The incense tablets that Si Yiyan prepared for her were made by Wan Niang herself, and the effect is excellent. Not only can they calm the mind, relieve fatigue, and assist sleep, but they also have the effect of relaxing the meridians and activating blood circulation. Combined with the calming pills made by Ruoruo for her, she quickly adapted to the time difference in Italy, and is energetic and radiant every day.
The Milan Expo International Jewelry Design Competition has always been a high-level jewelry design competition in the world. It is held every three years and each time attracts widespread attention from the world.
Therefore, the organizers of the Milan Expo Jewelry Association and all the major co-organizers attach great importance to the competition.
After the finalists arrive in Milan, the organizers will give them a period of relaxation and adaptation, and give everyone a certain amount of time to adjust their body, emotions, and mood to the best state.
So Lilang has been taking Wen Xinya to visit some world-famous scenic spots in Milan these two days.
For example, Milan Cathedral is one of the five largest cathedrals in the world and the second largest in the world.
The architectural style of the church is very unique. The upper part is a Gothic spire, and the lower part is a typical Baroque style. It is decorated with sculptures from top to bottom, and is extremely intricate and exquisite. It is a representative building of the Renaissance.
There are more than 6,000 marble statues in the entire church. The themes of the statues are mostly religious themes such as biblical stories, and the statues are of various shapes and sizes.
Napoleon held his coronation ceremony here. There is a golden statue of the Virgin Mary on the top of the tower. It looks dazzling in the sun, magical and magnificent.
"What a magical building." Wen Xinya is not a Catholic. Before she met Si Yiyan, she had no faith. After she met Si Yiyan, she began to believe in Buddhism. But even so, when she saw this world-famous church with her own eyes, she couldn't help but be shocked, and her heart instantly became pious.
Lilang said: "Milan is not only world-famous for fashion, sightseeing and architecture, but also for its extremely rich cultural heritage. It is the hometown of many geniuses and the cradle of art. It contains a large number of valuable cultural and artistic heritages, the most famous of which is Leonardo da Vinci's "The Last Supper."
Wen Xinya deeply agrees with this.
Compared to Country Z, this famous ancient cultural country now leaves behind a riddled sense of historical mystery for future generations, waiting for them to tirelessly dig out those brilliant cultural heritages. Milan, on the other hand, is a metropolis that truly integrates culture, fashion, architecture, and tourism.
"When will the finals start?" This was the first time Wen Xinya asked about the competition after three days in Milan.
Li Lang looked at Wen Xinya and smiled meaningfully: "Wen, when you asked me when the game would start, it showed that you have adjusted your body and emotions to the best state and have confidence in yourself. I am really happy for you."
There are ten finalists and ten responsible specialists. They were not assigned by the Jewelry Association, but selected from designers they liked. Li Lang began to pay attention to the young designer Wen Xinya since the qualifying round. Her design style is classical, gorgeous, profound and novel. Her greatest advantage is that she is good at interpreting the soul of the design works, which is extremely important for a designer.
From the qualifying round to the finals, each of the three works she designed had its own unique style, each was an improvement, and each was eye-catching, allowing him to see the designer's extremely high talent.
However, after meeting her in person, Li Lang was not disappointed with her.
She has deep insights into jewelry design and is an extremely knowledgeable and talented jewelry designer. He dares to guarantee that none of the ten jewelry designers participating in the finals can match her talent.
Her profound knowledge and talent will become her weapons to reach the top.
In response to his affirmation and praise, Wen Xinya sincerely thanked him: "Thank you, Mr. Li Lang."
Li Lang continued: "In fact, the game has already begun from the moment you set foot on the land of Milan!"
Wen Xinya was a little surprised: "What does this mean?"
The competition has already started? But in the past two days, she either stayed in the hotel and talked on the phone with Si Yiyan, or went out to play with Li Lang, and occasionally went shopping in the shopping mall on the top floor of the hotel, but she never heard Li Lang mention anything about the finals.
Li Lang smiled and explained to her: "The specific situation of the finals depends on the status of the contestants. Some contestants do not need any relaxation and adaptation process and directly ask to participate. Some contestants need one or two days to adapt and relax. Of course, some contestants need longer time. The commissioner will not interfere with any decision of everyone."
I won’t tell you the rules of this kind of competition, you have to discover it by yourself.
Wen Xinya frowned slightly and asked, "So, may I ask, when is the deadline for the finals?"
"The deadline is the seventh day from the time you set foot in Milan, which means you have less than five days to design from now on."
Li Lang was very satisfied with Wen Xinya's reaction. After learning about the competition rules, she did not complain about the unfairness of the rules. Instead, she went straight to the point. She is indeed a very smart woman.
As far as he knows, several contestants have expressed their dissatisfaction with such competition rules in the past two days.
Wen Xinya showed a look of realization and said with a faint smile: "I understand. So what is the content of the finals?"
Such competition rules are really interesting.
Perhaps many people would think that this is unfair, and that the person who discovers the rules of the game earlier will have the greater advantage because she has more design time than everyone else.
In fact, when it comes down to it, the problem lies in your own state.
Jewelry design is a profession that relies on inspiration, talent, and accumulation. Time is not the decisive factor in determining success or failure. Two or three days, or three or four days will not have much impact on one's own strength.
Everyone comes to Milan for the jewelry design competition. Everyone knows that before the competition, the organizers will give everyone some time to relax and adapt, so once everyone thinks that their body's various conditions are adjusted to the best, they will naturally focus on the competition and naturally discover the rules of the competition.
It doesn’t matter whether it is fair or not, the problem always lies within oneself. Such competition rules are a true test of strength, accumulation, and talent.
Li Lang smiled and said, "I'll give you the details of the game when we get back to the hotel."
