Although there is no need to ask this question normally, after all, some people rely on guessing to answer multiple-choice questions. If you can't explain the reason, you will definitely be laughed at by others.

But this host was invited by the Du family, so it is understandable that he deliberately made things difficult.

He probably knew that Dai Zhengshan was not strong enough and might have made a blind choice, so he made things difficult for Dai Zhengshan in order to please Du Yuan.

Dai Zhengshan pursed his lips reluctantly, then pointed at the correct answer he believed and said:

"Only the base behind that bronze mirror has no cracks, while the others have, so I guess that one is the real one."

"Oh?" The host expressed surprise and asked the staff to turn the glass cabinet around.

Sure enough, just as he said, only the mirror with the auspicious dragon and phoenix had no cracks, while the other mirrors with the auspicious dragon and phoenix had cracks.

But the crack is very small, less than one centimeter, so it cannot be seen unless you look carefully.

"That's amazing! It looks like the Dai family is quite capable!"

"You can see such a small crack. You have very good eyesight!"

…

Everyone around admired Dai Zhengshan, and after hearing this, Dai Zhengshan raised his head, feeling proud and enjoying the praise from others very much.

"It made me break into a cold sweat. It seems that he is not incompetent!"

Xiaoxiang, like everyone else, believed it was true and was even relieved, thinking that Dai Zhengshan had won.

But Lin Han always had a serious and worried look on his face.

Because he knew which one was correct, and Dai Zhengshan’s answer... was wrong!

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Dai Furong keenly noticed that something was wrong with Lin Han and couldn't help but ask.

"Your father is wrong, that mirror with dragon and phoenix is ​​fake!" Lin Han sighed.

"Huh? How could it be fake? The dragon and phoenix mirror is intact!"

Xiaoxiang, who was standing by, questioned what he said. A genuine product wouldn't have any flaws, right?

"Just because it's intact, it means it's fake, and the most obvious fake!"

"Ah? What do you mean?" Xiaoxiang became more and more confused the more he listened.

At this time, Zhang Xiaofeng also saw the problem and explained:

"The craftsmanship in the past was not sophisticated, so some things would be damaged after they were made, or they might be worn out during storage and use. So not everything that is intact is necessarily authentic!"

"Many things have been damaged in history. If you want to replicate them, you have to replicate the damaged parts as well. Otherwise, people who study them will be able to tell at a glance that they are fake."

"So..." Xiaoxiang frowned after hearing this, and swallowed as he looked at the intact dragon and phoenix mirror on the stage.

"So that thing was copied by someone who didn't even have this much knowledge?"

"That's why I said it was the most obvious fake." Lin Han continued her words at this time.

Only one of them is intact, while the other four have cracks.

But Dai Zhengshan obviously didn't realize why the other four had cracks but that one didn't.

If you judge that all others are fakes based on the cracks, then this question would be too easy.

The only possibility is that the authentic product itself also has cracks, so the counterfeit made by others naturally also has cracks.

And the intact fake was definitely put there intentionally to confuse people.

But it can only be used to confuse those who don't know the ins and outs, which shows that Dai Zhengshan is still not good enough.

It was indeed ill-considered to let him play.

"Hahaha!" At this moment, Du Yuan on the stage couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Because so much time has passed, Dai Zhengshan still hasn't discovered his mistake and is still complacent.

This made him feel that it was a waste of his talent to compete with Dai Zhengshan.

Dai Zhengshan can't be compared with him at all!

"What are you laughing at?" Dai Zhengshan heard his laughter and finally looked over.

"I laughed at you like a fool. You were so wrong, but you didn't realize it. The Dai family has not been destroyed for so many years. Is it luck?"

Du Yuan raised the corner of his mouth and curled his lips in disdain.

"What did I do wrong?" Dai Zhengshan still hadn't found the problem.

"Before I reveal the answer, let me tell you a historical story!"

Du Yuan put his hands behind his back, coughed twice, and then spoke after sorting out his thoughts.

"After Qin Shi Huang unified the world and became the emperor, Prime Minister Li Si used Lantian jade to make the imperial seal. In the late Western Han Dynasty, Wang Mang, a relative of the emperor, usurped power and demanded the seal. The queen mother angrily scolded Wang Mang and threw the seal to the ground, breaking one corner. Later, Wang Mang ordered the craftsmen to repair it with gold."

"Tell me, is this imperial seal with a corner broken off and patched with gold a fake or the real thing? Just because it's not intact, is it a fake?"

“…”

When Dai Zhengshan heard Du Yuan's story, his face had turned very ugly.

Because he understood what Du Yuan meant, and realized how wrong he was.

I believe everyone present understood what Du Yuan meant.

A fake product does not necessarily have flaws, and a genuine product does not necessarily have no flaws!

If the genuine product has defects, then a qualified counterfeit should also imitate the defects. If it cannot imitate the defects, it can only be said to be shoddy garbage, not even worthy of the word counterfeit!

Realizing that he had made a basic mistake and chosen the most obvious fake, Dai Zhengshan could only lower his head and answer Du Yuan's questions in silence.

Du Yuan was even more disdainful upon seeing this. He snorted coldly and explained why he chose the fourth one from the left.

"The phoenix head on the back of the dragon and phoenix mirror is higher than the dragon head. This is because this thing is a product of the Western Zhou Dynasty. The dragon has not always been in the highest position in history. In the Western Zhou Dynasty, the phoenix had a higher status than the dragon."

Hearing Du Yuan's words, the three referees, including Yueying, nodded.

Many people who have not studied it in depth must think that the dragon has represented the emperor since ancient times and that the dragon is the most respected.

But in fact, this is not the case. The Western Zhou Dynasty used the phoenix as its totem, and The Investiture of the Gods tied Ji Chang and the phoenix together.

If this auspicious mirror with dragon and phoenix is ​​a product of the Western Zhou Dynasty, then it is indeed impossible for the dragon to be superior to the phoenix.

Many people, including the host, looked like they had benefited a lot after hearing Du Yuan's explanation.

"I'm so grateful for this knowledge. Now, please let the judges announce the correct answer!"

Yueying, Wang Qiankun and Zhang Shaojun did not discuss for long because the answer was obvious.

Finally, Wang Qiankun announced the correct answer. He stood up, took the microphone from the host, and solemnly announced:

"The correct answer is the fourth one from the left, so Du Yuan wins!"

"Alas~" Dai Zhengshan sighed with a heavy heart.

Although he knew he lost before the correct answer was revealed, he still felt uncomfortable when he actually heard it.
