Ping Pong Life

Chapter 503 Iron Triangle Overwhelms Luo Jiu, Qin Huachang Discusses Wang Chao Again

This is the fourth year that Wang Chao has crossed over. Wang Chao is 21 years old. With the resumption of the Ping Pong Super League Spring Championship, Spade Q ushered in a super heavyweight player: Luo Jiu.

Nine and a half years ago, Luo Jiu, who left Spade Q for grades, finally returned.

Fan Xiaofan, Fan Xiaoxian, together with all the active players of the club, went to the door to welcome Luo Jiu in, and then Fan Xiaofan took everyone to visit the club's honor exhibition hall again, seeing the trophy that Luo Jiu led spade q to win the table tennis championship, everyone They all felt the power of the passage of time, and couldn't help but sigh.

This year, the Jiangcheng University team officially degenerated from a middle-upstream team of the table tennis super team to a bottom-level team of the table tennis super team.

The boss behind the Jiangcheng University team was furious because of this, called Fan Xiaofan and scolded him severely, and finally slapped the table and threatened: "If Lao Tzu's team is relegated in the second half of the year, you will never want to marry my daughter!"

Fan Xiaofan was very embarrassed about this, because he knew that although a large number of foreign players came during the transfer period of the Ping Ping Super League last year, they have all been digested now. big fish.

However, Jiangcheng University's current foundation is a bit too poor. Apart from losing Luo Jiu and Hu Ke, even the veteran Wang Bo has retired, and now only Duan Changying is left alone. After half a year, he chose to leave because he had no games to play.

The irony is that after leaving Jiangcheng University, Ma Angxing's strength improved by leaps and bounds in the next few months. This child from the bitterly cold place in the Northwest followed the path of accumulation and accumulation, and it happened that he completed his sublimation in those few months and officially entered After joining the Huaping National First Team, it was logical to join the Table Tennis Super Team, Imperial Capital New City, as teammates with Liang Kunpeng and Lin Zijun.

Purely looking at the current strength on paper, Imperial Capital New City is definitely a dark horse, while Jiangcheng University is a past nobleman. Unless Jiangcheng University is willing to double the price, Ma Angxing will not come back unless his brain is showing off.

How to do it?

Although Jiangcheng University and Spade Q belong to the same city derby, the relationship between the two teams is intricate. Strictly speaking, it is a bit like wearing a pair of pants. This time Spade Q poached Luo Jiu. , He chose to exchange Hou Xijia and Qiu Shang.

Hou La Liga and Qiu Shang have no doubts about this. This is because the salary offered by Jiangcheng University has increased by 30.00% on the basis of their last year. With Wang Chao Luo Jiu and three top generals, they have no chance to play. At this time, changing to another team can just be the main force.

However, relying on them alone, Jiangcheng University can be regarded as a mid-range team at best, and it is still very difficult to achieve further results.

Both of them can only serve as assistants. If Jiangcheng University wants to restore the glory of the previous year, it needs a strong general.

The problem was thrown back to Fan Xiaofan, who told him to use a beauty trick to abduct other people's generals?Who told him to want to marry someone else's daughter?

Although Luo Jiu is already Fan Xiaofan's real brother-in-law at this time, Fan Xiaofan still habitually asks Wang Chao for advice. Wang Chao said with a smile: "The fierce general happens to have one, but whether he can grab it or not depends on his ability."

The big fish that Wang Chao was talking about was Fan Xiaodong.

In fact, in the national team, Fan Xiaodong, Lu Feiyang, and Sun Wenwen are all the same age, and they are all 18 years old this year, and have the qualifications to participate in the professional league.

Of course, there is another 18-year-old boy Jiang Shan in the national team. He is more than half a year older than Fan Xiaodong, but because of his lack of reputation, he signed a contract in the second half of last year.

During the transfer period of the Ping Ping Super League in July this year, Fan Xiaodong became the biggest favorite, and his worth was slightly higher than that of Lin Zijun last year. This was because he defeated Lin Zijun head-on in the semi-finals of the year-end finals last year.

The Jiangcheng University Club tried their best to snatch people, but in the end it fell short. Fan Xiaodong chose to go to the Shonan Provincial Fruit Satellite TV Club, an unremarkable downstream team in the Ping Ping Super League, and a club with relatively little money.

Afterwards, the media interviewed him and asked him why he chose this club. Fan Xiaodong only said one reason: "Support the hometown team."

The media praised him for his love for his hometown, but they didn't know that Fan Xiaodong didn't have much affection for Shonan Province. After all, he only grew up in the one-third-acre land in Liancheng, and he had never been to Shonan Province at all. He has no idea of ​​the provincial capital Xingcheng City, and he has Mao's hometown feelings.

The reason why he chose this way was because he knew that Wang Chao chose his hometown team, and although he was crazily suppressed by Wang Chao, he had a feeling of admiration for Wang Chao deep in his heart. The subconscious choice was the same as Wang Chao made.

This is the fan's imitation of the idol, and it is also the challenger's dissatisfaction with the king. He saw Wang Chao take off with the spade q all the way, from the bottom of the table tennis to the table tennis championship. With Fruit Satellite TV Club also took off, from the downstream team to the table tennis giants.

Then the autumn competition started, and the results of the Shonan Fruit Satellite TV Club really improved. However, Fan Xiaodong was alone, and the Fruit Satellite TV team finally reached the middle and upper ranks, but failed to reach the forefront of the Ping Ping Super League. Fan Xiaodong was unexpected.

Of course, according to Sun Tianlong's theory, it is not a bad thing for young people to suffer more and suffer more setbacks.

In this year's international competitions, Wang Chao and Luo Jiu are still in a situation where Wang Chao and Luo Jiu don't see the king and share the gold medals equally. He lost twice during the year, once to Hu Ke and once to Lin Zijun.

In the match against Lin Zijun, he even took a fall under the watchful eyes of everyone, and then retired due to injury. It took him two full months to recuperate, and he gave up his original spot in the Open to Wang Chao .

In the last year before Sun Tianlong retired, he used his physical advantage to defeat Sun Tianlong, but now times have changed, and it is his turn to be defeated by others using his physical advantage.

This year's World Cup team competition was attended by Wang Chao, Fan Xiaodong, and Bai Feng. Lin Li failed to compete in the team and became a substitute, while Luo Jiu chose to forfeit the match due to injury.

When he was sitting in the slightly deserted stadium of the national team training base and watching the live broadcast with everyone, he couldn't help but think of the scene where he made a big splash in the World Cup team competition two years ago, and he was so sad for a while that he couldn't help himself Suppressed, even need to bow his head and take a deep breath, in order to calm down the urge to shed tears.

He can clearly feel that his physical function has declined significantly in the past year. At the same time, after getting married, his emotions are richer, weaker, and easier to arouse emotion than when he was young.

"Should I continue fighting?"

He watched Wang Chao on the screen beating the opponent with unrivaled power, and couldn't help but feel a deep sense of fatigue: "This year there will be the World Table Tennis Championships, and I still have the opportunity to participate, but in the junior Under my hand, do I really have the possibility to win the championship?"

"If I can't win the championship, what is the meaning of my participation in the World Table Tennis Championships? I have already won the runner-up..."

The internal situation of Huaping has changed this year, Fan Xiaodong has officially rushed above Bai Feng and Lin Li, and has become the third person in Huaping's main force, and now he is eyeing Luo Jiu, every look is full of "Tu Jiu proves the Tao" eager to try .

The 30-year-old Luo Jiu felt obviously unable to do what he wanted. After careful consideration, he made a difficult decision to give up the internal through match of the World Table Tennis Championships coming next month.

In the end, Wang Chao, Fan Xiaodong, and Lin Li won the places in the through competition.

It was another vigorous and fierce battle, which attracted the attention of countless fans. The international arena was surging. This time, Morad of Sweden and Zhang Benkuang of Sakura Country re-emerged, proving that young people do have infinite possibilities for reshaping. Zhang Ben Kuang beat Heathfield and Qiu Shang all the way, while Morad eliminated his compatriot K. Michel and England's only seed Pique. In the semi-finals, they faced Fan Xiaodong.

In the other half, Wang Chao beat Alul and Weng Chunting violently, Lin Zijun eliminated Zhu Shixian and Hu Ke, and the two reached the semi-finals together.

Subsequently, Fan Xiaodong defeated Morad 4:3, and Wang Chao defeated Lin Zijun 4:0.

In the end, Wang Chao defeated Fan Xiaodong 4:0 to win the championship and won his two consecutive World Table Tennis Championships.

This year, as Luo Jiu began to consciously abstain from various international competitions, the men's singles event in the World Series showed a strange situation that never deviated from the original pattern. In the first stage, Wang Chao, Fan Xiaodong, and Lin Zijun must reach the semi-finals, and in the end, Wang Chao must win the championship, with a score of 4:0 without exception.

Wang Chao completely became an unsolvable existence.

Lin Zijun and Fan Xiaodong became the most powerful contenders for the runner-up.

Others, who can't even hope for a bronze medal, can only make it to the quarterfinals as their ultimate goal.

This is the first time that the world table tennis world has felt such a profound darkness. This darkness was not caused by Wang Chao alone. What Wang Chao took away was only the championship, but Fan Xiaodong and Lin Zijun, as the left and right guardians, took away the rest. Runner-up and third place.

In the Dubai Open in April, Wang Chao won the championship and Fan Xiaodong was runner-up.

In the Romanian Open in May, Wang Chao won the championship and Fan Xiaodong was runner-up.

In the Swedish Open in June, Wang Chao won the championship and Lin Zijun was the runner-up.

In the Huaguo Open in July, Luo Jiu won the championship and Lin Zijun was the runner-up.

In the Huaguo Open in August, Hu Ke won the championship, Luo Jiu was the runner-up, and Fan Xiaodong was the third. (Wang Chao did not participate)
In the Singapore Open in September, Wang Chao won the championship and Fan Xiaodong was runner-up.

In the Kimchi Country Open in October, Wang Chao won the championship and Lin Zijun was the runner-up.

……

What is worth mentioning this year is that Wu Li is no longer purely Wang Chao's partner in men's doubles. He has begun to make his mark in singles. But also reached the quarter-finals in six consecutive tournaments.

Considering how dark the table tennis world is at this time, the top eight is actually quite a good result. In a sense, it is comparable to the top four results in the past years.

In November of this year, Wang Chao won the Peacock Country Open. Fan Xiaodong was beaten 4-0 again in the final. He cried after the game.

The tears he had held back for more than a year finally couldn't hold back at this moment. He couldn't hold back anymore. No matter how strong his heart was, he was completely shattered by the zero seals again and again. When the final whistle blew in the game, Tears welled up in my eyes, crying like a child who is 1.7 meters tall and weighs 160 kilograms.

Sun Tianlong was sure at this moment that Fan Xiaodong was finally pushed to the bottom by Wang Chao.

But then he was at a loss, because even though he had been on the sidelines as a coach for two full years, he still hadn't found a way to defeat Wang Chao.

The pressure is enough, it's time to bottom out, but the question is, how can I help Fan Xiaodong defeat Wang Chao?
Sun Tianlong chatted with Fan Xiaodong for a long time that night, and finally made a decision: take Fan Xiaodong to meet his mentor Qin Huachang.

He called Qin Huachang, but Qin Huachang told him: "If you want to come, bring Wang Chao with you. I want to chat with him."

Wang Chao and Fan Xiaodong gave up the Nigeria Open in December and followed Sun Tianlong to Yangcheng City, Guangdong Province to meet Qin Huachang.

This is their reunion with Qin Huachang after more than two years of absence.

In private, Qin Huachang was not as energetic as in the live broadcast, but instead looked a little sluggish, with a yellowish complexion and a bad complexion.

Sun Tianlong asked Qin Zhenyu in private, only to know that his mentor had been quite exhausted in live broadcasting for the past two years. On the surface, he was full of enthusiasm for live broadcasting and enjoyed it, but in fact, it still hurt his body.

It's just that Qin Huachang is getting older and stronger. Neither Qin Zhenyu nor his wife can persuade him. The more there are, the more masters there are, the longer and longer Qin Huachang's live broadcast will be, and the more excited moments will be during the live broadcast.

"He's dying a long time ago, and one day he's going to die in the live broadcast room." His wife said to Sun Tianlong with a bit of anger.

Sun Tianlong glanced at Wang Chao, both of them were silent.

They all love table tennis so much, so they fully understand Qin Huachang's mentality at this time.

Probably because I know that I don't have much time, I cherish the time more and more, and want to do more things in my lifetime.

He regards live streaming as his second career, from which he found the value of his own existence, and he is willing to shine without hesitating. To put it bluntly, he probably really wants to die in the live broadcast room.

This feeling is like the ancient generals who would rather return in horse leather than die on the bed.

On the same day, there was another live broadcast, which was the Nigeria Open in December that Wang Chao and Fan Xiaodong gave up. This was also the first time Nigeria hosted the Open after the rise of Alur.

Qin Huachang excitedly pulled Sun Tianlong to live broadcast together, Wang Chao chose to go shopping by himself, but of course Wang Chao had no interest in shopping, he just saw that the old Qin master and apprentice had something to say.

Sun Tianlong asked Qin Huachang how to defeat Wang Chao. Qin Huachang smiled and shook his head: "There is no solution."

"You feel that there is no solution?" Sun Tianlong was surprised.

"Since the live broadcast started, I have been observing him, but the more I watch him, the more horrified I feel. In my opinion, Wang Chao's style of play no longer belongs to the style of human beings, because human beings must have flaws, and it is impossible to be like him. Same, so stable, so comprehensive, so impeccable, he can make the most correct judgment in any situation, and many judgments, in my opinion, obviously need to go through a lot of reviews, tests and discussions before they can be correct conclusive."

Qin Huachang smiled wryly: "A person like him has never appeared before, and he will never appear in the future. He gives me the feeling that he is cheating, because generally speaking, any athlete has irreparable defects. Without city power and experience, veteran players have experience and patience, but they don't have the hard work and body of young people, but he has them all. He even has the cunning of a coach and a pure outsider thinking mode. At the same time, he has Can maintain a pure heart in many details of life."

Sun Tianlong remained silent for a long time.

In fact, he had a similar view to Qin Huachang. He felt that Wang Chao was close to a monster, but he thought it was just his lack of vision, but he didn't expect to hear exactly the same comment from the teacher.

"Then what should we do?" Sun Tianlong asked: "Could it be that Xiaodong has been suppressed by him? If Wang Chao can still maintain good health, can he suppress Xiaodong from the beginning of his career to his retirement? After all, He is only three years older than Xiaodong."

"That's not necessarily the case." Lao Qin smiled, and finally revealed a trace of the demeanor of the old fox: "If a person wins too much, he will get tired of it. Maybe he will find it boring if he wins. Did you decide to retire early?"

Sun Tianlong was stunned.

"Okay, okay, you kid, you still can't take jokes like you did back then." Qin Huachang felt a little disappointed, but he felt that it was because of this that Sun Tianlong was the one, and he said seriously: "Why do you think I want to be a joke?" Bringing Wang Chao here? I just want to solve this problem."

Sun Tianlong asked: "How to solve it?"

Qin Huachang said, "I beg him."

Sun Tianlong's eyes widened: "Please?"

"Yes." Qin Huachang nodded: "You are too embarrassed to say that, so let me come... I will beg him to show me some face as an old man, and let Xiaodong leak some soup from his fingers, so that Xiaodong can also drink water. Maintain food and clothing for a while."

He patted Sun Tianlong on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "So, you don't have to think about defeating Wang Chao in the future, but Lin Zijun, Morad, Zhang Benkuang, these three people, you must help Xiaodong Hold them down."

Sun Tianlong was the only one who listened to these words. It seemed ordinary, but it actually showed Qin Huachang's unparalleled vision and foresight. Other than the devil king, someone who could really stir up the situation.

People in the world say that Laowa in Sweden has a great vision, and Laowa also prides himself on this. In the past years, he has made public announcements many times, made various comments and predictions, and wanted to show his foresight to the world.

But in fact, Qin Huachang's casual remarks today have far surpassed Lao Wa's repeated showing off back then.

He seemed to see through the destiny at a glance.

So when he said these words, there were three faint thunderclaps in the originally clear sky. Many locals in Yangcheng thought there was a thunderstorm and went out to look up at the sky, but they could not wait for the fourth thunder.

Meanwhile, the three teenagers from Nigeria, who are thousands of miles away, felt a heart-pounding throb at the same moment, as if they had unknowingly fallen into someone's scheme, or were captured by someone. A trace of luck.

This is something for later, let’s not mention it for the time being, let’s say that after the master and apprentice chatted, Wang Chao came back from shopping in the evening. After eating, he waited for a while, and the live broadcast ended. Qin Huachang took the initiative to invite: "Wang Chao, let's chat?"

Wang Chao had expected it a long time ago and readily agreed.
