A t the 2009 CCTV Party of Spring Festival,Louis Liu made his debut to almost all Chinese people.He soon became world-famous because of his good magical skills.In the impressing show,he made the hostess’s diamond ring appear in an un-broken egg.Most people may think that is impossible.But magic and good preparation can really make it.

在2009年央视春节联欢晚会上，刘谦在几乎所有的中国人面前登台亮相。得利于他高超的魔术表演技术，他很快就闻名世界。在那次令人印象深刻的表演上，他使得女主持人的钻石戒指出现在一只完好的鸡蛋里。大多数人也许认为那是不可能的。但是借助于魔术和充足的准备是可以做到的。

Unlike many other famous magicians,Louis Liu never had professional training.He began to like magic after seeing a magical show in an apartment store when he was very young.He taught himself magic at the age of seven.And when he was only eight,he tried to perform self-taught magic in front of his classmates.

其他著名的魔术师不同的是刘谦从未受过专业训练。他喜欢魔术是从很小的时候在百货公司看到魔术表演后开始的。七岁的时候他就自学魔术。当他仅有八岁的时候他便在同学面前表演自学的魔术。

Louis Liu once was invited to Las Vegas and the Magic Castle in Hollywood.That is the first example in Taiwan.He is an outstanding magician who has won many awards.For example,he got a championship in the International Magic Convention in Osaka in 2000 and a silver medal in the Shanghai International Magic Festival in 2001.

刘谦曾受邀至拉斯维加斯及好莱坞魔术城堡。这在台湾还是首例。他是一个得过很多奖项的杰出魔术师。比如他获得过2000年大阪国际魔术大赛的冠军和2001年上海国际魔术节的银牌。
