Chapter 1218 Another dance

Just when Lina was in a state of confusion, the elder said, "This year, there were relatively rare situations. There were two first prize winners, and their scores were 97.7 points, and the other first prize winner was Lina     atkinson."

Lina covered her chest with her hands, ecstatic and excited, and she felt like she was riding a roller coaster.

"Congratulations, lina," the elder hugged her, and the girl who tied for the first prize with her also hugged her, followed by Zhao Wenting and several other judges.

The contestants who did not win the award, if not Russians, could leave Moscow today, and if they stayed, they could continue to participate in the final award ceremony of the competition.

But usually, no one stays.

lina couldn't wait to tell her relatives and friends the good news, and Liu Lan and the others were waiting for her at the gate of the Grand Theater!

She planned to go out from the backstage exit, and Zhao Wenting caught up with her behind, "lina, wait."

lina immediately stood up, "Hello, Ms. Zhao."

She has read the rating list. Zhao Wenting is the one with the highest score among all the judges. She gave her a full score. Lina is very grateful to her.

"I have something to discuss with you, let's find a quiet place to talk about."

People came and went backstage, and the two walked to an empty room, and Zhao Wenting closed the door.

Seeing her solemn appearance, Lina was a little nervous.

But Zhao Wenting always had a smile on her face, and she asked lina, "How did you think of integrating Chinese elements into ballet?"

"Since I came to China, I have made many friends. They have taught me about Chinese culture and Chinese art. I really like things related to China, such as Hanfu, Guzheng and Guqin, and calligraphy. I also learned some Chinese dance skills from the dance teachers of the Chinese film crew. In fact, I have tried to dance ballet in Hanfu in China, and I am in the United States..." Lina paused for a moment, knowing that she was wrong, "This competition is also an attempt."

“Just try?”

"Yes, because I've never seen other dancers do this."

"I am Chinese. I have lived in Moscow for more than 30 years, but I don't have the courage of you. I dance in this stage in the way of Chinese." Zhao Wenting's eyes showed a hint of emotion and shame. She spent most of her life learning and imitating Western dance habits to cater to the aesthetics of Westerners. However, this foreign girl did the opposite. After watching "Transition and Thousands of Returns" off the stage, the pride of being a Chinese emerged in her heart.

The last time she felt like this was probably when she was nineteen years old, she stood on the podium of the Moscow Ballet Competition.

As a Chinese, she prefers Lina's performance; as a judge, she knows that Lina can win the first place, and several judges intend to give Lina points, so she can be ranked alongside another girl.

She was unfair, but she could not do anything about it. This is Russia, and she and Lina are both outsiders. The Russians can make Lina the first place because of the friendly relations between China and Russia.

If Lina is an American... it will be difficult for her to enter the top three.

Zhao Wenting not only favors lina in terms of scores, she said, "Would you like to perform another Chinese-style solo dance at the awards ceremony?"

"Can I?" lina asked in a daze.

Zhao Wenting smiled and said, "You are the first prize for women dancing alone, why can't you?"

But she didn't prepare for the second dance!

There are only three days left before the award ceremony. How could she prepare for a new dance in such a short time?

Zhao Wenting also considered this issue, "You choose one of the dances you usually practice. This is how the contestants used to do. Of course, if you think it's too late, we'll find someone else."

"It's too late, it's too late," lina said quickly. Many world ballet masters will attend the award ceremony, and the award ceremony will also be broadcast live to the world. How can she give up people to such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to show her face?

Zhao Wenting nodded with satisfaction and gently placed her hand on her shoulder, "I hope I can see your better performance and give me a greater surprise."

Not every "first place" can dance at the awards ceremony. Usually the event will only choose one person or a team, because the participants of other performances at the awards ceremony are all successful dancers around the world.

Zhao Wenting used all her face in the Russian ballet industry to win this opportunity for Lina. In addition to the performance, Zhao Wenting also told Lina about the process of receiving the award, such as she would also have a link to deliver a speech. Zhao Wenting asked Lina to prepare her speech and do a good job of formalism.

Everyone was excited about the good news that Lina won the first prize and prepared to celebrate together. Lina told them about the performance of the award ceremony.

"I can't celebrate for the time being. I have to prepare my second dance. Mo Zhen, please continue to help with the accompaniment. My little sister, you can't go back to New York anymore. Please stay and continue to help me put on makeup."

"Oh my God, we only have three days to prepare for such a major performance venue, what should I prepare?" Shen Mozhen was a little confused.

"We have collaborated on this song before," said Drunken Breeze.

"This song is too classic and not suitable for ballet. When we performed, your dance and melody were not harmonious and the layman couldn't see it. But at the award ceremony, there were all judges at the judges. I'm afraid you will backfire when you choose it."

Of course, Lina thought of Shen Mozhen's concern. In fact, ballet and pure ancient Chinese music are not in tune with each other, and there is a sense of incongruity. "Traveling and Thousands of Returns" is perfect because Huo Ming's arrangement added Western music elements and revised the elements of ballet again to soothe the sense of incongruity and cater to the preferences of Western judges.

"The Drunken Breeze" does not meet the tastes of Westerners. Shen Mozhen used to perform in Europe with the National Folk Orchestra, and he learned this. If he really danced "The Drunken Breeze", he would probably increase the reputation that Lina finally got on the court to zero.

lina frowned, "I can't do anything. Ms. Zhao's meaning is very clear. She just asked me to continue to show the dance of Chinese elements. I can't choose the orthodox ballet I've skipped before. Otherwise, the final result would still disappoint them."

This is really tricky.

Several people were quiet, and Liu Lan suddenly said, "Don't you have a ballet in the mv of "That     Princess        Han"? You can dance it and just use the original accompaniment belt."

"that    princess     from     han" is written by Jason, which is absolutely loved by Westerners, and can be seen from the sales volume so far.

Lina hesitated, "Then I have to ask Jason for the consent," the experience of filming MV for "that     princess
