Chapter 496: It was a good time
In an indoor squash court, Taeyeon holds a long pole with a thick end and a thin end, with the thin end about the size of an egg and the thick end slightly larger.
Taeyeon held the pole as straight as she could, moving her body with the pole's center of gravity. Although she can keep the pole in the air for a long time, running around chasing the center of gravity of the pole is obviously not in order.
And the others have long been tired of watching Taeyeon play with the pole, and even Su-young, who thought it was quite dramatic at first, can't afford to encourage Taeyeon to cheer now. Except for Xiuying, Tiffany was left on the spot, and everyone else went to play squash with a smile.
Barbara had been sitting on a chair on the periphery of the venue and watching Taeyeon, but she was wearing a pair of dark sunglasses, so she couldn't tell if she was really looking at Taeyeon.
Taeyeon screamed and ran on the pole for a while, trying to achieve the direction that Titan's coach had told to control the pole's center of gravity to be reversed, and then stood in place and spun in circles to keep the pole upright. But she found it quite difficult to sit up, because the pole she was dragging was very tough, and any force she applied to one end of the pole would trigger reverberating movements at the other end, making adjusting and controlling the center of gravity of the pole not as simple as she thought.
After a while, Taeyeon chased the center of gravity of the pole too hard and too fast, causing the pole to fall in the opposite direction, so fast that she couldn't react at all, and finally sat on the ground with her butt exhausted as the pole ended.
As soon as Taeyeon stopped, both so-young and Tiffany looked at Barbara, but Barbara ignored them and shouted to Taeyeon, "Get up!" Keep practicing! ”
Su-young and Tiffany looked at each other, then looked sympathetically at Taeyeon sitting in the middle of the field, while the others were still yelling and playing squash as if they didn't care that their captain was suffering here.
Taeyeon sat on the ground with her hands propped up, looked at Barbara with a bitter face, and shouted vigorously, "Ah!! ”
“?” Barbara was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the computer that was turned on in front of her, and then shouted in half-baked Korean: "It's useless for you to call!" Get up and keep practicing! ”
"Barbara, you're a demon!" Taeyeon sits on the floor kicking her legs.
Barbara looked at the screen again, then nodded, put her hands to her mouth in a trumpet shape, and shouted to Taeyeon again, "You're right!" The contract has been signed! So you have to practice, you have to practice, and you have to practice if you don't practice! ”
Both so-young and Tiffany looked at Barbara with timid eyes, and then at Taeyeon sympathetically, and so-young couldn't help but shout, "Come on baby Taeyeon!" After this level, she won't be able to control you! ”
Su-young's salutation really made Taeyeon fight spirit, turned over and got up, and at the same time shouted at so-young in annoyance, "Ah! You go and play! ”
Xiuying pouted and looked at Tiffany aggrievedly and whispered, "I said that because I felt sorry for her......"
Tiffany nodded, saying that she also felt sorry for Taeyeon, but she understood Barbara's intention to let the others go to the side, leaving only her and so-young to accompany Taeyeon, and so-young seemed to be able to ignite Taeyeon's fighting spirit every time she spoke. And it's the same when she speaks, but so-young is more unlucky, and Taeyeon's reply is not very friendly every time.
When Barbara saw that Taeyeon had gotten up to pick up the pole, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly and nodded, but she still shouted, "Hurry up!" Do you want to be your radio host in a while?! ”
Taeyeon replied angrily, "Got it!!" ~”
Xiuying pouted and glanced at Barbara again, and then said to Tiffany, "Does Barbara just want us to break up the dormitory?" ”
Tiffany couldn't help but laugh and replied, "Definitely not, you can see that you can still easily cheer up Taeyeon by talking." ”
"Hmph~" Xiuying depressedly dropped the towel in her hand into a travel bag on the ground.
Tiffany shrugged her shoulders and shouted at Taeyeon again, "Taikoo! Come on~~~"
Taeyeon had just put the pole up again, and the pestle shook slightly on the ground to feel the center of gravity and the movement of the top of the pole, and after hearing Tiffany's encouragement, he suddenly smiled and gave Tiffany a thumbs up, but as soon as this action was made, Taeyeon heard Barbara shout, "You've given more than 70 thumbs up, are you sure this action represents success?" ”
Taeyeon suddenly looked at Barbara angrily, and while holding on to the pole, she stomped her foot and said, "Ah! Barbara, you're a big badass! ”
And Barbara had heard Taeyeon say this many times today, so she immediately stretched out her hands in front of her, made a thumbs-up gesture with both hands, and deliberately strengthened the effect to make her hands pause.
Su-young couldn't help but shout at Taeyeon again: "Taeyeon, Barbara, she is saying that her thumbs-up action is called success~"
Tiffany looked at Su-young amusedly, "You were worried that Taeyeon broke with you just now, and now you're irritating her, aren't you a snake spirit disease?" ”
Xiuying rubbed the back of her neck with a smile and said, "I can't help but tease Taeyeon when I see Taeyeon's embarrassed expression, it's so fun......"
Taeyeon naturally knows what Barbara's thumbs up means, and the damn Phoebe has made an instant voice translation software, which allows Barbara to understand what everyone is saying in a short time, even if it's swearing, and at the same time help Barbara "scold back" in a variety of ways.
Since the start of this unique training, Barbara has become completely different from usual, always trying to stimulate Taeyeon in a way - of course, at the beginning, Barbara said that this is to make Taeyeon feel more about her movements than on thinking.
It's like a thumbs up action, after Taeyeon did it a few times at first, Barbara found a new stimulation point, and then as long as Taeyeon does this action again, Barbara will definitely say that Taeyeon doing this action can only represent failure, at the beginning Taeyeon also replied that Barbara is a demon, but when it comes to the third time, Barbara comes up with a new trick, and every time there is a thumbs up or is said to be a demon, Barbara will definitely give a thumbs up, indicating that she has done it successfully.
Unbeknownst to everyone, some of Barbara's decisions were made with the help of Asteria, who was able to combine and share information, experience and knowledge to help Titan's employees work in different fields without experience and knowledge. The knowledge of psycho-behavioral analysis is also included, and it is not very difficult for Titan employees to stimulate and amplify certain emotions of outsiders and guide their thoughts and actions with the help of Asteria.
Phoebe thinks that training Taeyeon herself is the worst decision she can make, as it will take Taeyeon more time to master the skills required for the shoot, and Barbara is definitely the right person at this time - even though she is also very busy.
Sure enough, Barbara understands what Phoebe explained very thoroughly, and although she has been stimulating Taeyeon to control the long pole with her feelings, she also leaves Suyoung and Tiffany, the two people who have the strongest influence on Taeyeon, to help her share the bad negative emotions that Taeyeon has been aroused.
Taeyeon gritted her teeth and lifted the pole again, after more than seventy years of practice, to be honest, she was indeed familiar with some of the characteristics of this long pole, and after holding it up, she did not immediately stare at the top of the pole as she did in the first few times, but focused her eyes on the ground, and at the same time she slowly shook her upper body with her waist as the axis, but her feet tried to stand as firmly on the ground as possible.
Seeing this, Barbara's eyes behind her sunglasses widened a little, in fact, she had a hunch that Taeyeon was almost about to succeed, which was the reason why her urging of Taeyeon became more and more intense. Barbara glanced at the motion capture on the other computer, nodded slightly, and then looked at Taeyeon intently again.
And so-young and Tiffany also felt that this time was a little different from so many times before, so they both covered their mouths and watched Taeyeon in the venue with bated breath.
Taeyeon pursed her lips and endured not looking at the pole, but focused on the feeling in her hands and looking at the ground to maintain her balance, while thinking about the dynamic analysis of the human body force that she saw when she watched the commentary video at the beginning, and then slightly shifted her body's center of gravity, and at the same time took a cautious step with her shoulders to control the direction and size of the force applied by her arms to the pole.
Then there are two steps.
Then turn around......
After walking about ten steps with the pole in place, Taeyeon heard Barbara shout in her weird tone, "You don't have to practice walking with a flagpole!" I'm going to see you swing even more in your hands! ”
Taeyeon rolls her eyes and says you think it's easy!?
And after Barbara finished speaking, so-young and Tiffnay shouted in unison, "Come on, Taeyeon!" ~”
Taeyeon pursed her lips and held her breath, recalling the explanation of the use of power on the commentary video, and continued to endure not looking at the top of the pole, and moved with her feet as a force again......
"Taeyeon is so pathetic......" Sunny said as he sat on the edge of the pitch and looked at the pole that had been erected again.
"Well, but I think it's easy to hold that long pole, why can't Taeyeon do it?" Xiao Yuan shook his head and said.
Jessica frowned and whispered: "To be honest, I think the commentary video I watched at the beginning is a bit fake, and it is also said that the Chinese only have a few powerful generals who can use this weapon, and it is obviously easy to carry it away." ”
Sunny shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know, people have said that it is a dynamic mechanical analysis of ductile bodies or something, it should be very powerful......
Xiao Yuan suddenly said: "But I know Zhao Yun, he is indeed very powerful, he can ride alone for thousands of miles." ”
“…… Don't tell people that you're familiar with China, really. Jessica looked at Hyoyeon with a smile in her eyes.
“…… Am I not right? Hyoyeon looked at Sunny with a confused expression.
Sunny raised his eyebrows, and then said to Xiao Yuan seriously: "Thousands of miles away on a single ride seems to be a guy who eloped with his sister-in-law for love, right?" ”
"......" Jessica turned her head to the other side with a look of disdain.
Sunny laughed when she finished speaking, because she saw that Hyo-yeon seemed to be seriously thinking about who was so awesome to walk a thousand miles with his sister-in-law for love and only brought a horse.
Sunny covered his forehead with a smile and said, "Xiaoyuan, I obeyed you, Jessica is right, don't tell people that you are most familiar with China." The name of Guan Yu who rode alone for thousands of miles was Guan Yu, he was going to send his sister-in-law to his eldest brother, and nothing happened to his sister-in-law on the way! ”
After Sunny finished speaking, before Hyoyeon could react, Jessica first pushed Sunny angrily, Sunny didn't look like pretending at all just now, and even made her feel that Sunny was telling the "truth".
"Oops~ Why are you pushing me......" Sunny looked at Jessica who had a sudden seizure with a smile, Jessica frowned and pouted, "You know that Xiaoyuan is informal, so you can't help playing like this?" ”
Hyo-yeon realized that Sunny was joking with himself, but seeing that Jessica was a little angry, he said, "Sika, Sunny is joking like this, but I am quite impressed, and I will be able to distinguish it next time." But we don't study ancient Chinese history, and we don't usually come into contact with this kind of thing, so why do you remember this? ”
"......" Sunny and Jessica were both speechless for a while, yes, how do they remember Chinese historical figures?
Jessica pursed her lips and said, "When I was in the United States, there were often celebrations in Chinatown, so I knew about Guan Yu when I was a child. ”
Sunny blinked and thought about it, and suddenly said strangely: "Yes, how did I remember Guan Yu, I really forgot it......"
"Have you read the books of the Three Kingdoms?" Jessica asked.
"No......" Sunny frowned and shook his head, adding, "It's weird, how did I know he was here?" ”
Seeing Sunny scratching his ears in confusion, Xiao Yuan shook his head and smiled, "When I was in Beijing, I went to the Guandi Temple with my classmates...... It's probably Guandi Temple, oh, by the way, and when he was riding a horse and taking pictures, Lao Cui also wore Guan Yu's clothes, and by the way, he also saw it when he played arcade games with a group of Chinese classmates! ”
Sunny grinned and looked at Xiao Yuan, and said in his heart that you have seen people so many times that you can still remember wrong, but this also reminded Sunny: "I remember, when Phoebe helped me practice how to fall, we watched a lot of Jackie Chan videos, many of which were people from the program team worshipping Guan Yu, by the way, that's it." ”
"That's right......" Jessica replied boredly.
Sunny didn't feel any discomfort from Jessica's response, and at the same time, she noticed that Taeyeon was screaming excitedly in the other side of the field, instead of the frightened shouting before, and Tiffany and so-young were also standing and clapping, so she pointed in that direction and said, "Huh? Taeyeon seems to have succeeded. ”
"Really?" Xiao Yuan suddenly jumped up and ran over there.
Seeing Xiao Yuan move so quickly, Jessica shook her head and smiled as she got up: "I'm really convinced of this kind of guy with unlimited energy......"
"It's okay, Xiaoyuan just loves to play, and I like my temper very much." Sunny first responded to Jessica, and then shouted to the three people who were playing in the squash court, "Hey~ you three!" Taeyeon's side seems to have succeeded! ”
After Xu Xian in the squash court heard this, he first looked at Yu Li, who was panting, and then said to Ebri, who was playing with everyone, in English that was not very proficient: "Ebry, they called us." ”
Ebriy also heard Sunny's words just now, but he kept pretending not to understand Korean, so he didn't react directly, in fact, he was already ready for the next shot mistake, and after hearing Seo Hyun's words, he stopped his movements and said in English: "What? ”
Yu Li was too focused just now to hear Sunny's words at all, but she still heard Xu Xian's words, and in line with the principle that it is easiest for natives to understand foreign languages and natives are the easiest to understand, Yu Li understood at once, and after dodging the ball that Ebrey didn't hit, he first raised his racket and shouted in celebration, then first looked at Xu Xian in a good mood, and then looked at Sunny outside the court, and saw that Sunny and Jessica were waving to them, so he also said in English that he was not very proficient in: "It may be something, We passed. ”
Ebrey thought it was funny, although these girls from Girls' Generation couldn't speak English well, they still had a good spirit of trying, so he smiled: "Okay." ”
Eventually, the rest of the squash court in the neighborhood fell silent, except for Barbara Taeyeon.
When everyone got closer, they noticed that Taeyeon was holding the long pole and spinning in circles, and shouted excitedly, "How is it! What do you think!? ”
Most of the people applauded her, but Barbara didn't move, taking off her sunglasses, she looked seriously at the computer screen that captured and reassembled the picture, and then the corners of her mouth gradually smiled.
When Ebrey came over, he didn't go to Taeyeon's side with the others, but walked up behind Barbara and looked at the motion-captured footage seriously, and then he asked in a low voice in French, "How is it?" ”
Barbara glanced back at the French pronunciation, then continued to focus on the simple images of motion capture, and said in French: "As with most skills training, people with no sports experience learn new skills much faster and have more skills than those with sports experience." ”
Ebrey suddenly smiled bitterly and said: "Can you stop fooling me like this, you also know that those people in the Pentagon are nervous, trying to find new technologies that may be useful from each of Phoebe's actions, but you can't blame me for this." ”
"Okay......" Barbara nodded, looked back at the bitter Ebre, and then smiled: "Don't worry, I will give you complete information, but you are neither a scientist nor an engineer, so it is impossible to write a highly professional report, which should have no effect on you, right?" ”
Ebrey nodded, shrugged his shoulders again, then picked up a clean towel from the table in front of Barbara, replaced it with a smiling face, and walked over to the Girls' Generation crowd while wiping his sweat......
