After saying that, Wen Tiantian turned to the host and asked, "Am I right?"
The host was stunned. When he saw everyone's gaze on him, he immediately laughed.
"Miss Wen is right, this vase is indeed a fake."
As soon as he spoke, the crowd went into an uproar.
"How is this possible?"
Lee Jiawei stood up abruptly and slapped the table.
"You're lying! "You clearly said that this is a treasure borrowed from a museum. It's the real deal!"
The host shook his head and said helplessly, "Miss Li, you didn't hear what I just said clearly. I only said that this vase was borrowed from the Forbidden Palace's museum and never said it was real or a treasure. "
"In fact, this vase was given to the various countries' dignitaries by the Forbidden Palace five years ago. It was indeed personally made by several restoration masters. The real red glaze bottle is a national level cultural relic, so it's impossible for it to be lent to our program team. "
When Lee Jiawei heard this, her face instantly turned deathly pale.
"How is this possible?"
She rushed over, lifted the vase, and examined it closely.
As expected, he saw the small flaw at the bottom of the bottle. It was a fake …
She was so angry that she gritted her teeth. At that moment, with just a glance, she was already filled with confidence. Without further verification, she would be unable to see through the problem.
Lee Jiawei clenched her fists tightly, unwilling to give up.
He insisted, "This is a test of the history and history of cultural relics. Why would you use a fake vase? I clearly won! "
The host shook his head.
"Sister Li Xiao, you heard wrong again. Before the match began, I never said that this round was only about historical background. In fact, this round's main purpose is to check on the appraisal ability. In order to shorten the time spent on the program, the director has deliberately fused the first two matches together. "
"If that's the case, why didn't you inform me? Instead, it was deliberately mystifying! This is completely the fault of the program team! "
Lee Jiawei was unwilling to give up and was unwilling to let go. She pushed all the blame onto the program team.
On the other side, Wen Tiantian frowned and couldn't help but speak up.
"To appraise the authenticity of a treasure is a skill that a Cultural Relic Restorer should possess. If you think that an item is a treasure or fake when you see it, then the rest of the repairs would be meaningless. "
Everyone present nodded at Wen Tiantian's words.
Many people were bound by their innate thoughts, and believed that as long as they came from the old palace, it would be the real thing.
However, it was because of this kind of thinking that they were harmed.
Even the money he took out from the ATM could be fake, let alone such a treasure.
Collecting antiques was a gamble, so of course he had to be careful. If he lost, it was very likely that he would go bankrupt.
The audience's mood turned complicated. Once again, they looked at Wen Tiantian and Lee Jiawei with different gazes.
In their eyes, it was whatever that they were wrong, but why was it that a master restorer like Lee Jiawei was wrong as well?
With the object right before his eyes, if he could clearly observe it and make a mistake, how could such a person be at ease?
Let them appraise the treasure?
Lee Jiawei's expression was extremely unsightly.
Who would have thought that he would lose in this kind of place!
The more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became. She gritted her teeth and said, "It must be because Wen Tiantian already knew! She must have seen a lot of these kinds of vases while she was at the Forbidden City. Of course, she would be able to recognize their authenticity. "
"You're wrong."
Wen Tiantian explained, "Although I was at the Forbidden City a few days ago, but I've always been at the restoration area. I've never been to other places before."
"Besides, this is a national treasure. Ordinary people simply cannot see it. Even those gifts that were made have already been sent over. How could I possibly see them? All of these can be used by the masters of the Old Palace to testify for me. "
When the host heard this, he looked over curiously.
"How do you know where these bottles came from?"
Wen Tiantian smiled faintly.
"Although I've never worked in the Forbidden City before, I've always been paying attention to the movements of the Forbidden City. I already knew when this batch of vases were gifted to me five years ago. It was only after looking at it today that he understood. This was made by the most outstanding porcelain master from back then, Mr. Elder Peng. Although it was a fake, it was still a rare masterpiece.
That's right, the bottle of Red Glaze that the Old Palace gave to the various countries' politicians was personally made by Elder Peng.
They were considered to be of the highest quality.
When Lee Jiawei heard this, she became even more dissatisfied.
The gazes of the audience on her made her furious.
Wen Tiantian was merely lucky this time. She would definitely win the next match!
He abruptly turned to look at the host.
"You can begin the next match! This time, I will definitely win! "
She gnashed her teeth with a ferocious expression on her face, scaring the host into nodding her head.
"Okay, the next test we're going to test is the true repair technology. As we all know, it takes a great deal of time and effort to repair, and because of the limited time available today, we have found a few slightly defective items. In the program, the two of you can fix it. Whoever has the highest skill will win. "
"This time, we've specially invited a few famous collectors from the antiques circle to be the referee!"
After saying that, the camera turned and landed on the people sitting in the judges' seats.
Wen Tiantian turned around and saw Elder Zhang sitting in the middle of the crowd.
She had heard of the people around her before. They were all famous collectors of the antique industry.
Elder Zhang saw Wen Tiantian's gaze and winked at her.
Before this, Wen Tiantian herself did not know that Elder Zhang would also participate in this competition as a judge.
On the other side, Lee Jiawei couldn't wait to defeat Wen Tiantian after her defeat just now, so she could save her face.
The only difference from the first round was that a lot of antiques were delivered this time.
From the size of a walnut to the size of a vase that was half a meter tall, there were all kinds of toys. However, they all had one common characteristic. They were all flawed.
Wen Tiantian and Lee Jiawei could come forward and pick what they wanted to repair the most.
Lee Jiawei rushed forward as soon as the items were placed on the table.
In the second match, there were also shortcuts to be found.
So many cultural relics had flaws. Some were just a crack, while others were missing a portion.
The smaller the crack, the easier it was to repair, and the shorter the time it took to repair it.
The first person to repair it would definitely attract everyone's attention. Not to mention, the repair time was also limited.
The people chosen to repair it became very important.
