Figure skating is more suitable for me to participate in the Olympics

After winning the gold medal at the World Championships for two consecutive years, although ice fans still believe in Team Zhang's combat effectiveness, and he is still the athlete who has broken the most world records in the world, his state also makes many people worry about it.

Zhang Jue's psychological quality is very good. Even if his physical condition is poor, he can perform well. He also has strong adaptability on the spot. Before the start of the season, he will simulate various possible unexpected situations and practice several sets of jumps in advance. plan, and make replacements at critical times.

But the point is also here, no matter how good my mental quality is, if my body can't keep up, it's useless.

He has already lost two World Championship gold medals due to injuries. Even if only athletes at the level of Teraoka Hayato and Ilya can defeat him, everyone obviously does not want the tragedy to repeat itself in the Olympics.

"I think Guan was so good in the United States back then? The originator of Chinese-American figure skaters, the model of the American dream, and Barbie dolls have all released new products based on her. She won six gold medals in the World Championships. As a result, she developed in the 94 Winter Olympics and developed in 98. In the Winter Olympics, her own injury hit the promotion of the talented girl, and the psychological pressure was too great in 02, and she collapsed in free skating, and finally she was only one Olympic gold short of the Grand Slam."

After a training session, Yang Zhiyuan gave Zhang Jue physical therapy, muttering: "This kind of career is miserable."

Zhang Jue shrugged: "Not everyone can have a flawless career. According to you, McQueen was short of one Olympic gold to get the Grand Slam. As a result, he made a mistake and missed the podium at the Vancouver Winter Olympics. Chee met me and Vasily again, and ended up with only one Olympic bronze medal."

"So you must not be like them. There are many people looking forward to you winning the gold medal!"

Yang Zhiyuan looked around, and whispered to Zhang Jue: "You also know that the Beijing-Zhangjiakou Winter Olympics is coming soon, and the higher authorities are much stricter on winter events than before, especially figure skating has risen significantly in this cycle, the national team may You have to receive at least four medals, among which men's singles, women's singles, and doubles all sit second to one, and you are the biggest gold medal winner."

Zhang Jue counted. If the indicator of four medals, the ice dance event can't be counted on, then... "The fourth medal is the team competition medal?"

Yang Zhiyuan nodded sadly.

Zhang Jue: "It's over. The team competition is based on overall strength. Min Shan, Guan Lin, and Huang Ying and I all have injuries. It is impossible to perform perfectly in the individual competition after the short program and free skating in the full-time team competition. At that time, we were at most one of the short program and free skating, and we couldn’t count on ice dancing.”

The brand of this group is probably not the most difficult to complete among the four indicators.

Hua Taishi and Sai Peng, who were also lying next to them for physical therapy, showed sad expressions when they heard the words.

"Captain, you have to believe that we won't hold you back."

"That's right, we still achieved results in the Kraton Club last year. Didn't you praise our skating progress a lot?"

Zhang Jue: "...I'm sorry, to me, athletes who can't make it to the top six in the world are not considered great. It's not that you are useless, but mainly because my vision is too high."

Everyone: As expected of Team Zhang, always shine with confidence.

The second station in Japan that Zhang Jue applied for is the fourth of the six races. Before Zhang Jue's competition, Ilya and Teraoka Hayato also won the gold medals in their first grand prix. They are all quite stable, only Hayato Teraoka had something wrong when he played against Kersen. Although the win was a win, the difference between the two was only 4 points.

At the beginning of the game, Zhang Jue dragged Qin Xuejun, who rarely worked overtime, to lie on the sofa and finish the game.

He frowned: "There is obviously a problem with the scoring in this round. Kersen's jump quality is not enough to get a goe at the same level as Hayato."

Moreover, the skating level of the two is clearly comparable, but Kersen's footwork goe is obviously higher than that of Teraoka Hayato, and this is the problem.

Fighting with them was Arthur Cohen, a young man who made an unprecedented six quadruple jumps in this year's program.

He even came close to it.

However, in the eyes of insiders, this program can be described as extremely empty. Except for the necessary footwork, the rest of the time is spent in skating and jumping. Performance points belong to the kind of highly utilitarian arrangement for better performance.

Figure skating is a competitive sport with artistic performance elements, but in this program there is obviously only technique, not art.

In contrast, the top three women's singles, Qingzi, Min Shan, and Katerina performed much more impressively. They also met without a match. Qingzi has maintained an unbeaten record since the b-level match , Min Shan is almost the same, only Katerina was in Russia, but because of 4s wrestling, she lost to her senior sister Sai Lina from the same country, but she still successfully entered the finals.

"Women's singles has already entered the era of quadruple jumps with half a foot. There is a 13-year-old women's singles under Vasily's hands, named Raisha. This year, he entered the youth group and completed a 4t in the first race. , most of the women's singles jumps are done in the youth group, and there are quite a few girls practicing quadruple jumps now, and when they advance to the group, Min Shan will face more competition."

Guan Lin said smoothly: "Women's singles are considered to be of the same generation after two years. Meng Xiaolei, Qin Meng and Laisha are the same age, so they are considered to be of the same generation."

Zhang Jue smiled wryly: "Don't mention it, Brother Shen and I have taken them to practice for four weeks now. Qin Meng has just reached the full circumference, and ended up with a fractured ankle. She is still undergoing treatment. I don't know if she can come back. Meng Xiaolei can also , but she can't act."

Junior Sister Meng's performance was tougher than radio gymnastics. The coaching staff and Zhang Jue didn't know what to do with her. In the end, they decided to use men's singles for the new season of the little girl.

Yang Zhiyuan patted Zhang Jue: "Change your position and lie down."

Zhang Jue did as he was told. He was still fingering his phone, looking at the newly released highlights of the quadruple jumps for the junior women's singles on Twitter. Except for Raisha, everyone else's quadruple jumps were a bit problematic.

For example, some people are obviously jumping 4t, but there is a big problem in the part of using the toe blade to touch the ice. Instead of touching the ice to take off, the whole person stomps on the ice. This is stepping on the blade. take off.

Some people rubbed more than half a circle on the ice before taking off, that is, turning their bodies in advance, referred to as stealing weeks.

The most powerful is the one who stepped on the blade and got up on Monday. That jump is really full of five poisons, and his eyes are very hot.

Zhang Jue sighed: "However, there are quite a few men's singles who have these problems."

Just like the quadruple jump technique was first developed by the men's singles, the stealing technique was also started on their side. Zhang Jue's eyes have been scorched for as many years as he has been in figure skating. For example, he once climbed to the third Russian player in the last cycle. Position, Vadim, who retired last year, is the case.

Yang Zhiyuan chuckled: "So the quality of the surroundings depends on the men's singles above the first-line level, and the girls from the same school as you and Vasili. The surroundings of other people are not without good, but there are too many who want to go astray. gone."

But before that, instead of worrying about what's available, I should compare myself to the grand prix first.

In the Japan station, Zhang Jue still won the championship with great momentum, and the finals will be held in Nagoya. After the six races, the athletes from the same country who are sure to go to Nagoya with Zhang Jue include Min Shan and Huang Ying .

Meng Xiaolei also broke into the finals of the youth group women's singles with the No.6 score, and boarded the plane to Japan with Zhang Jue. In order to take care of her, her sister also followed.

It was a college student who had only graduated less than half a year ago. He looked youthful and beautiful, and he was warm and generous in his dealings with others.

Zhang Junbao

The girl looked good, but Zhang Jue just greeted people lightly, and fell asleep on the seat.

Shen Liu covered him with a blanket: "It's enough for you to sleep as soon as you get on the plane."

Zhang Jue hummed twice, and his breathing quickly became even.

Meng Xiaosang tapped his fingers on the phone screen with dizzying speed.

[Sang Ge: Ahhh!Thanks to my sister, her hard work gave me the opportunity to watch Team Zhang's beauty up close! 】

[I envy the group leader, is Team Zhang a bare face now? 】

[Sang Ge: Except for competitions and performance skating, he is bare-faced all the time!This is always the case when interviewed by Yang Ma, the real person looks great!And it's super tall, there are a group of short guys on the figure skating side, standing inside it is a vivid interpretation of what it means to stand out from the crowd!And he's friendly!When we meet, take the initiative to shake my hand!His fingers are so long!Hands are white and soft~]

【Lord!Ask for more pictures of Crocodile! 】

[Group leader, I want Team Zhang's autograph, for the sake of the five years we've worked together as fish fry...you know. 】

[Group leader, you know if you want more figure skating shows that I filmed~]

……

Nagoya is an important faction of figure skating in Japan and the birthplace of the Nagoya faction. In the farce of robbing Hayato Teraoka before, the Nagoya faction has a strong sense of existence, and Hayato chose the practice of coach Mori, which made him even bigger. take the hate.

Although when he arrived in Nagoya, he would not even be able to leave the door like a dream come true when he went to the South Korea competition, otherwise he would be surrounded by reporters, but he didn't get any friendly looks.

When Zhang Jue got off the plane, he happened to see Hayato Teraoka and Keiko, and he waved his hands in surprise: "Hey, you are here to pick up my plane? Didn't you say you don't need to pick it up?"

Hayato rolled his eyes at him: "Don't think too much, we're not here to pick you up."

Zhang Jue tilted his head: "Don't pick me up? Then you can still pick up... Oh, is Gangshi here too?"

Qingzi nodded to him: "Yes, Gangshi's plane will arrive in three minutes."

As I said before, Coach Mori's ice rink is not big, and she mainly takes women's singles, and she has other little girls in her hands, so after Hayato came to Coach Mori, he actually relied more on himself for training , the coach only needs to assist him.

But the very mature Hayato can do this, but his younger brother Chiba Takeshi can't, so after careful consideration, in the off-season, Chiba Takeshi boarded the plane to Canada, entered the Cotton Club, and became a member of the Cotton Club. A student of Sa Lun and Cui Zhengshu.

As coaches, those two people are not the most famous ones. Although Saren was very popular when he was in the game, it was almost 20 years ago. Chiba Tsuyoshi went there for further training. Good things.

But after the start of the new season, the kid was in full swing, and finally overwhelmed David, becoming the sixth athlete to be shortlisted for the adult men's singles finals this season.

Zhang Jue sat on the suitcase and gnawed on an apple. After a while, the figures of Chiba Takeshi and the coaches entered his field of vision.

Studying alone in an unfamiliar foreign country is like a silent tempering, which makes this young man's eyes much sharper than before.

Takeshi Chiba, a 16-year-old teenager, emerged in his second season in the senior division and bared his fangs at the top men's singles.

Zhang Junbao tsk-tsk: "Tsk, although others say that the men's singles king in the next cycle may be Arthur Cohen, but Chiba Takeshi's comprehensive ability is obviously stronger."

These two teenagers have also conquered three quadruple jumps, and are currently developing a fourth one, and both have videos of successfully landing the new jump on the ice. They are the two most promising players in the new generation of men's singles.

Zhang Jue rested his chin on one hand, with a face full of fear: "If they want to stand up, they have to wait until I retreat."

"Then when will you retire?"

"At least wait until the end of the 2022 Winter Olympics."
