this moment, except for the judges, everyone was dumbfounded, everyone had expressions of disbelief, and everyone opened their mouths in astonishment, as if the whole audience had been frozen... The look on Old Lu's face The proud 'color' also froze there, with a dazed expression on his face.

And Lu Tianming also seemed to be like a stone sculpture, and he still kept waving his hands.

"Not... not cleared?"

Professor Xie's announcement caused Lu Tianming's brain to short-circuit for a while, and he didn't realize the meaning of the three words that hadn't passed the level. It was not until a long time later that he opened his mouth in astonishment, and unconsciously waved his right hand. He pointed at himself.

"I haven't passed the level, I haven't passed the level?"

"I didn't pass the level!"

How can it be!

He almost screamed, and then he turned his head and looked at the judges' seat, only to find that his grandfather was just as dumbfounded as he was. In an instant, suddenly, the flush of excitement on his face was replaced by purple red Of course, the high-spiritedness just now is gone at this time, replaced by wide-open eyes and humiliated anger: "How could I not pass the test!"

After a moment of silence, it was like a thunderbolt that exploded in the audience, and the audience suddenly burst into an uproar. Just now they thought that Lu Tianming had won the first place, so they all asked the people around them, thinking that they had heard it wrong.

The proud look on Lu Lao's face has long since dissipated. At this moment, his face is extremely gloomy, and his slightly fierce eyes keep scanning the other judges. Obviously, he already hates these judges in his heart No one even greeted him, or even winked at him.

In fact, isn't it related to his popularity, the people present are the least popular among them. Ever since the Lu family climbed the high branch of Zhou's family, he has become arrogant. He has never put other people in his eyes, just like just now, If it were someone else, they would hide the pride on their faces, but he didn't hide it at all, and he didn't care about the faces of others.

He was able to take the positions of the vice president of the Jade Association and the vice president of the Central Plains Jewelry Association because of the Zhou family. How could anyone else convince him.

After being swept away by his gaze, the others didn't look at him, they just smiled secretly, and only the old man with gray hair laughed: "Old Lu, your Lu family is really getting stronger from generation to generation!"

Mr. Lu didn't answer, but just sat there with a gloomy face. At this time, no matter what he said, he would lose more face, so it's better not to say it.

Lu Tianming yelled bitterly, but he also became quiet, only with an angry expression on his face.

Then came Professor Xie's loud laughter: "Let's see the score of contestant No. [-]!"

The No. [-] player is Li Baoping, who was supported by the old Phoenix. Li Baoping still maintained his calm attitude, just smiled calmly, neither complacent nor waved, and the seat of the old Phoenix guest just held up a cheering sign .

After the review by the judges, the results of Li Baoping came out soon.

"Contestant No. 81, pass the test, add 96 points! The total score is 1 points, add [-] points, it is [-] points!" As soon as Professor Xie's voice fell, the audience burst into warm applause. At this moment, No. No matter how uncontroversial the position of [-] is, it has to make people feel emotional. The final result is really unexpected.

Chen Ran, who was like a dark horse, just disappeared in a flash... Lu Tianming, who was the most vocal, finally missed the number one... When it was Jiang Xiaotong's turn, everyone seemed to have the same attitude as Jiang Xiaotong. Jiang Xiaotong didn't seem to care about the result at all, and when judging Jiang Xiaotong's final score, everyone was not so nervous and relaxed, as if it didn't matter how much Jiang Xiaotong scored in the end.

However, the result is still a pity. Jiang Xiaotong did not pass the test and was directly deducted 74 points. His original total score was 64 points, and the [-] points were deducted, which is [-] points. No matter what, this score can only be scored among the five Among them was ranked last, even one or two points lower than the two players eliminated before.

Among the five contestants, Li Baoping passed the test and was undisputedly topped the list.

Ma Jian picked up shit luck and ranked second with 85 points.

Lu Tianming immediately stumbled, and suddenly fell from the first position to the third place. This somersault was not a bad fall.

Jiang Xiaotong naturally needless to say, the top three positions have already ruled him out.

In the end, only Chen Ran was left.

It's just that the result remains to be seen... "Unfortunately, you failed to pass the test!" Professor Xie did not announce the result of Chen Ran, but walked directly in front of Chen Ran, and said with a trace of regret, to Chen Ran, he It's still very promising, especially when Mr. Wang asked questions, Chen Ran's fluent answers made him appreciate it, but the result... He could only sigh lightly about this.

In fact, this also reflects the difference between Ye Luzi's background and that of a famous family. Those famous families are undoubtedly the ancestors who play with antiques. At least they have the opportunity to see many antiques, which is what Ye Luzi lacks.

Chen Ran is considered lucky. With his special ability, he has gained some fame. If not, the opportunities to get in touch with old things are very few, and it is even difficult to step into this circle.

Chen Ran was silent for a moment, then he raised his head and looked at Professor Xie: "Can I know which one is the real ancient jade?"
