You could short out the new CPU and destroy it, do not do it.
That picture is very low quality but it looks like you bent about 6 pins on that socket, maybe more. You can try what farmerking posted, but TBH I would be worried to use a new CPU on that if you break one or don't get it perfect you can damage the new CPU. I would buy a new board.
 
Pin repair is very hard. I have done quite a few LGA boards, from just a single pin slightly off to multiple pins bent badly.

As long as they are on and have not stressed to the point of breaking off then using a plastic flat tip is the way to go but it takes a lot of time and patience, you cannot rush it.
 
Thanks all for the reply but what will happen if i just put a new cpu on it is it alot of risk that the pc dont work the mobo cost me 70$ it cheap but i want to know if it can work
