Table Tennis: Super Grand Slam

Chapter 52 Li Ying's way of coaxing people to sleep, Channel C strongly promotes the dragon, phoenix and turtle

"Aying, please behave yourself!" Xu Guinian smiled bitterly helplessly.

After the men's singles draw, the men's doubles draw will begin.

There is nothing much to say about the men's doubles draw. The two men's doubles teams from Xiaguo are located in the upper and lower halves respectively.

In this case, theoretically, there is a possibility of meeting in the finals.

But this time, the Denmark Open brings together table tennis superstars from all over the world, and it is not so easy for them to meet in the final.

soon.

The three coaches who went to draw lots, Chen Daqian, Qin Yucheng and Liao Huazhong returned to the hotel.

Inside the room, Chen Daqian said with a smile, "Aying, this draw is more favorable for you. After all, you will play against Truss in the quarter-finals, so you have more experience. On the contrary, Kong Fengge will face a greater test. If he wants to enter the semi-finals, he must defeat Thiem."

“It doesn’t matter who I meet. No matter whether it’s a civil war or a foreign war, I will eventually win one by one and stand on the final podium.” Li Ying doesn’t care at all now.

His strength score has reached 97. Although it is not the only one in the world at present, even the strongest Monli is still at 97.9 and has not reached 98 points. In other words, Li Ying's strength is already at the top level among the world's table tennis superstars.

However, players like Mengli and Ma Qing will probably be able to break through 98 points easily or soon.

But Li Ying was fearless.

As long as you win the Danish Open Championship, you can upgrade a certain table tennis skill to the maximum level, and it will directly lead to an increase in your strength score.

"Go to bed early. The only way to adjust to the jet lag as quickly as possible is by sleeping." Chen Daqian said with a smile.

Li Ying was lying on the bed.

The phone vibrated slightly.

Wang Xianlan sent a message.

The women's team also gave their all in this Denmark Open.

For example, Wang Xianlan and Qiao Yuning will both participate, and Wang Xianlan and Qiao Yuning will also compete as a women's doubles combination.

"Can't sleep?" Li Ying saw that Wang Xianlan sent an emoticon on the communication app.

"Well, I'm very tired and I really want to rest, but I just can't fall asleep."

In the hotel room, Wang Xianlan tossed and turned.

She was naturally in the same room with Qiao Yuning, but Qiao Yuning in the bed next to her had already fallen asleep peacefully.

"What's wrong? Are you worried about something?" Li Ying continued to ask.

"No, I just can't sleep." Li Ying could see through the text the cute and innocent look on Wang Xianlan's face when she replied.

"Then I will teach you a good way to fall asleep quickly. Just keep repeating the two words 'Li Ying' in your mind, and maybe you will fall asleep soon." Li Ying typed while trying not to smile.

"Okay, I'll try." Wang Xianlan did not doubt him and tried to silently say "Li Ying" in her mind.

For some reason, Wang Xianlan's anxious heart suddenly calmed down.

It was as if Li Ying was right beside her bed, gently coaxing her to sleep.

soon.

Wang Xianlan fell into a deep sleep.

When Li Ying saw that Wang Xianlan did not send any more messages, he fell into a deep sleep.

This is the benefit given to Li Ying by the career panel.

On January 1, the first thing Li Ying did after getting up was to go to the hotel for breakfast.

This hotel is the top and most exclusive luxury hotel in Friedrichshafen.

Li Ying and Chen Daqian met Wang Xianlan at the elevator door.

Chen Daqian greeted Hou Bingguang, and Wang Xianlan looked at Li Ying excitedly.

It was as if he was telling Li Ying that the method Li Ying mentioned last night was particularly effective.

Li Ying: “…”

Take the elevator to the restaurant floor. When you walk in, you will see a wide variety of local delicacies and European delicacies. In addition, there are also delicacies from all over the world.

Because almost all table tennis players from other countries also book this hotel.

There were men's singles and doubles matches today, and Li Ying felt that he would consume more energy, so he ate more for breakfast. Chen Daqian and Wang Xianlan were not surprised by this, but Hou Bingguang was surprised.

"Aying, do you always eat so much for breakfast?"

Hou Bingguang said in shock as he looked at the mountain of plates in front of Li Ying.

"Coach Hou, this is still considered a small amount. Foreign food is still not as good as the domestic food. I'm not used to it." Li Ying patted his full stomach and took a big sip of milk.

Hou Bingguang: “???”

After eating and drinking, we headed straight to the stadium for the competition.

At 10 a.m. local time, the first round of the men's singles competition officially began.

Li Ying didn't pay attention at first, but later found that there were staff from Channel C at the scene of the competition, and they brought a full set of equipment.

Seeing this scene, Li Ying and Chen Daqian jokingly said, "Brother Qian, will Channel C broadcast this open tournament?"

After all, the Denmark Open is equivalent to a two-star open tournament of the ITTF. In terms of competition status and influence, it is naturally not as good as those three-star open tournaments.

The so-called three-star open tournaments refer to the Qatar Open, German Open, etc.

Above three stars are four-star open tournaments, such as the twice-a-year Xiaguo Open, the Korea Open, and the Ryuo Open, which can barely be considered three and a half stars.

"I heard that the competition will only be recorded and broadcasted in the early stages, but after the quarterfinals, it may be broadcast live. It can be seen that Channel C attaches great importance to you, Linlongfenggui!" Chen Daqian could also feel this.

After all, they didn't have such treatment in their era.

Of course, Chen Daqian was not envious or jealous.

Because the unicorn, dragon, phoenix and turtle are the hope of the new generation of Xia country's national table tennis team and the core of the next generation.

In this case, it is very normal for Xiaguo Channel C to support it so vigorously.

After all, in Xia Country, table tennis is the national sport.

Everyone loves it and everyone competes.

The draw for the Open is very methodical.

In the early stage, we avoided strong confrontations.

after all.

The organizers still want higher ratings later on.

In the first and second rounds of the men's singles, Li Ying swept his opponent 4-0 and suppressed his opponent's highest score, with no more than 4 points in a single game, demonstrating the absolute dominance of a 97-point Grand Slam-level table tennis superstar.

After Li Ying swept his opponent in the second round, he went to the next table to watch the game.

Liang Long fights Xu Guinian.

Seeing this scene, the one who couldn't bear to watch it the most was Qin Yucheng.

Because Liang Long and Xu Guinian were both his disciples.

But there is no way, since the draw is together, one of them will inevitably leave the men's singles competition.

finally.

Liang Long defeated Xu Guinian 4-2.

"Xu Guinian is still a little immature at the moment. After all, Liang Long is 21 years old this year, and Xu Guinian is only 19. However, Xu Guinian has a promising future, and his playing style determines that he will have a place in doubles and mixed doubles," Chen Daqian commented.

Although Xu Guinian was defeated, he did not seem particularly depressed.

Because of the result of the game, he had already anticipated it before the game even started.

Why is he ranked last among the unicorn, dragon, phoenix and turtle? All of this is not a random ranking by netizens.

"Brother Xu, don't cry, it's okay." Li Ying walked up to Xu Guinian with a smile and comforted him.

"You kid, you're probably secretly happy!" Xu Guinian saw through Li Ying's 'real purpose' at a glance.

"Now that your singles tournament is over, you can only focus on doubles. I'll take you flying, and try to win a doubles championship when you return home, so it won't be a wasted trip." Li Ying patted Xu Guinian's shoulder like an adult.

Xu Guinian hugged Li Ying and said, "Ah Ying, don't hide anything from me in the doubles match. When we meet Liang Long and Kong Fengge in the finals, beat them to death, okay?"

Anyway, in the national team, Liang Long and Kong Fengge can’t beat Xu Guinian, and as for Li Ying, he is even more of a loser.
