'Saturday, December [-]th, A. M．At [-]:[-], thank you for continuing to lock in CBCSPORTS to watch the [-]/[-] season, ISU International Skating Union Grand Prix Finals Youth Group, Men's Single Free Skating Finals. '

'It's time for the ice before the final set of athletes, so let's have some interesting conversations.An hour ago, the Japanese local P. M． At [-]:[-], after the women's singles free skating competition, NHK TV station, which broadcast the final of the grand prix, inserted an exclusive video after an advertisement.After negotiation, we have obtained the right to broadcast the relevant video, and now we will bring you an unexpected performance. '

Canada, CBC, as the host's voice fell in the live broadcast room, the scene of the youth group finalists warming up at the backcourt immediately switched, and An Yi in sportswear appeared in the video.

In the camera, he bent down, took off the skate protector under his feet, stepped onto the ice rink, and slid to the center to stop.

Straight body, blue eyes looking directly at the northern protective wall, two arms naturally placed on both sides of the body, fingers clasped, neck slightly tilted to the right a few degrees, eyes closed and mouth corners raised, expression stayed on a melancholy smile .

The music is ringing.

He didn't move for five seconds, and opened his eyes for ten seconds. The smile on his face gradually deepened in the camera, the ethereal piano melody rose, and a strong sense of regret and loss rushed out of his eyes staring at something. Turned into substance, like a sharp sword inserted into the hearts of all those who saw this scene.

next second.

When the strings of the violin are pulled, a strong sense of the picture hits the face, and people with different life experiences see different stories.

Parting, reluctance, miss, regret... Thousands of words, all the good and bad, are shown through that smile.

chapped.

The ice skate kicked off and slid forward. When the time reached No.20, An Yi finally moved in five seconds. He raised his head, swung his arms and clasped his shoulders with his palms, pressed his step and turned his right foot to draw an arc, and slid to the ice rink with a swipe south side.

Look at his footwork.

After two consecutive one-foot turns from the front outer edge to the rear inner edge, keep the left foot rear inner edge sliding counterclockwise to the east side of the ice rink without moving.

Immediately afterwards, Zhunzhun grasped the end of the long tone of the violin to promote emotions, and dropped the ice blade on the right foot on the ice. The ankles of the feet are facing inward, and the ankles of the right foot are taking two steps outwards, jumping up with a crackling sound and carrying a handful of ice grains, raising both arms and clasping fingers together to start spinning.

look at that picture.

Light, elegant and effortless, like a wind-blown snowflake swirling in the air reflecting light.

One lap, two laps, three laps, four laps, the body lowered, and the outer edge of the right ice blade touched the front of the ice. He even had the leisure to adjust the angle of the left leg that was about to be opened in front of him, which directly affected his right foot in the future. In the stage of falling ice and skating out, the floating legs swung backward very calmly, which stretched the visual effect of the whole jumping action to the limit.

That kind of feeling can only be described as extremely elegant, and it is undoubtedly a model.

At this moment, countless people who have watched this video through CBCSPORTS and know something about figure skating can't help but sigh in their hearts. No matter who you are, as long as you want to learn the relevant technical movements of figure skating, you can refer to it on the TV screen. This man is right.

"Wow...Louis, Louis, Louis, should show Joe how he's doing on this practice skate."

"quadsalchow, the four-week jump that has stumped countless new generation athletes is performed by him. It can only be said that it is so perfect and beautiful that you can't find any flaws. Children, please learn his method and demand yourself according to his standards. This may be very It is difficult, but once you succeed, I promise, you will go to glory."

In the CBC live broadcast room, the host commented on the youth group competition, and unexpectedly met Joe Baker's old friend Tom Down. In the comment video, An Yi's voice couldn't hide his admiration, and he walked on the road of old friends uncontrollably, 360 There is no dead end to sing praises for An Yi.

Looking at An Yi in the picture again, after performing a quadruple jump in the back inner knot, he turned his right foot to the blade, accelerated his left foot to take a step, lowered his upper body, lifted his right leg and turned into a swallow-style skating naturally and smoothly.

When soaring all the way to the west side of the ice rink, straighten the body again and lift the floating foot of the right foot. The front outer edge of the left foot supporting the body turns to the rear inner edge.Executing an equally flawless triple axel with almost the same handling as the previous jump.

After that, the third technical action is the joint rotation of changing feet.The fourth technical action is a triple axel in which the legs are crossed and the rear outer edge of the right foot is used to take off.After the action, others slid to the southeast corner of the ice rink and stopped, and danced to the music to enter the next step to sublimate their emotions.

At this moment, through the camera firmly locked on him, the audience who were lucky enough to watch the performance once again witnessed the continuation of the melancholy smile at the beginning of the show.

At this moment, they watched the man on the ice with more powerlessness and less vitality in their eyes, and the smile on the tired face due to physical exertion was still the same smile, the feeling hidden under the skin, but a little more Heaviness and hesitation.

brush.

'...Remember Kosuke-kun, it is very difficult to interpret a story that impresses adults at the age of sixteen, but it is very simple to promote emotions through a few impressive details, guide the audience, and win the favor of the referees . '

In Osaka, Japan, in the hotel room where the athletes stayed, the live broadcast on the TV on the TV cabinet was transferred to the frontcourt. The final men’s singles competition of the youth group was about to start. The free skating music was played in a loop with headphones, and they continued to practice in front of a floor-to-ceiling mirror Kosuke Shimada, who was watching the free skating program, remembered again what An Yi had said to him early this morning.

'What is acting?Accumulate, comprehend, precipitate, tell.what should you doOne, set the emotional tone at the start of the free skating.Two, when performing two sets of step-step rests, reinforce that feeling with a movement or two.Third, when the game is about to end and your physical strength is in trouble, squeeze yourself, force yourself, and show your unyielding and stubbornness. '

An Yi's advice echoed in Kosuke Shimada's mind.

'As long as these three links are done well, your program content score will not be low. "

"Why? It's very simple. Think about it for yourself. Except for the opening, ending, and two sets of steps, the audience watching your game may go through eight sets of jumps and three sets of high-speed rotations. Have you seen any stories you performed? ?'

Snapped--

Thinking of this, the free skating music played in the ear canal entered the step-by-step arrangement stage. Kosuke Shimada looked directly at himself reflected in the mirror and raised his arms. He closed his eyelids tiredly and let out a long breath. His chest collapsed and his arms brushed against his cheeks. When the neck was lowered, he opened his eyes again, and a weak smile emerged.

He looked at himself in the mirror and imagined that he was exhausted and out of breath on the field.

He lowered his head, spread his hands, palms up, and stared at his eyes. His mind was inexplicably touched, and he didn't realize what kind of expression appeared on his face.

Weak, sudden, gentle, helpless, come and go quickly, like pieces of floating light flashing across the lake.

It is both a real existence and a false dream, and when he focused on identifying it carefully again, it broke up and scattered, forming a great contrast.

The expression reflected in the mirror is obviously ordinary and nothing special, but under the influence of the dream-like emotion just now, it gives people a stubborn feeling that the boy in the mirror is trying to calm down and pretend nothing happened. It hurts to see.

"..."

"The gap is too big, the gap in all aspects is really too big."

Local time in Osaka, at [-]:[-] on December [-]th, after rehearsing a set of free skating programs, Shimada Kosuke stared blankly at his tearful eyes in the mirror and muttered to himself.

"This gap is not the experience of being a coach, but the understanding of this sport. Coupled with the ultimate proficiency in various difficult technical movements, it is really easy to help students improve."

"Compared to him, the coaches in Japan are good at teaching skating, but the men's singles technique and quadruple jump is currently the end point. I'm sorry, but...it's time to speed up the pace of progress after entering the adult group."

Like a feeling, like a reason to convince himself, Kosuke Shimada took off his earphones after saying this, went to the bed and sat down to watch the youth group competition that had already started on the TV screen, frowning and thinking about it for a dozen times Minutes later, he finally picked up the phone on the bedside table, edited a message and sent it out.

At the same time, An Yi, who was also watching the live broadcast of the game in the hotel room, was enjoying the air-conditioning from An Zexian.An Yi, who knew what offended him, was in distress. For the first time, he felt that his father's temper was more difficult to deal with than a child's.

Think back to the experience of his return at four o'clock this morning.

Oh ~

He can only say that the father who is accused of children can't afford to offend even the son who is accused.

That cynicism, then you kid still knows to come back, I waited for you all night, why didn't you go back to the room with that brat to sleep with your naked eyes, it could drive him crazy.

The trouble made him want to kneel down in front of An Zexian and say to his old man then and even now -

Father, dear father.

You are really thinking too much.
