Compete
"That's embarrassing. It's obviously something that has been passed down from the ancestors, but it has to be so customary that it is lost," Fang He sighed, "If only these crafts could be made public, and everyone would come to learn them." β
"You're just thinking a little bit wild." Qian Guokai sneered, "If all the inheritances can be announced, what is the need to stick to these crafts?" The group training that can't be passed on can be thrown away, so what else can't be thrown away? Aren't these old restorers sticking to these traditions? β
Fang He ignored Qian Guokai and asked Xu Xuanming: "Is this old gentleman still coming to this competition?" β
"I don't know, even if I can come, I shouldn't be able to get a good ranking." Xu Xuanming said, "You are the quota we recommend to participate in the competition, but those folk restorers still have to go through the primary selection before they can come to Fengjing to participate in the competition, which is even harder than you." Many veteran craftsmen will be brushed off at the first try. β
"Then don't try it for the first time." Yu Gan said, "This way it won't be so hard." β
Xu Xuanming shook his head: "This is not good, without the first trial, the cultural relics restoration competition will be more mixed, and the cultural relics restoration competition will lose its original significance." β
"We can't solve these problems." Qian Guokai twisted his eyebrows, "These things are naturally done by big people, can Professor Xu say what aspects of the subjective questions will be tested?" β
"There are four subjective questions, and generally speaking, there will be two questions and three answers to one question," Xu Xuanming explained, "and they will be discussed from several topics such as the history of cultural relics, the source of cultural relics and the evaluation of cultural relics restoration plans, and the subjective questions will be evaluated by each judge and examiner." β
"Professor Xu doesn't know what to ask from?" Qian Guokai asked.
"I don't know," Xu Xuanming said, "There are too many areas that can be examined, for example, the subjective questions of the last cultural relics restoration competition examined the difference between lacquer repair and oil painting restoration." β
"Is there anything to do with the two!?" Yu Gan was stunned, "These are two realms!" β
"It's two fields, but they also have something in common in the restoration skills of cultural relics, and it can only be said that the exam can always ask questions from unexpected places, and it is impossible to prevent it." Xu Xuanming sighed.
"It's too late to make up now." Qian Guokai muttered in a low voice, "It's better to talk about the actual exam process." β
Xu Xuanming was not angry, and pretended not to hear. "The practical competition is divided into several large sections, and from the beginning of the practical operation, the individual competition and the team competition are separated. The first competition content is the authenticity of cultural relics, in our archaeological research the most important thing is the eyesight and feel, if you can't tell the authenticity of the then it will be laughable and generous. β
"That's true," Fang He nodded, "these undergraduate teachers can teach, it shouldn't be too difficult." β
Xu Xuanming patted his head: "You are always thinking about whether it is difficult or not, we didn't expect you to get a good ranking in this competition, and the most important thing is to increase your knowledge." β
"Isn't it true that Teacher Xu is happier the better our grades?" Yu Gan pouted.
Xu Xuanming walked to the whiteboard and erased the previous points about the written test: "We really haven't prepared you to get a good ranking in college, and you are not only professors and doctors, but also folk masters, most of you are participating in the competition for the first time, and it is already good to be able to mix in the second game of the practical competition." β
"And what's the second game of the hands-on game?" Chu Luohua asked.
"The second practical exam will test your understanding of artifacts on a global scale." Xu Xuanming said, "Although we are a big country, we can't do it behind closed doors, so while you learn about the restoration of ancient cultural relics in our country, we will also let you learn the knowledge of cultural relics from other countries." β
"It's not fair." Chu Luohua wrinkled his eyebrows and said, "It's not strange that our students know the history, culture and cultural relics of other countries, but according to what you said, there are still many folk teachers who don't know, they have been dealing with the field they know all their lives, and this competition is unfair to them." β
Xu Xuanming nodded: "I understand what you mean, but in fact, this competition process is set by the Cultural Affairs Bureau, and no one can change it, so we can only adapt." β
Chu Luohua pursed his lips and did not speak again.
"After the second exam, I will officially enter the game of cultural relics restoration." Xu Xuanming said, "In the third exam, you will choose the tools you need for cultural relics restoration at the beginning, but in the exam, you will use a lottery to remove one of the tools you choose. β
"Isn't this a joke?" Yu Gan's eyes widened, "Why did you take away the tools?" Wouldn't it be impossible to repair if you took away the tools? β
"This test will test whether you have a way to cope in times of crisis when you lack tools." Xu Xuanming said, "No matter what, you have to complete the restoration of cultural relics, you can't open empty windows, as for whether you make a tool on the spot or will have the tools in your hands, it's up to you." β
Lu Naqi, who had not spoken at this time, raised his hand and asked: "Then we can choose many tools that we don't use, and it would be good if we drew lots and got the tools that we didn't use?" β
"It can be done that way." Xu Xuanming said, "But another item in the assessment is that the fewer tools you use, the higher the score, you can choose tools that you don't use at all, but you also have to grasp the degree." What's more, you can't guarantee that you will definitely take away the materials you don't need. β
"Isn't that pure luck?" Qian Guokai muttered, "It's not fair at all." β
"There is no such thing as a purely fair game." Xu Xuanming said, "The third competition is to test the ability to adapt to changes, which is very important for cultural relics restoration workers. β
"It's too difficult to take three exams in practice." Yu Gan lay on the table, weak.
"Actually......" Xu Xuanming coughed twice, "Actually, I and other professors speculate that because of the large number of exams this year, there should be a fourth exam." β
"What?!" At this time, everyone was shocked, including Lu Naqi, who had not spoken much.
"Because of the large number of applicants this year, it should be more difficult than ever to control the number of winners." Xu Xuanming said, "We have speculated on the recent policies in the past, and the exam questions should be from the innovation of cultural relics restoration. β
"Wouldn't that be harder!" Qian Guokai exclaimed, "Innovation can only be done by professors!" If we had innovative methods and methods, we would have used them to write essays a long time ago, and we still need to take this exam! β
For a moment, several people looked at each other, and it was obvious that they had some objections to this competition.
Xu Xuanming waved his hand to calm down a few people: "It shouldn't be that you will be asked to make some innovative techniques and operations on the spot, and it is more likely that you will be able to repair from two aspects: traditional ancient methods and innovative thinking." β
"Practical application?" Chu Luohua asked, "Does that mean that there is a high probability that the same cultural relic requires two different restoration methods?" β
βBingoοΌβ Xu Xuanming snapped his fingers, "Professor Mo Wen and I guess so." But it's up to you to improvise the exact schedule. β
"Shake off the shopkeeper." Yu Gan muttered.
Xu Xuanming rubbed his head: "You are only eighteen years old, it's good to be able to come in for the exam, don't think about the ranking!" β
"I didn't expect to be forced to enter such a dangerous exam at such a young age!" Yu Gan pretended to cry, "My grandfather doesn't feel sorry for me." β
"If Mr. Yu didn't feel sorry for you, he wouldn't let you learn the gold inlay craft so early, and also teach you the exclusive craft."
As soon as these words came out, the pupils of other people were all for a while, they only thought that Yu Gan was a student of a certain professor, but listening to Professor Xu's meaning, this Yu Gan is the personal biography of a certain folk restoration master?!
Lu Naqi and Qian Guokai exchanged a look, this kind of blessed children all came to participate in the competition, can they compare?
What's more, he is the inheritor of traditional crafts, even if he does not achieve satisfactory results in examinations, the Cultural Affairs Bureau will give priority to admission, and will not disgrace his master.
"Hey, I'm just here to see the fun." Yu Gandao, "There are so many senior brothers and sisters, and old professors, it's good that I can pass the written exam." β
"I'm going to take the rankings this time." Chu Luohua looked serious, "Fengjing University promised that if I could win the ranking on behalf of Fengjing University, I would give me the research before Lin Xuedi's death." β
"Huh? Are you here to compete just for that?! Xu Xuanming was a little surprised.
"Hmm." Chu Luohua nodded, "I've thought about it, since Lin Xuedi is dead, then if I can complete his research, I can prove that I am better than him!" β
Xu Xuanming was speechless for a while, it seemed that Chu Luohua was competing with Lin Xuedi, who had passed away.
He sighed in his heart: If Chu Luohua gets a good ranking, it would be best to untie the knot, if not, I'm afraid that this girl doesn't know what to do.
