Ping Pong Life

Chapter 213 I don't like it

Wang Chao walked past the billiard table to see Gao Mingyuan.

Gao Mingyuan ranked fourth among the six dragons. He was nicknamed Fenglong. He was 20 years old this year. According to the information, he was "suspected to have extreme speed talent."

After 23 minutes, Gao Mingyuan easily won 4:0.

There was not much suspense in this game, because the strength gap between the two sides was large, but Wang Chao still saw Gao Mingyuan's strength from this game.

His quickness is different from that of Lin Zijun. Lin Zijun's quickness is due to his fast footwork, quick twisting of the ball, and small range of motion.

And Gao Mingyuan's shots were fast-paced.

The reason why there is the word "suspect" on the information is precisely because Gao Mingyuan's pace is not fast.

He has the most typical characteristics of the new generation of players. He does not retreat all the time, pulls with his forehand and twists with his backhand. His strength is relatively average, but because he does not emphasize rotation, the ball is very fast.

And his biggest feature is that his placement is very tricky, and almost every ball can't wait to hit the dead corner directly.

He is a player who is extremely pursuing placement and rhythm.

But after Wang Chao watched it for half an hour, he also discovered his obvious flaws.

There are big problems with his forehand pull and bursting posture.

Others have to sink their shoulders when pulling the ball, but his shoulders are raised.

When the shoulders are placed, the strength cannot be released, and it is very easy to hit the ball too high. In addition, he is not a strong player, so his forehand attack is really very powerful, and the suicide rate is very high. It is really not as good as Do not attack.

But his backhand twist is quite strong, and similar to Lin Zijun, he takes the tricky route and super fast ball speed.

Wang Chao didn't watch it anymore, because he felt that Gao Mingyuan's threat was very small.

The forehand burst is too important for a player, which is basically the most basic kill of all professional players by default, and because of Gao Mingyuan's forehand posture, the strongest kill is basically useless.

But this thing is still very difficult to change, because it is a habitual movement developed since childhood, and has even been integrated into the entire technical and tactical system. If you want to change it, you have to change it from the beginning, which is really painful.

Wang Chao came to Ma Angxing's table.

He glanced at the scoreboard, and was a little surprised, because at this time Ma Angxing had lost three games in a row, and was also behind 0:3 in the fourth game, and was on the verge of being eliminated.

And the player opposite him is the youngest of the three selected players from Hubei Province this year, named Zeng Guanghao.

Ma Angxing still looks very calm, which is due to his personality, but from the perspective of the ball, he has been completely blown up, and he has not found the slightest chance to come back.

There was nothing wrong with his performance today. The level he showed was similar to when he played in the Table Tennis League. He was cautious and stable. He basically focused on defense and did not show his flaws. On the other hand, Zeng Guanghao, who was facing him, played freely and freely. , quite a stretch.

Wang Chao only saw three balls before he found himself seeing a real genius again.

Zeng Guanghao is only 15 years old this year, the same age as Lu Feiyang and Fan Xiaodong. His style of play is not rigorous, and there are rough places in the connection. It can be seen that he has not really formed his own technical and tactical system, but has a rough prototype. .

But the reason why Wang Chao thinks he is a genius is because he played too relaxedly.

It can be said that even the veterans of the first team of many countries cannot reach such a relaxed state during the game.

This kind of relaxation is not slack, nor is it not hard enough. On the contrary, he worked very hard and galloped all over the field. His relaxation is mainly reflected in the word "dare".

Facing a ball that is difficult to handle, he does not seek stability and dares to directly improve the quality.

Facing a disadvantageous situation, he did not defend, and dared to forcibly counter-pull.

Facing the impeccable defense of the opponent, dare to forcibly lift the board.

It can be seen that he is really not afraid of making mistakes at all, and he is not afraid of losing, which is quite rare.

And he's in excellent physical condition.

This made Wang Chao feel that children nowadays are more nutritious than each crop. This is true for Lu Feiyang, Fan Xiaodong, and Zeng Guanghao. They are all physical monsters who can shoot heavy artillery when they are underage.

Ma Angxing was more depressed.

He is actually a player who controls the ball, and he has a pretty good foundation and delicate touch, so he can control the opponent to death when facing most players, but Zeng Guanghao's strength slightly exceeds his control ability.

It would be easy to solve if it was just a problem of strength, but the real terrible thing is that Zeng Guanghao is not afraid of losing. He has an unstingy temperament, which makes his ball play wildly and unconstrainedly, which is often beyond Ma Angxing's expectations.

Sometimes Ma Angxing felt that the opponent would definitely not be able to take the lead, but the opponent just did.

Sometimes Ma Angxing felt that the other party should deal with it routinely, but the other party just had a whim and made an unconventional treatment.

When the score of the fourth game became 2:7, Wang Chao wanted to turn back to watch Fan Xiaodong's next game.

Because he felt that the overall situation was settled and there was nothing to see.

But this time something unexpected happened.

Zeng Guanghao started beating like a sudden power outage.

He first forcibly pulled a short ball in the table with strong backspin, but he committed suicide by pulling the ball.

Then he tried to serve a relatively rare back-spin bottom line long ball, which seemed to be trying to steal, but Ma Angxing saw it with his eagle eyes, and he turned sideways in advance and slammed the ball to death.

Then Zeng Guanghao seemed unconvinced, and sent a reverse-spin bottom line long ball exactly as before, but was killed by Ma Angxing again.

Wang Chao couldn't move anymore.

He looked down quietly.

At this time the score was 5:7, and Zeng Guanghao still had the advantage.

It was Maang Xing's turn to serve.

Ma Angxing served two very standard backspin balls, and Zeng Guanghao chose to attack directly in the face of these two balls.

His first challenge failed.

The second ball Ma Ang Xing kept an eye out and deliberately sent it to his backhand position, so he stepped forward and twisted it backhand.

But Ma Angxing can't do anything else, only this short backspin serve has been practiced superbly. After all, this is the key to ball control.

Zeng Guanghao couldn't even hit the ball with a forehand, so how could he pass it with a backhand?

The situation changed so quickly that it was staggering. In just one minute, Zeng Guanghao was directly chased by five goals and became a 1:7 tie.

Wang Chao frowned slightly, feeling something was wrong.

Then it was Zeng Guanghao's turn to serve.

Zeng Guanghao switched to a high toss and turned to attack with a forehand. This time he played beautifully and charged forward with a blast. Although Ma Angxing blocked the ball back, he obviously lost his initiative and was retreating sharply.

This is a classic situation in table tennis games. When one side retreats from the table and the ball goes high, the attacker is almost sure to win, because if you retreat from the table, he will hang short, and if you do not retreat, he will dunk hard Kill, you can only choose one, but he has two hands to prepare.

If Zeng Guanghao was a little smarter at this time, he should have just thrown a short ball, but he seemed to be on the head, and he rushed hard again.

Ma Angxing has already retreated five steps, and tried to pull the ball back. In this situation, with his not strong strength, he can no longer play against the far table. He just needs to be able to hit the ball on the stage.

But Zeng Guanghao seemed to be in a daze, rushing forward board after board, trying his best on each board. They all hit Ma Angxing's right hand side, so Ma Angxing didn't even need to move his feet to pull the ball back.

This corresponds to a saying, called just not long.

Zeng Guanghao rushed five consecutive boards, and every board was full of strength. By the sixth board, his strength could not keep up, and his feet were already floating. He failed to attack directly and hit the ball out of the table.

It was obviously a good situation, but Ma Angxing scored a point.

By this time, Wang Chao already had a vague guess in his mind.

Another minute and a half later, the game ended, but it was Ma Angxing who pulled back the game at 11:8, and the total score became 3:1.

When the two sides had a short break, Wang Lu came over directly and began to give instructions to Ma Angxing in a low voice. He caught a glimpse of Wang Chao watching the game, and he nodded and smiled at Wang Chao as a greeting.

This is also allowed by the rules, because Ma Angxing was originally favored by Wang Lu in advance, and this is an internal assessment, not an international competition, so in principle, off-site guidance is allowed.

On the other side, Zeng Guanghao was sitting on a chair drinking water alone, when a coach of the national team came over, sat down beside him, and started talking to him.

Wang Chao looked on coldly, and he could see clearly that Zeng Guanghao was surprised at first, which meant that he didn't know the coach.

In other words, this coach became interested in Zeng Guanghao after watching the game, so he took the initiative to talk to him. If the two sides negotiate smoothly, then Zeng Guanghao will be able to enter one of the seven places that must join the team regardless of whether he wins or loses. middle.

This is of course a great thing.

Considering that Zeng Guanghao was selected as a player from Hubei Province, Wang Chao was also happy for Hubei Province team head coach Jiang Tiansheng. After all, he had just secretly poached Wuli, the fresh peach waiting to be picked, from Jiang Tiansheng.

It's just that the communication between the coach and Zeng Guanghao didn't seem to be smooth. Wang Chao only saw Zeng Guanghao shaking his head, as if he didn't accept the coach's opinion. Then the coach patted him on the shoulder, stood up peacefully, and stopped talking. .

Then, the game continues.

Seventeen minutes later, Zeng Guanghao lost three games in a row and finally lost the game 7:3.

After the game, Ma Angxing was very excited, his face was flushed, obviously, he was full of a sense of accomplishment for being able to turn the game around in such a desperate situation.

Wang Lu didn't come to talk to Ma Angxing when he won the game, but gave him a positive look from a distance.

This belongs to Wang Lu's personal cultivation. Although he is on Ma Angxing's side, Ma Angxing has won every victory. If he comes to congratulate him now, it will embarrass the loser too much, and it may even lead to isolation, Shady negative emotions.

But Wang Chao looked at Zeng Guanghao's expression from a distance, but found that this 15-year-old boy didn't mean to be sad at all, but seemed a little relaxed.

At this time, the coach went up to talk to Zeng Guanghao again, but he didn't say a few words, Zeng Guanghao shook his head again.

The coach was a little anxious, as if scolding a few words, but because the distance was relatively far, and the hall was too noisy, so Wang Chao didn't know the specific content.

Zeng Guanghao still shook his head, so the coach sighed and turned to leave.

Zeng Guanghao packed his racket, picked up a sweat towel, and was about to leave the field, but Wang Chao stepped forward and blocked his way.

"You don't want to join the national team?" Wang Chao asked him.

Zeng Guanghao was dumbfounded.

"I can see that you are letting the water go. You know you can't win this game, otherwise you won't be able to walk away, so after winning three games, you force yourself to let the water go, right?"

Wang Chao smiled and said, "You don't have to deny it quickly, because I'm not a spy sent by the coaching staff. I'm just curious...you play so well, why don't you want to continue playing?"

Zeng Guanghao remained silent.

Wang Chao didn't take it seriously.

It's normal for a 15-year-old boy to be stubborn. I think that in my previous life, when I was 15 years old, I was a rebellious youth. , In fact, it is already very obedient.

Zeng Guanghao finally answered, he said sullenly: "You misunderstood, I actually didn't play that well."

Wang Chao nodded: "I understand."

Speaking of this, Wang Chao also found it funny: "If you usually want to win, you will have a psychological burden when you fight. You are too young and have little experience in competitions, so even if you have good basic skills, it is still difficult to get results. But you don't want to win today, so you are extra relaxed when you play, you can play as you want, not as a game, but as entertainment, unknowingly, you fit the best mentality during the game, and played the best you didn't expect. Good effect."
