Blade of Glory [Figure Skating]

One of the best figure skaters of his era suffered such an accident at the peak of his competitive career. 4:40 long program game, eight jumps, four spins, two different steps.He managed only three jumps.As for the four spins, he was degraded from the group and deducted points because all the spins did not meet the regulations and the change of posture was less than expected...

He'd never skated such a bad long program, ever.

Almost the entire performance was spent in constant falls and struggles to get up. The sound of the body hitting the ice made the audience near the ice rink unable to bear to continue watching.But even so... he still finished the long program.

When the music stopped, Freire, who was anxious at the entrance of the ice rink, rushed into the ice rink regardless of his coach's obstruction, and helped Qing Yue, who was almost unable to stand on the ice, to his feet.However, Qingyue, who exhausted all his remaining physical strength while having a high fever, just said after panting for a long time: "Let me go out by myself."

When Qing Yue said these words without any hesitation, Freire let go of the hand holding him after being dazed, and just watched him slowly slide out of the ice rink.Under the eyes of everyone, although he looked so embarrassed and weak, he was not at all like a top athlete in the world who ranked first after the Olympic short program.

However, even under such circumstances... Qing Yue still straightened his body to accept the gazes looking at him.

When Qing Yue slowly slid out of the ice rink, Alek, who came out behind him, came out of the locker room.At that time, he could hardly imagine... what happened to Qing Yue.

Alek seemed to be struggling in his heart and wanted to support the unstable Qingyue under the camera lens.But in the end, he passed by without looking at him.When Qing Yue passed by Alek's side, he seemed to hear a faint voice repeating this...

"I'm 23 years old. Four years from now, I'll be 27..."

……

In the Winter Olympics that year, Alek, the famous player from the Jia country, won the Olympic champion at the age of 26 with his extraordinary quadruple jump, his usual ice footwork display and impeccable overall performance.

Planden Light Fryer narrowly missed out on a jumping error in the long program to earn his first Olympic silver medal.

Xishu's Qing Yue ranked first in the short program and won a total score ranking of more than a dozen, which was regarded as a great shame by the Xishu Ice Association.Moreover, Qing Yue publicly stated in a TV interview that he and the Olympic men's singles champion were lovers, but the other party clarified the incident the next day.This incident caused the Xishu Ice Association to be held tightly by the Jiaguo Ice Association, and even ridiculed by it.

This made the Xishu Ice Association feel ashamed and even more angry.

Driven by this will, they attempted to punish Qingyue and remove Qingyue, the athlete who made Xishu a big joke in the world ice circle, from Xishu's winter events.Although, he and Chu Xuan, who had just retired due to injury a few months ago, have created Xishu's ice glory in this era.

In fact, competitive athletes have been banned for being involved in homosexual scandals, and such things have happened in the last century.

However, Xishu has always been a country that flaunts freedom and individuality.Therefore, many people can't imagine that the cruel incident of current athletes being suspended due to homosexuality scandals, or even facing being delisted from the ice association because of their poor performance in the Olympic Games this season, will happen in such a country.

Le Sheng, who had heard the news in advance, went to the Xishu Ski Association because he won the snowboard championship in the Winter Olympics this year. The more you talk about it, the more you intercede.At least... don't let him be permanently expelled from the Xishu Ice Association.

Because of Le Sheng's efforts, the Hockey Association finally reluctantly ordered Qing Yue not to attend any commercial or non-commercial activities within three months.Let him reflect at home.Moreover, the Ice Association also proposed a one-year observation period for Qing Yue.In other words, in this year, as long as there is anything wrong with Qingyue, the Xishu Ice Association can permanently remove him, making him unable to participate in any international competitions that require players to declare through the Ice Association. race.

Qing Yue quietly returned to the country in a daze amidst the voices of abuse and doubts from the Chinese people.

Before he returned to China, Freire hugged him tightly and kept whispering in his ear: "You will still have a chance, and there will be..."

However, at this moment, Qingyue felt that he could not see even a shred of hope.

The Chinese scolded him angrily, and even the ice fans who had been talking to him a while ago... would support him no matter what... didn't understand him.I don't understand why he made such a mistake in such an important event.The first was getting caught up in a homosexual scandal for no reason during the warm-up of the Olympics.

Even if many ice fans say they like him, no matter what he does, they will continue to support him.But when he really got into a scandal like this, many people would still have subtle changes in their attitude towards him.Not to mention... Qing Yue's "brave" confession and Alek's ruthless clarification afterwards.

Yes, Alek denied their relationship as lovers when clarifying, and also denied their rivalry as if they were sworn enemies.But in the opinion of a certain faction of critics, it may only be Alek's sympathy for Qing Yue that contributed to all this.Although Alek won the championship of this Winter Olympics, he has always emphasized that Qing Yue is a very respectable figure skater.However... the score difference between Qingyue's short program and the long program made many people who heard Alek's emphasis laugh.

Ice fans and critics can accept a hard-working player without talent, but they cannot accept a talented player without hard work.

Since Qingyue has undergone systematic training in modern dance, and has been led by his good friend Freire, he has always paid great attention to his physical condition, coupled with his keen awareness of jumping.All this makes Qingyue the athlete with the best physical condition among men's singles players in the same period.

Yes, since Qingyue entered the senior group, he has hardly suffered any injuries, and he has never missed any season due to injuries.

Therefore, after watching Qing Yue's performance on the short program and then watching his match on the long program the next day... feel that he has insulted this passionate and artistic competitive sport.Yes, Qing Yue said that he had a fever on the day of the long program competition.But how many people will really believe it?How many people would doubt what Qing Yue said?

Well, even if they really thought that Qing Yue had a fever on the day of the competition.At this time they are going to talk again, Alek has been suffering from injuries, but he still won the championship in the Winter Olympics.In contrast, why did Qing Yue only have such a bad performance?

In the face of failure, all reasons have become pale excuses.

The people of Qingyue were even more disappointed with him.They thought... they thought that even if Chu Xuan retired due to injury, Qing Yue would still be able to bring back a heavyweight Olympic medal alone.A... a medal with more weight than what he got in the last Olympic Games.But Qing Yue, who is ranked second in the world, didn't even make it into the top ten.

One can imagine... what kind of anger this disappointment would turn into.

After experiencing a series of changes, Qingyue, whose nerves were already extremely fragile, could no longer face those voices from the outside world, those criticisms, criticisms, and abuses that did not have the slightest kindness.As if...he had never won the slightest honor for his motherland.

Qing Yue returned to her home and sealed herself in the bedroom, not even daring to go downstairs, let alone open the curtains of the room.He curled up all day long, hiding helplessly between the bed and the closet, and he didn't even have the courage to open the curtains a little to let the warm sunlight shine in...

But even so, the images related to the just-concluded Olympic Games will continue to crash into Qing Yue's mind.It was as if he was imprisoned in a dark projection room.He was the only one in the entire dark hut.And the projector that tells about uneasiness and weirdness just keeps playing the picture of him falling down again and again on the ice. Ice fans are playing with disbelieving and even angry eyes... Alek said they Just a picture of friends.

But even so, the disappointed ice fans still couldn't let him go.

The author has something to say:

Everyone thinks it’s absurd that I said that Qing Yue was almost suspended... Plushenko was actually banned by the ISU for participating in a commercial performance instead of participating in a certain year’s World Championships... Yagudin also made legendary observations Period... For the ice association of a country, the mistake Qingyue made this time should be considered very serious... ORZ and then... This paragraph is actually very abusive in the outline, but it is written I can't bear it anymore... Change it, change it, make it a little bit less cruel.This paragraph is basically a very plain statement of the facts... I didn't feel any abuse when I wrote it, so I just want to write this dark period quickly!

Then~!ARTISTRY ON ICE came to China again this year~!There are Shanghai, Beijing and Taipei!Johnny, Yagudin, and Edwin Marton are all here~!The little zebra Lambir played "Lang Lang and his champion partner" in ORZ on 6.18... Interested friends can pay attention~!Langye has already sold everything he can... Bought the tickets for both performances.The nest and the mother said ~!Look at Lambiel!Lambiel's skating style is my favorite of all figure skaters!My mother said that the evildoers in the United States are not as good-looking, so it depends on the evildoers... So I took my mother to see ARTISTRY ON ICE!

Then...after the seating chart came out, I suddenly found out that the VIP ticket I bought...the seat seemed to be placed on the ice by the organizer...?They GJ!
