ice emperor

Bass mist.

clap clap.

Guitar strings vibrated and Spanish castanets sounded.

In the new ice rink of the Meteor Ice Club, the re-arranged and re-created "Spanish Romance" echoed on the ice.

The slow and fast music, combined with Johnny Wassenberg, brings the wild and unrestrained body movements of Western men, showing the masculine charm.It easily attracted the attention of all the training people in the ice rink.

An Yi, who had just put on her training clothes and stepped on her skates, came to the infield area from the locker room was no exception.

Almost as soon as his eyes saw the figure of his friend and his ears heard the music with a strong sense of rhythm, his eyes were firmly locked on him.

Suddenly there is a feeling.

A year of injuries not only didn't delay the boy's growth, but also allowed him to grow up rapidly in the face of adversity, turning from a boy into a man.

Let his aura and style become more mature and complete while skating, and he can no longer find a trace of disobedience and innocence of a young man who deliberately pretends to be an adult.

"This song is not bad."

Listening and watching as they walked, and praised by the way, An Yi and An Zexian looked around for a while, and soon found James Joyce and Julian Patt outside the protective wall on the right side of the ice rink. He walked over to the two of them.

After greeting each other, An Zexian praised Joyce's counterattack appearance, then changed the topic and chatted about the program of Boys on Ice.They admired the short program music whose melody is "Spanish Romance", but the rhythm is very characteristic of "Spanish Matador March", which fits with the characteristics of Johnny Wasenberg's skating performance.

For his praise, Julian Parter was proud, and James Joyce simply accepted it, saying like most Westerners, that being awesome is awesome, and I am so strong.An Yi looked very happy, and lamented that after his head coach succeeded in losing weight initially, his mental state seemed to have maintained this rare excitement.

That confident, cheerful feeling seems to have returned to the state when he was a top figure skater when he was young.

"Okay, okay, thank you for your compliment, Ann. Now let's talk, my sweet little Louis, about the new season of the show."

Coordinating with An Zexian's compliment, he made a helpful expression and joked a little. James Joyce then changed the subject and talked with the three people in front of him about An Yi's preparations for the new season.

"Louise's short program, "bigmysecret" is very good. It fits his temperament very well, and it also fits the aesthetics of the audience and referees. The other one, the Chinese style free skate that Julian temporarily designated as "Wind and Cloud", oh , what can I say? I can only be thankful that this theme is very empty and suitable for filling in various storylines, as long as Louis can slide out the corresponding feeling, at least it will not affect his free skating performance too much.”

Speaking of this, he frowned in distress and shook his head in disapproval. James Joyce glanced at it, and the disciple who smiled bitterly against the eyes of himself, An Zexian, and Julian Patt sighed. With a sigh of relief, he endured what he originally wanted to warn him, pondered for a moment and continued.

"Promise my son, this is the first and last time. In the future, please keep in mind that unsuccessful athletes have their own careers, and every decision made by successful athletes affects thousands of people."

"Like your short program this time, it spread all over the world immediately after it was exposed. It not only sparked great discussions, but also had many other effects. Do you know the soundtrack album of "Thepiano"? Because of you, this The music album, which was originally only loved by movie fans, was put on the shelves again after being off the shelves for many years. And in just a few months, it sold more than 200 million copies."

"Wow, that's an exaggeration! Then should I ask the distributor for an endorsement fee? More than 200 million copies, such an old-fashioned movie, I think I have to..."

"Ann, that's not the point!"

Accidentally or intentionally, An Zexian interjected in amazement when Joyce talked about the benefit chain, and it was no surprise that he got a dissatisfied reminder from the former handsome Canadian guy who was transforming.

However, it was precisely because of An Zexian's interruption that Joyce suddenly remembered that the disciple in front of him was still a child.

Talking about money and influence with him now is not only too cruel and realistic, it may also affect the heart of the disciple who simply loves the sport of figure skating.

Well, well, Ann, I think I understand your painstaking efforts, so don't wink at me anymore.I also don't want my disciples to be too profit-seeking and too commercialized.

For things like money, as long as the competition results are guaranteed, there is no need to worry about his personal image as a disciple.There is only one reason why it hasn't erupted yet, all those who pay attention to his disciples are waiting.

Like the French businessmen they met at the World Championships in Nice, France last year, they were waiting for his disciples to create brilliance or fall into the sand in the Olympic Games a few months later.

"...Anyway, Louis, my good boy, whether you understand me or not, I hope you will remember that what you thought was 'your own business' is no longer yours alone."

"No matter what results your persistence brings you in the end this time, I hope you learn from experience and become more rational. Go now, start practicing on the ice, try your best to do your best, and don't leave regrets for yourself. "

Combining his previous experience and thinking about the careers of the two disciples, James Joyce exchanged glances with An Zexian and communicated silently. Finally, he encouraged An Yi and patted him on the shoulder to signal him to start today's work. train.

As the person concerned, although An Yi didn't know what Joyce and An Zexian had said, he still had complicated feelings in his heart.To describe it in one sentence, why is everyone not optimistic about his free skating program in the new season?

Yes Yes.

Of course he knows that figure skating originated in the West, and after more than a century of development, even though its influence in the Asian region is growing, the popularity and scoring referee seats are still dominated by the West.

Before he turned out with the help of "God's Scale", the status quo of the sport has always been dictated by Western forces.Even if the Eastern technical moves occasionally beat the Western ones, the gap in the art part can never be made up.

But now, as he passed all the way as a dark horse, undefeated and invincible since the beginning of his career, this situation seems to have changed for those who don't know the truth.

but!

Has it really changed?

Maybe, maybe not, he is not sure now, but he will know in the future.

As an athlete with good skills, great ambition, and eager for every victory, he doesn't want to cater blindly, but also wants to leave something that belongs to him and is unique in his career.

Thoughtful and ambitious, An Yi recalled why he persisted and why he insisted on going his own way. He pursed his lips and set foot on the ice rink with a sullen face.

On the other side of the ice, Johnny Wassenberg, who just finished his skating trip, saw his figure smiling and was about to slide over. His eyes fixed on the ice blade and he turned suddenly, bringing a wave of ice chips to stop on the spot.

There was hesitation on his face, he didn't know what's wrong with his brother, and whether he wanted to go over, An Yi saw that he was both angry and funny, and couldn't help curling his lips and complaining in his heart, is I so scary? Will eat you?

Just at this time, the main theme is a romantic song, and the "Spanish Romance" which absorbs the essence of bullfighting music in terms of rhythm is played again, making him raise his chest without thinking, raise his right hand to the top of his head, and let go of his arms He lifted his chin, turned his left hand to the left and his right hand to the top, followed the beat of the music, snapped his fingers, and launched his own revenge.

Just look at him--

Raising his eyebrows and corners of his mouth, Johnny smiled provocatively and looked at him in astonishment, kicked off the ice and turned around, skating a romantic song that he understood based on the short program he had seen before.

As for the content, it is naturally the romance of his bullfighter, being bullfighted, and the tragedy of Johnny Wassenberg.The aura exuded by the whole person was filled with the messages of 'make trouble' and 'hit me if you have the ability'.

"what the hell?!"

"Louis, you nasty bastard, I'm still worried about you! Didn't expect you to—rawr! What's your position? Do you really think I'm a bull in the bullring?! Stay there and don't move, look I'll pierce you with my horn!"

Bass mist.

clap clap.

In the strong music beat, An Yi swings his arms and hooks his hands, and arrogantly stares at his friend not far away. His left hand shakes the non-existent bullfighting cloth in front of him, and his right arm stretches backward. The whole person looks more and more visually He is tall and straight, handsome and handsome.

But Johnny Wassenberg didn't think so.

Like an enraged bull, he let out an 'angry' howl, stepped on the ice at a faster speed, and rushed towards An Yi, who was showing off his might.

The ice blade under his feet is habitually stepping on the beat of the background music, but he didn't realize that his excitement and An Yi's composure, in the eyes of the people around the ice rink, he really possessed all the qualities that a bullfighter and a bull fight in the bullring. features.

It, uh, he was in charge of chasing, and An Yi was in charge of running. During the period, he did a few brilliant figure skating moves from time to time, showing his calmness to everyone gracefully and calmly.

An Zexian, who was watching by the protective wall, was overjoyed, Joyce shook his head and held his forehead, and Julian Pat was mumbling something, but he didn't know what to say, until the music ended at 50 minutes and [-] seconds, An Yi stopped the performance and took a proactive pose Stopping, Johnny panted heavily and roared, rushed to his side and held him in his arms, and the two big boys ended this chase, which seemed quite interesting to outsiders.

"Louis! Are you running again?! Look! Didn't you get caught by me in the end?!"

Panting, with sweat on his brow.

The mighty bull, Mr. Johnny Wassenberg, wide-eyed, finally got his wish.

"...Ah, yes. I was caught by you."

Smiling and sighing, eyes drooping.

An Yi looked at his friend who was playing with him, the corners of his mouth curled up, his eyes were smiling, he stared at the boy in front of him, no, it should be said, he stared at the eyes of the man in front of him.

Seeing him staring at her, the muscles in his neck tightened, he didn't know what to think of, his face was red and his face was flustered, and he suddenly turned his head to the side.
