2025中国杯世界花样滑冰大奖赛，朱易在短节目中带来了新节目《Stand By Me》。整套节目发挥稳定，她高质量完成了技术动作，以63.39分刷新个人短节目最高分。
谈到这套节目，朱易说，她希望新赛季能够滑一个更加积极向上的节目，编舞老师因此向她推荐了《Stand By Me》，而她自己也非常喜欢。
这首歌对她来说还有另一层特别的意义——一路走来，始终有很多人在支持她、陪伴她。
“这首歌也很有意义，因为有很多人一直支持我，站在我身边。”
从北京冬奥周期走到新的奥运周期，朱易认为自己最大的变化来自心理层面。
她坦言，上一个奥运周期自己的国际大赛经验还不够丰富，在面对重要比赛时，心理上的准备也并不充分。而经历了更多比赛和训练之后，她开始学会以更加成熟的心态面对赛场。
“和上个奥运周期相比，我最大的变化是心理上。”
对于这一次中国杯的短节目，朱易很开心自己能够把有能力完成的内容都发挥出来。相比单纯追求一个结果，她现在更希望自己能够不断向前，在一次次比赛中完成突破。
她也把这样的期待带进了第二天的自由滑：“希望在完整度上拿出甚至突破训练水平。”
自由滑比赛中，朱易在前半程的跳跃出现失误，但随后及时调整状态，坚持完成整套节目。她最终以99.27分完成自由滑，两项总分162.66分，结束了本届中国杯。
从《Stand By Me》所表达的“陪伴”，到重新谈起上一个奥运周期时的心态变化，这一次的朱易似乎更加清楚自己希望如何面对比赛——
继续往前走，也记得那些一直站在自己身边的人。

Translated from the Chinese article published by MS Sport Media.
At the 2025 Cup of China, Zhu Yi introduced her new short program to *Stand By Me*. A steady performance and strong technical execution earned her 63.39 points, a new personal best in the short program.
She had wanted something more uplifting for the new season. Her choreographer suggested *Stand By Me*, and she immediately liked it.
The song also carries a more personal meaning: throughout her journey, people have continued to support her and stay by her side.
“This song means a lot, because so many people have always supported me and stood by me.”
Looking back from this new Olympic cycle to the one leading into Beijing, Zhu believes her greatest change has been mental.
She acknowledges that, in the previous cycle, she had relatively little experience of major international competitions and was not fully prepared psychologically for those occasions. More competition and training have helped her approach the rink with a more mature perspective.
“Compared with the last Olympic cycle, the biggest change has been in my mindset.”
She was happy that, in this Cup of China short program, she could deliver what she knew she was capable of. More than chasing a single result, she now wants to keep moving forward and find breakthroughs from one competition to the next.
That ambition carried into her hopes for the following day: “I hope the free skate will be as complete as it is in training—or even better.”
In the free skate, mistakes on the early jumps interrupted her momentum. She regrouped and kept going, finishing the program with 99.27 points and a competition total of 162.66.
From the companionship expressed in *Stand By Me* to her reflections on the previous Olympic cycle, Zhu seems clearer about how she wants to meet the demands of competition:
Keep moving forward, while remembering the people who have always stood beside her.
