17 years on ice [figure skating]

◎Some vinegar essence◎

After that, I didn’t have much time for these entertainments. Lu Xi was disconnected from the Internet for two days and concentrated on preparing for the game. The only people who had contact with him were Huang Bin and Deng Chang. Good morning and good night every day, and then Huang Bin and Deng Chang would give He encouraged.

Two days later, the Four Continents Tournament started, and it was also the first men's singles event. Because of the points problem in the World Championship, Lu Xi still played in the first group, and even Liu Xinyu was able to be in the third group.And Lu Xi was very unlucky in the lottery draw this time, the first in the first group, with "Please come and score my points" written all over his face.

However, Lucy has always been a super spring character with greater pressure and stronger motivation, so even if he is the first death position in the first group, he still plays with confidence.

The theme of Lu Xi's short program this year is "Blessing". The overall performance is a cheerful and passionate performance. According to what Jiang Han told him before, it shows the joy of celebrating the harvest.

So Kosten made a red jacket representing enthusiasm, with a little golden tassel hanging on it, symbolizing the harvest of grain in the farmland.

This program is actually a bit far from Lu Xi's life, and it is also to challenge himself. In order to dance this program well, Jiang Han asked him to watch many agricultural-related documentaries.

Not to mention how well he practiced dancing now, if he went to the field to plant rice seedlings, he should be pretty proficient.

In short, as the opening player, Lu Xi came to the middle of the field.

The opening freeze-frame is a movement of cross-legged half-squatting, bowing forward, and crossing hands in front of the face, which is transformed from the movement of transplanting rice seedlings. This is also simulating the shape of flower buds. It is a very complicated and difficult pose. The degree to which individuals can't help but imitate it when they see it.

The music sounded, and Lucy stood up gracefully from this movement. He straightened his head and straightened his waist at the same time, his upper body slightly arched back into a beautiful small arc, his hands spread out like a butterfly spreading its wings, and his feet slid out smoothly. .

Just looking at this movement, you can feel his progress in performance. Such a flower-like body movement last season will definitely make people think of him as a mechanical flower.

Then Lucy started technical moves.

The first movement is 4Lo, the most difficult movement he has mastered so far. It is a single jump around the back and outside, and then a three-and-a-half-week single jump. Set footwork, freeze frame in midfield.

The arrangement of the figure skating program is generally a few jumps, small steps, and then to the middle of the program. In the middle part, there will be a part of time based on dance movements, footwork, and gliding, and then the second half of jumping, footwork and rotation .

For Lucy, the most difficult part of any program is the dance moves in the middle. Especially in this program, the hand movements Jiang Han arranged for him imitated picking fruits from the fruit tree with his head up, watering the fields with his head down. In water and other activities, the range of up and down changes is extremely large, and there are many arm movements.

When Jiang Han showed it for the first time, his body was up and down, light and agile, like a swallow flying in the field, and like a girl dancing on the ridge of the field.

And when Lucy imitated, he swayed up and down several times, Jiang Han directly masked the pain, switched the agricultural documentary on TV to the animal world, and showed Lucy what a "crazy gibbon" is.

Fortunately, Lin Yingsu and Chen Qi teamed up to save it a little bit. Their way of saving it was to match Lu Xi's hand movements with super-difficult footwork. In the two sets of movements, the ugliness during the hand-change will not be so obvious, and the referee will focus more on Lucy's beautiful footwork.

Of course, Lucy himself practiced hard. Although it is still difficult to call it "beautiful", at least it is not as hard to bear to look at as before.

For Jiang Han, the evaluation has changed from "crazy gibbon" to "painful junior dance student".

On the ice rink, Lucy started this series of combined footwork. He completed a set of extremely difficult consecutive steps at a very fast speed, including the rotation using the blade to quickly touch the ice, and the high-speed and complex direction change using the blade.

At the same time, following the movement of the body, the hand sometimes bends down and taps the wrist quickly, and sometimes raises the hand to hold a flower.

It still looks a little crazy, but it belongs to the kind of madness that can be appreciated.

After this group of dance steps is completed, there is only one continuous dance left. It is still Lu Xi's relatively good and steady 4T+3T, which is completed without any flaws. The last group of joint rotations announces the end of the movement.

The first one to appear on the stage often does not get a good score, because the referee will be tight, but even so, Lucy still scored 92 points in the short program. Both ranked first in the short program.

However, there were some very good players in the first group, such as Kavalenko and Asano Subaru. After everyone finished the competition, Lucy's short program score ranked fifth.

The highest score is perfect play, 101 points for Asano Subaru, No.2 is 98 points for Kavalenko.

Fifth is not bad for Lucy, so that his free skate can be played in the last group, and the "last group" is an honor in itself.

Moreover, Lu Xi continued his previous style of being weak in the short program and strong in the free skating. He bet on the free skating. He didn't even have the highest configuration for the jumps in the short program. a medal.

After finishing the short program, go back to rest, and wait until the women's singles match is over before training. The first thing Lu Xi does when he returns to the room is to touch his phone. He wants to send a text message to Deng Chang, asking him "Did you watch my match!!"

In the end, he took out his mobile phone and found that there was a new message on the screen. Deng Chang said that he played well.

Lu Xi was in a better mood, and immediately replied: "Is it just not bad?" !

Deng Changhui: Compared with all the players, it is very good. Compared with yourself, it is not bad.

Lu Xi replied with a half-silent and half-cute expression.

This Deng Chang, after being quiet, has a really sweet mouth.

The second day is free skating. The theme of Lucy's free skating is "Tengu Eats the Moon". The soundtrack is a mix of pure music from the classic animation work "Lotus Lantern". The style of this program is a bit crazy, and it is very traditional Chinese. Wind, Costen is black lantern sleeves with a small turtleneck, plus some red dragon embroidery.

This kind of performance that needs to be cool instead of showing a happy atmosphere is more in Lucy's advantage. He appeared second in the last group of free skating. This program is more difficult than his previous "Kill Bill" program. High, because one jump is reduced under the new rules, so the difficulty of jump jumps has been raised by a whole level, including an advanced 4+3: 4Lo+3Lo that Lucy just completed recently.

Lucy fell once in this program, but other than that it was a perfect performance. In the end, he got a high score of 193, and the two programs added together, more than 285 points.

In the end, Subaru Asano won the championship with 303 points, and Kavalenko won the silver medal with 295 points. The rest of the players were not so strong in hard skills, and each made mistakes. Lucy defeated the one behind him with a small difference of 1.2. A Canadian player took third place.

Liu Xinyu ranked 12th, in the middle and bottom of all free skaters.

Lucy was very happy on the podium. It was his first international race since his injury and he won a medal. It was the greatest reward for the pain he had suffered in the past few months.It was the same post-match interview as before, and then Chen Qi told Lucy to prepare for his skating.

There was a live broadcast of the post-match interview, Lucy was talking, Subaru Asano just finished the interview and walked behind him, just walked out of the camera and turned back, insisting on high-fiving Lucy, and happily said: "Come on Lucy! ! Lucy is number one!"

Lucy immediately gave him a thumbs up: "The kitten is the first!"

Performance skating is an ice performance performed by athletes with better rankings and host athletes after each competition. The difficulty will be relatively low and the fun will be relatively high. Lucy won the bronze medal and is also a member of the host team. As for the skating seat, Subaru Asano also has one, of course, and Lucy plans to ask Subaru Asano to go skating with him later.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he went back to the room and touched his phone, he found that Deng Chang had sent him a WeChat message, congratulating him on winning the bronze medal and asking him what he was doing.

Deng Chang is generally not a chatterboy who talks a lot, but Lu Xi quite likes chatting with him, so I started chatting with him. Deng Chang suddenly shared a few videos and said, watch them carefully!

Lu Xi froze for a moment. Of course he wanted to watch the video Deng Chang shared, so he told Asano Subaru to let him go first and go later by himself. Anyway, he was very tired after the game, so he collapsed on the bed and talked with Deng Chang. After chatting on WeChat for a while, I went to training. At that time, Subaru Asano had already finished training and went back.

Later, at dinner time, Deng Chang sent another WeChat message, so Lu Xi chatted with Deng Chang while eating.

The next day, during the pair skating competition, Lucy was watching from the stands. The athletes had a separate seat to watch the competition. Subaru Asano came running over to sit with him. Zhen, opened it and saw that it was Deng Chang.

-Deng Chang: I just saw you on TV;

- Lucy: Am I handsome?

-Deng Chang: Not bad;

Then Deng Chang shared kittens and puppies with him.

Lucy opened it obediently, so he had no time to talk to Subaru Asano again, but he felt a little strange.

- Lucy: You have been free for the past two days;

- Lucy: There is always time to send messages;

- Deng Chang:.

- Deng Chang: Yes.
