    The first person to come to the "World Architecture Arena" to challenge was none other than the Belgian architectural master Theo Jescott, who once presented a problem in the "International Architectural Masters Invitational Competition" and tried to stump the fat man.

    Theo Jescott once bet 10 million US dollars with Fatty in the "International Architectural Masters Invitational Competition" jointly organized by the International Association of Architects and the famous American architectural magazine "Building Dreams".  He asked two questions that he thought it would be difficult for others to give the correct answers, but the fat man answered them both.

    The first question asked by Theo Jescott at that time was about an office building he had recently designed for the Belgian government. On the back of the building, there were specially designed small oval-shaped decorative windows. There are a total of such small decorative windows.  several?

    At that time, architects from all over the world felt that this kind of question was a bit difficult. Except for the architect himself, it was difficult for others to give correct answers to such questions.  Theo Yescott thought that the fat man would definitely not be able to answer.  Except for the building's architect himself, no one would notice the number of small decorative windows on the back of the building.

    Who would have known that the fat man opened his mouth and said the answer. The answer given by the fat man was 106. Then the big computer screen displayed the standard answer. Sure enough, it was 106. This number was particularly dazzling when displayed on the big screen. Theo.  Scott thinks this is impossible, there must be something fishy in it!

    When Theo Yescott felt incredible, he made a bet of 10 million US dollars with the fat man. On the spot, he asked a test question that he thought the fat man could not know the answer to. Theo Yescott's question seemed to be very simple.  In fact, it's too deceptive.  The question he asked was, how many floors had the Brussels TV Tower, which was designed and under construction by the person in charge, been built that day?  He also explained that after the fat man finished answering, he passed the 'Global Eye' verification on the spot, because that location happened to be within the monitoring range of the 'Global Eye', and the specific situation could be seen at a glance.

    How did Theo Yescott know that Fatty had such a cheating weapon as the e-book girl? What he didn¡¯t expect was that after hearing this question, Fatty didn¡¯t feel the slightest bit nervous at all.  When he calmly answered that the TV tower would be built to the 46th floor that day, Theo Yescott even laughed at the fat man for his wrong answer.  Because according to the plan it formulated.  The building should have been built to the 47th floor that day.  What Theo Yescott never expected was that there was a heavy rainstorm at that time, and the construction progress of the building stopped at the 46th floor that day.

    As a result, Theo Yescott lost 10 million US dollars and was so angry that he vomited blood and fainted on the spot.  This time Wan'er set out on the "World Architecture Arena", he naturally understood that behind Wan'er was Fatty.  How could he let go of this opportunity for revenge?  then.  He couldn't wait to jump out.  Want to avenge previous shame.

    Theo Jescott came prepared for this challenge. He carefully prepared many architectural problems and relied on his years of experience and accumulation in architectural design.  No matter what, it's not worse than a wet baby, right?

    The rules of the so-called "World Architecture Arena" are quite open, allowing challengers to come up with questions, as long as they are related to architecture.  The premise is that the question maker must have a standard answer, and the standard answer can be recognized.

    The questions Theo Jescott brought this time are also seemingly simple, but are actually the most deceptive questions.  The question he asked was quite strange. He asked Wan'er how much steel was used in the Brussels TV Tower project that he designed and has now completed.

    Even if Wan'er searched on Google or the Internet for this difficult question posed by Theo Jescott, she still couldn't find the correct answer.  Unless designers and construction personnel have some idea of ??the amount of steel used in a project, others have no way of knowing.

    The ratio of the amount of steel used is different for each project, and for the same project, different structural engineers design and calculate the amount of steel used differently.  Because Theo Jescott is an architect, although he did not personally design or calculate the amount of steel used in the Brussels TV Tower project, he is well aware of this data. It is indeed appropriate to use this to study Wan'er.  Comply with the rules and requirements of the "World Architecture Arena".

    When Theo Yescott asked this question in front of many news media and live audiences under the live broadcast of many TV stations, there was an uproar.  Many people at the scene immediately took out their mobile phones and tablets to search for answers. As you can imagine, there was no way to find the answer.  But for the sake of fairness, Theo Yescott wrote this data in advance to two special commentators, Master Aldrich, the president of the International Institute of Architects, and Ms. Jotti, the architecture critic of the American "Washington Post"  , and passed their verification.

    " If Fatty hadn't instilled in Wan'er the memory molecule carefully crafted by the e-book girl, the question asked by Theo Yescott would have stumped Wan'er.  No matter how hard Wan'er studied various architecture-related books, she could not pay attention to the amount of steel used in the Brussels TV Tower project.

    ButBut Zizi was different. When he asked the e-book girl to use memory molecules to instill architectural-related knowledge into Wan'er, he paid special attention to many details, especially the data related to many famous buildings in the world. He had the e-book girl stuff it into the memory molecules.  .  Although the amount of steel used in the Brussels TV Tower project cannot be searched on the contemporary Internet, the omnipotent Internet of later generations can even search how many steel bars were used in the project. The answer to the amount of steel used naturally exists in Wan'er's  in my mind.

    " Wan'er has always given the impression that she is generous, smart, and extremely cute, but few people know that she also has a devilish side, and she also likes to tease others from time to time.

    So when she got the question from Theo Yescott, Wan'er had a deliberately embarrassed expression on her face.  This made Theo Yescott proud for a short time.

    The "World Architecture Arena" organized by the Gezi Group this time is extremely expensive. Not only are all the representatives of the news media who serve as judges receive big red envelopes, but also thousands of well-known celebrities from all walks of life specially invited by Mr. Gezi to come to the scene to observe.  People also received valuable gifts.  Any master architect who comes to challenge will receive a reward of 10 million US dollars on the spot if he succeeds in the challenge. Even if he fails, he will still receive a large appearance fee.

    When people at the scene couldn't find the answer to Theo Yescott's problem using various electronic products, they couldn't help but start talking about it, and everyone was sweating for Wan'er.

    No matter from all aspects, the balance in the minds of almost everyone at the scene or watching the live broadcast in front of the TV is tilted towards Wan'er.  When they saw the embarrassment on Wan'er's face after receiving the question from Theo Yescott, they let out a sigh.

    Theo Yescott saw that Wan'er couldn't give an answer for a long time, and the expression on her face was obviously embarrassed, so he said proudly:

    "Miss Wan'er, how are you? You can't answer, can you? In fact, you shouldn't have waded into this muddy water and crossed the boundary to set up the 'World Architecture Arena'. You are certainly smart, but you don't know how high the sky is. This field is not  For a child like you to play, you should just be your movie star. A movie you star in is enough for a master architect to earn for many years of hard work, so you should be satisfied."

    Wan'er slowly shook her head and said: "Mr. Theo Yescott, you are wrong. It's not that I can't answer the questions you asked, but I feel that it would be too difficult for me to answer the difficult questions you asked easily.  It¡¯s easier on you.¡±

    When Theo Yescott heard what Wan'er said, his eyes widened and he said, "Miss Wan'er, what do you mean by this? Why are you taking advantage of me?"

    A slight smile appeared on Wan'er's face, and she said to Theo Yescott: "Think about it, you tried your best to test me with such a difficult problem, but I can't tell you the answer, and you lost 10 million."  US dollars, if I tell you the answer, you will still get a hefty reward. You will make money anyway and will not suffer any losses. However, whether I answer your question or not, my income has been fixed, so I have no intention of answering your question.  What passion is there?¡±

    "Hehe." Theo Yescott couldn't help but sneered when he heard Wan'er's words. He said coldly: "Does Miss Wan'er also want to add a little more bet?"

    A smile like a blooming flower suddenly appeared on Wan'er's face. She nodded repeatedly and said, "That's exactly what I meant!"

    Theo Yescott also smiled, and he said to Wan'er: "I know you are a little rich girl, my money is far less than yours, and the money I have worked hard to save for many years was lost to that fat man last time.  After winning everything, I can¡¯t afford too much money. The most I can afford is 5 million US dollars. If you want to bet with me, you have to come up with at least 20 million US dollars before I agree.¡±

    As soon as Theo Yescott spoke, the scene was in an uproar again. Almost everyone was a little separated, and they all accused Theo Yescott of being too shameless and even wanting to bet with a child at an unfair price.  .

    What no one expected was that Wan'er agreed to Theo Yescott's conditions without hesitation. She said to Theo Yescott:

    "Mr. Theo Yescott, as long as you come up with 5 million US dollars, I am willing to put up 20 million US dollars as a bet between the two of us, but I have to add another requirement."

    The confident Theo Yescott said to Wan'er with a smile on his face: "If you want Miss Wan'er to be willing to spend 20 million US dollars, as long as I can fulfill your request, I will naturally agree."

    "Okay!" Wan'er stared into Theo Yescott's eyes and said, "I hope your bet will include the gift you should get if you fail this time."

    "Haha." Theo Yescott seemed to be amused. He pointed at Wan'er and said: "Miss Wan'er, you are so funny. Why not? But I can't get that thing, and neither can you."  You will get it!" (To be continued)
