17 years on ice [figure skating]

◎He doesn't even know if he can slide over, so he has to gamble on his luck. ◎

In late October, the Winter Olympic Trials was held in the first body, replacing the previous year's National Championships, with the purpose of selecting athletes for this year's Winter Olympics.

The trials for the Winter Olympics have not been made public, and only ice fans will be informed of the list of participants and the scores of the competition. Because of this, ice fans will be questioned from time to time.

However, in order to keep the strength of the team secret before the Winter Olympics, the top management of the national team decided to keep this system after discussion.

Before the start of the Winter Olympics selection, the forum started to quarrel again.

The subject of the dispute is of course the second place in the men's singles.

Gao Zhuoxiao or Lu Xi.

Last year, Gao Zhuoxiao participated in the World Championships and the Grand Prix. In the Grand Prix, he finished fourth in two sub-stations, and No.8 in the World Championships.

In terms of historical achievements, of course Gao Zhuoxiao cannot compare with Lu Xi who has broken the world record and won the world championship, but in terms of status, he is on the rise. Last season he played 4Lo, and it is said that 4T is also in the process of training.

In contrast, Lu Xi’s comeback battle only lasted three weeks in 4F, 4S and 4Lo, and his comeback after a comminuted fracture always makes people feel that he is not as good as before, but Lu Xi has a huge fan base , so the discussion on the Internet is probably [-]-[-].

-

-[Xiaoxi has been so awesome in the past cycle, it would be a pity if he couldn't make it to the Winter Olympics. 】

-[When will there be less "pity" in competitive sports? Isn't it a pity to say that it's a pity that Lao Wa retired?Is it a pity that Orihara does not have an OGG (Olympic gold medal)?Let's talk about strength. 】

- [In terms of strength, Xiaoxi is also above Gao Zhuoxiao, Xiaoxi has all five kinds of four weeks, but I don’t know how much he has recovered. 】

-[Receipt upstairs, fans are too obvious. 】

-

-【Stop arguing, stop arguing, they are all from the national team, and the palms and backs of their hands are full of meat.By the way, can we win a gold medal this year?Does Deng Chang have a play? 】

-[In terms of hard power, it is definitely enough, and the developmental level has also passed, but I don't feel that it is much stronger than Orihara. 】

-[Jers is sinking into the lake, that Ace seems to be suspended this year, I don't know how his level is. 】

- [Deng Chang come on!Bring back a gold medal! 】

-[If Deng Chang wants to win the gold medal, I think Lu Xi must go to the Winter Olympics, right?When Lu Xi went to the arena, Deng Chang played chicken blood. 】

-[Oh, it means that if Xiaoxi enters the Winter Olympics, it is a conspiracy theory that he accompanied Deng Chang to study, right? 】

-[Go back upstairs, isn't your thinking too complicated? 】

-[The super chats and posts you follow are all Gao Zhuoxiao, you say I have complicated thoughts? 】

-

"..." Lu Xi was dumbfounded, "Is it possible to quarrel?"

"Why can't we quarrel now?" Deng Chang sighed with a smile.

In fact, the contestants are still not determined at all, and no one has any privileges. Even Deng Chang, who is currently the most stable, has a big crash in the trials and falls to third place, and he will regret losing the opportunity to enter the Winter Olympics. .

So no one dares to neglect.

Lucy managed to pick up the ice around the back of his back, but there was still no news about the hook around. However, if the four quadruple jumps were performed steadily enough, it would be enough for him to defeat Gao Zhuoxiao.

The Winter Olympic trials started in such an atmosphere.

Because only national team players participated, all events were compared on the same day, and the order was not in accordance with international practice. The most competitive pair skating was first compared, followed by men's singles.

The ace combination of pair skating is Qin Shu and Hu Muyu, but both of them are already veterans in the Winter Olympics. If it is not because they want to participate in the Olympics at home, they should have retired last year, and they will be replaced by a pair The up-and-coming teenagers, Fang Lian and Zhou Yang, and two other pairs are also quite competitive. Out of the four pairs, three pairs will be selected to participate in the Winter Olympics. The competition is fierce.

Lucy sat there watching nothing. He didn't know much about pair skating, but he knew that the national team's level was very high. In addition to the internal scoring, the floating score was very high, and the high scores overflowed the screen one by one.

After two days of competition, after the short program on the first day, Deng Chang ranked first, and Lu Xi and Gao Zhuoxiao were two points behind.

Free skating the next day.

The free skating is the time to finally decide on the number of participants, and the atmosphere is obviously tense.

In the end, Qin Shu, Hu Muyu, Fang Lian, Zhou Yang, Zhang Kexin and Chang Hao won the pair skating, although the pair skating couple seemed to have a good relationship.

But when the score was awarded, the obvious mentality of the last losing pair immediately collapsed. The female partner stood up and left, and the male partner followed behind to coax her.

The remaining three couples wanted to comfort them, but felt that going would add fuel to the fire, which made the scene rather embarrassing.

Lu Xi thought again, what if he lost to Gao Zhuoxiao, what would Gao Zhuoxiao do if he came to comfort him.

If you want him to smile and say congratulations, he will definitely not be able to do it. He will be very uncomfortable. His dream is to be the world's No. [-] men's singles, and the Olympic gold medal is also in the plan. Very frustrating.

At this time, an assistant coach came over to let the men's singles players prepare. Lu Xi took a deep breath and watched Gao Zhuoxiao next to him move his legs and feet on the ice.From the perspective of an athlete, the young boy is almost at the peak. Lucy is 22 years old, and his physical fitness is already declining.

I have to admit that the injury has dealt a severe blow to his self-confidence. He has to face himself again and again, facing the gap, and facing the current strength of only 70%-80% of his full body.

And last year's qualifiers, he didn't skate past Gao Zhuoxiao either.

-

After Gao Zhuoxiao played, Lu Xi went to the locker room, saying it was a warm-up. There was a good reason for this, and Chen Qi didn't stop him.

Deng Chang looked at him several times after hearing what he said, but Lu Xi didn't dare to look at Deng Chang and ran away by himself.

Lu Xi was indeed warming up in the locker room, but he was also nervous. Gao Zhuoxiao's condition looked good, but his own condition...it's hard to say.

He hates himself like this. After being injured, he has never really won, because he is not strong enough, and he has no confidence in saying anything. Even the third seed, he doesn't know if he can slip past, and he has to gamble on luck.

Just thinking about it, the door of the locker room opened, and Lu Xi looked up and saw Deng Chang.

"Xiaoxi." Deng Chang stopped Lu Xi at the door and looked at him.

His eyes inexplicably reminded Lucy of himself ten years ago, as if provocative.

"What's wrong?" Lucy asked in a daze.

Deng Chang stretched out his hand, grabbed Lu Xi's shoulder, patted it first, and then shook him twice as if encouraging him. He didn't know why he could guess what was on Lu Xi's mind, but he did say so anyway.

Deng Chang said: "Don't be afraid of others, your opponent has always been me."
