Ping Pong Life

Chapter 177 The Real Beginning

The person concerned left, but the contestants who were eavesdropping around were very happy. They thought they would hear each other's probing and guarding against each other before the battle, but unexpectedly the two contestants were so honest, they actually beat themselves to death. All the flaws have been explained?
They feel that the 18-year-old children are really sincere...

So the players started to record like crazy.

"Lin Zijun is afraid of chopping the ball, so he can't beat Zhu Shixian, he said it himself."

"Lin Zijun is not good at dealing with long forehand shots."

"Lin Zijun is afraid of heavy gunners."

"Lin Zijun is afraid of left-handed generals."

"Wang Chao isn't fast enough."

"Wang Chao is afraid that the two sides will be transferred."

"Wang Chao's backhand is weak, and he is especially afraid of long backhand shots from the bottom line."

"Playing Wang Chao can't compete with short balls inside the table."

"Write it down, write it all down, this is the most precious first-hand information, the weakness of the two contestants who blew themselves up!"

"Hahaha, two innocent children, do you really think that we can't understand Chinese? There is no cover up when we speak."

"Although we can't understand, we can record it!"

"Besides, who said that we don't know a little Chinese? Don't forget, if you want to go to Huaguo to play table tennis, you still need to learn a little bit of Chinese."

"Young people are young people, no matter how sophisticated they are on the court, but when it comes to social experience, it is really far behind, and there is no vigilance at all."

"What? Liar? How could it be a lie! I heard it with my own ears. They swore in the name of their mother. If they lie, their legs will be broken!"

"Wang Chao, Lin Zijun, you are finished!"

……

At 10:30 the next morning, at the training base of the Huaping National Team, the TV was turned on, and several big bosses were sitting upright. It was a rare thing today that they neither played cards nor drank tea. Everyone gathered together to watch the game seriously, with even serious expressions on their faces. .

Because this game is very unusual.

In the short term, Lin Zijun is the only outsider left in the semi-finals. If Wang Chao eliminates Lin Zijun, Huaping will win the championship and runner-up of this competition, exceeding the quota and completing the pre-match expected tasks ahead of schedule.

From a long-term point of view, these two people have already faintly stood at the pinnacle of the new generation of young players in the table tennis world, and both of them are rare intelligent players with unlimited super high ceilings, so it is very likely that they will be in the next ten years. , both of them will be fateful opponents.

After Sun Tianlong and Luo Jiu retired, whether Wang Chao can steadily suppress Lin Zijun and achieve Huaping's continued dominance is very important.

On the TV screen, Wang Chao and Lin Zijun entered the arena, the camera fell on Wang Chao's face, Wang Chao yawned big, and was caught on camera.

The audience roared with laughter.

The camera then turned to Lin Zijun naturally, but Lin Zijun yawned like he was infected by Wang Chao.

For a while, the audience burst into laughter.

"Friends of the audience, friends of the audience, hello, it is 10:30 a.m. in the imperial capital, this is the China Television Five Sports Channel, and I am the commentator Yi Jing."

The two official commentators are also in place. Although Yi Jing's habitual thinking is divergent, he is a former doubles world champion after all, and he still has eyesight. Seeing the two yawns, he immediately explained: "Don't get me wrong, the athletes are here Yawning at such a time does not mean that they are not serious about the game, on the contrary, it shows that they paid enough attention to today's game, so they must have studied the video last night and stayed up late."

"Huh? You ask me why I know, because I was like this when I was a player. I think back then, oh, that was seven years ago. I went to Germany to play the World Table Tennis Championships with xxx. The conditions were that Difficult wow..."

Seeing that Yi Jing began to diverge again, Grasshopper immediately brought the topic back: "Okay, the game has started now, the players from both sides guessed the coin, and the referee tossed the coin... Wow, good luck, now it is our country's Wang Chao who takes the coin." When it comes to the right to serve, Wang Chao has always been known for his versatile serve, how he will serve the first ball, we will wait and see."

Wang Chao served the ball, directly stealing long, the ball was extremely fast, and it hit the bottom line of the forehand position on Lin Zijun's side of the table.

Lin Zijun moved super fast, and in an instant he stepped back and turned sideways, slamming hard.

Wang Chao was prepared, and Lin Zijun was really thin, so the power of this explosive charge was not too great, so Wang Chao moved ahead of time and blocked the ball.

Lin Zijun moved quickly again, came to the right side of the ball, and directly twisted it with a backhand inside the table.

This twist was fast and tricky, the ball almost brushed against the net, Wang Chao didn't dare to pull or hit it, so he could only continue to block, but the ball turned more than expected, so he made a block Below, directly take the high.

The ball has actually reached Lin Zijun's forehand position, but Lin Zijun did not choose to continue the forehand, but moved to the right again, waited for the ball to fall, and twisted with a backhand, unexpectedly twisting a super high-quality change-line ball.

This time screwed Wang Chao to death.

1: 0.

Lin Zijun's backhand twist is recognized by the world table tennis circles as his strongest technique. It is indeed well-deserved. It is impeccable in both speed and angle. After Wang Chao failed to steal the ball, he has already fallen into a passive position. He wants to find opportunities through defense, but Lin Zijun's attack method is very strange, he does not use force blindly, but unconventional changes of forehand and backhand.

To put it simply, it is the ball that should be pulled forehand, but it has to be twisted backhand.

Obviously, the ball should be twisted backhand, but it has to be pulled forehand.

With the ball just now, he had at least two chances to hit a forehand, but he forcibly chose a backhand.

The difference between the forehand and the backhand is not only the different positions of the body, the different angles facing the table, but also the difference in the characteristics of the front and back rubber of the racket, as well as the inherent difference in the forehand and backhand posture, so when he chooses an unconventional When hitting the ball, the opponent needs a longer time to make a judgment.

But Lin Zijun also has the talent of extreme speed, both the speed of footsteps and the speed of shots are astonishingly fast, so even Wang Chao was confused by him at that moment, unable to judge his change of line.

Wang Chao served again. He sent a high underspin ball. The ball was very long and fell straight to the bottom line of Lin Zijun's forehand position.

Without any hesitation, Lin Zijun made another hard kick, pulling a heavy loop.

Wang Chao blocked it.

Lin Zijun moved his footsteps and twisted with his backhand.

Wang Chao barely blocked it.

Lin Zijun made a forehand burst. Although the speed of the ball was not too fast, it still pierced Wang Chao, who had already defended very hard.

2: 0.

At this moment, the audience burst into warm applause. After adjusting their mood all night, the audience of Cherry Blossom Country, who had been hit hard yesterday, saw the fierce attack and defense of two talented teenagers in the first round of entering the arena today. They expressed their gratitude satisfy.

At this time, Lin Zijun got the right to serve.

He also sent a long backspin ball, which fell straight to the bottom line on the left side of Wang Chao's table.

Wang Chao stood firmly in front of the stage, without moving a step, just flipped his wrist, and made a beautiful and light backhand twist. Although the speed was not as fast as Lin Zijun's, the angle of the ball flying over was impeccable.

Lin Zijun couldn't find a chance to use his strength, so he could only simply block the ball back.

Wang Chao switched to a forehand heavy looping ball. The ball was very low and the arc was very flat, almost sticking to the net.

Lin Zijun still couldn't find a chance to use his strength, so he could only continue to resist.

Wang Chao started his performance, pulling the ball with both forehand and backhand and changing the line. In the fifth round, he pierced Lin Zijun and recovered a point.

The score became 1:2.

Lin Zijun served again, still with a long backspin, still falling on the bottom line of Wang Chao's backhand position.

Wang Chao pulled back again.

Lin Zijun changed the way, the racket swiped under the small ball, just like a chipper's response, he directly sliced ​​a long ball that was very floating and spinning.

But Wang Chao still pulls directly, not afraid of getting backspin at all.

Another beautiful arc.

Lin Zijun cut it again.

Wang Chao pulls again.

Lin Zijun turned his forehand at a wide angle.

Wang Chao took a step forward and beat him fiercely.

Lin Zijun barely blocked it.

Wang Chao turned into a backhand and quickly tore.

Lin Zijun blocked again.

Wang Chao retreated sideways, and with [-] points of strength in the forehand, he burst into a straight line with a large angle, piercing Lin Zijun.

The score was tied at 2:2.

The two started the game very hotly, and the rhythm changed super fast, showing the super hard power of both sides. After the four balls were played, the two sides were evenly matched. The applause in the stands was thunderous, and the audience cheered excitedly. I feel deeply worthwhile.

But these four balls fall into the eyes of experts, but there are doubts everywhere.

"Obviously the safest serve should be a short backspin. How can Wang Chao steal long shots in the opening game, and still be on the bottom line with Lin Zijun's forehand position? Is it true that Lin Zijun only knows how to spin with a backhand?"

"Why does Lin Zijun serve long balls in a row at the beginning, and they are always on the bottom line of Wang Chao's backhand position. He doesn't know that Wang Chao's double-sided loop ball attacking style is in the same line as Luo Jiu's? They are of the same line, Backhand is not a weakness."

"These two... Although they fought fiercely, they didn't have any brains at all. It was completely different from their previous battles. Is this a fake match or an exhibition match?"

And among these experts, a small part probably knew what was going on.

Because they overheard the conversation between Wang Chao and Lin Zijun in the restaurant last night...

Lin Zijun said that he was not good at dealing with long forehand shots, so Wang Chao hit him forehand and lost two points.

Wang Chao said that he was not good at dealing with backhand baseline long balls, so Lin Zijun hit his backhand baseline and lost two points.

Both of them lost points on their own serving rounds, and were miserably cheated by the opponent.

So at this moment, the players watching the match looked at each other in blank dismay, feeling that their young hearts had been severely injured.

"So the key points I recorded and recited yesterday are all lies?"

Wang Chao got the right to serve again.

He raised his head and glanced at Lin Zijun who was facing him, and found that Lin Zijun was also looking at him, so they looked at each other and smiled.

Lin Zijun, who is so shy in life that he is almost socially fearful, has a completely different temperament on the court. His smile is sophisticated and meaningful.

Yes, this is a kind of sympathy between the two little foxes after they failed to calculate each other.

Of course, looking at it from another angle, neither of them was really cheated.

They just wanted to test how outrageous the information revealed by the other party was.

Wang Chao served first, so Wang Chao tried first.

After trying it, Lin Zijun immediately understood what Wang Chao meant.

Although he wants to win, he is arrogant and arrogant. Some advantages can be taken because they are strategies, but some advantages cannot be taken because they are related to character, so he has to try immediately, even if he loses points.

Four balls have been played, both sides have finished trying, and each scored two points. This is a warm-up and everyone is happy. Next, the real thing is going to happen.

The 11-point system has been changed to a 9-point system, which is still a fair fight.

The real game officially begins now.

　It will finally be back to normal tomorrow, update at [-]:[-] am.
