Chapter 126 The cards are here
Li Lekang's team quietly returned to Yanjing after the Spring Festival. This time, there was no big fanfare or any event announcements because it was no longer needed.
The only thing he has to do now is rehearsal on the venue. Yanjing, which had just ended its holiday, was still empty. After the migrant workers from all over the world left, the streets seemed deserted and lonely.
But the young pillars of the National Song and Dance Troupe cannot be greedy for festivals. They have to start work in a hurry early in the morning, and they have to prepare for a magic show.
In terms of dance skills, they are professional, even ceilings. But in terms of magic performance, Li Lekang is the ceiling. How can we combine the ceilings of two groups of people together?
This requires brains and experimentation. They don’t have much critical time. The date of this performance has been determined. If the votes are delayed, they may be scolded to death by fans. Li Lekang dared not do anything randomly.
So rehearse carefully and seize every minute and second.
The city's popularity is slowly recovering, and Li Lekang's highly anticipated performance is about to begin. The first Saturday night in early March, Wukesong Basketball Hall next to the East Fourth Ring Road was full of music and music.
There are fans from all over the country, and even around the world, gathered in Wukesong!
The entrance passage of the basketball court was unsurprisingly crowded with long queues. The men and women of all kinds were waiting in the team excitedly, either discussing or filming the grand occasion.
There are many fan corps of uniform costumes in the crowd, most of which are lively and active young faces, and many men and women are already in Hanfu, echoing the theme of "Flying" tonight.
The media staff who rushed over to the scene after hearing the news took a spectacular scene: Many Hanfu enthusiasts gathered here for enthusiastic exchanges and discussions. Those who didn’t know thought it was a Hanfu Festival or an animation event!
Although the weather is a bit cold at night, girls in strapless outfits don’t need to worry. Some people lick their coats on the scene. The goddess is satisfied and the dog is content. Everyone has a happy day!
However, the staff who maintained public order on the spot were busy. Even if they were experienced in dealing with large-scale events, they could not be relaxed today - because there were stars entering the VIP channel.
CNA has promoted this scene, and many well-known celebrities in China were invited to watch it, including pop stars, movie stars, singers, artists, etc.
They gathered in, but it was a trouble for the staff, and they did not tolerate any negligence. They also had to beware of fans who might be too excited and crossed the isolation belt.
The stars were full of enthusiasm and left their names on the sign-in wall! Liu Qian, a fellow traveler who was familiar to the audience, also came to observe with a strong interest in his peers!
In the eyes of ordinary people, Li Lekang's magic is completely unsolvable and is equivalent to special abilities; in the eyes of magicians, his magic is as crazy as it is!
This kind of genius performance that can both entertain the audience and "humiliate" the magician is very rare!
The Baglas effect (uncreated for 50 years) is the representative of this.
There are even rumors that Jay Chou is coming. His love for magic is well known. He has written many times in songs and has performed magic shows many times.
Li Lekang, who was able to impress European and American audiences in the field of magic and became famous in a white-dominated society, has many similarities with Zhou, who let Chinese music defeat Korean waves and go out of borders.
They are all top talents in the field and want to prove their character of being able to do it.
The audience is looking forward to witnessing the gathering of the two.
If he could come too, then this magic show was really full of stars.
Suddenly, cheers erupted in the auditorium lined up next to him!
The shouts went higher and higher, attracting more attention, because someone saw the fat man wearing a hat and a mask, whose figure and temperament and walking posture were the ones they were looking forward to!
He really came! Although he was very low-key, he hurried by under the escort of the bodyguards and staff. At the shouting sounds, he waved his hand and confirmed his identity.
This is definitely a surprise for many post-90s audiences on the scene!
You can see the world's top Chinese-style magic and the appearance of the Chinese music leader. The weight of this ticket is heavy and worth it!
Fei Lun's appearance caused a sensation as expected. His daimyo on the wall was even more like being focused on the temperature by the flash!
However, he himself was very low-key. After following the process, he hurriedly entered the venue and was taken to the front VIP position by the staff, which once again cheered the audience around him.
Wukesong Basketball Hall is not as empty as the stadium, and the basketball court itself is not big. Because of the compact layout of the basketball court, the front row audience is particularly dazzling.
Feilun was exposed to the focus of the vast audience. He received the attention ceremony with his celebrity friends around him. Occasionally, a group of people shouted their names on the scene.
Before Li Lekang's performance started, the first Jay Chou's "Mr. Magic" was played on the spot.
At the key point, many people could hum the rhythm at the scene. In a trance, they felt like he was here to hold a concert.
This is also a little cleverness of Li Lekang, of course in return - it can also be said that as a way to make friends, he wants to teach the other party a magic trick.
Li Lekang has not been playing magic all the time, because if you want to disguise magic as magic, you have to be familiar with the magic routines first, so he has mastered several unique skills these days.
The eyes returned to the lively scene, and now the songs of the guests are played in turn, and occasionally the interactions of fans make the waiting at the beginning of the show no longer boring.
The camera is fixed on the top of the basketball court. The camera keeps sweeping across the audience, highlighting the faces of celebrities, and giving foreign friends from afar some shots.
Those who came from abroad to watch the performance were all loyal fans, because the cost they had to pay was far higher than that of the locals, but they still couldn't resist Li Lekang's attraction.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the audience seats in the venue were gradually filled. The auditorium built around the basketball court could accommodate up to 18,000 people.
Compared to Li Lekang's 80,000 New York show, the scale is much different. He originally wanted to hold it in the Bird's Nest, but because the Bird's Nest show was too magical, it was really hard to explain it with magic.
He at least had to give industry insiders a reasonable guess, so the venue was completely closed on the top of his head, and more basketball courts could be arranged.
But even 18,000 people, it is a spectacular scene! Usually, the stars who perform superstars here will keep the audience at around 10,000, and it will be a bit difficult to manage if there are more.
For Li Lekang, the seats are just right and the failure to sell station tickets is based on safety considerations. In this way, many people still complained about them!
They felt that he could place the venue in a large stadium, in the Workers' Body, or in the Bird's Nest, so that more people could satisfy their wishes.
Li Lekang also wanted to make a grand and lively atmosphere, but for the sake of the effect and for the wonderful viewing, he had to consider reality and control the effect well.
The audience is almost full now.
The program production team is in place, and the multi-angle camera lens will record all this and select the right content as clips of the variety show.
Located in the backstage lounge, Li Lekang is making final preparations.
Compared to his previous performances, he was a little more nervous today.
Because he was in his hometown and was entrusted with high expectations, he could perform at will in the United States, but in China, he always wanted to be perfect, which made him nervous.
"You can handle it perfectly!"
"It's all done!"
Chapter completed!
