[Rebirth] Red Sun

Although the sunshine in October has lacked the heat of midsummer, in this afternoon, the loud music in front of the open-air cafe, mixed with the vigorous enthusiasm of the crowd, made people return to the trance of summer for a moment. feel.

The dance competition between the two dance studios in front of the square has entered the fourth round, which is a competition between the teachers' team dance.

Although most of the crowd are laymen who don't know much about dancing, everyone is recording video with their mobile phones or cameras. Generally speaking, they mainly watch the excitement.But there are also some professionals who really understand dance or performance and body art. These people only occasionally comment a few words with people around them, and most of the laymen watching the excitement know it by heart.

According to the evaluation of professionals mixed in the crowd, after the first three rounds, the strengths of the two dance studios are basically not much different. Some wins in creativity, some wins in skills, and some wins in dance artistic conception. People, such as Gao Shun, are just like the Jianghu sects in martial arts novels, each with its own characteristics.

Halfway through the fourth round, a dance studio has already finished the performance. It is a jazz dance. This kind of dance is always easy to get started, but it is difficult to master. It is actually very suitable for ordinary occasions to dance this kind of dance to create a good atmosphere, but It is difficult to impress the audience further through music and dance, especially a group of laymen who do not know much about dance.

But the teachers of the dance studio just now had a different feeling in that dance, which made the onlookers applaud unconsciously.

Soon, the people in this dance studio left the stage one after another, and handed over the venue to the dance team on the other side.

More than a dozen young men and women dressed casually and not uniformly, with black cloth strips on one side of their arms, and white matte masks of laughing and cursing on their faces, and walked to the center of the venue.

As soon as the music sounded, the arms tied with the cloth strips of the crowd moved upwards and diagonally upwards. The black cloth strips floated up with the wind. The black cloth strips lined with the white masks, and the same music was matched with it, making the onlookers The crowd inexplicably felt a strange sense of desolation. The same song and one visual movement gave a completely different feeling. Obviously, they had never experienced it before. They all felt a little novel and couldn't help but concentrate.

The sound of the music is amplified dozens of times by the stereo, and the rhythm of the bang bang bang seems to be directly hitting the human eardrum and the human heart.

People's eyes were glued to the young men and women in the center of the arena. Every time they danced and jumped, the brilliance in everyone's eyes became more and more intense.

Just when the dance was at its climax, Gao Shun suddenly glanced sideways at Wang Yang beside him, and was not surprised to find that Wang Yang's whole mind was immersed in the dance performance, and there was a cluster of bright small flames in his eyes, and the whole body People are bathed in the afternoon sun, as if they have been covered with a layer of warm light.

When the dance was coming to an end, a tall young woman in a long linen dress who was standing not far from Gao Shun and Wang Yang suddenly said, "...these two dance studios are interesting!"

"What? Is there something tricky?" A few people next to her asked.

The young woman smiled and shook her head. The young woman is about 27 or [-] years old. Her facial features are not outstanding, but she has an indescribable charm on her body, which makes people feel very comfortable.With this smile, this temperament is even more obvious.She went on to say, "Where is there no such thing as tricky?"

"What did you see? You're half-talking. My heart, liver and lungs are like raising a cat. It's uncomfortable to scratch. Can you stop being a fool?"

The young woman glanced at her companion with a half-smile, and said: "In fact, the two dance troupes should have negotiated an agreement. You see, each dance seems to be using its own strengths, but it's so coincidental. Avoiding the overlap with the opponent makes it basically impossible for viewers to compare the two teams in the same dimension.

"Let's not talk about the first three rounds, let's talk about this fourth round. The same piece of music, the team performing now is obviously more focused on outlining the mood and concept of the whole dance, pursuing and complementing each other with the music, and dancing perfectly. Whether it is jazz, or how many movements are no longer jazz, is not so important to the dance itself. Although the former team is quite satisfactory, the grasp of the dance genre and the individual accomplishments of each dancer are quite satisfactory. , are no longer something that can be evaluated in a few words.”

The friend next to her nodded with a half understanding, "Anyway, what you mean is that the two teams deliberately avoided their intersection points. Since the two dance teams are all top-notch teams here, how could it be just right? The advantages of the two teams are what the other team wants to avoid. It can only be said that they did it on purpose."

The young woman nodded, "Almost, just like what the waiter said just now, the biggest meaning of this fight dance is not a 'fight' but a gimmick. I guess it should be the last round that there is really a 'fight' to watch."

"The last round?" The friend next to her obviously didn't understand.

Gao Shun on the side heard this, although he was confused about what the meaning was, but he basically figured out what he should understand.

The first four rounds were basically negotiated by the two dance teams, and the dancers used were all their internal students and teachers, and the show was more important than the competition.But the last round was to select professors on the spot, and there were too many uncontrollable factors. In order not to lose face and reputation, the two teams could only choose to go all out to participate.

While the young women were talking, the dance here was over, and the leaders of the two dance troupes both stepped out of the line.After each of them said a few polite words to the crowd, they went straight to the theme of the final round—choose the right candidate from the audience, teach on the spot, and then compete.

Some of the onlookers were enthusiastic and wanted to test whether they were talented, some were casually waiting to watch the excitement, and some even had a little foundation or skills, and were eager to try it because of the four-wheeled fighting dance, and wanted to go up and learn from each other.

The leaders of the two dance teams looked like falcons, and scanned the crowd sharply and quickly. Finally, the eyes of the two parties collided in the air. Even people who don't understand can finally see that this After four rounds of competition, the two teams finally had a taste of sparks at this moment.

The two teams had probably discussed it in advance. The leader of one of the teams stood up first and looked in several directions in the crowd, with a pensive expression on his face, as if he was making a difficult decision. Finally, he pointed his eyes firmly at Next to Gao Shun and Wang Yang, the young woman who had been speaking earlier said politely: "That beauty, our studio would like to invite you to come on stage to cooperate, do you think it's okay?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the leader of the other team standing next to him seemed to be facing a formidable enemy. Watching the development of the situation here, the surrounding audience also looked over.

Before the young woman opened her mouth, the companion beside her burst out laughing, and said bluntly: "Although I don't understand your dance, I think your vision and courage are enough."

The young woman smiled and glanced at her companion beside her, then slowly shook her head, "I'm sorry, I'm just here for a visit, and I don't intend to sign up for your dance studio. I think you can give such a good opportunity to me. People who join your team."

The leader who invited the young women by name did not hide his disappointment, while the leader of the other team breathed a sigh of relief. The onlookers were still a bit confused, but Gao Shun analyzed the situation clearly in an instant. .

It seems that in addition to having a unique vision for seeing people, the leaders of these two teams also have to bear the risk of failure in selecting candidates.

Just like just now, the two leaders could clearly see that the young woman standing next to them had dancing skills, and even a certain level, but before speaking, the leader who had the right to choose first obviously hesitated, hesitantly The reason may be the probability of evaluation failure.

But in the end, he still chose to give it a try, probably because there was something extraordinary about this young woman.It's just that laymen like them can't see it.

Thinking of this, Gao Shun quietly looked at the other party again. He was tall and thin, with a tall and straight figure, slender limbs, and an ordinary face. There was really nothing special about him.

However, Gao Shun still stored all the characteristics of this young woman in his brain. While Gao Shun was busy collecting information, the right to select candidates on the stage had already passed to another team, the one who had the priority to select human rights. After a failed pick, there are obviously no second chances.

With the failure of the previous team leader, this team leader immediately selected a tall and slender girl from the crowd and invited her to succeed.

Gao Shun glanced at her. The girl looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, and she was fine in every way, except that she was a bit serious when she walked in flat shoes.

The right to select people returned to the team leader who failed in the first selection. He took a deep look at the tall girl who walked to the opposite team, as if he was a little regretful. Maybe this girl was his first. Two chooses, but he has obviously missed it.

He took a deep breath, and picked a young man from the crowd. Although he looked thin, Gao Shun could see his muscular figure hidden under his clothes at a glance, and he should have been exercising regularly.But judging from the vigorousness of the muscles, it should not be strength training, and it should be a dancer in all likelihood.

Afterwards, the right to select candidates was rotated again. After three rounds, one of the teams had already selected three desirable on-site students, but the team leader who first selected the young women was hesitant about the last place.

The young woman watched for a while, and suddenly said: "If you have any doubts, how about I recommend someone to you?"

The other party looked over in surprise, and the surrounding audience were also a little surprised.

The team leader thought for a while, looked at his teammates, and then nodded at the young woman.

The young woman pointed at Wang Yang with her long hand.

Wang Yang's eyes widened in surprise. Seeing that she pointed out Wang Yang, the people on the stage couldn't help flashing some disappointment and surprise on their faces. Obviously, Wang Yang should not be in the quota he was entangled with.

It's no wonder that although Wang Yang practiced basic skills with his mother for many years when he was a child, after all, it has been too long, and he has almost forgotten everything that should be forgotten. Except for the slender limbs, there is basically no advantage.Furthermore, Gao Shun reckoned that there were a lot of onlookers, and there might not be any young women like them, but they were certainly much stronger than Wang Yang.

The young woman seemed to see the mentality of the team leader, and said with a smile: "Sometimes, don't just look at what is in front of you. The people you pick are either dancers themselves, or those who have studied for a year or two and have a solid foundation. But sometimes , what is truly amazing is always the untapped jade.”

Hearing this, the team leader shook his body. If he realized something, he turned to look at Wang Yang seriously and said, "Would you like to come up and try?"

Wang Yang blinked, turned to look at Gao Shun, Gao Shun smiled: "Go and try."

Wang Yang thought for a while, his eyes were full of starlight, shining brightly, and finally, he walked up.

Afterwards, their respective teams took the three new students selected to teach in the open space aside. Gao Shun raised his hand to check the time. He estimated that it would take more than half an hour, so he ordered another drink and gave it to the young woman by the way. Over there she and her companions refilled their drinks.

When the young woman received the drink, she looked over in surprise, and Gao Shun looked over seriously, pursing her lips to express her gratitude.

Because the young woman was not the first to have the idea of ​​asking Wang Yang to try.However, Gao Shun really didn't know anything about these things, and Wang Yang himself didn't know why, so he kept silent. Gao Shun could only see that Wang Yang was very interested in this fight, but he couldn't say anything. For Gao Shun, what the young woman said was undoubtedly a timely help.

Half an hour passed in a flash, and when the two teams each brought their three new students forward, the audience's expectations were obviously higher than the previous four rounds, and there was a faint feeling that they were participating in the competition.

The first performer was Wang Yang's opponent, a 2-minute piece of music, the three of them performed as a team, whether it was good or not, Gao Shun actually didn't quite understand it.But it is obvious that none of these three people is a beginner in the true sense. Although there are still differences in stature, judging from the difficult movements they have completed, they all have a solid foundation.

2 minutes passed in a blink of an eye. After the performance, the three of them had faint smiles on their faces, which showed that they were quite satisfied with their performance.The faces of the team they were in couldn't help but have joyful expressions on their faces.

On the other hand, the dance team that Wang Yang belongs to has a serious expression on their faces.

The three of Wang Yang came on stage. When the music first started, their movements were relatively simple. They should have chosen simple movements to take care of Wang Yang.These movements, compared with the more dazzling movements of the three people in front, are indeed much paler.

But Gao Shun still stared at Wang Yang without blinking his eyes.

Slowly, the movements of the three began to diverge, and the other two began to dance more complicated dance steps and movements, while Wang Yang's movements were still the simplest among the three.

But apart from the simplicity of the movements, there wasn't any feeling of dissatisfaction, as if Wang Yang had already danced these movements hundreds of times.

Suddenly, when the music reached a high point, the two people next to Wang Yang slid towards his knees. At that moment, Wang Yang twisted his waist and swung his hips, maximizing his body flexibility, half-jumped up, spun in mid-air, and stood firmly on his head On the knees of his two companions, he kicked his feet together and rolled over. The movements and dance steps suddenly escalated, becoming smoother and more cumbersome, and even faintly more difficult than the other two.

Gao Shun looked a little confused, but in his opinion, every time Wang Yang raised his legs and danced his arms, it was a suffocating beauty.

At this moment, Gao Shun heard the young woman say again: "It's really smart. For him, it's too difficult to learn a complete 2-minute dance in half an hour. This kind of learning is half, and the first half is to use some basic movements to deal with it." In the past, it not only ensured the integrity of the dance, but also had the effect of suppressing first and then raising."

When Gao Shun heard this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help curling up. Just in time, Wang Yang's dance took the final set and ended.

The audience burst into warm applause and cheers. Wang Yang slightly raised his eyebrows, his face was brightly colored, and his eyes were shining with moving light. Coupled with his already outstanding face, for a moment, he gave the audience a feeling of amazement.

Wang Yang happily ran towards Gao Shun, "Brother! I thought of something I like!"

Gao Shun couldn't help smiling, thinking, my children are really good.
