Ping Pong Life

Chapter 15 Trial Training
Jiangcheng table tennis training base.

As soon as Jiang Shan went back, he found Tian Ye: "Brother, let's fight."

Tian Ye smiled and said, "Why is your face so ugly? Do you want to come back and vent your anger on me, the second child of ten thousand years, after you have suffered outside? Get out, I will not be your punching bag."

Jiang Shan didn't explain, just said: "Brother, please, play a game with me, three out of five rounds will do."

Tian Ye carefully looked at his face, and made sure he was not joking, then nodded and said: "Okay."

Fifteen minutes passed quickly, and Tianye won by a big score of 15:3.

"What's the matter with you? You're out of your mind."

Tian Ye leaned in front of Jiang Shan and observed carefully: "Just now I made a mistake in that serve, why didn't you dare to twist it, but took a step back instead? What are you afraid of?"

Jiang Shan sighed.

"Also, why do you keep attacking my backhand for the ball in the second game? Don't you know that my backhand is better than my forehand?"

Jiang Shan moved his lips, but remained silent.

"What happened? If you don't tell me, I'll go to the coach."

The relationship between Tianye and Jiangshan is good. After all, there is a clear gap in level between the two. Stability is first and second, and there is no direct competition. So he doesn't want to see his little brother become what he is now.

"No, I'm fine." Jiang Shan took his arm, stayed for a while, and sighed again: "Brother, let me tell you, I've encountered a pervert, and now I doubt whether I can play table tennis... ..."

……

"Tuk tuk." There was a knock on the door.

It was six o'clock in the evening, and Wang Chao and Wang Mei were sitting on the sofa watching TV.

Since Wang Chao became an apprentice, Wang Mei's pressure has been reduced by half, and she doesn't wash the dishes at night. She can sit and have dinner with her son, which is quite enjoyable.

It's just that their family has never had any relatives, so it seems a bit abrupt for someone to knock on the door at this point.

Wang Chao bounced off the old sofa with a "whoosh" and said, "I'll open the door!"

Naturally, the three coaches, Tian Qi, Li Zhenguo, and Zhao Fuqiang, came to visit.

The simplicity of the house made the three of them a little surprised, and even showed a very short-term shock, which was well restrained, but the three of them looked at Wang Chaoshi again, and their emotions became a little complicated.

They naturally complained to Wang Chao, because this high school student made the three of them lose face in front of the head coach, and the fine was second.

But is this young man's family so poor?

Wang Chao politely invited people in, gave up the sofa politely, made three cups of tea and placed them on the surface of the slightly cracked tea table, and then sat down beside him and asked, "Do you have anything to do?"

Such a move also surprised the three of them.

You know, a few days ago in the Mingyue Pavilion, they could be regarded as forming a bond with each other.

Although it was the players who were provoking, the coach's refusal to stop him was considered a form of acquiescence.

According to the three coaches' understanding of today's young people, they should all be young and vigorous, fearless, so before they came, they were actually mentally prepared to be put on face.

In order to avoid the scene being too stiff, they bought some gifts from the roadside supermarket and brought them here.

But nothing happened.

On the contrary, when they expressed their intention to come, Wang Chao also showed a proper surprise.

On the contrary, Wang Mei couldn't believe it. Facing the smiling faces of the three coaches, she frowned slightly, and her eyes flicked back and forth on the faces of Wang Chao and the three of them. After a long time, she said suspiciously: "Son, they... are your coaches. Was it paid for?"

Wang Chao was speechless.

He understands his mother's suspicion. After all, he has somehow become a table tennis master, even defeated a professional player, and now a city team coach has come to invite him to try out. This kind of thing sounds unreliable.

It's more like a farce that I didn't want to learn to cut hair.

Fortunately, the three coaches still have the ability to handle things. They directly showed their ID cards and work cards to prove their identities. In the end, Tian Qi achieved the final result with only one sentence.

He said: "Mother Wang Chao, playing table tennis is still very promising. Even if you are a substitute, you will get a basic subsidy of 5000 yuan a month. If you can be promoted to the first team, or improve your level, you can play table tennis. In the professional league, even if the annual salary is hundreds of thousands, it is not a problem."

At that moment, Wang Mei was a little stunned. Although she acted calmly, Wang Chao could clearly see the twinkle in her eyes.

"Besides, tomorrow is just a trial training. It's another matter if you can be selected." Li Zhenguo continued.

Wang Mei smiled reservedly: "It doesn't matter if you choose or not. As parents, the most important thing for us is to support our children's hobbies."

Then the two parties got up and said goodbye politely. Wang Chao was sent to the door. Before leaving, the three of them smiled at Wang Chao.

When the door closed, Wang Mei's pretended composure suddenly collapsed, and she couldn't wait to call Teacher Tony to ask for leave for her son.

……

At 07:30 the next morning, Wang Chao walked into the Jiangcheng table tennis training base.

The training base is very large. The substitute players and the main players are actually training in the same venue, but this place is divided into two areas. The substitute and main players usually do not disturb each other and do not invade each other.

"Are you here?"

Nearly [-] years old, Wang Bin is in good health and has no pretensions. He was helping to clean up the balls rolling around in the arena. When he saw Wang Chao coming in, he took the initiative to say hello, "Are you ready?"

Wang Chao nodded.

"Then come directly, physical test first, and then actual combat."

The first one to run was the switchback run test.

For the sport of table tennis, turning back and forth is far more important than long-distance running or short-distance sprinting, because players have to face all kinds of tricks from the opponent when playing, from left to right, from near to far, no one can last forever. Judgment is correct, when you judge wrong, you must turn quickly and turn back quickly.

This is why the screeching sound of players' shoes rubbing against the floor can always be heard during table tennis matches.

"Run from here to there, and then back again, a total of ten back and forth, you agree, we will start timing."

Wang Chao was not in a hurry, he stepped aside and began to shake his ankles, press his legs, and move his body.

A strangeness flashed across Wang Bin's eyes.

Athletes should exercise their bodies before exercising a lot. This is a common sense that professional players know, but in the amateur world, few people pay attention to it. The reason is that amateur players do not have such a large amount of activity when playing, and it is not enough to damage the muscles and bones. the point.

But Wang Bin deliberately didn't say it, in fact, he had a bit of a bad taste.

It's not that I want to see Wang Chao ugly, but I always have a heart for Wang Chao's sentence "Who says an amateur can't beat a professional".

He cherishes Wang Chao, a good seedling, but always wants to see him make an embarrassment. If Wang Chao is embarrassed, he will pretend to be surprised and say: "This is common sense that professional players know, don't you know?"

Then it couldn't be more perfect!

It's a pity that Wang Chao didn't give him a chance.

The rest of the process was lackluster. Wang Chao's physical strength was not good, and his performance in the switchback run was naturally poor, but he barely passed the passing line. After running all three tests, he was sweating profusely, panting, and was already in a state of exhaustion. It looks like it's dying.
