Today, at the men's singles free skating competition at the Beijing Winter Olympics, in addition to the wonderful performances of the athletes, the commentary of CCTV commentator Chen Ying also followed the circle. [News review: Wang Meng relied on the roaring commentary on the hot search, but Chen Ying's commentary is more worthy of the gods]
Chen Ying is a host and commentator on CCTV Sports Channel. His specialty includes figure skating and rhythmic gymnastics. She has traveled overseas to explain the Figure Skating and Gymnastics World Championships.
Chen Ying is an English major, the first time involved in sports channels, a variety of professional vocabulary makes her a headache, because gymnastics, figure skating each project has a different set of professional terms, light gymnastics project has nearly two thousand technical moves, not to mention there are different rules and different scoring standards.
With a strong spirit of not accepting defeat, she holds a dictionary and a professional book to study every day, and the referee code is always in her hands. Gradually, her level of commentary clearly surpassed that of others, becoming the perfect candidate for the interpretation of international events such as CCTV gymnastics and figure skating.
Chen Ying once told reporters that as a female commentator, her voice has advantages, her speed of speech is also fast, and her personal style has been recognized by many people; on the other hand, gender itself has also brought her some trouble - the explanation needs to be calm at all times, but the woman itself is emotional, so to complete a commentary, she needs to spend more effort than the male commentary to control herself and adjust her thinking.
Chen Ying's explanation is full of controversy, some people say that she has a beautiful language and a high level of education, but some people think that she is obsessed with flattery and says beautiful things.
In Chen Ying's view, "It is not easy to be a commentator, and it is even more difficult to be a female commentator." ”
She said that in the commentary of sports competitions, if there is no problem, no one will remember how much desk work the commentator has done for this; once there is a mistake due to some unexpected situation, the spearhead will be pointed at the commentator. There are two types of sports female hosts, one is the anchor who reads according to the script, and the other is the commentator of the whole talk show. Most female hostesses want to appear in front of the stage in bright clothes to read the manuscript, rather than engaging in commentators who are both brain-consuming and easy to scold, and most of them are behind the scenes. But Chen Ying did not want to be a vase, and used talent and diligence to do the work of commentators to the extreme.
In the women's single skating competition at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, her commentary on Japan's Makoto Asada became famous.
As one of the players with the highest demand for the championship, Asada Masayoshi lost the standard in the short program competition, falling to 16th place, and perfectly redeemed himself with the highest difficulty in the free skating. After the last action, Asada Mamao shed tears, which moved all the audience.
Chen Ying said passionately and slightly choked: "The goal of life can be achieved by sticking to faith, not giving in." On the road to the pursuit of high difficulty, Asada Masayoshi has never given up! Although this road is destined to be very difficult and lonely, God will not fail to live up to your diligence and persistence! ”
This inspirational commentary caused great repercussions in Japan through the Internet, and Japanese ice fans even said that Chen Ying's explanation was better than Japan's NHK. Japan's Asahi Television recorded Chen Ying's touching and inspirational commentary and conducted an exclusive interview with Chen Ying.
