When she arrived at the rehearsal room, Tong Xinyao danced the result of her own blind practice. With her strong talent, the dance teacher thought it was pretty good and basically reached the recording level. However, there were still some details that needed to be corrected, and the dance teacher also gave them instructions one by one. She perfects.
Phew, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that the results she could show were still not as good as the action specifications in the video. Fortunately, she met the teacher's requirements.
Because other contestants also made appointments with teachers for guidance, the teacher left after giving her instructions. Tong Xinyao also planned to take a rest.
On the way to the bathroom, Tong Xinyao passed by other players practicing in the rehearsal room, and she couldn't help but stop and watch outside the door.
So beautiful, the movements are so standard, is that really a contestant and not a dance teacher? He's a player, and we met him in the last game.
Tong Xinyao suddenly felt that her dancing was terrible. With such a gap, losing in the competition on the same stage would not look good. She decided to dig out the details of her movements bit by bit on the video.
For dinner, she took the meal ticket given by the program crew to the cafeteria for a few bites, and then immediately returned to the rehearsal room to continue practicing.
It was already eleven o'clock in the evening. After a night of practice, Tong Xinyao had improved a lot compared to the afternoon, but she was still not satisfied. She probably entered that world and her drive for excellence as an athlete was stimulated.
She had never studied Latin systematically, and there were a few moves that she always found difficult to do. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't achieve the same charm as in the teacher's video, but she still didn't want to give up.
"elder sister?"
Just when she was "obsessed", the word "sister" appeared. It must be Shen Miao. He seemed surprised that Tong Xinyao was still here.
"Sister, why are you still here so late? The other contestants have already left. I came to check if the lights are turned off."
"Hey, I'm usually lazy. I'm not allowed to hug Buddhism before recording. Am I hindering your work? Then I should go back first?" He is just an intern. If the lights are still on, he will be scolded.
"It's okay sister, you can continue practicing. They are all off work. They just asked me to check before leaving. I'm here to watch my sister practice."
"Are you sure? I may need a moment, or I can turn off the lights and tell you later?"
"No, I just want to watch my sister dance." After saying that, he sat down and said, "Sister, just pretend that I don't exist."
Now that he said so, Tong Xinyao continued to practice on her own. Shen Miao also noticed that she seemed to have trouble with this movement, so she got up.
"Sister, you can do this here, lift your hips first, then lift your legs, keep your hips still, and then use your legs to move your hips..." He said while demonstrating.
Tong Xinyao tried it according to his instructions, and it was much smoother and had a bit of that taste.
She finally showed the smile she had not seen for a long time today, "Why do you know Latin? I remember you didn't study... musical theater?"
"Musicals also require dancing, sister, but I can dance Latin because I used to study Latin, and I only switched to musicals and vocals before the art exam, so I can be considered a dabbler."
"Where, if you can pass the exam, you will be very good. You are only a freshman." With his guidance, Tong Xinyao directly conquered her unique set of movements and could finally go back to rest.
"Let's go, I've finished practicing. Thank you, Teacher Shen, for your guidance." Tong Xinyao deliberately copied the 180-degree bow he gave her at that time.
"Hey sister, sister," Shen Miao said anxiously, "I can't bear this." He knelt down to help her, almost kneeling on the ground.
"In other words, if I came to see my sister earlier, she wouldn't have to think about it alone until so late."
"Yes, I still have to rely on Teacher Shen to guide me."
This time the teacher called Shen Miao embarrassed, "Let's go, I'll take my sister back."
"Okay, let's go."
on the road,
"Sister, you will come to rehearse as soon as you get off the plane today. Are you tired?"
"Fortunately, I didn't get up early this morning. I also squinted for a while on the plane. The main reason is that the program team has a car to pick me up at the airport. I don't have to use my brain and I'm not that tired."
"I looked at the rehearsal schedule and my sister is scheduled for the afternoon. She can also take a break tomorrow morning."
"Um...but you still have to practice before the rehearsal, and you can't sleep too late." Is this the self-restraint of athletes?
"Okay, sister has practiced very well. There's no need to get up too early. Come up and have a rest. Good night!" Shen Miao was still standing at the stairs, watching Tong Xinyao go upstairs.
"Okay, please pay attention to safety when you go back." Tong Xinyao had already turned around, and she saw from the corner of her eye that Shen Miao hadn't moved, "Why are you still standing there stupidly? Go back quickly!"
"Sister, let's go first. Come up quickly."
Tong Xinyao had no choice but to turn around and go upstairs. Shen Miao didn't leave until she disappeared around the corner of the stairs.
It was indeed a bit late to practice tonight, but the biggest difficulty of this dance has been overcome. Tong Xinyao slept peacefully and slept until past nine o'clock the next day. After washing up leisurely, she went to the canteen to buy breakfast, and then arrived Practice in the rehearsal room.
After practicing for so long last night and practicing again this morning, Tong Xinyao has already formed muscle memory, and the rehearsal passed quickly.
"Teacher Tong has improved a lot today than yesterday." This is the evaluation given to her by the dance teacher. Well, the amount of practice yesterday and today combined was more than what she practiced at home for a week.
Shen Miao was also in the audience and gave Tong Xinyao a big thumbs up.
After Tong Xinyao stepped off the stage, Shen Miao also ran to the backstage, "Sister, the teacher who just praised you is Teacher Orange, the leader of the choreography group. He rarely praises others. Sister is really amazing."
Tong Xinyao didn't pay much attention, "He just said that I have made progress. You don't know how bad I was in my first dance yesterday. There is naturally much room for improvement."
"It's really not true. This is already a compliment to Teacher Orange. He won't even mention progress if it doesn't meet his requirements. In his words, all quantitative progress that cannot lead to qualitative changes is meaningless."
"So cruel? But it's not important. It's more important to perform well in the recording tomorrow. I'll go to the rehearsal room to find out the feeling."
"Okay, sister, please be safe and don't get hurt. I have to go back to work, so I'm leaving first."
Because Latina had to wear high heels and she had an old ankle injury, even though they were soft soles, she would still feel some discomfort after wearing them for a long time. Tong Xinyao did not dare to practice too hard and went back to the dormitory to rest after dinner.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Shen Miao was probably sent to check to turn off the lights again but did not see Tong Xinyao. Tong Xinyao received the message from him,
Shen Miao: [Sister, has she returned to the dormitory? She is not lost, right? 】
Tong Xinyao: [I will be back after dinner. 】
Shen Miao: [Okay, sister, have a good rest and perform well tomorrow. There will be a surprise at the end of the recording. 】
