What do you think of magic and deception?

Let's talk about what magic is and what deception is. Magic, also known as illusion, commonly known as? Magic? In a narrow sense, it is defined as a performing art that uses special skills and equipment to create hallucinations and cognitive errors, so as to entertain the audience and make them feel incredible. In a broad sense, it refers to all kinds of activities that show funny and incredible art with professional skills or knowledge. To try to gain money or position by cunning means or fraud, especially by taking advantage of the credulity or prejudice of others. It can also be said that magic lies in pleasing people, and deception lies in taking money from people. In order to give you a deeper understanding of this aspect, I have collected the following materials for your reference and reading, hoping to help you.

The land of China twenty or thirty years ago? Fairy? Many generations, many? Qigong master? They perform special functions in universities, research institutes and government agencies and have received countless believers. Later, there was a Si Manan, who revealed that these special powers were just a dirty little magic trick, and fewer people gradually believed it. But people always forget. Back then? Qigong master? Several unknown people in the team have suddenly become angry in recent years. For example, it attracted many entrepreneurs and entertainment stars to worship three years ago and disappeared after being exposed? Taoist gods? Li Yi was a minor celebrity in those days. Qigong master? Li Jun Recently, Ma Yun, Zhao Wei and Jet Li visited Wang Lin in Pingxiang, Jiangxi. Master? , watch photos of its special functions and performance, and? Master? Several performance videos. This king? Master? Debut in the 1990 s, when there was no ranking. For more than ten years, Wang Lin has performed for visiting celebrities many times, which is nothing more than a few tricks circulated by the people, such as bringing snakes with empty pots, reviving broken snakes, bringing wine with empty cups, and inscriptions in the air. Those famous people enjoy it and believe it.

If a magician is present, it is easy to find his tricks. In fact, it is because Wang Lin's performance technique is too poor. If ordinary people pay more attention and slow down to analyze his performance video, it is not difficult to find its flaws. For example, he blew off the chopstick holder at the dinner table. After playing the video slowly, you can clearly see him holding the intact chopstick holder in his right hand and throwing it away quickly. He took another chopstick rack from his left hand and hid it under the table. This is just a simple switch.

Some tricks may be difficult for ordinary people to decipher how they operate, but it is not difficult to expose them. Because these performances are all used as a cover-up, it is necessary to cover people's sight with a prop and remove it. Master? The spell immediately failed. For example, what is Wang Lin's favorite performance? A snake in an empty basin? Pour a basin on the ground and take out some snakes from it. Wang Lin claimed that these snakes were caught by his idea of running to the mountains. In that case, why buckle a basin? Throw away the basin and let everyone see how the snake suddenly appeared. Isn't it clearer? Didn't the washbasin disappear, and so did his thoughts? Why didn't any star onlookers dare to open the basin to see what secrets were hidden below when Wang Lin was performing? Besides, he can only catch snakes in his mind, and nothing else? Dare to catch other animals at the scene?

See again? Broken snakes come back to life? The performance is to cut off the head of the snake with a kitchen knife, so that everyone can see the decapitation, and then dock with the snake body, wipe it clean with paper, and become a complete live snake. The prop that covers your eyes here is to hold the snake's palm. He only dared to let people see the decapitation, and never dared to let go of the other hand holding the snake, because that hand was holding a complete snake, and the decapitation was prepared in advance. If he is really capable, he will let the beheadings and dismembered bodies on the ground out for everyone to see clearly, and then take another look.

? Empty glass of wine? The audience can bring a unique transparent cup to show how he pours wine into it with his mind. If he insists on performing with his set of porcelain cups, fine, but don't? Wine? Or? Water? How about a glass of juice, tea, coke or red wine according to the temporary request? Can his mind only move white wine and water? Please don't cover the inscription with red cloth or put it under the coffee table. Just take out a piece of white paper and don't let him have any contact. Ask him to read the inscription in the air.

If it is a magic show, it is certainly unreasonable to ask for the destruction of its props on the spot. However, since Wang Lin denies that he is doing magic shows, but is doing stunts with his mind, then the viewer has the right not to follow his path and can put forward several simple requirements to verify its authenticity. Sadly, those celebrities who sit in sedan chairs follow the rules of watching magic shows and dare not act rashly, but firmly believe that they are not doing simple magic shows.

Magic itself is not a trick, but an art, which is not worth taking seriously. However, it is deceptive to describe magic performance as a special function, which is worth exposing. I met David in Las Vegas not long ago? Copperfield's magic performance is a kind of high-tech artistic enjoyment, although I often can't see how he operates it. Fortunately, he never claimed to have special powers, otherwise countless people would believe him. Didn't a cult leader from China claim to believe David when interviewed by American media? Can Copperfield really fly? And China, a dirty magician, pretending to be a master of psychic powers and performing some old tricks, can fool some celebrities around him. But these celebrities are basically entrepreneurs and entertainment stars, and there are many voices of questioning, criticizing and mocking. Unlike twenty or thirty years ago, even scientists in China have many people who believe in and study supernatural functions. Times have changed after all.

We should treat magic and deception correctly, which is too blind.
