Yan Ning: "The greeting has been made. Mr. John, please take your female companion and take a seat!"
Seeing that Yan Ning was so disrespectful, John immediately put on a stern face and took his female companion to sit in the guest area on the other side.
Yan Ning looked around and found that the seats in the venue were almost full.
Suddenly, a few more exclamations were heard nearby.
"Oh my god... that's the star Lucia, look, look..."
"It's really Lucia, she's so beautiful..."
Who is Lucia?
Yan Ning turned around to look at the people who were talking, and followed their gaze to look at Lucia.
It turned out to be a French female star.
Yan Ning took a look and then looked away.
At this time, people began to take their seats in the judges' seats at the front of the stage.
Yan Ning's eyes swept across the judges' seats and paused for a moment on the sign placed on the judges' table.
The sign is in two languages, French on top and English on the bottom.
The sign on the table in the middle of the judges' seats read "Chairman of the Jury" and the name below it was: Bernard.
Yan Ning raised his eyebrows slightly. This Master Bernard was actually the chairman of the jury this time.
After a while, more and more people came into the venue and the seats were basically full.
Yan Ning kept his eyes on the judges' seats, and after a few minutes he saw a French man in his thirties or forties sitting at the middle table.
It turned out that he was Bernard. He was wearing a hat and sunglasses at the jewelry exhibition before, so Yan Ning didn't see his appearance.
At this moment, the lights in the audience suddenly dimmed, and then the lights on the stage lit up.
The chatter in the audience suddenly quieted down.
A male and a female host came on stage to host the award ceremony.
The male host spoke French and the female host spoke English.
The two hosts first gave an opening speech, and then began to introduce the details of the jewelry design competition.
There were more than 400 entries in this jewelry competition, but only 40 were shortlisted.
Today, eight judges will score forty works on site and select the top six works with the highest average scores.
There is one first prize, two second prizes and three third prizes.
After the final selection, the winning works will be auctioned on site by the organizer.
The remaining unsuccessful works will be displayed in the jewelry display area next door, and all guests present can go there to choose their favorite works.
At the end, the host said that in order to ensure the fairness of this competition, only the work numbers will be displayed when the shortlisted works are selected and scored, and the names of the designers will not appear.
After a few minutes, the number one shortlisted work appeared on the big screen on the stage.
This piece is a necklace with a retro design and a unique style.
The photos are all taken by senior photographers with superb lighting skills, showing the perfect effect of the jewelry.
The eight judges on the jury discussed it and quickly gave their own scores.
The lowest score for the first work was 7.6 points, the highest score was 8.9 points, and the average score was 8.2 points.
Yan Ning was secretly surprised. It seemed that these judges were really harsh.
The works were displayed one by one, and Yan Ning silently watched the designs of these works. This was a rare learning opportunity.
More than an hour passed by unknowingly.
Only half of the shortlisted works have been shown, and the highest average score on the field is now nine points.
Yan Ning registered late, so his work should be ranked at the back.
Then seven or eight more works were displayed on the big screen. Yan Ning estimated that it would soon be her turn for her design.
The next second, the photo on the big screen changed again, showing Yan Ning's Nine-Colored Deer brooch.
As the photo appeared on the big screen, there were gasps and exclamations from all around.
Even Yan Ning himself was a little surprised when he saw the photo.
All I can say is that the senior photographer is worthy of the word senior, as he has magnified the perfection of this brooch infinitely.
The jade-white deer exudes colorful light, and the gold beads inlaid on its antlers emit a dazzling luster.
The dazzling feeling cannot be seen in the real object. The photos taken by the photographer after setting the lighting perfectly show the dazzling light of the various gems on the brooch, adding a touch of mysterious nobility to this nine-colored deer.
The Nine-Colored Deer in the photo is even closer to the legend of this auspicious beast of China.
Yan Ning looked towards the judges' table and saw that the eight judges were talking with their heads down.
She couldn't help but feel nervous, waiting for the final judges' scores.
The highest average score for the works on the field so far is 9.2 points.
There are only four works with a score above nine.
As long as her average score can reach above nine points, she will be able to enter the third prize range.
After a few minutes, the judges began to raise their cards and give scores.
The host announced the first judge's score: 9.5 points.
The first score appeared and there was a cry of surprise from the audience.
Then the second judge gave it a score of 9.5, followed by 9.2, 9.4, 9.5, 9.1, and 9.3.
Every time the host announced a score, there was an exclamation from the audience.
The last person to raise the sign to give a score was Master Bernard. The scene instantly became quiet and everyone looked towards the judges' seats.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Master Bernard slowly raised the scoreboard.
Yan Ning saw the score on the sign and breathed a sigh of relief. The heart that had risen to his throat finally slowly settled down.
The host raised the microphone and said, "Master Bernard gave this work the highest score of all the works on the stage so far - 9.8 points."
There was another burst of exclamation and uproar at the scene.
The host then continued, "Master Bernard, could you please tell us why you gave this work the highest score?"
Master Bernard picked up the microphone and said, "Because this is a work of art, it cannot be simply defined as a piece of jewelry.
This nine-color deer brooch is a diverse work of art. I have seen countless designs and countless works of art.
But so far, this is the first work I have seen that uses deer as an element in its design.
I am now very curious about the design concept of this work and the meaning of the name Nine-Colored Deer.
If I have the chance later, I will definitely meet the designer of this work and have a good discussion with him."
After Master Bernard finished speaking, he nodded and put down the microphone.
The host said a few polite words before announcing the average score of the work: 9.4 points.
This is the highest score among all the shortlisted works currently on the field.
Yan Ning's tense body finally relaxed. She had a feeling that her work would win first place with the highest score.
Discussions about the Nine-Colored Deer Brooch were heard all around, and Yan Ning listened quietly to these people's comments.
