At this time, the qualifying combination in the first half has been determined to be Taiwan Island Combination, and in the second half, there is still the last game left, whoever wins will advance to the finals.
Is Tang Dynasty Combination going to qualify, or is Sakura Country the No. 1 combination?
This is not only a battle between countries, but also a battle between schools and the guiding ideology of mixed doubles.
Table Tennis Association coaches all over the world are watching this game. They need to continue to verify their concepts through this game and figure out how to play mixed doubles.
If the Sakura Country combination wins, it proves that the system must be king in mixed doubles.
But if Tang Dynasty Combination wins, things will be troublesome for coaches from various countries.
Because this proves that players with special abilities can perform exceptionally under the mixed doubles system itself, and all extraordinary performances require coaches to adjust the mixed doubles technical and tactical system based on the players' own special abilities.
This means that coaches from various countries will no longer have a complete, mature, and unchanging fixed training model when guiding their students to practice mixed doubles. They must find out a tactical system that is unique to this pair based on the specific conditions of the players.
If you don't explore and still follow the script, then you will only continue to be beaten in the international arena.
But building a system, especially creating an exclusive system based on the players' own characteristics...
Oh my god, how can these non-Chinese associations coaches do this kind of thing?
Today, table tennis has been around for more than a hundred years, but there are still very few people who truly dare to say that they are qualified and capable of creating a single-player tactical system for their disciples. The mixed doubles tactical system is obviously more complicated than that of single players because there are more uncertain factors.
Even a pretentious character like Rohlskov felt his head hurt at this moment. He sat in the stands and silently prayed to God, hoping that Mizutori Hato and Ichikawa Mima could win. Fortunately, the 4:0 crushing of Tang Dynasty Combination proves that the special style of play is completely wrong and absolutely impossible. Let the mixed doubles project operate according to the mature system in the future. Everyone only practices coordination and does not use their brains. How great.
In fact, table tennis coaches all over the world are praying for the same thing at this moment.
No one wants Wang Chao and Tang Yuanyuan to win, because they really don't want to touch the intricate mixed doubles tactical system.
"My mood is really complicated." In the Imperial City, all the remaining coaches gathered together to watch the game. As the most knowledgeable people in the world, they could certainly see how delicate the current situation was.
So Cai Guodong couldn't help but break the strange silence in the room. "Tell me, should I hope this kid wins, or should I hope he loses?"
The crowd burst into low laughter, but no one picked up on the matter.
From the perspective of Huaping honors, everyone certainly hopes that Wang Chao and Tang Yuanyuan can win.
But if Wang Chao really wins, then when the mixed doubles is paired in the future, specific adjustments will really have to be made based on the players' own strengths. This job involves the whole body and is extremely complicated. It really makes even the big guys of Huaping feel a headache.
Especially Coach Cheng Aimin and Qiu Yinong...
One of them is the teacher of Gao Mingyuan, and the other is the teacher of Lu Feiyang. However, Gao Mingyuan and Lu Feiyang are currently working as mixed doubles backups. According to Cai Guodong's arrangement, even if the mixed doubles combination of Olympic Games is decided, Huaping will have to have at least three stable combinations.
In other words, others can be lazy for the time being, but Coach Cheng Aimin and Qiu Yinong must go back immediately to help their disciples improve the mixed doubles tactical system.
How can Gao Mingyuan maximize its speed in mixed doubles? His partner Wang Yu has a super strong backhand. How can he turn his personal technical advantage into a tactical advantage in mixed doubles?
Can Lu Feiyang's fierceness be highlighted in mixed doubles? His partner Shen Sha has a super strong forehand. How can this be turned into a tactical advantage?
I have a headache, a really bad headache.
If possible, this group of coaches would like to go and make an agreement with table tennis associations around the world right now: Can everyone stop doing this? Involution is a must.
Then someone suddenly remembered something. "Wang Chao Who designed this style of play? Old He?"
Everyone was surprised. In fact, when Tang Dynasty Combination crushed Double Chopper Combination yesterday, they had already lamented the power of this system. Now when they put themselves in the shoes of the complexity of the mixed doubles system, some people couldn't help but sigh, "It's amazing. Others are still studying how to play Mixed Doubles, and they have already begun to make detailed adjustments to the basic playing style...Old He can really be regarded as the number one coach in the world now. He actually came up with this kind of thing independently in just over a month?"
Cai Guodong had a strange expression, and he looked at Zhu Zeshi beside him without saying a word.
They both know very well that Old He has done nothing during this period except guest appearance as Cook and babysitting. These tasks that give the coach a headache were all done by Wang Chao while training, trying and groping by himself.
But Cai Guodong doesn't want to announce this matter, because Wang Chao has been in the limelight enough, and it's time to suppress it a little bit, otherwise, it will be destroyed by Lin Feng. No one can guarantee that the coaches in the Huaping coaching staff are really so upright and upright, and will not be jealous of Wang Chao early on.
To nip problems in the bud, not to test human nature, and to nip any possible signs of disharmony at the source, this is what the helmsman of Huaping should do.
Standing in front of the stage, Tang Yuanyuan had that old-fashioned expression on his face again.
This means that she is very nervous, serious and serious now, and treats the other party as a real heavyweight opponent.
Because she knew in her heart that this semi-final was almost a preview of the final.
Whether it's her and Wang Chao, or Mizutori Hato and Ichikawa Mima, as long as they win this game, they have a great chance of defeating Taiwan Island Combination in the finals and winning the championship.
On the other side, Mizutori Hato was trembling slightly.
He was not nervous, but excited, extremely excited.
In fact, this time Malaysia Open and Mizutori Hato are under unprecedented pressure.
Since the back injury scandal in T2 last year, he has been criticized verbally by domestic fans. In the following months, he also tried hard to make a comeback, and even tried to reverse the fishing boat by defeating Wang Chao, but in the end he was Wang Chao slapped him in the face, and after the New Year, he was slapped in the face again by Wang Chao. By this time, he was already considered a stinker in Sakura Country, and there was almost no chance of him turning around again.
Mizutori Hato once wanted to retire, but then his coach who he had worked with for many years comforted him and said, "Wait a little longer, I heard rumors that there may be big changes in the mixed doubles next year."
Mixed doubles is the last straw for Mizutori Hato.
In fact, he did grasp this straw.
As soon as the mixed doubles news came, he took the initiative to go to Ichikawa Mima to discuss cooperation. Ichikawa Mima was hesitant at first because she was only 18 years old and did not want to find a 29-year-old senior as her partner. She was afraid of the gap in concepts between the two parties. She was even more afraid that the senior would rely on his old age and be unwilling to listen to her opinions during training.
But after Mizutori Hato's repeated assurances, she still agreed, because looking at Sakura Country, she really couldn't find a better player than Mizutori Hato.
Although Qatar Open, Mizutori Hato and Ichikawa Mima lost to Scarlet Gossip Combination in the final last month, the game satisfied the people in Sakura Country. The fans believe that as long as they continue to cooperate like this, Olympic Games will have a chance to defeat Scarlet Gossip Combination by the end of the year.
After all, judging from the content of the game, they played really well.
Moreover, Scarlet Gossip Combination's fatigue is indeed obvious.
Therefore, Mizutori Hato's bad reputation in the country has finally improved a little.
Mizutori Hato was very excited about this, but he felt it was not enough. He would take this opportunity to work harder and try his best to clear his dirty reputation.
That's why he expressed his desire to enter the finals in the singles interview. He hoped that by defeating Fan Xiaodong and Xiao Fei, his bad reputation could be cleaned up.
But he didn't expect that what greeted him was a disastrous defeat.
It didn't matter that he lost. Anyway, Sakura Country fans themselves didn't expect him to achieve any results in singles. But the problem is that after the defeat, he didn't control his mouth and publicly questioned Fan Xiaodong. As a result, he was slapped in the face again. Especially the fact that he was scared by Fan Xiaodong and dared not send short backspin, which once again became the biggest joke in the table tennis world.
Just yesterday afternoon, some very disturbing comments appeared in Sakura Country.
"Do less and make fewer mistakes. Do you really don't understand Mizutori-kun? Why does he always have to be embarrassed? No one is taking the initiative to talk to him, but he still wants to take the initiative to get involved."
"Is Mizutori-kun a person who really has no self-awareness?"
"I thought Mizutori-kun had really changed his ways, but now it seems that it was probably just a small misunderstanding."
"If such a person is paired with our supernova player Yi Chuan in mixed doubles, will it turn Yi Chuan into a weird person?"
"If you don't get the results this time, it must be all Mizutori-kun's fault, right?"
"If this is the case, in order not to be misled by Mizutori-kun, player Ikawa may consider changing his teammate and re-forming the team."
Mizutori Hato checked his phone last night and felt his scalp numb when he saw these words. He clearly realized that if Ichikawa Mima really wanted to change partners, then his only option was to retire on the spot.
Therefore, in addition to fear and fear, he developed a deeper hatred for Wang Chao than before.
Hate to the core.
After all, Fan Xiaodong's random attack routine at the beginning yesterday was also based on Wang Chao's suggestion.
This kid's ghost is still there. He is really everywhere.
I am what I am now, but it is all thanks to him.
Mizutori Hato wants revenge like never before, wants revenge like no other.
If he didn't give Wang Chao a hard blow before retiring, he was afraid that he would never be able to get over this hurdle in his heart.
But singles play is definitely out of the question. Although he hates Wang Chao, he is more afraid of it. He has been frightened to death and does not dare to meet Wang Chao again in the singles arena. He is afraid of shaving his head.
Fortunately, there is mixed doubles, which is a new track given to him by God.
Fortunately, Mizutori Hato had already completed his super evolution when he faced Hong Kong District Combination yesterday morning.
Now he is 100% confident that he and Ichikawa Mima will be the strongest mixed doubles team in the world, capable of defeating Scarlet Gossip Combination, who has dominated the world table tennis for many years.
Although Tang Dynasty Combination is strong, can it still be stronger than Scarlet Gossip Combination?
Don't you see that as soon as Tang Dynasty Combination comes this time, Scarlet Gossip Combination will abstain immediately?
What does this mean?
Obviously, Huaping wanted to set up Wang Chao as a banner. They wanted to create opportunities for Wang Chao so that he could continue to win, so they deliberately withdrew Scarlet Gossip Combination, who was more powerful than Tang Dynasty Combination.
is that so?
That must be the case.
Mizutori Hato was extremely confident at this moment.
"No one knows Huaping better than me!"
He stood at this end of the table, looked up at the other end of the table, and his eyes coincidentally met with Wang Chao. Then, the 29-year-old man opened his mouth, exposed his teeth, and smiled ferociously.
If the two sides of the competition were not allowed to communicate, he would really like to tell Wang Chao right now: You are finished.
"I finally waited for you, but fortunately I didn't give up."
Thanks to the hardships in my life for giving me Mizutori Hato the incomparable courage.
Thanks to Huaping for chasing me every day for more than ten years and giving me Mizutori Hato the persistence to never give up.
I, Mizutori Hato, am standing here today not to prove how great I am.
I just want to tell you that what I lost in the singles arena must be regained in the mixed doubles arena!
The referee tossed a coin, and both sides guessed the coin. In the end, Tang Dynasty Combination got the right to serve.
"As we all know, in mixed doubles, getting the right to serve is not a good thing, but a bad thing. So, what are you cheering for?"
The speaker was Brother Da Ma, and the one sitting next to him was still Ye Hongye, the forum boss who made a big splash last time and had countless fans. This person has basically become a regular guest now. Every time there is a major event, Brother Da Ma will call him and ask, "Coming?"
He always simply replied, "Come."
Because he really has nothing to do with his work.
So at this moment, Ye Hongye, who cooperated tacitly, naturally caught Brother Da Ma's words. "Yes, audience friends, maybe you didn't know enough about mixed doubles before, but you should have gained a lot of knowledge during this time. The most important point is that in mixed doubles, the server is at a disadvantage."
"Why? Because all doubles have a default rule, that is, the receiving partner must be changed in each game. Simply put, if Wang Chao serves to Ichikawa Mima in the first game, then Wang Chao serves again in the second game, and it is Mizutori Hato's turn to receive. So in fact, the direct opponents that the players have to face in each game are different, and the corresponding playing strategies are also different."
"In this case, the side that does not get the right to serve can take advantage of the situation and determine its own receiver based on the server selected by the server, so that the order of receiving and serving in the first game becomes favorable to its side."
Brother Da Ma continued, "Besides this, the biggest difference between doubles and singles is that when serving, the ball is not served by the entire table. Instead, you must serve the ball from the right side of your table to the right side of the opposite table, with the ball in the center of the table. The center line is the axis. If you don't serve the ball to the correct area, it will be considered suicide by serving. This will greatly reduce the effect of sneak attack and serve deception. On the contrary, the opponent can directly mobilize the wide angle when receiving the ball, and the whole station can mobilize without rule restrictions."
Ye Hongye smiled and said, "So, the simplest response is to just throw the ball to the right side of the opponent's table at a large angle. This forces the person who serves the ball to quickly get out of the way after serving and let another person move over to catch the ball. In this way, doesn't one of the opponent's players lose their position?"
Brother Da Ma continued to answer, "Of course, the opponent can also take advantage of the situation and predict that you are going to do this, and directly position himself in advance to give you a blast."
Ye Hongye continued, "There are exceptions. For example, if your serve is particularly good and you can directly score points, or you can directly expose flaws when the opponent receives the ball, this is a player's personal ability that turns from passive to active."
Brother Da Ma smiled, "Wang Chao's serve is just that powerful."
Ye Hongye disagreed. "But I think both Mizutori Hato and Ichikawa Mima shouldn't serve too much."
Brother Da Ma hummed. "Then we'll see."
The two sang and harmonized, explaining everything that needed to be explained clearly in an instant, and the game officially began on the court.
Sure enough, it was Wang Chao who served.
In fact, there is a small detail here, which is exactly the opposite of singles. Brother Da Ma and Ye Hongye did not mention this.
The person who actually guessed the coin in this game was Mizutori Hato.
Mizutori Hato got the right to choose after successfully guessing the coin. He could choose to serve first or receive the ball first. In the end, he chose to receive the ball and gave up the right to serve to Wang Chao and Tang Yuanyuan.
This is naturally because the server suffers in doubles.
After learning that the person who served in the first round was Wang Chao, Mizutori Hato decided to personally receive Wang Chao's serve.
