Chapter 1267 Song Lao's Intention
Li Yang leaned over and looked at it carefully.
"This is the first person you want to pay attention to!"
Chen Wou-Ki took out the first document, which had a photo and name, as well as a resume and a description of his characteristics, which was very detailed.
"Zhou?"
Seeing this information, Li Yang was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that the first thing Chen Wuji took out was Zhou Hao's information, but he had just met this person.
"Yes, that's him!"
The old man's face showed a rare serious expression, glanced at the content of the information, and said softly: "Although Zhou Hao is young, his strength should not be underestimated, the Zhou imitation he made before has reached the level of a top master, I have found a work he has made recently, he does have the corresponding level, top master, even you have not reached it!" ”
After Chen Wuji finished speaking, he also glanced at Li Yang.
Li Yang nodded silently, he understood Zhou Hao's level, if it weren't for Zhou Hao's bad reputation, his current works would definitely be sought after by the world, and Zhou Hao's level could indeed be compared with the previous Chen Wuji and Hong Lao and others.
"But you don't have to worry, Zhou Hao's level is high, and it is possible to get a good ranking, but this time the champion will definitely not be him!"
Chen Wuji said with a smile again, Li Yang raised his head suddenly, and then understood.
After all, Zhou Hao has done high imitation, has the experience of stumbling, although he has strength, but there are stains on his body, this is the first National Masters, the significance of the championship is not trivial, naturally it is impossible for a person with a stain to win the championship.
After thinking about it, Li Yang sighed and said, "I know, it's all Zhou Fang's fault!" ”
Chen Wuji looked at Li Yang and smiled: "Not really, this competition may be more difficult than I thought before, even if it is more than the real level, Zhou Hao is not the highest one!" ”
"Not the highest?"
Li Yang's brows condensed unnaturally, he suddenly looked at Chen Wuji, and asked anxiously, "You mean, there are still people who have reached the level of a top master?" ”
Zhou Hao is already a top master, if someone is stronger than him, he must have the same strength, so Li Yang asked.
"That's right, according to my investigation, Qi Lao's son Qi Haitian has also reached this level, but it has never been announced to the public before!"
"Elder Hetian Qi!"
Li Yang looked up at Chen Wouji, Qi Lao he had seen, he was one of the four top jade carving masters who were as famous as Chen Wouji before, and he was the Taishan Beidou of the Hetian jade carving industry.
Hotan has Hetian jade, has rich resources, where the jade carvers are easier to exercise and play, for a long time, the northwest jade carving is centered on Hetian.
"Qi Haitian is a genius, if he hadn't been in Hotan all the time and rarely went out, his name would have come out a long time ago!"
Chen Wuji sighed softly, Qi Haitian is the son of Qi Lao, and he is also the pride of Qi Lao, and his level was not low before, but it was only about the same as Huang Hao.
Last year, Chen Wou-Ki broke through to become a grandmaster, which was the prosperity of the jade carving industry, but at the same time, it also stabbed many people.
Qi Haitian is one of them, after Chen Wuji's successful example, he studied harder, and also exercised himself in various impossible environments.
For example, he once used to carve with tools in the windiest places on the top of the mountain, and he also worked wholeheartedly on the works he wanted in the center of the most prosperous downtown area.
He even exercised himself in a river with a relatively fast current, and his hard work paid off, and his methods seemed a little strange, but in the end, he really made a breakthrough in success.
His strength has truly reached the level of a top master, and his works can already be compared with his father's peak.
"No wonder, I said why so many people shout that the North can prevail over the South!"
"With Qi Haitian, the possibility of winning the championship in the north is very high, and he is also one of your biggest opponents!"
Chen Wuji smiled and handed over Qi Haitian's information to Li Yang.
"One of them? You mean, there are also people who have reached the level of top masters? ”
Li Yang suddenly raised his head and looked at Chen Wuji in astonishment, with Zhou Hao and Qi Haitian here, it had already put a lot of pressure on him, Li Yang understood his strength, he had not yet reached the realm of the top masters, and he was still a line away from them.
Chen Wuji nodded: "Several of our old guys have been sealing knives for so many years, it is not an accident that a few top masters have come out again, and it is nothing to have one more, but I am not completely sure of this, I just guess based on the clues, Lao Hong's secrecy measures are very good, I suspect that Huang Hao has also broken through!" ”
"Huang Hao!"
Li Yang looked at Chen Wuji in a daze, but he didn't expect another acquaintance.
"Yes, it's him, Huang Hao is very talented in his own right, he was a continuous champion of the Twin Cities Masters before, in recent months, he has suddenly stopped taking jobs, and no works have been produced, I suspect that he has made a breakthrough and deliberately hid his strength, just for this Masters!"
"If you don't take the job, it doesn't mean that you must break through, right?"
Li Yang hesitated slightly, what Chen Wuji was saying now was just speculation, and this speculation sounded like it was so reluctant.
"It's just these, of course, it doesn't mean, I have been in contact with Lao Hong in the past few months, Lao Hong will be a little proud every time he calls, I also met him a few days ago, he and Lao Qi, Lao Song blew his nose and stared, saying that this victory must be them in Suzhou!"
Chen Wuji didn't say anything about this, but Li Yang already understood what he meant.
Huang Hao suddenly stopped work, Hong Lao was so happy and confident, so Huang Hao's possibility of making a breakthrough by himself was really big, although Hong Lao kept it a secret, but he couldn't control his emotions.
These old people, who have been engaged in a lifetime of craftsmanship, are very straight, and the older they are, the older they are, the more they tend to be children, and it is purely normal to flow out some emotions that should not be there.
"Whether he breaks through or not, this is a fierce opponent for you!"
Chen Wuji said again, Li Yang nodded, and looked at Huang Hao's information carefully.
He and Huang Hao have known each other for a long time, but they don't know much about Huang Hao's style or anything, and this information can just supplement this.
"These three people are your biggest opponents this time, Li Yang, your strength is a little worse than them, but you also have your advantages, this time, you must give full play to all your advantages, only in this way can you hope to get the best ranking!"
"Master, I understand, don't worry, I will work hard!"
Li Yang nodded and continued to look at the materials carefully.
Chen Wuji looked at Li Yang, smiled and nodded, and walked out slowly, leaving a quiet space for Li Yang.
At this meeting, Li Yang did feel a lot of pressure.
Before, he always thought that only Zhou Hao was the top master, but he didn't expect that there would be so many, two confirmed top masters, and one was not determined, which is equivalent to having three biggest competitors.
The pressure is great, but it is not enough to make Li Yang desperate, on the contrary, Li Yang's heart still has a fighting spirit.
Li Yang's strength is indeed a little worse than them, but this is not irreparable.
Li Yang also has his own advantages, his biggest advantage is in the knife technique, now he has used the Wukun knife extremely proficiently, and the knife carving method has also been fully understood. Not only that, but he also combined Lu Zigang's knife carving method with Chen Wouji's knife carving method to create his own jade carving knife method.
It is creation, not learning, in the past six months, by chance, Li Yang has created a set of his own jade carving method, which has been praised by Chen Wuji.
Self-created things are more convenient and natural to use than things learned.
After creating his own jade carving method, Chen Wou-Ki concluded that Li Yang would definitely be able to reach his previous glory, which meant that there was no problem in reaching the top master.
This was the case with Chen Wou-Ki himself, and within a few years of his own creation of the carving technique, he was promoted to a top master.
What Li Yang lacks now is time.
The jade carving method created by himself is Li Yang's biggest advantage, and another point is the advantage of raw materials.
Black and white impermanence is rare to see in a hundred years, unlike other top jadeite, at least a few years can still produce one or two pieces, as long as the real jade, carving masters as long as they are willing, as long as they work hard, they can still be found.
Black and white are impermanent, and it is unavoidable for any jade carver.
Li Yang's black and white glass is impermanent, which is his second advantage, the advantage in raw materials, combined with his self-created jade carving method, is enough to make up for the gap between him and the top masters.
However, the final result will depend on the last day of competition.
What Li Yang has can only be said to be an advantage that others do not have, and there is no absolute, the jade carving itself is not strictly judged, and the final result depends on all the judges that day.
"Old Chen, so leisurely, Li Yang has arrived, right?"
Li Yang was looking at the information, and a hearty voice suddenly came from outside, which woke Li Yang up.
"Old Song, why are you here again?"
Chen Wuji was shaking his body in the courtyard reading a book, and suddenly raised his head and looked at an old man in front of him with a frown.
Li Yang, who was in the room, also walked out when he heard the voice, this old man was no stranger to him, he used to be as famous as Chen Wuji, and Song Lao, the leader of the northern jade carving.
"Li Yang, you kid ran really fast, I happened to be not in the hotel when you came!"
When Song Lao saw Li Yang, he immediately walked over with a smile, and Chen Wuji shook his body and stopped him at once.
"I said Lao Chen, why are you blocking me?"
Song Lao raised his head and screamed angrily, the anger on Chen Wuji's face was even greater than his.
"In your way? Of course I'm going to stand in your way, it's not good for you to stay in the hotel, waiting to be a judge with peace of mind, what are you doing here? ”
Chen Wuji shouted loudly, he knew very well what Song Lao meant, and it was because he knew that he was so angry and blocked him from going inside.
