Profile




Christopher Cheong (Zhang Jie Qi) 
is Malaysia's youngest professional performing artiste mentalist & magician currently residing in the Petaling Jaya, Malaysia.

His interest in magic started off during his early childhood days. It happened when his family took him for a few magic shows. On his 8th year old birthday, his family bought him a magic kit set from Toys ‘R Us and that is where his foundation was set upon.

A few years after the vested interest has been instilled in his life, coincidence brought a group of magicians to his school and performed a few magic tricks that left a mark on his life like no other. Seeing magic happen before his very eyes further inspired him to learn the tricks of the trade and to improve as a better magician.
 

AND that was only the beginning,

late in 2007; Chris Cheong joined The Magic Annexe (Malaysia Premier Magic Club). This proved to be a stepping-stone in which he learnt to hone his skills, perfect his performing capabilities, and build his always-growing confidence as a performer.

With that as a basis, he decided to come out with Magical Ztudio, the Magic Supplying Company; this move stunned many, as it was not expected. Magical Ztudio brought upon a lot of heavy criticism, criticisms that surface were about age, experience, and capability in competing and providing the necessary results from which Magical Ztudio was expected to do. Later in 2008, Magical Ztudio is known as the largest magic supplying in Asia Pacific. Well set that aside now, Magical Ztudio is no longer in operation of supplying.
No matter what obstacles that faced him, the love for Art of Magic has never left his heart.

He  specializes in the field of stage mentalism, and close-up magic. With his ever-growing ‘Chris Humor’ and calm personality, he creates a unique combination of mentalism and magic that leaves a distinct memory in people’s lives.

Knowing when to make people laugh, creating the perfect setting for the event, making it memorable, these are just a few of the things that he creates when performing. Magic makes the difference in every soul; the difference is there to see. After all most things are beyond beliefs until you experience it for yourself.


He have met and performed for over ten thousands of government and corporates leaders,minister and many international artiste and reknown people. Have spoken and made special appearances in countless of  forums and seminar around Asia pacific.
