Chapter 126: Here's Something Better
The crayfish's worries were unnecessary, and just as the performance was about to start, Makihara came over and began to arrange today's performance.
This time, Makihara let the crayfish perform on stage by himself, and he was the first to appear. He has a certain purpose in arranging this, the basic magic skills of the crayfish are not bad, but the ability to play on the spot is relatively weak, and arranging her to perform on stage alone is to exercise her adaptability, which has a crucial role in determining her future draft results.
Sure enough, the crayfish was very surprised by this arrangement, and even a little flustered, while Muyuan pretended not to see all this, and did not give any guidance and interference. With no one else to help choose the right program, Crayfish had to improvise on her own today.
Standing at the edge of the stage, the crayfish was very nervous and kept looking back at Mu Yuan, but Mu Yuan only put on a poker face, neither comforting nor encouraging, so anxious that the sweat on her forehead came out. After some hesitation, Crayfish finally decided on the content of her performance, which was the program given to her by Muhara, and the program she performed in the audition - Sleeping Angel.
After about twenty minutes, the crayfish finished their performance, which was not a great success overall.
The bar was full of laughter, and it took three minutes for her show to gradually attract the attention of all the audience, and when someone in the audience recognized her, the atmosphere gradually became enthusiastic, and from this moment on, the crayfish slowly found its senses, and even improvised some new techniques and elements.
Amid applause and whistles, the crayfish walked off the stage and let out a long breath, at this time, her palms were already full of sweat.
"Not bad!" Long Ling'er praised on the side.
The crayfish pursed her lips, and she could see that the encouragement in Long Ling'er's words was a bit big.
"Master, did I smash the act?" The crayfish looked at Mu Yuan timidly, with a hint of grievance on his face.
"What do you think?" Makihara asked solemnly.
"Not good!" The crayfish shook her head.
"Why not?" Makihara asked.
"The performance was a bit stiff, I was so nervous!" The crayfish replied with a red face.
"Is that all?" Makihara asked.
The crayfish couldn't answer, and although the nervousness was real, the mistakes she showed were more than that.
"Follow me!" Makihara took the crayfish to a relatively quiet place and handed her a glass of water, "Do you know why I want you to perform alone today?" And I won't give you the slightest guidance! ”
"I know, it's for me!" The crayfish took a sip and replied listlessly, like a frosted eggplant.
Makihara nodded and said, "As a magic actor, you made a lot of mistakes tonight that you shouldn't have done. First, after entering the arena, I deliberately left just to see how you performed, and your performance disappointed me very much! As an actor, you must be familiar with your own stage and understand your audience, and you, from the moment you enter the bar, you are just chatting with your friends, you don't check the lighting, music, or the characteristics of the audience. Now, you go and observe the audience again! ”
Crayfish listened to Makihara's words and looked carefully into the bar, but she still couldn't see anything, because the lights in the bar were a little dim, and many people gathered together, and there was no way to analyze the audience.
"Don't make specific observations, but divide them in general!" "See, tonight's audience is about 70 percent male and 30 percent female, which is an advantage for you, a beautiful and lovely female magician, because you can attract their attention. Also, most of those women have male partners, and if you want to attract these people, you have to interrupt them with some flashy appearances. ”
Crayfish suddenly realized, she finally understood, remembering that the last time in the audition, Makihara made a simple analysis of the judges, and quickly adjusted her appearance, so that she was quickly recognized by the judges.
"Second, you also have a problem with the selection of programs!" Makihara said, "Do you know why my fire-chasing magic can cause such a reaction? The point is not just that this magic trick is relatively new, but because of the occasion! This is a bar, a place to vent passion, and a hot, magical, and exciting magic show can better stimulate the excitement of the audience and thus resonate with them. The magic of the sleeping angel is so poetic that it is more suitable for performing on a large stage or in a relatively artistic place, which is the main reason why the audience is not interested in watching your show in the first few minutes. ”
The crayfish nodded, so it was no wonder that the audience began to concentrate on her performance when she started throwing cards.
"Third, you don't have enough ability to grasp the overall rhythm of the show!" Makihara continued, "Shows are generally short-lived, and it's already a luxury to give you twenty minutes like wine, but on talent shows, your magic show is often only a few minutes. So, you have to capture the audience's curiosity at the beginning, otherwise it's hard to give them a sense of substitution later. And you just said hello to the audience and didn't warm up at all, which is a big mistake! ”
"Oh!" The crayfish only nodded, she was so depressed that she really wanted to find a place to cry.
"One day, though, you're doing pretty well!"
"What about that?" The crayfish finally raised her head and asked expectantly.
"It's just a temporary adjustment of your show and some content that the audience likes, which is very important, although you did it a little stiffly, but it's good to notice it!"
Long Ling'er on the side listened to Mu Yuan's explanation, and her two big eyes were rolling slightly, as if she was thinking about something.
"Think about what I just said, if you want to be a magician, you have to master these things!" Mu Yuan patted Long Ling'er's head and smiled, "Remember today's lesson, and the road to the draft can go a long way in the future!" ”
"Hmm!" The crayfish nodded, her eyes flickering, she finally understood Mu Yuan's good intentions.
"If you have time, maybe you will have a chance to go on stage again tonight, so prepare well!" Makihara encouraged.
Mu Yuan left the crayfish in the corner and got up to leave, but Long Ling'er chased after him, as if he had something to say to Mu Yuan.
"Impostor, I want to go on stage!"
"You?" Makihara asked curiously, "What are you doing on stage?" ”
"Perform, I want to perform magic!" Long Ling'er said angrily.
"Forget it, Brother Jie is my good friend, don't scare the guests away!" Makihara shook his head.
"You ......" Long Ling'er was a little angry.
At this moment, as soon as the door of the bar opened, several ruffian-looking people broke in, all of them walking crookedly, and the materials of their clothes were not bad, but none of them were neatly dressed, some were open-chested, some were on their shoulders, and some were carried in their hands. The leader was a young man in his twenties, with a small haircut, a golden chain around his neck, and a pair of big sunglasses on this big night.
"That's it?" Xiao Cuntou turned his head and asked the attendant next to him.
"Brother Ming, this is it!" The man next to him returned to the road.
"Oh!" Xiao Cuntou nodded, he didn't take off his sunglasses, but lowered his head slightly, his eyes stole from above the sunglasses, and looked around at the bar.
"Brother Ming, I'll go find a seat!" The little brother next to him said earnestly.
"No, brother, I've already found a seat!" Xiao Cuntou laughed lewdly twice, and walked straight towards Mu Yuan, but his target was not Mu Yuan, but crayfish.
Looking at the appearance of the small inch, Mu Yuan's brows couldn't help frowning.
"Even if you let me go on stage this time, I won't go!" Long Ling'er's signature evil smile emerged again, she leaned against the pillar next to her and put on a comfortable pose, "It's more fun!" ”
