Table Tennis: Super Grand Slam

Chapter 138 Wang Xianlan is established as the leader of the women's table tennis team, and the 2010 Table Tennis Super League begins

then.

When the men's team head coach Dong Yaobang led the national table tennis team back to the training base, he was shocked to see Li Ying training.

Saw this scene.

It brought an extremely strong shock to the hearts of the national table tennis players Kong Fengge, Liang Long, Meng Li and Xu Guinian.

At this moment.

Xu Guinian squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, an expression of great pain.

"Aying, can you please be a human being?"

this moment.

Xu Guinian truly experienced what despair was.

A teammate who is more talented than you but works harder than you is now right in front of you.

At this moment.

Xu Guinian didn’t know how he could defeat Li Ying in this life.
Work harder than Li Ying?

Li Ying was originally the curling champion of the national table tennis team.

Compare your talent with Li Ying?

Looking at the entire history of Chinese table tennis and even the history of global table tennis, there has never been any table tennis player with more talent than Li Ying.

Although Zhao Dongyuan, Qian Zhongtian and Sun Guanqing are known as the ultimate table tennis geniuses.

but.

Compared with their talent, Xu Guinian felt that he was not inferior to them at all.

but.

Seeing that Li Ying had just finished the game and did not rest at all and directly plunged into training, at this moment, it was not just Xu Guinian.

Even Kong Fengge, Liang Long and Meng Li's mentality was about to collapse.

Saw this scene.

Even the men's team head coach Dong Yaobang was shocked.

because.

Li Ying's head coach Chen Daqian was already very self-disciplined.

But now looking at Li Ying, he is even more self-disciplined and hardworking than Chen Daqian.

In this case.

If you want to find an opportunity to teach Li Ying a lesson, there is no chance at all.

Right now.

Li Ying looked up.

A smile appeared on his face.

"Brother Xu, you don't understand this. I was training hard, this is clearly a show. I was acting in front of the head coach on purpose. I was just afraid that the head coach would dismiss my captain."

Li Ying explained it this way deliberately.

"A Ying, you better stop talking. How can a smokescreen like yours fool us? If you don't work hard normally, then your explanation would be reasonable. But you are clearly deliberately trying to deceive us!"

At this moment, Kong Fengge didn't really want to complain about Li Ying, but he couldn't help it.

Li Ying: “???”

"Okay, let's disband. Go take a rest first. There will be no training for the time being."

The men's team head coach Dong Yaobang said with a smile.

but.

Although the main group was disbanded, Chen Daqian still stayed at the ping-pong table.

"Brother Qian, why don't you go and rest? Don't you need to adjust to the jet lag?"

Li Ying smiled.

"I'm not an athlete, I don't need to deal with jet lag."

Chen Daqian smiled.

soon.

The women's team.

The original head coach resigned.

Head coach Hou Bingguang took office as the new head coach of the women's team.

In this case.

Dong Yaobang and Hou Bingguang, the twin stars of the Xia Guo national table tennis team, are now in charge of the men's and women's teams respectively.

then.

The women's team officially announced that Wang Xianlan was confirmed as the leader of the women's table tennis team. In this way, in an era when the great king of women's table tennis is gradually retiring, Wang Xianlan will take up the banner of the new generation of women's table tennis team.

then.

The women's table tennis team announced that it would fully prepare for the London Olympics, and established a women's team lineup with Wang Xianlan as the core, and Ji Chuanxia and Qiao Yuning as the core players of the women's team.

It can be said.

The women's team has undergone a major change.

The new generation of young players Wang Xianlan and Qiao Yuning were directly promoted. In terms of age, Ji Chuanxia is slightly older than Wang Xianlan and Qiao Yuning.

In this case.

Li Ying was completely relieved.

The women's team's series of actions attracted media attention.

In this case.

The news media almost ignored the women's team's failure in Moscow.

Although the dream of winning nine consecutive championships was shattered, the women's table tennis team set sail again.

Wang Xianlan appeared at the women's team training base.

Officially perform the duties of a leading figure.

at this time.

Hou Bingguang talked to Wang Xianlan alone.

"Xianlan, now that you are the leader of the women's team, you must carry the banner of the women's team. If the women's team loses in the team competition again, you will be responsible for all the blame!"

At this time, Hou Bingguang spoke earnestly.

"Coach, I'm not afraid. I'm ready."

Wang Xianlan’s eyes were firm.

"That's fine. As a leader, you don't have much experience. In this regard, you can learn more from Li Ying of the men's team."

When Hou Bingguang said this, it was almost clear that he supported Wang Xianlan and Li Ying's relationship.

At least.

This shows that in Hou Bingguang's heart, he did not stop Wang Xianlan and Li Ying from falling in love.

only.

At present, both Li Ying and Wang Xianlan have not yet achieved the Grand Slam and are still young.

The time came to June 2010.

对国乒来说，6月份最主要的比赛则是2010年夏国乒乓球俱乐部超级联赛于2010年6月9日开始。

This year, the landscape of the Table Tennis Super League has undergone earth-shaking changes.

because.

As the Table Tennis Super League becomes more and more popular year by year, more and more big capitals are favoring the clubs of the Table Tennis Super League.

In this case.

A lot of capital has poured into the Table Tennis Super League, even though there are still only nine clubs in the league today.

but.

The nine clubs are completely different from before.

Not only that.

With the strong entry of capital, the promotion of the Table Tennis Super League has naturally become a top priority.

"A Ying, the club is planning to bring in new players this year. Let me ask you, which table tennis superstar do you value the most?"

At this moment, Xu Guinian came over and asked.

As soon as these words came out.

Chen Daqian smiled and said, "This year's Table Tennis Super League is incredible. Many table tennis superstars from outside the world have applied to join. It can be said that it almost includes the top fifteen superstars in the world."

Li Ying smiled and said: "The Table Tennis Super League is getting more and more popular every year. It is normal to be attractive nowadays. I don't care. Anyway, no matter who joins, as long as you can win the men's doubles with him. Or, if you can guarantee at least a singles victory, it doesn't matter whether you join a superstar or not!"

As soon as these words came out.

Xu Guinian was speechless.

At this moment, Lin Wangyuan, who was standing aside, was very envious.

"Brother Ying, so far, no club in the Table Tennis Super League has invited me to join!"

Lin Wangyuan smiled.

"Although the table tennis Super League lineup is limited to five players at most, generally speaking, three players are enough. There are twelve main players in a team, plus there are so many foreign table tennis superstars to choose from. Indeed, the major table tennis Super League clubs rarely focus on the second team!"

Chen Daqian smiled. "Each club is in contact with the table tennis superstars. And if we assume that each team has three main players, then nine clubs can accommodate about 27 table tennis superstars. By then, it can be said that the stars are shining!"

Yu Xuejian also smiled enviously.

Like Lin Wangyuan, he has not had any clubs in the Table Tennis Super League turn their attention to them so far.

At most, after the three main players are determined, we will contact them and ask them to serve as substitutes for each club.

"As the commercialization of the Table Tennis Super League increases, sooner or later, the Table Tennis Super League may be out of the control of the national table tennis team and operate independently, just like other professional leagues, such as the NBA!" Li Ying said with a smile.

This is a big trend.

If the Table Tennis Super League eventually becomes more popular in Xia Country than the Xia Super League and the Xia Country Professional Basketball League, then the Table Tennis Super League will definitely seek independence and autonomy.

In this case.

At that time, there will be no need to give way to national team competitions or the ITTF Professional Tour.

Of course, the current Table Tennis Super League does not have this strength.

But as time goes by, if the Table Tennis Super League continues to become more and more popular, then one day in the future, this scene will definitely come true.

And to this.

Li Ying thought this was a good thing.

In this case.

For table tennis players, this now provides them with an alternative way out. They no longer have to aspire to join the provincial or national team in order to succeed.

In the Table Tennis Super League, you can also stand out.

then.

Maybe if he performs well in the Table Tennis Super League, he will eventually be selected for the national team.

Of course, this is just a fantasy about the future Table Tennis Super League.

At present.

The Table Tennis Super League is still under the control of the Table Tennis Association.

With the opening day of the Table Tennis Super League approaching.

finally.

Sun Guanqing joined the Shanghai team where Li Ying and Xu Guinian were.

Players like Zhao Dongyuan, Qian Zhongtian, Thiem, Truss, Dimitri, Furukawa Tomoaki and others have all joined the Table Tennis Super League clubs.

In this case.

It has further promoted the globalization of the Table Tennis Super League.

soon.

Li Ying and Xu Guinian left the imperial capital and returned to the Magic City.

Preparing for the Table Tennis Super League in Shanghai.

First of all.

Guanleyuan Club held a grand welcome ceremony for the new member Sun Guanqing.

then.

The other two table tennis players of Guanleyuan are from the Magic City team.

It is clear.

In the Table Tennis Super League, local forces are inevitable.

after all.

The professional league club needs the support of the Magic City team.

The main players are Li Ying, Xu Guinian and Sun Guanqing.

Although Sun Guanqing is now the leader of the Baodao team, he is a real Xia citizen. Moreover, after joining the Baodao team, his nationality is still Xia.

and so.

With the joining of Sun Guanqing, he not only needs to train his singles skills, but also partner with Xu Guinian in doubles.

at the same time.

The other eight clubs are also preparing for battle.

The coach of the Guanleyuan team is Deng Lixun, whom Li Ying is familiar with.

now.

In the conference room.

Deng Lixun used PPT to standardize the main lineups of each team.

"As for the Xichuan team, the main players are Dou Yang, Liu Geng and Su Yan. The three members of the national team's first team are gathered together!"

"As for the Luneng team, the leader is naturally Kong Fengge. In addition, there is Fang Bo. Among them, Zhao Dongyuan has joined them. In this way, the Luneng team has also gathered the Big Three!"

"As for the Bayi team, it is still led by Meng Li, and there is also Zhou Yu from the national team. In addition, Yan An has also joined!"

"At the same time, clubs led by Ma Qing and Liang Long have foreign table tennis superstars joining them. It can be said that every club has at least three superstars as the main players."

"So, if our club wants to defend the title this year, it will be very difficult!"

"As for the competition system, it is the same as last year. In the first stage, the nine participating clubs will play a home and away double round-robin match. The ranking of the round-robin match will serve as the basis for grouping, sorting and determining the home field in the second stage."

"In the first phase, each club will play 8 home games and 8 away games, totaling rounds."

"In the first stage, the clubs ranked 1st to 4th and the clubs ranked 6th to 9th will form the championship group and the relegation group respectively."

"Clubs that finish fifth in the first stage will no longer participate in the second stage. The club's ranking in the first stage will be the final ranking of the season."

Having said that, Deng Lixun paused for a moment and looked at the five team members.

"Although we, Shanghai Crown Paradise, have won the Table Tennis Super League team championship in the past two years, this year is very important for us. Whether Shanghai Crown Paradise can become the dynasty club of the Table Tennis Super League and achieve the dynasty hegemony of three consecutive championships depends on this one move!"

Deng Lixun's words aroused the enthusiasm of Xu Guinian, Sun Guanqing and two other players from the Shanghai local city team.

Li Ying, on the other hand, has always had a calm mindset.

After taking the chicken blood, Deng Lixun felt that it was very effective.

soon.

Coming August 6th.

After the opening of the Table Tennis Super League.

this day.

Magic City Crown Paradise went to Jiangnan Province.

Because in the first round, the Magic City team is playing away.

In terms of lineup, Li Ying will play as the first singles player.

Li Ying does not participate in doubles, but can play in two games at most in singles.

then.

For doubles, it is Xu Guinian and Sun Guanqing.

There is also a singles match, with Xu Guinian and Sun Guanqing appearing respectively.

In this case.

Victory is almost guaranteed.

Seeing this deployment, Sun Guanqing said with a smile: "Brother Xu, it seems that in the national team, you dragons, phoenixes and turtles lie flat like this!"

Hear this.

Xu Guinian was very angry.

"What do you mean by us, the dragon, phoenix and turtle, lying flat? Without us, can Li Ying win the team championship alone?"

Lies are not scary, the truth is hurtful. Xu Guinian was hit in the sore spot by Sun Guanqing's words.

“Humph, follow Brother Ying, even if the three of us can kill a lot, we may not need you dragon, phoenix and turtle!”

Whenever he mentions this, even though he is now the leader of the Formosa Team, Sun Guanqing will always have the desire to join the national team.

but.

The national team is currently overcrowded.

Unless something unexpected happens, it will be impossible to continue adding more people.

unless.

The dragon and phoenix turtles are particularly useless.

but.

This is impossible.

Hearing this, Li Ying was very satisfied.

"Brother Xu, look at how sensible Xiao Sun is. He keeps calling me Brother Ying. You three are particularly ignorant in this regard!"

Although Sun Guanqing is older than Li Ying in terms of age, ever since he came to the Magic City Guanleyuan team, Sun Guanqing has always called Li Ying "Brother Ying".

"Humph, if the three of us don't call you Brother Ying, that's our last bit of stubbornness!"

Xu Guinian snorted coldly.

"Okay, very good. Sooner or later, I will make you three call me Brother Ying!" Li Ying also made a harsh statement.

"Okay, Aying, come on stage!"

Deng Lixun laughed.

Li Ying came on stage immediately.
