Ping Pong Life

Chapter 60 Super Luo

"Why can't I come?" The smile on Wang Chao's face became vivid at this moment: "Gao Ming, didn't we agree last time? When you play the game, let me know, and I will come to cheer you on... ...but you never called me once."

He looked at the silent burly man again, and said hello, "Hi, Tian Zhengguang, we meet again. From today, we are teammates."

Fan Xiaoxian froze in place.

This situation was beyond her expectation, but after thinking about it carefully, it was also reasonable.

They're all from the city team, aren't they former teammates?

Just why did Tian Zhengguang have such a strange expression after seeing Wang Chao?
Have you had a holiday before?

Wang Chao was more active than Fan Xiaoxian imagined. He walked towards another player who was resting on a chair by the table, and stretched out his hand, "Hi, my name is Wang Chao, a new player."

The man hurriedly got up, looked at Fan Xiaoxian first, and then seriously replied: "My name is Lu Jia, I have been here for three years, old player, Wang Chao, thank you for still willing to play at Q of Spades at this time, newcomer Let's work hard together this season."

Wang Chao understood immediately.

This person should be regarded as the club's hardcore.

His mood became very good, because at present, the atmosphere in the team should be good, at least the four people on the field are harmonious at this time.

So, what about the one who didn't come?
Wang Chao looked at Fan Xiaoxian.

"The one who didn't come is called Geng Shuai. He is older than you all. He is already 27 years old. He has been in the team for five years and is absolutely reliable."

Fan Xiaoxian was also in a good mood, because she could see that Wang Chao was trying to integrate into the group, so she decided to give Wang Chao a little confidence: "Geng Shuai is a national super athlete. World Series."

The title of "Super Athlete" did surprise Wang Chao a little.

Table tennis super players are not so easy to get. Huaping has clear regulations. Players must enter the national team's main selection and win a card in an international competition. bronze medal.

And if you are eligible to be sent by Huaping to participate in one of the three major events of the World Table Tennis Championships, the World Cup or the Olympics, you only need to be selected to get the title.

After Wang Chao crossed, he had checked the relevant information of the three competitions, but he had never seen the name Geng Shuai. In other words, this Geng Shuai player must have won a medal on the World Tour.

This is a real "national player".

Theoretically speaking, national players should be able to kill all players in the Pingjia, just like a crocodile breaking into a fish pond.

Even in the Table Tennis Super League, the national player is definitely the trump card of every club.

Why do such people stay in Pingjia?And why did he always stay with Spade Q, which was about to be disbanded?

With people like this around, why is Spade Q's score so poor?

Wang Chao was successfully aroused interest.

……

The doubts about Geng Shuai were not immediately answered.

Fan Xiaoxian kept his secret, and Lu Jia refused to say it, and told Wang Chao not to ask Geng Shuai face to face, because Geng Shuai would lose his temper.

So Wang Chao suppressed his doubts and followed Fan Xiaoxian to see the dormitory. Gao Ming took the initiative to accompany him, leaving Tian Zhengguang and Lu Jia to practice duel.

The Table Tennis League is a commercial league, and the living conditions of the players are indeed much better than those of the city team base. They have a two-bedroom and one living room, all household appliances are available, and there are even natural gas and induction cookers, so they can cook for themselves.

The room can be lived alone or shared by two people. Considering that the team members need to be familiar with each other and cooperate with each other, the club advocates shared living.

So Gao Ming abandoned Tian Zhengguang without hesitation, and ran to Wang Chao's side, which made Wang Chao feel a little embarrassed, and always felt that he seemed to have robbed Tian Zhengguang's old love.

As for Lu Jia, he and Geng Shuai have lived together for a year, and now Geng Shuai has not returned to the team, so he lives alone for the time being.

After setting up the residence, Fan Xiaoxian took Wang Chao to her office to fill out various forms. Half an hour later, after completing the forms, she took out a tightly sealed rectangular box from the drawer and handed it to Wang Chao.

"What is this?" Wang Chao was a little confused.

"This is a gift from Director He to you."

Fan Xiaoxian explained: "I asked him why he didn't give it to you in person, but he said he didn't want to disturb your vacation, and told me to hand it over to you on the first day you join the team."

Wang Chao opened the box, and inside was a very beautiful standard plate racket. The rubber had been pasted up, and both sides were sealed with plastic. It was obvious that it had not been opened for a long time. On the handle of the racket, there were three very delicate deep red seal carvings. Small print: Super Luo.

Fan Xiaoxian obviously didn't know what He Jingping was gifting beforehand, when he saw the racket, he subconsciously let out a soft "ah".

"Sister Xian, what is this?"

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the world's first officially mass-produced Super Luo racket."

Fan Xiaoxian was obviously a little shocked: "When Luo Jiu first joined the national team, there was a period of exceptional performance and his own commercial value soared. So when Director He helped him determine all the indicators of the special racket, Red Shuangli took the initiative to come to the door and proposed This racket is going to be mass-produced in a 1:1 imitation and sold externally, and the name of this racket is called Super Luo.”

This is also the practice of table tennis equipment manufacturers. They will specially cooperate with popular national players to launch special models named after players. It is more suitable for the general public, and the "Super Luo" model, if it is a complete 1:1 imitation as Fan Xiaoxian said, it would be quite interesting.

"At that time, the first batch of products came out, and Red Shuangli specially sent the first racket produced back to the national team. Director He and Luo Jiu were invited to appraise the quality. Luo Jiu thought it was quite good after playing it, but because he already had The racket, so I gave this racket to Director He, and since then this racket has become out of print, kept by Director He and never shown to others.”

Fan Xiaoxian had some memories in his expression: "In the following seven years, many people wanted this racket, but Director He refused them all. Once, a wealthy businessman who liked to play table tennis offered 200 million yuan to Director He for this racket. , but was scolded by Director He."

Wang Chao took the racket in his hand and observed it carefully, and found that there were two names in small characters on the glue-free zone between the handle and the racket face, which were "He Jingping" and "Luo Jiu".

"That's right, these two names were also signed by the Red Shuangli people on the spot, and there should be photos for souvenirs. If you search the Internet, you may even find the news from that year."

Fan Xiaoxian couldn't help but look at Wang Chao a few more times, wondering what kind of magic power this kid had in front of him: "Wang Chao, Director He is not generally optimistic about you..."

Wang Chao reached out and picked up a piece of paper folded squarely at the bottom of the box, which was the words He Jingping left him.

Although Fan Xiaoxian was curious, he consciously refused to peek, and turned around to organize the documents on the desk.

The paper was densely filled with sentences, which shows that He Jingping was not in a calm mood when writing the letter.

"Wang Chao, I have formally submitted an application to Mr. Cai Guodong, head coach of the Huaguo National Table Tennis Team, at twelve o'clock in the morning on August [-]st, applying to return to the coaching staff of the national team and take over the training of national team player Luo Jiu. If there are no accidents, I will leave Jiangcheng within a week and return to the imperial capital."

"So when you read this letter, I should not be in Jiangcheng anymore. I may not be able to watch your first table tennis match in person, but I will try my best to come back. Even if I can't, I will Watch it all online - even if it doesn't really mean anything to you."

"I once fell, thank you very much for giving me confidence with a game at a critical moment, and for giving me another suggestion, which pulled me back from my wrong thinking. I really want to be your teacher, but I know I'm not worthy now."

"I will do the things I haven't finished first to make up for my debt to Xiao Jiu. Of course, a very important step is to help him defeat Sun Tianlong."

"I don't know if at that time, our agreement at the entrance of the cafeteria still counts?"

"This racket is specially designed for double-sided arc ball full-table attack. It should be very suitable for you, and you can use it temporarily."

"But it certainly doesn't exactly match your technical indicators, so I hope we can meet again in the national team next year, and I hope we can work together to complete your exclusive customized racket."

Wang Chao folded the paper again, put it in his pocket, and exhaled lightly, with mixed emotions.

People in He Jingping's age are relatively introverted. If he were to say these words in person, he would definitely not be able to say them, but using words as a medium, he finally finished expressing them.

He is very grateful to Wang Chao.

Wang Chao felt a little unbearable.

Because Wang Chao felt that he didn't do anything deliberately, everything was just a matter of convenience.

Then, as you wish, senior, when I finish this season, we will see you in the imperial capital next year.

……

Wang Chao bid farewell to Fan Xiaoxian and returned to the dormitory. Gao Ming was very excited and explained: "The reason why I didn't call you after I left the city team last time is because it was already the end of last season when I joined Spade Q. Not eligible, I don't want you to come and see me on the bench."

Wang Chao asked, "What about this season?"

Gao Ming sighed: "The main candidates for this season must be Geng Shuai, Lu Jia and you. Even if someone is absent for some reason, I will compete with Tian Zhengguang for the post... Let's put it this way, if it weren't for the Q of Spades, it would be impossible to recruit anyone, or They won't sign me, but now, I should be your full-time training partner."

Wang Chao felt sorry for a moment.

But Gao Ming didn't care, and quickly changed to another topic: "I heard that you fought a shocking BO7 with Wu Li?"

Wang Chao was stunned for a moment, still wondering in his heart, this match was obviously kept secret, how could the whole world know about it?
But Gao Ming immediately said again: "Don't be discouraged. Although you lost 4:0, it was because you were exhausted! I watched your game with Boss Fan and the others. I thought you were amazing, so Boss Fan said he was going to sign you!"

Wang Chao was stunned.

So, the outside world's current evaluation of himself is a player who has been forced 4:0?
Although the 4:0 was remarkable and showed outstanding technical and psychological talents, in the eyes of experts, it was at best a four-character evaluation of "the future is promising".

So Boss Fan didn't really come to sign himself at that time, probably just a whim while watching the video, just talking casually.

But Gao Ming obviously misunderstood, and his excitement came from this: "I thought he was just talking, but I didn't expect him to sign you without saying a word. Lao Luo is really partial, Fan When the boss went to sign Wuli, he said that the professional league is a big dye vat, which will affect the future of Wuli, but when Boss Fan went to sign you, he sold you without saying a word."

He suddenly slapped Wang Chao on the shoulder, and said with a laugh: "Wow, you boy, you fought so hard with me at the beginning, I thought you were really bad, and I sincerely reminded you after the fight, who knew you They are simply hiding their strength."

Wang Chao thought about it, and felt that it was better to be honest with teammates, after all, they would get along day and night in the future, and they couldn't hide it.

He said: "Actually, Boss Fan signed me not because of the game you watched, but because I fought with Wuli again later. I beat him 4-1 with a left-handed horizontal stroke, but that game was rejected. Lao Luo strictly kept it secret and did not spread it.”

Gao Ming was stunned: "Then how did Boss Fan see it?"

Wang Chaodao: "Because Coach He Jingping passed the video to Luo Jiu, and Luo Jiu passed the video to Boss Fan, so Boss Fan went to the city team base overnight, asked Coach He Jingping to connect me, and signed me."

Gao Ming stared blankly at him for a long time, and said full of emotion: "Wang Chao, I have a hunch that I should have a very happy first season in my career."

Wang Chao was puzzled: "Why?"

Gao Ming finally couldn't hold back anymore, and laughed loudly: "Wang Chao, why didn't I see that you are so humorous before? You look so serious, you are still pretending, you are still pretending, hahahaha, you can't laugh anymore!"
