Table Tennis: Super Grand Slam

Chapter 31: Four of the Five Tiger Generals of Xia Kingdom fought in the upper half of the group, live on Channel C, sweeping Park Kwang-ho!
12 month 11 number.

Haojiang, five-star hotel.

Li Ying's deep sleep ended and he woke up from the bed with great comfort. The person who shared the room with him was naturally the head coach Chen Daqian.

At the same time, Chen Daqian also woke up.

"Aying, put on your clothes and go downstairs for a run first!" Chen Daqian always pays attention to Li Ying's physical fitness and usually tries to find ways to improve Li Ying's physical fitness.

"Running is a good exercise to warm up!" Li Ying said with a smile.

But when he walked out of the hotel, Li Ying found that he was not the only one who came down to run and exercise.

Wang Xianlan also came to run accompanied by her head coach Hou Bingguang.

Wang Xianlan was wearing a tight sportswear, which showed off her proud figure.

This is also one of the sources of Wang Xianlan's pain.

But there is no way to stop physical development.

As they ran, Chen Daqian was in the front with Hou Bingguang, and Li Ying and Wang Xianlan were behind.

"Li Ying, are you confident that you can win the championship this time?" Wang Xianlan asked curiously.

"Yeah!" Li Ying is always confident.

"My chances are not very good!" Wang Xianlan was a little frustrated.

Because the other two teammates who came to participate in this competition are not easy to deal with.

"If you want to win a Grand Slam, your teammates are the ones you have to surpass. Especially for you women's table tennis players, it often depends on the team's performance to decide who wins the Grand Slam!" Li Ying said with a smile.

"That's true!" Wang Xianlan nodded in agreement.

"Come on!" Li Ying started to speed up.

After a brief warm-up, I went back to the hotel to take a shower, changed into sportswear, and then went downstairs for breakfast.

After breakfast, we will go to the table tennis hall that the national table tennis team has booked in advance for simple training.

The 2008 ITTF Grand Prix will officially start tomorrow, and another important task today is the draw.

and so.

Only Chen Daqian was left in the coaching team, as the other coaches went to watch the draw.

It was just right for Chen Daqian to be Li Ying's sparring partner, Ma Qing to practice with Meng Li, and Su Yan to practice with Liang Long.

In the afternoon.

Dong Yaobang, Qin Yucheng, Wu Weijin and others came back.

But their faces didn't look good.

Li Ying, Ma Qing, Meng Li, Liang Long and Su Yan stood in a row.

Dong Yaobang said in a deep voice: "The results of the draw have come out. Li Ying, Ma Qing, Liang Long, and Su Yan are all in the upper half. Meng Li is alone in the lower half."

After these words were spoken, the Five Tiger Generals of the Xia Kingdom were completely stunned.

International Table Tennis Federation, why target them like this?

Of the five tiger generals, four were placed in the upper half, which clearly meant that the Xia national table tennis team wanted to engage in internal fighting in advance to consume their energy and physical strength.

Dong Yaobang said again: "It is impossible for us to achieve the goal of having all the top four players in the 2008 ITTF World Tour Finals!"

Li Ying, Ma Qing, Meng Li, Liang Long, Su Yan: "???"

Only at this time did the Five Tiger Generals understand why Dong Yaobang was angry.

"But if we don't lose the foreign war, we can still meet in the final. So my request to the five of you is the same, don't lose the foreign war."

"Once you lose a foreign match, it will greatly affect your rating in the eyes of the coaching staff. The national table tennis coaching staff is brewing a plan regarding the selection rules for the men's singles players for the 12 Olympics."

"It will be clear at a glance who will stand out after going through all the rules. By then, don't talk about who the coaching staff favors. Judging by the scores, you will have absolutely nothing to say!"

Dong Yaobang's final words were very solemn. The Five Tiger Generals all understood that they could lose the civil war but could not fail in the foreign war.

After the disbandment, Chen Daqian said to Li Ying: "Aying, your first round opponent is your 'old rival'!" Li Ying didn't even need to guess, he already knew who it was.

"It must be Park Kwang-ho from Goryeo!" Li Ying said with a smile.

"Fuck, why is he in the upper half? Why not in the lower half?" At this time, Mengli felt a little unhappy.

One of his inner demons is Park Kwang-ho.

"Mengge, you'd better take it easy. You are guarding the lower half alone. If the lower half is lost, I guess you will be torn to pieces by the head coach himself!" Li Ying said with a smile.

"I have no problem defending the lower half, but you guys are still fighting fiercely in the upper half! The four of you will definitely fight to the death. I just don't know which warrior will eventually stand out and face me!" Mengli said gloatingly.

Although there is pressure in defending the lower half alone, Mengli feels that the pressure is not as great as breaking through in the upper half.

"It must be me, Mengge. You said it was a fight between dragons and tigers. I am the dragon, and among the three of you, who is the tiger?" Liang Long interrupted.

After these words were spoken, Li Ying, Ma Qing and Su Yan all looked at Liang Long.

"Brother Long, when did you become so active? How come your personality has changed after not seeing you for more than ten days!" Li Ying said in surprise.

"Aaron, who gave you the courage to become so confident now?" Ma Qing patted Liang Long's shoulder.

"Along, I should be the tiger. Let's get rid of Li Ying and Ma Qing. In the semi-finals of the upper half, we will stage a fight between dragons and tigers!" Su Yan said with great pride.

After Chen Daqian retired, Ma Qing became the big brother of the national team.

"I admire your courage, and I hope you can always maintain your confidence!" Ma Qingfeng said calmly.

Now that he has fully adapted to inorganic glue, his strength has even improved to a higher level.

All he needs now is a World Table Tennis Championship title to become the first male table tennis player in Xia's history to win the Grand Slam!
He failed to win the championship in the first five World Table Tennis Championships.

Ma Qing’s biggest dream is to win the men’s singles title at the World Table Tennis Championships to be held next year.

In this way, a grand slam achievement can be achieved.

and so.

Ma Qing's desire to fight and his determination to win are even greater than Meng Li's.

Because the Olympics will not be held until four years later.

But the World Table Tennis Championships will be held next year.

And next year, I will only be 29 years old.

On December 12, the opening ceremony of the 12 ITTF Grand Prix was held.

After the opening ceremony.

The men's singles top 16 advance to the quarterfinals and the competition begins.

This time, the 2008 ITTF Grand Prix will be broadcast live on Channel C's table tennis channel.

The five tiger generals of Xia country went to the battle, but Channel C broadcast the match between Li Ying and Park Kwang-ho live.

This scene caused an uproar in the Xia Kingdom.

After all, among the talented people, although Chen Daqian has retired, Mengli and Ma Qing are still there and are in their prime.

However, on second thought, Li Ying had just won four gold medals in the National Championships, and his opponent was Park Kwang-ho, the men's singles gold medalist at the 04 Olympics.

For the sake of ratings, it seems normal for Channel C to make this choice.

Li Ying saw the live broadcast of Channel C.

More motivated.

He swept Park Kwang-ho 3- directly and cleanly, and controlled Park Kwang-ho's highest score in a single game to points.

then.

The ratings of Channel C have skyrocketed like a rocket.

Among the eight two-on-two duels, Li Ying was the first to finish the game.
