I'm still dancing today

Chapter 93 Competitors [VIP]

That's right.

It is true that most of these ice fans who went abroad to watch the game came for Su Yu.

They usually separate after watching the competition, whether it is traveling in the local area or continuing to watch other competitions, but Huaguo ice fans have always been the least number of ice dancers.

However, after Xia Kaikai and Zhou Yueshan won No.4 in the short program, the news quickly spread throughout the circle of ice fans, and even the ice fans who were chasing the game abroad were screened, so the men's singles competition in the morning has not yet started Well, someone in the ice fan group suggested to continue watching the ice dance in the afternoon.

"Why?" Not everyone is so well-informed.

"That's right, I don't even understand what the ice dance is about."

"I can understand it, but it's boring. It's all foreigners skating. If I have time, I'll find a tour group to play in Meaux."

There will be a popular science soon.

"You don't know that we skated No.4 in the ice dance short program yesterday?"

"Xia Kaikai and Zhou Yueshan, club players, the bullfight short program is so cool, I've watched it no less than ten times."

"Can I say that when I saw the final score, I burst into tears? Since when did our ice dancers from China enter the championship group?"

"Isn't it?"

"Really?"

"Wait, let me understand."

"Understand what, watch the game this afternoon, buy tickets now, let's cheer them on!"

Every time Su Yu goes abroad to compete, depending on the distance, there will be at least a hundred fans following him. In the men's singles free skating competition in the Olympic year, even half of the audience seats were occupied by Chinese audiences.

It's not that Huaguo doesn't have rich and leisure sports fans, but the previous players are not worth chasing, so it's rare that there is a player who won't be disappointed and has the ability to lock in No.1. These sports fans will naturally chase after them all over the world .

Moreover, because these sports fans are generally older, they will not be the only fans of a certain player. Besides, we are all Chinese when we go abroad. This is the consensus of everyone.

Therefore, most of the ice fans who came to cheer for the men's singles in the morning bought tickets for the ice dance competition. Everyone gathered together to cheer for Xia Kaikai and Zhou Yueshan, who were actually very unfamiliar.

The distance is too far to see the face clearly?

For the so-called!

See the guy with black hair?It is our compatriots!

Xia Kaikai!Zhou Yueshan!come on!

The shaking was so strong that Xia Kaikai and Zhou Yueshan could clearly see where Huaguo ice fans were when they looked up.

Zhou Yueshan grasped the hand on Xia Kaikai's arm slightly, her face was excited, and then she smiled in surprise.

Xia Kaikai is also laughing, seeing his compatriots cheering for him when he goes abroad, this feeling is very special, like having some solid support behind him, although there may be some pressure, but it also makes people want to work harder, no Live up to expectations.

Wen Jian hadn't disturbed their pre-match preparations before, he just waited in a place not far or near, and would step forward to ask when necessary.At this time, he was walking two steps ahead, carrying two large backpacks in one hand, both of which contained two pairs of skate shoes. The weight of nearly twenty catties did not affect him at all, and he walked like a tiger.

Hearing Zhou Yueshan's words at this time, he squinted his eyes and looked over, and was shocked: "Do you all have fans?"

Zhou Yueshan was amused and said, "Ice fans are different from fans."

"Okay, okay." Wen Jian smiled and said three times in a row, but he didn't say anything.He walked in front, found an empty spot and stopped, then hugged his backpack in his arms, unzipped it, carefully placed the two pairs of skates by their feet, and said, "Perform well and let the fans see you Strength."

Zhou Yueshan thanked her and took the skates, repeating again: "This is an ice fan."

Wen Jian was actually intentionally making fun of it. Knowing that Zhou Yueshan was nervous, he teased her to divert her attention. Zhou Yueshan bickered with Wen Jian and put on the skates unconsciously.

Xia Kaikai didn't speak, he was looking for the figure in the crowd, and after seeing that person in a fixed place, he was dazed for a moment.

He knew that Mu Yuan was also looking at him, as if staring at him across thousands of mountains and rivers.

The gaze was firm and persistent, as if that person had been looking at him like that since a long time ago, focused, affectionate, and gazing.

Xia Kaikai's heart was soft, he raised his hand, tapped his lips with his fingers, and then gently popped out, blowing a kiss.

It was a strong impulse to let him respond to Mu Yuan's emotions. Even under the watchful eyes of everyone, the reserved and self-respecting culture of the Chinese people failed to restrain him, but the openness and freedom of the American country urged him.

Blowing the kiss out, I felt a little embarrassed again.

Xia Kaikai simply lowered his head and put on his skates.

Most people didn't see it. The players on the field performed very well. A small number of people saw it, but they didn't know why. Only the man in the stands raised his eyebrows, and then his eyes sparkled, as if showing off to the people around him. Dr. Danny said, "Did he just blow me a kiss?"

Dr. Danny didn't see it, his attention was also on the ice, and he asked in confusion: "What?"

Mu Yuan hooked the corner of his mouth and repeated tirelessly: "I said, just now KK blew a kiss to me."

"Oh."

"Oh?" Mu Yuan raised his eyebrows, quite dissatisfied with Danny's handling.

Stared at by his own patient, Danny finally said in confusion, "What the hell is going on with you? Why haven't you slept yet? I mean, it was just blowing kisses." After a pause, Danny said sharply, "You're intoxicated Are you unwilling to come out in your own fantasy? Afraid of being hurt? Afraid of being rejected? Or afraid of something? Victor, if you can't tell me what you think, I can't judge your condition, you ..."

"Shut up and watch the game!" Mu Yuan's face sank, his green eyes were full of gloom, and all the good mood was gone.

Danny was still trying to persuade his patient. He felt that the other party had concealed some key things from him. These secrets affected his diagnosis, and the most incomprehensible thing was that when Victor arrived in Huaguo with full confidence, But two months have passed, and his love life has hardly made any progress. This kind of situation of walking on a tightrope is frightening.

But obviously, the man next to him didn't want to talk about it, and he even drove him back to his country, firmly believing that his disease was under control.

But in fact, depression at Victor's level is very difficult to cure, and may even require life-long drug treatment. Since the last depression and suicide, Victor has not stopped taking medicine for a day. The reason why he is so energetic now , are the effects of drugs.

Sighing, Danny knew it was not a good time to talk, so he could only turn his attention to the field.

Unknowingly, the contestants in the second group have finished the competition, and the contestants in the championship group are on the stage.

The first group to play is the young British group, the Arabella couple.

The couple, who have been holding hands since they were 12 years old, have been compared from the junior group to the adult group. The year when they confirmed their relationship at the age of 16, they were blessed by the whole of Britain.

Their tacit understanding is their biggest trump card, and because of their relationship as a couple, most of the love-themed shows are more intimate and lingering.Moreover, the two of them have developed a deep understanding of dance since they were young, so their body movements are very coordinated. It seems that even if it is not as popular as Xia Kaikai, it is still pleasing to the eye.

Such a level is the basic requirement for entering the championship group. Before Xia Kaikai and the others appeared, people were full of expectations because of the talent and age of this pair of young players. It is almost conceivable that the older generation will be in a few years later. After the ice dancers retired, they dominated the moment.

When they played, the applause was loud.

When it came to the competition in the championship group, every program was excellent and worthy of full attention, so the applause sounded, and the two completed their debut on the ice. When the music was about to start, the applause gradually disappeared.

Quiet.

wait.

Then, melodious music sounded, and the two slid out.

This is a piano piece composed by a British composer called "Above the Clouds".It roughly describes a couple who met and loved each other during World War II. They met by the emerald green lake, fell in love with the alpine grassland, and separated on the small bridge. Therefore, in the era of wars, the lovers missed each other. The letters are all parting feelings, until the end of the war, the heroine took their grown-up children and buried her beloved on the verdant and bright plateau, parting from life and death.

"Above the Clouds" has never been selected in any film and television drama, but it often appears in stage dramas. The duration of this song is actually 12 minutes and 36 seconds. It has youthful turmoil, romantic feelings, and those Concerned and lyrical, until life and death, the content is very rich.

But the free skating time is only 4 minutes, so Arabella's "Above the Clouds" only has the first half, or strictly speaking, only the love part, so although it is suitable for the age of the two people and their current relationship, but Because there is a little change and a sense of hierarchy, it makes people feel a little regretful.

Sure enough, the final score was as Xia Kaikai expected. After the competition, the referee gave them 115.51 points for the free skating program and 83.04 points for the short program. The final score was 198.55 points.

Of course, this score is very high. The highest score in the last Olympic Games was only 199 points.However, last year's World Championships' highest score reached 207 points, a new record created by the pair of French players.The Olympic Games and the World Championships generally have the problem of relatively serious scoring problems. Therefore, according to the rules of previous years, the highest score in the "Four Continents" competition held this time should exceed 200 points.

After all, players are improving and their skills are developing, and their scores will definitely increase year by year.

198 points.

Seeing this score, although the audience gave them warm applause, the two British young men were somewhat dissatisfied. Arabella bit her lip and hugged her boyfriend, rubbing against each other for a while, in the comfort of her boyfriend, Only then did she reveal her angelic face, smiling and waving at the camera.

The players in the championship group are the strongest. Even though Arabella and the others are dissatisfied, their scores are undoubtedly at the top of the standings, and they surpassed No.2 by nearly [-] points.

The strength of this world-class ranked player is simply crushing for the players of the second echelon.

The farewell applause continued until the next contestant showed up, so the applause turned into welcome and anticipation.

This is a pair of ice dancers from Switzerland, ranked ninth in the world.

The two are obviously very good at bullfighting, so they successfully advanced to the championship group competition in the short program. This is also the first time the two have competed in the championship group since they participated in the competition.

The pressure is still great.

The program they brought was called "The Cry of the Alps", which is a modern folk dance song in Switzerland. The clothes of the two of them were also in line with the style of the Swiss festival. The male contestants wore shirts and short jackets with slightly extended sleeves. The female contestants are silk tops, midi skirts and velvet vests.

Their dance moves are somewhat original, and the regional culture is very distinctive, which is why the judges have to do their homework in advance. If the dance judges don't understand them, how to score them.

But in fact, even if the referees have done their homework in advance, there are still some doubts about this program, mainly because the two contestants did not integrate folk dance and ice skating very well, although there are very clear differences in some prayer movements. Characteristic, but a little off the beat.

The referees couldn't understand it, and they thought it was ugly, which suppressed a lot of their artistic points. In the end, the two only scored 178 points, and the ranking fell to the sixth place again.

When the scores came out, both contestants covered their faces, and the female contestant even shed tears.

Free skating is not really free, the selection of songs is too important, of course, if you have special features, you may find another way to conquer the referees, and there are not no examples in history of special players who made a blockbuster and won medals.But the premise is that the level of arrangement must be high enough, and the understanding of world dance culture is deep enough, even if the adaptation of folk dance music can be done calmly, it is guaranteed that it will not deviate from the mainstream culture.

You confuse the referee, and the referee will naturally let you cry, it's that simple.

The audience actually enjoyed it quite a bit.

The main reason is that this kind of special program is rarely seen, and everyone will feel very surprised and unforgettable when one rarely appears.

But the low score is a fact, and the audience gave them warm applause when they saw off the two Swiss players.

The third group played is the American combination.

Alice and Andre won bronze medals at the World Championships last year, which means they are ranked third in the world.

At the same time, they are also the all-meter champions of American players for four consecutive years.

At this time, Xia Kaikai and Zhou Yueshan were already standing at the entrance and exit. They will play in the next game, and now is the final preparation time.

When the music started, Xia Kaikai turned to look at the program of the couple on the ice.

Alice and Andre are paired veterans, and their results have been very good. They won No.2 in the Olympic Games the year before last, and No.1 in the World Championships the year before last.

But about the increase in age year by year, the rankings of the two have been slowly declining, or "declining" is not accurate enough. Their biggest problem is that they have not made great progress, but the latecomers are constantly improving. surpass them.

Alice is 26 years old this year, and Andre is 28 years old. They are about to pass through the golden peak period of ice dancers, but what is certain is that they will definitely persist until the next Olympic Games before retiring.

Veterans have the advantage of veterans, that is, they are stable enough on the field, and they can avoid many mistakes in advance, especially in terms of rhythm, basically there will be no major mistakes.But sticking to a sport and keeping it fresh is very difficult. This is the huge problem that veterans need to face. Although they can guarantee their own strength, the speed of improvement has almost stagnated.

thus.

The free skating they skated this year is very interesting, and the name is "To Alice". They probably want to use the title and song to stimulate the contestants themselves, as well as the judges and the audience, and awaken their love for the combination of Alice. selected songs.

The beautiful and moving piano music reverberated over the arena. The two American veterans performed very calmly, completing their program in one go from beginning to end.

Elegant and smooth, the elements of ballet and waltz are integrated together. Although it is simple, it is done in one go. Instead, people can calm down and enjoy it. The program is really good.

Their short program is 83.28 points, ranking second.

The free skating judges gave them 117.81 points.

The final 201.09 points successfully surpassed the British Arabella combination and appeared at the top of the standings.

And the score of more than 200 points also made the audience very excited. The audience from the United States even stood up and applauded excitedly.

As a Chinese American, Xia Kaikai still has a good impression of the United States. He paid attention to the whole process until the score came out. Then he withdrew his mind and focused on his own game.

There was applause from the audience.

It is polite applause, and there is also applause that I look forward to after watching their short program.

Of course, there is also warm applause from Huaguo ice fans.

"Xia Kaikai, Zhou Yueshan, come on!"

"Hua Guo team, come on!"

A loud voice shouted from Huaguo ice fans.

Hearing a familiar language in a foreign country is indeed very cordial.

Xia Kaikai waved his hand in that direction, and Zhou Yueshan hurriedly followed suit after seeing it.

Then the two skated out. Before the game, they had a chance to adapt to the venue for one minute.

Xia Kaikai slid to the place where the ice surface was damaged before, and the skates slid over. The foot feel is still a little different, but it has little effect on skating. If it is other events that require jumping and landing, I am afraid that I should avoid this place. .

Time is running out.

Xia Kaikai slid back and met Zhou Yueshan in the middle.

The two adjusted their postures, hugged each other, then pressed their foreheads together, and slowly closed their eyes, as if they were in a deep sleep, and the whole person fell into a state of stillness.

waiting.

The arrival of music.

The sound of the piano reverberated over the arena, and as soon as it appeared, it was a series of magical and magnificent notes. The sound range hovering in the high-pitched area had the effect of directly bombarding the brain.

Arrogant!rude!Strong!

To draw the audience's attention, you must concentrate!

"Cicada" is the name of the cover of the American singer.

After it spread into China, it quickly became an Internet celebrity song, and was widely used in photo albums, spaces, and some hot and sexy videos.

But the original song of this song is a Swedish electronic music, and the translated name is "Bright Youth".

The original song is only 4 minutes, and the whole song is divided into three stages.

In the first stage, the sound register is high-pitched and magnificent, but the melody is mysterious and has a slightly magical sense of depression.The most intuitive feeling when listening to the original song is that someone is lurking secretly in the dark, like a devil walking in the dark. It is not ugly, even beautiful, but the scarlet long nails are a sharp weapon for harvesting life. Behind the scenes often pay the price of life.

In the second stage, the music is gentle and the melody is lingering, but occasionally a bit of sharp and piercing treble is added, as if there is a hidden crisis in the plainness.The content of the song is that there is a simple woman who fell in love with the devil. She was tempted by the devil and showed the most beautiful and moving self. The devil fell in love with her until she finally fulfilled her wish, sacrificed her life, and died in the arms of the devil with closed eyes.

The third stage is the most touching part. The devil also fell in love with his prey deeply. He harvested the soul of the prey, returned to hell, and threw the woman's soul into the fire of hell. The woman was reborn as a devil, and with her beloved The devil in hell is lingering in the most luxurious way in the flames of hell.

But after "Bright Youth" was sung by Internet celebrities and singers, it left a more original melody and gave up the part that was too magical. It is hard to say whether this adaptation is right or wrong. It can only be said that the adaptation is more in line with ordinary people. The taste has become much easier to understand, and it is even more catchy. Some sexy gasps in the chorus were added later, but they have become the biggest highlight of the adaptation.

In the words of a netizen, listening to the panting sound, my face was flushed, my hands and feet were weak, and it was more refreshing than fighting with my girlfriend for [-] rounds.

Although these words are a bit exaggerated, the whole adaptation is indeed very innovative, including the display of the content, which has become more accessible and down-to-earth.

"Got it".

Got it.

The life span is about six years, and the larvae will hibernate underground for five years until the last year. The instinct of reproduction and mating allows them to crawl out of the deep underground and quickly evolve into adults. In midsummer, the eardrums vibrate, Make that annoying and loud sound of "Zhi-Zhi-", and sing the song of courtship with all your strength until the mission of inheritance is completed.

The vast majority of cicadas will die after reproduction.

Just like the end of life.

Both desperate and bright.

What color is the cicada that only exists in midsummer?

Is it a verdant green, or a washed blue?

Is it rich red or harvest yellow?

Or is it the most plain earth color, and the light brown ash all over the body?

Or is it the white that walks on the beach, the colorful that is blown by the wind?

However, when it came to Xia Kaikai and the others, it became extremely simple and clean.

Zhou Yueshan is wearing a pink gradient white skirt, the style is simple and elegant, it looks like a usual practice skirt, without any shiny decorations, it is very ordinary at a cold glance, only the flying white skirt when it is slid up On the side, you can see the designer's care in choosing the fabric. The light and thin fabric can really fly with a little wind, and with a little bit of fishtail skirt design, the shape of the skirt is very flying. Wonderful.

Xia Kaikai's clothes are different. A set of purple clothes looks neat from the front, and even the half-height neckline design makes him very abstinent. The only design that is not much is the silver thread that shows off from both sides of the neckline, artificially causing Xia Kaikai's The shoulders are wider and the waist is thinner.

But when he turned around, those who saw him took a deep breath.

Just because this dress is so sexy!

It fully fits the luxurious feeling of the "devil" in the song, or the "male cicada" courtship.

Because his back is a see-through outfit!

The purple see-through fabric tightly wrapped Xia Kaikai's entire back, extending all the way to the waist, completely showing Xia Kaikai's most beautiful back line in front of everyone.

Looming, you can see the trajectory of his shoulder blades when they move, and you can even see his sudden ups and downs, and then form a curved waistline, including the shadow part of the sunken spine under the fabric, which is a bit too sexy .

Dark and sexy.

Bright and simple.

The seemingly conflicting elements reached a kind of ultimate harmony when the two people calmed down.

If their clothes and embracing gestures are like Tai Chi pictures, black and white, I am afraid that foreign audiences will not understand.But if we say that this color contrast and the huge and obvious conflict in style form a unique balance of visual conflict, then it can explain why the gesture of the two embracing each other is so beautiful.

The man with his back exposed represents desire and evil, and he has a feeling of lust, but when he arches his back and caresses the girl in his arms with a gentle gesture, there is an intoxicating tenderness, which is all about her. It is tender and tender.

The girl in her arms is wearing the simplest gauze dress. The light pink color matches her complexion very well. Even her hair is simply combed behind her. She looks extraordinarily innocent and happy when she is snoring with her eyes closed. good beauty.

From the very beginning, it was full of artistic conception.

The sound from the scene disappeared at some point, and everyone was waiting with bated breath.

Quiet, you can hear a needle drop.

Wait quietly.

There seemed to be invisible fingers in the void, and they lightly pressed on the black piano keys. After a slight pause, the fingers exerted force and hit the first note, followed by a series of smooth, familiar melodies.

"Got it"?

Do not!no!

The treatment of this music is actually more inclined to the original song "Bright Youth"!

No wonder this pair of contestants wore such contrasting outfits. In the MTV of the original song, it was the meeting and love between the devil and the girl. Audiences who knew the song were immediately substituted into the scene.

And it doesn't matter if you haven't heard it before, because the magical meaning of the music itself is too strong, so the gorgeous feeling will give people a strong auditory impact, and even people who have heard it for the first time will be shocked and fall into this kind of music. There is no time for him to care about the magical melody.

In fact, for ice dancers, it is not rational to choose such a piece.

After all, if the music is too aggressive, it will feel overwhelming, which is not conducive to the performance of the players on the field.

But now obviously no one would think so much.

The audience was first attracted by the music, and then they saw the pair of players on the ice suddenly separated, each doing their own spinning movements on the ice.

The spin of the female contestant belongs to the ballet spin, the toes are turned under the feet, elegant and stretched, the ice skates are staggered, the skirt is twisted with beautiful lines, and the white tails are especially beautiful when they are unfolded, like flowers blooming in spring, delicate and charming. Drops, scorching its flowers.

The male contestant did a neat twist on the ice, making three consecutive spins. His body turned, his outriggers were straight, and his floating legs were bent high. After three laps, he touched the ice with his feet, which coincided with the rhythm. Together, connected to a turn three.

Turn three, the body slides in one direction at the first moment, and turns in another direction at the next second.At that moment, the back see-through costume could even clearly see the twisting lines of his spine, and the curves of his waist were extremely graceful in an instant, giving people a sense of beauty that ignores gender.

His body was tilted, his arms spread out, like angel wings, descending from the sky.

Then, surrounded by female companions.

Perfect opening.

The different dance rotations of male and female contestants form a visual conflict of one fast and one slow, one cold and one hot, and even one soft and one soft.

In a trance, in the gorgeous piano sound, it seems to hear the footsteps of the devil, slowly approaching.

"Hey girl, do you think I look good?"

The devil squatted on the window in the bloody dusk, the red sun slowly slipping down from his shoulders, at the moment when light and darkness intersected, the black eyes under the black hair shone with brilliance.

He looked at the girl practicing dancing in the room, showing a charming smile, and the fully exposed back behind him grew wings covering the sky from the position of the shoulder blades, slowly instigating the girl's heart, time and space, this world everything of everything.

The bewitched girl reached out to him, and readily agreed to the devil's invitation.

The author has something to say:

It is also very interesting to write other contestants' competition programs every time, just like making up short stories one by one.

Speaking of the names of the fan club yesterday, there were four that impressed me the most.

The first is cocoa powder, and the dolls are cocoa beans.

But I think there is only Kaikai without Shanshan, they are a combination after all.

The second is a peacock, and the doll can be a peacock or a fan.

The specific reason is "Kai Shan" → "cardigan" → "opening the fan" → "opening the peacock".

The third one has no fan group name, only dolls, arctic fox and arctic rabbit.

Arctic Fox: More like Kaikai, with charming eyes.

Arctic Rabbit: It’s more like Zhou Yueshan. She hides jiojio, which is very cute and cute. When she stands up, she has long legs...

Fourth, why is it fourth, why is it the finale?

Pretty much one of my favorites.

Kai Kai→K→King→“王”

Zhou Yueshan→Shan→shan→“上”

The group is called "The King", and the fans call themselves "Weichen", and they can even open a harem.

No dolls.
