Because of what Jian Ci said during lunch break, everyone in the team felt a little embarrassed.
There was no way. Even if Jian Ci abandoned her status as a rich lady and was just Professor Xu's closed disciple, they could not afford to offend her.
Although they did not see where this person's talent lay, they could not afford to offend her as long as Xu Jiang acknowledged her as his last disciple.
At least that's what it looks like on the surface.
Therefore, they planned to be more restrained in their attitude towards Jian Ci in the next two days.
But what they didn't expect was that Jian Ci simply took leave for the next two days.
Because she felt that the exchange meeting was too boring, she simply took a leave and went to Qin Shizheng to discuss with him the layout and various backup plans for the day of the auction.
But who would have thought that after only staying for a day and a half, Xu Jiang suddenly called her on the afternoon of the third day.
"Where are you now?" His tone was hurried and he seemed a little anxious.
Jian Ci was a little confused and said, "I'm in the hotel."
Sure enough, Xu Jiang said anxiously, "Come here right now. There's a calligraphy that needs you to identify."
In response to this, Jian Ci couldn't help but be curious, "What word?"
What kind of characters could make Xu Jiang so impatient that he wanted to go to the scene in person to identify them?
Xu Jiang was silent for a moment, then said, "Cursive Thousand Character Essay."
When Jian Ci heard the calligraphy, her delicate eyebrows raised slightly, "I'll be there right away."
After hanging up the phone, Qin Shizheng, who was sitting next to him, asked, "What's wrong?"
Jian Ci put away her phone and said playfully, "Xu Jiang asked me to come over and appraise a piece of calligraphy and painting."
When Qin Shizheng heard this, he immediately said, "Then I'll take you there."
"good."
After the two of them tidied up briefly, they went downstairs to the exchange meeting.
When they arrived at the destination, just before getting out of the car, Qin Shizheng said in a low and gentle voice: "I'll wait for you in the car."
"Um."
Jian Ci nodded, got out of the car and walked quickly towards the exchange meeting.
As I went upstairs, before I even pushed the door open, I heard a loud noise coming from inside.
"This calligraphy must be fake, it's clearly a rubbing!"
"That's right. The regular script portion of the Thousand Character Classic has wider spacing between characters, making it more open and sparse. The cursive script portion, on the other hand, has closer spacing between characters. Unlike this one, which is all crooked and crammed together, it's completely wrong!"
"Not only that, but the characters in this calligraphy are dull and scattered, not at all as lively and free-flowing as the original."
…
The students from Kyoto University argued their case one by one and denied everything.
The representative from Country R, who had produced the painting, said with disdain and sarcasm, "Classmates, this calligraphy piece has long been a national treasure. You haven't even seen the original, so how can you possibly judge its so-called dynamic, tight, lean, and elegant nature?"
Such irony made Lu Yizhou, as an appraiser, clench his fist and say, "This is our stuff, of course we can recognize it!"
The other party sneered, "Your stuff? If it's yours, how could it have fallen into the hands of our countrymen?"
Someone in the team couldn't help but snort, "That's just despicable of you!"
However, the result made the R-party representative feel proud. "How can you say it's shameless? It can only be said that you are useless."
These words made everyone present look unhappy.
Even the organizers looked a little gloomy.
After all, they knew very well how the R people got these calligraphy and paintings.
Just as the atmosphere was about to reach freezing point, the door to the exchange meeting was suddenly pushed open.
Because of this sound, everyone in the originally quiet place unconsciously looked towards the door.
When the people from Kyoto University saw Jian Ci, who had taken two days off, inexplicably appear here, they had a bad feeling.
Why is this guy here instead of sleeping in the hotel?
At this moment, if she said something wrong, wouldn't she be laughed at?
Jian Ci paid no attention to the anxious looks of those people. She walked straight through the crowd, walked up to Xu Jiang, and asked, "What's going on?"
Xu Jiang frowned and said seriously, "Come and take a look at this calligraphy. Is it real or fake?"
Jian Ci glanced at it and said calmly, "It's fake."
The expressions of the people behind her softened somewhat when they heard her words.
Fortunately, this person did not let down at the critical moment.
If what they said was true, they would completely lose face.
The R country representative, who was originally amazed by Jian Ci's face, began to disagree, "Little classmate, how can you say it's fake just by looking at it?"
Jian Ci raised her eyelids and smiled casually, "Do you want to know?"
The other party nodded, "Of course."
After receiving a positive answer, Jian Ci looked around and finally fixed her eyes on a bottle of mineral water in the corner.
No one around her understood what she was doing.
Don't you want to explain?
Why did you go drink water for no reason?
But when Jian Ci picked up the bottle of water, she did something that shocked everyone.
That is, pour the spring water directly on the words.
This time, everyone was shocked!!!
