At this moment, Mo Ming can guess what others are thinking without even thinking about it.
According to Mo Ming’s Nth Law of Pretending:
Be sure to clearly understand the emotions of those around you and make the most of them!
What does that mean
Let’s talk about “grasping the emotions of the people around you” first. Any pretense cannot be accomplished by one person alone (nonsense, how can you pretend to be pretentious on your own?), this requires cooperation!
According to Mo Ming’s experience in pretense, in order to complete a pretense, at least two parties are needed: the protagonist and the villain!
That is to say, the so-called "pretending party" and "the one being pretended to be", or it can also be called: "the person who slaps in the face" and the "person who is slapped in the face"!
This is the minimum condition for showing off!
Minimum conditions!
Minimum conditions!
(This place is the focus!!!)
Pretending to be a dick under such conditions is the most direct and straightforward, and the difficulty of pretending is very low. It is easy to pretend to take away a dick, and slap the other person in the face at the same time. There is no technical threshold.
But from an artistic point of view, the pretense under such conditions is very monotonous, the plot is thin, and there is no so-called "rhythm" problem.
how to say...
It just doesn't have that... that ups and downs feeling, and it can't give others any sense of surprise!
Moreover, what is the biggest problem in pretending to be cool under such conditions
The biggest problem is "aesthetic fatigue". When you first watch it, you may feel that this kind of straightforward show is fun to the end, but as time goes by, it will feel boring.
It's just like eating instant noodles. Maybe when you eat it for the first time, you think it tastes really good! So delicious! So exciting!
I even think that if a person can cook a bowl of hot braised beef noodles when he is hungry, he will be extremely happy!
but!
Note the "but"!
The first time he eats instant noodles, he may find it delicious. The second time he eats it, he may find it very satisfying. However, by the third time, he may feel that the taste begins to fade.
And by the fourth or fifth time, he will gradually feel that this thing is actually boring.
As for the following words, it goes without saying. I guess he won’t even look at instant noodles next time. If you force him to eat them, he will probably vomit...
Does this make sense
If you always act so straightforwardly, the people watching you pretending to be awesome will easily transition from "exclamation" to "no feeling", and finally to "sickness"...
Therefore, in the process of showing off, transitions and rhythm are necessary!
To put it bluntly, pretending is actually the same as telling stories, making movies, and making TV series. Rhythm and grace are necessary!
So, how to ensure the ups and downs of this plot
This requires the participation of a "third party"!
But note that this "third party" is also particular!
If you often watch people pretending to be cool, you will find that during the process of the protagonist pretending to be cool, there will be many "passers-by". The existence of these people is to badmouth the protagonist in various ways, suppress the protagonist in various ways, and then wait until the protagonist finally turns around and slaps him in the face. They will be surprised, exclaimed, surprised...
The purpose is to enhance the atmosphere and give the audience a sense of "turning over" and "slapping everyone in the face".
This is a common tactic used by habitual pretentious criminals. The first time you watch it, you may find it really enjoyable, but the second or third time you will find it uninteresting.
Many pretenders know how to use "passers-by" to show off, but few people know that these "passers-by" are actually divided into several categories!
According to Mo Ming's nearly 40 million years of pretentious experience, this "third party" can basically be divided into two and four categories!
The first type: It is a common third party. Basically, anyone who often watches others show off knows that this kind of existence is the most common third party. It is purely used by the protagonist to enhance the atmosphere. Basically, there is nothing else. significance.
This type is divided into three categories:
The first category is the followers or supporters of the villain.
This type of person is basically yelling from the beginning to the end, and their lines are only:
The villain is awesome!
The villain explodes!
The protagonist is trash!
(If you ask them to say one more word, they won’t be able to say it!)
Such people exist just for comparison:
Before the pretense ends, there are all kinds of bluster, all kinds of bragging, all kinds of pride!
After the pretense was over, I was slapped in the face in various ways, gnashed my teeth in various ways, dared to be angry but dared not speak...
Then, the second category is the real passers-by.
A group of people who didn't understand why they were summoned by the villain to watch the show were just like the group of idiots watching the fight below the martial arts stage.
Passer-by A, Passer-by B... They don't even have names, and they still sound like they are real...
The existence of this type of people is to assist the previous type of people to enhance the atmosphere and increase the sense of hierarchy. However, the treatment of this type of people is slightly better than the above type. They have 5 lines. In the process of showing off:
Ah, the protagonist is so weak, the protagonist is going to be finished this time!
Ah, the villain is so awesome, the protagonist is going to be doomed this time!
After the pretense is over:
Ah, the protagonist actually defeated the villain. It turns out that the protagonist is so awesome!
Ah, it turns out that the protagonist has hidden his trump card, he is really a talent!
Ah, the protagonist is so awesome, we can’t provoke him in the future!
As for the third category, there are people like Yan Ningxue who support the protagonist.
Why are people who support the protagonist also classified into this category
This is because although this type of people are on the protagonist's side, they are actually not essentially different from the previous two types.
The meaning of the existence of this type of people is to compare the previous two types of people!
Similar to the above two categories, this category basically talks bad about the protagonist throughout the whole process, but because they are on the side of the protagonist, their treatment is better than the previous two categories, with about 6 lines.
Before showing off:
The villain is so awesome, (protagonist) if you can't do it, just give up!
During the show-off process:
It’s over, the villain is so awesome, (the protagonist) will definitely lose!
It's over, at such a critical moment, the protagonist is in danger, I can't help but take action (actually what I really think in my heart is: I won't take action, I will see what you, the protagonist, can do to me!)!
After showing off:
Ah, it turns out that you, the protagonist, are so powerful!
Ah, it turns out that you, the protagonist, are hiding so deeply!
Ah, I feel so happy to see you are so awesome!
The average pretentious criminal only knows about the existence of the first and second categories. Those who are a little more clever will specially find a third category to set off.
However, there is another special "third party" that few people know about, and even fewer people use.
Just for one reason: this kind of "third party" is very difficult to control, and people who don't have enough pretense skills can't control it at all! (To be continued)
