Ping Pong Life

Chapter 293 Master and Apprentice
Qin Huachang's entry into Liancheng is comparable to Han Gaozu's entry into Hongmen, and it requires a lot of courage.

But he can't help it, because Fan Xiaodong is about to debut.

When the lover makes his debut, he must sit in the position of coaching on the sidelines.

Of course, he can also ask He Jingping for help and guidance. After all, He Jingping will also go this time, and with Sister Fan, he always thought that Fan Xiaodong was practicing with He Jingping.

But Qin Huachang is not reconciled...

For Fan Xiaodong, he ran to Liancheng more than a dozen times last year. He was beaten by a broom, bitten by a dog, and pricked with a needle (especially the rabies vaccine). He stayed with Fan Xiaodong in practice, racked his brains to help Fan Xiaodong design a tactical system, and he even kept the secrecy to the extreme. Except for Liu Shu and Zhu Ding who served as sparring partners, even Cai Guodong, the head coach, had never really seen Fan Xiaodong's training. daily.

Qin Huachang dared to touch his not-so-red conscience and said that he really tried his best.

He never cared so much about training Sun Tianlong.

Now that Fan Xiaodong is making his debut, Qin Huachang thinks that Fan Xiaodong will be an instant hit and shock the world in the first battle. If so, how can he really let He Jingping pick this big peach?

Even if he tried his best and was bitten by Ah Huang again, he still had to establish his status as master and apprentice with Fan Xiaodong in an upright manner.

But he was quick-witted, and at the critical moment, he thought of asking Wang Chao to accompany him, and took Geng Shuai away from the spade q training base by the way.

The reason is also very simple: Geng Shuai and Fan Pingnan were both one of the six dragons at the beginning, even if they don't have a deep friendship, there is always some kind of incense.

He was going to the doctor in a hurry. If he could get a helper, he would get a helper. If he could get as many life-saving straws as he could, he would get as many life-saving straws as he could. He only hoped that he could come back alive after this trip.

So on April Fool's Day, a group of four people went to Liancheng.

But after arriving, Qin Huachang was a little suspicious again. He felt that since it was April Fool's Day, the credibility of what he said was very low. What if when he confessed to Sister Fan and Sister Fan thought he was joking, what should he do?
So he dragged everyone away, even Fan Xiaodong wanted to go to the arena to see his brother but was stopped by Qin Huachang, everyone lay bored in the hotel all day, until April [-]nd, they set off for the arena together.

Everything in the arena was as usual, but when Fan Pingnan met Qin Huachang, the atmosphere between the master and the apprentice was rather subtle, one was full of guilt, and the other was full of longing.

So Wang Chao and Geng Shuai followed Fan Xiaodong to the front of the arena, played and entertained with the old regulars in the arena, which brought the atmosphere in the arena to a small climax.

After all, this is the guest combination of the world champion + the former six dragons. This level is too high. Even if you go to the largest gymnasium in Liancheng, you have to be regarded as the honored guest. In this broken arena, it can only be said that this side of the world is too small , I am afraid that I will use too much force and break the space barrier.

The small arena was dominated by regular customers, and these people knew Fan Xiaodong. Now that they heard that Fan Xiaodong was going to participate in the Swedish Open in April, everyone was very interested, and they all expressed that they would definitely watch Fan Xiaodong win glory for the country in front of the screen.

When the master and apprentice finished expressing their feelings in the room, Fan Pingnan randomly found someone to help watch the scene, and then he pushed the wheelchair and followed everyone home.

When entering the small farmyard, Qin Huachang was apprehensive, but in fact, Sister Fan was very calm. After seeing such a large group of people, she was a little surprised at first, then surprised, and then took her youngest son whom she had not seen for half a year After hugging for a long time, and then looking up and down, it was nothing more than questions like "have you lost weight", "have you lost weight", "have you eaten well".

It was not until the two parties sat down in the simple living room that Qin Huachang found a chance to confess and be lenient.

He had already prepared the draft, and at this moment, he was talking about how he devoted himself to Fan Xiaodong, how he cultivated him carefully, and how he paid attention to the combination of work and rest. He absolutely did not over-train. Said: "Coach Qin, you don't need to say it, I believe you."

Qin Huachang was stunned.

He thought this game was in hell mode, why did he pass the easy mode before he even started to use his strength?

"I already knew what you said."

Sister Fan couldn't stop talking endlessly: "When I came back from the imperial capital last year, I was worried that Xiaodong would have a bad time with you, so I specifically asked for your Coach He's phone number. Called to ask about the situation, but when I called for the first time, Coach He told me very seriously that he is not our Xiaodong's coach, you are."

Qin Huachang's mouth moved and opened slightly, but no words came out.

Sister Fan continued: "I was in a hurry at the time and wanted to go to the imperial capital again. I scolded him on the phone, which was a bit harsh... But Coach He told me that he promised that Xiaodong would not If something happened, he was willing to use his reputation as a guarantee. He also said, if I don’t believe it, I can record it now. He repeated this passage, and he also said, you are the most powerful coach in Huaping. It's better to follow him. I heard him talk about this, so I reluctantly believed it."

Sister Fan smiled when she said this. She is actually a very simple peasant woman, but perhaps the past confrontation between her and Qin Huachang was so strange that it was the first time that Qin Huachang discovered that the two had known each other for so long. Women actually laugh.

This made Qin Huachang a little flattered.

"Coach He was probably afraid that I wouldn't be at ease, so he took the initiative to tell me later that he could take the initiative to report to me about Xiaodong's situation every once in a while... But in fact, he did better than this. He not only He often calls me and sends me photos, all of which he secretly took of Xiaodong’s appearance during practice and eating.”

At this point, Sister Fan turned her head to greet Fan Pingnan: "What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and pick vegetables in the garden. Let's have lunch together."

So far, the matter has been resolved smoothly, and everyone is happy, but Qin Huachang feels a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Facts have proved that it was his villain's heart that saved the gentleman's belly.

Just like what Cai Guodong said when he comforted him: "Old He will deliberately pick your peaches? He won't even take a bite if you put the peaches to his mouth."

He thought that today's matter was bigger than the sky, but He Jingping has actually helped him solve the problem since last year.

Qin Huachang recalled that during this period of time, He Jingping was always sneaking to watch Fan Xiaodong practice. He was still full of vigilance, thinking that Lao He was helping Wang Chao spy on the military situation. Only now did he know that Lao He was just taking pictures.

Qin Huachang was very guilty and didn't know what to say, so he remained silent until he returned to the imperial capital from Liancheng.

Probably because everyone is a silver coin, although Wang Chao is not a disciple of the Qin Clan, he didn't have much scruples when talking to Qin Huachang. He secretly asked Old Qin: "You always touch your conscience, do you have a little bit of shame?"

Qin Huachang snorted: "Old He helped me, and the old man will naturally repay you. You don't need to make insinuations, just wait and see."

Then Geng Shuai returned to Jiangcheng alone, while Wang Chao followed Lao Qin to the national team training base, preparing to go to Sweden to participate in the next open.

This afternoon, Cai Guodong called a meeting with everyone. What was a little different from the previous ones was that not only the men's table tennis coaches, but also the head coach of the women's team Wang Wendong and Ge Miao, one of the head coaches, participated in the meeting.

The door of the conference room was closed, Cai Guodong said with a serious expression, "About the Olympic Games, there is a new rumor from the ITTF."

The International Table Tennis Federation is very thieves. Over the years, they have made a lot of amendments to the table tennis rules. Almost every change is not good for China Table Tennis, but they can justify almost every change. Come up with a big reason.

The cancellation of the blocking serve was actually because there was almost no solution to Huaping's popular forehand blocking serve and fast break style at the time, but they said that this was to improve the fairness of the game and reduce the chance of the game.

The reason why the diameter of the table tennis ball is larger is actually because Chinese table tennis players are good at playing fast breaks, and they can often beat European players at all. But they say that this is because the ball is too small to be caught by the naked eye, and the number of rounds is too small. , Seriously insufficient viewing.

The change of table tennis materials is also because players from foreign associations cannot adapt to the strong rotation and fast pace played by Huaping players, but they said that this is to make the game equipment more stable in terms of attributes and properties, and to avoid the gap between small balls and small balls. Technical errors caused by slight errors between.

The above are all major changes, and there are still a bunch of small changes.

The reason why Huaping has always accepted such protracted weakening changes is not only that Huaping itself is confident, but also because almost all ITTF changes have been unanimously supported by foreign associations.

Unless we don't play with them, we can only accept it.

This is the so-called "minority obeys the majority".

The basic procedure for the ITTF to do this matter is to let the wind out first, then wait for the discussion to ferment, and finally a foreign association proposes it on its own initiative, and then the ITTF accepts it as a matter of course, and consults various associations in a pretentious manner. opinions, and finally form a conclusion.

In fact, everyone here has basically heard the news this time.

"Originally, the Olympic table tennis event was scheduled for men's singles, men's doubles, women's singles and women's doubles, but this time, the ITTF has decided to add mixed doubles to the official Olympic events, and will put the gold medal at the forefront. "

Cai Guodong said: "If this matter is implemented, then our preparation plan for this year's Olympics must start from now and make major changes."

In the conference room, everyone nodded.

Huaping's goal for the Olympic Games is always "I want it all". Now that the mixed doubles is added, it means that the mixed doubles gold medal must also be included in the account.

But in the mixed doubles track, Huaping does not have any advantages compared with foreign associations.

It's not that our mixed doubles is not good. In fact, Hua Guo has won a lot of mixed doubles gold medals. For example, Yi Jing, the current famous official table tennis commentator, was the mixed doubles world champion that year.

The real problem is that we never really paid attention to mixed doubles.

In the past, Huaping’s selection of the mixed doubles quota was simple and rude. Basically, the team’s men’s and women’s table tennis kings and women’s table tennis kings made up a temporary team. After a few days of practice, relying on personal ability, they will be able to dominate each other on the court. .

If the two big demon kings have relatively difficult individual singles tasks to complete, then let the second male table tennis player and the second female table tennis player get together and practice for a few days. Basically, there is still no suspense about winning the championship.

In addition, Huaping also has some more adaptable considerations, such as finding a forehand player and a backhand player in the national first team to make a perfect match, or find two backhand players and make one for the foreign association to specialize in. Unsuitable combination.

All in all, Huaping is not picky about mixed doubles, and it is not restricted by forehand and backhand habits. After all, almost all Huaping players are all-round forehand and backhand, and there is no obvious shortcoming.

But now, if mixed doubles is going to enter the Olympics, the situation is completely different.

Regardless of whether Huaping makes preparations or not, foreign associations will definitely do their best to sprint to the track of mixed doubles.

Because Huaping is too experienced in men's singles, women's singles, men's doubles and women's doubles, they can't do it at all, and in mixed doubles, everyone is inexperienced, so the opportunity came.
