“I like Nathan Chen’s short programme this year. It’s such a modern programme to do in an Olympic year. It’s really a risk to take that sort of approach and he’s just amazing. He’s got a lovely ballet and gymnastics base, but he’s also a modern dancer. Shae-Lynn Bourne did a really good job of bringing out that side of him and then his costuming by Vera Wang was so cool and edgy.”

“He is so young and yet he skates with such maturity and we know how dedicated he is,” Chock said. “It’s something unique to see and he is one to watch.”

Thanks, sheetz. It's such a good read for Monday Blues.

It's also interesting to me that the interviewer is a Japanese journalist/writer in Europe.
 
it is a very well written article in Chinese, this is not a "scoop" sorta of article, so no new info. but it serves more as an introduction article for Vincent and Nathan to Chinese fans. The author said s/he did some research (contrary to many irresponsible, copy-paste, figure skating article in Chinese media only to attract traffic ) and the writing styling is really motivating and beautiful.
about Nathan
"提到陈巍就一定会提到在不久前的平昌冬奥会上他惊为天人的“救赎一舞”,他完美展示了什么叫做“逆袭”,什么叫做“置之死地而后生”,可是我们明白“逆袭”的背后是遗憾,是伴随着对前面状态的否定。"
whenever Nathan is mentioned, people will remember his awe-inspiring "redemption dance" at 2018 PyeongChang Olympics games. He perfectly demonstrated what is "get up", what is "nothing to lose",but we understand what it means behind "get up", it is associated with the negation and regret of previous crumbling.

"有时少年仗剑天涯,凭的不过是一腔孤勇。唯独的那一点英勇却是你最宝贵的财富,长路漫漫,少年请带着这些走下去,咫尺天涯,我们也一直都在。"

sometimes, a young man relies on nothing but naive,solitary courage. however, This bit of bravery perhaps is exact your most precious treasure. The journey ahead is still long. Young man, please carry this and march on, be it far or close, we are always here for you.
