Chapter 198 Ballet dancer

"Minnie, I don't read much, don't lie to me. Are you from the Australian Ballet? Is there a ballerina as tall as you?" Xiao Peng pointed to the tallest girl and said, the other four girls are all about 160, and the male is only about 1.7 meters, but the girl Xiao Peng carried back yesterday is at least 177. This height is about the same as a model, can you be a ballerina?

is like the famous movie star Audrey Hepburn, who turned out to be a ballet dancer, but because she is 170 tall, this height will never be the principal, so she went to make movies. Thank God, thank you for making her 170 tall, otherwise we would definitely have one less Oscar-winning actress。。。。。。

Audrey Hepburn, who was 170 tall, gave up ballet, but what happened to Minnie Mouse, who was 177? This height can be fatal for ballet dancers. Studies have shown that the height of male dancers with the highest success rate is 175-179, and the height of female dancers with the highest success rate is 160-164. She can't find a dance partner at her height. Do you think, the height of 177 is two meters on tiptoe, and there may be a play in modern dance at this height, but it is a classical ballet。。。。。。 How tall do you want her to dance?

Of course, some people have said that now people are taller, if you look at the Liaoning Ballet, almost all the girls who dance ballet are 168!

Let's talk about the results. How many of the world's famous ballet companies have female principal dancers who are more than 165 tall?

With Minnie's height, either she won't be able to get results, or she will be a soloist.

The few people who were rescued by Xiao Peng were actors of the Australian Ballet, this was a holiday, and the group made an appointment to come to the Great Barrier Reef to relax together, but they encountered this tropical cyclone, and before they could start playing, their lives were almost buried here.

In fact, ballet is a lofty art form, in a sense, it has developed very well in China: from the Qing Dynasty palace performance, to 1921, the Russians taught ballet in Shanghai, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the dancer Dai Ailian's first ballet "Dove of Peace" on the stage in Beijing, to this day, Western ballet has evolved into "Oriental ballet", starting from the "Red Detachment of Women" and "White-Haired Girl" in the red era, to the modern "Mei Lanfang", "Turandot", "Liang Zhu" and "Yellow River" and other dramas, which continue to win awards in international competitions and occupy a place on the international stage.

But from another point of view, the development of ballet in China is too tragic. Because most Chinese appreciate the art form more "Little Apple", "The Most Dazzling National Style" and the like, who can stand it if you are used to seeing the 'Lower Riba People' and let him accept the things of 'Yangchun White Snow'?

Therefore, for domestic ballet dancers, the biggest goal is to show themselves through international ballet competitions, and then every time there are working positions of famous ballet companies from all over the world at the competition site, representatives of all groups are at the competition site, and when the contestants win the award, they can sign contracts immediately, and most international competitions have become the signing meeting of ballet companies. Countless Chinese ballet dancers have either changed careers or gone out. For example, France, Italy, and so on.

Just like Di Lieba, Yao Chen, Liu Shishi, etc., why don't you dance ballet? Ballet income is low, you are like the famous Emperor Ballet, the starting salary of group dance is 1,500 pounds, and the ordinary principal is 3,000 pounds a month, only a few stars will be charged per scene, and a dance is only a few thousand dollars. How simple is it to run to the entertainment industry? To be an actor and singer, to put out a variety show, to sing a song for tens of millions or millions, why bother to work for one minute on stage and ten years off the stage? Like a certain former diva who sells sky-high tickets, participating in a commercial performance for 2 million and a song is out of tune. I can't ask for it。。。。。

Well, it's a bit off-topic, but which country has the most Chinese ballet talent outflow?

Ballet is very popular in Australia, in addition to the four most famous ballet companies, there are countless small ballet companies in Australia, there are about 50,000 professional ballet dancers in the whole country, which may not seem like much, but counting their population base, it is terrifying, on average, one in every 500 people dances ballet.

Because of the popularity of Australian ballet, it has also become the preferred target for Chinese ballet dancers to go abroad, many Chinese ballet dancers choose talents to immigrate to Australia, and almost all ballet companies in Australia, regardless of size, have Chinese dancers going abroad. Many people use this as a springboard to go to Australia to find a new life, and many people are still chasing their dance dreams, such as Guo Chengwu, the current principal soloist of the Australian National Ballet, and even Li Cunxin, the director of Queensland Ballet, one of Australia's four major ballet companies, is from Qingdao.

Oh, and now he's Australian.

In other words, now Xiao Peng believes that those people are all ballet dancers, and they are all so thin.

A girl named Amy answered Xiao Peng's question: "Mr. Xiao, we really didn't lie to you, we both graduated from the Australian Ballet Dance School, and just joined the Australian Ballet. ”

Xiao Peng heard this and nodded secretly, which shows that Minnie's dance level is indeed not low, and soloists have high requirements for dancers, requiring good physical fitness, skilled technical skills, superb expressiveness and comprehensive artistic accomplishment. Like Minnie Mouse is so tall, her height and legs are as long as a compass, and when you do a jump, you can see two long legs. She must look good in a solo dance, but it will require more effort from her.

Thinking of this, Xiao Peng couldn't help but be impressed by Minnie. Well, she is tall and has long legs, but it's a pity that her breasts are a little smaller, alas, who made her thin?

Minnie's little face was blushing when she was stared at by Xiao Peng: "That, Mr. Xiao, I heard that you brought me back yesterday? Thank you very much." ”

Xiao Peng waved his hand: "It's really not to be brought back, it's to be carried back, if I hug you, I won't be able to bring them back." ”

Xiao Peng didn't say nonsense, a few people yesterday can be said to have dragged him and Yang Meng back, and Benson can guarantee that it would be good if he came back. As for the other few people, none of the four girls exceeded 90 pounds, while the two boys looked good muscles, but they had no fat at all, and they weighed less than 100 pounds, which was a rhythm that could directly blow the wind away.

Minnie was stunned, this person couldn't chat anymore, Xiao Peng looked at them all standing there: "Don't stand there, all sit, do you drink coffee?"

Amy listened: "Mr. Xiao, just wait for your words, we can smell the aroma of coffee in the room." ”

"If you want to drink coffee, why are you so polite?" Xiao Peng invited a few people to sit in the living room drinking coffee and chatting, but it was not boring. In particular, they are both very curious about China, and they ask Xiao Peng a lot of questions, but it is easy to talk together.

At this moment, Mengzi's phone rang, he picked up the phone, said a few words, and handed the phone to Xiao Peng, who was chatting there: "Yellow Crane phone." ”

Xiao Peng took the phone, apologized to everyone, and went to the next room: "Hey, Lao Huang, what's the matter?"

Huang He's anxious tone came from the phone: "Brother Peng, what's the matter, Mengzi said that you two encountered a typhoon?

"What can we do? Also, in Australia, it's called a tropical cyclone, not a typhoon. When are you coming? When you're coming, I'll meet you in Sydney. Xiao Peng said.

"Wait for this one。。。。。。 When a tropical cyclone passes, we pass. Brother Peng, you are making a big deal, and the domestic media are reporting it. Huang He said.

Yang Meng pouted: "I didn't do it, I just promised to let our horse farm pick the horses, what can they do if they want to publicize me?"

Huang He said mysteriously: "You don't know, this matter is quite important in China, it is said to be a new chapter in the cooperation between the two countries, and it is also very important, and I hope we will purchase more Australian horses." ”

Xiao Peng was stunned: "What do you mean? What do you mean to purchase more? Let's help the horse owner choose the horse, only choose the right one, okay, don't bring anything special to bring back, you tell Bob what I mean, we must ensure the quality, and be responsible for our members!"

Huang He hesitated: "That。。。。。。 Brother Peng, it's better for us to discuss this matter again. ”

"What are we discussing? This is a business activity of a private enterprise, and we are not a state-owned enterprise, so if you get some crooked melons and cracked dates back now, who will you smash your name? Or is it from our racecourse! This kind of opening cannot be opened! This matter is not negotiable, forget it, let's talk about it when we meet in Sydney, you bite me about this matter, and I will solve it when the time comes. Xiao Peng said.

After hearing this, Huang He thought for a while: "Okay, Brother Peng, I know what to do, you can rest assured." ”

Xiao Peng said: "That's okay, let's talk about it when we meet, by the way, are there many people coming this time?"

Huang He was silent for a while and said: "Let's charter a plane directly, do you say the scale is not big? Not only our horse farm, but also several horse owners from the horse farm are also coming." It is a large-scale horse procurement activity. ”

Xiao Peng was stunned: "What horse farm? ”

Huang He smiled bitterly: "Brother Peng, I said, this matter has been taken seriously。。。。。。 ”

Xiao Peng was completely speechless now, well, the matter of buying a horse by himself has now become a national-level procurement project. Although he was very dissatisfied with this matter, Xiao Peng really couldn't say anything.

Huang He continued: "By the way, Brother Peng, this fart fair also has equestrian exchange activities, including racing and equestrian triathlon, after discussing with Bob, I will bring the 'Titan' and the Andalusian horse called 'Mantou' to meet with you. ”

"What are you doing with 'steamed buns'?" "'Steamed buns' is an Andalusian horse brought home from Dubai, except for one of which Xiaoice Jie named 'Flower Dew Water', the rest gave Xiao Peng the names of the food: steamed buns, steamed buns, dumplings, and baked cakes。。。。。。 The steamed bun is the most beautiful one in it.

Huang He said: "In addition to racing, there are also equestrian triathlons in equestrian exchange activities, and I am going to let Lao Zhu and Mantou participate together to show the strength of our equestrian triathlons." ”

Xiao Peng thought for a while: "When the time comes, I will play in person." ”

Huang He asked in surprise: "Brother Peng, are you personally on it? It's equestrian triathlon, not horse racing, it's a completely different thing, can you do it?"

Xiao Peng gave him the answer: "Isn't it equestrian triathlon? I have studied with Hua Tian for a while, no problem." We'll see. ”
