ice emperor

Banquet, exchange.

Big lobster, salmon, chicken wrap, with macaroni.

A group of more than a dozen people set off at 06:30 in the evening, and chose a mid-range restaurant nearby to eat, and ate until around 25:[-]. During the nearly two-hour socializing process, it was not just "push a cup for a change" you come to me In the past, representatives from the Chinese side and the Canadian Meteor Ice Rink also successfully reached several agreements on the exchange arrangements for the next two weeks.

Of course, the Chinese representative and the Canadian representative are purely An Yi's personal complaints, and the two parties who have a good conversation and each takes what they need actually don't know.

However, even if they knew, they would probably only laugh and scold, and childish jokes would not be taken to heart.As for children, especially adolescent boys, it's completely understandable for them to be a little lively and active.

At 25:[-], the host and guest had a good time eating and drinking, and the group returned to the Meteor Skating Rink again.

According to common sense, An Yi was still thinking about whether his father and his mother, the nine people, should find a hotel to stay and rest.But I didn't expect that he didn't plan to leave at all, and settled in the guest room on the third floor of the ice rink, which had been idle for a long time, directly at the invitation of his mother.

That’s right, the ice rink is so big, the first floor is the real ice rink, office area, changing room, equipment training area, the second floor is the medical room, dance room, office, reserved for the ice rink coaches to rest, students , Teachers, the room for all kinds of training.

So of course, even if the entire third floor is taken up by An Yi and his grandfather, how much can they use?There must be a lot of vacant rooms, except for getting in and out when someone cleans them every week, almost no one uses them anymore.The most typical evidence of the seriousness of extravagance is that the boudoir of his mother Joanna Watts before her marriage is still kept by his grandfather until now.

"Hey Louis, are you... going to shoot something?"

As soon as he got back to the ice rink, he ran to the locker room to pack his things and prepare to go home.Before leaving, he took his girlfriend Cindy Celaya back to the infield, intending to say goodbye to his friend, but found that his friend was standing outside the protective wall, fiddling with a tripod, and fixed it on it. Professional DV camera.

He exchanged glances with his girlfriend, and was about to ask his good friend why he did this, when he moved his ears and heard the sound system of the ice rink start working, playing a piece of music he had never heard before.

The main melody seems to have some shadows of Swan Lake, but if you taste it carefully, it is very different from the original version of Swan Lake in terms of the atmosphere and deep meaning of the music.

Counting silently in his heart, after listening to it completely, he found that the total length of this piece was about two minutes and 40 seconds, which happened to be the skating time of a short program.So there is no doubt that this piece of music is very likely to be the slide music that his friend arranged a short program for himself.

"Louis, is this your short program slide music? I heard from you last month that you are arranging your first short program. Now that the music has been produced, has the program been—"

"Hey son. Daddy's here!"

Johnny thought for a moment, contacted all the things that happened recently, and was about to confirm again.There was a sound of footsteps coming from far to near, and An Zexian's voice cut in forcefully, attracting the three boys and girls to look back.

"Let Rang, Rang Rang, the training video or something, just leave it to Dad to shoot. Where is it your turn to worry about this matter?"

His shoulders sank and he was pushed away by someone. An Yi concentrated on identifying and found that his father was following... No, it should be said that his father brought a group of people over.

Looking at his father's expression again, he was confident, proud, and beaming, which made An Yi stunned for a moment, and when he figured it out and came back to his senses, he had no choice but to help his forehead with black lines all over his face.I can't wait to grab his dad by the collar of his clothes and question him. Didn't I tell him to come alone?Are you coming alone? !Help him shoot a training video, so that he can improve and adjust the composition of the program later, is it worth calling the entire national team over? !

Is Xuan'er crazy, or is he afraid that the world will not be chaotic?Or do you think that your son can withstand the pressure and won't perform abnormally under the scrutiny of so many people? !

All kinds of truths made him more and more angry, and the more he thought about it, the more he wanted to punch this middle-aged man who didn't look like his father at all, so that he could have a long memory.

After going through this incident, he must also remember the lesson. No matter what he wants to do in the future, he can ask anyone, but he can't ask his father!Maybe one day, he will make another mess like today.

With a cold snort, he turned around and left, leaving the camera on the tripod for An Zexian to fiddle with. An Yi nodded to the two friends and smiled back. A full slide-out, a short program of my own choreography.

But at this moment, An Zexian stopped him again. After he looked back, he raised his chin slightly and winked, silently cheering him on.

Apart from that, of course there are more purposes, which are to remind him to work hard, to strive for success, and to save face for his father.In front of colleagues and bosses, help him look good.

Regarding this, An Yi sneered, raised his eyebrows and rolled his eyes in disdain, thinking in his heart, he knew that this father's mind was not pure, and he had a little trick.The reason why he has such confidence in his son is probably because he asked Joyce about his daily training in private.

Otherwise, just based on the exchanges between their father and son on the phone in the past, you want him to have a lot of confidence in him?Sorry, his father An Zexian is an adult, how can he be so naive.

Thinking of all this, An Yi turned his attention to the head coach, and sure enough, he saw this former handsome Canadian guy with a kind smile on his face, an expression that said nothing.

Without further pondering, An Yi took off the holsters of the skates under his feet and stood on the ice rink. Accompanied by the looping background music, he slid at a constant speed and made several footworks. He crossed his arms and rotated his body on the ice. While warming up, he also It is convenient for his father to adjust the angle and focus when shooting.

Five or six minutes later, when An Zexian raised his hand to signal the camera to be on standby, he immediately finished his warm-up preparations, slid in front of Joyce, exchanged a few words with him, listened to his instructions, and nodded slightly from time to time.

He waited until the skating music being played came to an end before he raised his right fist and bumped into Joyce, with cheers from good friend Johnny Wassenberg and opposite-sex friend Cindy Celaya, Sliding to the center of the ice rink to stop and stand still.

"Hiss... this child."

I just slid to the field and stood still, posing in a ready position.A male representative from the national team glanced at the video feed from the camera, and couldn't help expressing his feelings for An Yi.

"Let me tell you, everyone, do you have this feeling? It's that this kid is less than 1.7 meters tall, but his body proportions look very slender? And his sense of coordination and integration with the ice rink. How should I put it?" ? By the way! It makes people feel very comfortable and pleasing to the eye at a glance?"

While talking, he didn't forget to make gestures, the man asked his colleagues with his eyes, and continued after seeing them nodding in agreement.

"This is a trait that rarely appears in our country's athletes. It is much stronger than that Canadian boy in the afternoon. In addition, there are his overall temperament and body movements. He is obviously wearing an ordinary white shirt and black long hair. Pants, black skates, just put on this opening pose, you don’t need to skate, I’m the referee who saw it, and I’m afraid I will give him a high impression in my heart first.”

Yes, just like the feeling of the representative who was speaking at this time, An Yi just stood in the middle of the ice rink and started skating, which attracted the attention of everyone around the ice rink.

There are many reasons for this, such as personal temperament, body posture, and the appeal to the audience from the inside out.

The most important thing is his innate aura. As long as he stands on the ice rink with full firepower, he will naturally attract the audience's full attention and unique aura.

As a former technical nerd, An Yi has lamented more than once in his previous life that some athletes just stand on the ice and make any action casually, and it is easier to win the favor of the audience and referees than some athletes who are incompatible with the ice. .

You can pretend that this kind of thing doesn't exist, but you can't deny that when some athletes stand on the ice, they will indeed feel top-heavy, with disproportionate limbs, big heads and narrow shoulders, and short legs that are less than one-third of their body length.

In contrast to another group of people.

Regardless of whether he skates well or badly, as soon as he gets on the court, he will first use his personal appearance to make a head start.This has nothing to do with the Appearance Association, it's purely the feeling that comes from seeing it for the first time.

More precisely, it should be that impression.Whether it is for ordinary spectators or on-site referees, it is all effective.Although on the surface it will not be counted into the total score after skating, in fact, a deep impression will affect the referee's favor and affect the applause and cheers of the audience.Either aspect is a factor that can substantially change the final scoring result.

Hold your hands high, and close your eyes.

Youyou let out a long breath, her eyelashes touched and parted, An Yi had a faint smile on her lips, she turned her neck slightly and looked down, touching the pure white ice under her feet.

Meanwhile, the background music ends and starts again, looping again.

He waved his arm lightly, took a deep breath, and slowly opened it, sliding out like a swan with fluttering wings on the ice.

I don't know why, but within one or two breaths, he has become one with the slide music, from his eyes to his expression and even his smile, they all fit perfectly with the music at this time.

Not to mention the footwork of his gliding, which is already completely in the beat of the gliding music, matching the ups and downs of the music, and becoming a part of the music.And his body movements!There is no need to say much at all, in the eyes of everyone around the ice rink, he is no longer a human being, but has directly transformed into a living swan.

"This……"

"My God! This kind of artistic expression and appeal?! It's simply unbelievable!"

He was dumbfounded and exclaimed in admiration.

Whether it was An Yi's two friends or the adults present, they all fixed their eyes on the figure skating on the ice rink at this moment.

Only Joyce, watching his protege perform, was still worried about his impending first jump.With his understanding of this disciple, he did not believe that this disciple would stop pursuing the difficulty of movements.

as predicted!

Just as James Joyce thought in his heart, when the sound of the xun was played to No. 30 seconds, the strings of the guqin vibrated for the first time.An Yi integrated his footwork into the music, slid into the movement with the outer edge of the right foot, and stretched his arms from spreading to retracting.

next moment--

He put his other foot on the ice, his legs were in a figure-eight shape, and he pulled them inward with a sudden force.

With a swish, like a feather without the slightest weight, he soared into the air in an instant and began to spin. He turned around in the air with his hands folded around his chest, and then landed on the ice with the rear outer edge of his right foot. While maintaining a smooth gliding posture, open your arms and lean over to take advantage of the situation.The eyes are slightly closed, the expression on the face is relaxed and comfortable, lazy and brisk, just like a bird flapping its wings, stirring up the clear water of the lake, playing for fun.
