ice emperor

With a rough plan in mind on how to complete this achievement task, An Yi no longer rejected it because of its 'sudden' nature.

Moreover, after researching this mission, he found that ignoring the most abominable system punishment, the final reward can be described as quite good.In the process of completing the task, not only can he exercise his ability to arrange and control the program, but it can also help him determine the interpretation style he is good at.

You know, figure skating is known as the most beautiful sport. If you want to achieve good competition results, you can't blindly stack the difficulty of movements.

When performing programs on the ice and completing various technical movements, music must also be combined to show the athletes' understanding of the skating program.The status of technology and art is almost equally important. If any aspect is weak, it is impossible to go long in this project.

After pondering for a moment, he quickly went through the athletes in his previous life who had strong skills but very poor artistic expression.An Yi found that among this group of people, Chinese athletes are particularly prominent.

It was also at this moment that he suddenly remembered a report from his previous life.

The content is that when a Chinese men’s singles athlete skates tango, if it is not because of one or two tango signature moves, no one will be able to tell that he is skating tango.

This directly led to the fact that even though the technical difficulty he completed during the skating process was very high, another decisive factor in the competition performance-the program content score was so low that people could not look directly at it.It formed the most stark contrast with the top-ranked technical score, which seriously affected the athlete's final results.

Shaking his head and pressing his heart to sigh, An Yi forced himself to ignore the memory of some keyboard warriors and commentators who said grapes were sour when they couldn't eat grapes. .I temporarily let go of this problem and re-examined myself, and found that there are still many areas that I need to strengthen.

The character attribute panel of the system clearly records his skating [-], footwork [-], rotation [-], jumping [-], and artistic expression [-].

Compared with the flexibility value of [-] points, it is obviously a little unbalanced.He had better be able to increase the first three values ​​by more than [-] points in the near future, otherwise, even if he is stronger than his peers, it cannot deny the fact that his skills are not comprehensive, and it can even be said that he is deformed.

At [-]:[-], good friend Johnny Wassenberg skated the free skating program again after a short break, and continued to be picked up by the conscientious head coach James Joyce. When Cindy Celaya's family came to pick her up, she said goodbye to them and left the ice rink in a ride with Cindy's family.

As for Joyce, he also planned to leave at first, but when he saw another student standing on the ice rink after exercising his joints, he decided not to treat the two students equally.

Throughout the whole day today, he was almost busy with matters related to the Johnny Youth Competition. After dinner, he returned to the ice rink and guided the kid for more than an hour.Now it's time to make up for another child. He can't let himself ignore him just because this child is very independent and hardworking, and he never needs to be supervised during training.

"Louis, what are you going to practice?"

"Continue to get familiar with quadruple jumps, or deepen the memory of four weeks and three weeks? Boy, although your talent in this sport is indeed amazing. But I still want to say that the technical difficulty you set for yourself now has already It is far beyond what your actual age should have. Quadruple jumps are best practiced when you are older."

After taking off the holsters of the skates under his feet, James Joyce stepped on the ice rink again to skate out and came to another disciple of his.

He said that out of good intentions.

It's like he knows that the youth group can participate in the competition at the age of 13, but he always insists that the disciples must be 14 years old to sign up.As their head coach, he has always felt that he should not only be responsible for the technical state of the two students, but also pay attention to their physical health and mental growth.

13 and 14 years old, it seems that there is only one year difference, but boys at this stage have differences in mental, physical, and spiritual states, and every month can be sure to be different from the previous month.

The reason why he set the rule for the two disciples that they can only participate in the youth group competition at the age of 14 is to consider their physical development and to wait for their minds to become more mature.

At least he will not be easily praised, questioned, slandered, or influenced by the outside world, because all kinds of similar things will turn a promising child into thinking that he hates figure skating, fears it, and can't wait to escape from it. I saw a lot at that time.Of course, he didn't want such an avoidable thing to happen to his disciples again.

"Louis, I understand your competitive spirit at this age, but I have to remind you..."

"Can you wait, Joyce? I know what you're worried about. In fact, I don't want to do this. Every time I fall, I will get more bruises on my body. But I have...reasons to do this."

After all, he was not just a child. An Yi thought about it a little bit, and soon understood what his head coach was thinking.

"Joyce, one thing you may have forgotten is that I'm turning 14 this year. Do you understand what that means? Exactly! A few months later, yes, after watching Johnny play, I'm going back home."

? ? ! !

Hearing An Yi's words suddenly, James Joyce's heart skipped a beat, thinking of this question that he had been subconsciously avoiding before.

Yes, he did know about it.

It was explained when the child's parents handed him over to him.

The main reason why I always forget before is the nationality of the child's mother.He always believed that this child would not return to that mysterious oriental country, and would always change his nationality before joining this country he was very familiar with.

Think about how many years he lived in this country, and how many years he lived in that country?

In terms of the degree of recognition, it is obvious that we should agree with this place more.

Especially considering the kid's athletic talent, he was even more reluctant to let him leave here.

Canada has not had a world champion men's single skater for many years.He always thought that his two disciples would become double insurance, but he didn't expect that now...

"Must it be, Louis? You know, you could have had another choice. Your mother—"

"No, Joyce, that can only be the worst. Besides, I don't want it to turn out that way."

Shaking his head and not letting Joyce finish his sentence, An Yi interrupted his persuasion, paused for a moment, looked directly into the eyes of the man in front of him and continued.

"Besides, the reason why I chose to return to China is not only because of the yearning in my heart, but also because of my plans for my future."

Having said that, the corners of his mouth turned upward as soon as his voice turned, and the expression on his face was a little sly and philistine.

"It's not that I underestimate Canada's domestic resources, Joyce. But it is indeed inferior to China's vast land and rich resources. I don't want to have to worry about training costs after I slip out of the results. As a person who has experienced it, you should know it well, the Canadian government How much is the economic subsidy for figure skaters? Is there [-]%? On this issue, I can only say that although the policies of the two countries have their own advantages and disadvantages, I personally hate to care about money. .It is the best choice to go back to China and join the national team. I cannot change my mind until this road is completely dead."

Speechless, this is James Joyce's reaction after listening to his disciples.

He smiled wryly, couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, reached out and pinched the boy's cheek in front of him, admitting that what he said made sense.

As a former Canadian men's figure skating legend, no one knows more about the sport and its domestic development than him.

In terms of the influence of this sport among the people, there is no comparison, and Canada definitely wins.

In terms of the degree of development of this sport in China, there is also no comparison, and Canada wins.

However, once the above two points are ignored and compared with others, such as the future development prospects, the resources that may be developed, the potential influence of the sport itself, and the results that athletes may reap after the sport is developed, the two countries will be Not on one level at all.

You know, it is a superpower with a population of more than one billion people, and it has paid more and more attention to ice and snow sports in recent years.Even if you fail to achieve good results in some projects for the time being, qualitative changes will surely occur over time.Women's singles and pairs skating have already seen significant improvements, but what about men's singles?Maybe, it's not too far away...

Withdrawing the fingers pinched on the soft flesh of the disciple's cheek, Joyce stared at the boy in front of him meaningfully, feeling in his heart that he is a little devil, and he is indeed a genius with amazing talents in both academics and sports.

Eager to improve your technical strength?

possible!

But more estimates are to use this method after returning to China to determine their proper status as soon as possible.

Hate haggling over money?

Hehehe, he didn't believe that with such a large potential market and such a huge population base in that country, he would still worry about training funds after the athletes' achievements and attention were paid attention to.

Like Canada, where the state subsidizes [-]% of the fee a year, and the rest is funded by players through sponsorship, etc., it is simply impossible to happen.Once the athletes have been selected and joined the system, even if some places, such as participating in commercial performances, will be affected, they will definitely outperform athletes from most countries in other aspects.He has listened to the child's mother all these years, showing off how she was treated as a coach in China.

"Okay boy, you managed to convince me, your coach is here, I wish you all the best in advance. So next, let's go back to the beginning of the topic, you plan to... no, it should mean that you Before returning to China, what are your plans for the last few months? Practice skating or focus on footwork? Although you are indeed much better than Johnny in this part, there is still room for improvement."

"Is this?"

Seeing that Joyce gave up trying to persuade him after hearing his plan, An Yi breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself, "Finally, I don't have to make excuses for my weird behavior anymore", and at the same time expressed his thoughts.

"If you have practiced the second quadruple jump, does it count as a short program?"

"You know Joyce, after watching Johnny's Swan Lake just now, my heart has been greatly touched. I can't bear it physically and mentally, and I am eager to try. I am eager to see if I can put This program slides better."

"..."

Touched, impatient, eager to try?

Although I don't know your real thoughts, my ears are not deaf.How could it not be heard, the dissatisfaction and gnashing of teeth in your words.There is also that feeling of wanting to tear something into pieces.

Seeing his little disciple drop these words and slide off on the ice, James Joyce could hardly control his expression, and almost rolled his eyes.

He didn't know who provoked his little disciple, but judging from the current situation, the impact was quite positive.

Are you going to practice the second quadruple jump and make up a short program before returning to China?

It has to be said that this has already made him look forward to it.

He didn't even think about whether his genius disciple would fail. He just thought about when he would finish it, and how far he could slide the programmed program after he finished it.

Swish!

Swah——
