The seminar, entitled "World Magic, Magical World", was attended by renowned magicians from both domestic and international magic communities.

Following the seminar, an acrobatics and magic show commenced at the Rudong county sports center.

In the 2022 World Championship of Magic (WCM) organized by the International Federation of Magic Societies (FISM), the magic acts performed by two magicians in the troupe received the Most Original Act Award and Invention Award, becoming the first Chinese magicians to win the awards.
