Chapter 249 Live Broadcast Camera
"Gentlemen, isn't it time to stop this farce?"
As Jiang Qingyang blew on the steam rising from the water glass, he said something indifferently.
"It's time to stop."
Lu Jixiao nodded, and Yin Zhixun, who was standing next to him, echoed him.
Surprisingly, Master Hongyuan, who had remained silent throughout, also chimed in, saying, "It's getting late; it's time to start the competition."
Lin Rui returned to the judges' table on his own. At this moment, no one in the audience dared to question his abilities in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Many celebrities even had their eyes sparkling, clearly thinking of befriending him.
"As a celebrity, you still have to keep working hard."
Zhang Chengzhang patted Zhao Wenyao on the shoulder earnestly.
This time, Zhao Wenyao unusually didn't show any anger.
Frankly speaking, Lin Rui's solid skills in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting are so impressive that, not to mention him, few of the celebrities in this room would dare to even think of competing with him.
Looking at Lin Rui, who possessed such profound knowledge at such a young age, Zhao Wenyao couldn't help but sigh. He wasn't unfamiliar with prodigies; in Nanzhou, he was also an absolute prodigy.
But when Lin Rui became a prodigy, Zhao Wenyao felt that he was just an ordinary person and not worthy of being called a prodigy at all.
Lin Rui is proficient in all the arts, including music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and prose. He is exceptionally skilled in all of them, which is truly astounding. He is only twenty years old. How did he accumulate such a wealth of knowledge?
Compared to Zhao Wenyao's感慨 and confusion, the others at the scene were filled with curiosity about Lin Rui, and many celebrities even became excited.
Nothing else.
It was all because Lin Rui made Cangquan Zuoyi suffer a setback and made Master Hongyuan submit!
Let's not even talk about Cangquan Zoe; she's just a puppet pushed into the open by the Floating Island Conglomerate, and she's done a lot of evil deeds on a daily basis.
As for the capital behind this guy, they've been stirring up trouble in Lizhou and Sangzhou lately.
Among the celebrities present, almost none of those who hadn't been turned against her had a favorable impression of Cangquan Zuoyi and the tycoon behind her.
As for Master Hongyuan, don't be fooled by his appearance as an enlightened monk; he's just a smooth talker for naive young people who haven't been hardened by society.
Since Master Hongyuan has been invited to be a judge in this competition, it's obvious to anyone with a brain that he was put in this position by the major financial groups of the floating island, and their intentions are self-evident.
As for these seemingly harmless words and actions, they are nothing more than wearing a more sophisticated mask of hypocrisy.
Leaving aside distant examples, the monk who just tried to give Cangquan Zuoyi some pointers—could he have no connection with Master Hongyuan?
Who knows, that monk might be a disciple of Master Hongyuan!
Of course, seeing through something is one thing, but whether to point it out is another.
At least the guests present remained rational and waited to see how things would develop.
"In fact, playing chess is a contest of ability and mentality between players, and judges play almost no role."
Lu Jixiao smiled and lowered his voice, saying, "However, being able to take a hit on Cangquan Zoe's confidence is not a bad thing for the Shenzhou players in his group."
Lin Rui didn't think as far ahead as Lü Jixiao. Wasn't Cangquan Zuoyi just now constantly asking for guidance?
Lin Rui did this simply because he wanted something and he would give it to him.
"We don't need to worry about the chess games. The time taken for a game can vary, so let the players do their best. We only need to focus on the last three games."
Two semi-final matches.
A final match.
"The Lizhou Arts Association has sent a professional live streaming team to simultaneously broadcast the events in the four major regions."
