Chapter 453: The Battle of the Sixteen
The results of the second round of tests were all out very quickly.
A total of 48 of the 64 contestants were eliminated.
And the remaining sixteen people were successfully promoted!
......
A ten-minute break.
At this time, the last sixteen contestants sat in the two rows of seats in front of them to rest.
"Ning Ning, what's next... You know what?"
Tang Yun sat next to Lin Ningning and asked.
"Hmm... It's supposed to be an antique appraisal, right?"
Lin Ningning tilted his head and thought, "Now there are only the last sixteen people left, I think it should be right......"
Antique appraisal?
Tang Yun knew something about this.
If his guess is correct, the last round should be to identify the authenticity of several antiques, and then rank them according to their scores.
The three with the highest scores should be the top three in this year's antique competition......
Actually, Tang Yun's conjecture was right!
At the end of the 10-minute break, the host stood on the stage and said to the 16 contestants below: "Please come to the stage with the 16 contestants! Next, it will be the last round of the antique competition! At the same time, we will decide the top three in this round of this contest!"
Hearing the host's words, the last sixteen contestants got up from their seats one after another, and then walked to the stage in turn.
After the sixteen contestants had stood up in turn, ten beautiful hostesses began to walk up to the stage, holding a plate covered with a red cloth in their hands.
After placing the plates in their hands on the long table one by one, the hostesses retreated to the back of the stage.
Immediately afterwards, the host uncovered the red cloth on the plate one by one.
I saw that on the ten plates were all kinds of different antiques, including porcelain, jade, calligraphy and paintings.
"Next, our sixteen contestants will have half an hour to take a closer look at these ten antiques......
As the host spoke, he handed the answer sheet in his hand to the sixteen contestants on the stage.
On the answer sheet, ten numbers from O1 to 1O are printed.
After each number, there are options for √ and x. (√ stands for the genuine and X stands for fakes and imitations. )
In addition, at the end of the number, there are two spaces printed on them, which refer to the specific age of the object. (Limited to: from the Tang Dynasty to modern times)
On this table, there are a total of ten antiques, and each antique has a score of 10.
Among them, you can get five points for guessing the authenticity of an antique correctly, and you can get five points again for guessing the specific age of the antique.
However, these ten antiques can only be seen, not touched with hands, otherwise, they will be deducted points by the judges.
This time, many contestants on the scene frowned secretly.
If you don't use your hands, you may miss some details if you only look at them with the naked eye, which can lead to errors in judgment.
It seems that this round of competition is not easy......
"Guys, let's get started!"
As the host's voice fell, the sixteen contestants on the stage formed a circle around the long table.
Tang Yun was standing in the middle, and he could clearly see the specific appearance of the ten antiques on the table.
From left to right, start counting.
The first antique, located on the left side of the table, is a painting.
The scroll seems to be quite long, and the host does not open it completely, only the part of the middle picture.
The scene in this painting depicts a large vase filled with pine, bamboo, and plum, and on the right side of the bottle is a small plate with persimmons and lilies.
In addition, behind this large vase, there is also a painting of Ruyi.
Although this painting is a work of ink painting, it is full of lush and fragrant atmosphere.
Many contestants who saw this painting couldn't help but nod their heads and express their appreciation.
Some even wrote their guessed answers to the painting on the answer sheet.
Tang Yun lowered his head and carefully looked at the inscription on the painting.
The inscription of this painting reads, "Pengxin Laoqiao was written in the official pavilion of Zhicheng, three days before the beginning of spring in Jiachen." ”
Jiachen?
Tang Yun remembered that the year of Jiachen was one of the first Jiazi in the lunar calendar, such as 2o24, 1964, and 19o4...... It is based on a cycle of 6o years.
Tang Yun estimated that the age of this painting should refer to the Qing Dynasty......
As for whether this painting is real or fake, for now, it is not clear what it is.
Taking a deep breath, Tang Yun gathered his spirit, his eyes fixed on the scroll.
After about half a minute, Tang Yun retracted his gaze, and then quietly wrote the answer to the first antique on his answer.
......
The second antique is a piece of porcelain, and it is also a piece of blue and white porcelain.
About the size of this piece of blue and white porcelain.
Its height is about 48 centimeters, the diameter of the mouth is about 12 centimeters, and the foot diameter of the bottom is about 15 centimeters.
Tang Yun looked at this blue and white porcelain carefully from top to bottom.
This piece of porcelain has a short neck, slightly plump shoulders, a bulging upper and lower constriction, a flat bottom without a shaft, and a white-glazed blue and white decoration throughout.
The picture of the bottle is the rising sun, white clouds swirling, the bottom is a strong strange stone, and the figures in the middle are Gaoshi, Yuanwai and samurai.
The lines of the picture are hard and the layers are clear, and the style of the whole porcelain is elegant, fresh, strong and upright.
The more Tang Yun looked at it, the more he felt fond of it.
"If I'm right, this porcelain should be genuine......"
Tang Yun secretly estimated and touched it, and at the same time "looked" at the bottle of this blue and white porcelain.
"That's ...... so"
Half a minute later, Tang Yun retracted his gaze, and then wrote the answer to the second antique on the answer sheet.
......
The third antique is a jade artifact.
Tang Yun just glanced at it, and then marked the third antique with an "X" on the answer sheet, and filled in "modern" at the same time.
This is an antique jade, and the workmanship is so fine that in Tang Yun's opinion, it is completely fake and can no longer be fake.
Then, Tang Yun looked at the fourth antique.
The fourth antique is a monochrome porcelain vase.
The height is about 1o cm, and the overall shape is relatively simple, somewhat similar to water chestnuts, commonly known as horseshoe.
The color of the mouth of this porcelain vase is milky white, and the bottom of the mouth is all vermilion.
After careful observation for a while, Tang Yun silently typed the option of this monochrome porcelain vase "√" on the answer sheet, and filled in the "Qing Dynasty" in the last date option.
After filling in the answers to the first four antiques, Tang Yun looked up at the time displayed by the alarm clock on the table.
Fortunately, it's only been about ten minutes.
Even if you look at it slowly, you can completely ...... ()
