Chapter 58(1/2)
If this magic is in general, it is just a secret move when people don’t pay attention. Those who have coaxed children can smile, but the problem is that we have never left the seat!
Director Liu put the ashtray back to its original position, his expression unable to calm down for a long time, and finally gave the only possible conclusion: "You bought another one according to my ashtray and put it in that room in advance?"
I smiled and said, "We don't know what cigarettes you smoke? You see, you haven't even touched the cigarette."
Director Liu looked at his ashtray and finally admitted: "Yes, there was a piece on this corner - I'm convinced!"
"Then the registration matter..."
"I'm calling now." Director Liu dialed a number, and it seemed that he had called the TV station directly, and said in an vague voice, "That... Master Wang? I have a contestant in this situation. He wants to go to "The Great Devils"..."
Director Liu muttered and hung up the phone and said, "The program team will find a way. The resurrection match will be at 6:30 tomorrow night."
"Okay, then thank you Director Liu."
Director Liu Qiqiai Ai said: "That... can I ask you how that magic changed?"
I looked at Lu Dongbin, and Lu Dongbin said casually: "Yes, I'll tell you."
Director Liu unconsciously leaned over and listened carefully. Lu Dongbin demonstrated, "Did I shake like this just now?"
“Yes, yes, then what?”
"And I actually took this thing in my hand." Lu Dongbin pulled the huge ashtray between his finger and the tiger's mouth as usual.
Director Liu didn't care about his flaws and said anxiously: "What about next?"
"And then--" Lu Dongbin waved his hand suddenly, "I'll throw it to that room." Director Liu's eyes followed his hands and looked at him in a flash, and then he found that Lu Dongbin had put the ashtray back into the original place with his other hand, and then he realized that he had been teased.
Lu Dongbin laughed and walked out, leaving Director Liu watching us leave in a daze...
After leaving the municipal party committee building, I asked Lu Dongbin: "Brother Bin, do we need to buy some props or something?"
Lu Dongbin said: "What props do you want? Isn't it enough to have me?"
"That's right, I won't worry."
...
After going home for supper, I continued to study the video and analyzed which people were likely to enter the resurrection competition. Except for one of the people who practiced Jiu-Jitsu, we were optimistic about the others, and in the end we simply didn't bother to watch it.
Nezha said: "Brother Xiaoqiang, my final results have come out."
"Oh, how many points did you get?"
The ranking is not important at all - it's the last one anyway, and it's the one I'm most worried about. If Nezha gets single-digit scores, Gao Xingyan should ask me to give up tomorrow.
Nezha said: "I got the 38th place in the exam."
"How many?"
"38." Nezha explained, "If I hadn't been to save Pipi the night before and didn't have to review my homework, I would probably have been able to take 10 more places."
"How did you do it?" More than 60 people got 38, which is similar to my grades back then. Moreover, Gao Xingyan's class is a fast class with top students, and it has a very valuable content.
Nezha said: "I have scored points in English, and there is also the title of the composition called "It is better to teach people how to fish than to teach people how to fish". There was no problem, but I couldn't write many simplified Chinese characters, so I had to change other words, and the score was also very low."
Speaking of composition, I suddenly remembered that the topic we had in the composition was about Lu Dongbin, saying that a beggar on the roadside was almost about to die of cold and starvation. Then Lu Dongbin opened his golden finger and ordered a few pieces of gold for him. Unexpectedly, the beggar didn't want it. When Lu Dongbin asked him what he wanted, the beggar pointed at Lu Dongbin and said, "I want your finger." Then this question was derived from this matter, let us analyze that we should be far-sighted and have a long-term vision. My true thought at that time was: This guy was too shameless.
When I told Lu Dongbin about this, Lu Dongbin smiled and said, "Don't say that this happened, it's really happening."
"Then how did you do it?" I said curiously.
"What else can I do?" Lu Dongbin suddenly said angrily, "I grabbed that grandson and beat him up. I want my fingers, damn it!"
We all laughed.
...
After dinner the next day, I drove Lu Dongbin and the Tianjie doll to the recording site of "The Great Devils Platter". The program team rented a studio in the city's film factory to do the scene, but they were not on the TV station.
After registering the name and purpose at the entrance, we found Studio No. 5 and heard about my purpose. The director of the program team quickly pulled me to a dressing room where no one worked and told me: "Tonight there were five contestants participating in the resurrection competition, and you were six, but the program did not change much. After the judges selected the top three in the first round, the original audience judges eliminated one contestant and eliminated two, and then the two and two matched each other. You have to try to enter the top three in the first round. Our introduction to you is "mysterious contestants". If you perform well, no one would ask more. If you drag it to the round of the audience judges, you will definitely die, because you were not popular before, and your identity appeared temporarily and was ambiguous. Anyone with a discerning eye would understand what was going on. Do you understand it?"
I nodded and said, "That means I can't make mistakes in the premiere."
The director said: "You can participate in the resurrection competition with exception. Director Liu and our director made a promise that something would happen. If you want to mess up our show, you will be scolded for being scolded immediately."
I said, "It's definitely not going to be smashed."
The director said: "If you are eliminated after entering the top three and someone asks about your qualifications, we will say that you are missed because of a mistake when registering. Now it is compensation to give you a chance. Remember this statement."
It seems that the director never looks down on me very much, and he is ready to wipe his butt paper.
Lu Dongbin smiled and said, "Don't worry, don't worry."
The director then looked at me and said, "Where are your props and performance costumes?"
"Props? Performance Costume?" I was stunned when asked.
The director suddenly became anxious: "Even if you don't use props, you can't just wear this to perform on stage, right?"
It was stuffy at night, and I wore a big shorts and vest. Lu Dongbin said there was no need for props, so I didn't even remember that I had to prepare a performance costume.
Lu Dongbin said: "Isn't it enough to have a wonderful show? What kind of performance costume do you need?"
The director asked me: "Who is this person?"
I casually said, "It's my props."
The director asked Lu Dongbin again: "What about the props you prepared?"
Lu Dongbin spread his hands: "No!"
The director stomped his feet in anger and said, "You just destroy me!"
At this time, someone outside the door called the director. The director walked out and said to me: "Go to the dressing room to wipe your face."
I took out a tissue and said, "No, I'm not sweating."
The director was so anxious: "Go!"
When I arrived at the public dressing room, I found that all the five contestants tonight had arrived. There were three makeup artists in the dressing room. The so-called face wiping is not just about wiping it, but about pink and red. Because the lights on the stage are turned on, people will look very rigid without these measures. I am ashamed of my ignorance.
The contestants talked and laughed between the makeup artists - although they were all eliminated, they were also the most popular in previous years. They had a lot of dealings with each other during the qualifiers, and I was the only one with a completely new face.
Seeing that one of the contestants had just finished putting on makeup, I walked over and sat on his chair. The young girl's makeup artist asked in confusion: "What are you?"
I gave her a smile and said, "I am the sixth contestant tonight, please trouble you."
The little girl probably heard about this, picked up the paint and swept it on my face, "I have never seen you before."
At this time, a sissy next to me who had no pink face turned her head and looked over and said, "You came in through the back door?"
I didn't care about what he said, so I recognized him first - Wang Yisan was the contestant who had performed Jiu Jitsu. I hurriedly reached out and said, "Good luck, you are my idol!" It's not a compliment, I really think it's not easy for him.
Wang Yisan ignored my hand, turned his eyes to the same pale face, and said contemptuously: "What trouble is it? Do you think it's a dark horse when you suddenly appear like this?"
Me: "..." Finally had an idol, but he was despised.
Wang Yisan didn't know what kind of evil fire was. He stood up and pointed at my nose and said, "Don't you know many people? If you know more people, you can sell insurance, sell Amway, and if you can't do it, you can do pyramid schemes. You can get a unique sense of superiority without any effort, right? I thought others saw you all the way to the second generation of rich officials, right? Who is the second generation of rich officials who is embarrassing to go to this place?"
The other contestants couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Hey, how do you say this?"
Wang Yisan angrily pointed at me and said, "I said, why do you follow him to coax him? They are all shameless and shameless, and they are eliminated and they still use themselves as their corners!"
I have to argue with such people, either, nor do I have to smile bitterly and ask the makeup artist to put on makeup.
A young man dressed in a well-dressed magician among the contestants said, "Aren't you eliminated too?"
Wang Yisan snorted, "If I hadn't met a hot girl, I would have been eliminated? That woman is really capable than me? Wouldn't she have big breasts and big butts?"
All the contestants knew that when quarreling, they were most afraid of such unreasonable things, and they were completely silent.
The Tianjie Doll said happily: "I didn't expect that the show would take so much anger before it even started. We didn't come in vain."
Lu Dongbin said: "Brother, it hurts your body if you don't pay attention. It's time to get sick."
Wang Yisan glared at Lu Dongbin and beat his leg like a demonstration - this guy could turn his left leg around the back of his head and kick his right ear...
At 8 o'clock, the audience started to enter the venue. They were able to participate in this exciting competition in person. The audience also seemed quite excited. Many people sneaked into the backstage to find Wang Yisan to sign, and some looked at other contestants with photos, but they were far less than Wang Yisan. Wang Yisan pretended to be unpretentious and looked at us coldly. Whenever there were beautiful female audiences, he would disguise himself as a snake and tie him on others...
At 8 o'clock, the program entered the countdown to broadcast. The deputy director and the host came to say hello to me respectively. In order to maintain a sense of mystery, I was the last one to appear.
The last preparation was made at 8:20, the actors put on makeup and the lighting and sound effects were fully turned on.
At 8:30, as the music started, the host jumped to the center of the stage, and the audience gave him warm applause. The host introduced the four judges and played for a few minutes, and the program officially began.
The first one to appear was Wang Yisan. After all, this guy is still the most popular player. He attracted applause as soon as he appeared. Wang Yisan wore a silver-gray tights and was drilling around in a tube that was thicker than the mouth of the bowl. I have to say that he still has real skills. Anyway, I was dazzled by the sight. The other players looked gloomy and looked unstable, and they seemed to be inconsistent.
The second one to appear was the young magician. As an introduction, he first spread a large pool of playing cards on the stage, then moved out of the magic box and threw various small hidden weapons out of it. The finale program was to take out a tissue from a glass water tank, and the audience checked it later. The glass water tank was not broken and the tissue was not wet. It was also a cheer.
I could see the magic, until the fourth contestant was about to finish the performance, the host suddenly ran over and asked me in a hurry: "What's the name of the show you performed?"
"Ah?" I realized that I was not an audience member.
The host gritted his teeth in a hurry and said, "Do you want to perform acrobatics or magic?"
I glanced at Lu Dongbin and said unsure: "Demon... art?"
"What's the name?" The host probably thought I had a heart of eating. He shouldn't have made such a big mistake. He didn't even know what kind of program the contestants performed, but I was temporarily arranged to come in, so I almost got into trouble.
Lu Dongbin and I stared at each other, but he had no idea. I simply crammed and grabbed the magic young man and asked, "What are the usual traditional magic?"
The magic young man said funny: "It turns into a living person, it turns into a goldfish, it turns into a sky..."
To be continued...
