Table Tennis: Super Grand Slam

Chapter 43 Go to Star City to participate in the Table Tennis World Championship

December 2009, 1.

Because it was a national holiday, there was no need for training. Li Ying rarely slept until 9:30 in the morning.

After washing up, I went to the living room.

Wang Xiqing was sitting at the computer, handling work matters.

"Aying, do you want to have breakfast?" Wang Xiqing asked with a smile.

"Uncle Wang, that's not necessary. Dinner will probably be ready soon." In the kitchen, the nanny hired by the Wang family was busy.

Soon, Wang Xianlan also got up.

At 10 am, we officially have lunch.

Since he has been living in Wang's house, Li Ying is not the reserved person. He eats his meals and meat with big mouthfuls.

I have to say that the Wang family’s chef is very skilled.

Ordinary home-cooked dishes can be made extremely delicious.

After eating.

Wang Xianlan pulled Li Ying to the table tennis room.

"Xianlan, are you here to get bullied because you're full?" Li Ying said with a smile.

"Humph, my strength is improving very quickly now. But it doesn't necessarily mean that one will bully the other!" Wang Xianlan smiled confidently.

"I admire your confidence!" Li Ying picked up the table tennis racket and started warming up with Wang Xianlan.

"We are all about to hold the 2008 Table Tennis World Championship in Xingcheng. In that case, I will give you a small New Year's gift. I will simulate the playing styles of the female players you will encounter in this world championship so that you can compete with them in advance!" Li Ying said with a smile.

After hearing this, Wang Xianlan looked at Li Ying in great surprise.

"Li Ying, when did you develop this ability? Imitating the women's table tennis team?" Wang Xianlan asked in surprise.

"Why don't you try it and know?" Li Ying said with a smile.

Wang Xianlan seemed to believe it, and began to fight with Li Ying in half belief and doubt.

Li Ying reduced his strength and speed and started the simulation at 100%.

Seven innings were played.

Wang Xianlan finally defeated Li Ying 4-3 and she was very happy.

and.

Li Ying's imitation really gave people the feeling that she was in the women's singles final.

"Li Ying, when will you study our women's team thoroughly? You are simply amazing!" Wang Xianlan looked at Li Ying with admiration.

"You can do it by watching the game videos!" Li Ying said with a smile.

"Come again!"

Wang Xianlan was tireless because this novel experience made her addicted.

Li Ying continued the simulation.

Li Ying and Wang Xianlan stayed in the table tennis room all day.

After dinner, Li Ying said goodbye.

After all, it's only necessary to stay at Wang Xianlan's house for one night. It's not appropriate to stay there for a long time.

After all, they haven't really established a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.

After Li Ying left the villa area, Wang Xiqing asked his driver to take Li Ying back to the national team training base.

Wang Xianlan stood at the window and watched Li Ying get into the car and leave the villa community.

"Xianlan, tell your mother the truth, do you like him?" Wang Xianlan's mother walked to her side and looked at the scenery with Wang Xianlan.

"Mom, I'm only 17 years old." Wang Xianlan twisted her body.

"No, you are 18 now!" Wang Xianlan's mother laughed. "You are only 18. I won't fall in love before I win the Olympic women's singles championship and achieve the Grand Slam!" Wang Xianlan naturally has her own pursuits.

She loves table tennis very much.

Otherwise, if she didn't like him so much, she would be able to do anything given her family background.

"You, you also play little tricks on me in front of me. Do you think mom and dad can't see your little tricks?" Wang Xianlan's mother looked at her proud and spoiled baby daughter with a loving face.

"Mom, I really haven't thought about dating now. But I always want to be with him. Because when I'm with him, even if I don't do anything, I'm happy and I feel comfortable."

Wang Xianlan didn’t know if this was the feeling of being in love.

"Silly child, you said you don't want to fall in love."

Returning to the national team training base, on the way back to the dormitory, we had to pass by the table tennis hall.

When Li Ying saw that the table tennis hall was brightly lit, he couldn't help but walk in to take a look.

"You all are worthy of being my 'good teammates'. You worked hard in private without informing me at all."

Li Ying looked around.

Meng Li, Ma Qing, Su Yan, Liu Geng, Dou Yang, Liang Long, Kong Fengge, and Xu Guinian are all in training.

They all have their own sparring partners.

He is considered the main force of the national table tennis team.

Moreover, among the national table tennis coaching team, except for head coach Dong Yaobang and coach Chen Daqian, the other three head coaches Wu Weijin, Qin Yucheng, and Liao Huazhong are all present.

Li Ying's sparring partner Yu Xuejian was not there, so Li Ying looked at him for a while and then went back to the dormitory.

I returned to the dormitory, picked up my phone, and happily called my parents.

He then called his grandparents back home and promised his younger brother and sister that he would bring them gifts when he returned for the New Year. Then Li Ying lay down and fell asleep.

The training days always go by quickly.

1 month 9 number.

The men's team will be led by head coach Dong Yaobang, and the national table tennis coaching team will accompany him.

Olympic men's singles champion Ma Qing, 2008 World Cup defending champion Monli, 2007 World Table Tennis Championships men's singles champion Chen Daqian, 2008 ITTF World Tour Finals men's singles champion Li Ying, and world No. 2008 Liang Long will participate in the Table Tennis World Championships to be held in Xingcheng.

In other words, out of the eight players participating in the men's singles at the 2008 Table Tennis World Championships, the Xia national table tennis team occupied five seats.

The other three are equally strong.

Thiem, one of the German twin stars who have been very strong recently.

After arriving in Star City by plane, take a car to the hotel.

When we arrived at the hotel, Li Ying and Chen Daqian were still in the same room.

"Brother Qian, although this is the third international A-level event named "World" in the international table tennis world. Its level is equivalent to the World Championships, the Olympic Table Tennis Championships, the World Cup, and the Professional Tour Finals. It is one of the top five table tennis events in the world. But why does it feel dull and lack the atmosphere of a major competition?" Li Ying said with a smile.

Chen Daqian smiled and said, "For example, there are only eight players in our men's singles competition. Five of them are from Xia Country. There is no doubt that this will be a domestic battle in Xia Country in the end. That means you will play against Tim from Germany in the quarter-finals, and I will directly face Liang Long in the first round. Meng Li and Ma Qing's opponents are all foreign players."

"Then Brother Qian, you better be careful. Liang Long has some experience in beating you!" Li Ying said with a smile.

In the Xia country's national table tennis team, a food chain operates invisibly.

There is no need to say much about the incompatibility of two good horses. Chen Daqian defeats Ma Qing, Ma Qing defeats Mengli, and Mengli defeats Chen Daqian.

Among the national table tennis team, the most obvious restraint came from Monrik and Liang Long.

It was really a one-hit-one hit. It was difficult for Liang Long to win when fighting against Mengli.

"It's okay, I've already won the Grand King Cup, it doesn't matter!" Chen Daqian's mentality is really good.

Li Ying then remembered and said, "That's right. You lifted the Grand King Cup in the first session in 2006, and it was Mengli who won the Grand King Cup in 2007."

So far.

The 2008 Table Tennis World Championships was only the third one.
