Jiang Tiansheng was a little dazed for a moment.
Although he was angry, he had not yet lost his mind, so he knew in his heart that Fan Xiaofan did not know the real reason for his anger.
After all, even the big bosses of Huaping are not optimistic about Wu Li. How can Fan Xiaofan, a businessman who is full of copper odor, have any vision?
The reason why Fan Xiaofan signed Wu Li is probably because of his deep pockets, so he signed it first. After all, Spade Q is a geo-team, and Northern Hubei Province didn't produce any outstanding talents last year, so it makes sense to sign Wu Li as a venture capital investment.
But Fan Xiaofan's explanation is a bit interesting. From beginning to end, he neither bothered about the signing procedure nor Wu Li's treatment. Everything in the words explained the current status of Wu Li.
It was as if he had completely figured out what Jiang Tiansheng was thinking, and then prescribed the right medicine.
Jiang Tiansheng was so angry that he couldn't express himself. After a few seconds of silence, he said a hard "hmm" and hung up the phone.
On the other side, Fan Xiaofan actually had a question mark on his forehead. He was stunned when he heard the sound of hanging up. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that this probably meant that Jiang Tiansheng accepted his suggestion.
So he called Wang Chao anxiously, "Hey, I just said everything you told me, and then Lao Jiang hung up the phone directly."
Wang Chao was very calm and smiled over there, "Then it'll be fine."
"But Shandong Province Power Club is not easy to deal with." After all, Fan Xiaofan is promoted to a higher level for the first time in his life, so nervousness is unavoidable. "If Wu Li loses again by then, it will be a combination of old and new hatreds. I think Chiang Kai-shek will kill me."
"Don't worry, you can't lose." Wang Chao comforted, "It's okay even if you lose, Lao Jiang is not that shallow. What he wants to see is not the victory or defeat, but the content of the game... You believe me, Wu Li will definitely surprise all of you in the next game."
He paused and added, "Actually, the game tomorrow morning might be enough to give Lao Jiang an explanation."
Today's Sequoia Stadium directly opened the venue to 5,000 people, which is very rare for table tennis competitions.
After all, although the popularity and economic aggregate of table tennis in this world is much higher than in previous lives, it is still no match for basketball and football.
According to usual practice, Spade Q's home stadium usually only opens to 1,000 people, while Jiangcheng University Team opens to 3,000 people. However, today's situation is very special. It can even be said that it is the first time in Table Tennis Super League's nearly 20 years of operation.
Because today's Sequoia Stadium is not only the home court of Spade Q, but also the home court of Jiangcheng University Team.
Although there are two Table Tennis Super League teams in Imperial City and Magic City, because these two cities are large enough, there are enough gyms to choose from, and there is no need to worry about collisions.
Only a place like Jiangcheng City can be said to be big or small, and the gymnasium can be said to be more or less. In the past ten years, everyone Table Tennis First Division Table Tennis Super League has done nothing wrong and shared the same venue. But starting from this year, fights like this will no longer be uncommon.
In fact, at the beginning of the year, Table Tennis Super League organizer Chinese Table Tennis Association was forced to adjust the game schedule because of this matter. The purpose was to never allow Spade Q and Jiangcheng University Team to play games on the same day and at the same time - unless they played each other.
Therefore, Fan Xiaofan also talked with the boss behind Jiangcheng University Team for a long time about the home ticket sales issue. Initially, the other party meant that the ticket sales revenue would be 37 cents, Jiangcheng University 7 cents, and Spade Q 3 cents. The reason is that Jiangcheng University's popularity and number of fans far exceed Spade Q.
Fan Xiaofan naturally quit. He believes that after Spade Q's outbreak last year, the number of fans can be equal to Jiangcheng University Team.
After some extreme fighting between the two sides, Fan Xiaofan unleashed his ultimate move. "Either we decide on the outcome. Whoever wins today will get seven, and whoever loses will get three."
The opponent is not happy because they know that their ace Luo Jiu will not play, and the opponent's ace Wang Chao has come all the way back and is on the list for today's game, so Spade Q actually has a greater chance of winning.
So the two sides continued to push to the limit, and this time Fan Xiaofan refused to let go, so the two sides finally agreed that the income from ticket sales would be shared equally, but only this time, and they would meet again in the next round. If Luo Jiu can appear, then we have to talk again.
At nine o'clock in the morning, all the seats in the stadium were almost full. The media from all walks of life set up spears and cannons at various points. Fans in the auditorium held up a large number of banners, some supporting Spade Q and some supporting Jiangcheng University. The most eye-catching among them was the die-hard fan cheerleading team led by the young and beautiful Luo Xiaoyu.
This female reporter from the Jiangcheng City sports channel has basically been bound to Spade Q since she joined the team. She has been with the group and cheered the whole process. She has never missed a game.
She would like to follow Wang Chao to cover international competitions, but Jiangcheng TV station is only a local TV station after all and is not qualified enough, so it does not have the conditions yet.
But those who know Luo Xiaoyu will know that today's situation is actually quite special, because there is another young and beautiful girl waving the flag together with Luo Xiaoyu. The two standing together are doubly beautiful, forming a unique landscape that attracts the attention of the men in the field.
This woman is Xiangnan Province Xingcheng City reporter Zhou Tingfang from "Star City Sports News" next door.
At first Luo Xiaoyu supported Wang Chao, and Zhou Tingfang supported Hu Buming. The two hit it off at first sight, and then the plastic sisterhood broke up on the spot. They have become the main competitors for a year. Whenever Wang Chao wins, Luo Xiaoyu will write a report with great fanfare and then directly cue Zhou Tingfang. Whenever Hu Buming wins, Zhou Tingfang will also write a close-up with a clever pen and then directly cue Luo Xiaoyu. The hatred between the two people is deep.
But today, the two beauties smiled sweetly and fought side by side. It seemed that they had become best friends for life. The grudges of the past year seemed to have disappeared without realizing it.
In fact, the reason is very simple: Spade Q has been upgraded.
From now on, there is no comparison between Spade Q and Xiangshui River, and everyone's grades are different.
More importantly, after Hu Buming's big mouth propaganda, everyone knew one thing. It turned out that it was Wang Chao who personally pulled Hu Buming into the national team for the national team selection at the beginning of the year.
This is so frustrating.
Some people say that this is about smiling at each other and letting go of grudges. Some people say that this is about heroes cherishing heroes. But most people think that this is called repaying evil with kindness and being upright and honest. Player Wang Chao behaves in a very benevolent manner.
So now we have become a family that loves each other. As for Zhou Tingfang, of course she has already seen how good Wang Chao is last year, but the girl is stubborn and refuses to admit it. Now that there is an opportunity, why not hurry up and get down?
So Luo Xiaoyu gained a best friend, Spade Q gained a fan, the cheerleading team gained a second leader, and the world where no one was injured was completed.
Soon, the leaders of both teams submitted the game roster and playing order.
The order of Spade Q is as follows: the first order is Geng Shuai, the second order is Wang Chao, and the third order is Wu Li.
The reason why we set up the formation like this is because Jiangcheng University Team is actually very strong.
Don't look at the fact that when Fan Xiaoxian called Wang Chao yesterday, he said that Jiangcheng University Team except Luo Jiu were all crooked melons and cracked dates. But in fact, among these so-called crooked melons and cracked dates, at least two of these so-called crooked melons and cracked dates were that Geng Shuai had no confidence in winning.
Jiangcheng University Team second single Wang Bo, 33 years old this year, is a true veteran. He was selected into the First Team lineup 12 years ago. He is older than Sun Tianlong. He was teammates with Wang Wendong, but he never succeeded. Later, when he got older, he quit the national team and came to Table Tennis Super League to retire.
So his playing style is actually very similar to Bayer and Ochomirov of non-Chinese associations, both of which are health balls.
But don't think that health balls are not powerful. You only need to look at the world rankings of Bayer and Ochomirov to know this.
If Wang Bo changes his nationality and goes to play abroad, he will definitely be among the top 20 players in the world. But in China Table Tennis Team, he is just an ordinary second player in Table Tennis Super League's upstream team.
It's not too eye-catching, but it's definitely not comparable to a player like Geng Shuai who has found his way back after being idle for many years.
Jiangcheng University Team triple single Duan Changying, 25 years old this year, is a serious First Team player. He will go to every training camp organized by the national team. He is also eligible to participate in the three major competitions when they conduct intra-team pass-throughs, but his life is relatively difficult. To this day, he has participated in four pass-throughs and has never received a quota. In the past few years, he has participated in a few open competitions, but all of them failed without success.
But since he is the main selected First Team player, he is also not something that Geng Shuai can fight against now.
Don't talk about Niu Linjun. Although Niu Linjun is also considered a First Team player, he is essentially a sparring partner and has low morale. The fact that he can choose to fight Table Tennis First Division means that he has actually chosen to self-exile. This is completely different from Duan Changying who insists on playing in the team's direct competition every year.
As for the substitute for Jiangcheng University, it is an old acquaintance, it is the former Poseidon Club second single Ma Angxing.
Speaking of which, Ma Angxing also has a hard life.
He received instructions from Wang Lu and left Poseidon Club. He originally planned to go to the Imperial Capital to find a club to play in. In this case, Wang Lu would be watching, so he could be nearby for guidance. However, with his strength, he would naturally not be able to join the Imperial Capital Panlong team, so the team Wang Lu initially found for him was Imperial Capital New City.
Then Imperial Capital New City was downgraded...
It can be said that once Imperial Capital New City is downgraded, not only Lin Zijun but also Ma Angxing will be harmed.
Ma Angxing just left Table Tennis First Division. Could it be possible that he turned around and ran to another Table Tennis First Division team?
Coach Wang Lu's thoughts are very strange. Logically speaking, since he can't go to Imperial Capital New City, he should find a place nearby to resettle Ma Angxing, such as Jinmen City and which are adjacent to the imperial capital. Jizhou Province already had a team of Table Tennis Super League, but he didn't. He threw Ma Angxing directly to Northern Hubei Province Jiangcheng University Team thousands of miles away and continued to roam.
I don't know if this is due to Luo Jiu or Wang Chao. After all, Coach Wang Lu has been working hard to get closer to Qin and Zhu factions.
Today, because Luo Jiu is not here, Ma Angxing successfully switched from substitute to third order.
So now Jiangcheng University's playing list is: veteran Wang Bo, national team player Duan Changying, and newcomer Ma Angxing.
Among them, Wang Bo and Duan Changying can exchange the positions of one single and two singles, because they have both played in the World Championship, and they are both Special Class Athlete.
Geng Shuai made it clear when he was lining up last night that he had only beaten Ma Angxing. As for whether Wang Bo and Duan Changying changed positions, it actually made the same difference to him.
So after Wang Chao thought about it for a while, he decided to play the second single by himself.
If he plays a single, then the game will be like he wins the first game, Geng Shuai loses the second game, and doubles loses the third game. Basically, there will be no accidents in the first three games.
In this situation of falling behind 1:2, in order not to be directly defeated 1:3, Wang Chao could only play the fourth game to equalize the score, leaving the fifth game to Wu Li.
In this case, the fourth and fifth games of Jiangcheng University Team can be played no matter how they are arranged, but our side has only one choice.
And what if Wang Chao goes to place the second order?
There will be a very uncertain factor, that is whether he and Wu Li can win the doubles match.
It's hard to say because Wang Chao and Wu Li have never been matched before.
But if the doubles can be won, then the situation will become very favorable, because the scores in the first three games will be reversed, becoming Spade Q 2:1 leading.
In this way, it becomes Spade Q's fourth and fifth games that can be flexibly deployed, but Jiangcheng University's side. If they lose in the fourth game, it will be a bye directly 1:3.
After considering these possibilities, Wang Chao chose to serve as the second single, and had an emergency doubles training with Wu Li for two hours last night, and did not leave the training hall until around ten o'clock in the evening.
In the lineup for the fourth and fifth games, after everyone discussed it, it was finally decided that Geng Shuai would play in the fourth game.
If the opponent plays Ma Angxing in the fourth game, then Geng Shuai can win directly and end the game 3:1.
If the opponent plays Ma Angxing in the fifth game, then Wu Li can be considered a match against Ma Angxing.
In any case, for Spade Q, who currently lacks hard power and has a tight lineup, this is already the best order of appearance.
Precisely because of all the uncertainties, Fan Xiaofan did not dare to tell the truth when he called Jiang Tiansheng.
