Chapter 308: Champion of the semi-finals
Before the game ended, Luo Hao returned to his position.
Sitting there bored, Luo Hao simply opened his perspective and watched them make jade carvings.
Looking through the eyes, you can see more clearly and intuitively.
Luo Hao first looked at Jiang Hai. He could see that Jiang Hai's basic skills were very solid, but there were still flaws and shortcomings, such as the treatment of some yin lines was not perfect enough.
Yin-Yang Line is what He Pingjiang is best at, and is his unique skill. As He Pingjiang's apprentice, Jiang Hai has unique advantages in this regard.
Unfortunately, he didn't do it well.
After looking at Jiang Hai for a while, Luo Hao continued to look at other people, many people were not even as good as him. Luo Hao just glanced at him for a few seconds and quickly glanced at the next one.
Soon, a man who looked like he was thirty-five or six years old was under Luo Hao's observation.
He made a jade token.
During the competition, there are many people making jade tokens. First, jade tokens can be faster, and second, jade tokens can better show carving skills. This person is doing well.
Although Luo Hao doesn't know him, he seems very mature in all aspects of handling it. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be able to enter the finals.
However, his maturity is still a certain gap compared to the four top masters.
If there is a gap with top masters, it means there is a gap with Luo Hao.
Luo Hao continued to watch in the afternoon, a man of 41 or 2 was watched by him.
This man carved not a jade plaque, but an ornament.
Luo Hao made ornaments, but the ornaments took a long time. There were not many ornaments made during the competition. Luo Hao saw dozens of people, and this was the first one to make ornaments.
Unfortunately, what he did was the same as Luo Hao's morning, and the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, which was smaller than what Luo Hao did.
However, what he did was still a certain gap compared to Luo Hao, but the craftsmanship was generally very good and should be someone who could enter the finals.
With more than 200 people, only 18 people can reach the finals, and it is already very good to reach the finals.
Not to mention entering the finals, if you can achieve certain results in the rematch, you will be invited by major jewelry companies.
Jiang Hai is now working in the Ming family. He is a jade carver of the Ming family. He is very paid. After all, he is very strong. He ranked 23rd in the rematch last year, from the south, he is one of the top jade carvers.
Luo Hao looked around with more than 200 people, and the time was just over the end of the game.
After reading their works, Luo Hao also had a rough idea of who could advance to the finals. As long as the judges compare according to their results, he could guess it.
And his first place is also stable this time. No one is better than him, and no one can even compare with him.
When the time comes, the host asks everyone to stop the knife. Even if they haven’t finished it, they have to stop it, otherwise the results will be invalid.
There are few people who have arrived in the rematch and are not finished yet. After all, many people have only arrived after two rounds of preliminary rounds.
It is different during the preliminary round. There are often people who have not completed the time yet. Such people can only cancel their results and cannot even plan their time well. What are the competitions?
The judges were rating the jade carvers who knew each other, and they would gather together again to discuss their works today.
Some people are happy, some people sigh, those who feel that they have not performed well will be a little nervous.
Only eighteen people can participate in the finals, and even if they get nineteenth place, it will be a failure.
Being able to participate in the finals is actually a victory for many people.
The contestants who participated in the finals are definitely the targets of major jewelry companies. They have always had annual salary, and the annual salary starts at 300,000 yuan.
Just do nothing, and you can earn thirty years a year.
Of course, it is impossible to do nothing after joining a jewelry company, but no matter what they do, they have additional commissions. As long as they can reach the finals, they will basically earn 500,000 or 600,000 a year, which is stable.
If you can enter the top ten of the finals, you will earn at least one million in a year.
Not only are jewelry companies invited, but many people will also ask them to help with processing, and the minimum labor cost of the work starts at least five digits.
It can be said that as long as you achieve good results, it will definitely be a double harvest of fame and fortune.
"Luo Hao, look at you, are you stable this time?"
Jiang Hai came to Luo Hao's side and asked with a smile. Among all the jade carvers, he was the only one who knew Luo Hao's strength the best.
He admires Luo Hao's strength very much.
"It's okay, what about you?"
Luo Hao smiled and asked, "In fact, Luo Hao has already seen his works, and this time he entered the finals, it's a bit mysterious again."
There are really many better things than him. If Luo Hao comes to the evaluation, he will not consider any reason and only consider knife skills. Jiang Hai will not be in the top 20.
"It's normal, I guess it's hard to enter the finals this year!"
Jiang Hai knew his situation, and after saying that, he shook his head: "If this year doesn't work, next year. Anyway, I'm only 35 years old this year, and I still have ten years of chance. In these ten years, I will reach the finals no matter what!"
Jiang Hai has a very good attitude. As long as the ranking can improve compared to last year, he will be very content.
"If you have to believe in yourself, maybe this year will be fine!"
Luo Hao comforted him that the judges on the stage had already started rating the score now, and his works were divided into the third group, with both works being scored at the same time.
With a slight movement in his heart, Luo Hao extended his perspective and looked at the judges.
He immediately found his name and score, nine:9:00, ten.
This is the score given by the judge to his work. The eight immortals cross the sea at 9:9, and the hundreds of birds pay homage to the phoenix.
The highest score is ten, and his two scores are already very high.
The highest of other works is only 9:30 and the lowest of 7:70 is, which is very different from him.
Luo Hao will definitely reach the finals for this judge's score, and it will be the first to reach the final.
After watching it, Luo Hao did not continue to watch it. The judges only need to score notarizedly, so he will definitely reach the finals and the first place will enter the finals.
An hour passed quickly, and all the contestants stood at their work desks and looked up at the big screen.
Results will be announced on the big screen and no one needs to read them.
The people in the audience also looked up and looked at the big screen. The big screen was about to show the results of this time.
The big screen was finally refreshed, and the first ones appeared were the eighteen contestants who entered the finals through the rematch, as well as the total results of their two works.
The number one is Luo Hao.
Two works, one scored 88.9 points and the other scored 89.7 points, and the final total score was 178.6 points.
These two scores can be said to be very high, especially the second one, which turned out to be a high score of 89.7.
This means that at least six of the nine judges gave the work full marks.
The total score of 178.6 is also higher than that of many previous sessions, becoming the highest total score in previous sessions.
"That's a high score?"
"I'm going to see it later, there are so many full marks!"
After the competition, all the works of the contestants will be placed in the exhibition hall for three days.
First, let everyone visit, and second, let everyone supervise to prove the fairness of the judges.
However, this exhibition is charged, and it is held in Jieyang Jade Museum. After the exhibition, the batch of works provided by the organizing committee will be auctioned. If the contestants bring their own works, they can also be entrusted to the organizing committee for auction.
The organizing committee will eventually draw 10% of the handling fee and will return the other money to the contestants.
Every year, half of the contestants will be auctioned by the organizing committee. Most of the remaining half is the place where they already have a job, and the raw materials provided by their boss. They will take them back and hand them over to the boss, and the labor costs they should have will not be less.
Among the eighteen lists, there is no Jiang Hai.
"Luo Hao, congratulations!"
Jiang Hai had a complicated expression. He knew that Luo Hao would definitely enter the finals and would win the first place, but Luo Hao really got the first place. When he didn't even enter the finals, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
He knew very well that Luo Hao had become a monk halfway through and had not been learning jade carving for a long time.
In such a short time, he is even better than him, a person who has been studying for more than 20 years. To say that Jiang Hai has no idea, it is definitely a lie.
Whether it is envy or jealous, there is always a little bit.
The large screen stopped for three minutes before the results were shown.
There are thirty people on each page, and the ranking is only 108, and there will be no more in the future.
Jiang Hai's name appeared on the second page, twenty-one.
It has improved by two places compared to last year, but unfortunately, it was not able to enter the finals.
The most depressing and most regretful is the 19th place.
The total score of the 18th place is 169.2, while his score is 169.1. He is only 0.2 points away, and he can surpass the 18th place and enter the finals.
And with just such a small gap, he missed the final.
There is nothing to do if you are depressed. The competition is cruel. There are only eighteen places that advance to the finals, and only eighteen people can be reached.
Even if the scores are the same, there will be an extra game in the end and the last place will be decided.
"Congratulations to the 18 people entering the finals. Now I announce that the 20th Jade Carving Competition will end the Southern Rematch!"
The host stood up and announced the end of the game. The audience began to leave the game, and the contestants also began to leave. However, Luo Hao and the eighteen people were kept. They were contestants participating in the finals, and the organizing committee would explain to them.
The finals will be held in Beijing twelve days later.
It was also on the same day that the eighteen finalists were decided in Beijing, and it took them twelve days to start the true peak duel.
"Luo Hao, I am Wu Xiao, the director of the organizing committee. Are you interested in auctioning your phoenix with a hundred birds?"
As soon as Luo Hao passed, a woman in her fifties came up and asked with a smile.
It was this work that seven judges gave full marks, and only two judges deducted zero points and zero points.
This work is made of high-ice jadeite, and it will definitely be sold at a high price if it goes to auction, so the director was shocked to come and persuade him.
"Sorry, I don't plan to sell this one!"
Luo Hao politely refused. He didn't know how valuable his works were, but he understood that the greater his reputation, the higher the value of his works.
Chapter completed!
