Ping Pong Life

Chapter 440 Wang Chao's Scheme

Wang Chao served with short backspin.

Luo Jiu directly drew the bottom line.

Wang Chao stepped back and directly pulled the arc with his forehand.

Luo Jiu is pulling.

Wang Chao moved sideways and pulled diagonally.

Luo Jiu moved sideways, pulled the ball to change its line, and drew a straight line close to the edge of the table.

Wang Chao moved sideways again, retreating half a step backhand and backhanded forward to loop the ball.

Luo Jiu moved sideways, turned the forehand into a slice, and sent the ball to Wang Chao's backhand, which was close to the table at a wide angle.

Wang Chao took half a step forward, picking and fighting inside the stage.

Luo Jiu's backhand bounced directly into the court, hitting the ball back in the rising stage.

Wang Chao reacted quickly and pushed the ball past.

Luo Jiu switched the forehand to a fast belt inside the table, and changed the line extremely abruptly, sending the ball to Wang Chao's forehand at a wide angle on the bottom line of the table unreasonably.

Wang Chao moved sideways, but he didn't have time to reach the right position, so he stabbed his arm out, an exquisite side cut, unexpectedly cut a change-of-line ball that flew along the edge of the table, and landed on Luo Jiu's backhand at the bottom line of the table at a wide angle.

Luo Jiu moved quickly to the left, and in a hurry, the rubber on the back of the racket was not enough to pull the ball up, so he made a very strange move. He went back and landed near the center of the table.

Wang Chao chose to return to the short swing.

Luo Jiu chooses to fight short.

Wang Chao poses again.

Luo Jiu poses again.

Wang Chao continued to pose.

Luo Jiu also continued to pose.

The ball was played for more than ten rounds in one breath. The two sides showed dazzling skills. They exchanged offense and defense many times. Said very confused.

It's not that they don't like watching it, after all, this purely technical fighting style is really pleasing to the eye.

They just need a person to literacy, but the official commentary arranged by the ITTF is two former professional table tennis players from Hungary. They are professional commentators in name, but their professional level is not enough to understand Huaping. The various details contained in the duel of the top players.

Foreigners have an advantage, even if they don't understand, they will never stand in the cold.

So the two commentators were talking nonsense, and the audience was confused, but when they wanted to analyze it by themselves, they found that the confusion turned into confusion.

"After the ball hits the highest level, can it still be played in an infinite loop?" A certain spectator was asking another spectator beside him at this time.

"I don't know, but since Huaping plays like this, it should probably be like this." Another spectator said.

A mathematician pretending to be an audience asked, "Is this a Möbius ring?"

A patriotic Russian audience said: "This is a nesting doll."

A paying user of a certain video network in Huaguo said deeply, "No, this is "The Beginning."

……

He Jingping and Sun Tianlong, two sensible people, looked at each other in blank dismay.

They could naturally see that Wang Chao and Luo Jiu were looking for a chance to "rest".

Yes, they are resting.

It is not the body that needs rest, but the mind.

The eight balls played just now were too brain-intensive, and I couldn’t bear it. Now they all played the basic skills by coincidence. Although it seems that the skills are unpredictable, as if they have used all their skills, but in fact it is all routines, all of which they practiced. It is something in the "Double-sided Loop Ball All-Taiwan No Dead Angle Offensive System".

Just like when you play chess, you can walk with your eyes closed in the first few steps, which is a fixed situation.

Of course, if you insist on analyzing, you will also find that their responses to each round are perfectly in line with the table tennis theory, and they are the best conventional responses to the current situation on the spot.

It's just that for Wang Chao and Luo Jiu, this kind of response does not need to really think about it, but to rely on instinct and familiarity with the road.

Then, something magical happened.

If it is any other two players, because their technical and tactical systems are different, there will be a gap in this basic skill confrontation quickly, forming a clear relationship between victory and defeat.

But Wang Chao and Luo Jiu cultivated exactly the same things.

However, their techniques are equally superb.

They also have two racquets that also put a heavy emphasis on friction and control.

Although the rubber on the back of the racket is different, this difference is nothing more than a certain difference in the attributes of the hit balls. However, they have unparalleled adaptability, and they have already adapted to the opponent's racket in the first eight balls. Attributes.

Therefore, this is a true sense of evenly matched and evenly matched forces.

The ball was played 27 rounds, which is actually not too many, because there have been more rounds played before.

In the end, Luo Jiu found an extremely small opportunity, and a full-strength burst broke through Wang Chao's defense line, rewriting the score to 5:4, and regaining a slight advantage.

The contestants on both sides expressed emotional stability, because this kind of basic skill duel is full of chance, and it is normal for anyone to win. The main comparison is the proficiency of skills and tactics, the continuous stability of the state, and a little bit of luck.

Wang Chao served again, still with a short backspin, followed by a high-intensity technical confrontation that dazzled the audience. After another long 25 rebounds, Luo Jiu scored again, and the score became 4:6.

Both players are still emotionally stable.

So continue.

Luo Jiu got the right to serve, but he stopped attacking the serve, and also chose short backspin.

In fact, after getting rid of those desperate brain-burning styles at the beginning, Luo Jiu was not worried about being attacked by Wang Chao in a purely routine duel.

Because in the normal mode, it is actually very difficult for Wang Chao to use this little advantage to turn it into a victory, so in the end, it will still become a duel of pure state stability and hard power basic skills.

Luo Jiu thinks that he is actually slightly better than Wang Chao in this respect.

The reason is that he scored two points in a row just now.

He was willing to continue this rhythm, just to avoid Wang Chao's sudden change of tactics. He was still cautiously guarding against it and did not dare to relax.

比分忽然以一种奇异的节奏开始攀升，从4：6到4：7，然后到4：8，接着到4：9，又到4：10。

At the beginning of the game, Wang Chao, who played extremely nimblely, suddenly seemed to have become rigid. He and Luo Jiu hit six identical balls in a row, and four of these six balls were even his serving rounds, but he was all the same. Choose a short backspin.

He didn't change his tactics, and just used pure basic skills to fight Luo Jiu until the current score.

Fortunately, the audience did not realize this.

Because from the perspective of the scene, the two sides played very elegantly and smartly, as if they were racking their brains to seek innovation and change. The audience didn't know that this was all a routine in the tactical system, because they had never seen such a huge and complicated game. Therefore, in the eyes of the audience, Wang Chao seemed to be trying his best to break through, but no matter how he tried, he always missed the game and lost to Luo Jiu at the last minute.

Therefore, apart from cheering and applauding, the audience also sighed and shouted a lot. It was Wang Chao's fans who were cheering him on and feeling sorry for his failure.

The audience didn't know that their emotions were actually mispaid...

They thought that Wang Chao, who was struggling and losing points again and again, must be desperate and frustrated, while Luo Jiu, who was always scoring, was full of confidence as he fought more and more courageously, but it was really not the case...

Or rather, the other way around.

Wang Chao has always been calm, but Luo Jiu's mood fluctuates a little.

"He really wants to win." Sun Tianlong said softly.

He Jingping was startled, and asked, "Who are you talking about?"

Sun Tianlong was also startled, thought for a while, and suddenly realized something, couldn't help laughing: "I originally wanted to talk about Wang Chao, but now I find that I am one-sided."

He Jingping nodded, then sighed, a little helpless: "Both of them really want to win, but there is only one gold medal..."

They didn't notice that, in fact, the ordinary fans in all directions of them were listening quietly, trying to understand the details of the game from the conversation between the two big shots, but when they heard it now, they couldn't On the contrary, he became more and more confused, and felt that the two big brothers were simply riddlers, talking in a cloud of fog.

Sun Tianlong and He Jingping are naturally not riddlers, they just really understand the situation in front of them.

The score in this game was played precisely because both sides wanted to win too much.

Luo Jiu wanted to win because he put in more energy than outsiders imagined in the six goals scored in a row.

Although the two sides are playing regular ball, he has been scoring, so he will continue to get more and more frustrated. He is afraid of Wang Chao's counterattack, and waits for Wang Chao to take the initiative to change his moves at any time. It is called "only a thousand days to be a thief, how can a thousand days to guard against a thief", so he really worked hard to defend against it.

Every point he scored was a sunk cost he paid. When the score was much ahead, he couldn't accept the game being reversed, so he worked harder to prevent it.

Although the six balls were played, Wang Chao behaved very well and did not make any mistakes.

Although Luo Jiu wouldn't go wrong even if he didn't take strict precautions, Luo Jiu's inner defense never let up.

Now the score is 4:10, the audience who didn't understand thought that Wang Chao was under great pressure, but in fact, Luo Jiu was the one who was really under pressure, because he was worried about gains and losses, and was afraid that Wang Chao would come back from a desperate situation and complete a big comeback.

Don't think this is alarmist talk, you must know that Wang Chao's technical stability is obvious, as long as Wang Chao can suddenly catch a flaw in Luo Jiu, and chase after it fiercely, it is entirely possible to make a perfect defense against Luo Jiu Break this point first.

Luo Jiu can't guarantee that he has no flaws, and he can't be sure that Wang Chao has no hidden tricks.

So in this round, Luo Jiu put in a lot of energy in the second half.

But Luo Jiu didn't realize that he had been calculated.

Wang Chao actually didn't care about winning or losing this game.

He was tricked by Luo Jiu at the beginning, and he was consuming his brain power continuously, but he couldn't think of a way to consume Luo Jiu's brain power in turn, so he opened up another track, and he wanted to count Luo Jiu's energy.

The so-called energy, to be precise, can also be called attention, concentration, and focus.

If you still don’t understand, you can think about Geng Shuai. Geng Shuai’s poor performance for many years, excessive smoking and drinking, and psychological barriers lead to serious lack of concentration. He can only play one game during the game, and the second game will not Severe loss of energy, inability to concentrate, resulting in an inability to win.

Luo Jiu is 27 years old this year, and his concentration is not as good as when he was young. Wang Chao stimulated Luo Jiu by giving points, making Luo Jiu more and more focused and paying more and more attention. Unknowingly, he consumes a lot of energy, and when he reacts later and gets out of this highly focused state, he will feel extremely tired and unsustainable.

In this process, Wang Chao is really resting.

But can you say that Wang Chao doesn't care about winning or losing just because Wang Chao deliberately lost this game?

On the contrary, this just shows how much Wang Chao cares about winning or losing.

Last year, Wang Chao played unscrupulously. There were many unscrupulous schemes, such as Lin Zijun. In fact, Wang Chao felt sorry for him.

But after being reminded by He Jingping, Wang Chao understood the heart of a king, and since then he rarely played that kind of overly calculating ball, but always worked hard to win with dignity.

But this time he started to plot against Luo Jiu.

Don't say that Luo Jiu calculated first. You must know that Luo Jiu's calculations came from his pre-match preparations. The two goals he scored in the end were actually a gamble. place.

But Wang Chao's calculations carried a little bit of insidiousness.

Because he was actually calculating Luo Jiu's age.

The 18-year-old young man has a strong enough concentration, even if the ball is tense every game, it doesn't matter, but the 27-year-old "old man" has lost energy and must make a choice in the game.

Luo Jiu calculated Wang Chao's brain power because the difference in brain power is not big no matter whether he is 18 or 27 years old. This is a calculation under the premise of fairness.

When Wang Chao calculated Luo Jiu, he made it clear that he wanted to take advantage of his age.

As an aside, Wang Chao's victory over Sun Tianlong in March was actually due to injuries, but because Sun Tianlong took the initiative to send him to the door for a fight, the others had nothing to say.But if Wang Chao took advantage of Sun Tianlong's injury to take the initiative to ask for a fight, there would be a lot of gossip.

Well, that's probably what it means.

If it was Wang Chao who beat outsiders, He Jingping and Sun Tianlong would not have any associations in this regard, but Luo Jiu is Wang Chao's senior brother and has always been very friendly to him, so even if there is a little bit of wrongness in Wang Chao's calculations, It will also arouse the doubts of many sensitive people.

However, Sun Tianlong and He Jingping happened to be pure enough people, so they couldn't help sighing when they saw this game.

It doesn't mean to criticize Wang Chao harshly, but I can really see the obsession of the players on both sides for this victory.

The score of the first game was not easily fixed at 4:11.

Because after 4:10, Wang Chao scored two consecutive points before being terminated by Luo Jiu.

The audience only felt that the last three goals were of little significance and belonged to Wang Chao's desperate struggle, because 4:10 seemed impossible to turn over anyway.

Only Sun Tianlong and He Jingping could see that the last three goals had a great impact.

Because this meant that Luo Jiu's mentality finally fluctuated after he got the game point. This fluctuation affected his competitive state and technical stability, causing him to lose two points in a row in his serve round.

This is already a fatal omission.

"This won't work." Sun Tianlong said in a low voice: "Actually, during a game, the best state should be to want to win but not afraid of losing. The more you don't care about the outcome, the easier it is to perform perfectly and win the final victory." .”

This is his experience.

The reason why Sun Tianlong can achieve today's achievements is actually because he was invincible after he was invincible. He won the Grand Slam early and won all the gold medals he could get. Then he became very casual. He participated in the competition He wants to win, but he is not afraid of losing. When he meets a strong opponent, he wants to win, but he will not feel pressured because the opponent's performance is good enough. Instead, he sincerely admires the opponent's outstanding performance. This kind of mentality makes him invincible Invincible, and even many situations that must be lost have been abruptly reversed.

It was precisely because of his deep understanding that he knew that Luo Jiu's current state was very dangerous.

"He can't help it." He Jingping sighed softly: "Compared to Wang Chao's situation, it is much more relaxed. Xiao Jiu really can't afford to lose, and he can't afford to wait. You know the situation of Huaping now. There is no way, he must win, this year is probably his last chance in this life... But the more he wants to win, the more prone to mood swings, he is a human being, not a clay sculpture, how can he really be as calm as water?"

Sun Tianlong was speechless.

The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh, and no matter who he shows his tendency towards at this time, it is probably not what He Jingping wants to hear, so a thousand words are not as good as a silence.
