Chapter 70 70 Olympic Champions
"He Hui, represent China!" The host's call interrupted the conversation between master and apprentice.
There was applause in the arena, but it was a clear contrast from before.
He Hui didn't care and put on his most confident smile, smiling at the red. His family members were also sitting there today, and despite the dazzling lights on the field, He Hui still recognized their figures.
The clear and standard name of He Hui immediately rang out on the field.
Sometimes the power a person can contribute is very limited, but it is quite powerful.
At least, He Hui felt a huge hand coming from thousands of mountains and rivers at the edge of the cliff, trying to bring her back to the solid ground.
"Let's cheer for He Hui together."
After Bai Ying finished speaking, the music of "Eternal Vow" resounded throughout the ice rink.
This is a performance style that is completely different from the lively short program. He Hui's graceful gliding brings with it the fresh fragrance of the bamboo forest, the smudged patterns of ink, and brings a breeze that travels back a thousand years.
"4Lz+3T opening." Bai Ying's commentary made everyone's heart rise high, "The first jump was very high and far... landed on the ice... jumped again..."
"It worked!! The huge jump of 17.7 points in BV value was achieved!"
The most difficult combination of jumps in the history of figure skating was completed by He Hui in just a few seconds, with incredible ease.
The referee was busy for a while and finally gave the same goe score of +1.6.
"It's so beautiful. Forgive my poor language, I can't say a second sentence now. I can only say it's so beautiful."
"It's so graceful, you can't tell it's such a difficult jump! Woohoo, bang your head against the wall for my girl."
"Don't get too excited, this is just an appetizer."
As if in response to netizens, He Hui showed off a more relaxed 4T on the court.
There was no room for ice fans to give fancy compliments, as He Hui's 4T+2T was immediately displayed.
"All three quadruple jumps were completed as planned, and He Hui completed all the jumps in the first half of her free skate."
The graceful and beautiful bow and turn is the finale of the first half of the song.
With his right leg pulled over his head, He Hui's waist was bent into a reverse arched position, which was extremely contrary to the normal human body mechanics.
Compared with the enthusiasm and devotion of other ice fans, He Jianmu and Lu Yanfeng frowned at the same time, and then clenched each other's hands.
Bierman is beautiful, but also painful. Behind beautiful things lies dark dirt. Many athletes suffer from back injuries due to years of high-intensity training. In severe cases, even walking becomes a torment.
Although He Hui is extremely talented and is on her way to a gold medal, He Hui's parents are still worried. They are concerned about their daughter's health and her normal life after her career.
Amidst his worries, He Hui on the field had already started the second half calmly.
Swoosh——
The ice blade breaks the silence, and the deep use of the blade makes people feel power and determination.
Bai Ying: "It is a very rare and extremely difficult 3A+1Lo+3S sandwich jump, which He Hui completed perfectly."
She even deftly added tano to the last jump, showing the richness of her abilities.
He Hui soon faced the same difficulty as Tours, that is, while her physical fitness was severely tested in the second half, she needed to complete another 3A.
He Hui had a faint smile on his face and jumped up without hesitation.
The sliding of the ice is so beautiful that it looks like the lines carefully drawn by an art student.
"He Hui has two single jumps left in her free skate."
Bai Ying really wanted to announce the show as clean in advance, but she had to wait, waiting for the final sprint and the sound of the piano to land.
"3Lz, jump with a big outer blade, land on the ice smoothly."
"3F also uses the edge clearly. There is almost no gap between the two jumps."
It worked, all the jumps were completed as planned, without any deviation.
For example, the tight structure inside the safe is complex and interconnected, and it requires the most patient and top thieves to crack it perfectly.
“Aaaah, I declare that we have come to my favorite part—the steps!!”
"I understand, I understand. He Hui's steps really make people feel happy. There is no lag at all, and it feels like silky and smooth."
"A genius girl who breaks through obstacles and moves forward courageously!"
He Hui withstood all the pressure at the Russian athlete's home court, completed the final steps and spins, and created a perfect ending to the piece of music.
When the music stopped, He Hui's four-minute and twenty-second life as the ice heroine came to an end.
He Hui looked up at the exposed steel bars above the venue and felt that everything around him was very quiet.
She seemed to be wrapped in a thin film that isolated her from air and sound, floating in the vacuum of the universe, losing gravity and drifting around.
"He Hui! Good job!" "He Hui is the champion!" "Ahhh! He Hui you are awesome!"
The sound pierced a small hole in the membrane, flooding in all the emotional catharsis.
Squeak——
The tinnitus came in stark contrast.
"With unprecedented difficulty, flawless performance, and a deeply moving performance, He Hui's free skating has a magical power that makes people deeply immersed in it." Bai Ying cried, and the emotions that had been suppressed on the calm surface of the sea continued to stir up waves because of the end of He Hui's performance skating.
Lin Xiaoman on the sidelines completely lost her composure, crying and opening her arms towards He Hui, as uncontrollable as she was when she first participated in an international competition.
He Hui rushed into her arms with a smile, stroking Lin Xiaoman's back again and again.
Lin Xiaoman didn't even wait for the score to be announced, and performed the second half of the area name in the kiss & cry area.
He Hui no longer feels embarrassed or uneasy about □□'s emotional expressions, but when the object is her coach, she always feels a little subtle.
"Don't you care how much I got?"
"Any number of points is fine." Lin Xiaoman sniffed, took a tissue from the tissue box originally prepared for He Hui, and wiped her nose. "You've cleaned enough."
He Hui looked at the tissue box, took the initiative to draw another one for her coach, and put it in her hand.
"Thank you." Lin Xiaoman was still immersed in her emotions.
The scores came out after a long wait, and He Hui held her breath unconsciously.
——Technical score 101.28, program content score 72.59, free skating total score 173.87 points!
This is a very high score. Even if Anna, who performed perfectly at the end, He Hui had already secured the championship.
But Bai Ying had to suppress her excitement. She had to wait until Anna finished her performance before she dared to say congratulations in front of the national audience.
"The last skater to appear is Anna, who is also from Russia. She will try the quadruple Salkhov in the free skate."
The home team gave her a thunderous applause again, and they pinned all their hopes of a comeback on her. If He Hui hadn't performed three quads, if she hadn't had a huge advantage, perhaps the outcome would have been different.
Anna's quadruple jump attempt still ended in a fall.
Amid the regret and encouragement from the audience, she quickly climbed up from the ice and continued skating to complete the program.
In the end, Anna ranked third, pushing veteran Miranda off the podium.
And at the moment the scores were announced, Bai Ying no longer wanted to suppress the excitement in her heart.
"Congratulations to He Hui!" Bai Ying's voice rose eight octaves, her vigorous emotions gushing out, "Congratulations to He Hui for winning the women's singles championship in the Sochi Winter Olympics figure skating event with a total score of 254.51 points! He Hui has achieved a breakthrough in figure skating!"
Before today, China had never won an Olympic gold medal in figure skating.
The first reaction in the host stadium was a collective gasp, sighing over their own players missing out on the championship.
In sharp contrast to this is the small group of red carnival.
Lin Xiaoman hugged He Hui tightly, as if she wanted to rub her into her body.
"Yes, you won the Olympic championship..." Lin Xiaoman still had a crying voice.
"Well, 4.53 points more than Tours." He Hui's mind was now terrifyingly calm, and he turned into a human calculator and reported the score difference.
Lin Xiaoman was stunned on the spot: "? What nonsense are you talking about when you are so happy?"
This time it was He Hui's turn to be confused.
"Ah? Did I calculate wrong?"
*
Before the award ceremony, He Hui looked at the newly released Olympic version of the scores and raised his chin with Lin Xiaoman.
"I calculated correctly. It was 4.53 points higher."
Lin Xiaoman: “…”
The staff interrupted the confusing conversation and said, "The award ceremony will start soon."
He Hui nodded, took the national flag that Lin Xiaoman had prepared long ago, draped it over himself, and turned around proudly.
Miss He was extremely happy and showed a rare silly smile.
Lin Xiaoman laughed, nodded and praised: "This is a limited edition cape. You can't buy it even if you have money."
"hey-hey."
Grab the championship title on someone else's turf, then step onto the highest podium, stand in the center, and watch the bright national flag rise little by little.
He Hui admitted that she was in a wonderful mood. It was as if fireworks were constantly rising into the sky and bursting in front of her eyes, exploding into colorful patterns in her mind.
The gold medal hanging around my neck feels heavy.
He Hui looked down at the golden medal that he had only seen on TV in his previous life, and giggled again.
*
There were quite a few Chinese reporters at the post-match press conference, occupying about one-third of the seats.
This is China's fifth gold medal in this Sochi Winter Olympics, but it is also the first gold medal in figure skating in the entire history of the Winter Olympics.
He Hui sat in the middle, with Turles and Anna on his left and right.
Almost as soon as he appeared at the door, the camera started flashing non-stop, as if it was going to blind He Hui's eyes.
She subconsciously blocked it with her arm, and her loose hair fell from her ears, and there was another burst of flashes.
Reporters are eager to know everything about He Hui, and any photos and gossip will become the focus of the Internet today.
They had no intention of letting go of any of He Hui's movements and expressions.
After all, she is the player who stood out from the crowd and achieved a breakthrough in Russia!
Even during the question-and-answer session with Tours and Anna, the reporters tried their best to steer the topic towards He Hui in various ways.
For example, "What do you think of He Hui's performance today?" and "Did you consider He Hui a strong opponent before the game?"
Questions like these.
When it came time for the championship question and answer session, the reporters' intentions became even more obvious.
The host looked at the raised hands in the seats and called out names randomly.
"Please ask the reporter on the left wearing a yellow jacket to ask questions."
The reporter who was called stood up, and the whole audience only heard a creaking sound.
He was so excited that he nearly knocked over the stool!
