Chapter 27 Disguise
The next morning.
Huang Xu and his party arrived near the exhibition hall early, waiting for the exhibition hall to open.
Today is the first day of the 2012 Tokyo Game Show (TGS). It's still half an hour before it opens, but the entrance is already crowded with people who want to go early.
As for Huang Xu and the others, they were sweating coldly as they looked at the crowded flow of people under the shade of a tree not far away.
They did not expect that there would be so many people here, and there would be so many people carrying various equipment for filming.
If it was just Huang Xu himself, then there would be no problem. If he was photographed, he would be photographed.
But in today's scene, especially the people crowded at the entrance, basically everyone has a camera, or even several cameras.
This put Huang Xu and the others in a bit of trouble.
I'm not worried about anything else, I'm mainly worried that Sunny and Kim Taeyeon will be recognized and posted online, which would be inappropriate.
Although it is not a secret that Sunny and Kim Taeyeon are game nerds, only people who are familiar with them will know about it.
This is not yet the era where celebrities can "have fun with the people" in later generations. Today's celebrities, especially idol stars, although not as much as they were ten years ago, need to maintain a sense of mystery.
However, there are still many brokerage companies that require idols to maintain their own personalities as much as possible, and they do not want their idols to run around.
Especially since their Japanese single will be released in a few days, I don’t want them to get any other news.
So when the two of them looked at those people, they were a little worried that they would be photographed and uploaded to the Internet. If they were recognized, it would be a bit troublesome.
And Huang Xu also knew their difficulties. After all, this time period was indeed quite embarrassing.
It would be okay if there were no activities in normal times, but now that they are about to release a song, it is a bit unreasonable to come to a place like this to visit a game exhibition.
Just when Huang Xu was worrying about how to bring the two of them to the exhibition safely, Sunny next to him suddenly patted him on the shoulder.
"Huang Xu, look at those COSERs in the passage."
Huang Xu followed Sunny's finger and saw cosplay enthusiasts gathered not far away.
"COSER? Do you want to?"
"Well, let's find someone with a mask. Can't we just wear this and go in?"
"Sister, won't you be more conspicuous if you go in like this? Besides, they have been taking pictures outside for the past two days and will not enter the exhibition."
"Ah, what should I do?"
Looking at the anxious two people, Huang Xu turned his brain crazily to help them think of a solution.
There are all kinds of cameras in this place, and people are taking pictures all the time. If it is just a normal disguise, it will be difficult to hide it.
After all, what they usually use most are sunglasses, scarves and hats, but these are not very practical in this place.
First of all, in order to better display the content inside the venue, the lighting here is not very bright, and it is not practical to wear sunglasses inside.
Hats are fine, but they can't hide their faces.
At this moment, Huang Xu suddenly remembered something and quickly asked the two of them:
"Do you know how to put on makeup?"
"Of course it will. What's wrong?"
"Then do you know how to change a person into another person?"
"Another look?"
"Well, it's through makeup technology." Huang Xu just remembered the videos of beauty bloggers he saw when he was watching short videos in his previous life. Among them, there is a type of blogger who uses his miraculous skills to With your makeup skills, you can transform yourself into another person.
It's a pity that he thought very well, but the two people in front of him couldn't do it, and they were stepped on by Sunny.
"Ah, are you talking about makeup? This is disguise."
"Can't you do it?"
"It can't be done. If it's what you said, then it should be a makeup artist with relatively high skills, or a special effects makeup artist who can possess this kind of skill."
Kim Taeyeon also gave an explanation at this time, and continued to explain their makeup and modeling abilities. It was just the most basic. Some more complex stage makeup requires professional makeup artists.
"Okay, what should we do now? We're all here, we have to go in."
"Forget it, just find out if you are discovered. The worst that can happen is that you will be quarreled by the company."
Huang Xu couldn't help but admire Sunny when he saw how he looked at death.
I admire her for being able to accept being quarreled by the company just for the sake of games.
Just when the three of them were resigned to their fate and prepared to be discovered as soon as they were discovered, Huang Xu suddenly saw the group of people in front of him and quickly grabbed the two of them.
"I thought of a way."
With that said, he pulled the two aside and began to explain his thoughts.
It turned out that among the group of people who had just walked past, he saw two people wearing masks.
This is only 2012, not 2022. Generally, no one would choose to wear a mask at this time.
But when Huang Xu saw that even the two wearing masks, no one paid attention here, he remembered a news article he had seen before, and at the same time he knew what to do.
Because the news he remembered mentioned that Japan has a very interesting custom. There are many people here who wear masks all year round even if they are not sick. They are called the Date Mask Clan.
And the number of this group of people will show an increasing trend with the arrival of winter influenza and pollen season.
So at this time, wearing a mask here is not a very noticeable thing.
So, as long as the sunny two wear masks and simply lower their skin color to make themselves less conspicuous, will they be able to reduce the chance of being discovered?
At the same time, Huang Xu asked the driver to take the three of them to a nearby small shopping mall and bought some clothes to change into.
The style of these clothes is very different from their previous styles, but it is similar to many people in the venue today.
With the combination of masks, black-rimmed glasses, baseball caps and skin tone reduction, Huang Xu didn't believe anyone could recognize them in the dark environment of the venue.
Sunny and Kim Taeyeon also felt excited when they looked at the ordinary figures in the mirror.
As a popular girl group that has been in the industry for five years, what they usually fear most when going out is being discovered and being watched.
The commonly used methods of disguise are hats, scarves and sunglasses, but today Huang Xu gave them a new idea, which is to use makeup and clothes to make themselves less conspicuous.
In this way, you can reduce the chance of being discovered when you go out to play.
Of course, these are all things for later. Now they are rushing to the venue to participate in the exhibition and see what games the major game manufacturers have!
I’m quite excited today, coming up with another chapter.
In addition, I hope all book friends will never keep books. Starting to keep books now can really kill people.
The starting point now is to pursue reading data. I hope that all book friends will turn the page after reading the update.
Thank you all!
