When the song "Dawn" came to an end, there was thunderous applause, and flowers and gifts rained down like raindrops.
Evlova raised her arms and slid around the field, picked up a red rose, and shouted with excitement.
"Why is everyone so excited?"
In the audience, a young girl was holding a StellaLou bunny. She looked around blankly and asked her boyfriend, "Did this Russian player do something amazing?"
His boyfriend scratched his head, still confused.
These two people turned out to be the young couple who were almost cheated by the boss at the open-air ice rink last time.
Zheng Yao and Xu Yelei are both college students at Jianglin University. After listening to Lu Tingsong's advice, they later signed up for one-on-one courses at the Speed Star Club.
When they saw the photos of Lu You and Xie Yunjun on the wall of honor, they realized that the people they met that day were not just professional players, but players from the national team!
That night, Zheng Yao and her boyfriend watched all the game videos of the Lu and Xie group, and immediately became fans of this pair of childhood sweethearts.
Zheng Yao: "Everyone is so excited, shouldn't we be excited too? Otherwise we will seem out of place."
She is still a novice in figure skating and only knows one A jump. There was no commentary on the scene, so she had no idea what an exciting jump Ivlova completed.
Although she didn't quite understand how technically difficult Ivlova and Mosokov's performances were, from Zheng Yao's perspective as a student in the music department, she always felt that the Russian brother and sister lacked expressiveness.
This is reflected in the strong sense of disconnection between their performance and the music.
When skating, Evelova seemed to be in a hurry to complete the next choreography, which resulted in the whole program not being linked together by music, but rather by technical moves one by one.
When Zheng Yao told her boyfriend about her thoughts, a female voice with a slight accent rang out next to her: "I think so too."
Zheng Yao turned around and found that the lady with chestnut curly hair and delicate makeup was holding a camera. She might have bought two tickets. On the empty seat next to her was a half-human-high StellaLou doll and a blue Stitch.
Compared with hers, my doll is simply a super mini version.
"My name is Yamamoto Nanako, I'm from Japan," Yamamoto Nanako said in a friendly manner, "I'm a fan of Tori-chan and Kimi-san... I think the Chinese LX group has stronger expressiveness than YM."
Nanako Yamamoto said: "Tori-chan is a very expressive child. She and Kimi-san seem to be natural partners. They work together very well and their song selection is also suitable for their age."
Zheng Yao couldn't agree more: "That's right, I also think that the youth group doesn't need to pursue the profound meaning behind the music, otherwise the aura will be covered up."
For teenagers, simple and energetic songs are more suitable!
While the few of them were talking, the final scores of Ivlova and Mosokov were announced.
RUS (Russia)
Evelova/Mossocov
T (Technical Factors): 61.84
P (Program content score): 60.89
D(Deduction): 0.00
FS (Free Skating Total Score): 122.73
Total: 191.98
So far in the competition, this is the only pair with a total score of more than 190 points.
It should be said that this is a score close to that of the adult group. Generally, the free skating scores of the top players in the youth group fluctuate between 110 and 120. 120 points is almost a score barrier that the youth group players cannot cross.
But Ivlova and Mosokov relied on their strong skills to improve their scores.
While Russian ice hockey fans were jubilant, Chinese ice hockey fans had worried expressions on their faces.
As we all know, according to the JGPF arrangement by Lu You, Xie Yunjun and others, even if the two children skate clean in the free skate, it is unlikely that they will surpass Russia.
Lu You and Xie Yunjun took off their long coats and after a pre-match discussion with their coach, the barrier at the entrance opened and the two stepped over the barrier to enter the ice rink.
Zheng Yao didn't care whether the score could surpass Russia's, because she didn't know how to count at all. She came here just to watch the Chinese team. The girl took out two five-star red flags from her pocket, one in each hand. Although she remained quiet, she waved the flags wildly.
Lu You raised his legs, pounded his thigh muscles, and rubbed his arms to wake up his muscles.
"On the ice..."
When the announcement sounded, the petite girl took the initiative to put her hand in the palm of the black-haired boy. The two of them walked around half the court to salute. When they returned to the center of the ice rink, Lu You reached out to hug Xie Yunjun's neck and motioned him to lower his head.
Xie Yunjun bent down and gently held Lu You's face. Their foreheads were pressed together and they whispered something in an extremely intimate posture.
Finally, they both nodded as if they had made up their minds.
Lu You crossed her fingers, placed her hands on her chest in a praying gesture, and gently closed her eyes. Xie Yunjun hugged her from behind. Yamamoto Nanako recognized her immediately. The opening posture of "Frozen Symphony" changed again.
The Japanese lady was frantically pressing the shutter button: "This opening action and the one just now, I must use them as the cover when I upload the video!"
Under the high-definition camera, the piano notes slowly began to jump. Lu You's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and he opened his eyes as if waking up from a dream, revealing a confused expression.
When the sleeping snowflake was awakened by the wind, she was naive and unaware that a blizzard that could tear everything apart was quietly approaching.
Xie Yunjun held her waist, Lu You jumped lightly, stepped on his thigh, leaned her upper body back, stretched her arms in a graceful posture, and was carried around on the ice.
The pure music piece "Frozen Symphony" is a work by a well-known domestic musician. The first quarter of the whole piece is light and soft, and the turning points are also transitioned very naturally, leaving plenty of room for imagination.
“Ka——”
Almost at the turning point of the music, Lu You spun quickly in the air, and 3LoTh landed steadily on the ice, completing the first throw jump in the show.
During this period, their triple lutz jump has become completely stable, and their success rate can usually reach around 60 to 70 percent.
This year's World Junior Championships can be regarded as the one with the largest number of participating pairs skating teams in recent years. Compared with the two or three birdies in the previous session, this year there are nearly thirty pairs of pairs skaters participating in the competition, which is almost the same number as the men's and women's singles. Among them, the top twenty-four pairs ranked in the short program entered the free skating.
Because of this, the World Youth judges are more strict about the upgrade of the throw jump in the youth group.
Lu You and Xie Yunjun's triple twist only received a grade of three, while their lift and combined rotation received a grade of four. However, among the top 23 pairs of players, including Ivlova and others, none of their twists received a grade of four.
Jiang Yang commented: "The referees at the World Youth Championships are stricter, but fortunately they are fair and impartial, and there are no crooked butts."
3S+2T+2T (combined jump)
BV (Basic Score): 6.9
GOE (execution score): +0.31
Current (player's real-time technical score): 40.97
1st (Currently ranked first player's total technical score): 61.84
"The Chinese players have already received a technical score of 40.97. They are now choreographing their step sequence... The referee gave them a GOE bonus of 1.21, so Lu You and Xie Yunjun's technical score has increased to 45.18."
"According to the plan, they still have one 3S single jump and one 3S throw jump to complete. If they complete them successfully, they will get a total of 8.7 basic points."
"61.84-45.18-8.7 equals... 7.96 points," Lu Tingsong sighed helplessly, "Taking into account the extra points from yesterday's short program, even with clean jumps, I need to get a GOE close to five points to surpass YM."
Jiang Yang also shook his head: "No matter how powerful the referee composition is, the GOE of the two jumps combined will hardly exceed five points."
In pair skating, the GOE of a single jump has always been only a few tenths of a point. As for the throw jump, no matter how high the quality is, you cannot expect the judges to give it more than four points for execution.
If four points of enforcement score are really given, ISU will definitely intervene in the investigation. None of the referees present today can escape. Not to mention a warning letter, they may even be disqualified from enforcement.
"Ugh, You and Jun's program is so weird, putting the throw jump and the single jump together at the end," Cavella complained. "Putting the double jump at the end doesn't add any points. They really rely on their good physical strength to do something stupid."
Anatoly agreed: "It's really strange... This is the first time I've seen such an arrangement."
Caveira: "But You seemed to have told me that if it is the same type of throw jump and single jump, her single jump will have a higher success rate if it is done after the throw jump."
"Maybe because of this," Anatoly said, "they only have one 3S and 3STh left now."
"Ah, You and Jun are going to do the jump jump!"
Cavira held onto the baffle. On the ice, Lu You turned her back to Xie Yunjun and gently placed her hand on the back of Xie Yunjun's hand. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
"Something's wrong, this is not right," Lu Tingsong muttered, "This is not a triple lutz."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu You leaned forward, and the teeth of his right leg brought out a puff of ice mist. At the same time, Xie Yunjun's hand holding the girl's waist instantly exerted force and threw her to the left front -
Lu You placed her hands on her abdomen and lower spine, one in front of the other, crossed her legs slightly, and while spinning rapidly, she began to recall the key points of this throw jump.
One circle, two circles, three circles.
Okay, put your left leg back, spread your arms, bend your knees, and prepare to land on the ice with your right leg.
Lu You muttered to herself in her heart, but when the ice blade hit the ice heavily, she still shook all over.
Lu You rolled over and finally managed to steady himself.
"Philips triple throw! Lu You and Xie Yunjun temporarily increased the difficulty!" The commentator was as excited as a machine gun, "This is a 3FTh! Although there are minor flaws in the landing, I can't believe that the youngest Chinese pair actually completed the most difficult throw in this competition!"
"Although this 3FTh score is not enough for them to turn the tide, it is incredible that they can do a full 3FTh at this age!"
Are the points not enough to make a comeback?
Isn't there still one single jump left?
Xie Yunjun slid quickly to Lu You's side, and the two looked at each other, as if confirming something with each other.
They turned three times lightly, and raised their right legs at the same time, and the two blades hit the ice in unison.
Philips triple jump.
——Full week.
As the ice flowers flew, the narrator took a deep breath and shouted excitedly: "Miracle... This is a miracle!!"
