Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
The next day, Chen Yihan and Katniss were taken away by Hemis and Effie respectively for an eight-hour special training. (Please search, or enter directly to see the latest chapter).
The content of the special training is etiquette and interview skills for four hours each.
After that, Chen Yihan and Katniss put on the clothes that Sina had customized for them, and it could be seen that their team had put a lot of effort into it.
The design for Chen Yihan is a black suit with a flame pattern, which looks very handsome.
And for Katniss was a pearlescent red dress. The dress is studded with sparkling gemstones, red, yellow, and white, and the gems are set in a flame pattern.
The slightest movement of Katniss's body gives the impression of being surrounded by raging flames.
Black Miss and Effie also dressed up for the occasion, and Chen Yihan and Katniss entered the elevator under the guidance of the two of them.
After the elevator opened, everyone came to a hall and waited in line to get on the stage.
In the course of this interview, each "tribute" will sit on a curved bench at the back of the stage.
Chen Yihan and Katnis, sat at the end.
Chen Yihan squinted at the performances of other "tributes": smart, funny, humble, fierce or charismatic.
It can be said that this is the same as the rating, it must attract the attention of the audience in order to be considered successful.
Hemis came behind Chen Yihan and Katniss and instructed, "Remember, you are still a happy couple, just like this." ”
Although it was night, the city ring square was as bright as day.
There is a row of raised chairs on the stage for VIPs, and the front row is for designer seats.
When the audience is critical of their work, the camera lens is aimed at them.
The large terrace on the building on the right is reserved for the organizers of the competition, while the other balconies are filled with cameras.
The city square and the surrounding roads were full of spectators, and everyone had to stand. Whether in a home or in a public lobby, the TV is turned on. The entire country of Panham is empty.
At this time, Caesar Frickman, who has been the host of this show for more than 40 years, stepped onto the stage in high spirits.
His image has hardly changed in more than forty years, which is really a little scary, the same face, the same type.
His face was covered with snow-white powder, and his head had been dyed in different colors in previous competitions, even in a dress.
The dark blue gown was dotted with thousands of small light bulbs, twinkling like stars in the night sky.
At Kepitt, people use guò plastic surgery to make themselves look younger and slimmer.
But in other districts, the vicissitudes of the face are an achievement, because many have gone before him.
If you see an old man, you can congratulate them and ask them for the secret of longevity, and even the fat man is jealous because he doesn't have to run around for three meals a day like everyone else.
But it's different here.
Having wrinkles is not good, and pooping with a big belly is not a sign of success either.
This year, Caesar's head is sprinkled with blue makeup powder, and his eyelashes and lips are also blue, which looks strange but not scary.
Last year, he was painted crimson as if he was bleeding.
Caesar tells some jokes to set the mood, and then gets to the point.
The female contestant in Zone 1, wearing a long golden sheer dress with a sultry surname, walked to the center of the stage to be interviewed by Caesar.
It can be seen that her instructor effortlessly found the landing point of her appearance, her flowing gold, emerald eyes, tall and well-proportioned figure, from head to toe, exuding a sense of surname.
Each player is interviewed for only three minutes, and then the buzzer ticks and the next player takes the field.
In all fairness, Caesars did his best to get each player to show off their strengths. He is amiable, tries to eliminate the nervousness of the contestants, speaks a little sarcastically, and even if the answer is not satisfactory, he can make a deep impression on the interviewee in a way that makes a difference.
In the way Effie and Hermes had taught them, Chen Yihan and Katniss sat there like a gentleman and a lady.
The contestants in the second, third and fourth districts all ended their interviews, and everyone seemed to have found their own perspective.
The male contestants in the second district are like a savage killing machine, and the girl from the fifth district has a fox face and looks cunning and difficult to fight.
Then there are districts 8, 9, and 10......
Chen Yihan watched the interviews of each of them carefully, quickly recalled them in his mind, and thought about matching them with the characters in the movie.
Until the Eleventh District, little Lulu appeared.
Little Lulu came to Caesar in a long cobweb-like dress with two wings on her body.
When the audience saw such an incredibly slender player, there was silence.
Caesar smiled and praised her for her small size but her outstanding score of 7.
When asked what her biggest advantage in the arena was, she replied without hesitation: "It's hard for me to catch." Her voice trembled slightly, "If they can't find me, they won't be able to kill me, so don't try to eliminate me." ”
"I won't weed you out, not for 10,000 years." Caesar encouraged her.
Chen Yihan's eyes narrowed even more.
In the movie, there is no special expression of how powerful Xiao Lulu's concealment is.
But it's also true, "The Hunger Games 1", due to the problem of the movie's time, many issues have not been clarified, even if it is an eye-catching fighting game, it seems a bit anticlimactic.
So this is the first time that Chen Yihan can't clearly familiarize himself with the characters according to the movie, which is not a good sign.
After little Lulu goes down, it is the turn of the boy from District 11 to appear, his name is Salish, and he has the same dark skin as Lulu, but their similarities are only that.
Sarish is tall, about 1.8 meters tall, and as strong as a calf, but I have now refused the request of the pros to join him.
On the contrary, he was a loner, did not speak to anyone, and did not dare to take an interest in training. Even so, he took 10 points, and it is not difficult to see that he impressed the organizers of the tournament. He ignored Caesar's ridicule and replied only yes or no, or else silence.
Chen Yihan has a good impression of this Salish, because he indirectly saved Katnis in the plot of the movie and let her go once.
If it is ranked by force, it should be ranked second.
He, in the early stage, can he also fight for it?
While Chen Yihan was still thinking, someone called out Katnisyi. The name of Ferdin.
Chen Yihan saw Katniss stand up like in a dream, walked to the center of the stage, and shook Caesar's hand.
Chen Yihan didn't think about anything else, but looked intently at the big screen and watched Katniss's interview.
"Well, Katniss, Capitol must be very different from District Twelve. What impressed you the most when you arrived? Caesar asked.
……
Katnis, with a dull expression, just looked desperately around, and finally stared at Sina.
Caesar has been presiding over many years, and he has his own set of ways to deal with this aspect.
Seeing that Katniss was nervous, he then asked a more popular and easy-to-answer question: "What impressed you the most since you arrived here?" ”
"Lamb stew." Katniss finally spoke.
Caesar laughed, and some of the audience also laughed, including Chen Yihan.
"The kind stewed with dried plums?" Caesar asked.
Katniss nodded dumbly.
"Oh, I eat with a bucket." Caesar turned to face the audience, clutching his stomach and making a horrible expression, "I can't see it from here, can I see it?" The audience shouted, saying they couldn't see it, and then there was a round of applause.
Chen Yihan didn't see anything humorous about this, but the audience seemed to be very fond of Caesar's set.
"Now, Katniss," Caesar continued, "my heart stopped beating when you appeared at the opening ceremony. What do you think of the costume? ”
"You mean after I was worried about being burned alive?" Katniss asked.
The audience burst into laughter, this time from the bottom of their hearts.
"Yes, let's start there." Caesar said.
"I think Sina is amazing, it's the best dress I've ever seen, and when I put it on, I couldn't believe my eyes, like the one I'm wearing right now." Katniss pulled up her dress and spread it out, "Well, you see, the clothes I'm wearing today have flames on them, too. ”
The audience made "hmm" and "ah" sounds.
Chen Yihan saw that Sina motioned to Katniss and made a slight circle with his hand, which obviously meant to let Katniss turn in a circle.
Chen Yihan didn't know either, Katniss seemed to have a special trust in Sina, and after seeing Sina's signal, she immediately spun around.
"Oh, one more spin!" Caesar said.
Katniss raised her arms and spun around and around, her skirt fluttering with her turning, and she too was surrounded by flames.
The audience cheered enthusiastically.
After a few turns, Katniss stopped, grabbing Caesar's arm.
"Don't stop!" Caesar said excitedly.
"I can't do it, I'm dizzy!" Katniss giggled, too, with a hearty laugh she'd never had before.
Caesar wrapped his arms around Katnis, as if protecting her: "Don't worry, I've got you, your instructor has stumbled, and I won't let you follow in his footsteps." ”
The camera camera immediately focused on Black Mith, and everyone was watching him.
Hames, who is already known for being headlong in the audience at the harvest ceremony, gently waved to the camera reporters, motioned for them to stop filming him, and then pointed at Katniss.
"It's okay." Caesar told the audience, "She's safe with me." So, how about the training sessions. 8 points, which is also a high score, reveal to us some secrets during training? ”
Katniss glanced at the tournament organizers on the terrace, bit her lip, and said, "Hmm...... All I can say is that this is only the first time. ”
The camera is focused on the organizers, who also nod their heads and laugh as they eat.
"Look, you're always talking and stopping, do you want our lives?" Caesar said, pretending to be in real pain. "Details, details."
"I can't say that, I'll let my opponent know." Katniss said with a smile.
"Alright then, let's revisit the moment your sister's name was shouted at the harvest festival." Caesar said that his affection had been stabilized, "You volunteered to take part in the hunt game in her place, can you tell us about her?" ”
Chen Yihan saw that when Katniss heard this, a trace of pain flashed on his face, which was by no means his imagination.
"Her name is Prim, she's only twelve years old, and I love her more than a qiē."
At this time, the circular square was silent, and even a pin could be heard.
"What did she say to you after the ceremony?" Caesar asked.
"She wants me to do everything I can to win the game."
The atmosphere in the audience was solemn, and every word Katniss said echoed in the air.
"How do you answer?" Caesar asked softly.
At this moment, Katniss felt a cold spread through her body, her body stiffened, her muscles tensed, and she seemed to be ready for a fight. Her voice seemed to have dropped an octave as well: "I swear, I will!" ”
"I'm sure you can do it." Caesar said, and then hugged Katniss tightly.
The buzzer went off.
"I'm sorry, we're up in time. Good luck, Katnisyi. Vdin, the 'tribute' from the 12th arrondissement"
After Katniss sat down, the applause continued. She looked at Sina, hoping for his affirmation, and Katniss gave her a slight thumbs up.
"Next, please our son of fire, Chen Yihan!!"
Chen Yihan is a person who has seen big scenes, and he knows that it is enough to act according to the plot, so as soon as he came on stage, he took the lead and ridiculed Caesar.
"Tell me, do I still smell of roses?" Chen Yihan looked at Caesar and asked.
Then Chen Yihan and Caesar sniffed each other, which won bursts of laughter from the audience.
"Do you have a girlfriend in your hometown?" After Caesar and Chen Yihan teased each other a few words, they once again seized the right to speak.
Chen Yihan didn't answer, just shook his head paradoxically.
"There must be a girl who is different, a beautiful girl who can match you. Come on, come on, what's her name? Caesar continued.
Chen Yihan sighed and swept around the audience.
It's like a stupid boy looking for his lover: "Hey, there is a girl who I can't remember since I fell in love with her." But I'm sure she didn't know there was such a big living person as me until the harvest festival. ”
The audience made a sympathetic voice, it was unrequited love.
"Does she love someone else?" Caesar asked.
"I don't know, but a lot of boys like her." Chen Yihan lowered his head and said.
"So, so be it, you win the game, and when you get home, there's no reason for her to turn you down, huh?" Caesar cheered him up and said.
"I don't think that's going to happen. Won...... It didn't work."
"Why?" Caesar said, confused.
Chen Yihan's face turned red, and he said hesitantly: "Because...... Because...... She came here with me. ”
