ice emperor

A prompt message from the everday system instantly stirred up waves, not only attracting the attention of An Yi and Johnny, but also arousing heated discussions among countless figure skating fans.

In just 5 minutes, the news about Ilya Ivanov's new season program was quickly spread to the whole world by the ice fans who followed him.Sports media from North America, Asia, and Europe followed up immediately after learning of this heavy news, wrote a piece of news about his two programs, marked his personal space address, and posted it on his own website. Did a free promotion for everyday without even realizing it.

At the same time, in the rest area of ​​the Meteor Club's new ice rink, people like An Yi and Johnny who were actively reminded by Ilya Ivanov @ have already been seriously watching the video of his new season program at this time, and they don't know yet. subsequent impact of the event.

Immersed in the atmosphere created by Ilya through the program, it is difficult to extricate myself. The reason is very simple. The man skating on the computer screen is not in the test skating but in the official competition.The aura and performance of the whole person are extremely attractive and focused, and it is almost easy for people to be captured by his performance willingly after seeing his video.

brush, scratch——

Skating on the ice, Ilya Ivanov, who was dressed in simple training clothes, moved with joy and slid towards the camera. The expression on his face was restrained and affectionate. He stared at the dark green eyes directly in front of him. An emotion that cannot be easily expressed.

He stopped amidst the sound of music, paused for three seconds on the north side of the ice rink, closed his eyes and raised his head to inhale, turned the ice blade under his feet, kicked the ice and slid three steps to the east side of the ice rink, and the outer edge of his right foot slid out a large clockwise arc The line brings up a string of ice flowers, and the left foot skates step on the piano accent, turn one turn and turn into a squatting rotation, and after nine turns, switch to the right foot to land on the ice to support the body, lift the left foot and left leg, and naturally connect to the body posture for seven turns The swallow-style rotation is similar to the letter 'T', and finally put down the floating foot to complete the whole movement with four rounds of upright rotation.

then.

Following the inertia of the end of the rotation, he retreated to the center of the ice rink with his back, turned the rear outer edge of his right foot to the front inner edge and changed his left foot to slide on the front outer edge, opened his arms and retracted them into his chest, sublimating the performance with his facial expressions.

At the same time, the ice blade skating on the left front and outside drew a '[-]', turned, changed the rear inner edge and entered the preparation for take-off. The inner edge of the right foot of the floating foot fell on the ice before, and the center of gravity of the body lowered the waist and legs to fly high into the air and began to rotate. After four laps Skate out on the ice with the outer edge of the right foot for one second, and the dancing movement of connecting limbs will end the jump.

The whole sequence of movements was light, dexterous, and extremely in line with the atmosphere of the music. An Yi looked as if he saw GOE, +[-], +[-], and +[-] sliding by on the computer screen.

All these feelings are definitely not exaggerated. He believes that once this person maintains the state in the video until the game, the score he predicted will definitely become a reality.

"Wow, this QuadSalchow is really well done. The visual effect is that the inner edge of the right foot is almost grazing the ice, and the whole person flies up."

"What about Louis, this guy is in such a good state during the season preparation period, will it be even more terrifying in the official game? Nonono, don't, I really really don't want to lose to him again."

The video continued to play, and as Ilya Ivanov made the second technical move and jumped around in the inner knot ring, Johnny, who was sitting on a chair watching the video, let out a tangled groan and stopped his voice.

Following his voice, a smile flashed across An Yi's face.

Thinking in his mind, he really should find a mirror to let this guy see his expression at the moment. The two completely different expressions in his eyes and face are simply a classic portrayal of inconsistency.

but……

There is one thing these two guys are right.

The competitive state of the Russian veteran in the video is really astonishing, and the execution of the quadruple jump in the rear inner knot ring can definitely be filled without any surprises.

All signs seem to remind him that this critical season will be more difficult than he imagined.

He wants to defend the title, and the opponent wants to realize his dream and retire brilliantly.No!etc.To be precise, it wasn't just this person, there was another person he couldn't take lightly.

Thoughts were raging, and he took a deep look at Johnny who was sitting half a meter away. An Yi turned his attention to the video again, studying Ilya Ivanov's program content and action arrangement.

One minute, two minutes, halfway through the skating, and the show ended. He looked at the platinum-haired man in the video and skated the entire program without any mistakes, dedicating the peak performance since his comeback.

Inexplicably, a sense of urgency came to him, prompting him to focus more on his short program and free skating, wondering how far he should go to continue his undefeated legend.

as well as.

If he encounters a critical juncture, whether he wants to bet on the success rate of Axel's quadruple jump is also the key.

After all, at the current stage of his execution of that jump, the probability of success and failure is equal to half.

After watching the whole video with these thoughts in my mind, I learned from the last line of subtitles that the short program of Ilya's new season is Schubert's "Serenade", and after the free skating continued to use the unfinished "Ave Maria" last season, An Yi Soon, he turned his energy to polishing the two programs of the season.

The general process went smoothly. After he and his father An Zexian conveyed the jumping difficulty requirements to Julian Pat, the two programs quickly took shape and entered the proficiency adjustment period.

It was also at this time that he realized with Julian's reminder that he and Johnny had unanimously decided to put the three sets of jumps in the short program in the second half of the program.The three people who are rivals each other have a piece of slide music from the Austrian composer Franz Schubert this season.

This is good, nothing to say, according to the consistent urgency of the media around the world, there is no doubt that when this news spreads, it will definitely attract a series of bloggers such as "Schubert's Civil War" and "Ave Maria Showdown" The headline of eyeballs has further heated up the enthusiasm for figure skating in the Olympic year.

Not to mention, the three players in the battle are ranked among the top three in the world, and they are currently recognized as the strongest in the men's singles circle. The scene of being chased by others is already foreseeable.

"...Alright Luis, one last question. May I ask how sure you are of the success of defending the title discussed by the outside world? Do you know..."

One week or two weeks, the time came to [-]:[-] pm on August [-]th. In the rest area on the side of the new ice rink of the Meteor Ice Club, reporters from China's CCTV[-] and Canada's CBC took turns to catch every An Yi , Johnny and Johnny during their training intervals to conduct interviews, and by the way, they filmed the daily training highlights of the two.

This is also impossible.

They are so popular that the time for the Winter Olympics is getting closer and closer.

The two of them, as the figure skating men's singles event in the Winter Olympics, are the two most likely to win the gold medal. Of course, they will be sought after. The situation in Russia and the European continent is similar.

Especially now that the selected songs of the three-person two-set program have been circulated, this kind of attention is even more extreme, active, and enthusiastic.

It's still the same old saying, who makes them bring benefits, who makes the ratings of the programs with them far higher than other programs?

In the face of the most direct economic interests, even the media representing the mouthpiece of the country cannot be exempt.

"Hey! Jason, HU, please let Louis go? It's his practice time."

Hearing the reporter's question, An Yi paused to fasten the straps of his skates. Just as he was thinking about how to answer this question, he suddenly heard the sound of a skate cutting across the ice and stopped not far away, followed by the familiar sound of strong ice. Ni's voice sounded.

"How about this, the three of us make a deal, and I will reveal to you a big news that absolutely no media knows. You arrange the interview time after training every afternoon."

"With the current practice, you can't do a good job of interviewing, and it will also affect the concentration of Louis and me during training. What do you think, is this adjustment okay?"

Lying on the protective wall that separated the rest area, he waved to An Yi to remind him that Joyce called him over. Johnny, who was wearing a black sportswear, watched An Yi get ready for work and watched him step into the ice rink Sliding to Joyce's side to start training, he turned his eyes and smiled at the eyes of the two TV reporters who had obviously agreed to his proposal.

Swear to God, if Joyce and the officials of the Canadian Figure Skating Association hadn't reminded him to try to cooperate with the work of the two TV stations, he would have been angry.

It is not only unaccustomed but also awkward to be chased and photographed every day to affect training. I believe that Louis, who is also troubled by this incident, must have the same thoughts as him.

"Johnny, big news, big news."

After An Yi, one of the targets of letting go, left, two media reporters from Canada and China stared at the brown-blond man lying on the protective wall, waiting for his revelation, hoping that the news he said would be as he said. The media knows.

Seriously, thinking about what they've been doing lately, they're sorry to themselves but they can't do anything about it.But it’s different now, if we can get the exclusive, if we can satisfy them and the two parties involved at one time, the high-level executives’ desire for hot news.

There is no doubt that the deal proposed by Johnny Wassenberg can be reached [-]%.

"Okay, okay, can I tell you now. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Resisting the urging from CBC reporter Jason, Johnny raised his hands and surrendered as if unable to parry his attack, propped up his body lying on the protective wall, cleared his throat, and looked directly at the several cameras that were close at hand The camera's expression was full and he said in a deep voice.

"Friends of the Canadian audience, friends of the audience in China, and friends of the audience all over the world, please listen well."

"I, Johnny Wassenberg, announce here that this season will be the last of my professional career. I will retire after my participation in the Winter Olympic Games in Turin next February. Ending my career In a sense, it's been a successful and exciting career as a figure skater."

"what?!!!"
