With such a world-famous final, naturally everyone wants to hear the post-match thoughts of both sides.
Player Pike still couldn't get out of his depression. He was wet from head to toe, and even the tips of his hair were covered with sweat. This was of course not because of his lack of physical strength, but because in the game just now, he experienced two consecutive forced outbursts and two falls from the peak. This overdrafted not only his physical strength, but also his energy, brainpower and willpower.
So he was very tired and his voice was lower during the interview. "I can only say that I really tried my best... I have never wanted to win as much as I did today. Really, I swear, I fought hard on the court with an unparalleled desire to win and did everything I could, but in the end I still lost."
At this point, his expression became even more painful. He took two quick breaths before suppressing his emotions and trying to keep his tone calm. "Although it may have disappointed the European fans, I want to say that maybe we overestimated ourselves before the game, especially in the quarterfinals. In fact, Huaping is still the same Huaping, and he is still as indestructible as before."
"Bayer, Michel and I, the three of us launched three attempts with all our strength, but in the end we all failed. But I know this is not the end, because the impact like today will continue in the future, until one day, we give birth to a truly great player and completely overthrow the dominance of Huaping."
He paused and glanced at Morad who was applauding not far away from the corner of his eyes. His heart moved and he added a sentence on the spur of the moment, "It's just like many years ago, generations of Chinese table tennis players attacked Old Wa."
Pike's interview is over here. What he said was all from his heart, and he didn't feel that he was wrong in anything. However, when the coaches of Huaping heard these words, they couldn't help but smile meaningfully.
Pike is right. Over the years, geniuses from all over the world have been attacking Huaping again and again, but don't forget, this is actually because there was Wang Wendong before Huaping and Sun Tianlong behind them. These two needles, one in front and one behind, have personally killed countless geniuses non-Chinese associations.
As for other Chinese table tennis players, they actually cannot withstand the impact, and it is normal for them to fall off.
So what Pike said today actually seemed a bit abrupt, because Sun Tianlong didn't come at all.
But Pike still said that, and he said it confidently, without any problem at all. He didn't even mention Wang Chao's name, but directly replaced it with the word Huaping.
That's because the familiar smell he felt when playing with Wang Chao was exactly the same as when he was beaten to death twice in a row by Sun Tianlong.
I feel that the opponent is as stable as a mountain, and I attack like crazy. I may score points, have bright spots, and have a faint hope in the middle, but in the end, I am still defeated by the opponent's unwavering stability.
If you lose too much this way, you will feel a sense of despair in your bones.
So what Pike finally said is that in the future there will be a player to break through the dominance of Huaping, not that he himself can break through the dominance of Huaping.
He no longer has confidence.
The previous Wang Chao did not give people this feeling. The previous Wang Chao was too ruthless, so it gave the opponent two extreme feelings. Either it made people completely unconvinced and felt that Wang Chao was all a conspiracy.
Either make the other party completely convinced or suffer a psychological shadow directly.
This time he can make Pike have the illusion of playing Sun Tianlong, which shows how kingly the game was.
What made the coaches even happier was that it was obvious that Pike was half dead.
This super-class player non-Chinese associations, who has just been included in the list of key observations and targets by the Chinese coaching staff, although his head was not shaved in the last game, was still successfully shaken psychologically.
He is probably the unluckiest of all the super-class players in history who have completed super-evolution.
He really never had a good day.
First, he was beaten to death twice by Sun Tianlong. This time, he finally worked up the courage with the encouragement of the coaches. Taking advantage of Sun Tianlong's absence, he planned to take the most important step in his career.
Once you step out, the sea and the sky will be brighter, your confidence will grow a hundredfold, and it may be really hard to stop in the future.
But in the end, he was shot to death by Wang Chao.
Sometimes the success or failure of an athlete's life depends on one game. If you win this game, you will be invincible, and if you lose, you will be bullshit. It is a pity that Pike did not win the most important turning point in his career.
How pitiful, he is just a child...
Oh no, it should be said that he is just a young player from the new generation. He has never experienced such a big scene before.
Pike's mind should be full of confusion now. He can no longer accurately define his position in the table tennis world.
Am I super?
Am I the new king of Europe?
Am I?
But I have never defeated a Chinese table tennis player once in my life.
How about... I can try again at the next stop?
Anyone who fails will be eager to try again and again, but if he really goes to the next stop, then I guess the big guys will laugh until their stomachs hurt.
Because the next open tournament will be held in Tianfu City, China, which is Platinum leg with the highest gold content this year. And because of Wang Chao's outstanding performance in the cake sharing meeting a few days ago, He Jingping's disciple Luo Jiu successfully grabbed the right to compete in this tournament.
In other words, Pike will either perform abnormally and be eliminated early, or he will definitely encounter Luo Jiu.
What is the current status of Luo Jiu?
Ever since he killed Sun Tianlong in last year's year-end finals, he has been playing like crazy during this period. Even in the team training, he was full of murderous intent, destroying whoever he saw. It can be said that he is the most important high-explosive bomb in the Huaping team today. He wants to shave the opponent's head anytime and anywhere. His fighting spirit is unprecedented.
If he meets Pike, if nothing unexpected happens, he can beat the shit out of Pike.
If he poses after the beating and says something weird like "God had not given birth to me, Luo Xiaojiu", Pike will become autistic.
In this way, Pike can accomplish two unprecedented feats.
First, continue to refresh his record of losing all the Chinese table tennis players after his super evolution.
Secondly, he died tragically three times in a row at the hands of three different Huaping players.
Then, it is really difficult to calculate the area of Pike's psychological shadow. This generation of England's genius is almost useless by now.
As the largest table tennis organization in the world, Huaping will naturally not act as extreme as last year when Wang Chao played Lin Zijun, wiping out people at every turn. However, if the opponent's mental quality is not good enough and their luck is so bad, and they are naturally destroyed, then they naturally have no obligation to deliberately let the ball heal the opponent's injuries.
Next it was Wang Chao's turn to speak.
Wang Chao's words seemed to have no nutrition. He said, "In today's game, both sides played at a high level. The Pike players are very strong. I won very thrillingly, mainly because of good luck. Then, thank you to the organizer, thank you to International Table Tennis Federation, thank you to the Hong Kong Table Tennis Association, thank you to my coach Mr. He Jingping and our head coach of Huaping, Mr. Cai Guodong."
These words were so official that fans in Europe generally felt very unhappy, because it meant that Wang Chao was too calm after playing the final.
Why calm? Naturally, the pressure from the opponent is not strong enough.
Hong Kong Open ends here.
Wang Chao returned to the hotel. As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he felt his phone vibrating in his trouser pocket. When he opened it, he saw a message from Fan Xiaoxian: "Can you come back tomorrow morning? I'll call you back soon, hurry!!!"
The last three consecutive exclamation marks with bloody special effects were obviously only available to Little Penguin annual members. Wang Chao was so frightened that he quickly called the phone to find out what was going on.
It turns out there is a Table Tennis Super League game to be played tomorrow morning.
In fact, Table Tennis Super League started this year on February 13th. Strictly speaking, it was one day earlier than the draw ceremony for Hong Kong Open. However, because Wang Chao was going to play in the World Series, Fan Xiaoxian always refrained from contacting Wang Chao for fear of affecting his performance.
So on February 13th, Spade Q sent out a new lineup of Geng Shuai single, Wu Li second single, and Lu Jia triple single to welcome the top Table Tennis Super League team "Fire Phoenix Club" who came all the way from Shanghai.
As a reminder, Magic City Fire Phoenix was the overall champion of last year's Super League, and Bai Feng, a single player in the team, was the annual mvp of last year's Table Tennis Super League.
Spade Q lost miserably in this game. Although Fire Phoenix Club's second single, Zou Zhengyu, was absent, he still easily kept a clean sheet against Spade Q.
The so-called perfect zero-block means that the opponent's first single has zero-blocked our first single, the opponent's second single has zero-blocked our second single, and the opponent's doubles has zero-blocked our doubles.
Halfway through the game, the audience in Jiangcheng City Sequoia Stadium was reduced by half. The deeper the feelings for Spade Q were among the old fans, the more they couldn't bear to see Spade Q being tortured like this.
After the game, the outside public opinion was abuzz, everyone said that Spade Q showed his underwear as soon as he entered Table Tennis Super League, so he was only qualified to bully small fish and shrimps in Table Tennis First Division.
There are also industry insiders who have written a long article of 10,000 words to analyze in detail the overall situation of the Spade Q teams playing Table Tennis Super League this year. After analyzing each team one by one, the final conclusion is that they are extremely unfavorable and are expected to be at the bottom.
There are two reasons.
First, Wang Chao's focus this year is definitely the World Series. After all, it is obvious to all that the national team's coaching staff attaches great importance to Wang Chao.
Therefore, Wang Chao will miss Super League for quite a few games. Once he leaves, based on the content of last year's games, Spade Q lost at least one singles and one doubles.
Second, Geng Shuai is unreliable.
Geng Shuai's current strength can only be considered to be just at the level of First Team, but don't forget that First Team has a total of five main players, three sub-main players, and seven or eight other players, such as Niu Linjun, one of them.
The strength of these ten people is not inferior to Geng Shuai, and most of them are fighting Table Tennis Super League.
In addition, there are also veterans who have withdrawn from First Team one after another in the past few years.
The reason why these veterans quit the national team is not because of lack of strength, but because there is no room for improvement, and thus they also lose the opportunity to play in international competitions. However, their real combat power is by no means inferior to ordinary first-team players of the national team. On the contrary, because they are older, more experienced, and more tempered, they have always been suppressing the active players of the national team on Table Tennis Super League.
These people are even more difficult for today's Geng Shuai to match.
As a result, Spade Q has no stable scoring points at all this year.
At the end of last year, some media speculated that Lin Zijun was coming to Spade Q, because they did see Wang Chao and Lin Zijun meeting in the restaurant many times during T2, but in the end Lin Zijun went to Imperial Capital New City. Wang Chao, the new T2 champion, did not take advantage of his status to find any strong foreign aid from the outside. Instead, he quietly found Wu Li at the beginning of this year.
What is the strength of Wu Li...
The review article only used two words to describe it: Haha.
Fan Xiaoxian can only endure the negative opinions from the outside world, because she also knows in her heart that Spade Q's team this year is really not strong, and Wang Chao will indeed allocate its main energy to the World Series.
Therefore, she has been mentally prepared to accept beatings from her opponents on many occasions. This year Spade Q is not asking for good results, she just wants to not be at the bottom and play promotion and relegation matches.
But even so, she would never accept the match that took place on the morning of February 19 and just lay flat.
She must try her best to save it.
So she stared at Hong Kong Open's game schedule every day, waiting for Wang Chao to finish all the games, and then contact Wang Chao as soon as possible.
Today is the 18th, and it is now 10:30 in the morning. She was watching the live broadcast. After seeing Wang Chao accept the live interview, she couldn't wait to send a message.
"So, you want me to rush back this afternoon and play in the game tomorrow morning?" Wang Chao couldn't help but feel a little funny. "What kind of opponent can make you take it so seriously? Could it be that coach Fang Yuan has jumped to a Table Tennis Super League team and wants to continue to fall in love with you?"
"You don't understand." Fan Xiaoxian said seriously over there, "If the game between us and Xiang River Club last year can only be regarded as half a derby, then tomorrow's game will be a real derby between the two Jiangcheng City Team teams."
Wang Chao I understood it immediately.
Spade Q Tomorrow's team is Jiangcheng University Club.
Thanks to "Also Once Was a King" for the 5,000 coin reward. You are already the first leader. Do you want to move to the next level? Hahaha.
Thanks to "Pipi Xia Zhuang" and "Tiaotiao Qinglongyan" for the 100-coin reward. The former is an acquaintance and the latter is a stranger for the time being. You are welcome to come.
