Chapter 1058: Brewing the Same Kind of Tea
Afterwards, Chen Yi, Fan Lao and others went to a hotel near the stadium to dine with other judges and contestants.
Today's lunch is completely in charge of the cultural propaganda department of the small island country, and this tea ceremony event has attracted many people to watch, including countries from all over the world, which is of great help to the spread of the tea ceremony culture of their small island country.
Of course, if Chen Yi fails in the afternoon competition, they will be even more excited, Chen Yi's failure is enough to raise the fame of their tea ceremony culture to a new height, even if Chen Yi himself is not a representative of the Chinese tea ceremony.
In the hotel, Chen Yi, Fan Lao, and Yuan Lao, as well as other judges, as well as officials from the small island nation's cultural propaganda department, including Hideo Watanabe, sat at a table.
For the afternoon competition, this noon meal is basically food-based, without any alcohol.
During the meal, Hideo Watanabe stood up with a smile, raised the teacup and said to Chen Yi: "Mr. Chen, replace wine with tea, toast you, I am very much looking forward to our afternoon competition, I think with your tea ceremony level, you will not disappoint the audience." ”
Hearing the irony in Hideo Watanabe's words, Chen Yi showed a thick smile on his face, slowly stood up, picked up the teacup and touched it with Hideo Watanabe, "Mr. Watanabe, you seem to have misunderstood the original meaning of the tea ceremony, the original meaning of the tea ceremony is to cultivate one's self and cultivate one's temperament, and you can communicate with others, but it is not completely just for the pleasure of others, so whether the audience is disappointed or not is not at all within the scope of our tea ceremony communication." ”
Watanabe Hideo was stunned, he didn't expect Chen Yi to fight back so unceremoniously, and then he smiled coldly in his heart. This is nothing more than Chen Yi wants to be the imminent defeat for himself. Just find a reason. "Oh, Mr. Chen understands the meaning of the tea ceremony so well, then I look forward to communicating with you." With that, he took a sip of tea and sat down.
He felt that it was really useless to entangle too many words with Chen Yi, and Chen Yi was sharp-tongued. In terms of words, he doesn't seem to take too much advantage, so speaking with facts is the real ability, and he will let Chen Yi know that speaking well does not mean that he will definitely win.
After lunch, Chen Yi, Fan Lao and the others entered the open room to rest. After a morning of watching, they were all a little tired.
Chen Yi came to his room. Sitting cross-legged on the bed, I started the internal breath in my body, and after the operation, I suddenly felt refreshed all over my body.
He didn't pay much attention to the afternoon competition, after all, he had the same great confidence in the tea ceremony as calligraphy.
After reading the book in the storage space, when there was still half an hour before the game, he withdrew from the space, washed up, and was just about to go out, when he heard the shouts of Fan Lao and Yuan Lao outside the door.
He walked out of the room, came to the hotel lobby with Fan Lao Yuan, and followed the others back to the nearby stadium not far away.
At this moment, although there are still about twenty minutes before the start of the game, almost all the people in the entire stadium have already returned, and they will change to other games, even if it is a ball game, some of them may not come, but this afternoon, the first game is the appearance of Chen Yi, who they are most looking forward to, how can they not come.
Seeing Chen Yi and other contestants, and the judges entering one after another, a burst of shouts broke out again at the scene, and many people shouted Chen Yi's name in unison.
Hearing this deafening shout at the scene, Hideo Watanabe's face showed a look of envy, jealousy and hatred, he looked in the direction of Chen Yi, and thought with schadenfreude in his heart, the more famous he is now, the faster his fame will fall when he fails.
He was really looking forward to the situation after Chen Yi's failure, everyone on the scene scolded him, a calligrapher, not good at writing calligraphy, what kind of tea ceremony to play, without decades of experience, dare to compete with him, really don't know the sky.
Chen Yi ignored Watanabe's gaze, waved his hand to everyone at the scene, and then sat down in the contestants' seats.
And in the viewing seat of the venue, Kimura Yijian saw Chen Yi waving his hand, as if he had returned triumphantly, with a sneer on his face, he had waited for so long, just to wait for the moment when Chen Yi failed.
Chen Yi's failure can not only make him feel extremely comfortable, but also means that he can obtain a calligraphy written by Chen Yi himself, although these things can not make Chen Yi ruined, but they can also greatly reduce his reputation.
Failure in the tea ceremony can also shatter the myth formed by Chen Yi, and make many people recover from their fanatical support for Chen Yi, knowing that Chen Yi is just an ordinary person.
Chen Yi, you will definitely regret it, this will be a turning point in your life, Kimura Kazuken said with hatred in his heart.
At this time, the host also held the microphone and shouted to the crowd: "Audience, you are welcome to come here on time and join us in the afternoon tea ceremony competition, in the morning tea ceremony competition, Mr. Watanabe Hideo won six people in a row, and won six consecutive victories, which once again shows the high level of Mr. Watanabe's tea ceremony." ”
"In the afternoon, the tea ceremony competition continues, and in the afternoon competition, how many victories Mr. Watanabe can achieve, we will wait and see, and the next game is the seventh game, please tell me loudly, who will be the next person to compete with Mr. Watanabe."
The crowd at the scene shouted Chen Yi's name again, pushing the atmosphere of the entire tea ceremony competition to the top.
Seeing this situation, Chen Yi smiled, and naturally knew that the reason why the host pursued himself so much was to make this competition more attention, and if he lost, it would play a great role in promoting the spread of the tea ceremony in the small island country.
It's just that the next competition will really be as these people guessed, a thick smile appeared on his face.
"As you said, the next seventh competition, Mr. Chen Yi and Mr. Watanabe will face off, whether Mr. Chen Yi can defeat Mr. Watanabe, please watch carefully, now please go to the competition area and start preparing." The host gestured to Chen Yi and Hideo Watanabe.
Under the guidance of the staff, Chen Yi and Hideo Watanabe each sat down at a tea table and began to check some tea sets on the tea table to see if they were complete.
Soon, after the two finished checking, they signaled to the staff, and the host said again: "Please Mr. Chen Yi and Mr. Watanabe confirm the tea they want to make, and inform our staff, everyone, you might as well guess in your heart, Mr. Chen Yi and Mr. Watanabe, what kind of tea will the two of them make." ”
Hideo Watanabe didn't go to tell the staff directly, but looked at Chen Yi and asked with a smile, "Mr. Chen, I don't know what kind of tea you want to make." ”
"Oh, is Watanabe-sama going to make the same tea as me?" Chen Yi said with some surprise.
"Haha, brewing the same kind of tea is more contrasting, and it can better reflect the level of the two of us, who is higher and who is lower, what do you think?" Hideo Watanabe said with a laugh.
In the previous six competitions, he brewed tea from small island countries, and in this competition with Chen Yi, he would rather not make tea from small island countries, but also let Chen Yi lose face to the end.
The same kind of tea is brewed by two different people, which can naturally reflect the difference in the ability of the two people, and also makes the judges more praised.
"Oh, listening to the words of Mr. Chen Yi and Mr. Watanabe, the two of them seem to want to brew the same kind of tea, which is indeed more contrasting, even ordinary people, can also taste the difference between the tea soup made by the two, what kind of tea will the two of them choose, my heart is full of expectations, I believe you are the same." At this time, the host standing next to Chen Yi and the others, with a different color on his face, said to everyone at the scene.
There was also a burst of cheers from everyone at the scene, everyone was looking forward to the tea selected by Chen Yi and the others, which one would be, according to their guesses, the possibility of Chen Yi choosing the top ten famous teas in China was very large.
Hearing Watanabe's almost crazy laughter, Chen Yi nodded and said with a smile: "Among the top ten famous teas in China, I am most familiar with Tieguanyin, Mr. Watanabe, why don't we soak Tieguanyin." ”
Tieguanyin, hearing the tea variety chosen by Chen Yi, Watanabe Hideo's face showed a touch of different color, among the top ten famous teas in China, most of them are green tea, among which Junshan Yinzhen belongs to yellow tea, Qimen black tea belongs to black tea, and there are two kinds of oolong tea that are famous all over the world, respectively, Wuyi Mountain rock tea, among which Dahongpao is the most representative, and the remaining one is Anxi Tieguanyin, oolong tea is blue and white, between green tea and black tea.
As far as he knows, this kind of oolong famous tea, which has participated in the expositions at home and abroad in China, is basically the leader, has won many awards, and enjoys a high reputation, among which it is the first appearance of the top ten famous teas at the China Tianhai World Expo.
Unlike green tea, which is brewed once or twice, this oolong tea is famous for its resistance to brewing, and Tieguanyin has the reputation of seven bubbles with aftertaste, not only in China, but also in their small island country, which is also loved by many people.
Tieguanyin is the most famous, is one of the indescribable Guanyin rhyme, this is the Chinese generations of tea people, scholars are exploring the problem, they want to express it in words, but unfortunately, but can not do, in the end there is a sentence, can only understand, unspeakable regret.
Watanabe Hideo feels that among the top ten famous teas in China, if you want to brew Tieguanyin to the peak level, you must let people clearly feel the Guanyin rhyme, but this Guanyin rhyme is something that can't be explained, in his heart, this Tieguanyin is the most difficult to reach the apex of a kind of tea.
And Chen Yi now wants to soak Tieguanyin with him, which is simply ridiculous, although his Tieguanyin, although he has not yet reached the peak level, but it is also much stronger than Chen Yi, a young man. (To be continued......)
