Chapter 156 Mission 7: The Cripple Also Has a Dream of Dancing 17
Tang Lan and everyone else laughed. The person who stole their ideas and designs had now shot himself in the foot. Before the end, the lighting engineer ran backstage and told the organizers and judges that the dance background video of the Chinese team was lost.
The people on the stage shamelessly performed the entire dance.
This time, it became the laughing stock of the dance art world all over the world. Even if it wanted to deny it, it couldn't be denied because there were subtitles on it.
The island nation was directly removed from the competition and did not participate in the subsequent judging. Even their other representative teams left the competition early in disgrace.
Wen Wan led the Chinese dance troupe to dance the dance again. With the comparison, the difference was clear. Everyone could tell which one was authentic and which one was a fake at a glance.
Tang Lan stood backstage with the lighting technician, photographer, makeup artist, etc., watching the girls on the stage.
"Teacher Tang, did they steal our background video?"
Tang Lan was still completely bewildered. If Wen Wan had taken precautions and intended to replace the competition film in advance, who could have imagined that the other party would actually steal it? If it weren't for the subtitles, this matter would be hard to explain, at least internationally, it would be a huge snafu. But with the subtitles, it was set in stone.
The group dance "Rainbow Skirt and Feathered Coat" entered the top five and won the silver medal of the competition, which is a good result of fifth place.
The girls hugged each other and cried. After practicing for half a year, they finally got a place among hundreds of group dances. Compared with their previous results, this was the best result.
Wen Wan's solo dance, "Flying Snow and Red Plum Blossoms," made it all the way to the finals. After reaching the top ten soloists, she noticed that all the contestants' dancing skills had improved significantly. Either they had improved recently, or some were hiding their weaknesses. It takes a lot of confidence for those who hide their weaknesses to grasp their results and advance smoothly.
She also improved her dancing skills and made it into the top five with "Flying Snow and Red Plum".
Each competition had a different panel of judges, and the further you went, the higher the profile of the judges, all masters and artists in the field of dance. When she was competing for the top five, she was drawn to be the third to go on stage. When the first-place winner changed her repertoire, Wen Wan also had to change her repertoire.
Tang Lan told her, "Among the top five contenders, four changed their repertoires, and only the first-place winner of the previous gold medal didn't."
When Wen Wan came on stage, the lighting technician played the background video she had prepared, but she turned on the supercomputer in her storage ring. For a moment, the entire stage turned into a world of flying snow, and her body curled up into a ball like an egg.
The phoenix is the sacred bird of China and, like the dragon, is the totem of the Chinese people. What she wants to show is the story of the birth of a phoenix and her rebirth from the ashes. The super powerful and shocking effect brought by the supercomputer, coupled with her beautiful dance, when she performs, the whole audience is silent and only the low breathing sound can be heard.
The phoenix is born, the flowers bloom, and the birds follow. The whole stage becomes a very fairy-like fantasy scene.
The lighting engineer who was playing the film felt like he was in a dream. He had played this segment many times recently, and although the images were all the same, there was no such realistic and shocking feeling.
So beautiful!
The phoenix dances, and the stage does not look like a human being, but more like a mythical bird from the East. She spreads her wings and soars high in the sky, leaping and jumping with extreme artistic charm.
"Oh my God, what a great dancer! This is the most beautiful dance I've ever seen. How did she fly? Was she hanging on a safety rope?"
There was no trace of a safety rope on the dazzling stage.
But all those who watched the dance were enjoying the feast brought by this dance.
Wen Wan entered a mysterious realm during her passionate performance. She was the phoenix. She felt that she had really transformed into a phoenix, performing the story of the phoenix and telling the story of the phoenix's nirvana. When she finished the dance, there was thunderous applause and cheers.
"Ji! Ji!"
“J!J…”
Those who knew her last name was Ji, while those who didn’t called her “J” thought her name was the English letter “J”.
Wen Wan stood still on the stage, unable to recover for a long time. She had actually achieved enlightenment through dance. Her dance soul: rebirth. It was as if she had gone through birth, death, and rebirth from the ashes.
She finally understood why she didn't see the original owner's soul after entering this world, because she was the original owner.
When she finished her performance, it was the process of the original body of the space in her body completing the fusion with the body of this world. She could sense the space again, but still could not open the space. This was the confinement of the laws of heaven. She could sense that she was no longer just a person, but had become a "god".
Tang Lan stood behind the stage and shouted at her, "Wen Wan, take your curtain call!"
She came to her senses and said to the teachers and audience below the stage: "I'm so excited, I'm stunned. I've never heard so much applause and cheers before. Thank you all for your love, thank you..."
She said thank you in English and then repeated it in French.
The audience applauded like thunder and continuously. She bowed once more and walked off the stage.
Wen Wan won the gold medal in this choreography competition, which means first place.
There is only one gold award in the choreography competition. The first place is the gold award, the second place is the silver award, the third place is the bronze award, the fourth to tenth places are collectively known as the second prize, and the eleventh to fifteenth places are collectively known as the third prize.
At this moment, Wen Wan finally stepped into the threshold of international top dancers and became a world-class dance artist.
The three dances in the international choreography competition all have the characteristics of Chinese classical dance. The Phoenix, Red Plum Blossom, and Colorful Feathered Dress are all characteristics of China. The Red Plum Blossom represents the Chinese red, the Phoenix is the Chinese sacred bird, and even the Colorful Feathered Dress is a court dance from the heyday of the Tang Dynasty.
Wen Wan returned home with honors, and the incident of the background film of the stage being stolen during the competition became a good story, which enhanced the country's prestige and demonstrated the highest level of Chinese dance art.
Domestic television stations and newspapers competed to report the good news. Among the photos were photos of Wenwan participating in the competition, from the photos of "Rainbow Skirt and Feathered Coat" to "Flying Snow and Red Plum" and "Phoenix Rising from the Ashes". There was overwhelming coverage and overwhelming glory. When she returned to China, she received an invitation from CCTV to participate in this year's Spring Festival Gala and sing "Rainbow Skirt and Feathered Coat".
The girls who had been rehearsing earlier wanted to take a break, but Tang Lan urged them to go back to the dance rehearsal room of the Art Academy to continue training, hoping to perform their award-winning dance on the Spring Festival Gala.
Wen Wan also received an invitation from the Central Ballet Company. The company director even came to her house in person, hoping that she could become a member of the Central Ballet Company after graduation. In March next year, they will go on an overseas tour to introduce Chinese dance art to the world.
While she was hesitating, Director Qiao and Tang Lan of the Central Art Troupe came to her house. After analyzing the pros and cons, they hoped that she would join the Central Ballet Company. Although there were two principal dancers there, if Wen Wan went there, she would also be a principal dancer, and it was more suitable for her development.
