0002 Magic Forum

After taking a shower at home, I was lying quietly on the bed, looking at the second-hand assembly computer on the bookcase that I bought for a few hundred yuan, and thinking about a few magic tricks performed by the magician today.

He knows all those magic tricks, because several of them are the ones he regularly maintains, and he believes he can do better than him.

It's just that he is just an assistant and is not qualified to perform on stage. A slightly larger magic prop was not passed by his hands, but was inspected and repaired by a more professional person, but he also knew how it worked.

That magic prop was expensive, and he couldn't afford it. But having "done" in this industry for many years, he knows all about magic in general.

The most important thing about close-up magic is technique.

His fingers were slender and his nails were short, but anyone who saw them would think that their owners were clean. At this moment, these hands are like joyful beating piano keys, without sound, but extremely rhythmic.

Two one-dollar coins staggered back and forth in an orderly manner between the slender fingers of the left hand, without overlapping or colliding.

A thumb-sized red pom-pom stopped on his right hand, not beating, but moving slowly about a centimeter from his finger, as if he was being held up by something.

The face of the broken cocoon is slightly thin, but it is not the kind that looks fleshless. The bridge of the nose is very straight and straight, and the lips are a little tight, as if I have encountered an incomprehensible difficulty.

The hair was jet black and thick, and a faint light shining through the window of the room took on a yellowish and white hue in the dark hair. The hair was obliquely covered, covering half of the forehead, and only the pair of black eyes that looked like deep pools revealed a slight regret.

His technique is not bad, faster and more skillful than the hands of some magicians. Machine magic used to be a traditional prop, but now most of them are using chips.

He has several of these chips at home.

There is a big table in the living room of about ten square meters, which is not much and very clean. Even the commonly used ferrochrome was coiled and put aside.

Several hexagon wrenches of various sizes and some screwing knives were neatly inserted in an old holster, and several props discarded by the magician were also collected by him and placed neatly in the corner of the living room.

Originally, after these magic props were damaged and difficult to repair, they would be destroyed to prevent them from being used by peers or other interested people. He smuggled it back.

Diodes, transistors, ICs, and resistors of different ohms are classified and placed in different small drawers.

He hadn't read many books, and he had learned these things on the job later, and he basically knew the role of most of the components on each chip.

For those who are not clear, and no one teaches them, especially magicians, he can only check professional books by himself.

In the past, he used to hear a magician talk about the origins and allusions of magic, then hypnosis, and then about special functions.

Listening to them, these things are actually related to magic, but the requirements of magic are simpler, the heart, eyes, hands, and props can be cooperated, and hypnotism and special functions are close to the level of psychology and brain waves, which are more advanced.

He also read books on hypnosis and special functions, and also checked a lot of related information, but they only said some theoretical things very superficially.

This is the same as reading martial arts cheats, if there is no practical operation in pure theory, you can't learn anything. And he has only touched half of the threshold of magic, let alone wants to know more about the special functions of a higher level.

The special function was just a legend, he had never seen it at all, only seen it in movies and television. Although there are reports on the Internet, it is a long time ago.

Because the magician doesn't have a show tomorrow, he doesn't have anything to do. After what happened just now, the drowsiness has long since vanished.

Breaking the cocoon, he sighed, got up, turned on the computer, and boarded the magic forum websites.

This website, called the Legend Magic Forum, is a professional website where magic enthusiasts and professional magicians gather, in which you can see all kinds of Chinese and foreign magic videos, such as techniques, psychology, technology, equipment, etc., can be found here.

Of course, for professional magicians, most of the magic tricks here can be deciphered, but even if someone deciphers these professional magic, it will only prompt one or two keywords, and will not decrypt the whole process.

Because, this is a taboo in the magic world!

Therefore, the vast majority of magic, especially relatively high-end magic, will not be decrypted, otherwise, the decryptor will not be able to mix in the industry.

In this magic forum, there is also a benefit, that is, all magicians can pay for points to ask questions, as long as someone can answer, they can get points for the corresponding question.

Don't underestimate the points here, here, the points can be exchanged for the equivalent value of RMB or the corresponding magic props, and this kind of magic props are all made by this website and will not flow to the market.

The website does this to increase the popularity of the website and to provide a platform for junior magicians or magic enthusiasts to communicate with each other.

The website also buys magic, as long as it is a magic trick that has not been performed outside and is good, the website will buy it, and the price ranges from a few hundred to hundreds of thousands.

However, almost all of the people on this site are magic enthusiasts, magic enthusiasts, and junior magicians, and almost no senior magicians come up, let alone any big magicians.

It's not that high-level magicians disdain to go to such sites, but because they don't help them at all. Only once a quarter, the magic tasting is likely to arouse the interest of a few high-level magicians, and maybe they can see the magic tricks that make their eyes shine, even if they don't buy them, they can refer to them, and they basically don't set foot here.

Therefore, in order to attract popularity, the website will also invite senior magicians to answer questions from magic enthusiasts or junior magicians from time to time.

Looking at the questions displayed on the computer screen scrolling from time to time, I always feel a sense of powerlessness when I break the cocoon. He's just a magician's assistant, and he's a junior magician's assistant, and most of the questions on it are beyond the level of his exposure.

Originally, magic is not a job that can be done by opportunistic tricks, it requires years or decades of study and years of practice, not to mention, he only wants to develop in the direction of close-up magic, and the practice time needs to be several times longer than that of equipment magic and technological magic.

The equipment category is performed with cleverly designed mechanisms, equipment, and props, and the science and technology category is performed based on natural science knowledge such as chemistry and physics.

This kind of magic trick is done with the help of external objects, as long as you have money to buy props and have professional training, most of them can be done.

There is no money to break the cocoon, so he can only learn close-up magic tricks, which are mainly based on manual techniques and must be practiced diligently in order to perform.
