Answer the question first. What is Hanyu's status in the Japanese ice world? Very high. In fact, not to mention Japan, Hanyu is the first person in the world to have no controversy in singles skating. This is an objective situation that does not depend on the will of any person or organization. Let's talk about what was mentioned in the subject statement. As for the factions in Japanese skating, they are similar to those in other sports, mainly because the athletes are relatively closed groups and interest***similars consisting of the same or related birthplaces, places of training, teachers, and successors, and are in fact relatively loosely organized. The so-called Nagoya and Kansai schools can also be seen in their names, which are based primarily on the athlete's place of birth and training rather than a true top-down organization. Although the athletes themselves had celebrities like Takahashi, most of them did not have deep backgrounds. Athletes belong to a faction, which is naturally determined by those who were born and trained in the sport, and no one says that they "join" a faction. The Japanese sports system is generally socialized rather than institutionalized, but due to the importance of the skaters and the strong commercial nature of Japanese skaters, the staff of the groups involved are closer, but it is a bit of a witch-hunt compared to the provincial teams in a system like ours. Wizard. The Japan Ice Federation and these factions also have a theoretical game relationship, and athletes are not specifically suppressed for not belonging to a particular faction. The main problem athletes without factions face is that they are isolated and don't easily win over resources. But as long as the athletes themselves are strong, the development process will naturally be noticed by those with resources. There are rumors that Tamakatsu and the Japan Ice Association do not have a close relationship. This may be largely due to the fact that Narita Airport initially saw and supported Yu Sheng after he was expelled from the Japan Ice Association after losing an internal battle. I don't know much about the specifics of Narita Airport, but I still feel like a very powerful person. After leaving the Japan Ice Association, she supported several returning athletes. The results were good. Later, she saw Yusei, who was then being trained by an unknown coach at a public **** rink, because she had a vision and a treasure. However, her relationship with Yusheng was not necessarily a good one. Some media outlets refer to her as a "benefactor" and a "bole". After all, interests come first and cooperation is paramount. As for the other athletes mentioned in the thread." Takahashi is obsessed with fans of Kuro Tamasen, "I don't know where to start. Takahashi certainly doesn't like Tamasori very much, and that's human nature. After all, he was a definite Japanese brother to Tamasori before him. They were very different ages. How can we imagine Tamakatsu taking over Takahashi so quickly? But fan behavior is not something that athletes can "indulge" or "control", let alone individual Takahashi fans who are used to "indulging" in their behavior, even if Takahashi himself feels that the fans' behavior is inappropriate. Even if Takahashi himself feels that the behavior of the fans is inappropriate, he cannot control the whole body from his own standpoint. Even if Takahashi felt that the fans' behavior was inappropriate, he could not control the whole body from his own standpoint. The athletes themselves cannot do anything about fan disputes. To be honest, Takahashi's experience really shows how helpless athletes are under the pressure of the Ice Federation. The head of the Ice Association, Saint Son Hashimoto, said that he supported Takahashi. As a result, he was drunk enough to force a kiss in a public ****ing setting. Such bad behavior, by virtue of being a male who was sexually harassed (and more allegedly homophobically) by a woman, was let off lightly, and even Hashimoto's offer to take responsibility and resign was retained. And, after all, Abe was once favored by women, and the Ice Federation didn't go any further because she was already the one "paying the price". Takahashi is the one being harassed. So not only does he have to defend what the other side calls "adult games" in front of the media, but he also has to escape the scandal when he retires in a hurry. It follows that it is better for athletes to keep a distance from the powers that be. Natural resources are tilted when held, but it does relate to this, it is just giving up.
