Chapter 96 Five Kinds of Four Weeks
The music begins with the melodious sound of the erhu, which immediately brings people into the distant Yao village.
Li Chumiao looked at the still calm backstage, and the smile on her face deepened. To be honest, she couldn't wait to watch everyone's face-changing performance.
He Hui’s first jump at the beginning is to challenge 4Lo.
Although the score of 4Lo is not as high as 4Lz and 4F, it is recognized as difficult among the players, and the force is in a very awkward state.
He Hui crossed his legs and used the blade to spin himself off the ice.
She was very powerful and her rotation speed was very fast, so the ice chips created by her force flew everywhere during the high-speed rotation.
From the moment He Hui jumped up, the venue became extremely quiet, with only everyone waiting with bated breath.
Snap——
The ice blade fell on the ice surface, drawing a deep arc.
Lin Xiaoman slammed the padded barrier on the sidelines, trying to suppress her excited urge to scream.
The backstage was in chaos. Everyone exclaimed at first, and then looked at each other, seeing deep disbelief in each other's expressions.
Li Chumiao calmly hid behind and observed, smiling quietly at the commotion caused by the comet.
Well, she is worthy of being the stunning Miss He!
He Hui waved her arms gently on the stage, performing classical dance moves with ease.
The second 4S.
He Hui held the core tightly and fought against the gravity.
But his body gradually lost control during the high-speed rotation. He Hui thought something was wrong and subconsciously closed his eyes to prepare for the close contact with the ice.
Snap——
The crisp sound made people shiver.
When he opened his eyes again, He Hui had already fallen on the ice.
She hurriedly got up and sighed inwardly at 4S which had inexplicably become the biggest difficulty.
Lin Xiaoman sighed almost in unison: "Is it really the 4S that is causing such a headache?"
Although the second 4S failed, the unrest behind the scenes continued to spread.
"These two are quadruple jumps that He Hui released in the new season, right? Two at once?"
"Yes, it's terrible..."
"So you really have to do six quads, this is a series of jumps!"
The volume of everyone's discussions gradually increased. It was no longer just whispers, it was a public discussion!
Li Chumiao thought, these are just two quadruple jumps, they don’t even get to the point.
He Hui's free skate continued. The impact of her first two jumps was so great that when everyone saw the perfect 4Lz+3T combination jump, they were no longer surprised.
He Hui's ability is self-evident as he is able to make the contestants perform the most difficult jump sequences without being affected.
Next was 4F. For those who were familiar with He Hui, there were naturally no surprises or surprises.
A clean and obvious inside edge, a rapid rotation after take-off, and a smooth landing, 4F is done.
He Hui plans to complete six quadruple jumps in the free skate. The women's singles competition has a total of seven sets of jumps, which means she only has one set of triple jumps. You know, He Hui has a reserve of 3A jumps, which means this triple jump is even the most difficult triple jump!
The 3A+1Lo+3S at the beginning of the second half landed steadily. He Hui's physical fitness was still full, which turned into a moving free skating performance on the stage.
She arranged four quadruple jumps in the first half, and now only 4T+2T and 4Lz are left in the second half.
"I still can't believe it. The simplest jump in He Hui's program is the 3S in the triple jump?!"
"In fact, if He Hui wants, this configuration can be changed to 3A+1Lo+3F, which will give him more points."
"Help! Her score is already terrible enough, and you want to make it even harder??"
The music entered the passionate allegro section, and He Hui's 4T+2T and 4Lz were perfectly presented in turn, followed by neat and powerful connecting steps and the final joint rotation.
He Hui completed the task in one go, causing the contestants, who were originally in the mood to make fun of the difficulty, to shut up completely and concentrate all their attention on the field.
A Yao dance full of Miao village style ended, and the scene was boiling.
Except for falling on a quad jump, He Hui succeeded in all five quad jumps without exception!
“It’s horrible…”
"I'm actually competing with six four-week sets?"
The contestants looked at each other with complicated expressions as they watched He Hui walk over to them and kiss and cry as if nothing had happened.
Well, it's not completely alright.
On the bench, He Hui supported his head and pouted, obviously still upset about his fallen 4S.
"Sister Lin, is it possible that 4S and I are incompatible?"
Lin Xiaoman was amused by her extremely imaginative idea.
"Well...why don't you go to the temple and pray and make a wish for good luck?"
He Hui's expression was serious, and he actually began to seriously consider the possibility of resorting to metaphysics.
After a while, she shook her head very seriously: "No, I am a socialist atheist."
Lin Xiaoman: “…”
"So, it must be because I haven't practiced enough!" He Hui concluded.
If all the jumps, spins and steps are fine, He Hui's bv in this free skating will reach an unprecedented 111.06.
There are only a handful of players who can break the 100 mark in theoretical bv, and only a handful of male players can achieve that.
But if it was actually achieved in the game, He Hui, who stood up strongly, would be the first person in history.
Technical score is 124.31, program content score is 72.05, and 1 point will be deducted for falling.
In the end, He Hui's free skating score broke the world record again - 195.36 points!
"I'm witnessing history at the Finland Cup?! Oh my god, I really haven't watched this episode!"
"Is He Hui going to join the 200-point club too?! Woohoo, I'm looking forward to it!"
"Please be aware that the men's singles free skating has one more jump than the women's singles free skating, and the coefficient of program content is 2, while the women's is 1.6."
"You were the one who just shouted that He Hui's six circumferences were exaggerated. Why are you silent now?"
"It's so funny, he must have been scared away by the goose slapping him in the face~"
After the game, mixed interview area.
The reporter waved his arms and stopped He Hui.
"Congratulations on completing a set of five types and six quads! How do you feel about completing the challenge?"
"It's a pity that 4S didn't work out." Miss He was upset about it. "I hope I can bring you perfectly clean condoms next time."
The reporter nodded and asked, "We can see that this season several female singles players have performed quadruple or triple axel jumps. What do you think of the huge change in the rise of quadruple jumps?"
This question is quite grand.
"I think this is a good thing." He Hui paused and looked at the camera with a deep and distant look in her eyes. "I hope more female athletes can join this challenge. Quadruple jumps are never a privilege for anyone. If you don't try, how do you know you can't do it?"
Even the reporters in front of him were moved by He Hui's sincere speech and were unable to react for a moment.
After a few seconds of hesitation, the reporter ended the interview: "Thank you, I hope your dream will come true."
The reporter didn't say what the dream was. Maybe it was He Hui's small dream of achieving 4S, or maybe it was her grand dream of having more athletes join the quadruple jump.
*
He Hui became famous in the five quads event at the Finland Cup.
Not only was the Chinese Internet excited, but the external Internet also discussed He Hui's new configuration every day.
Someone made a GIF of He Hui's five quadruple moves, and analyzed them frame by frame, coming to the conclusion that He Hui's use of the blade was textbook-like.
Some people have repeatedly appreciated this groundbreaking free skating performance, and their understanding of Chinese music has also increased.
After learning about the university He Hui attended, some international students came to visit her hoping to meet her by chance, and new photos of her appeared on the Internet every day.
Ophelia Park, who was far away on the west coast of the United States, looked gloomy when she saw He Hui's photo.
It took her coach Anderson several shouts to bring her back to reality.
"Sorry." Ophelia pouted.
"You'd better not work in the cafeteria recently." Anderson said seriously, "The Grand Prix will start soon."
"Okay." Ophelia nodded, "My 4S success rate has been pretty good recently, I want to add it to the complete set."
Anderson shouted "great" excitedly and started scribbling on the score sheet.
"Your first appearance of the season will definitely not be worse than He Hui's!" Anderson's mouth curled up, "I have this confidence."
Ophelia was silent for a moment, then raised the corner of her mouth a little slowly: "Yes."

Ophelia and He Hui are currently the first and second in points of ISU. The sub-station competition was a case of the kings not meeting the kings. They each won the championship in the two sub-station competitions with unquestionable advantages.
The two entered the Grand Prix Final with the same points.
But Ophelia's new free skating configuration once again caused the figure skating world, which had already exploded once, to fall into continuous shock.
In addition to the 4T that was supposed to be released, Ophelia also released the 4S right after that, two consecutive four-week breakthroughs, which was also jaw-dropping.
That is to say, Ophelia currently has four four-week sets and has choreographed an equally amazing five four-week sets.
Although Ophelia has not been able to conquer 3A, the configuration of five quads is already competitive enough, and she even challenges He Hui.
At the US station on her home turf, Ophelia performed an amazing set of five quadruple moves, which earned her a double increase in GEO and P points from the judges.
The breakthrough of the two players has allowed women's singles figure skating to successfully reach the next level.
He Hui thought that this moment was more than an entire Olympic cycle earlier than the previous life.
She suddenly felt that events were speeding along a track that did not exist in history, leaving her in a foggy forest that she could not see clearly.
"After an off-season, the figure skating world has finally become something I don't recognize."
"To be honest, although Ophelia's jump was pretty good, is this score really worth it? The judge felt it was a bit too obvious, didn't he?"
"Can He Hui's fans stop complaining about other people's poor scores? Your sister has already said that quadruple jumps are not exclusive to anyone! Maybe Ophelia will have a 4Lo next season?!"
"I'm stunned. Have Ophelia's fans reached the point where they can quarrel with He Hui's fans?"
In the world of competitive sports, performance is the eternal criterion. As long as you have enough amazing abilities and enough championship titles, the number of your fans will increase proportionally.
Ophelia, the dark horse that emerged in one season, obviously attracted more people willing to place bets.
A one-man show of one person winning the championship is obviously not as exciting as a head-on confrontation. ISU is happy to see the current situation.
The Grand Prix Final held in Marseille, France at the end of December has become more attractive due to the gimmick of He Hui vs. Ophelia.
Before the game started, fans of the two gathered around the ice rink.
They automatically divided into two teams, each chatting and exchanging items.
The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder, causing other people's fans to retreat and tremble in fear.
As the game time approached, the two groups of people grew larger and larger, like two whirlpools with huge gravitational pull.
But obviously, as long as the vortex is big enough, they will collide one day.
I don't know whose backpack rubbed against another person's body, and sparks were instantly ignited by this small friction.
"What are you doing? Are you doing this on purpose?" a fan holding an American flag cursed in English.
"It was just the backpack that hit you, is there any need to make such a fuss?" Even if the Chinese woman quarrels in a foreign language, she is still full of energy.
"Huh! Are all of He Hui's fans so rude?"
"Humph! Are all Ophelia's fans so unreasonable?"
If the other members of the two sides' support groups hadn't pulled them back, the two would have almost turned from talking to fighting.
The atmosphere of this duel had reached a whole new level before it even started.
