Chapter 75 Falling and Getting Up
He Hui's free skate was the violin piece "Song of the Wanderer", a well-known piece in figure skating competitions, written by Hungarian composer Sarasate, with difficult techniques and abundant emotions.
Therefore, when designing the costume, Lu Xing chose the collision effect of black and red to complete an exotic dance dress. In addition, Lu Xing also specially designed a small red flower on the hair band, which bloomed behind the head.
After the powerful ensemble, there is a long and sad introduction by the violin.
If it was performed a few years later, the audience would probably be distracted. Because when the video platform began to develop rapidly, this prelude became the best soundtrack for sad and funny videos.
Fortunately, today's audiences can still fully immerse themselves in the emotions expressed in the music.
After the introduction, He Hui will face three consecutive quadruple jumps in the first half, which are quite difficult.
In the brief silence, He Hui completed the steps before taking off. The sound of the violin sounded again, and He Hui touched the ice with the outer blade, and the whole person flew into the air.
The advantage of maintaining strength training is that even when your body is a little heavy, you can still throw yourself to a good height.
He Hui put his arms as close to his body as possible, tightened his whole body and focused completely on the rotation.
The four turns of the hook shot were completed smoothly, but before He Hui could breathe a sigh of relief, an accident happened when he landed on the ice.
Not sure if it was because she landed on some ice or because her ability to control her falling on the ice had deteriorated, but He Hui felt the ice skates under her feet tilted and she was about to lose her balance.
She lowered her center of gravity and spread her arms to regain her lost balance.
With the effort of squatting, He Hui stood up in a very awkward posture.
The original plan was to follow up this jump with a 3T, but due to the bad landing of the previous jump, He Hui was unwilling to give up directly, and still followed up with a 2T crookedly.
How stubborn was He Hui? She knew that she had already made a very difficult move, but in order to make up for the loss of GoE caused by falling on the ice, she raised her hand and made a 2T of Tano.
Lin Xiaoman was horrified by what she saw and subconsciously reached into her pocket to look for the non-existent quick-acting heart pills.
He Hui's idea was simple. After all, the state of the next two quadruple jumps was still unknown, so it was better to try hard in the first jump and make a huge jump first, and save as many as possible.
Following the repetitive melody of the violin, He Hui jumped with all his strength again.
This time she has to complete the first four weeks, which is also the 4T that currently occupies the most stable throne among the three difficulty jumps.
This time, He Hui was particularly careful to control the angle of the skates when landing on the ice and slid out smoothly.
So she immediately and skillfully continued the jumps according to the plan.
Originally this should have been a 2T, but because He Hui messed up the previous jump and the 3T became a 2T, she immediately swapped the second jumps of the two consecutive jumps.
He Hui completed a clean triple jump, 4T+3T was done!
After overcoming two of the three difficulties, He Hui already felt a little tired.
It was very strange. I had slid here before and nothing happened, but this time my body was sending me signals.
The development level is so annoying!
He Hui didn't dare to stop. She jumped high again, holding on to the belief that as long as she didn't give her body a chance to feel tired, she wouldn't feel tired.
but......
Oops, the axis is a little crooked.
He Hui secretly thought that something was wrong, but his tensed body was still spinning continuously.
No, even if the axis is crooked, it must be turned fully four turns!
Amid the melodious sound of the violin, He Hui fell to the ground with a bang.
You know what, surprisingly, it's quite fun.
But her efforts paid off. Although her fall looked a bit embarrassing, she was able to stay on the ground for a long time.
Lin Xiaoman held her forehead with her hand, admiring her apprentice's heroic spirit.
The music entered the second part, the slow movement, and He Hui completed a jump-swallow spin, bringing the first half of the free skating to an end.
Amid the gentle melody of the violin, He Hui bent down and did a bow step on the court, launching a challenge to 3A with such an extremely difficult entry.
The planning of this difficult step was a small part of He Hui's ambitious plan for this season, but after the unexpected development barrier came, it turned into a time bomb.
Lin Xiaoman once wanted to dismantle the bomb in exchange for a higher degree of completion, but He Hui insisted on completing the choreography according to the original plan under such pressure.
The take-off height of this 3A seemed to be affected a little, but in terms of distance, it still performed as well as always.
He Hui had a bad feeling while in the air, but in order to complete the full number of turns, she didn't care if she would fall, and she tried her best to complete the three and a half turns.
Snap——
He Hui had another close contact with the ice surface.
Practice makes perfect. He Hui got up even faster this time, taking two steps at a time as if nothing had happened to him, catching up with the music choreography.
Here, the violin begins to show gorgeous overtones and left-hand plucking, and He Hui's sandwich beat 3A+1Lo+3S enters at this moment.
She quickly adjusted her state, learned from the lesson of falling in the previous 3A jump, and flew up again.
After a rare steady landing on the ice and a 1Lo in the middle, He Hui quickly twisted himself up with the blade.
I don’t know if it’s because of the rapid changes in his body that He Hui’s control over it has dropped significantly. He Hui clearly feels that his axis… is crooked again!!
As if falling into an extremely cold abyss, He Hui calmly faced the fate of falling onto the ice again.
The music happens to be the part where sadness slowly flows, making the process of He Hui falling and getting up seem more powerful.
The emotion expressed in the music of "Song of the Wanderer" is that of having experienced the pain and darkness of the world, but still being tenacious, which forms a wonderful echo with He Hui who falls, gets up, falls again, and gets up again at this moment.
Three times the limit! No more falling!
He Hui secretly encouraged himself in his heart.
The piece entered a very emotional passage, with sad emotions flowing from the strings and into the flawless white ice surface. He Hui pulled Berman to the top as the scale rose.
The music changes, contrasting with the slow tempo of the first two parts, and becomes a rhythmic and cheerful melody, like a perfect transformation after going through darkness and pain.
The 3Lz jump from the outside edge and the 3F jump from the inside edge were performed one after another without a break.
He Hui's mastery of the triple jump is still quite high, with the help of Tano and stable performance without any accidents.
In the enthusiastic and cheerful fast rhythm full of gypsy style, He Hui performed two steps of free skating. She kept spinning on the field, switching between inside and outside edges, drawing different arcs with her feet, and her hand movements showed her joy.
Even the series of foot-changing spins before the end of the song makes people's hearts beat faster.
The music stopped at its climax, He Hui lifted up her skirt and bowed confidently.
So tired...
He Hui felt that this free skating was really tiring. She kept holding her knees and breathing heavily.
In fact, by the second half of the slide, she had already felt her physical strength rapidly declining, and felt lactic acid accumulating little by little in her calves, thighs, waist, abdomen and back.
She relied on her willpower to complete the final dance, and her face turned red as she spun.
If you fall, get up; if you can’t slide down, keep going.
He Hui fell three times in the first official competition of the new season, but each time he got up faster than the previous time.
"Are you not hurt?" The first thing Lin Xiaoman said when she saw He Hui was worry.
You know, falling down is a technical job. If you are unlucky, you will need to recuperate for three months at best, or even the whole season at worst.
He Hui gave Lin Xiaoman a reassuring look and shook his head: "I'm fine."
Lin Xiaoman breathed a sigh of relief, but saw He Hui standing there motionless after leaving the ice rink.
"What's wrong? Where do you feel uncomfortable now?" She felt her heart being lifted up again.
He Hui shook his head blankly again and said embarrassedly: "It's just... a little weak..."
Lin Xiaoman: “…”
So, Lin Xiaoman supported her throughout the whole process.
Well, it’s not the first time I’ve done this.
When He Hui was dividing the scores, he inexplicably felt guilty. After all, his attitude of never lowering the difficulty was quite risky. Lin Xiaoman's worry was not groundless.
She lowered her head, raised her eyes and glanced at Lin Xiaoman secretly, but her gaze met Lin Xiaoman's.
Lin Xiaoman raised the corner of her mouth and asked her with interest: "Why? Do you regret it?"
"No." The guilty feeling that He Hui had finally shown disappeared from his face, and he looked righteous and confident.
"Then why are you so guilty?"
"I'm afraid you'll worry too much about me." He Hui pouted.
A smile appeared on Lin Xiaoman's lips.
*
Although He Hui fell three times in the free skating, the good news is that she successfully won the gold medal in this competition by relying on her difficulty recognition of the foot circle and a technical score that was a level higher than other players.
He Hui finally let go of her worries about the uncertain outcome of the competition, and smiled as she stood on the championship podium.
Although the winning posture is a bit ugly, it is a good thing to be able to win.
Lin Xiaoman was also at a loss for words about this ending: "Congratulations!"
He Hui chuckled.
The result this time is pretty good!
But what He Hui never expected was that the "Song of the Wanderer" bgm, which had inexplicably become popular in her previous life because of a tragic yet funny video, became a hit on the Internet again.
And the protagonist who started this new wave of popularity is actually me? !
I don’t know which “black fan” put He Hui’s three falls in the Wudi Cup to the music of “Song of the Wanderer”, accompanied by desolate special effects, and shared it on the social platform.
The video quickly caused a new wave on the Internet.
“Hahahahahaha, I think you must be a hater of Nv’s Goose! This is the first time in Nv’s career that she fell like this in a match, and you guys just replayed it over and over again! I hate you so much!!”
"When the color is darker, it turns black~ Don't you think He Hui is cute even when she falls?!"
"Sure enough, as long as the mother fan filter is deep enough, any action of the girl will be invincible and cute!"
He Hui looked at the link someone sent her, glanced at the millions of views and comments from real people, and felt that her idol image had fallen to the ground.
Lin Xiaoman deliberately ran in front of her and said calmly: "Although you don't run social media, you are very popular."
He Hui: “…”
