Early eight o'clock in the evening.
The dance is already halfway through.
One song... three songs... five songs...
Ever since he danced with Xie Huilan, Dong Xuebin has not been idle. First there was Hu Silian, then Luo Haiting, then a forty-year-old female cadre from the Civil Affairs Bureau, and then a thirty-year-old female cadre from the county party committee guest house. Female staff, and then a young girl from the county art troupe boldly tried to invite Dong Xuebin, and when he agreed, many lesbians from the art troupe also invited him to dance, playing seven or eight songs in a row, even if they were in good physical condition. Dong Xuebin was also very tired, and his forehead was sweating.
Dong Xuebin has always been very tolerant towards women, so he was embarrassed to refuse.
Everyone at the ball discovered that Director Dong was so popular.
Especially the older female cadres, why do they all seem to dance with Dong Xuebin
In fact, it’s not surprising. Not only is Dong Xuebin a legend in Yantai County, but his age gives him an advantage. He is surrounded by senior cadres in their forties or even fifties. Among the male cadres, Dong Xuebin is the youngest. He is still in his early twenties and is still full of energy, so compared to those old comrades who are older and have poor dancing skills, who doesn't like to dance with young people? It’s also pleasing to the eye.
Also popular is Luo Haiting. Firstly, because of her charming appearance and skillful dancing. Secondly, Luo Haiting will not refuse anyone who invites her. Therefore, instead of going to Xie Huilan and Hu Silian, she will not refuse The young cadre still chose Director Luo. Dong Xuebin is very satisfied. It seems that the comrades of China Merchants Bureau are still very effective. But Sister Luo, when will your passion for dancing be translated into work? Dong Xuebin saw Luo Haiting wearing heavy make-up and light makeup every day in the past two days. He wanted to criticize her, but he couldn't speak. Even though Luo Haiting's mind was not entirely on work, there was no problem in the office. , it’s hard for me to criticize myself.
"Xiao Dong!" someone called him.
Dong Xuebin looked sideways and saw Xie Huilan.
Xie Huilan smiled and waved to him, "Come on for a while, but wait until you are free, haha."
Dong Xuebin hurried over and said, "County Magistrate Xie, do you have any orders?"
"It's not easy to find you. I wanted to call you several times, but I saw you dancing just right on the dance floor so I didn't." Xie Huilan smiled and said, "That's right, the dance will be over in a while, and the finale is a group dance from the art troupe. , but Xiang and I discussed it and felt that it was not enough for the finale, not enough weight, and not enough to support the bottom line. So if you have prepared a magic trick, how about a group dance for all of us? ? If not, forget it, it’s just a temporary idea, haha.”
Dong Xuebin blinked and whispered: "Is this a good match for the dance performance of magic?"
"What's wrong? I think the atmosphere is very good."
"Ahem, I don't need to prepare my magic. I can come anytime, but...should I come?"
Xie Huilan looked at him, "I don't think there's anything wrong with showing more face in front of cadres, what do you think?"
"Okay." Dong Xuebin knew that this was definitely not Xie Huilan's idea, but since Sister Xie didn't say anything, he didn't care. Dong Xuebin's desire to express himself was sometimes very strong.
eight thirty.
The dance has come to an end.
As soon as the music stopped, Hu Silian walked onto the stage with a smile, picked up the microphone, and after speaking a few words on behalf of the county government, she smiled and said: "The following is the last piece of music. I invite Director Dong of the China Merchants Group to perform a magic show." After that, she left. took the stage and left the seat to Dong Xuebin. The music also started playing again.
Bang bang bang bang, the applause was very warm.
Many people were very interested when they heard it. Dong Xuebin's one-handed brick splitting on the Cadre Spring Festival evening left a deep impression on everyone.
After all, this dance is of course mainly about dancing. The magic show is just to adjust the atmosphere. The people dancing on the dance floor did not stop, they just looked over and moved back to leave a space while dancing. Over there, Several lesbians from the art troupe came up and danced under the small rostrum, setting off the atmosphere for Dong Xuebin. After knowing that this was the last song, some people who were sitting stood up and looked for dance partners. Even Xiang Daofa invited Hu Silian, and Hu Silian agreed with a smile. Ding Li over there also invited Luo Haiting to dance the last dance.
Dong Xuebin came on stage, holding some props that had just been prepared.
A very wide piece of cloth, a one-yuan coin, and a watercolor pen.
Holding the microphone, Dong Xuebin said with a smile: "Good evening everyone, I am honored to have the opportunity to perform a program for the opening of the dance. Because it was a temporary instruction from County Magistrate He Xie, I did not bring any props, so I simply made up some , just do a little magic." Looking at the people dancing on the dance floor and looking at him, Dong Xuebin picked up the one-dollar steel coin and held it up high, "This is a dollar, please look at the front and back. Isn’t it a problem? It’s issued uniformly by the state, it’s not a fake currency or a magic prop.”
Someone laughed underneath.
Looking down, Dong Xuebin said: "There are no leaders who are dancing. Is there anyone who can do me a little favor?"
Most people were on the dance floor. After a short silence, Zhao Xinglong walked over with a smile, "Shall I do it?"
"Thank you, County Magistrate Zhao." Dong Xuebin handed him the coin, "Please check the coin first. If there is no problem, there is a watercolor pen here. You can write something on it, anything." Zhao Xinglong took a look and saw that there was indeed no problem, so he picked up a pen and wrote the word "Zhao" on the front of the coin. The pen was very strong and very characteristic of his style. Dong Xuebin thanked him, raised the coin and showed it to everyone, "County Magistrate Zhao has already written the word Zhao on it. I believe this coin is unique in the world."
Everyone who was dancing slowed down their rhythm when they saw that the main event was coming.
Some people even stopped jumping and looked at the rostrum with concern, wanting to see what tricks Director Xiao Dong could come up with this time.
"This is the moment to witness the miracle."
Dong Xuebin placed the coin on the chairman's table, shook his hand, and covered it with the red cloth. With a touch of his hand, Dong Xuebin rubbed it on the red cloth, as if he was casting a spell. This was not the first time he had played with this hand, and he was very skilled. Seeing that everyone's interest was piqued, Dong Xuebin smiled slightly.
!
Time is frozen!
Dong Xuebin glanced at the people who were immobilized, opened the red cloth and took out the coins, got off the podium and walked to a person. After more than ten seconds, he walked back, stood at the original position and exhaled gently.
!
…
Time suddenly resumed!
Under everyone's gaze, Dong Xuebin on the stage suddenly smiled and patted the red cloth, "Ha!"
Everyone was staring at it, and Luo Haiting didn't even care about dancing, she kept her eyes open without blinking.
"It's done." Dong Xuebin was happy, slowly opened the red cloth, and shook it in mid-air, but the coins underneath were missing and could no longer be seen.
Well, the applause was sporadic and not very enthusiastic.
No way, this magic is not bad, it is actually far different from the one-handed brick splitting before. Those bricks were ten, and they disappeared in front of the eyes. The visual impact on people is undoubtedly great, but Now it's a coin, which is a bit disappointing. Bricks can't be hidden on the body, and they can't disappear out of thin air using the tricks everyone knows, so the magic of splitting bricks with one hand is beautiful. But when it comes to coins, you need to use a little more skill. It should be able to be hidden.
Dong Xuebin smiled and said, "Why is the response so bad? Haha, I haven't finished my magic trick yet."
"Huh?" Many people were stunned for a moment.
Dong Xuebin said: "Now is the time to show the miracle."
Everyone's appetite was once again whetted by Dong Xuebin.
Rubbing his hands, Dong Xuebin looked at Xiang Daofa on the dance floor, "Xiang, I'm sorry to bother you. Can you please look through the right pocket of your suit?"
Everyone looked around.
Xiang Daofa, who was still dancing, was slightly startled. He let go of Hu Silian's hand and put it into his pocket suspiciously. His eyebrows suddenly jumped. There was a cold touch on the palm of his hand. It was a coin, but the opening of his pocket had never been there before. If it doesn’t contain anything, when did it become extra? Taking out the things, Xiang Daofa lowered his head and looked at it in the light. He was stunned, immediately shook his head and smiled, and handed the coin to Hu Silian in front of him.
Hu Silian took it over and took a look, took a deep breath, and raised the steel ball with a wry smile.
Suddenly everyone saw the word on the front of the coin - it was the word "Zhao" written by Zhao Xinglong just now!
Shouts came one after another, and some of the young lesbians in the art troupe even covered their mouths.
What's going on?
Zhao Xinglong didn't believe it, so he immediately went over and looked at it again and again. Finally, he said helplessly to everyone: "It is indeed my calligraphy, and it is also the word on the coin just now. It can't be wrong." After saying that, he also took the lead in applauding. This magic trick It's really beautiful, I can't help but be convinced.
Many people were stunned. The rostrum was more than ten meters away from Xiang! Why did the coins that were on the table just now suddenly run into Xiang's pocket? And neither Xiang nor anyone else noticed at all? Damn it, how did it change? Dong Xuebin never left the podium for a moment! This is amazing! Of course, no one would guess that Dong Xuebin let him go after stopping time. Everyone was only surprised by Director Dong's superb magic skills!
Seeing everyone's reaction, Dong Xuebin knew that the magic was a great success, smiled slightly, and was about to leave the stage.
But at this time, a woman's voice suddenly sounded, "Ah..."
It was sent by Luo Haiting who was dancing with Ding Li.
Many people looked over, and Dong Xuebin also couldn't laugh or cry. He thought to himself, Sister Luo, your reaction is too slow, right? Exclaimed at this time? You are half a minute slower than others, eh, wait a minute. Dong Xuebin suddenly realized that something was wrong. Luo Haiting looked a little angry and stopped dancing. She took her left hand away from Ding Li's hand, gritted her teeth, turned around and walked off the dance floor. It was not because of magic that she cried out! RO
