I'm still dancing today
Chapter 88 The game begins [VIP]
The men's singles short program is in the afternoon.
Ice dance competition in the evening.
Although one after the other, but all in one day, the time is still tense.
Xia Kaikai rested for 10 minutes after putting down his luggage, and was called out by Wen Jian. It was those same people, Mu Yuan and Danny also appeared to accompany them to the arena to warm up.
The large commercial vehicle drove the crowd for less than 10 minutes, and finally came to the front of the skating hall.
This is a national-level skating rink, a large skating rink that can accommodate 1 people to watch the game, and it is completely different from last year's club league.The skating rink standing on the square looks like a huge silver egg. The view around the building is wide. There are many hot air balloons and ribbons hanging on the square. There are soldiers from country E standing at the gate, on both sides of the road, and in the square. Pass on patrol.
There were no tourists playing in the square. There should be a game going on at this time, and the spectators had all entered the arena. So when the sunlight fell on the white and clean cement tiles of the square, there was even a sense of glaring chill.
The commercial vehicle pulled them in a big circle outside the square of the skating hall, and then drove into the gate, pulling them all the way to the side of the huge silver egg.
When getting out of the car, a pair of soldiers came over and asked them to show their ID cards, and someone held up a device to sweep their faces before they were allowed to pass.
Xia Kaikai followed the procedures step by step to prove his identity as a contestant. Even Mu Yuan and Danny were members of the contestant team and passed the inspection quickly.
While waiting to go again, someone pulled his sleeve, Xia Kaikai turned his head to look, it was Zhou Yueshan.
Zhou Yueshan said: "Xia Kai, I'm nervous, what should I do?"
Xia Kaikai looked at her.
Zhou Yueshan rubbed her heart and frowned: "Speaking of which, this is my first World Series. I haven't even participated in a domestic competition this season. I'm so nervous that I can't breathe."
Xia Kaikai smiled and said: "It's not alone, I will accompany you on the field, just look at me, as if you are in love with me, wholeheartedly..."
"Cough!" Mu Yuan coughed dryly with a cold face.
Zhou Yueshan shrugged, stuck out her tongue, and walked away holding back a smile.
Xia Kaikai sighed, this jealous person really still minds that he "once" confessed his love to Zhou Yueshan.
Entering the arena, I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but I feel that the style is rigorous, and the work area, referee area, and media area are clearly distinguished. Although there are not many spectators, there is still a feeling of being suppressed by a certain momentum.
Xia Kaikai moved his body, and the suppressed feeling disappeared.
To say that the most advantage for him to continue to participate in the competition after being reborn is probably not in the dance, but in his endurance on the field. Not only will such a scene not make him nervous, but it will make him calm down faster. Quickly adjust the status.
Now the game is still going on.
It's a pair skating event.
Pair skating has always been Hua Country's strong point. Country E hasn't had good players in the past two years, so it has been reduced to competing at various bad times.
When Xia Kaikai and the others came in, the pair skating free skating competition had been going on for almost two hours, and now it happened to be the championship group competition, and there should be no two groups left.
Xia Kaikai and the others found a seat at random. There were empty seats everywhere in the arena, and they just sat down. Everyone sat in three rows and just looked at it like that.
Although pair skating is also a two-person event, it is different from ice dancing in many ways.Pair skating continues the elements of men's singles and women's singles sports competition. The players compete on the court with skills, and lifts are over shoulders, which is not allowed in ice dance.There is also the joint rotation that is often seen in single-person events, which will become a technical requirement for synchronous rotation in double-person events. It is a necessary movement, and this technical movement is not available in ice dancing.As well as the twirling of throwing jumps, synchronized jumps, etc., these are different from ice dancing.
The most fundamental scoring principle of ice dance is to combine ballroom dancing and ice skills. As for the so-called technical points, they are just for the sake of adding luster to the show.
But to say, pair skating is more difficult than ice dancing?
That is layman.
Those difficult skills in pair skating are difficult for ordinary people to understand.However, the expressive power of ice dancing and the picky choreography of gliding under the feet are the difficulties of ice dancing. People who don’t know enough about ice dancing, or audiences who don’t have enough aesthetic ability of dancing, can’t tell which ice dancing show is better. good.They will only say, wow, this ice dance is really artistic, wow, this ice dance is really passionate, wow, this ice dance is so cute... But how can they say it is full of mood?Why are you passionate?How cute?Unable to speak!
The movement of ice dance conveys a round and flawless beauty that is almost perfect.
When watching ice dance, you don’t even have to worry about whether these players fail in a certain movement, so you can watch from the beginning to the end without distraction, indulge in it, and finally recall the message that the ice dancers want to pass on to you at the end of the music , and then smiled heartfeltly, saying sincerely, it’s so beautiful.
Xia Kaikai watched the performance of the pair skaters on the field, and his eyes wandered around the players.
Pair skating also requires synchronicity.
Pair skating requires more skill.
But in terms of physical coordination and display ability, there is simply no skill at all.
Obviously, when a knot is connected after twirling, if the two of them can lower their waists, tilt their hips, tie the loop on the ice with the music, and then stand up slowly with their chests straight at the end of the movement, This must be beautiful.
But there is no pair. After the toss jump, the female player simply slid back and performed the next technical move with her male partner... It seems that the continuous step in the middle is just a continuous step, just to wait for the next one. The things that had to be added before the technical moves came, and they just finished skating. Even in order to connect to a synchronized triple axel, the pair of skaters on the ice skated backwards for a full second and a half.
One and a half seconds!
In the eyes of ice dancers, it is enough to make two or three movements, and the steps of the feet will not be lower than two changes. The so-called "standby time" is equivalent to "suicide" in ice dance.
This is the difference and gap between ice dancing and pair skating.
Immediately afterwards, the No.6 player in the championship group came on stage.
Also the last skater in a free skate.
It turned out to be the pair skaters from Huaguo.
Jiang Yangbo and Huo Xuening.
This pair is also a legend.
Huo Xuening had been skating pairs for more than ten years, but four years ago her partner split her legs, and their pair also broke up.
Huo Xuening insisted on staying in the national team. First, she skated with Su Yu at the World Championships and won a double spot in the Olympic Games in the second year. Then she joined hands with Jiang Yangbo in the second year. This is the third year that the two have cooperated. I practiced for three years.This year, he finally made his way in the domestic grand prix and won the national championship. Then he came to the "Four Continents" and successfully entered the championship group competition.
Their free skating program is "Pirates of the Caribbean". The clothes of the two are black with sequins. The story is about the love-hate entanglement between a man and a woman. By the way, it looks like an avenger. The rhythm and atmosphere are constant. Lifting up slowly.
Xia Kaikai watched halfway through, but it was really difficult to interpret. The artistic part of pair skating was far worse than ice dancing, so he stopped trying to comprehend it. In short, it was not Gao Piaoyuan's love, but the more passionate one.
But the technical movements of the two are quite difficult.
Jiang Yangbo's strength is too strong, holding his ninety-pound female partner is like playing, especially the throwing, jumping and twirling movement, the next second when Huo Xuening's ice blade fell steadily to the ground, the scene exploded. There was crazy applause.
Toss, jump and twirl around!
Huo Xuening was thrown up by a full meter, and she was able to twirl around with ease. Before landing, she still had the strength to adjust her body, so that this movement could be completed cleanly and flawlessly!
"Okay!" Everyone around me knew figure skating, and they could tell the difficulty of this move at a glance.
And it's not just a question of high difficulty, the key is that if someone does well, the score will be high, and if the score is high, getting a good ranking is also a credit to the teammates.Even Xia Kaikai applauded them sincerely.
It is impossible for him to skate in pair skating. He has not been able to lift Zhou Yueshan very smoothly so far. I know how hard it is for me, so if he wants to throw Zhou Yueshan out for a twirl, it will take at most two and a half laps to land.
But Jiang Yangbo's upper body strength is terrifying to look at. When his thick arms are doing throwing and lifting movements, the moment the muscles bulge, it almost feels like the clothes are going to be torn.
Such things as strength are also talents. Some people are naturally easy to develop strength, while others are not.
Xia Kaikai, regardless of his previous life or present life, has always followed the dexterous route. He really doesn't understand what a powerful force is.
In a blink of an eye, Jiang Yangbo easily lifted Huo Xuening up with one hand. Huo Xuening clasped his fingers together, as if he was directly on the ground, without shaking or shaking. finished.
Another applause.
And the most beautiful thing is that Jiang Yangbo's men's singles turned to pair skating, not only can lift people, but also can jump. The two synchronized hooks for three weeks and then outside ice for three weeks, which once again made the audience applaud.
Staying for the last synchronous joint spin, successfully ended their game.
Three years to sharpen a sword.
In the past three years, Jiang Yangbo and Huo Xuening even disappeared for a while, but three years later, they finally successfully stood on the world stage.
It also allowed Huaguo's pair skating to maintain a sufficiently good ranking again.
Jiang Yangbo and Huo Xuening won the bronze medal in this competition!
It is a pity to lose a pair of American couples and British roommates.
After analysis, Jiang Yangbo and Huo Xuening's skills are very difficult, and they have really worked hard on synchronization. The part they lost is in their artistic expression. Jiang Yangbo may be too focused on strength, the lines are too hard, the movements It's all straightforward, and Huo Xuening also lacks dancing skills.
At this time, Xia Kaikai was thinking about how to make the players from Huaguo hide their flaws.
First of all, when choosing a program, you should not choose songs that are too soft. Just like this time "Pirates of the Caribbean" should be tailor-made for them. The impassioned songs are more suitable for Jiang Yangbo's straight-forward line. In the future, we can only continue to develop in this direction.But if you want to change the dance skills, cooperate with the Huaxing Group for dance training, etc., it’s not enough...Xia Kaikai thinks that he should work hard on the details of the choreography, make the tail of each movement rounder, and handle more small skills. It will be much better.
But these were what Xia Kaikai thought. After the awards ceremony, Jiang Yangbo and Huo Xuening came over to say hello. Xia Kaikai shook hands, but didn't say anything nonsense.
We didn't meet each other before, and we will meet each other on the field in the future. If we really want to talk about it, we will only talk about it in shallow words, which is annoying.
competition is over.
The ice surface is not in a hurry to cover the ice, and players who are ready to familiarize themselves with the venue and warm up can go on the ice.
Xia Kaikai and the others are not the only pair of ice dancers on the ice, but because of Su Yu's relationship, they have attracted quite a lot of attention.
When a contestant came to say hello, Su Yu would usually introduce it, and Xia Kaikai shook hands in cooperation, and in a blink of an eye, he saw Su Yu looking at him with that probing look again.
Xia Kaikai was not feeling well, so he took Zhou Yueshan a little further away, avoiding Su Yu's eyes.
"Look over there." While skating, Zhou Yueshan motioned Xia Kaikai to turn her head to look, and saw Yan Bingbing training alone far away.Since meeting with Su Yu and the others by accident, Yan Bingbing has drifted away from the group, and it was too obvious that she didn't want to have any intersection with Su Yu and the others.
"What happened to the men's singles side? Do you know?" Zhou Yueshan asked curiously.
Xia Kaikai said, "I heard it's about the Olympic quota."
"Olympics? What happened the year before last? Are you still ignoring each other now?"
"The Olympic Games are held every four years, and an athlete can participate in several Olympic Games in a lifetime. I can understand Yan Bingbing's thoughts."
Zhou Yueshan nodded, sighed, and stopped talking.
Xia Kaikai and the others didn't go to the men's singles match in the afternoon.
I took a nap at noon, adjusted my state, and opened my eyes again. The short program of the men's singles has been compared.
Not unexpectedly, the short program is still Su Yu, Wu Yi ranked fourteenth in the short program, Yan Bingbing sixteenth, in the free skating competition, Su Yu will compete in the championship group, and Wu Yi and Yan Bingbing competed in the third group.
I ate dinner at the hotel, but it was an athlete chef hired by Mu Yuan alone. His skills may not be as good as that of a super five-star chef, but the key is that the ingredients are safe and safe. Anyway, it’s just something to fill your stomach. You can eat anything at this time OK.
Xia Kaikai and Zhou Yueshan didn't eat much, and there was more than an hour before the competition, so they needed to control their food intake.
Immediately afterwards, the group went to the skating hall again.
The ice has not been tidied up yet, and there are potholes everywhere, which shows the intensity of the men's singles competition in the afternoon.There are already ice dancers on the ice, and one of them is the Arabella combination from the UK.
Zhou Yueshan said: "Look, the Arabel siblings."
Xia Kaikai turned his head to look, the siblings are very young, both of them are only 20 years old, the outlines do look similar, the long lines make their movements on the ice beautiful, the younger brother tried two It's easy to move.
Looking to the side, the ice dancers around me are all young, and some of them may have just been promoted to the adult group. Unlike last year's club league, there are no players around 30 years old. These young athletes are not only more youthful in appearance Beautiful, the most important thing is the endless power contained in that body, which is also their potential. This age is just right for them to learn, memorize and analyze better, and then make more outstanding moves.
The age of 22 to 28 is the golden age for ice dancers, and Xia Kaikai and Zhou Yueshan are also in this age group, and it is time to make achievements.
Although Zhou Yueshan said she was nervous, it was because she was cautious about the first World Series in her life, so she was very serious about the last warm-up before the game, and she would repeatedly ask Xia Kaikai to cooperate with her in the exercises that she was not good at. , I will also cooperate with Xia Kaikai to do some lift training, and then skate with Xia Kaikai to every angle on the ice, using the ice blades under my feet and my eyes to feel the field.
An hour passed quickly, and the competition announced that the contestants would get off the ice, and the ice would start to be covered with ice.
Simultaneously.
Spectators also started to come in.
Sure enough, there were a lot of spectators filing in.
Some of them are ice dance fans from all over the world, but there are also many Meaux locals buying a ticket to pass the time after a long day of work.
In twenty minutes or so, one-third of the auditorium was filled.
The appeal of the short program is only this level, but even if there is only one-third of the audience, there are still 3000 people in the arena.
This number is enough to explain the attractiveness of the World Series, and it also makes people feel the pressure of the competition again.
Xia Kaikai and Zhou Yueshan went to change clothes. After changing out, Zhou Yueshan sat there and began to put on makeup. She was using makeup to adjust her state.Xia Kaikai had nothing to do and didn't want to listen to the music of the game, so he chatted with Wen Jian in a low voice.
There is no need to draw lots for the short program, just compete in the order of registration.
Xia Kaikai and the others waited for the computer to report their names in the early morning, and they ranked sixth on the registration form. This will also be their order of playing in the game.And during the warm-up, Wen Jian had already signed them in and reconfirmed the music for the competition. Now all they had to do was wait for the competition to start.
As country E time approached [-]:[-] p.m., the arena gradually quieted down. Music played on the radio, and the staff stopped running around. Then, the referee appeared amidst applause.
The nine referees take their seats, and the chief referee sits in the middle. When they sit firmly, it means that the game is about to start.
Zhou Yueshan had already finished her makeup. While listening to the music, she lowered her head and cut her nails. Suddenly, her hands trembled, and a drop of blood quickly appeared on her deep-cut nails. with.
"Are you okay?" Xia Kaikai saw it.
Zhou Yueshan shook her head and said, "It's intentional. Appropriate pain stimulation will make me calm down. My head is a little swollen now. Let the bloodletting be enough."
Xia Kaikai raised his eyebrows, "The way you decompress is really strange."
Zhou Yueshan said: "Whether it's weird or not, as long as it works."
"Will it work?" Xia Kaikai asked, seeing Zhou Yueshan pulled out her finger, the wound was no longer bleeding, she frowned and wanted to poke the wound with nail clippers, Xia Kaikai raised her hand to stop her: "Go, go warm up, We're in group six."
Zhou Yueshan took out paper from the backpack under her feet and wiped it, while going backstage with Xia Kaikai.
In the background, they still need to sing their names once, and then they are put into the preparation area in batches by the staff.
So Xia Kaikai, who played No.6, walked around the background and arrived at the preparation area in a few minutes.
The preparation area is just next to the entrance and exit, on the same level as the ice surface. At the bottom of the stands, there are not many seats. In a single row, you can see the performance of the players on the ice when you stand up straight.
There is a lot of space left here for the players to make the final land preparations. Only six groups of players are allowed in each time, and the teams will be separated by a little distance to form a small space that will not interfere with each other.
The first group of players is ready at the position of the entrance and exit ice surface. The other players are either sitting or standing, and many people are wearing skates. In short, they are all busy.
And Zhou Yueshan's expression was very relaxed since she started to move until she was sitting here. Excessive calm before the game will make people think too much, which is not a good thing.
Seven o'clock sharp.
The music over the arena disappeared.
The voice of the host of the contest sounded on the radio.
"Good evening, contestants and spectators. Welcome to Meaux. Tonight is the ice dance short program competition of the "Four Continents Figure Skating Championships."
"Now I would like to introduce to you the referee tonight, from Germany..."
Every time a referee is called, that referee will stand up, bow to the audience in the front and rear directions, and then sit down again.
At this time, there will be applause in the arena.
After the introduction of the nine referees, the chief referee stood up to give a speech, and made a fist-swearing oath for the fairness of the competition.
After this series of procedures, the pair of No. [-] players who stood at the entrance and exit position in advance, their body movements were already a little unnaturally stiff. They tried in vain to relieve it by squatting, bending over, etc., but the effect was obvious. Not so much.
"Ice dance short program, the first pair of contestants, Carida Anthony and Jack Harrison from country A, short program "Hot Eyes"."
Xia Kaikai and Zhou Yueshan paused for a moment, then continued.
Ice dance short programs are limited to the type of dance, so collisions are very common. As the saying goes, collisions are not terrible, and whoever is worse is embarrassed. Therefore, everyone skates almost the same program, which is more conducive to the selection of the judges. Out of the really good athletes, into the next game.
Familiar music played quickly on the ice. Zhou Yueshan, who lowered her head to adjust the laces of her skates and shoes, didn't even look at it, but Xia Kaikai watched it seriously.
Well……
After watching it for 30 seconds, Xia Kaikai had come to a conclusion.
First of all, the songs are not exactly the same. If the 3-minute song has to be compressed into 2 minutes, it must be re-made.And the abilities of the country A group are really average, the synchronization of their feet is not enough, the body language is not full enough, and there are some problems with the choreography. The positioning of bullfighting and flamenco is very vague. In short, Xia Kaikai feels no pressure.
The final score is really average, only 64 points, this score is not allowed to enter the free skating score.
After seeing the score, the two were very disappointed, and finally comforted each other and left.
The program of the second group of contestants is "Spanish Matador March". The impassioned music did not arouse the emotions of the audience. Their own abilities are not enough, but they still have to choose this kind of music that has no room to keep up with the consequences of the rhythm. It's just that the skating is messy, not to mention the synchronicity, it can be said that one-third of the time is either rushed or slow. In short, for Xia Kaikai who is very sensitive to rhythm, this show is simply terrible.
The referee is also very bad.
57 points, directly sentenced to death.
Xia Kaikai put on the earphones, not daring to watch anymore.
Where did these players get the confidence to participate in ice dancing competitions?
Is it because of skating?So I felt that ice dancing without technical moves on the ice is more slippery, so I chose ice dancing?
The dance that is always out of beat is almost magical, destroying a person's sense of rhythm.
If Xia Kaikai didn't want his head to be filled with notes from other players when he was playing, he had no choice but to stop watching.
Zhou Yueshan looked up and saw that Xia Kaikai was also wearing earphones and smiled at him.
Xia Kaikai shrugged, saying that he couldn't bear it.
Then Zhou Yueshan pulled the earphones of the two and said: "In fact, many countries do not have systematic ice sports teaching, but there are competition places, so the level of many athletes is very poor. Let's talk about the last group of free skaters and the championship group. It’s all very different, if you don’t want to be led off, don’t watch the game.”
Xia Kaikai laughed and said, "I'm not watching their games, I'm looking for self-confidence in them."
Zhou Yueshan froze, then thought about this possibility, and said in confusion: "Is it effective?"
Xia Kaikai was amused by this silly girl, raised his hand to rub her head, and said, "Guess."
The two chatted, and the fourth group was finished.
This time Xia Kaikai got up and pulled Zhou Yueshan to the entrance and exit. Wen Jian followed behind and took the coats they had taken off.For the first time, they showed their game uniforms on the field.
Very simple.
But he worked hard on the details.
Xia Kaikai wears a simple white shirt on his upper body, but this time he chose a non-falling fabric. The tailoring with a little leeway will make Xia Kaikai’s clothes slightly swell when he slides, but not too much. The main purpose is to Let Xia Kaikai look stronger, so there is more room for shoulders and chest, but the waist is designed with a large waist. When wrapped tightly in black trousers, the man shown in front of everyone will be a The image of broad shoulders, mantis arms, thick chest, and narrow waist.
The upside-down triangle shape full of masculine charm slides across the ice, but when Xia Kaikai twists up, his waist and buttocks will be extremely soft, causing the whole person to have an indescribable coquettish energy.
In short, once this dress is worn, it looks ordinary, but when Xia Kaikai slides it up, it will definitely make women scream like the male protagonist in "Hot Eyes".
And Zhou Yueshan opposite him is wearing a light red skirt with a hollow design on the chest, which is actually just the background color of the dress itself. Even with a magnifying glass, you can't see the inside, but when you look at it with the surrounding red and crystal sequins, When they are together, the "hollowout" on the chest is particularly conspicuous and very sexy.
But Zhou Yueshan's temperament is sweet, not suitable for too sexy design, and considering the beauty of sliding, so the fabric of the skirt is very light, and some black is sprayed on the appropriate part, which echoes Xia Kaikai's black pants. When performing some rotating movements, there will also be more changes and layers.
Generally speaking, Xia Zhizhou's vision is still very good. He knows the advantages and disadvantages of the two people, and has also considered the effect of the program. , you can see the beauty of this suit.
Xia Kaikai and the others were waiting to play at the entrance and exit position, and there were not many people watching them. The strength of the players in the fifth group was not bad. It was rare to see a pair of players whose skills and artistry were still on the line.
No one noticed that there was a slight commotion at the referee's seat.
Assistant referee O'Neill and Keno sat side by side on the assistant referee's bench. The two could drink and get drunk together, so O'Neill deliberately teased Keno: "Are they the Huaguo players you are optimistic about?"
Jino didn't take it seriously, but frowned: "You should really pay attention to them."
"Of course it will, I'm following them now and really looking forward to their performance."
"O'Neal, stop teasing me about this, or you'll regret it later."
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything, I don't want to regret it." Saying this, O'Neill shook his head. He didn't mean that he didn't like Kino at all, but Kino's words revealed a kind of love between the pair. The players are very good, good enough to enter the championship group and even win medals, which is a bit exaggerated.
At the same time, on the side of the referee team, almost all the referees shifted their gazes to the entrance and exit, and took a few more glances at the pair of Chinese players, with probing eyes.
No matter why Jino reminded them to pay attention to this pair of Chinese players, since they were named, they should always pay more attention.And this extra attention, no one can determine whether it is good or bad, and it may even cause the referee's requirements to be too harsh, and the score is low.
Xia Kaikai and the others were unaware of this.
The two stood at the entrance and exit without speaking. They each lowered their heads to warm up and prepare, while listening to some technical points emphasized by Coach Wen behind them. In a blink of an eye, 2 minutes passed, and the previous group of players finished their competition and they were about to play.
Zhou Yueshan took a deep breath and held Xia Kaikai's hand tightly. The first time she stepped onto the ice, the corners of her mouth curved up, a smile filled her face, and she slid out together with Xia Kaikai.
The wind was blowing head-on, Xia Kaikai's top swelled into a sexy shape, and Zhou Yueshan's skirt also showed elegant lines, just like a bird flying on the wind, finally making its debut at the World Series.
Applause came from a concentrated corner.
It was Su Yu and the others from the Huaguo team, as well as Mu Yuan.
Other than that, the arena was quiet.
No one was playing on their phones or talking in low voices.
But it is true that compared to the unknown pair of Hua country players, the last pair of B country players who performed well, everyone pays more attention to their results at the moment.
The referee also recognized their short program performance.
71 points.
This is a score that may be promoted if you are lucky.
But the pair of contestants were not very satisfied. After seeing the score, they frowned deeply, then waved their hands lazily, and left.
That's it.
The focal length of the line of sight finally came to this pair on the court.
Black hair and black eyes, Asian player.
Looking up, it wasn't Country R, but Country Hua.
Many people immediately lost interest.
Huaguo is most famous for men's singles, and then for pair skating. Even women's singles occasionally has some athletes who enter the championship competition. Only ice dance, and it is difficult to advance. For many years, no pair of players entered the competition. Ranked in the top ten.
In other words, in terms of ice dance, Asian players have always been poor. In terms of ballroom dance ability, they are far behind the world's top players.
Holding hands on the ice, the two people who appeared according to the procedure completed the final field adaptation under the scrutiny of everyone, and then came to the middle of the field.
The camera swept over from above, and there was a competition logo of "Four Continents" in the middle of the white ice surface. Two people dressed in uniform colors stood on top of the logo, posing for the competition.
There was sparse applause.
It's polite.
Although it can be seen from the applause that they are not interested in this pair of Hua Guo, but in order to maintain the enthusiasm of the host, the audience who came to watch the game gave almost the same level of applause to each player.
"The players in the eighth group are the Memi combination, and their world ranking is No.9."
"I've been waiting for Ivan and the others to play, let me see... Oh my God, there are more than 30 people in line."
"Is this a pair of Chinese players?"
"The pair of players just now performed well. If they are lucky, they may be able to enter the final."
Some people in the arena were talking like this, talking about the players who had already played, and talking about the highly anticipated seeded teams that hadn't played yet.They tried their best to keep their voices down, and they didn't want to interfere with the atmosphere of the game, but that contemptuous attitude still spread in the arena.
At this moment, the sound of an accordion sounded in the arena.
The accordion is a keyboard instrument that can be played both solo and accompaniment. When the slender and powerful fingers press the complex keys, as the bellows is stretched, rich harmony can be played with only two hands.
The accordion, as a musical instrument, can play a variety of beautiful melodies in a short period of time with the improvement of the player's skills, sometimes high and passionate, sometimes euphemistic and low, and sometimes crisp and bright.It can often be heard in Spanish songs. It can not only play the heroic and fearless bullfighter in the bullring, but also deduce the romantic dance music with Spanish style.
"Hot Eyes" is a romantic Spanish matador dance song.
Under the curtain slowly opened by the accordion, it was as if the sparkling sea surface was blown by the sea breeze, reflecting the light of the setting sun, bringing a ray of coolness and romance at night.
The Hua Guo players on the field twisted their bodies and slipped out amidst the sound of music.
started their game.
The audience looked at it dispensably...
The author has something to say:
Su Yu: Familiar game rhythm, one chapter foreshadowing, one chapter for competition, one chapter for scoring, I want to do it in one go, the day after tomorrow.
Xia Kaikai: Hey, it's time to steal the show.
Su Yu: Sorry, I forgot.
Xia Kaikai smiled: Hello, hero.
Su Yu: How are you, the hero.
【Yan Bingbing didn't want to say anything and threw two Bingbing eyes at you. 】
The author rubbed his hands: Ice Cub, do you want to be reborn?Still want to cross?A successful character, an absolute hero!And I promise to give you a perfect attack... Well, or do you want a cute little shou?
Ice dance competition in the evening.
Although one after the other, but all in one day, the time is still tense.
Xia Kaikai rested for 10 minutes after putting down his luggage, and was called out by Wen Jian. It was those same people, Mu Yuan and Danny also appeared to accompany them to the arena to warm up.
The large commercial vehicle drove the crowd for less than 10 minutes, and finally came to the front of the skating hall.
This is a national-level skating rink, a large skating rink that can accommodate 1 people to watch the game, and it is completely different from last year's club league.The skating rink standing on the square looks like a huge silver egg. The view around the building is wide. There are many hot air balloons and ribbons hanging on the square. There are soldiers from country E standing at the gate, on both sides of the road, and in the square. Pass on patrol.
There were no tourists playing in the square. There should be a game going on at this time, and the spectators had all entered the arena. So when the sunlight fell on the white and clean cement tiles of the square, there was even a sense of glaring chill.
The commercial vehicle pulled them in a big circle outside the square of the skating hall, and then drove into the gate, pulling them all the way to the side of the huge silver egg.
When getting out of the car, a pair of soldiers came over and asked them to show their ID cards, and someone held up a device to sweep their faces before they were allowed to pass.
Xia Kaikai followed the procedures step by step to prove his identity as a contestant. Even Mu Yuan and Danny were members of the contestant team and passed the inspection quickly.
While waiting to go again, someone pulled his sleeve, Xia Kaikai turned his head to look, it was Zhou Yueshan.
Zhou Yueshan said: "Xia Kai, I'm nervous, what should I do?"
Xia Kaikai looked at her.
Zhou Yueshan rubbed her heart and frowned: "Speaking of which, this is my first World Series. I haven't even participated in a domestic competition this season. I'm so nervous that I can't breathe."
Xia Kaikai smiled and said: "It's not alone, I will accompany you on the field, just look at me, as if you are in love with me, wholeheartedly..."
"Cough!" Mu Yuan coughed dryly with a cold face.
Zhou Yueshan shrugged, stuck out her tongue, and walked away holding back a smile.
Xia Kaikai sighed, this jealous person really still minds that he "once" confessed his love to Zhou Yueshan.
Entering the arena, I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but I feel that the style is rigorous, and the work area, referee area, and media area are clearly distinguished. Although there are not many spectators, there is still a feeling of being suppressed by a certain momentum.
Xia Kaikai moved his body, and the suppressed feeling disappeared.
To say that the most advantage for him to continue to participate in the competition after being reborn is probably not in the dance, but in his endurance on the field. Not only will such a scene not make him nervous, but it will make him calm down faster. Quickly adjust the status.
Now the game is still going on.
It's a pair skating event.
Pair skating has always been Hua Country's strong point. Country E hasn't had good players in the past two years, so it has been reduced to competing at various bad times.
When Xia Kaikai and the others came in, the pair skating free skating competition had been going on for almost two hours, and now it happened to be the championship group competition, and there should be no two groups left.
Xia Kaikai and the others found a seat at random. There were empty seats everywhere in the arena, and they just sat down. Everyone sat in three rows and just looked at it like that.
Although pair skating is also a two-person event, it is different from ice dancing in many ways.Pair skating continues the elements of men's singles and women's singles sports competition. The players compete on the court with skills, and lifts are over shoulders, which is not allowed in ice dance.There is also the joint rotation that is often seen in single-person events, which will become a technical requirement for synchronous rotation in double-person events. It is a necessary movement, and this technical movement is not available in ice dancing.As well as the twirling of throwing jumps, synchronized jumps, etc., these are different from ice dancing.
The most fundamental scoring principle of ice dance is to combine ballroom dancing and ice skills. As for the so-called technical points, they are just for the sake of adding luster to the show.
But to say, pair skating is more difficult than ice dancing?
That is layman.
Those difficult skills in pair skating are difficult for ordinary people to understand.However, the expressive power of ice dancing and the picky choreography of gliding under the feet are the difficulties of ice dancing. People who don’t know enough about ice dancing, or audiences who don’t have enough aesthetic ability of dancing, can’t tell which ice dancing show is better. good.They will only say, wow, this ice dance is really artistic, wow, this ice dance is really passionate, wow, this ice dance is so cute... But how can they say it is full of mood?Why are you passionate?How cute?Unable to speak!
The movement of ice dance conveys a round and flawless beauty that is almost perfect.
When watching ice dance, you don’t even have to worry about whether these players fail in a certain movement, so you can watch from the beginning to the end without distraction, indulge in it, and finally recall the message that the ice dancers want to pass on to you at the end of the music , and then smiled heartfeltly, saying sincerely, it’s so beautiful.
Xia Kaikai watched the performance of the pair skaters on the field, and his eyes wandered around the players.
Pair skating also requires synchronicity.
Pair skating requires more skill.
But in terms of physical coordination and display ability, there is simply no skill at all.
Obviously, when a knot is connected after twirling, if the two of them can lower their waists, tilt their hips, tie the loop on the ice with the music, and then stand up slowly with their chests straight at the end of the movement, This must be beautiful.
But there is no pair. After the toss jump, the female player simply slid back and performed the next technical move with her male partner... It seems that the continuous step in the middle is just a continuous step, just to wait for the next one. The things that had to be added before the technical moves came, and they just finished skating. Even in order to connect to a synchronized triple axel, the pair of skaters on the ice skated backwards for a full second and a half.
One and a half seconds!
In the eyes of ice dancers, it is enough to make two or three movements, and the steps of the feet will not be lower than two changes. The so-called "standby time" is equivalent to "suicide" in ice dance.
This is the difference and gap between ice dancing and pair skating.
Immediately afterwards, the No.6 player in the championship group came on stage.
Also the last skater in a free skate.
It turned out to be the pair skaters from Huaguo.
Jiang Yangbo and Huo Xuening.
This pair is also a legend.
Huo Xuening had been skating pairs for more than ten years, but four years ago her partner split her legs, and their pair also broke up.
Huo Xuening insisted on staying in the national team. First, she skated with Su Yu at the World Championships and won a double spot in the Olympic Games in the second year. Then she joined hands with Jiang Yangbo in the second year. This is the third year that the two have cooperated. I practiced for three years.This year, he finally made his way in the domestic grand prix and won the national championship. Then he came to the "Four Continents" and successfully entered the championship group competition.
Their free skating program is "Pirates of the Caribbean". The clothes of the two are black with sequins. The story is about the love-hate entanglement between a man and a woman. By the way, it looks like an avenger. The rhythm and atmosphere are constant. Lifting up slowly.
Xia Kaikai watched halfway through, but it was really difficult to interpret. The artistic part of pair skating was far worse than ice dancing, so he stopped trying to comprehend it. In short, it was not Gao Piaoyuan's love, but the more passionate one.
But the technical movements of the two are quite difficult.
Jiang Yangbo's strength is too strong, holding his ninety-pound female partner is like playing, especially the throwing, jumping and twirling movement, the next second when Huo Xuening's ice blade fell steadily to the ground, the scene exploded. There was crazy applause.
Toss, jump and twirl around!
Huo Xuening was thrown up by a full meter, and she was able to twirl around with ease. Before landing, she still had the strength to adjust her body, so that this movement could be completed cleanly and flawlessly!
"Okay!" Everyone around me knew figure skating, and they could tell the difficulty of this move at a glance.
And it's not just a question of high difficulty, the key is that if someone does well, the score will be high, and if the score is high, getting a good ranking is also a credit to the teammates.Even Xia Kaikai applauded them sincerely.
It is impossible for him to skate in pair skating. He has not been able to lift Zhou Yueshan very smoothly so far. I know how hard it is for me, so if he wants to throw Zhou Yueshan out for a twirl, it will take at most two and a half laps to land.
But Jiang Yangbo's upper body strength is terrifying to look at. When his thick arms are doing throwing and lifting movements, the moment the muscles bulge, it almost feels like the clothes are going to be torn.
Such things as strength are also talents. Some people are naturally easy to develop strength, while others are not.
Xia Kaikai, regardless of his previous life or present life, has always followed the dexterous route. He really doesn't understand what a powerful force is.
In a blink of an eye, Jiang Yangbo easily lifted Huo Xuening up with one hand. Huo Xuening clasped his fingers together, as if he was directly on the ground, without shaking or shaking. finished.
Another applause.
And the most beautiful thing is that Jiang Yangbo's men's singles turned to pair skating, not only can lift people, but also can jump. The two synchronized hooks for three weeks and then outside ice for three weeks, which once again made the audience applaud.
Staying for the last synchronous joint spin, successfully ended their game.
Three years to sharpen a sword.
In the past three years, Jiang Yangbo and Huo Xuening even disappeared for a while, but three years later, they finally successfully stood on the world stage.
It also allowed Huaguo's pair skating to maintain a sufficiently good ranking again.
Jiang Yangbo and Huo Xuening won the bronze medal in this competition!
It is a pity to lose a pair of American couples and British roommates.
After analysis, Jiang Yangbo and Huo Xuening's skills are very difficult, and they have really worked hard on synchronization. The part they lost is in their artistic expression. Jiang Yangbo may be too focused on strength, the lines are too hard, the movements It's all straightforward, and Huo Xuening also lacks dancing skills.
At this time, Xia Kaikai was thinking about how to make the players from Huaguo hide their flaws.
First of all, when choosing a program, you should not choose songs that are too soft. Just like this time "Pirates of the Caribbean" should be tailor-made for them. The impassioned songs are more suitable for Jiang Yangbo's straight-forward line. In the future, we can only continue to develop in this direction.But if you want to change the dance skills, cooperate with the Huaxing Group for dance training, etc., it’s not enough...Xia Kaikai thinks that he should work hard on the details of the choreography, make the tail of each movement rounder, and handle more small skills. It will be much better.
But these were what Xia Kaikai thought. After the awards ceremony, Jiang Yangbo and Huo Xuening came over to say hello. Xia Kaikai shook hands, but didn't say anything nonsense.
We didn't meet each other before, and we will meet each other on the field in the future. If we really want to talk about it, we will only talk about it in shallow words, which is annoying.
competition is over.
The ice surface is not in a hurry to cover the ice, and players who are ready to familiarize themselves with the venue and warm up can go on the ice.
Xia Kaikai and the others are not the only pair of ice dancers on the ice, but because of Su Yu's relationship, they have attracted quite a lot of attention.
When a contestant came to say hello, Su Yu would usually introduce it, and Xia Kaikai shook hands in cooperation, and in a blink of an eye, he saw Su Yu looking at him with that probing look again.
Xia Kaikai was not feeling well, so he took Zhou Yueshan a little further away, avoiding Su Yu's eyes.
"Look over there." While skating, Zhou Yueshan motioned Xia Kaikai to turn her head to look, and saw Yan Bingbing training alone far away.Since meeting with Su Yu and the others by accident, Yan Bingbing has drifted away from the group, and it was too obvious that she didn't want to have any intersection with Su Yu and the others.
"What happened to the men's singles side? Do you know?" Zhou Yueshan asked curiously.
Xia Kaikai said, "I heard it's about the Olympic quota."
"Olympics? What happened the year before last? Are you still ignoring each other now?"
"The Olympic Games are held every four years, and an athlete can participate in several Olympic Games in a lifetime. I can understand Yan Bingbing's thoughts."
Zhou Yueshan nodded, sighed, and stopped talking.
Xia Kaikai and the others didn't go to the men's singles match in the afternoon.
I took a nap at noon, adjusted my state, and opened my eyes again. The short program of the men's singles has been compared.
Not unexpectedly, the short program is still Su Yu, Wu Yi ranked fourteenth in the short program, Yan Bingbing sixteenth, in the free skating competition, Su Yu will compete in the championship group, and Wu Yi and Yan Bingbing competed in the third group.
I ate dinner at the hotel, but it was an athlete chef hired by Mu Yuan alone. His skills may not be as good as that of a super five-star chef, but the key is that the ingredients are safe and safe. Anyway, it’s just something to fill your stomach. You can eat anything at this time OK.
Xia Kaikai and Zhou Yueshan didn't eat much, and there was more than an hour before the competition, so they needed to control their food intake.
Immediately afterwards, the group went to the skating hall again.
The ice has not been tidied up yet, and there are potholes everywhere, which shows the intensity of the men's singles competition in the afternoon.There are already ice dancers on the ice, and one of them is the Arabella combination from the UK.
Zhou Yueshan said: "Look, the Arabel siblings."
Xia Kaikai turned his head to look, the siblings are very young, both of them are only 20 years old, the outlines do look similar, the long lines make their movements on the ice beautiful, the younger brother tried two It's easy to move.
Looking to the side, the ice dancers around me are all young, and some of them may have just been promoted to the adult group. Unlike last year's club league, there are no players around 30 years old. These young athletes are not only more youthful in appearance Beautiful, the most important thing is the endless power contained in that body, which is also their potential. This age is just right for them to learn, memorize and analyze better, and then make more outstanding moves.
The age of 22 to 28 is the golden age for ice dancers, and Xia Kaikai and Zhou Yueshan are also in this age group, and it is time to make achievements.
Although Zhou Yueshan said she was nervous, it was because she was cautious about the first World Series in her life, so she was very serious about the last warm-up before the game, and she would repeatedly ask Xia Kaikai to cooperate with her in the exercises that she was not good at. , I will also cooperate with Xia Kaikai to do some lift training, and then skate with Xia Kaikai to every angle on the ice, using the ice blades under my feet and my eyes to feel the field.
An hour passed quickly, and the competition announced that the contestants would get off the ice, and the ice would start to be covered with ice.
Simultaneously.
Spectators also started to come in.
Sure enough, there were a lot of spectators filing in.
Some of them are ice dance fans from all over the world, but there are also many Meaux locals buying a ticket to pass the time after a long day of work.
In twenty minutes or so, one-third of the auditorium was filled.
The appeal of the short program is only this level, but even if there is only one-third of the audience, there are still 3000 people in the arena.
This number is enough to explain the attractiveness of the World Series, and it also makes people feel the pressure of the competition again.
Xia Kaikai and Zhou Yueshan went to change clothes. After changing out, Zhou Yueshan sat there and began to put on makeup. She was using makeup to adjust her state.Xia Kaikai had nothing to do and didn't want to listen to the music of the game, so he chatted with Wen Jian in a low voice.
There is no need to draw lots for the short program, just compete in the order of registration.
Xia Kaikai and the others waited for the computer to report their names in the early morning, and they ranked sixth on the registration form. This will also be their order of playing in the game.And during the warm-up, Wen Jian had already signed them in and reconfirmed the music for the competition. Now all they had to do was wait for the competition to start.
As country E time approached [-]:[-] p.m., the arena gradually quieted down. Music played on the radio, and the staff stopped running around. Then, the referee appeared amidst applause.
The nine referees take their seats, and the chief referee sits in the middle. When they sit firmly, it means that the game is about to start.
Zhou Yueshan had already finished her makeup. While listening to the music, she lowered her head and cut her nails. Suddenly, her hands trembled, and a drop of blood quickly appeared on her deep-cut nails. with.
"Are you okay?" Xia Kaikai saw it.
Zhou Yueshan shook her head and said, "It's intentional. Appropriate pain stimulation will make me calm down. My head is a little swollen now. Let the bloodletting be enough."
Xia Kaikai raised his eyebrows, "The way you decompress is really strange."
Zhou Yueshan said: "Whether it's weird or not, as long as it works."
"Will it work?" Xia Kaikai asked, seeing Zhou Yueshan pulled out her finger, the wound was no longer bleeding, she frowned and wanted to poke the wound with nail clippers, Xia Kaikai raised her hand to stop her: "Go, go warm up, We're in group six."
Zhou Yueshan took out paper from the backpack under her feet and wiped it, while going backstage with Xia Kaikai.
In the background, they still need to sing their names once, and then they are put into the preparation area in batches by the staff.
So Xia Kaikai, who played No.6, walked around the background and arrived at the preparation area in a few minutes.
The preparation area is just next to the entrance and exit, on the same level as the ice surface. At the bottom of the stands, there are not many seats. In a single row, you can see the performance of the players on the ice when you stand up straight.
There is a lot of space left here for the players to make the final land preparations. Only six groups of players are allowed in each time, and the teams will be separated by a little distance to form a small space that will not interfere with each other.
The first group of players is ready at the position of the entrance and exit ice surface. The other players are either sitting or standing, and many people are wearing skates. In short, they are all busy.
And Zhou Yueshan's expression was very relaxed since she started to move until she was sitting here. Excessive calm before the game will make people think too much, which is not a good thing.
Seven o'clock sharp.
The music over the arena disappeared.
The voice of the host of the contest sounded on the radio.
"Good evening, contestants and spectators. Welcome to Meaux. Tonight is the ice dance short program competition of the "Four Continents Figure Skating Championships."
"Now I would like to introduce to you the referee tonight, from Germany..."
Every time a referee is called, that referee will stand up, bow to the audience in the front and rear directions, and then sit down again.
At this time, there will be applause in the arena.
After the introduction of the nine referees, the chief referee stood up to give a speech, and made a fist-swearing oath for the fairness of the competition.
After this series of procedures, the pair of No. [-] players who stood at the entrance and exit position in advance, their body movements were already a little unnaturally stiff. They tried in vain to relieve it by squatting, bending over, etc., but the effect was obvious. Not so much.
"Ice dance short program, the first pair of contestants, Carida Anthony and Jack Harrison from country A, short program "Hot Eyes"."
Xia Kaikai and Zhou Yueshan paused for a moment, then continued.
Ice dance short programs are limited to the type of dance, so collisions are very common. As the saying goes, collisions are not terrible, and whoever is worse is embarrassed. Therefore, everyone skates almost the same program, which is more conducive to the selection of the judges. Out of the really good athletes, into the next game.
Familiar music played quickly on the ice. Zhou Yueshan, who lowered her head to adjust the laces of her skates and shoes, didn't even look at it, but Xia Kaikai watched it seriously.
Well……
After watching it for 30 seconds, Xia Kaikai had come to a conclusion.
First of all, the songs are not exactly the same. If the 3-minute song has to be compressed into 2 minutes, it must be re-made.And the abilities of the country A group are really average, the synchronization of their feet is not enough, the body language is not full enough, and there are some problems with the choreography. The positioning of bullfighting and flamenco is very vague. In short, Xia Kaikai feels no pressure.
The final score is really average, only 64 points, this score is not allowed to enter the free skating score.
After seeing the score, the two were very disappointed, and finally comforted each other and left.
The program of the second group of contestants is "Spanish Matador March". The impassioned music did not arouse the emotions of the audience. Their own abilities are not enough, but they still have to choose this kind of music that has no room to keep up with the consequences of the rhythm. It's just that the skating is messy, not to mention the synchronicity, it can be said that one-third of the time is either rushed or slow. In short, for Xia Kaikai who is very sensitive to rhythm, this show is simply terrible.
The referee is also very bad.
57 points, directly sentenced to death.
Xia Kaikai put on the earphones, not daring to watch anymore.
Where did these players get the confidence to participate in ice dancing competitions?
Is it because of skating?So I felt that ice dancing without technical moves on the ice is more slippery, so I chose ice dancing?
The dance that is always out of beat is almost magical, destroying a person's sense of rhythm.
If Xia Kaikai didn't want his head to be filled with notes from other players when he was playing, he had no choice but to stop watching.
Zhou Yueshan looked up and saw that Xia Kaikai was also wearing earphones and smiled at him.
Xia Kaikai shrugged, saying that he couldn't bear it.
Then Zhou Yueshan pulled the earphones of the two and said: "In fact, many countries do not have systematic ice sports teaching, but there are competition places, so the level of many athletes is very poor. Let's talk about the last group of free skaters and the championship group. It’s all very different, if you don’t want to be led off, don’t watch the game.”
Xia Kaikai laughed and said, "I'm not watching their games, I'm looking for self-confidence in them."
Zhou Yueshan froze, then thought about this possibility, and said in confusion: "Is it effective?"
Xia Kaikai was amused by this silly girl, raised his hand to rub her head, and said, "Guess."
The two chatted, and the fourth group was finished.
This time Xia Kaikai got up and pulled Zhou Yueshan to the entrance and exit. Wen Jian followed behind and took the coats they had taken off.For the first time, they showed their game uniforms on the field.
Very simple.
But he worked hard on the details.
Xia Kaikai wears a simple white shirt on his upper body, but this time he chose a non-falling fabric. The tailoring with a little leeway will make Xia Kaikai’s clothes slightly swell when he slides, but not too much. The main purpose is to Let Xia Kaikai look stronger, so there is more room for shoulders and chest, but the waist is designed with a large waist. When wrapped tightly in black trousers, the man shown in front of everyone will be a The image of broad shoulders, mantis arms, thick chest, and narrow waist.
The upside-down triangle shape full of masculine charm slides across the ice, but when Xia Kaikai twists up, his waist and buttocks will be extremely soft, causing the whole person to have an indescribable coquettish energy.
In short, once this dress is worn, it looks ordinary, but when Xia Kaikai slides it up, it will definitely make women scream like the male protagonist in "Hot Eyes".
And Zhou Yueshan opposite him is wearing a light red skirt with a hollow design on the chest, which is actually just the background color of the dress itself. Even with a magnifying glass, you can't see the inside, but when you look at it with the surrounding red and crystal sequins, When they are together, the "hollowout" on the chest is particularly conspicuous and very sexy.
But Zhou Yueshan's temperament is sweet, not suitable for too sexy design, and considering the beauty of sliding, so the fabric of the skirt is very light, and some black is sprayed on the appropriate part, which echoes Xia Kaikai's black pants. When performing some rotating movements, there will also be more changes and layers.
Generally speaking, Xia Zhizhou's vision is still very good. He knows the advantages and disadvantages of the two people, and has also considered the effect of the program. , you can see the beauty of this suit.
Xia Kaikai and the others were waiting to play at the entrance and exit position, and there were not many people watching them. The strength of the players in the fifth group was not bad. It was rare to see a pair of players whose skills and artistry were still on the line.
No one noticed that there was a slight commotion at the referee's seat.
Assistant referee O'Neill and Keno sat side by side on the assistant referee's bench. The two could drink and get drunk together, so O'Neill deliberately teased Keno: "Are they the Huaguo players you are optimistic about?"
Jino didn't take it seriously, but frowned: "You should really pay attention to them."
"Of course it will, I'm following them now and really looking forward to their performance."
"O'Neal, stop teasing me about this, or you'll regret it later."
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything, I don't want to regret it." Saying this, O'Neill shook his head. He didn't mean that he didn't like Kino at all, but Kino's words revealed a kind of love between the pair. The players are very good, good enough to enter the championship group and even win medals, which is a bit exaggerated.
At the same time, on the side of the referee team, almost all the referees shifted their gazes to the entrance and exit, and took a few more glances at the pair of Chinese players, with probing eyes.
No matter why Jino reminded them to pay attention to this pair of Chinese players, since they were named, they should always pay more attention.And this extra attention, no one can determine whether it is good or bad, and it may even cause the referee's requirements to be too harsh, and the score is low.
Xia Kaikai and the others were unaware of this.
The two stood at the entrance and exit without speaking. They each lowered their heads to warm up and prepare, while listening to some technical points emphasized by Coach Wen behind them. In a blink of an eye, 2 minutes passed, and the previous group of players finished their competition and they were about to play.
Zhou Yueshan took a deep breath and held Xia Kaikai's hand tightly. The first time she stepped onto the ice, the corners of her mouth curved up, a smile filled her face, and she slid out together with Xia Kaikai.
The wind was blowing head-on, Xia Kaikai's top swelled into a sexy shape, and Zhou Yueshan's skirt also showed elegant lines, just like a bird flying on the wind, finally making its debut at the World Series.
Applause came from a concentrated corner.
It was Su Yu and the others from the Huaguo team, as well as Mu Yuan.
Other than that, the arena was quiet.
No one was playing on their phones or talking in low voices.
But it is true that compared to the unknown pair of Hua country players, the last pair of B country players who performed well, everyone pays more attention to their results at the moment.
The referee also recognized their short program performance.
71 points.
This is a score that may be promoted if you are lucky.
But the pair of contestants were not very satisfied. After seeing the score, they frowned deeply, then waved their hands lazily, and left.
That's it.
The focal length of the line of sight finally came to this pair on the court.
Black hair and black eyes, Asian player.
Looking up, it wasn't Country R, but Country Hua.
Many people immediately lost interest.
Huaguo is most famous for men's singles, and then for pair skating. Even women's singles occasionally has some athletes who enter the championship competition. Only ice dance, and it is difficult to advance. For many years, no pair of players entered the competition. Ranked in the top ten.
In other words, in terms of ice dance, Asian players have always been poor. In terms of ballroom dance ability, they are far behind the world's top players.
Holding hands on the ice, the two people who appeared according to the procedure completed the final field adaptation under the scrutiny of everyone, and then came to the middle of the field.
The camera swept over from above, and there was a competition logo of "Four Continents" in the middle of the white ice surface. Two people dressed in uniform colors stood on top of the logo, posing for the competition.
There was sparse applause.
It's polite.
Although it can be seen from the applause that they are not interested in this pair of Hua Guo, but in order to maintain the enthusiasm of the host, the audience who came to watch the game gave almost the same level of applause to each player.
"The players in the eighth group are the Memi combination, and their world ranking is No.9."
"I've been waiting for Ivan and the others to play, let me see... Oh my God, there are more than 30 people in line."
"Is this a pair of Chinese players?"
"The pair of players just now performed well. If they are lucky, they may be able to enter the final."
Some people in the arena were talking like this, talking about the players who had already played, and talking about the highly anticipated seeded teams that hadn't played yet.They tried their best to keep their voices down, and they didn't want to interfere with the atmosphere of the game, but that contemptuous attitude still spread in the arena.
At this moment, the sound of an accordion sounded in the arena.
The accordion is a keyboard instrument that can be played both solo and accompaniment. When the slender and powerful fingers press the complex keys, as the bellows is stretched, rich harmony can be played with only two hands.
The accordion, as a musical instrument, can play a variety of beautiful melodies in a short period of time with the improvement of the player's skills, sometimes high and passionate, sometimes euphemistic and low, and sometimes crisp and bright.It can often be heard in Spanish songs. It can not only play the heroic and fearless bullfighter in the bullring, but also deduce the romantic dance music with Spanish style.
"Hot Eyes" is a romantic Spanish matador dance song.
Under the curtain slowly opened by the accordion, it was as if the sparkling sea surface was blown by the sea breeze, reflecting the light of the setting sun, bringing a ray of coolness and romance at night.
The Hua Guo players on the field twisted their bodies and slipped out amidst the sound of music.
started their game.
The audience looked at it dispensably...
The author has something to say:
Su Yu: Familiar game rhythm, one chapter foreshadowing, one chapter for competition, one chapter for scoring, I want to do it in one go, the day after tomorrow.
Xia Kaikai: Hey, it's time to steal the show.
Su Yu: Sorry, I forgot.
Xia Kaikai smiled: Hello, hero.
Su Yu: How are you, the hero.
【Yan Bingbing didn't want to say anything and threw two Bingbing eyes at you. 】
The author rubbed his hands: Ice Cub, do you want to be reborn?Still want to cross?A successful character, an absolute hero!And I promise to give you a perfect attack... Well, or do you want a cute little shou?
