Chapter 355: A Survival
The black veil covered Chen Ling's expression. If others could see through the veil, they would see that Chen Ling had almost written the words "I want to act" on his face, but his evasion made him even more excited. It aroused Wu Shaohua's self-confidence.
"What's wrong? Are you afraid??" Wu Shaohua snorted coldly, "That bad actor just got three points. If you are afraid that you can't win, just say so. Kowtow to me and apologize immediately. I can pretend that nothing happened."
"This...is mainly because the judges...are not in compliance with the rules, right?"
"Judges, what do you think?"
Wu Shaohua looked at the judges. The expressions of the six judges were a little subtle. They looked at each other... Logically speaking, contestants who have not signed up cannot perform on stage, but... Wu Shaohua gave too much. .
"Since we are all young people with dreams, let's give them a stage." Director Zhou said with a smile, "But we have agreed that the scores will not be included in the final selection. Everyone can just take a look."
Everyone's whispers became louder and louder.
"Brother Lin, what are you doing..." Li Qingshan on the side felt extremely anxious when he saw this scene.
The development of the matter was completely beyond Li Qingshan's expectations. He looked at Chen Ling in red in confusion and couldn't figure out why he deliberately provoked Wu Shaohua... Could it be to settle the injustice for himself?
"You can't agree, you must not agree...Brother Lin..." Li Qingshan prayed secretly in his heart.
Liu Qingyan, who was huddled in the corner, frowned unconsciously and looked at Chen Ling doubtfully, not knowing what she was thinking.
Under the eyes of everyone,
Chen Ling thought awkwardly for a moment, then nodded.
"...Then, let's put on a show!"
The clouds on Wu Shaohua's face immediately dissipated. He looked at Chen Ling with a sneer, walked off the stage, and made room for him, "Please?"
After speaking, he gave the six judges in the audience a look, and the latter immediately understood.
In full view of everyone, the figure in the red opera robe first walked to the wall and turned off the lights above the auditorium. Then, with everyone's puzzled eyes, he walked up the steps step by step, and finally stood Under the spotlight, face everyone with a smile.
Except for the theater in his mind, Chen Ling had not stood on the stage for a long time. Although the place was simple and small, at least there were living audiences instead of black figures with scarlet eyes... This gave him a long-lost feeling. Familiarity and comfort.
Seeing Chen Ling come on stage, Manager Zhou said in a deep voice:
"Are you an opera singer? Which role are you singing? Which script?"
"Me? I can't sing."
"...?"
Everyone's brows suddenly wrinkled. They looked at Chen Ling with a somewhat displeased expression. Just as they were about to say something, Chen Ling's voice sounded again:
"But, I can do other performances."
"What?"
Chen Ling raised the corners of her mouth slightly and spoke word by word:
"Become a living person."

"Transformed into a living person?" Wu Shaohua in the audience sneered, "It turned out to be a magician in a theatrical robe? It's just some deceptive trick. I want to see what you can do with such a boring performance. Flowers come.”
Everyone in the audience felt a little bored when they heard this. Magic performances are not new in the world of mortals. They had already studied them decades ago. They are boring tricks that can only deceive children.
The judges looked at each other and said calmly: "You can start."
Chen Ling nodded,
"I need a judge to cooperate with me... Director Zhou, is it convenient?"
Manager Zhou was slightly stunned. Although he was not interested in this performance, he saw that everyone else was looking at him. After hesitating for a moment, he got up and walked to the stage... He wanted to see what the man in red wanted to do. gimmick.
Manager Zhou stood next to Chen Ling and said impatiently, "Tell me, what next? How are you going to make me disappear?"
Chen Ling put a hand on his shoulder and pointed it directly under the stage. There were seven judges' seats facing him, two of which were empty. After that, there was a dark auditorium.
"Director Zhou, if you tell me a name, I can conjure up his person and his belongings. Do you believe it?"
As soon as these words came out, surprise appeared in everyone's eyes, and Manager Zhou was also stunned for a moment...
Even though they are all senior judges who have seen countless performances, this is the first time they have heard of this outrageous magic. The people around them are transformed into non-reappearing people. They have never heard of this. Summoning people by name, and also bringing personal belongings with them?
If this can really be done, it can only mean that Director Zhou is his trustee, but it is absolutely impossible for Director Zhou to be... This immediately aroused everyone's interest.
"Of course, what you are talking about must be a real person, and the distance cannot be too far." Chen Ling added.
"I don't believe it." Manager Zhou shook his head decisively.
"Say one."
Director Zhou's eyes swept forward, and a certain name suddenly popped into his mind, and he subconsciously said, "If you have the ability, you can conjure up Director Sun."
As soon as this sentence came out, the murmurs in the audience became louder. The expressions of several judges were a little subtle, looking at Chen Ling on the stage with half-smiles.
But Chen Ling was not surprised by this... In other words, everything was under his control.
Before traveling through time, Chen Ling had many contacts with top magic masters and learned a lot of magic, some of which are called "psychological magic", such as guessing numbers, guessing colors, or other predictive magic... This The principle of quasi-magic is actually very simple in the final analysis, it is psychological suggestion.
Before Chen Ling came on stage, she had turned off all the lights above the auditorium, so when looking down from the stage, the only bright spot was where the seven judges' seats were, and everything behind was pitch black, which would invisibly distract people. The subconscious is limited to the visible range in front of him, which is why Chen Ling put her hand on his shoulder and adjusted Supervisor Zhou's perspective to the center.
At the same time, among the seven judges, the absence of Director Sun impressed them the most. Whenever this name was mentioned or heard recently, it would be engraved in the subconscious. Chen Ling added, "The distance cannot be too far." "This condition further locks in the answer that Director Zhou is about to say.
On the surface, Chen Ling gave Supervisor Zhou the initiative, but in fact, from beginning to end, he only left one option for Supervisor Zhou... This is the wonder of "psychological magic".
After receiving Manager Zhou's answer, the corners of Chen Ling's mouth raised slightly... He glanced at the bottom of the stage and spoke slowly:
"Then...the magic begins."
