Table Tennis: Super Grand Slam

Chapter 150 Top Training System, Strength Rating List, Kong Fengge is the Biggest Unexpected Winner

at home.

It goes without saying how comfortable Li Ying's life is.

I slept until I woke up naturally, and when I woke up, my mother had already prepared dinner.

After Li Ying woke up.

I found that all the relatives had come.

Three uncles, four aunts, as well as uncles, cousins, and other family members from the same clan gathered together for a meal.

Rich has distant relatives in the mountains.

Not to mention, the current Li family is completely different from before because of Li Ying.

Even after eating and drinking enough, Li Ying still insisted on not drinking alcohol, because drinking is harmful to the body. As a professional table tennis player, although Li Ying does not abstain from food, he is strict with himself and never drinks.

After dinner, we gathered together to play cards.

A whole day of happy time passed quickly!
night.

Most of the relatives had left, and some relatives and brothers stayed to play, but Li Ying refused to stay with them.

"Dad, you are so thoughtful that you even built a table tennis room."

This is a steel frame shed as the main building next to Li Ying’s villa. Li Ying had not noticed it before.

It was not until the evening when Li Zhenguo brought Li Ying here that they discovered there were many ping-pong tables.

"Aying, you are a table tennis player, so you can't slack off in training after you go home. Otherwise, the national team coaching staff won't let you go home more often. And if you can train at home, then training anywhere is not training."

Hear this.

Li Ying didn't say anything.

My father has a simple mind. He doesn't ask for great achievements from his son, he just hopes that he can come home more often.

"We played all day today, so let's train tonight!"

This large table tennis room is fully equipped with various training equipment.

Li Ying couldn't help but ask curiously, "Dad, where did you know about these training facilities?"

"I don't understand, but I'll call your head coach and ask." Li Zhenguo said with a smile.

"No wonder you asked Brother Qian." Li Ying smiled, "These training equipment are what I like to use often."

The training facilities are really complete, even including strength training.

soon.

The Slovenia Open starts on January 1th.

Li Ying lay comfortably on the sofa, watching the 85-inch large LCD TV at home. On both sides, his younger brothers and sisters served him. Of course, Li Ying needed to pay the two little ones some labor fees.

Even for ordinary open tournaments, the table tennis channel of Channel C will broadcast the entire event live.

In this case.

The ratings of the table tennis channel are pretty good.

But right now.

But someone arrived outside Li Ying's house, exhausted.

Li Ying walked out of the house only when he heard someone calling "Chen Daqian's" name.

"Brother Qian, why are you here?"

Chen Daqian just got out of the taxi.

Li Ying was surprised.

"What, can't I come?"

Chen Daqian smiled.

"Quick, come inside."

Li Ying picked up Chen Daqian's suitcase and hurriedly welcomed Chen Daqian into the house.

Walking into Li Ying’s home, a luxurious villa in the countryside.

Chen Daqian looked around.

"You guys can also decorate this rural mansion!"

Chen Daqian smiled.

"This is all thanks to Aying. He earns money outside while we enjoy life at home." Ying Shimei naturally knew Chen Daqian, because for many girls of their generation, Chen Daqian was their dream man.

after all.

In terms of age, Chen Daqian and Xiao Li Ying are only a few years older than their parents.

At this moment.

Watching the live broadcast of the open tournament on CCTV Table Tennis Channel on TV.

Chen Daqian sat on the sofa.

"Aying, Xu Guinian and Kong Fengge performed very well this time!"

Chen Daqian smiled.

"I know that Kong Fengge is getting better and better. But I didn't expect that Xu Guinian would also get angry this time!" Li Ying said with a smile.

Although at home, Li Ying is always paying attention to every move in the international table tennis world.

and.

Everyone in the family bought a computer and installed an Internet cable.

In this case.

Even when Li Ying is at home, he can know what is happening in the world through the Internet.

"Ma Qing is gradually returning to his peak. I can see that!" Chen Daqian said with a smile.

at this time.

Li Ying made tea for Chen Daqian.

"Brother Qian, Brother Ma must make a mad effort this year. Otherwise, if it is delayed until 2013, when he will be 33 years old, it will be even more difficult for him to win the men's singles championship in the World Table Tennis Championships!"

Li Ying smiled.

This year's Rotterdam World Table Tennis Championships is a single event world table tennis championship.

Li Ying was the first to get the singles qualification ticket.

But for now.

None of the other members of the national table tennis men's team have obtained a ticket yet!

As for Monri, he won the championship in the first stage and took the lead.

but.

Whether you can get a singles ticket or not, that will require the second stage.

"Anyway, the proposals given by the men's and women's teams are fair and just. As for the details, we still have to rely on our strength!"

“女乒要历经七次选拔，第一次直通（1月6日——8日），斯洛文尼亚公开赛（1月18-22日），英国公开赛（1月26-30日）、卡塔尔公开赛（2月9日—13日），阿联酋公开赛（2月15-19日），德国公开赛（2月23——27日），第二次直通（3月3日——10日）。”

"Only those who have qualified for singles (win two championships) in the seven trials will not participate in the subsequent competitions."

Li Ying smiled and said: "According to the selection method of the women's table tennis team, in the two direct qualifying tournaments in Rotterdam and the five open tournaments in Slovenia, Britain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Germany, any player who wins two championships will directly qualify for the singles competition of the World Table Tennis Championships in Rotterdam in May this year."

"Winning a championship will directly earn you a place in the competition. This means that at most three singles qualifications can be selected in the next competition. All the main players in these seven competitions will participate!"

"Wang Xianlan even complained to me, thinking that I had directly obtained the singles qualification ticket from the men's coaching staff. That was simply because she didn't like me!"

After hearing this, Chen Daqian burst into laughter.

"Aying, I think you should participate in more open tournaments this year."

At this moment, Chen Daqian suddenly said seriously.

"Brother Qian, what do you say?" Li Ying asked in a serious tone.

"The ITTF will include the finals at the end of this year into the Olympic qualifying tournament. To participate in the ITTF finals at the end of this year, you must participate in more open tournaments."

"Moreover, according to what we know from the Chinese table tennis team, the strength of foreign table tennis superstars and table tennis leaders from Formosa, Hong Kong and Macao has improved very quickly during this period!"

Chen Daqian said in a deep voice.

"Could it be that the news on the Internet is just hearsay?" Li Ying said with a smile.

"What news?" Chen Daqian asked with a smile.

"Someone on the Internet revealed that recently, foreign table tennis associations have spent a lot of money to introduce a high-tech training system!"

"It's probably that through high-definition cameras and well-tuned software, any trajectory of a table tennis player can be accurately captured."

"This will be very helpful for table tennis superstars to practice various table tennis skills."

“Moreover, I heard that this training system can accurately assess the true strength of each table tennis player.”

"And, rate each table tennis superstar out of 100."

After Li Ying finished speaking, Chen Daqian was stunned.

"Where did you get this information?" Chen Daqian guaranteed that even the national team had not received such specific information.

"A die-hard fan in my fan group told me this, and it's absolutely true. Also, this strength rating is very interesting."

Li Ying took out his mobile phone and found the strength score list.

Immediately.

Chen Daqian saw the specific strength scores of the world's top table tennis stars. Kong Fengge, 99 points.

Ma Qing, 98.9 points.

Zhao Dongyuan, Qian Zhongtian, and Sun Guanqing, 98.8 points.

Thiem, Dimitri, Truth, and Tomoaki Furukawa, 98.7 points.

Li Ying, 98.6 points.

When Chen Daqian saw this list, he found it extremely absurd.

"A Ying, this is purely a random ranking. How could your strength be lower than Kong Fengge and Ma Qing? Besides, can Ma Qing get such a high score now?"

Chen Daqian didn't believe it at all.

but.

Li Ying believed it.

Because Li Ying’s score on the professional panel is 98.6.

of course.

Li Ying's true strength is more than that, because so far, Li Ying has not added the 0.2 points of the World Cup Men's Singles Championship and the Asian Games Men's Singles Championship.

In other words.

According to this system, Li Ying's strength score is completely correct.

and.

The reason why Li Ying was so sure of it was because on the career panel, Li Ying checked the current strength of people like Kong Fengge, Ma Qing, Zhao Dongyuan, Tim, and Dimitri, and the strength scores were exactly the same as what was displayed above.

"That is to say, the rapid improvement in the strength of foreign superstars began after the ITTF World Tour Finals. No one from our Xiaguo national table tennis team participated in the finals, but foreign superstars seemed to have transformed in the finals."

Li Ying smiled.

"Now it seems that our Xia country's national table tennis team must introduce this training system!" Chen Daqian said in a deep voice.

Li Ying shook his head slightly.

"This training system comes from America, but it may not be available for purchase!" Li Ying said with a smile.

Chen Daqian arrived and accompanied Li Ying in training every day.

In this case.

Soon it was the final day of the Slovenian Open.

"I didn't expect that the men's singles final would be between Xu Guinian and Ma Qing. Kong Fengge was actually blocked from the semi-finals by Ma Qing." Li Ying said in shock.

"This time, Xu Guinian has indeed defeated many good players in succession. He eliminated Tomoaki Furukawa in the first round, and also defeated Truss and Liang Long in succession. Now facing Ma Qing in the final, I think he has a great chance of winning the men's singles championship!" Chen Daqian said with a smile.

Li Ying nodded.

finally.

Men's singles final.

Xu Guinian defeated Ma Qing.

Became the men's singles champion.

In the men's doubles final that took place earlier, Xu Guinian and Liang Long lost to the combination of Mengli/Kong Fengge.

In this case.

The men's doubles champion was won by Meng Li and Kong Fengge.

then.

Li Ying's family celebrates the New Year in advance.

then.

Li Ying followed Chen Daqian and embarked on the journey.

On January 1, Li Ying and Chen Daqian arrived in Sheffield, England.

The British Open is held here.

After checking in and entering the room, Li Ying lay on the bed, exhausted from the long journey!
I lay down for a while before getting up, taking a shower and changing clothes.

"Brother Qian, this time, there are only me, Ma Qing, Su Yan and Kong Fengge participating in the British Open. Liang Long and Meng Li did not participate. They must have returned home for the New Year!"

Li Ying smiled.

"The four of you are enough, and then you will partner with Kong Fengge, and Ma Qing and Su Yan will continue to partner up as old partners to compete in men's doubles." Chen Daqian said with a smile.

“All the top foreign superstars are here!”

The British Open is also star-studded.

"Nowadays, no table tennis player wants to miss any open tournament. Especially the open tournaments you don't participate in, you will be the center of attention!" Chen Daqian said with a smile.

That's the case.

Then Li Ying will just add some points first.

Suddenly.

Li Ying added 0.1 points of the World Cup men's singles champion professional panel reward and 0.1 points of the Asian Games table tennis men's singles champion to the total score.

All of a sudden.

Li Ying's strength score increased from 98.6 to 98.8.

Li Ying immediately pondered in his mind.

"In this case, only if we win the men's singles championship of the World Table Tennis Championships and the men's singles championship of the World Cup this year can we raise our strength score to 99 points by the end of this year. Only then will we have a chance to defeat Kong Fengge in the 2012 London Olympics!"

Although the competition for the singles spot between Kong Fengge and Meng Li is still going on, in his heart, Li Ying thinks that Kong Fengge will most likely win.

But he is not the head coach of the men's team Dong Yaobang, nor is he the head coach of the national team. Before the list is announced, everything is subject to change.

even.

If he doesn't perform well, the Xiaguo national table tennis team may also send out Kong Fengge and Meng Li.

Li Ying will never forget.

in the past.

Ma Long defeated Wang Hao in the 2010 Asian Games, won the men's singles championship, and officially took over the banner of the leader of the national table tennis team.

but.

In the 2012 London Olympics, Ma Long did not qualify for the singles competition.

In other words.

In the national table tennis team, strength is often not the most important factor.

of course.

If these foreign table tennis superstars all perform very well, it can be said that Li Ying's position will be more stable.

after all.

The Xiaguo national table tennis team needs Li Ying to play and win the championship for the national table tennis team.

But if Xia Kingdom is truly the only dominant country, then to be honest, Li Ying's importance is not that important, because anyone sent out can win the championship anyway.

But now.

The Xiaguo national table tennis team cannot do without Li Ying.

if not.

That is simply not enough to shock the world's heroes.

At the Slovenia Open, Xu Guinian's performance can be said to be explosive.

On January 1, the 29 ITTF Tour British Open main competition kicked off.

No one expected it.

Even Li Ying could never have expected it.

Kong Fengge, who was considered to be the strongest opponent in this open tournament, created the biggest upset.

The other Xia country players all won and advanced.

Li Ying, Su Yan and Ma Qing passed two levels in a row in the men's singles and entered the top 16.

However, Kong Fengge was eliminated in the second round, losing to a table tennis player ranked 138th in the world.

Six Chinese women's singles players passed two rounds in a row, and two pairs of men's doubles and three pairs of women's doubles also successfully passed the first round.

After losing the game, Li Ying came to Kong Fengge's side first.

at this time.

Seeing Li Ying, Kong Fengge could only smile bitterly.

"I thought you would be my opponent in this men's singles tournament. But I didn't expect you to..."

Li Ying didn't know what to say.

Kong Fengge, whose strength score reached 99 points, was actually defeated by a table tennis player ranked 138th in the world.

Kong Fengge smiled bitterly and said, "Hey, I don't even know how I lost."

I lost without knowing why.

But now that the singles competition has stopped in the second round, Kong Fengge can do nothing about it.
