Chapter 454 Abnormal and Supernatural(1/2)
The building where the headquarters of Situ Family Company is located is a very tall building.
The two of them took the elevator to the 37th floor before entering a spacious hall.
The entire hall is decorated in luxury and high-end, but it also has a mysterious oriental color.
The ceiling of the hall is dotted with countless dazzling crystal light bulbs, forming a large five-star shape that almost covers the entire hall.
The floor of the hall is made of black nanmu, which looks a bit like red sandalwood, but of course it is not red sandalwood.
Now even the richest man in the world cannot use rosewood as a floor to decorate the entire conference room.
It’s not that he has no money, but that he doesn’t have so many good things to waste.
Because the hall is too spacious, four Roman cylinders are erected in the middle.
The surface of the four walls is covered with mahogany, and there are a row of rosewood antique seats and coffee tables placed against the base of the wall.
The hall is divided into two parts, high on the east side and low on the west side.
The higher part on the east side accounts for about one-quarter of the entire hall, and the three-quarters opposite is the venue with one step lower.
There are many comfortable and quaint single seats in the venue, and they are the ones who have tickets to watch the first round of the competition today.
The place on the east side is a spokesperson high table, and there are two meniscus-shaped sofas, one on the left and one on the right, on both sides of the spokesperson high table.
Eight contestants selected for the first round of the competition sat there.
The spokesperson high table in the middle is for the host to use.
The audience was already filled with people.
The ten judges, and He Zhichu, the Supreme judge, sat in the first row below the stage.
Situ Che and Situ Zhao were also here, and there were Shen Qixuan, Situ Qiu and Shen Rubao, a family of three from the Shen family.
Lan Qinfen and Cen Chunyan sat next to Situ Qiu.
There are also local Chinatown bosses, Chinese rich people, and relatives and friends of these people.
For example, Xiao Yiyuan, who took Zhuge Hanying to give him the ticket, and Zhuge Hanying and Zhuge Yunliu also came, and they were both with Xiao Yiyuan.
In addition to the top eight, the Taoist priests who participated in the competition yesterday also received tickets.
They sat with the elders and senior officials of the Ge Sect.
In less than 8:30, the conference hall that could accommodate 300 people was already full.
Those who can come here today are all upper-class people from overseas Chinese.
Wen Yinuo didn't know many people, but she could look at her face.
Looking up, so many people have different auras.
She sat with Taoist Wang, and there were two old Taoist priests over fifty years old around her. It seemed that it was her first time entering the top eight, and they were all very excited.
Mr. Zhuge and three other people sat on the couch on the right.
He is elegant and leisurely, and at first glance he is a veteran who has been through the battlefield for a long time. This is not the first time.
Because of his calm state, the three Taoist priests in his forties were also relatively quiet, and they were not as lively as Wen Yinuo on the left.
Taoist Wang felt that his eyes were not enough, so he looked up and down, left and right, wishing to take out his cell phone and take a few selfies for him to post to his disciples.
He stared at the rosewood seats under the four walls and said, "...those are antiques? But the level of oldness is really amazing, all patinas."
Wen Yinuo squinted his eyes and looked at it, smiling without saying a word.
If it is an "anti-fashioned", she can pick out her eyes.
It is clearly an "antique" and there is another noun, called "cultural relics".
The Situ family company can use these real ancient furniture as daily necessities, which is really a blessing...
Everyone chatted for a while, and the big bell hanging on the wall opposite the hall rang.
It was already half past eight and the host was about to speak.
Situ Che walked up first.
He was wearing a decent light gray suit today, which made him look more elegant, like a noble young man walking out of ancient books.
But after a moment of standing on the stage, the momentum of the Chinatown boss has already begun to show.
He looked off the stage and everyone was silent and stopped talking.
Situ Che smiled slightly and nodded, "Welcome to the first round of the 18th Daomen World Cup."
"In previous years, we invited the parties to come to this venue, ask questions, and then the most outstanding masters in our sect solved the problem. At the same time, the judges scored the problem based on the difficulty and the level of solving the problem."
Situ Che said this and paused slightly.
Everyone's heart couldn't help but raise it to their throats.
He said "past years", and this year will definitely be different.
Sure enough, Situ Che nodded and said, "Our rules are a little different today."
"First of all, the three-round official competitions of this Daomen World Cup leader will be held on the spot."
"In other words, the competition venue is not in this venue, but based on the different clients, we go to the on-site competition where the client needs to solve the client's problems."
"Secondly, some of the content of this competition will be broadcast live online."
As soon as he said this, the people who bought tickets at a high price immediately turned dark.
If this competition can only be watched online and not on-site, why do they spend so much money to buy tickets?
However, Situ Che knew their concerns and immediately said: "Dear viewers with votes, you can get a unique password, enter the live broadcast room, and watch the entire competition content."
So if you have a ticket or a privilege, it's almost the same, it won't be too crap.
Situ Che smiled and said, "When you come home later, you can enter your home theater, turn on the large-screen HD TV, and watch the entire content of this competition comfortably."
In these three rounds of competition, their foreign votes were fewer than each other.
In the final theory, there were basically only judges, and less than twenty other people had votes to watch.
Situ Che also said: "The live broadcast of this competition is provided by Mr. He Zhichu, a judge of Taishang, to provide all drones with follow-up shots. The drone is equipped with an artificial intelligence image recognition system produced by Yuannuo Special Effects Company to conduct instant post-production. The live broadcast platform is a domestic Daomen App. Please download the app and prepare to watch it."
Wen Yinuo was very surprised. She neither expected Situ Che to use Xiao Yiyuan's artificial intelligence image recognition system to perform instant post-production, nor did she expect Situ Che to use the Daomen app to broadcast live.
You should know that Taoist app was developed by Zhang Fengqi!
In the past, this app was only used by people from Taoism, and not many people knew it in the country.
When Situ Che put out the advertisement for this Taoist World Cup, the number of downloads of her Taoist app will be in the sky!
Wen Yinuo was already thinking about the small money that could be paid...
But when did Xiao Yiyuan get in touch with Situ Che?
Wen Yinuo looked at Xiao Yiyuan thoughtfully and happened to see him giving a thumbs up in the direction of Cen Chunyan.
Wen Yinuo: “…”
She guessed that this matter must be unrelated to Cen Chunyan.
In fact, Xiao Yiyuan only received the news after he came to New York.
Of course, according to the agreement, he had to keep it confidential and even Wen Yinuo didn't say it.
This business was facilitated by Cen Chunyan.
At that time, Situ Che just wanted to find a software that could produce videos in post-production special effects, which would be able to produce them instantly and have a certain amount of artificial intelligence.
But I can't find any software that suits me.
Later, there was no choice but to consult Chen Qixuan and Cen Chunyan.
Unexpectedly, Chen Qixuan and Cen Chunyan both agreed and recommended the product from Xiao Yiyuan Company.
Although they are still among the defendants, they can still do business before the trial has begun.
This is a ready-made cloud software. As long as you sign a contract and pay a lot, you can use it immediately.
Chen Qixuan only recommended it, but Cen Chunyan actually promoted this business.
Wen Yinuo didn't understand the twists and turns in this, but she guessed it almost exactly.
She withdrew her gaze, her eyes as dark as the night without a trace of stars.
After the format of the competition was announced, the signing ceremony of the eight players was followed.
Several staff members brought them a thick stack of contracts and asked them to sign.
Wen Yinuo took a quick look and found that these conditions were really harsh.
Of course, it is said to be a "life and death situation", and of course it is harsh.
Is there any more demanding conditions than life?
However, Wen Yinuo can't figure out why his life is still in danger of being in the game...
In the previous Dao Sect Kung Fu competition, it was just a person who was injured, so it was impossible to kill him.
To be continued...
