Chapter 69 Phoenix Seeking Phoenix When everyone entered the venue, the spotlight in the center of the venue went out, and the light and shadow of the phoenix disappeared without a trace. Then a spotlight shone in the center of the venue, and an emcee holding a microphone walked over. Under the spotlight, he shouted with that strong male voice: "Good evening, everyone." After the warm applause, the emcee continued: "Are you still immersed in the poignant figure? Do you feel some kind of distant call? Then Let me tell you, you have come to the right place. This is a grand event of art and a paradise of sensibility! " "Pa bang bang" Under the emcee's rhetoric, everyone felt that they seemed to feel the light and shadow of the phoenix! The applause was even more enthusiastic. "I can tell you responsibly" the emcee said, making a neck-slitting motion, which meant that he held up his head to guarantee, "This bracelet is not a product of current technology, but an ancient relic. The age, place of origin, and even I have no way of knowing the author. Well, now Mr. Li Dongguo and his daughter, who donated this antique, will come on stage and tell everyone about the origin of this antique bracelet!" The emcee said, bowing to the audience, standing up and raising his hand. A man and a woman take the spotlight. "Oh" The scene was in an uproar. Who is Li Dongguo? The chairman of China Overseas Morningstar Group, his net worth ranks among the top 100 in the Forbes list every year, and he is a well-known rich man in China Overseas. "Everyone, this bracelet is from my daughter Li Wuwei's tenth birthday. I accidentally saw it in an antique store. I thought the style was very beautiful, so I bought it as a birthday gift for my daughter. Later, I worked in the Palace Museum for many years. An old friend of mine saw it and said that this bracelet is an ancient object whose age cannot be determined. Moreover, it is also an auspicious object that was blessed by an ancient hidden master. It is said that it can cure diseases and eliminate disasters" Li Dongguo's figure He was strong, wearing a pair of thin glasses, and spoke like a rich man. Wang Tianshi was immediately attracted to the woman next to him, Li Wuwei. This is a woman with a tall and sexy figure, but a delicate face. She is wearing a black evening dress, and her exposed skin is fairer than snow. Under the spotlight and the wealthy father beside her, Make her look radiant. "It's her" Wang Tianshi whispered in his heart. Although he couldn't see his face under the light curtain when the results were announced, even though she had put on an evening dress now, her figure and the resonance from her blood still made Wang Tianshi He recognized her - she was the suspected vampire he had lost with him in the evening! She was dressed so tightly during the day but so exposed at night, which made Wang Tianshi more and more interested in her. Is she a vampire with a wealthy daughter? Wang Tianshi secretly glanced at Xue Hongye beside him. She was still focusing on the bracelet on the edge of the spotlight. Amidst the continuous applause, Li Dongguo continued: "On the occasion of my daughter Li Wuwei's return from school, it coincides with the 25th anniversary of the establishment of CNOOC Haolong. After discussing with my daughter, I decided to donate this bracelet as a special prize to encourage CNOOC The oil painting creators will create better works, just like table tennis and badminton, let oil painting also become our Chinese traditional painting, and let foreigners bow to us!" "OkayOkay!" "Papa" The scene was filled with cheers and applause. "Finally, let me reveal a secret. The final winner will have the opportunity to have dinner with my daughter. By the way, my daughter Li Wuwei also studies oil painting and will compete with you on this venue later. So, Come on, all the players present, don¡¯t let our bracelets fail to be delivered!¡± ¡°Haha¡± Amidst the laughter, Li Dongguo led Li Wuwei out of the spotlight, and the atmosphere of the scene was entered in advance by Li Dongguo¡¯s words* *, a valuable antique bracelet, and a date with a beautiful woman worth tens of billions. This is a true treasure and a beautiful woman at the same time. Many male contestants are already excited and gearing up. But someone was anxious. Xue Suwen pulled Wang Tianshi, "You must be the first, but you are not allowed to go on a date with Li Wuwei!" "What if someone forces me to go?" Wang Tianshi spread his hands pretending to be confused. "He dares, he dares to force you, I I will tell him who my father is!" Xue Suwen clenched her fists, with more murderous intent than her sister. "Why don't you call your dad and just snatch the broken bracelet back!" Wang Tianshi followed the provocative general and said. He didn't mind at all that Xue Suwen's father used his public power for private purposes and snatched the bracelet back. Anyway, he got the ancient painting and it was settled. No matter what, they won't be returned. "I" Xue Suwen held back a word and immediately pulled Xue Hongye, "Sister, look at him bullying me!" "Get the bracelet for me, I owe you a favor!" Xue Hongye looked at Wang Tianshi. Still strong and sharp, as if begging for help.??. "You still owe me a life!" Wang Tianshi muttered in his heart. After a while, the lights on the competition venue below were bright, and the on-site staff moved easels and oil painting supplies into the venue in an orderly manner. To show fairness, all competition equipment is provided by the organizer. After the competition equipment was placed, the emcee announced loudly on the podium: "The contestants for the main competition are invited to enter. Please take your seats according to the serial number!" Amid warm applause, the two hundred contestants participating in the main competition got off the stand. Make your way to the middle playing field. "Come on! Come on!" Xue Suwen specially pulled Wang Tianshi to cheer him up, and threatened: "If you dare not be first, I I will let my dad put you in jail!" "What kind of world do you have!" Wang Tianshi cursed in his heart, and as people flowed into the venue, he looked at the sign in his hand that he received after the preliminary test results were announced, No. 97! In other words, his score in the first test was 97th. After finding his seat, he stood still and looked at the first person. It was Fu Longbo. The second person next to him was wearing a black evening dress. Li Wuwei. At this moment, Fu Longbo also happened to look over. When he saw Wang Tianshi's serial number in high spirits, he showed a look of disdain on his face, and raised his hand to shoot Wang Tianshi. Wang Tianshi looked at the rostrum. The high-ranking Yao Yujiao was still wearing the blue dress and the ruby ??necklace. She had worked hard all day, and her cold and slightly tired face faced Wang Tianshi's eyes. There was a smile in his eyes, and he made a cheering gesture with his fists. "Attention, contestants!" In order to ease the tense atmosphere, the emcee changed to a gentle female voice, "Unlike previous years of free painting, this year will be a theme painting. The theme is the bracelet you saw when you entered the venue. Please The contestants used their memory and imagination to draw your works today! " "Ah" everyone in the competition hall exclaimed. You must know that the competition organizer¡¯s painting proposition caught almost all the contestants off guard. Compared with free painting in previous years, many contestants drew the works they wanted to participate in many times before participating, striving to achieve the best results in the main competition. Good results, and now this topic of painting has undoubtedly made many people's preparations in vain. There is also time. As we all know, a good oil painting can take as little as three to five hours or as many as three to five days from improvisation to completion. And proposition painting gives you the only choice to use your imagination to paint around the bracelet. The difficulty is Undoubtedly bigger. More importantly, this action of the organizer completely subverted the tradition of oil painting. The characteristic of oil painting is free space, without a specific meaning and scene. It makes sense to make propositions in traditional Chinese painting, but oil painting does not make sense. In other words, this is also a Chinese characteristic. Copycats become their own style. As soon as the emcee's voice fell, the time pointed to seven o'clock exactly, "Start now, the time is only one hour!" Before many people had time to lament and complain, the game had already begun. Wang Tianshi didn't complain at all, because Xue Suwen didn't ask him what he drew until he entered the field, so he didn't think about it. After the game started, he raised his head and glanced at Yao Yujiao again, and then looked back at Xue Suwen in the stands behind him. At one glance at the red leaves, he knew what he was going to draw Phoenix seeking phoenix!
