Every magic trick consists of three parts,or acts.The first part is called "the pledge."The magician shows you something ordinary.The second act is called "the turn."The magician takes the ordinary something and makes it do something extraordinary.Now you're looking for the secret,but you won't find it because,of course,you're not really looking.You don't really want to know.You want to be fooled.But you wouldn't clap yet because making something disappear isn't enough.You have to bring it back.That's why every magic trick has a third act.The hardest part.The part we call "the prestige."
每一場魔術表演都有三個步驟,第一步是“以虛代實”,魔術師秀出一個真實的東西;第二步是“偷天換日”,魔術師利用這個普通的東西,做出令人嘆為觀止的表演,現(xiàn)在你很想找出秘訣,但是絕對找不到,因為你根本沒有真正在看,你并不是真的想知道,你想要被騙,但是你是不鼓掌,因為把東西變不見還不夠,你必須把它變回來,所以魔術都有第三個步驟,最難的部分,我們稱之為“化腐朽為神奇”。
