Table Tennis: Super Grand Slam

Chapter 111 The National Games is coming!
"A Ying, Brother Ying!"

Right now.

Li Ying suddenly heard someone calling him Brother Ying.

"Brother Jian, Ayuan, you're here!"

The people who came were national team teammates Yu Xuejian and Lin Wangyuan.

"Aying, congratulations on defending the Table Tennis Super League championship!" Yu Xuejian congratulated.

After this was said, Li Ying laughed and said, "Brother Jian, we can just talk about this in private. If you say it in front of Brother Ma, isn't that a slap in the face of Brother Ma?"

The club that Ma Qing plays for failed to reach the finals of the Table Tennis Super League this year.

Ever since Ma Qing's legend in the Table Tennis Super League was broken by Li Ying, the Table Tennis Super League in the past two years has been dominated by Magic City Crown Paradise.

Precisely.

Ever since Li Ying joined the Table Tennis Super League, Ma Qing’s legendary brilliance has ceased to shine.

Li Ying's words made the whole audience laugh.

Seeing that the men's team of Lingnan is now strong and powerful, Meng Enming also feels ambitious.

"With the four of you on our Lingnan team this year, we can say that we are not afraid of any provincial or municipal team in the country. Our Lingnan provincial team will definitely win the National Games team championship!"

For Meng Enming, the greatest success of his coaching of the Lingnan team was leading the Lingnan team to win the men's table tennis team championship at the National Games.

As for the men's singles championship, if nothing unexpected happens, Li Ying will still be the most favorable competitor.

"For the men's doubles in this National Games table tennis competition, our Lingnan team has decided to register two pairs of combinations. Li Ying/Ma Qing, Yu Xuejian/Lin Wangyuan. I hope you can meet in the final." Meng Enming said with a smile.

This men's doubles lineup was not signed up by the athletes themselves. It was obviously a consideration of the Lingnan team's top management.

The combination of Li Ying and Ma Qing represents the Lingnan team's desire to win the men's doubles gold medal.

As for the men's doubles combination of Yu Xuejian and Lin Wangyuan, they are also capable of fighting.

"In addition, there is another event, which is mixed doubles. The contestants for mixed doubles are Li Ying and Wang Xianlan from the women's team."

Meng Enming smiled.

Li Ying knew this because the Lingnan team had communicated with him and Wang Xianlan in advance.

In this regard.

Li Ying and Wang Xianlan had no objection.

to this end.

Wang Xianlan didn't even sign up for the women's doubles.

because.

Li Ying analyzed this to Wang Xianlan.

Even if Wang Xianlan signs up for the women's doubles, she will not be able to beat the women's doubles teams from other provinces, especially the Imperial Capital team, the combination of the women's table tennis devil and Qiao Yuning.

It is clear.

The Imperial Capital team was anxious.

and so.

She even went so far as to persuade the big devil to participate in the women's doubles competition with Qiao Yuning.

The purpose is to give the Imperial Capital team another gold medal.

In this case, Wang Xianlan strategically gave up the women's doubles competition.

but.

When it comes to the women's team competition, Wang Xianlan will not give up.

Wang Xianlan will focus her main energy on women's singles and mixed doubles, and as for the women's team, see how far they can go.

Because the table tennis competitions at the National Games will be more brutal than the National Championships.

It can be said.

This is the highest stage for Xiaguo table tennis players to compete.

Because there has always been such a saying circulating in the Xiaguo national table tennis team.

It is easy to win the world championship, but it is difficult to win the national championship.

It is conceivable how difficult it is to compete in the National Games.

and.

Many dark horses emerge in the annual national table tennis championships.

Not to mention.

This era is an era that produces many table tennis talents.

After gathering, the Lingnan team began to prepare for the battle.

of course.

This is the men's team.

The women's team.

Wang Xianlan stayed in the Lingnan team for almost a day and was about to fly to the imperial capital.

because.

The Women's Table Tennis World Cup will be held before the opening ceremony of the National Games.

In other words.

Wang Xianlan is preparing for the World Cup.

Li Ying naturally went to the airport in Yangcheng to see Wang Xianlan off.

In the super VIP lounge, Wang Xianlan was in a bad mood.

"Xiaoying, I haven't even practiced mixed doubles with you yet."

This is the most regrettable thing in Wang Xianlan's heart.

"That's no big deal. With our strength, we can naturally sweep the mixed doubles. This month, your main task is to prepare for the Women's World Cup. Moreover, maybe you will be back soon!" Li Ying said with a smile.

"Will be back soon?" Wang Xianlan was puzzled.

Wang Xiqing couldn't bear to see his daughter acting so silly.

"The Women's Table Tennis World Cup will be held in Guangzhou!" Wang Xiqing couldn't help but remind.

As soon as these words came out.

Only then did Wang Xianlan understand why Li Ying and her father Wang Xiqing looked at her so strangely just now.

"Huh, I forgot."

Wang Xianlan said in a sweet and naive manner.

"Okay, you're right. Let's start boarding soon."

At this time, Li Ying heard the airport broadcast.

Li Ying was naturally relieved because Wang Xianlan had her parents by her side.

After watching Wang Xianlan leave, Li Ying also left the airport and returned to the Lingnan team training base.

The Lingnan team’s training base is very luxurious. It has an entire building and includes training, physical therapy, a canteen and dormitories.

As for the dormitories, the environment is no less than that of three-star or four-star hotels outside.

Li Ying also lives very comfortably.

and.

With Li Ying's current position in the Lingnan team, each person has a room.

Of course, it is not only Li Ying who enjoys such treatment and status, but also Ma Qing.

After all, Ma Qing is also a veteran of the Lingnan team.

Li Ying began his training career with the Lingnan provincial team.

As for the sparring partner, it is still Lin Wangyuan.

The guiding coach around me is Meng Enming.

Because Li Ying's head coach in the national team, Chen Daqian, is also the head coach of the Magic City team, Chen Daqian has been busy with the affairs of the Magic City team during this period.

According to the gossip conveyed by Xu Guinian, Li Ying knew that during this period, Chen Daqian was giving him inhumane and devilish special training.

I want Xu Guinian to make a splash at the National Games.

that's it.

Time passes day by day in training.

As some world championships or important international events in summer events conflict with or are close to the 15th National Games, the General Administration of Sport of China has decided to hold these events before the opening ceremony. There are 80 events and 22.1 sub-events in total, accounting for % of all sub-events.

Among them, table tennis is one of them.

September 9th to October 24nd is the competition time for the table tennis event of the 10th National Games.

and.

The venue of the competition is not in the capital of Ludong Province, but in the home of Lan Dao, the number one man in Lu Village.

Landao City Sports Center Gymnasium.

On September 9, the Lingnan provincial team took a chartered flight and flew directly to Landao in Lucun.

Arrive at Blue Island and check in at the hotel.

Meng Enming called the other members of the Lingnan team to Li Ying's room and held a brief meeting.

soon.

Ma Qing, Yu Xuejian and Lin Wangyuan from the Lingnan team all came to Li Ying's room.

"After much consideration by the provincial team coaching staff, it was finally decided that Yu Xuejian would follow Li Ying and Ma Qing as the three main players of the Lingnan team to compete in the men's table tennis competition of this National Games. But Wang Yuan, you can't slack off either. If any of them are not in good shape, you have to step up!"

First, Meng Enming conveyed the decision made collectively by the top leaders of the Lingnan provincial team.

Although Lin Wangyuan felt sorry, he was still young after all. "I respect the decision made by the coaching staff!" Lin Wangyuan said with a smile.

"Well, the format adopted for this men's team competition is different from last year's men's team competition at the national championships. It's the new Swethlin Cup format, and the doubles competition has been cancelled."

"In this case, the second singles player will be as important as the first singles player, because both players will play two games, and then the third singles player will play against the third singles player."

"For our Lingnan Provincial Team, the first singles player is Li Ying, the second singles player is Ma Qing, and the third singles player is Yu Xuejian."

"At present, the biggest threat to us is still the Bayi team. Because Kong Fengge is still in the Bayi team, then the Bayi team still has Mengli and Kong Fengge."

"Of course, the strength of other teams should not be underestimated, such as the Imperial Capital team, which has Liang Long and Fang Bo."

"In short, the opponents in each of the four groups, A, B, C, and D, are difficult to beat."

“But I believe that the final men’s team championship will belong to our Lingnan team.”

Meng Enming is very good at boosting morale.

"Now, feel free to say whatever you want to say!" Meng Enming said with a smile.

As soon as these words came out.

Ma Qing, Yu Xuejian and even Lin Wangyuan all looked at Li Ying.

"There is no doubt that the biggest threat to our Lingnan team and the most favorable contender for the men's team championship is none other than the Bayi team. Among them, they have Meng Li, Kong Fengge, and Zhou Yu, all members of the national table tennis team."

Li Ying said in a deep voice, "I am absolutely sure that no matter I play against Mengli or Kong Fengge, I can win by two points. The remaining point will be handed over to you, Brother Ma and Brother Jian!"

As soon as these words came out.

Yu Xuejian quickly expressed his opinion.

"I will do my best to fight Zhou Yu. Anyway, our three-man showdown will be in the third game."

Yu Xuejian patted his chest and made the promise.

Next, it’s Ma Qing’s turn.

Ma Qing said in a deep voice: "Recently, Kong Fengge's momentum of rising is indeed very strong. If I play against Kong Fengge, my chances of winning are not very high. But I promise that if I meet Meng Li, I will definitely show the state of the men's singles final of the 08 Olympics, and I will fight Meng Li to the death."

at the same time.

In the Bayi team.

They are also talking about their biggest opponent in this competition.

among them.

Wang Tao, the coach of the Bayi team, said solemnly: "There is no doubt that the Lingnan team, the men's team champion of last year's national championship, is still the biggest obstacle for us to win the championship."

"The Lingnan team has two strong players, Li Ying and Ma Qing. If nothing unexpected happens, the third singles player for the Lingnan team should be Yu Xuejian."

"The three-man showdown is a great one, Ayu, you have to defeat him. I feel like whether we can beat Lingnan depends entirely on you!"

As soon as these words came out.

Not only Wang Tao, but also Meng Li and Kong Fengge all looked at Zhou Yu.

As one of the three young masters of 92, Zhou Yu feels extremely pressured now.

But he stood up anyway.

"I will try my best."

I won’t say much else, because no matter how much I say, it will all be nonsense.

Then, Wang Tao looked at Meng Li and Kong Fengge.

He gave a helpless smile: "Although I don't want to admit it, given Li Ying's current state, it will be difficult for you two to defeat him. Then, the breakthrough point lies in Ma Qing."

As he spoke, Wang Tao's tone became more and more serious: "You must all defeat Ma Qing, only then will we have a chance to win. That's why I said the three singles are very important."

"After all, even if Li Ying takes away 2 points, the match is a best-of-five series. If we get the remaining 3 points, the victory will still belong to us!"

As soon as these words came out.

Meng Li and Kong Fengge both nodded heavily.

As for tactics, they are almost all clear.

In short.

The worst that could happen is that we would give up the two points that Li Ying gained from his appearance.

of course.

It’s not about giving up the game.

If we fight with Li Ying, it will naturally be a bloody fight.

and.

Both Meng Li and Kong Fengge wanted to defeat Li Ying very much.

They all want to achieve the achievement of defeating Li Ying for the first time.

9 month 23 number.

The teams participating in the men's team competition began to draw lots.

finally.

The Lingnan team, Bayi team, Didu team and others were placed in different groups.

after all.

According to the scores of the three provincial teams, it is impossible for them to be in the same group.

and.

The four groups ABCD will start a round-robin tournament, and in the end, only one team will make it out of the group.

Thus, they became the top four men's teams in this National Games.

And the games in the previous few days.

They are all boy bands.

After the team competition, there are mixed doubles and doubles.

The men's and women's singles competitions will begin after the mixed doubles and men's and women's doubles competitions are over.

then.

Players from each team came to the gym for training!
When Li Ying stepped into the gymnasium, the table tennis players who had arrived at the gymnasium for training first all looked towards the door in unison.

at this time.

It's like welcoming the king of table tennis.

Li Ying showed his signature smile, and then many table tennis players crowded in front of him.

Request Li Ying's autograph.

Li Ying naturally accepted everyone who came and was busy for almost half an hour before finally finishing.

Then, I started to train.

at this time.

Li Ying saw many familiar faces.

some of.

Naturally, this also includes Zhao Dongyuan from the Hong Kong team, Qian Zhongtian from the Macau team, and even Sun Guanqing from the Formosa team.

meet them.

Li Ying suddenly had a feeling.

Perhaps this time, the table tennis teams from these three places can bring surprises and changes to the team competition of this National Games.

and.

The Hong Kong team, the Macau team, and even the Formosa team all had representative stars before the three table tennis geniuses became leaders.

He is also a very strong player.

In terms of strength, they are almost comparable to the Chinese national table tennis team.

In short.

The men's team competition in the National Games is definitely a fierce competition.

Wait till September 9th!
The table tennis event of the 11th National Games officially started.

Although the National Games has not actually opened yet.

But Lu Village's No. 1 and No. 2 all came to the scene and held a grand ceremony.

of course.

The General Administration of Sport of China is the leader of the Table Tennis Association, so they were naturally present.

among them.

As a representative of the athletes, Li Ying went on stage to take the oath.

After going through the whole process, Li Ying felt more tired than playing a day's game.

then.

It’s time for the group round-robin stage of the team competition.

Because it was a best-of-five format and doubles were cancelled, Li Ying paid special attention to the conditions of Ma Qing and Yu Xuejian at this time.

because.

Even if he can guarantee 2 points in every game, if Ma Qing and Yu Xuejian are not good enough, Lingnan will lose.

In a team competition, every athlete in the team competes.

then.

Many times, Li Ying gave advice to Meng Enming.

In the fantasy space, Li Ying not only has to simulate his own game, but he also has to simulate the game for Ma Qing and Yu Xuejian, and then tell Ma Qing and Yu Xuejian the technical characteristics of the opponents they are going to face.

Yu Xuejian is the easiest to talk about, because the three singles positions in each team are fixed.
