The teacher hosting the event spotted Liu Yihang, this troublemaker, at first glance.
"Liu Yihang, why don't you come up and demonstrate first?"
Liu Yihang stood up without hesitation, took his timer, and went upstairs.
He first kept everyone in suspense: "Let me keep you in suspense for a moment, and everyone can guess what this is."
Many classmates teased, "Is this a pen holder?"
"A flower vase?"
"neither fish nor fowl!"
Liu Yihang shook his head: "None of them are right. This thing is a timer!"
It successfully piqued the interest of everyone in the audience.
He then began to recount his story in detail, first describing the specifics of the object with numerous classical references, and then detailing his experience of finding the timer by chance.
The audience listened with great interest.
That's roughly what happened.
The students in the audience, along with the judges, applauded for a long time.
Putting aside whether his stuff is real or not, his confident and poised manner of speaking is not how a freshman should behave; rather, it sets a good example for all the students.
As he recounted the story, the timer was given to Master Li to authenticate.
Master Li is here today to quickly determine the authenticity of the antiques.
In the entire archaeology department, very few people can determine the authenticity of an antique in a short period of time and cite relevant historical records to explain its origin. Master Li is one of the best among them.
Therefore, his role is to provide a safety net.
After Liu Yihang finished speaking, his judgment was also made.
"I believe Liu's timer is genuine."
His account was very comprehensive and without any problems; I have nothing to add.
However, I must commend him here, because it is very difficult to identify this shape. If he came to this conclusion on his own, then his knowledge is already quite extensive,” Master Li said.
Applause erupted again from the audience.
He truly lives up to his reputation as a genius who dared to fly a plane after only learning a little bit; he never disappoints.
The judges then began to score, and all six gave a perfect score of 10.
"Liu Yihang's final score is ten points."
Liu Yihang bowed and was about to leave when Master Li suddenly called out to him: "Yihang, are you confident enough to be an appraiser? Your performance just now was excellent!"
Liu Yihang thought about it and realized it wasn't a big deal. He was confident that he could answer any of the questions the students in the audience could find.
"sure!"
"Alright, could you please get him a chair so he can sit next to me?" Master Li said to the person next to him.
So Liu Yihang transformed into the appraiser for this exhibition. With Master Li backing him up, no one said anything.
The students were incredibly envious; being directly called upon by a top student is an opportunity that not everyone gets.
"Hello everyone, I'm showing you a jade bowl from the Qianlong era..."
Liu Yihang never expected that the second student to come up would be a sucker who sold the Qianlong jade bowl, and he had no idea how much tuition he had paid.
The teacher in charge placed the jade bowl in front of him, his face showing a hint of something he wanted to say but hesitated.
Liu Yihang glanced at it briefly and then put it down.
Master Li merely glanced at it from the side and then looked away.
After this student finished speaking, the pressure was on Liu Yihang. The students and judges below the stage all looked at him, expecting his answer.
Actually, these judges didn't quite believe he was up to the task, but they didn't dare say anything out of respect for Master Li.
"My judgment is that it's fake." Liu Yihang gave his answer first, and the students on the stage immediately turned red.
The tall, nervous guy in the audience thought to himself, "Luckily I met Liu Yihang, otherwise I would be the one who lost face."
Liu Yihang then explained in detail why he judged it to be fake, providing reasons from various perspectives. His explanation convinced the audience, and Master Li nodded with satisfaction.
The judges gave this student an average score of six.
This exhibition doesn't only award high scores for genuine antiques, nor does it judge based solely on authenticity. Instead, it evaluates all aspects. Regardless of authenticity, as long as your description is satisfactory and well-reasoned, it will be considered good.
Then, the large classroom became Liu Yihang's domain.
Basically, as soon as he gets a piece of information, he can quickly draw a conclusion and summarize the reasons for that conclusion in very concise and professional terms, making people completely convinced.
Even the judges who thought he wasn't good enough smiled.
Master Li was even more impressed with him.
He watched Liu Yihang grow up. When he first met Liu Yihang, he was just a naive young man who got lucky and stumbled upon a good opportunity.
A scholar should be viewed with new eyes after three days of separation.
Only one semester has passed, and Liu Yihang has already become a seasoned expert, quoting classics and speaking eloquently.
When it comes to collecting antiques, both talent and hard work are indispensable.
Master Li was unaware that he had a copying card and could directly copy the data.
However, he has indeed read a lot of Master Li's notes recently and benefited greatly from them.
The assignment demonstration lasted for two days, and Liu Yihang followed the entire evaluation process.
Throughout the entire process, Master Li never refuted any of his conclusions, and even jokingly said that with Liu Yihang around, there was no need for him.
Because Liu Yihang's explanation was very comprehensive and his summary was very accurate, there's basically nothing to add.
The judges went from disbelief to trembling with fear. What an amazing person! Even their knowledge base couldn't match his ability to speak so eloquently.
The layman sees the spectacle, but the expert sees the essence. The group of teachers seemed to see a rising star; this young man has unlimited potential.
Because of this remarkable achievement, Master Li took the opportunity to help, directly applying to the Academic Affairs Office to make an exception and allow Liu Yihang to take the graduation exams for all subjects ahead of time, complete his credits ahead of schedule, obtain his undergraduate degree, and directly take the postgraduate entrance exam next year.
There are very few graduate students nowadays; as long as you have a professor's recommendation, you're basically set.
This means that Liu Yihang will become a graduate student next year.
Liu Yihang never expected that he could graduate directly just by accidentally showing off, even though he had only just started university this year.
However, this suited him perfectly, saving him three years and allowing him to do more meaningful things.
Liu Yihang threw himself into the intense exams, with all sorts of tests, big and small, from freshman to junior year courses. He took them all, which left him completely bewildered.
Because there are just too many.
But the thought of being able to apply for early graduation after the exams gave me a full boost of energy.
As soon as Liu Yihang finished his last exam and turned on his phone, his phone was bombarded with calls.
It was the osmanthus that opened.
She said that Ge Cuihua and Liu Dahai had arrived.
