ice emperor

Thinking about various near-term and future possibilities in my heart, the group returned to the hotel after ten o'clock in the evening, took a shower and changed into relatively formal clothes, rushed to the hotel banquet hall, and began to participate in the thank-you dinner for this World Youth Championship .

According to An Yi's opinion, such a schedule seems too hasty.

But thinking about it, I found it quite interesting.

Athletes participating in the World Youth Championships are generally underage. Even if they participated in the thank-you dinner, it seems that there is no need for them to eat, chat and drink, including the social activities necessary for adults.

Therefore, it is natural that the dinner time is cut in half directly. The specific process is condensed into, isu International Skating Federation officials, Edmonton World Youth Championships in Canada, and officials of the organizing committee gave a thank you speech.Invite the top three athletes in each individual event to come on stage, and present them with souvenirs from sponsors outside the competition.

Both in terms of quantity and 'sincerity', in An Yi's view, they far surpassed those he knew in his previous life.Before he actually participated in this session, it was really hard to imagine that after a World Youth Championship, he not only won a medal, a bonus of [-] US dollars, but also a bunch of things such as branded sportswear suits, high-end skates, Skin care kits, well-known watches, etc., there are many gifts from merchants sponsoring this competition.

you say!

you say!

With such a reality in front of him, how could he hold back the spirit of complaining in his heart?

Compared with the ISU in the previous world, the ISU in this world is definitely a real mother.

In the era before he came here in the last world, the prize money for the champion of the senior World Championships was only [-] US dollars, and the prize money for the champion of the Grand Prix sub-station was just over [-] US dollars. Even the prize money of this world youth group competition was not comparable.

It’s no wonder that athletes in the last world often choose 'I want money' and 'rich man' when they arrange programs and select songs. Slide music.

After comparing secretly, in the face of the huge gap, he habitually uttered a few words. After the master of ceremonies at the banquet read his name, An Yi stood on the stage to receive the prize and took a group photo as a souvenir, and made a wave of advertisements for the sponsors. Go back to the banquet table and sit down.

At 11:30, the dinner came to an end. After eating and drinking enough, he said he was tired, but his body was very honest. Johnny, who kept shuttling in the banquet hall, said hello and returned to the room.

When he entered the bedroom, he accidentally discovered that An Zexian, who was still rubbing the bed, didn't say anything. In his heart, no matter how unexpected his father's behavior was, it was understandable.

Standing in front of the bed, flamboyantly lying on the left side of the bed, An Zexian, who was leaning on the bed and reading a book, waited for him, lifted the gift bag in his hand and shook it, but in return he hummed softly, and said, "I don't know how to do this." Seeing the disgusted expression of such a broken thing, I'll send you away', An Yi was dumbfounded and had nothing to say.

Who made my father so rich?

No matter in the previous life or in this life, the amount of An Zexian's specific assets has always been a mystery.Most of the time, he is very low-key. He looks like an ordinary person who doesn't live in a villa and doesn't drive a luxury car.But some places can be high-profile. The expenses spent on entertainment and improving the quality of life in a year still make him feel unbelievable when he thinks about it now.

"Yo~ It turns out that the son who went out to see the big scene is back? Come on, come on, hurry up and tell your father who has never seen the world, let your father and I have a good time."

Reading books and waiting for his son to pass the time while being bored, at this moment, An Zexian, who finally saw his boy back, immediately regained his energy.

"By the way, son, Dad only remembered it when he saw the gift you brought back. You seem to have made money at the age of 14? Dad, do the math for you. The World Youth Championship reward is 30.00 US dollars. When the skating federation hits the Ice Association and transfers it to the national team, 2% of the training fee is deducted, how much is left? More than 8 dollars? Well, if you multiply it by 17... oh! It’s amazing, son! You come down from the competition , the prize money that the International Skating Federation gives you is as high as [-] to [-] RMB!"

The tone was exaggerated, and the voice was full of emotion. After An Zexian glanced at what he said, An Yi, who rolled his eyes at him, continued.

"How about it, brat, have you figured out how to spend the money after you get it? Dad can help you figure it out. Your mother uses 3 yuan in cosmetics every month. Your father and I are more pitiful. I don't smoke, and I drink some occasionally. Little wine doesn't cost much."

"Well... how about this, you pay for the custom-made suits for you yourself? You don't know, your kid grows up too fast, and you have to make so many suits every season, dad, I really don't know. Some—hey! Brat, are you so courageous that you dare to surprise your father? It seems that the experience last time still hasn’t taught you the lesson.”

Yin and Yang helped An Yi settle the score in a strange manner, and An Zexian's words were quite enjoyable.

Just as he was about to make persistent efforts, he suddenly saw his boy standing upright, jumping onto his lap with both legs, as if he wanted to strike first.But hehe, the facts will tell this child that he is still a bit too young.

After more than half a year of physical training, although this kid has made great progress in terms of strength and physical fitness.But ah, compared with him, the difference is not 01:30.

How many years has he practiced that way, and how many years has the brat practiced?

Just after learning something, I thought I was invincible and pouted, so of course I had to suppress and deal merciless blows like a storm!Otherwise, even if he doesn't take care of this bastard, one day someone in society will take care of him.

Because of An Zexian's constant stimulation, a war broke out between the father and son again.

The specific process, uh——

An Yi said that compared with the last time, this time he took the lead and took advantage.

But in the end, he still failed in the end, limited by his immature body of a minor.Let him be defeated after a while (15 seconds), and once again be ravaged by some old man who doesn't grow up.

On the other hand, An Zexian said that this is just the beginning, the training method he taught his kid half a year ago is just the beginning, and there will be more difficult days waiting for him in the future.Don't think that you are invincible because you can suppress a foreign young man around you, okay?He dared to say that even his godson surnamed Long was far better than his brat.

After laughing for a while, An Yi reaped another defeat, lying on the bed and soon fell asleep drowsily due to fatigue caused by exhaustion.

This scene made An Zexian on the other side of the bed feel a little distressed while being funny.I feel that even if this period of the World Youth Championship did not completely drain the physical energy that my son had previously stored, it still made his still developing body feel obviously tired.

But, no way.

If you want to get something, you have to pay. Which athlete who has achieved fame doesn't come here like this?

If possible, he doesn't want his precious child to work so hard, and really wants to tell him not to work so hard. Your father is an invisible rich man, and he doesn't need you to take care of him or work hard.

But every time he saw the child's yearning eyes, striving towards the ideal in his heart, these words... these words, he couldn't say them no matter what.

With a little exclamation, he sighed and closed his eyes and fell asleep. The night passed, and the time came to 1999:3 am on March 2, [-].

In the suite, An Yi got up from the bed under the urging of An Zexian, washed and took care of his personal hygiene, dragged the luggage that An Zexian had packed for him in advance, and went to the hotel lobby to meet with other members of the national team.

By the way, I said goodbye to Johnny who went downstairs to the restaurant to have breakfast, and took the plane back to Montreal at noon. We agreed on a date to see you again, and prepared to take the car to the airport to take the plane back to China.

There was also a small episode in the whole process, that is, before he left the hotel, the art director and choreography coach he met called him aside, and after taking a few full-body photos of him and hat-free photos, he didn’t Wang Hao has been stern-faced since he appeared, and his father An Zexian exudes an aura of not getting close to strangers all over his body.

He couldn't help but start to wonder, what is the relationship between these two and how did they meet.With such a big difference in personality, how could they become friends?

At nine o'clock sharp, we set off from the hotel by car.They boarded the plane at about twelve o'clock, and after flying for about eleven or twelve hours, at around two o'clock in the afternoon on March 99, 3, Beijing time, the group of them returned to China safely.

There were no flowers, no applause, except that when they left the airport, they caused some attention and discussion because of their neat clothes, everything seemed so quiet.Although it is inevitable to make people feel disappointed, this may be a direct reflection of the gap in popularity and influence between other events and the Olympic Games.

However, it doesn't matter if anyone welcomes them or not, as long as they know that their expedition to Edmonton, Canada, is a triumphant return.An Yi, representing the youth group of the national team, was unprecedented and a breakthrough!Won the gold medal in the men's figure skating event.

Waiting for them to return to the national team, although it will not lead to promotion and salary increase.It is inevitable to write down a document for praise and make a note on the credit book.An Yi, as the person who contributes the most, of course the harvest is also the greatest.Considering that he is the first athlete in China to win the world figure skating championship, not only can he receive a lot of bonuses from various departments, but if nothing else happens, he can also get the title of 'International Athlete' and related benefits .

Different people have different thoughts in their minds when they return from this expedition.

As for An Yi, he didn't have time to pay attention to these. He was studying the daily task of resuming release.

After experiencing the baptism of this World Youth Championship, when he once again faced the daily tasks that caused him a lot of headaches in the past, he felt very relaxed and nostalgic.Bored to the point of chatting with the system, full of inside and outside talk, daily tasks are difficult?Sorry, system, I misunderstood what you meant before.

Still the same sentence, no comparison, no harm, challenge missions, competition achievement missions, etc., although the rewards are generous, but the difficulty is abnormal, the requirements are demanding, and the daily missions that are released on a regular basis every day are compared with them At the time, it seemed that the latter was as good as the one given away?

Why did he often struggle with this kind of task that can be accomplished with a little effort, and even failed once, thinking about it now is really puzzling.Fifty Axel jumps with goe bonus points, it's not that difficult now that you think about it.

[-]% funny, [-]% nostalgic, there is a system to help adjust the time difference, the very energetic An Yi is very single, on a whim, regardless of the surprised eyes of An Zexian around him, pulling this amazing son who is in good health, this is how he loves figure skating Dad, took the special car that came to pick them up, and rushed to the training hall of the figure skating national team, wanting to hurry up and complete the newly released daily tasks.

Of course, he had another consideration.That is, the focus of training next season is the quadruple jump in the rear outer knot.

An Yi thought about whether to wait for a while and try it after finishing the daily tasks, to experience this jumping action that directly increases the difficulty by a large amount.Feel the technical mountain that has stumped countless figure skaters.

"Hey! Look! Let's see who is here?! Boys, why don't you hurry up and welcome the heroes!?"

All the way back to the national team's base from the capital airport, An Yi followed his father into the training hall while planning the training plan.A loud voice came from a coach who had a good relationship with An Zexian, and he was immediately surrounded by men and women training in the stadium.

Faced with this situation, what can he do?He is also very desperate.

My family would rather stand by and watch the fun, but my own father who doesn't come to rescue his son is simply unreliable.As a result, he could only giggle and giggle, being surrounded by a group of coaches enjoying the loving caress, and incidentally feeling the baptism of grateful eyes from his peers around him.

Believe him, this is definitely not an exaggeration, nor is it his illusion.

He is very sure, because he won the men's singles championship in this World Youth Championship, and the original hostility towards him in the national team has all subsided.

Not from understanding, but from the benefits brought by his World Youth Championship.

Think about the one spot before him, fighting for a life-and-death spot, and think about the two spots after him, the chances are doubled.

What can he say?Perhaps he can only sigh that his champion has won three places to participate in next year's World Youth Championship, and because of this year's championship, he does not have to compete with the athletes in the team for qualification.Those crap things that happened in private, at least no one would be uninterested and involve him to bother him.

After spending more than ten, twenty, ten minutes taking care of the interpersonal relationship and fully satisfying the enthusiasm of everyone in the team, An Yi finally got out of the sea of ​​suffering.

Move your joints, stretch your muscles, put on your skates, and slide on the ice.

His overabundant training enthusiasm once again made him an athlete of other people's family in the mouth of other coaches, and he was constantly set up as a model to teach his own training, who was used to wandering at the end of the year.

An Yi didn't care about this, it could be said that he was already numb, even if he heard it, he just ignored it.Concentrate on completing his daily tasks, fifty quadruple jumps and spins, seize all the time, and try to finish it within an hour, and then overcome the difficulty of the rear outer knot ring quadruple jump.

To be honest, even with the guarantee of the system, he was full of confidence in himself, but he already had a bad premonition in his heart.I always feel that the ice point on the back and the outside, and the quadruple jump outside the back and inside knot ring will make him suffer a lot in the future.

Turn around, take off, turn on the ice with one foot for eight circles, change foot and turn, and change posture to ensure that the number of cycles in each link is sufficient, and there is no repetition in body posture.

Once or twice, more than half an hour passed quickly. When An Yi stopped to rest after completing the No. 30 standard and quadruple jump, he unexpectedly found that his father, An Zexian, did not complete it in a hurry. Leave during daily tasks.Instead, he still stood outside the protective wall of the ice rink and waited for him. Even if Hu Zhenbang, the director of the ice and snow center, asked him for something, he hardly moved.

He stopped on the ice and observed from a distance for a while. He found that his father had a serious expression when talking to Hu Zhenbang.

I hope it has nothing to do with him... No, it must have nothing to do with him.

Although Hu Zhenbang has a high position and authority, he is usually nice and kind to him. Judging by his personality, he should not be the kind of person who likes to fight, treats his athletes as consumables, and throws them away when they are used up.

With a sigh of relief, he adjusted his breathing, suppressed some too practical and too dark thoughts in his mind, An Yi withdrew his gaze and continued to complete his task.

The time advanced for another half an hour, and he perfectly followed the plan and completed the daily task of resuming release.He turned around and stopped on the ice to confirm the situation near his dad. After seeing that no one else was disturbing him, he stepped on the ice and slid over quickly.

When he came to the sidelines and stopped, he put his hands on the half-person-high protective wall and carefully observed the expression on An Zexian's face. Unexpectedly, within a few seconds, there was a sudden weight on the top of his head and a pain in his cheek, and he got two shots from Daddy's caress.

It was also through this series of actions that he was sure that what Hu Zhenbang told his father just now had nothing to do with him.Even if it was relevant, it wouldn't be a bad thing.

"What are you looking at, brat? Your father and I don't have any flowers on my face."

Hu Zhenbang had just been driven away, and his emotions were a little unstable. As soon as An Zexian noticed his boy and observed his reaction secretly, he was immediately so angry that he rubbed a couple of hands to vent his depression before he said with a smile. .

"Are you done with practice? Let's go home after practice. Your mother is not in the team today, and she took her little apprentice out to be cool. Hey! Speaking of which, son, Dad just heard about the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, which is currently going west There is a concert in the urban music hall, are you interested? Dad can find someone to help you get a ticket, the location is definitely the best."

When getting along with his son, An Zexian always said whatever he wanted, and almost never beat around the bush.

An Yi is also used to getting along with such a father. After hearing his suggestion, he nodded first, confirming that he needs tickets for the concert.Immediately afterwards, he took off the sportswear jacket on his upper body, stuffed it into An Zexian's hand and slid away backwards, leaving his father standing there alone grinning at luck.

Sliding around the field, accelerating with the blade, he recalled in his mind the relevant technical points of the rear outer knot loop jump, and after a while, he slid back into it, crossed his legs, and was ready to start his first attempt.

Just look at him stepping on the skates under his feet, galloping like lightning on the ice, and slid out a long arc.With a crisp sound, the blade left two scratches that suddenly deepened on the ice.The whole person twisted suddenly, and was driven into the air by the force of inertia, one lap, two laps, three laps, three and a half laps——

When it was about to turn enough for the number of quadruple jumps in the rear outer knot ring, the axis of the body rotating in the air suddenly shifted and fell apart.It made him unable to control the angle of the ice when he descended. The moment his right skate touched the ice, his posture suddenly fell to the left, and he fell on the ice with a bang. face.

"An Yi!?"

The fall was so fast and sudden this time, An Zexian who was standing by the side of the ice rink did not expect it at all.

In his memory, this was the first time his son fell on the ice so hard!

Even when his son first came back to China, when he first came into contact with domestic training methods, and kept repeating quadruple jumps, this never happened.

This time...

It must be painful to fall so hard, right?

Will it, will it hurt?

No, no!

How could it be possible to get hurt? !

What is he thinking, the training method he taught his children is not vegetarian.

Training with that method, although it will not make people superhuman, but whether it is physical strength or muscle control, it will reach the limit that ordinary people can achieve.Although major injuries are unavoidable, minor injuries can be said to be almost extinct.So, there must be no problem, there must be no problem!

"install--"

"Dad, I, I'm fine."

Hearing An Zexian's call again, An Yi gritted his teeth and agreed in pain, trying to calm his father's emotions.

Shaking his head, he moved his right foot, and felt that although the back of his foot hurt a little, it shouldn't be a serious problem.Then he turned over and lay on the ice, and through the training video in the system, reviewed the relevant details of the jumping action just now, trying to find the key points that caused his failure.

After one or two minutes passed, when he studied the video several times, he felt that he had found the problem!First, the sliding speed before take-off, and second, the angle at which the legs cross and exert force at the moment of take-off.

The question is how to solve it?

Maybe he can try to increase the sliding speed, and try to set the ankle at a greater angle at the last moment of taking off with the blade, so as to ensure the height of the flight and the distance that the body is thrown by the inertia, so that he can have more space. of air time to complete the rotation.

By the way, it also allows me to have more opportunities to adjust my posture in the air, to ensure the angle when I slide out of the falling ice, and to increase the success rate of jumping as much as possible.

"An Yi, tell me if it hurts somewhere, don't hide it from Dad!"

Just as An Yi was summing up his gains and losses and trying to find a breakthrough in the problem, the light above his head suddenly dimmed, and An Zexian's heroic eyebrows and eyes appeared in his sight.

After being stunned for a moment, An Yi lay on the ice, looking at the worry in his father's eyes.The corners of his mouth curled up slowly uncontrollably, and he sighed 'that's great' in his heart.

Without saying a word, he stretched out his arms to let An Zexian pull him up, jumped up and down twice with a smile, and when he turned around and slid away, he cast a look of "don't underestimate your son", which made An Zexian He breathed a sigh of relief, which also attracted a burst of laughter and cursing.

The next moment, accompanied by this burst of laughter, he raised his skating speed to a whole new level.Press steps, turn around, and slide with your back, with your left foot in front and your right foot behind, and your legs are crossed and gradually retracted during sliding.

At the moment before the completion of the jump, the outer edges of the two skates were used at the same time to exert force, the body tilted to the right, but the ankle turned to the left hard.Amidst An Zexian's concerned expression not far away, he flew into the air and spun his body.For the second time, I launched a challenge to a new difficulty movement, the rear outer knot ring 4loop!
