Ping Pong Life

Chapter 118 Unexpected Calls
Everyone ate a lot of delicious and cheap seafood barbecues, squid shells and the like on the street. Because the city is near the sea, the freshly fished seafood from the sea is fresh enough. It doesn’t need heavy spicy oil, just simply grill it, and then brush it with a A layer of hot sauce, or a layer of garlic, is enough to eat fresh and refreshing.

This night was a rare relaxation, and it also allowed the three team members who came to Bincheng City for the first time to experience the mountains and rivers in different regions of China.

From the second day onwards, everyone entered the arduous closed-door hell special training.

The match against Poseidon two days later will be the most difficult battle for Spade Q this season.

In the outside world, a large number of media made their attitude clear early, thinking that this is a "battle with no chance of winning" for Spade Q.

Even if Spade Q had just defeated Bingcheng Pharmaceutical, it couldn't change the direction of this trend.

This morning, Wang Chao was finally able to continue playing with Geng Shuai.

Although it was just a discussion within the team, everyone knew that this round was not easy. This was a certain milestone that Wang Chao had been challenging for the past two months, and it also represented the ownership of a certain title in the team.

On the last morning in Chuncheng City, Wang Chao and Geng Shuai scored at 17:15, losing because of diarrhea.

Since then, Geng Shuai never fought against Wang Chao again.

So at this time, the other players and Fan Xiaoxian stood on the sidelines, waiting to see if today was the critical time.

Ten minutes later, the first game was over. Geng Shuai sat on the bench by the table, with a sweat towel on his shoulders, feeling a little frustrated.

He lost.

Two full months after beating Wang Chao, he finally lost the game 9:11 on the first morning in Binhai City.

This also means that he, one of the former six little dragons, no longer has any advantage in front of his younger brother Wang Chao.

He is the god of the opening game, but he can no longer beat Wang Chao in the first game, which he claims to be invincible.

"Will Wang Chao be able to defeat Zhu Ding now?"

Fan Xiaoxian was quite pleasantly surprised, and asked: "Zhu Ding couldn't beat you in the first round, now that Wang Chao broke your first round, does that mean he has officially surpassed Zhu Ding?"

Lu Jia made it more clear: "Does that mean we have a chance to fight Seagod?"

"Are you kidding me!" Geng Shuai sneered, "You don't think Zhu Ding really can't beat me in the first round, do you?"

Fan Xiaoxian frowned and said, "Isn't it?"

Geng Shuai shook his head: "Of course not."

"But...you have been fighting each other for six years, and he has never won your first game."

Fan Xiaoxian rolled his eyes, suddenly felt that Watson had discovered his blind spot, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, everyone, don't ask any more questions, Geng Shuai is in a bad mood today, please forgive him, come and practice. "

But Geng Shuai was not happy: "Why, Sister Xian, we have known each other for so many years, do you think I seem to be a stubborn person? I said that Zhu Ding can beat me, not because I am awkward, but because Zhu Ding can really beat me. pass me."

Everyone saw that he didn't look like he was joking, so they became serious and asked, "What's the matter?"

The situation is actually not complicated.

At the beginning, Geng Shuai and Zhu Ding were the same six little dragons, and they lived in the same dormitory in the national team, but the relationship between the two has never been good.

The reason is that at that time Geng Shuai was born with a violent temper, and Zhu Ding was like a bully since he was a child. When the two collided together, they were like dry wood and fire, and it was difficult to think of nothing.

So just two days after joining the national team, the two had a quick fight. Geng Shuai beat Zhu Ding's nose until his nose bleeds, and Zhu Ding punched Geng Shuai until one of Geng Shuai's eyes was black and black. Three days is good.

Later, the two went to the ITTF World Tour Danish Open together. Although Geng Shuai suffered a crushing defeat in front of Christian Hart, Zhu Ding was also disgraceful: he was eliminated by Luo Jiu first, and Luo Jiu was then defeated by Geng Shuai Elimination, counting, Zhu Ding is two levels lower than Geng Shuai.

Then the plot took a turn for the worse, Geng Shuai was returned to the provincial team, Zhu Ding left the national team voluntarily, the two went around, and after a lot of trouble, they both entered the table tennis team.

Up to this time, the two still can't talk about any friendship. At best, they are teammates who have been teammates for a while, and they have such an old friend.

Zhu Ding seems to be domineering, but in fact he also has a gentle side. He knows how hard Geng Shuai has been hit and how difficult it is for Geng Shuai to continue playing. Therefore, in order to maintain Geng Shuai's status in the table tennis On the card, since the first time he met Geng Shuai, he has been merciful.

"Because of this old friend's affection, Zhu Ding has been saving face for me in the past six years, and never won my first game."

Geng Shuai sighed softly: "Do you think I'm really that strong? After five full years of playing badly, I can casually beat him? No, I'm not what I was back then. My current strength is, at best, only It’s only [-]% of what it was in its heyday.”

He paused, and said with a wry smile: "As for Zhu Ding, he has strong self-control, he trains hard every day without interruption. Not bad, he has been hailed as the number one coach of table tennis for many years. If I am not mistaken, the current Zhu Ding should still retain at least [-]% of the strength he had in his heyday."

He glanced at Wang Chao: "Although you beat me, you only won two goals... With your current strength, when you meet Zhu Ding, in my opinion, it's probably a [-]-[-] split, and you are four to six."

These words were like pouring cold water on them, causing the enthusiastic Spades Q to suddenly fall silent.

After the silence, everyone continued to practice hard, and the little pride that had just raised their heads was blown away.

This morning, Wang Chao and Geng Shuai each found an opponent to practice, and in the afternoon, the two began to practice against each other.

Wang Chao needs Geng Shuai to put great pressure on him, because he heard that Zhu Ding's attack power is better than Geng Shuai.

Geng Shuai also needs Wang Chao to put pressure on him, because he is working hard to exercise his mental strength, trying to keep his attention focused for a longer period of time under high pressure.

Geng Shuai knew that he could not beat Zhu Ding in the first match, but he still wanted to score points two days later, so he pinned all his hopes on his second appearance.

He wants to break the spell of his power failure!
……

At noon the next day, the Sea God Club did something very arrogant.

Their head coach Wang Shou was interviewed by the sports channel of the local radio station in Bincheng City. The reporter originally wanted Wang Shou to say some bold words before the game, such as "We will definitely win" and "We will definitely win the first round of the big round." and so on.

But Wang Shou directly announced the list and order of the next round of competition.

In the first scene, a single Zhu Ding.

In the second round, the second single Zhao Lian.

The third game, Zhao Lian & Ma Angxing.

In the fourth game, three singles Ma Angxing.

In the fifth match, Zhu Ding was singled out.

"The list is here. To be honest, I can't change it if I want to, because Zhu Ding is a special grade, Zhao Li'an is a first-level, and Ma Angxing is a second-level. The only thing that can be changed is the last two games. Peach Q Club is actually very similar."

Coach Wang Shou faced the camera and talked eloquently. He looked calm, but under the calmness, he showed absolute confidence and domineering: "We all discussed it, and there is nothing to change. Anyway, Zhu Ding put It's the last match, Spade Q, if anyone wants to touch him, please refer to our play list and make adjustments yourself, thank you."

These words were very forceful and full of gunpowder, and they almost called Wang Chao's name directly.

As we all know, Geng Shuai cannot beat Zhu Ding.

And during this time, with the q of spades rising all the way, the most discussed question in the outside world is "Who is better, Zhu Ding or Wang Chao".

Although 80.00% of the people are optimistic about Zhu Ding, there are actually many people who are optimistic about Wang Chao. The most important thing is that among those who are optimistic about Wang Chao, many people are very important.

For example, Da Ma, the most popular table tennis anchor on the Yinqiu Flying website, has directly released bold words during the live broadcast more than once, and wants to witness the journey of the boy who shaved his head and slaughtered the gods.

In the past two months, Huaping coach He Jingping, who has been entangled in public opinion, also mentioned the situation in the domestic table tennis team in a special interview with CTV a few days ago. He believes that Wang Chao has a great possibility of defeating Zhu tripod.

In addition, Jiang Tiansheng, the head coach of the Hubei Provincial Team, and Li Changzheng, the head coach of the Shonan Provincial Team, also said in public that Wang Chao may create miracles.

This made coach Wang Shou suffocate, feeling a little unhappy.

"Jiang Tiansheng wants to support the genius in his own province, I can understand, but why does that old bastard Li Changzheng jump out? It's because Zhu Dingzhen of my family hasn't done anything for a long time, so that you all forget the horror of the big devil?"

Naturally, Wang Shou didn't know that the real intention of Li Changzheng's words was not Wang Chao, but Hu Buming.

The old man is paving the way for Hu Buming, a talented young man in Shonan Province. He first lifted Wang Chao to the same height as Zhu Ding, and then let Hu Buming destroy Wang Chao in the second round of the big cycle, so that he can Stepping on Wang Chao's position, he established Hu Buming's title of "the strongest rookie of the season".

And if Hu Buming loses...

Wouldn't it be embarrassing to lose to a man who was as famous as Zhu Ding?

So, look, who is not an old fox who can sit in the position of head coach of the provincial team?

……

"Wang Chao, your phone number."

At around three o'clock that afternoon, Wang Chao was practicing with Geng Shuai, but Fan Xiaoxian mysteriously came over and handed Wang Chao his mobile phone.

Wang Chao wondered, "Who is it? Why did the call come to you?"

Fan Xiaoxian didn't answer, but his face was slightly flushed, and he scolded: "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and pick it up... After you pick it up, put it on the table over there, I'll get it later."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left in a hurry. Before Wang Chao could say anything more, she had already disappeared outside the gate.

Wang Chao was at a loss.

Who on earth can make the generous and generous sister Xian become like this?
She just answered the phone by herself, but she still wants to avoid it?
Could it be Lao Qin who is a Virgo again?

He didn't know the reason until the phone was connected.

"Hey, little brother, is that you?"

A clear and pleasant voice came from the other end of the phone: "It's a pleasure to talk to you. It's the first time we meet. Let me introduce myself. I am your senior brother and your senior in the club. I am Luo Jiu."

　Alright, Luo Jiu, my personal favorite, is here. The next chapter will start to create a character. I hope you like him too.
