Chapter 76 Chapter 76
Although He Hui won the championship in the Wudi Cup, the problems exposed after falling three times were also very serious.
——The development barrier had a certain impact on He Hui. Her quadruple jump and edge jump suddenly became precarious.
Therefore, He Hui's biggest goal this season changed from exploring more possibilities for four weeks to adapting to the changes in his body and stabilizing the performances of the two programs.
He Hui fell down and got up again and again on the training ground, leaving his arms and thighs bruised.
The parents felt very sad about this.
He Jianmu's heartache was manifested in the fact that he would ask her how she was doing with concern, and then suddenly say "the family business can always support you".
Every time this happened, He Hui would reasonably regard his father's "encouragement" as the greatest motivation to move forward.
Besides, this method of provoking was very effective for Miss He. There were several times when she wanted to take a day off at night and skip two sets of strength training, but He Jianmu would bring her back with just one word.
It's impossible to go back and inherit the family business! Why not do two sets of strength training! !
Her mother, Lu Yanfeng, would find a doctor to treat He Hui's bruises, but she would never ask her to give up figure skating and inherit the family business.
He Hui couldn't help but say once, "I thought you and my dad were on the same side."
"I did hope that you could inherit the family business because the career of a figure skater is too short." Lu Yanfeng sat beside He Hui's bed, intending to have a long talk with her.
"I know." He Hui nodded and expressed his inner thoughts again sincerely, "But after retiring, I also want to do something related."
Lu Yanfeng touched her hair gently, with infinite trust in his eyes.
"I believe that whatever you want to do, Huihui, can be accomplished."
"Don't you think it's a losing business?"
His mother was a professor of economics, so it was natural for her to not understand the reason. He Hui just stared at Lu Yanfeng, waiting for her answer.
"A business cannot be analyzed solely from an economic perspective. Political, social and technological factors are also worthy of consideration. Although your idea may have fewer economic advantages, it may be supported by policies and recognized for creating social value." Lu Yanfeng was patient and persuasive.
Such a familiar theory...
He Hui remembered, isn't this the PEST analysis of the macro environment that she had learned before? The knowledge she had learned in the past actually entered her mind in a different way!
"Yeah, that's right." He Hui felt that he had been completely trapped in a vicious circle of fighting against the possibility of commercialization.
"Your father is a good person. He is worried that you will be hit by various practical difficulties on your idealistic path. Of course, he is also a bit stubborn. It is difficult for him to change his values in a short time. He is an old-fashioned person." Lu Yanfeng rubbed her head again. "Don't worry. You can't delay your college application."
"Yeah." He Hui nodded heavily.
"Have you been having trouble jumping recently?" Lu Yanfeng also noticed the difficulties He Hui had encountered recently. "Don't worry about this. Let's give ourselves more time, okay?"
"We all believe in you. You can do it. Is there anything you can't do?"
Lu Yanfeng's gentleness is powerful. Compared with the mindless output of simply speaking loudly, her words are convincing.
He Hui even felt that under Lu Yanfeng's patient guidance, her chaotic and slightly impatient heart slowed down.
"There's nothing I can't do." He Hui replied.

He Hui chose Canada and Japan as the two races for this season.
As soon as the news came out, Chinese ice hockey fans protested.
"No, I have such a big Chinese station. Why don't I let He Hui compete at home?"
"This season, Kong Ziqiu, Lu Nanfeng and Cheng Ran are all going to be promoted to a higher group, and there aren't enough spots for the China station. We also need to support friends who have just moved up from the youth group, so please understand. However, I have already bought the plane ticket, hehe."
"Not only He Hui, but also Tan Ling who crawled out from the bottom of the lake was exiled this season. It's so funny."
Tan Ling chose Canada and France as the stations to compete in, and she also had no chance to compete at home.
So when the two reunited in Kelowna, British Columbia, it was quite a magical scene.
"You were also assigned here?"
In the business car, Tan Ling looked at He Hui who was sitting next to her with amusement and greeted him.
He Hui smiled and responded: "It's good to leave opportunities for friends who need them more. And you know my situation."
She doesn't know how this season will turn out, and she might embarrass herself at home.
Um......
Tan Ling nodded and said comfortingly: "I know. But I believe you."
He Hui saw the firm confidence that Tan Ling gave her in her eyes. Her eyes seemed to be shining and conveying infinite energy.
He Hui thought, how dim and lifeless these same eyes would be in that hopeless valley.
But Tan Ling did it and returned to the court.
My technique and performance are not as stable as before, but I have not lost my basic abilities. They are many times better than Tan Ling's situation at that time.
Therefore, she couldn't just give up and admit defeat.
At this year's Canadian station, He Hui met two new Russian female singles players - Valeria Belova and Miha Ilova.
At the same time, Japan's new generation player Mirai Kodaira was promoted from the youth group to the adult group.
In addition to the new faces, He Hui also met her old friend Hardy Irene at the Canadian station. She had just participated in the US station near her home and flew to Canada back to back.
However, Hardy Irene's condition has improved compared to the Olympic season. Although the edge of the hook shot will always be marked with an e, she still won a silver medal in the US station.
In other words, He Hui's opponent in this station is not weak.
When Lin Xiaoman saw the list of this station, she was very impressed: "Their echelon construction is really good."
He Hui thought about the three wild cards in the China station and said, "Our future should be quite promising, right?"
Whether it is the all-round Kong Ziqiu who is also under Lin Xiaoman's command, or Lu Nanfeng who is always joking but rarely fails in competitions, or Cheng Ran who is dark but hardworking, they are all players worth looking forward to among the new generation of China.
Although strictly speaking, He Hui is only two years older than them.
"I hope so." Lin Xiaoman raised her lips, "I hope they can get through the growth spurt well."
He Hui was silent: "......"
She felt as if she had been clicked.

He Hui was the last to perform in the short program, and most of the contestants before her performed fairly well.
The new generation Russian loli Valeria Belova, relying on the operation of putting all three jumps in the second half, successfully scored 67.54 and temporarily ranked first.
Miha Ilova, also from Russia, made a mistake and ranked third with 61.03 points, while Japanese teenager Mirai Kodaira ranked second with 62.74 points.
"I'm so envious. As soon as he entered the adult group, his score reached 7..." After watching the performance, He Hui felt filled with sour emotions.
Lin Xiaoman looked at He Hui, whose face was wrinkled as if he had eaten a lemon, and couldn't help laughing.
"Just because you have a score of 7 now doesn't mean you can easily increase it to 8 or even 9." Lin Xiaoman's consolation was unique. "You are now stable at 8-9 points!"
"That's right." He Hui was quite satisfied that the referee finally opened his eyes. She pouted proudly, "After all, it's not that easy to upgrade."
"Let's go, it's our turn."
Lin Xiaoman and He Hui walked to the sidelines with firm steps.
The score of Hardy Irene, who performed before He Hui, was announced as 64.97 points, which was pretty good, but she still failed to surpass Valeria Belova.
He Hui knew everyone's scores clearly.
It has been more than a month since the Wudi Cup was lost three times.
In the past month, He Hui has successfully written the word "stubborn" repeatedly.
"He Hui, representing China."
He Hui swung his arms and walked against the wind on the ice rink.
This month, He Hui has focused more than 90% of his energy on stable jumping. No matter whether it is 3Lo which is shrouded in dark clouds or 3A which turns from an iron plate into a seesaw, they have been repeated again and again under almost harsh intensity.
At the beginning of the short program, He Hui demonstrated the 3Lz+3Lo that she had practiced countless times on the ice rink.
Especially when taking off for the second jump, Lin Xiaoman followed He Hui on the field, lifted her body high, and then squatted down when she landed after the jump.
All her attention was focused on the small, narrow ice blade, trying to discern the subtle angle of landing on the ice.
Snap, snap, snap——
Applause broke out from the audience, and Lin Xiaoman stood up and joined in the applause.
It worked! He Hui's 3Lo jump was as smooth as ever!
Lin Xiaoman then began to worry about the 3A behind.
Others listen to "Jiu Kuang" and shake their heads in drunkenness, following He Hui's footsteps to feel the beauty of Chinese style. Lin Xiaoman listens to "Jiu Kuang" for fear that she will get drunk and dizzy, and follows He Hui's ice skates to see if there is any possibility of survival or falling.
Fortunately, He Hui’s efforts paid off—3A was completed neatly.
To the rhythmic sound of the guqin, He Hui ended with a beautiful tano 3F.
This condition is so good that it makes people hallucinate about their pre-development period. A smile appears on Lin Xiaoman's lips.
He Hui's goal for the past month has been to regain stability in her jumping. At this point in the short program, she breathed a sigh of relief, but she felt a wave of protest from her body that followed.
So tired...
To the sound of music, He Hui began to complete the final spin.
He Hui, who in the eyes of others was able to perform various technical moves with ease on the ice rink, was now feeling extremely tired.
She was pushed by the rhythm of the music, wanting to keep moving forward and finish the short program as quickly as possible.
So, what Lin Xiaoman didn't expect was that He Hui actually capsized in the gutter...
In the last series of spins, He Hui's spin in one of the postures was a little awkward, so awkward that it might not be recognized by the referee at all. If she missed a posture in the combined spin, the whole series of spins might be directly ruled invalid.
It is not a downgrade, but a direct loss of points for the entire rotation.
Lin Xiaoman's face turned pale and her heart began to beat fast with panic.
When He Hui came down from the court, he also pursed his lips and said nothing.
“I guess it’s impossible to determine.”
She had a vague feeling of foreboding...
