Dragon Master novel Maximilian novel Chapter 598

In a flash, the lights in the venue went out one by one, only the lights on the stage were left.

In VIP room on the second floor of the sports center.

With the lights in the venue were extinguished one by one, the stage became the focus of the whole center.

Then two hosts, a man and a woman came to the stage, and started to introduce the contents of the competition after the routine greetings and introduction of guests.

The theme of this jade carving conference was changed to an antique appraisal conference, so as to evaluate the masters’ true level.

The rules were simple: all the antiques appeared in the event, whether real or faked, were auctioned according to the market price of the real antiques. The buyers who bought the real antiques could take the auction item away naturally.

If the buyer could finger out the faked goods on the spot, he could destroy the faked item on the spot, and the money paid for the item would donate to the charity.

This was equivalent to compete the antique appreciation ability with the counterfeiting skills!

After hearing the host's introduction to the rules, Amira turned her head and said to Maximilian, "Hey, Maximilian, it's a bit interesting. They put the real goods and faked goods together to shoot. It is not a competition, and not even a jade carving competition. It is the first time I hear it. It is good to do charity in this way, which can improve people's ability to distinguish the true treasures from faked ones, and serve the society. I think this activity is meaningful."

Maximilian just smiled.

Although it was common in ancient times to make counterfeit treasures, the technique of counterfeiting was renovating and improving year by year.

Nowadays, faked antiques were more difficult to distinguish. As the host of the jade carving competition, Pearce, a senior insider, naturally understood the rules deeply.

But it was admirable for him to develop antique business and charity in both hands and achieve his fame and profit together.

Once the staff finished arranging the stage, the competition officially began.

The host mentioned that there would be a total of 12 pieces in this competition, which would be divided into two rounds.

During the bidding process, guests could use the bidding device configured on each seat to add the price for the current auction. The real-time auction would be synchronized in the big screen on the stage.

If the paused time for any price exceeded 20 seconds, the product would go to the current bidder.

It was really the first time for Maximilian to participate in such a modern competition. After pressing the button on the seat handle according to instruction, a bidding device popped up at the top of the handle.

Wow, it was interesting! Maximilian looked at the delicate bidding device in his hand, and couldn't help but expect more about the game.

The first round had eight items, four jade wares and four porcelain pieces respectively.

Although each piece appeared brilliant under the spotlight on stage, none of them could stand the test of top treasure appreciation expert and counterfeiter on the stage.

Each piece of auction was called for two or three times before a deal was nailed, which resulted in the first round of auction lasting not long. Soon, there came a break, and the hall was filled with music and dancing shows.

Amira didn’t know much about it, but she sensed something wrong as the first round of auction ended prematurely, so she asked Maximilian.
