It seemed that Mizutori Hato was chasing points, but both Wang Chao on the court and He Jingping watching the game were very calm.
Because both of them knew very well that they were at least 90% sure of winning this game.
Mizutori Hato's pursuit of points was just accidental. After all, the success rate of forcing a pick is only 50%, so it can only be regarded as a kind of fighting.
Ranked 8th in the world, being forced to start playing fighting ball shows that Mizutori Hato has lost confidence.
As for COSCO's stalemate capability, it is indeed Wang Chao's shortcoming, but who said it must be COSCO's stalemate?
The stalemate ball just now was just because Wang Chao temporarily missed the check and Mizutori Hato made a small calculation on the ball.
No one on the table tennis court can always make correct calculations. It is normal to make mistakes in judgment. As long as you ensure that you do not suffer losses in prediction and calculation, it will be fine.
What's more, Mizutori Hato is now older, has an injured waist, and looks like he's drunk too much. Even if Wang Chao takes the initiative to challenge him in a long-distance stalemate, how many balls can he have the physical strength to hit?
Unknowingly, the boy who was always bullied physically last year now started to suppress others physically.
The next situation confirmed the judgment of the master and the apprentice.
Mizutori Hato continues to serve with the hook.
Wang Chao is directly twisted into short backspin.
Mizutori Hato directly took the board and made a violent challenge, but committed suicide and the score became 4:2.
Wang Chao serves, still short backspin.
Mizutori Hato challenged again and committed suicide. The score became 5:2.
Wang Chao continues to send short backspin.
Mizutori Hato didn't dare to pick any more and chose to fight short. After five consecutive rounds, he still couldn't support the first step, so he was forced to change his moves and directly twist the backhand inside the table.
Wang Chao choose the mounting table to reverse twist.
This time the two played fastballs for seven consecutive rounds close to the table. There were many changes in both placement and spin, which reflected the extremely deep foundation and rich skills of both parties.
Then Mizutori Hato was defeated again. This time it was not because of his strength, but because his mental strength could not support such a high-intensity, high-tempo and high-change style of play.
6:2.
At this time, only eight balls had been played in the first game, but there was already a layer of dense sweat on Mizutori Hato's forehead.
He felt that his mind was a little confused, and he was confused from the bottom of his heart. He didn't understand how Wang Chao calculated the ball.
He didn't know that Wang Chao didn't count the ball at all.
The myriad changes in this entire set of play styles are actually within the all-encompassing technical and tactical system of He Jingping.
It can be said that it is only now that Number One Attacker in the World's powerful technical and tactical system, which He Jingping began to build seven years ago, has truly shined its due light in this world.
Luo Jiu's side does not count because he replaced his backhand with a flick. In fact, the entire tactical idea has changed.
Thirty-five minutes later, Mizutori Hato was eliminated by Wang Chao, with the final score being 4:1. The specific round scores are 11:4, 11:7, 11:2, 9:11, 11:1.
There are two points worth mentioning here.
First of all, Mizutori Hato's fighting spirit was really strong today. After being defeated by Wang Chao for three consecutive sets, he actually didn't collapse and started to fight back crazily. In the fourth game, he played like he was desperate and hit many incredibly high-quality offensive balls. Even luck was on his side. He hit the net five times and the edge twice. In the end, he was able to regain a game with difficulty by constantly creating accidents when his skills and tactics were completely crushed.
The second point is that Wang Chao actually wants to shave Mizutori Hato's head...
Not only because of Luo Jiu's instructions before the game, but also because in fact, Huaping had already issued a fatwa to Mizutori Hato ten years ago. This fatwa is still valid today. Any Huaping player who encounters Mizutori Hato in the international arena can be beaten to death. If they can score 11:0, the coaching staff will be rewarded. It is unclear what this reward is. Even this fatwa is just a rumor in the world and has not been published in written form. But there is no doubt that this thing is true.
It's a pity that Mizutori Hato is not an ordinary person. He is a world-class player. Even according to the internal rating of the Huaping coaching staff, he is also the best among the first-class players.
For this kind of person, Wang Chao was able to beat him 11:1, which actually shocked the world table tennis circles to the point of dislocating their jaws. As for the bald head, no one had ever thought about it.
Then the two warring parties shook hands and then exited. When shaking hands, Mizutori Hato acted like a mourning concubine, because he knew that after today's defeat, the days after going back would be really dire.
"No, I have to win an open championship to wash away the shame." Mizutori Hato secretly swore.
But at this time, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Wang Chao in front of him, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat, remembering an extremely serious matter.
This kid... has officially started competing in international competitions this year?
Before today's battle, Mizutori Hato would not have thought too much, but today's defeat made him truly realize how powerful Wang Chao is at this stage.
So many clues began to connect quickly in my mind.
He remembered that the day before yesterday, there was a clown-like Brazilian reporter who went around interviewing people, asking who was the scariest person, and finally put the entire interview process on a famous international forum.
Mizutori Hato had seen that interview and laughed out loud while watching it. He first scolded the Brazilian reporter for being a bad writer, and then scolded the Chinese players for not wanting Bilian and only choosing their own people, which was not sincere at all.
He dared to touch his conscience and swear that when he saw many people saying that Wang Chao was scary, he actually disagreed in his heart, because he felt that Wang Chao's unscrupulous style of play in T2 last year was really embarrassing and not at all impressive. As for winning the championship this year, there is no chance at all.
But now he suddenly realized that Xiao Fei and Lin Li chose Wang Chao in unison. Was it not arranged by the coaching staff, but sincerely?
Could it be that Wang Chao has already defeated them in the internal training of Huaping?
When you think about it this way, many things become scary.
For example, Huaping has a habit over the years. When sending people to compete in open competitions, they will definitely make a good match. Some are going to charge into the battle, some are going to win the championship from behind, some are going to become famous in a battle, and some are going to gain knowledge.
This time Hong Kong Open, Huaping sent a total of more than ten people to participate, and of course they maintained this matching pattern.
Mizutori Hato always felt that Lin Li and Xiao Fei were responsible for taking the lead and winning the championship, while Wang Chao and Lu Feiyang were responsible for charging into the battle, but now he suddenly felt that maybe Wang Chao was responsible for taking the lead?
The interview given by Xiao Fei and Lin Li was a naked attempt to create publicity.
Even in T2 last year, the Sakura Country Table Tennis Association created a wave of momentum for Wang Chao in disguise.
What does this mean?
It shows that the Huaping coaching staff is extremely optimistic about Wang Chao and wants him to reach the world ranking this year.
Since Wang Chao wants to climb the rankings, it is best to win the championship. Then, Wang Chao will definitely try to avoid Sun Tianlong and Luo Jiu in the events he chooses this year.
My good boy!
Mizutori Hato At this moment, my scalp felt numb and cold sweat broke out on my back.
Oh my god, it has been really hard for him to avoid Sun Tianlong these years. He doesn't play in any tournament that Sun Tianlong participates in, so he doesn't play many open tournaments every year, and he never goes to the year-end finals. Even the three majors, he plays with trepidation and trepidation.
But last year Luo Jiu completed the super evolution, and I accidentally offended Luo Jiu.
He figured it out, anyway, he couldn't beat Luo Jiu, so if he offended him, he would be offended. At most, he would not participate in the same event as Luo Jiu.
I don't have to worry about having too many debts, and I don't have to worry about having too many lice. I just put Luo Jiu and Sun Tianlong in the same position and hide them together.
But now...
Another Wang Chao?
I want to avoid Luo Jiu and Sun Tianlong, there are not many games to play.
You also need to avoid Luo Jiu and Sun Tianlong, as there are not many games you can play.
But, you damn happened to bump into me.
Mizutori Hato recalled the five-game battle that had just ended as quickly as possible, and once again confirmed in his heart: This guy is also someone I can't beat.
Moreover, this guy must have murderous intentions towards me. In the fifth game just now, he obviously came here to shave my head.
What to do?
Continue to evade tactically?
But if I keep hiding, I probably won't be able to play a single open tournament this year.
Mizutori Hato was in a daze at this moment, and his mood, which was already on the verge of collapse, was even worse. He originally wanted to win an open championship this year to ask for forgiveness from domestic anti-fans, but now it seems that the world is so big that he has no competition to play.
Either touch Sun Tianlong.
Either touch Luo Jiu.
Either touch Wang Chao.
Or... let me go to Europe and play club leagues?
