Ping Pong Life

Chapter 86: Generational Cultivation Plan (Monthly Ticket Plus Update)
Wang Chao pricked up his ears and listened carefully. The conversation on that table was actually in Sakura Mandarin.

Obviously, this is a gathering of Hiroshi Yoshikawa and his fellow countrymen. If it is reasonable to speculate, the other teenagers may also be foreign players in the Huaguo table tennis world, but it is not known whether they are in the table tennis league or in the table tennis super.

While Wang Chao was looking over, Yoshikawa Hiroshi was also looking over, and the two of them were looking straight at each other.

The Sakura Country player was impeccable in terms of etiquette. When he saw Wang Chao, he was taken aback for a moment, then immediately stood up and bowed to salute, then ran over and smiled, "Wang Chaosang, we meet again."

Geng Shuai bared his teeth. On such a happy occasion, he suddenly met someone who shaved his head in the afternoon. He felt a little awkward, but he couldn't say anything because the other party was so polite.

Fortunately, Yoshikawa Hiroshi was only interested in Wang Chao, and he didn't look down on others at all. He smiled and said, "Wang Chao-sang is so skilled at the game, but it's a pity that I couldn't play against him today. I'm still regretting it. I didn't expect to see you now." Here we are...Wang Chaosang, since we are destined to meet again, why don't we talk?"

I don't know who this guy learned Chinese from, it's very literary.

Wang Chao didn't drink anyway, seeing that Geng Shuai and Tian Zhengguang were blowing on the bottle, and he was idle too, so he said indifferently, "Okay, where should we talk?"

Yoshikawa Koichi pointed to the place where he was sitting: "There."

Several teenagers from the Sakura Country over there had already got up one after another, gave up the table, and went to the other side to sit down again.

It seems that Hiroshi Yoshikawa has a lot of status among these people.

The two sat at the table, and it was only then that Wang Chao realized that Yoshikawa Hiroshi didn't drink alcohol either. There was a bottle of sake made by Sakura and a teapot on the table.Other people's cups are full of clear and transparent wine, only Yoshikawa Hiroshi has yellow orange tea in front of him.

This made Wang Chao a little more wary of the young man from the Sakura Country in front of him.

Although he didn't like what Hiroshi Yoshikawa did to Geng Shuai on the field today, he had to admit that this young man from the Sakura Country who came across the ocean has quite good skills and strict self-discipline.

In fact, in the afternoon game, Hiroshi Yoshikawa almost overthrew Geng Shuai.

The third game of the first game was scored 14:12, which shows that Hiroshi Yoshikawa only needs a little more effort to break the myth of "the god of opening".

He was curious what Yoshikawa Hiroshi wanted to talk to him about.

Yoshikawa Hiroshi did not show off, he stood up and poured tea for Wang Chao, then smiled and said, "Does Wang Chao-san have any ideas about next year's Olympic Games?"

Wang Chao was taken aback.

This topic can go too far.

"I checked Wang Chaosang's information. You are stronger than me, but you are one year younger than me. You can be regarded as a very powerful genius."

Yoshikawa Hiroshi was not self-effacing, and said: "I plan to go back next year, participate in the national trials, and strive for the men's singles spot in the Olympics. Wang Chaosang is so powerful, so I should also want to see the scenery in the Olympics, right?"

Wang Chao didn't know how to explain for a while.

Obviously, Hiroshi Yoshikawa in front of him doesn't understand the table tennis selection system with Huaguo's characteristics, and everything is analogous to the situation in Sakura's country.

Cherry Blossom's domestic veterans have withered and their performance has been poor for many years. Therefore, in recent years, drastic reforms have been carried out, and one of the most critical measures is called the "generational training plan".

The so-called generational training is to devote all resources to dolls, give them the best training since they were young, and give them a lot of opportunities when they are a little older, let them play various international competitions, big and small, so that they can Accumulating experience can also broaden horizons.

Doing so will naturally harm the interests of the veterans. Those opportunities for international competitions that originally belonged to the veterans are now usurped by the younger generation.

This is a sacrificial strategy enforced by the state. The so-called "dating of generations" naturally means sacrificing one generation to complete the next.

It has to be said that the people of Sakura Country are still ruthless in some aspects.

And Hiroshi Yoshikawa is undoubtedly a member of the generational training plan. He is known as a member of the golden generation in Sakura, and he is placed with great expectations.

And next year's Olympic quota will be registered by all the athletes in Sakura's country, and the competition will be unified. Those who are capable will get in and those who are incompetent will get out. As for age, connections, previous honors, and contributions to the country, these factors are not considered .

"Three years ago, my father took me to watch all the table tennis matches in the last Olympic Games, and he told me that four years later, he still wanted to sit down and watch the games, but he didn't want me to sit next to him , he wanted me to stand on the court and fight for the honor of the country."

Hiroshi Yoshikawa's eyes sparkled at this moment: "That's why my father tried every means to send me to China, because it is recognized as the place with the most table tennis masters in the world, and it is also the place with the most styles of table tennis in the world. place, he said, if I can beat everyone here, I can become a ping pong fairy."

Wang Chao curled his lips in an extremely cryptic manner, somewhat disapproving.

The people of Sakura Country are basically kings of mouth, who are good at putting gold on their faces. If they make ramen well, they are called Ramen Senjin. Immortals, etc., are countless, and even the title of toilet fairy is being scrambled for.

Hiroshi Yoshikawa's desire to become a Ping-Pong Immortal is a normal reaction under the influence of this culture.

Wang Chao decided to throw a little cold water on it: "But you are now playing in the lowest level of professional table tennis in Huaguo, and you can't even rank in the top three in table tennis. When do you think you will become a table tennis fairy? "

"I am ashamed."

Hiroshi Yoshikawa is very honest: "Three years ago, I went to five ping-pong super teams for trial training, but I failed in the end, so I had to enter the table tennis first. Last year, I felt that my strength had improved, so I contacted the table tennis super team again. The team wanted to have a trial training, but a table tennis super team from Suzhou told me that they also have a team in table tennis. As long as I promise to help them play table tennis for a year, they will give me a chance to play During the offseason, I went to the table tennis super team to train with the team, and there are two national players in their team."

After finishing these words, Hiroshi Yoshikawa closed his mouth and looked at Wang Chao quietly.

Wang Chao couldn't help being a little confused.

Hiroshi Yoshikawa took the initiative to say these things, is it to whitewash what he did in the afternoon?
This doesn't seem to be clear, does it?
For his actions in the afternoon, he bears the risk of being punished, but only Yang Chi benefits. This has nothing to do with the Osmanthus Fragrance Club.

"So, the team that the table tennis super team asked you to come to is Osmanthus Fragrance? And the reason why you are willing to come is because they let you train with two national players during the offseason?"

Hiroshi Yoshikawa laughed and said, "Hey!"

Then he asked: "So Wang Chaosang, do you want to go to the Olympics?"

Wang Chao smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "No chance."

Hiroshi Yoshikawa's eyes widened: "Why?"

Wang Chao moved his lips, but said nothing.

He already understood that although the young man from the Sakura Kingdom in front of him could be regarded as a mature young man, he was still a frog at the bottom of a well, and he had no idea how strong Hua Guo Ping Pong was.

Probably Yoshikawa Hiroshi thinks that Wang Chao is already at the Olympic level at this moment. After all, he can beat Yang Chi 33:0.

That's right, he can even be called "the strongest men's singles player in history" in places like Luxembourg, the Vatican, and Iceland.

In the country of cherry blossoms, there is indeed a chance to compete for the Olympic singles spot. After all, even Hiroshi Yoshikawa has a chance.

But in Huaguo, Wang Chao knew that he was still far behind.

Not to mention anything else, just one thing: Every morning, whenever Geng Shuai appears, Wang Chao will invite him to play a game.

Only play one round.

Half a month later, Wang Chao never won the first game.

But today's Geng Shuai no longer has the demeanor he had when he was in his heyday.

Therefore, Geng Shuai's first game was probably the strength that a real main player of the national team should have in a normal game.

Wang Chao expects to pass this hurdle next month.

No matter how talented he is, he still needs time to grow, and it is impossible to become number one in the world overnight.

What's more, Huaguo's table tennis selection system is not as "only the strong" as Sakuraguo.

There are too many masters in Huaguo, and different masters have different styles, and there are mutual restraints between styles. Therefore, Huaguo has chosen the candidate for the battle over the years. It is by no means choosing the strongest person in the civil war, but the strongest in the foreign war The strong one.

Those who are the strongest in the civil war can only show off in the Ping Ping Super League, and only those who are the strongest in the foreign war can raise the five-star red flag in the international arena.

Personal honor and national honor are two completely different concepts.

Of course, in recent years, this question has become more vague, because Sun Tianlong is the number one in both civil wars and foreign wars.

In addition, Huaping also has some "seniority rankings".

This is not entirely a bad thing, nor is it entirely bureaucratic, because everyone should not forget that the tradition of national table tennis has always been not "the seniors take the initiative to give way", but "the juniors grab the class and seize power".

That's why many talented teenagers with amazing talents will be suppressed by their seniors who are also talented for five or six years. When they finally come out, they will not be too young.

In this case, if a veteran player and a young player have the same strength and record, which one do you ask the coaching staff to choose?
Of course, choose the old one.

Because if you don't give him another chance, maybe his life will be wasted.

He has been waiting for many years, just waiting for an opportunity, you must give it to him, right?
There are so many people waiting to go to the international arena to win the championship, you have to let them line up in order, right?
"Human touch" is sometimes a commendatory term and sometimes a derogatory term, but there is no doubt that Huaguo has always been a humane country, so for the national team, in fact, the "rule of man" is often greater than the "rule of law" .

On the matter of the number of players to play, a word from head coach Cai Guodong weighs more than a gold medal on the world tour.

Otherwise, why did Wang Chao have to join the rich family?

Wang Chao sees these methods clearly, so he clearly knows that unless there is a big change in the national team, otherwise, next year's Olympic Games will not be his turn anyway.

No chance at all.
