Chapter 28: Magic Craze!
Dengfeng’s Live Stream Room.
The Streamer is enthusiastically introducing her windbreaker.
Suddenly, a large group of viewers flooded into the Live Stream Room.
Before the streamer could even happily greet them, the netizens’ questions instantly stunned her:
“Streamer! How much stuff can your windbreaker hold?”
“Can it hold a one-and-a-half-meter branch?”
“Not just branches, but also a lot of leaves and bark.”
“The most important thing is that it can’t be seen from the outside.”
……
Looking at that series of very abstract requirements, the streamer finally came back to her senses and stammered:
“Everyone, we are selling windbreakers, they are clothes, not some kind of packaging bag, so it, it really can’t hold a one-and-a-half-meter branch.”
After hearing this, the audience immediately became excited:
“Impossible! Absolutely impossible, Qi God was clearly wearing your windbreaker, it’s impossible that he can’t hide it, and the clothes you sell can’t hide it.”
“There must be a hidden model, why not take it out quickly? I’ll pay, is that okay?”
“Could it be that Qi God’s windbreaker is specially customized? How much does it cost, name a price, as long as it can hide a pile of branches and make it invisible, I’m willing to pay any amount.”
“I don’t care about the rest, anyway, I’ve already placed an order, and if I can’t put the branches in it, I will definitely complain fiercely!”
……
The live stream streamer is going crazy.
Actually, it’s not just her, but also the streamers of several brands, including pants and shoes, who are also going crazy.
Are these netizens crazy?
What shoes can hold a one-and-a-half-meter branch?
Are those shoes worn by Cyclops?
But we only serve humans, damn it!
In the end, major companies had to issue clarification statements on their official blogs.
The watch sellers were even more helpless and cried out:
【 Please be rational, we really can’t make our watches do what you want, to be able to put everything in front of you away with one press, and then take things out with another press. If any watch manufacturer can do it, I will definitely buy it too, and if you find it, be sure to tell us 】.
Seeing these statements, the onlookers all burst out laughing:
“Does anyone really think Qi God’s magic has something to do with props?”
“If it’s not props, what could it be? Superpowers?”
“In my opinion, clothes are possible, but watches are too far-fetched.”
“Clothes are also impossible, how could his windbreaker possibly hold a one-and-a-half-meter branch? Even if it could, under the watchful eyes of everyone, how can you take it out without revealing any flaws?”
“This is Qi God’s ability, if it’s so easy to be exposed, can it still be called magic?”
“Magic is originally props or sleight of hand, the principle is very simple after many magic tricks are exposed, the reason why we are fooled is completely because we don’t understand the core trick of Qi God, maybe this magic is actually very simple after being exposed.”
“The problem is, who can reveal the principle behind it? I won’t even mention replication, being able to reveal it means they are the top magicians in China.”
“@Little Wang the Magician, @Feifei Who Doesn’t Know Magic, @Street Magician Chao, @Liu Chang the Great Demon King…”
“Damn, these magicians with millions or even tens of millions of fans, are usually very arrogant, but now that they are needed, why are they all gone?”
“Even if you can’t replicate it, at least come out and tell everyone about the principles and techniques involved.”
“Is it possible that they haven’t even figured out the principles yet?”
“Not to that extent, these are all the top magicians in China, who have been immersed in the magic circle for many years, with rich experience, not to mention, their vision and techniques are top-notch, there’s no reason why they can’t see anything when Qi Xuan performs magic.”
“I just received news from within the circle that major magicians seem to be studying Qi God’s recorded broadcast videos, analyzing his magic techniques.”
“Laughing to death, I just heard from a friend that Little Wang the Magician was too engrossed in studying Qi God’s magic, and as a result, he missed his flight.”
“Sigh, when will they figure it out, it’s killing me.”
……
About an hour later, Liu Chang, a top magician in China who has won multiple magic awards and has successfully held large-scale magic performances more than ten times in a row, publicly published a long article:
“When Qi God was live streaming, I happened to be at a gathering with several magician friends, and as soon as the live stream ended, we immediately found the high-definition recorded broadcast video, analyzed his techniques, principles, and props from various angles, trying to replicate it.
Unfortunately, several hours have passed, not to mention replication, we don’t even understand the principle of this magic trick.
Outsiders may think that Qi God’s magic trick looks no different from us making doves or roses appear, but in reality, the difference is huge.
Whenever something appears out of nothing, it is basically achieved by relying on props or visual misdirection, including the magician’s gestures, expressions, and language, which are often used to distract your attention.
But what did you see Qi God do when he performed magic? Did he have special language guidance? No, did he have special magic actions? No, did he have a specific perspective presentation? Even more so, no!
He even showed the process of performing magic from multiple angles at close range, dozens of times, my friends, and he was building a lean-to while performing magic, and even in his eyes, building a lean-to was even more important.
In the end, he didn’t even bother to perform it on purpose, and casually conjured up a material he needed, is this something a person can do?
Under normal circumstances, we magicians have to conjure up specific things, we have to go through a series of preparations and long-term training to ensure that we don’t make mistakes during the performance, but what about Qi God?
The torrential rain came suddenly, the materials were picked up casually, and the lean-to was only built temporarily, I won’t even mention his techniques and principles, if anyone else, without any preparation, conjured up a branch, they could become the top magician in China.
I have always been arrogant and never admit defeat to other magicians, believing that I can do what others can do.
But this time, I really admit defeat.
If Qi God can come down from the Floating Continent, I will call him the number one magician in China!”
As a top magician in China, and a big Internet Celebrity with tens of millions of fans, when Liu Chang’s long article was published, it coincided with the time when countless people were exploring Qi Xuan’s magic, and it instantly became a hot search.
After reading the entire article, not to mention the magic enthusiasts circle in China, even the people who usually don’t pay much attention to magic were all shocked.
“I thought Qi God was awesome, but I didn’t expect Qi God to be so awesome!”
“Yes, even the mouth cannon king of the magic circle admitted defeat on the spot, this is too rare.”
“I still remember the last time he sprayed an old senior in the magic circle, scolding him for not being progressive and relying on his seniority, his temper was almost arrogant, but I didn’t expect to see him admit defeat.”
“I regret not taking a closer look when Qi God performed, I’ll go back and review the recorded broadcast carefully.”
“Me too, me too.”
