Chapter Fifteen: Magic Performance (Four Updates, Seeking Recommendations and Bookmarks)
In the blink of an eye, 9 days passed like this. Every morning, Gao Tianming practiced Tai Chi, and in the afternoons, he followed Gangzi to participate in the department team's practice, being busy but happy.
Tonight, the Accounting Department will hold a welcome party for freshmen, and at the same time, to bless the basketball team, all members of the basketball team will take the stage.
The basketball team cancelled their training in the afternoon, giving the players time to tidy up their appearance. Making themselves look more handsome, who knows if they might catch some ignorant freshman girls off guard. A group of lechers are all holding onto this kind of unhealthy idea.
Someone suggested that everyone wear uniforms, which would have a unified image. The proposal was drowned out by the crowd's ridicule.
"I'm already a senior, I should prioritize my own interests first. When I find a wife, you can tell me what to wear and I'll wear it." Gangzi is full of expectations for the evening party, but doesn't allow any other deviations.
In the end, everyone decided to mind their own business and not consider anything else.
In the dormitory, Gangzi stood in front of the mirror, fiddling with his hair.
"Older brother, you've been styling your hair for an hour now, can't you stop already? The smell of gel is really strong, you've almost used up half a bottle." Baozi said to Gangzi.
"You don't understand this, do you? Do you know why actors put on heavy makeup when they go on stage?" Gangzi patted Baozi's shoulder with a look of great knowledge. "It's so that after being hit by the spotlight, their facial features can be seen clearly. My use of hair gel is for the same reason."
Baozi pouted, "Look at Tianming, he just took a bath, changed his clothes, and didn't do anything else."
"He's really not making progress, alas." Jianzi pretended to lament, with a look of regret that he wasn't working hard enough.
"Alright, it's about time, let's go."
"It's so soon, I haven't even finished styling my hair yet."
"Boss, you're already very handsome now, and it's enough to charm those girls." Gaotianming quickly flattered.
"Haha, Tianming indeed has good taste, knows how to appreciate. Jianzi had a very pleased expression, waved his hand and said 'Let's go then'."
Four people from the dormitory rushed to the performance venue, said goodbye to Paozi and Lüzǐ, and Gaotianming and Gangzǐ came to the backstage of the stage.
All the other basketball players have arrived, except for Gao Tianming and Gangzi. Gangzi and Gao Tianming quickly apologized to the others.
"It's so late and yet they've just arrived. People who don't know them would think they're some kind of big shots." A sarcastic voice echoed from the crowd.
"Lin Zimin, it's you again! When can you be a bit quieter for once?" Zhangzi saw that it was Lin Zimin again and his anger flared up.
"Did I just say something wrong? You're late and you have a reason, right?" "We still have half an hour before we go on stage, what are you talking about being late?" Gangzi retorted directly.
Seeing two people having a tendency to quarrel again, the surrounding people quickly separated the two.
The program of the party was very wonderful, when it went halfway, the staff behind the scenes told them that they would go on stage next.
Sure, here is the translation:
As expected, after a while, the host began to introduce the basketball team in front: Our accounting department is a profession with more women than men, so the basketball team's performance has never been very ideal. However, facing setbacks, the team members have never given up. Now we welcome our lovely basketball team members on stage, everyone please give them a warm applause.
A group of enthusiastic chickens, as soon as the host finished speaking, everyone rushed up eagerly.
The spotlight shone over, and Gao Tianming felt a bit dazzled, narrowing his eyes.
The host interacted with the team members on stage, "I believe you will achieve good results this time. I don't know if you have brought any programs over?"
When the host finished speaking, the team members were stunned for a moment, and it seemed that there was no such arrangement before. At this time, they couldn't be cold, and Captain Li Tianpeng just wanted to speak, but was interrupted by another voice: "We have two people in our team who will represent our team to perform a program for everyone." After finishing speaking, Lin Zimin pointed his hand at Gao Tianming and Gangzi, with a sly smile on the corner of his mouth.
Gao Tianming and Gangzi were suddenly scolded by Lin Zimin, leaving them stunned for a moment.
"Lin Zimin, you...", just as he reacted, Gangzi was about to speak when Gao Tianming cut him off from the side.
"This is no time for quarreling, we can't dampen our own morale, you see," Gao Tianming said in a low voice to Gangzi.
The host thought it would be a chorus, but unexpectedly it was only two people performing, somewhat surprised, "I wonder what program the two of you are performing?"
"Haha, we're performing magic, and he's my assistant." Gaotianming smiled and pointed at Gangzi, "This time we didn't bring any props, so let's just perform a prediction magic trick for everyone."
It was heard that it was magic, and the audience in the auditorium began to cheer. Magic is very popular these days.
Gao Tianming called out to Gangzi to take two pieces of cardboard and two pens from under the table. "I'll demonstrate my prophecy magic trick for everyone, host, would you like to help me with the demonstration?"
Gave the host a cardboard and a pen, Gao Tianming said: "I write something on the cardboard, cover it up, then you write whatever you want on your cardboard, one sentence, one thing is fine, after you finish writing, I will show my cardboard, you also show your cardboard, let's see how different everyone's is."
When they heard that Gao Tianming was going to perform such a high-difficulty magic trick, the audience erupted in excitement.
"Then you can start writing." The host indicated that Gaotianming could begin. Gaotianming activated his own special ability.
Gao Tianming wrote "hello" on the cardboard and asked the host to start writing. After the host finished, Gao Tianming flipped his cardboard over, the host took a look, was stunned for a moment, then flipped his own cardboard over, "Flowers bloom, moon is full at night".
The screen with "啵" ended, seeing the result he wanted, Gao Tianming immediately ended his ability and wrote "Flowers bloom in the moonlight night", indicating that the host can start.
After the host had written the words on the board, Gao Tianming flipped his own board over. Seeing the words on Gao Tianming's board, the host's eyes were filled with astonishment, because she knew that she had never told him beforehand.
"The audience under the stage eagerly wants to know the answer."
The host smiled all over his face and slowly turned over his own cardboard, "A perfect night with flowers and moon".
"Oh!" The audience's emotions were ignited at once.
Gao Tianming pressed down with both hands and said, "I know everyone may suspect that I have colluded with the host, so now I'll leave the opportunity to the audience in the auditorium."
Gao Tianming asked Gangzi to hand a piece of cardboard to an audience member in the front row, then said: "Now the cardboard is in one of your hands. Next, I'll turn my back on you all and count from 1 to 10. You can pass the cardboard around randomly among yourselves. When I reach 10, whoever has the cardboard will come up here and perform."
Gao Tianming turned around, with his back facing the audience, and started counting: "1, 2, 3... 10, stop."
The sound had just stopped, and Gao Tianming turned around to see a female classmate being pushed forward.
Host: "May I ask, what's your name?"
"My name is Li Wei," the girl said shyly.
Gao Tianming smiled and said, "Li Wei, classmate, let's get started."
Activated his ability and saw Li Wei write "Great university, I'm here", Gao Tianming smiled slightly, this girl is really too cute.
When at last, Gao Tianming and Li Wei turned over all the cardboard boxes, the whole venue erupted. An impossible magic performance made everyone's applause almost blow off the roof of the stadium.
This is going to be an unforgettable night!
