Chapter 24 Advancing to the Men's Doubles Finals, Chen Daqian's Feelings Six days have passed since the official competition day of the National Championships. The next two days will be the time to decide the champions of men's doubles and men's singles. November 11, 23:8 am. The men's doubles competition resumes. We will play until the men's doubles semi-finals in the morning. lunch break. In the evening, it will be the men's doubles final. It was especially easy to coach Meng Enming off the field. Because both Li Ying and Ma Qing are table tennis superstars who play very smartly.
Even if there are mistakes, there is no need for him to remind you. Li Ying and Ma Qing were able to give each other guidance. In this case. Even though the men's doubles in this tournament were filled with strong competitors, the final four in men's doubles was not unexpected. Table tennis enthusiasts are also discussing the issue online. "Alas, other men's doubles teams still can't get over the mountain!" "Nonsense, those four men's doubles pairs are almost the top eight of the current national table tennis team." "In the upper half, there are Meng Li/Kong Fengge and Chen Daqian/Xu Guinian, and in the lower half, there are Ma Qing/Li Ying and Liang Long's doubles combination." "This completely covers the Thousand-Li Horse, Kylin Dragon, Phoenix and Turtle!" "Qilin dragon, phoenix and turtle? What on earth is this?" "Li Ying is the Qilin, and he is the undefeated Qilin. Isn't this the same as the dragon, phoenix and turtle, the four sacred beasts of the Xia country table tennis team?" "Well, the dragon, phoenix and turtle were originally called the Three Musketeers of National Table Tennis. But now, they have become the Four Sacred Beasts!" "Yes, I think this title is quite good. The Qilin, the Dragon, the Phoenix and the Turtle are the four sacred beasts recorded in the mythology of our Xia country!" On the Internet, the names of the four sacred beasts, the Qilin, the Dragon, the Phoenix, and the Tortoise, are becoming more and more popular. But these. Li Ying and others who are competing in the venue don’t know yet. After the men's doubles semi-finals were decided. There are still semi-finals to go. Because the men's doubles final will be held in the evening.
And according to the previous draw. Li Ying knew that their opponents were the men's doubles combination led by Liang Long. But at this time, they did not enjoy the live broadcast of Channel C. Because Channel C was broadcasting the ultimate battle between two other pairs of men's doubles. Meng Li/Kong Fengge VS Chen Daqian/Xu Guinian! Li Ying didn't say anything about this. The most urgent task is to defeat the men's doubles pair of Liang Long and enter the men's doubles final. At this moment, the coaching staff of the Chinese men's table tennis team have all arrived. There were also many national team athletes who had been eliminated, sitting around the coaching staff, watching this rare men's doubles battle. finally. Li Ying and Ma Qing defeated Liang Long and his team 3-0 in the men's doubles match. Because in a one-on-one fight, neither Li Ying nor Ma Qing is weaker than Liang Long. What's more, Liang Long's teammates are not the main players of the national team. In this case, there is no power to resist. At this time, Li Ying and Ma Qing began to watch the life-and-death battle at the next table. Currently the ratio at the next table is still 1:1! "Aying, come here!" During the break between games, Dong Yaobang summoned Li Ying and Ma Qing over. When Li Ying and Ma Qing walked to the national team coaching staff, naturally some members of the national table tennis team immediately stood up and gave their seats to Li Ying and Ma Qing, so that Li Ying and Ma Qing were right next to the national table tennis coaching staff. "It's still easy for you two. You've finished the game and the score is still 1:1!" said the men's team head coach Dong Yaobang with a smile. "We are different. We play more relaxed!" Ma Qing replied. "Aying, do you have confidence in the men's doubles final?" Dong Yaobang asked with a smile. "How can I not have confidence when I join forces with Brother Ma? I just lie down and Brother Ma will carry me flying!" Li Ying looked lazy, and he just wanted to be carried away. "Aying, these words should be mine," Ma Qing disagreed. As we were talking, the two men's doubles pairs were really fighting like crazy. Every point, even every cricket, is carefully considered. "They are both in very good form. In terms of hard power, Mengli and Fengge are stronger than Daqian and Guinian. However, in table tennis competition, Daqian and Guinian do not want to give up the victory!" Wu Weijing commented. In the national team, he is the head coach of Mengli and Ma Qing. "Indeed, no one wants to lose!" Ma Qing said meaningfully.
The competition in the Xia country's national table tennis team is fierce. Now Ma Qing has realized the ambition of the new generation of table tennis players to seize power in the national table tennis team, and has even begun to attack them. but. Ma Qing glanced at Li Ying beside him. The Dragon, Phoenix and Turtle had not yet launched a large-scale power grab, but suddenly a man named Li Ying appeared. Li Ying is more aggressive than the dragon, phoenix and turtle in seizing power. The three of them felt the pressure completely. That kind of competitive pressure. 2: 1! 2: 2! Both pairs of men's doubles want to reach the men's doubles final. At this point, it is entirely a test of willpower, mentality, and the use of skills and tactics. But in the end. It was Mengli and Kong Fengge who had the last laugh. Because they also want to stand on the stage of the men's doubles final. Normally, they don't have such a strong fighting spirit in their hearts. But this year's national championship is different. Li Ying's sudden rise has brought them a lot of pressure invisibly. Finished the men's doubles semi-finals. Chen Daqian was very tired. "Guinian, I'm sorry, I made a lot of mistakes today, otherwise, the victory would have been ours!" Chen Daqian concluded after the game. "Brother Qian, it's mine. I'm not strong enough. Otherwise, we would not have lost to them." No matter how optimistic Xu Guinian was, he was still very unhappy after losing consecutive games. What’s more important is that he really wants to face Li Ying on the final stage. Li Ying is their younger brother. But precisely because of this, they want to fight against the Lingnan Twins in the men's doubles final. but. Now they don't have that opportunity. "In this match, I really feel what it means that time is unforgiving." Chen Daqian finally realized it at this moment. At the age of 30, he has reached the age of thirty, and is indeed not as good as he was when he was young, in terms of physical strength and peak condition. His opponents in this battle, Meng Li is 25 years old and Kong Fengge is 20 years old! They are all younger than him. If it were during the years when he was at his peak, there was absolutely no way he would be worse than Meng Li and Kong Fengge.
But now, time makes people grow old. Thirty years old is already the end of the peak period for table tennis players. At this time, it is like the setting sun, how can it compare to the rising sun. At this moment, the idea of retiring suddenly came to Chen Daqian's mind. Because a new generation has emerged in the current Xiaguo table tennis team. Perhaps, it is time for him to withdraw from the core force. Moreover, even if we want to keep the core force now, it is impossible. Because the Xia country's national table tennis team is about to start preparing for the 12 Olympics. Having already won bronze in two Olympic Games, Chen Daqian knew that he would never have the opportunity to compete in the men's singles event in the 12 Olympics. "Brother Qian, please don't. You are still so strong, and there is also men's singles!" It would have been better if Xu Guinian didn't mention this. Once he mentioned this, Chen Daqian was filled with thoughts. "My luck in the draw was not very good. When I was advancing from the quarterfinals to the semifinals, my opponent was Aying!" Chen Daqian sighed. Xu Guinian: “???” At this moment, Xu Guinian really wanted to slap himself. If you don’t know how to speak, then don’t speak. There were no matches scheduled for the afternoon. but. Ma Qing pulled Li Ying to the competition venue. The men's doubles final will be held tonight. It is naturally impossible to rest in the afternoon, so you need to do appropriate exercise to maintain your condition. And Ma Qing. Then they brought in a pair of sparring partners. Li Ying gave a thumbs up, "Brother Ma, you are awesome!" Looking at Chen Daqian and Xu Guinian opposite him, Li Ying couldn't help but admire them. "Haha, I don't have the chance to play against you in the men's doubles final. But I can give you a beating when I'm your sparring partner. If it weren't for my old age and frailty, Xiao Lizi and the others would be nothing to me!" Chen Daqian said with a smile. At this moment, Mengli, who was also training next door, heard this. "Brother Qian, do you want to play singles to warm up?" Mengli directly invited him. "Forget it. I've bullied you too much, or you'll say I'm on Aying's side!" Chen Daqian flatly refused. Li Ying looked at the men's doubles sparring partners that Meng Li and Kong Fengge had found. Liang Long and Su Yan! Afternoon training begins. According to the competition mode, Li Ying and Ma Qing fought Chen Daqian and Xu Guinian with real swords and guns.
finally. He beat Chen Daqian and Xu Guinian 6-0. After the first score of 3-0, both Chen Daqian and Xu Guinian were unwilling to accept the result. then. After the second 3-0 score, they were convinced. But on the other side, Mengli and Kong Fengge were defeated by Liang Long and Su Yan. Seeing this scene, Li Ying laughed and said, "Mengge, Fengge, you are too mean. You actually threw smoke bombs at us!" Li Ying teased. But in fact. Mengli was helpless. "Where the f*cking smokescreen is this? These two bastards are really here to bully Feng Ge and me!" Meng Li pointed at Liang Long and Su Yan. Liang Long and Su Yan laughed out loud. They looked at each other and indeed, they were giving it their all. Liang Long said with a smile: "Brother Meng, just tell me, is this training effect good or not?" Liang Long's words caused the whole audience to laugh. Ma Qing also joked: "The effect is not very good, the pressure you put on them is not enough, their mentality has not collapsed yet!" "Brother Ma, I'll be waiting for you right away!" Kong Fengge said with a smile. Because they are all national teams, in a civil war like this one, the coach usually won't come forward. not to mention. Even without this rule, the coach would not have stepped in. Since Meng Li and Ma Qing are both disciples of Coach Wu Weijing, it is impossible for Coach Wu Weijing to fight against each other. We trained until five in the afternoon and then went to the cafeteria to eat. Then I went back to the hotel to wash up and lie down on the bed to rest for a while. 7 . The first match to be held was the women's singles semi-final. Then came the men's doubles final. Finally it’s the women’s singles final!
and so. At this time, the national table tennis team sat together and watched the women's singles semi-finals. Wang Xianlan entered the women's singles semi-finals. Li Ying feels that Wang Xianlan has a good chance of defending the women's singles title this time. In this case, if she can become the women's singles champion for two consecutive times, Wang Xianlan will definitely be the core player that the next generation of the women's team will focus on training. On the women's team, the handover was very natural and normal. (End of this chapter)
