少爷在俄罗斯给某个广播台做的访问，他用俄语回答的，一位FAN把俄语翻成英语。因为都是很简单的词句，就不翻成中文了。采访中说到了他今后的打算。全文如下：
Interviewer: Johnny, tell us, how St. Petersburg welcomed you? I heard that you fans already waited for you at the airport?
J: Yeah, I’m so happy to be here in St. Petersburg. I think it’s a very beautiful city. I’m so excitet to skate in the show with Plushenko and Lambiel, and Joubert. It’s great!
Interviewer: And what is the most common gift for you in Russia?
J: A lot of presents. Cheburashka, of course. And books by Pushkin. And flowers, of course.
Interviewer: And what is the dearest present from Russia you have?
J: It’s always Cheburashka. My fan club - weir.ru – they know I love Cheburashka, and I’m happy with it.
Interviewer: What you like the most about St.Petersburg?
J: It’s the architecture. It’s so beautiful here. There is no other city like St.Petersburg. It has a special taste. That’s what I love.
Interviewer: You already cheered your fans with the news that you will continue to skate. In one of your interviews you said that there is a possibility that you will skate for another country. Was it just a random thought, or you considering it seriously?
J: I’m seriously considering it. In America it is impossible for me to skate, because Americans do not like it when a participant loves another country, and has a Russian coach.. And I speak Russian and French. This is not for America. Maybe I’ll skate for Russia or for Australia – I don’t know. But I really want to perform in Sochi.
Interviewer: Speaking about your coach. Tell us please, with what warm words does she encourage, praise you?
J: Galina Yakovlevna always tells me: “Johnny, shto takoje?” (= Johnny, what’s up?) *laughs*
Interviewer: At the Olympics – sorry, I’m going to quote her – after the long program she told you: “Johnny, you silly boy!” Why did she tell you that?
J: I don’t even know. I think it was that spin, that didn’t go so well. I don’t know why she said that.
Interviewer: I think she was trying to say: “You see, you didn’t have faith if yourself, but you managed to do it all!” What do you think?
J: Yeah, you are right. I want to skate some more. I think I haven’t achieved my dream. I want to be a World’s Champion, an Olympics Champion. I’m going to work on that.
Interviewer: It one of the interviews Galina Zmievskaya said that it is very important for her to discipline you. Is it possible that you might be lazy sometimes? I don’t believe it.
J: It is right. I love Russia of course, but I’m American. It’s another life. And discipline is very important for figure skating. Galina Zmievskaya knows it all! And I believe in her.
Interviewer: And she believes in you!
J: Yeah, I think so. Yes.
Interviewer: One time you said you wanted to live in Russia or in Korea. Do those countries have something in common?
J: Well those are my favorite countries. But Russia is, of course, in the first place. Maybe in St. Petersburg, maybe in Moscow. I love this country so much, I love its language, its people! It’s so great for me!
Interviewer: Haven’t you thought about your own show in Russia sometime in the future?
J: I do want. I want to skate in Russia many-many-many times.
Interviewer: A person couldn’t be happy all the time. When do you feel happy?
J: When I’m at home with Mom and Dad, and when I’m in Russia, and when I’m on the ice.
Interviewer: You have very close relationship with your family, right?
J: Yeah, very close. My Mom is number one for me. I think it’s the most important thing in your life – to have good relations with your family.
Interviewer: You came to St. Petersburg alone?
J: Yes.
Interviewer: Don’t you feel lonely?
J: No, never. Never alone.
Interviewer: When you finish your figure skating career, what you want to do next? Maybe acting, since you are so good at performing at the rink?
J: I don’t know. I want to skate some more. And then – I don’t know. I think it’s very important to graduate from University. I want to go to FIT in America – it’s a special fashion school, where I can learn how to design.
Interviewer: You feel the music so great when you skate. You skate with such emotions. Is it a gift from your parents or is it only your own achievement?
J: It goes from the heart. When I was a little boy, I didn’t listen to Whitney Houston or Backstreet Boys, I listened to Chopin and Tchaikovsky.
Interviewer: You have a program “I love you, I hate you” – of course, all of the fans know it very well – there are two modes in it. The first is very serious and classical, and the second is spectacular. Is it what your character is like?
J: Yes, of course it is my character. On the ice I’m always serious, but in real life I’m very cheerful and funny.
Interviewer: What do you want to say to your fans?
J: I want to say: Thank you, St. Petersburg! I send you a lot of my love! Yeah, that’s it. |
