Wang Chao did not explain in detail.

In fact, he was very experienced in selecting new seedlings in his previous life, and was even called Divine Eye, because the seedling Grand Slam under him was selected by him when everyone was not optimistic about it.

This involves a lot of detailed analysis and some intuition, which is difficult to explain clearly in words.

In fact, after Wang Chao watched the entire game today, he was very shocked because he discovered that among these young players who were rated as "not very good" by Wang Lu, there were actually quite a lot of super geniuses hidden within them.

Yes, not a genius, but a super genius.

They are just too young, so others can't see it clearly, but Wang Chao feels that he can see it accurately.

Xu Bin, Yuan Li, He Peng, Lin Dong, Wang Qin, all of them are super geniuses.

Wang Chao even thinks that in ten years, Huaping will probably have the same heyday as now, because these five little ones are all extraordinary. If they grow up in the future, they will be a much more terrifying existence than the Six Dragons seven years ago.

These five people appeared at the same time, almost in the same year. This can be regarded as another early blowout for Huaping.

Let's go back to the issue of selecting seedlings.

For example, today's Wang Qin, when other people watch him play, they will think that he moves too slowly, his forehand power is not smooth enough, the ball on the table is not delicate enough, his state fluctuates greatly, he has a bad temper, and he will keep hitting himself on the head after losing.

Oh, by the way, the head is bigger than the average person, and with the lush hair, it looks even bigger. Although the size of the head has no actual correlation with the table tennis level, it always gives people the illusion of being top-heavy and having poor balance.

But Wang Chao feels that the reason why he moves slowly is because his pace is wrong, not because the actual movement speed is not enough, so this is not a shortcoming, but an advantage. As long as the pace problem is corrected, the speed will increase immediately.

His forehand power is not smooth enough, but the ball he hits is very powerful. This actually shows that he is very powerful at a young age, and as long as he corrects his power posture, he will make rapid progress.

His small ball in the table is not delicate enough, but it is not because he has a bad touch, but because he uses the wrong technique, rubs it randomly when he shouldn't, and moves it randomly when he shouldn't. What he lacks is a correct coach and a good enough technical and tactical system.

His state fluctuates greatly because of his bad mentality, but the mental level is actually something Chinese National Table Tennis Team players must pass. As long as there is enough special training, most mental problems can be solved.

There is also the issue of a bad temper. How can I put it this way? Wang Chao has always felt that if an athlete wants to reach the altar, he must have a temper. Being a good guy is not enough. As long as his temper is not too excessive and it does not become like Morad, who cannot control himself, in the future he will learn to exercise restraint as he gets older and suffers more losses.

So you see, can all weaknesses be overcome? Can you also give an explanation from another angle?

But this thing is very subtle. For example, for the same two athletes, if the first one has a bad temper, it may be a good thing, because it shows that he is bloody, but the second person has a bad temper, which is not a good thing, because it shows that he has no control.

The subtlety of proportion can only be experienced but cannot be described, so that Wang Chao knew that Xiao Fei was extremely confused, but he still could only pretend to be full of confidence and ingenuity, and directly give the conclusion.

Xiao Fei didn't say anything for a long while, but over there, Wang Qin heard Xiao Fei calling his name, which caused his mentality to become unbalanced. He was actually chased by his opponent continuously. It was obviously a great situation, but he lost a round.

"His mentality is really bad." Xiao Fei couldn't help but sigh.

Wang Chao There is nothing we can do.

If Coach Cheng Aimin or Chen Taolue came to ask him for advice, he would at most give him a conclusion. Believe it or not, you can believe it or not, but the problem is that the person with whom he has the best relationship in the national team is Xiao Fei. As for Sun Tianlong, he respects them more, but always seems to be separated by a layer and not so close.

What's more, Brazil Open a few days ago, he finally suppressed Xiao Fei's flash in the pan and brought an imperfect end to Xiao Fei's retirement battle. He was a little ashamed.

What's more, he also learned Xiao Fei's unique skills.

So he decided to make a bigger move.

"Let's put it this way, Brother Fei." Wang Chao pointed at himself. "I, 18 years old, will be the next generation of Chinese table tennis players in the future."

"Fan Xiaodong, 15 years old, the future second generation of Chinese table tennis."

He then pointed at Wang Qin who was absent-mindedly losing points in the distance. "He is 12 years old and will be the third generation of Chinese table tennis in the future."

He faced Xiao Fei's wide-eyed eyes in shock, nodded, and said firmly, "Yes, I said that."

Wang Qin finally lost his last game this afternoon 1:3 because his mentality was completely messed up. First, Xiao Fei called his name from a distance, and then stared at himself for the whole game. Then Wang Chao and Xiao Fei came directly over, stood by their table, and stared at him until the game was over.

He felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, with tingling all over his body and no energy.

But when the beating was over, he was very depressed because he knew that he was finished.

The opponent is obviously weak, but he beats him like shit. Even if these two senior brothers once thought highly of him, they probably have no chance now.

He never thought that it was Xiao Fei who wanted to choose disciples. He thought that Xiao Fei and Wang Chao were working together to choose disciples for the Zhumen, so he believed in his heart that the teacher behind the scenes was actually Zhu Zeshi or He Jingping.

But then the joy fell from the sky, Xiao Fei asked him directly if he was willing to be his disciple and be specially recruited into the national team.

The so-called special recruitment means that the entire assessment process will be as normal. If you can get in by your own strength in the end, it will be better. If you can't, then just recruit directly.

"This is a privilege."

"Brothers also enjoy privileges now."

Wang Qin felt very happy. Although he didn't know why Xiao Fei took a fancy to him, he still felt confident and secretly vowed to win completely tomorrow to let future teachers see his true strength.

At this time, the players had dispersed under the leadership of their teachers, and the coaches of the national team gathered beside Wang Lu.

Wang Chao inquired about it and found out that Jiang Shan was finally selected by Chen Taolue and became Liang Kunpeng's younger brother. However, coach Coach Cheng Aimin had given up and planned to wait until the end of the year exam to take a look again.

In addition, Qiu Yinong also chose to give up. In addition, Wang Shou, the current head coach of Imperial Capital New City Team, also did not leave because he is the younger brother of Wang Lu.

Xiao Fei is a little curious, because the requirement of the Table Tennis Super League Professional League is that you must be over 18 years old to participate. He doesn't know what the significance of Wang Shou's coming here is.

But Wang Chao has already guessed that Wang Shou will probably join the national team next year.

Just because Wang Shou has taken care of Zhu Ding in Poseidon Club for many years, it can be seen that Wang Shou actually really wants to join the national team. But now, Shou Deyunkai sees the moon, it is probably the decision has been made, but it has not been announced yet, so Wang Shou is actually here to choose a disciple today.

But obviously, he didn't choose either.

As soon as everyone met, it was obvious that Xiao Fei was the one who stood out the most, because he was the only one to choose a 12-year-old player, which broke the record for the youngest player selected by the national team. The strangest thing is that he did not choose the player ranked first, but Wang Qin, who was ranked last.

To be precise, because he lost the last game, Wang Qin is now ranked sixth instead of fifth. As for the current fifth, it is Jiang Shan, the new disciple of Chen Taolue.

"What do you think?" Wang Lu asked Xiao Fei, but what he was looking at was Wang Chao.

They are all acquaintances. Facing a group of coaches, Wang Chao did not show any stage fright. He smiled and said, "Everyone, the players this time are very good. The top five players are all worthy of selection. Don't miss it."

Everyone looked at each other.

As early as a few hours ago, Wang Chao told Chen Taolue that Xu Bin was Grand Slam's offspring, and Chen Taolue just thought he was farting.

But now Xiao Fei has really chosen a 12-year-old player, which makes everyone realize that Wang Chao may not be joking.

"Do you really think Xu Bin is Grand Slam's offspring?" Chen Taolue finally couldn't hold it back.

"Yes, it is definitely the seedling of Grand Slam." Wang Chao smiled and added, "But the seedling is just a seedling. No one knows whether it can grow into something. If I had to guess, I still think Wang Qin is more likely to become the real Grand Slam."

Coaches are messy.

If there were Zhu Zeshi, Qin Huachang, He Jingping, or even an authority of Sun Tianlong's level present, they would definitely ask one more question for peace of mind.

But alas no.

So this group of coaches who haven't made any achievements yet were really frightened by Wang Chao.

After all, Xiao Fei has really taken on a disciple. No matter how evil-minded Wang Chao is, he can't even trick his own people, right?

"Then I want to choose one now, please give me some advice." Qiu Yinong is young after all, two years younger than Xiao Fei, and because he comes from a rich family, he seems more decisive.

"Then choose Yuan Li." Wang Chao said, "He should be the most cerebral among these five players. It just so happens that he and Lu Feiyang can learn from each other and learn from each other's strengths, which will be beneficial to both of them."

Qiu Yinong agreed immediately, "Okay, I will go to the hotel to find him later."

He glanced at Wang Lu: "Coach Wang, please write it down for me first. As long as he doesn't object, the matter will be settled."

In fact, there has never been such a thing as player rejection when Huaping coaches select players. After all, China Table Tennis is a real army crossing a single-plank bridge. As long as they can cross the bridge, who cares who the coach is?

Therefore, Yuan Li has been settled at this time.

Originally, everyone wanted to have a casual chat and then dispersed. More importantly, they wanted to complain about the lack of performance of this year's team members. However, the situation has completely changed now.

Everyone was a little reluctant to leave.

Let them recruit disciples directly. They are afraid of being cheated, and they are even more afraid that Wang Chao will make mistakes.

Let them give up directly, and they are afraid of missing the opportunity.

These days, it is really more difficult for a Huaping coach to choose a disciple than it is for a man to find a wife.

The scene was silent for more than ten seconds, and the atmosphere was strange. Then Wang Shou coughed. "Um... brother, why don't you take one too?"

Wang Lu hesitated for a moment. "Okay, which one do you think is better?"

Wang Shou said, "Then Lin Dong."

Wang Lu nodded and wrote Lin Dong's name on the paper in front of him, which was another confirmation.

Everyone can naturally see that it is Wang Shou who wants to be a disciple, but he has not really joined the team after all, so he can only ask his brother to help with the apprenticeship, so as to snatch the disciple first, so as not to be interfered by others.

As for why he chose Lin Dong, everyone can guess it.

Wang Shou has been coaching Zhu Ding for many years, and this year, Imperial Capital New City has coached Liang Kunpeng for half a year. Both players are pursuing the path of single board quality. Wang Shou is particularly familiar with this type of player, so when choosing a disciple, of course he should also choose a heavy gunner.

Lin Dong is not a standard slugger, but he is very powerful with both forehand and backhand. He plays quality balls and does not have so much work. This is exactly the style that Wang Shou is familiar with.

Wang Lu finished writing his name and looked up at Coach Cheng Aimin: "Old Cheng, do you have any ideas?"

Coach Cheng Aimin smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Forget it, I'll take another look."

This is also the norm.

After all, choosing a disciple is too important. It is impossible for everyone to take Wang Chao's words as a guide. Xiao Fei and Qiu Yinong belong to the same sect. Wang Shou has his own ideas, but Coach Cheng Aimin really can't afford to gamble now. Since he finally chose to give up Jiang Shan, it is impossible to take the risk of selecting a 12-year-old team member.

Everyone dispersed again, but Wang Lu stopped Wang Chao and asked, "What's going on with Wu Li? He's 22 years old, right, and he still hasn't joined the national team?"

When asked this question, Xiao Fei had a strange expression.

Facts have proved that he is not only thinking about Wu Li, but also Wang Lu.

After all, Wang Lu's new disciple Ma Angxing's record this year is not very good.

Wang Chao repeated what he said to Xiao Fei before.

"Well, not bad." Wang Lu nodded. "Then who do you think it is better for him to follow?"

After all, he is the leader of the Wang Clan. Even if he wants someone, he cannot directly recommend himself, otherwise it will be too shameful if he is rejected.

But he knew that Wang Chao understood what he meant.

"Coach Wang, I'm sorry, I have already chosen Wu Li's teacher." Wang Chao smiled bitterly.

"Yeah, okay, it doesn't matter." Wang Lu seemed very open-minded. "I can understand, after all, Old Zhu's teaching ability is still strong, and I happen to be free recently, if Wu Li follows him..."

"No, Coach Wang." Wang Chao interrupted, "I hope he will follow Brother Long."

Wang Lu was stunned for a moment.

Sun Tianlong Although he gave up almost all competition opportunities this year, he is really busy, even busier than when he was a player.

Because he has two generals, Fan Xiaodong and Lin Li, one with a promising future and the other with the absolute main force, both of whom must be taken care of wholeheartedly.

What's more, Sun Tianlong also has to prepare for the Olympics Men's Singles. He has preparation tasks and even more pressure to win the gold medal.

What's more, in principle, each coach can only have two disciples.

In this case, Wang Chao actually wanted to give Wu Li to Sun Tianlong?

Wang Lu's mind was a little confused at this moment, and he subconsciously said, "I don't understand..."

He really doesn't understand.

He thought that Wu Li should have entered a rich family no matter what. This was called keeping the good news from outsiders.

Then the master is either He Jingping or Zhu Zeshi. Considering that He Jingping also has two strong men, it is Zhu Zeshi, and the eldest disciple Xiao Fei is going to be the coach., the former disciple Lu Feiyang was left to Qiu Yinong. He is now completely unemployed, so Wu Li is given to Zhu Zeshi for training. It can be said that it is the best, and he can directly train one-on-one.

Old Zhu is very fierce and strict, but it doesn't matter, because Wu Li has "Hundred Refinements", please feel free to abuse him. The harder you abuse him, the happier he will be.

Look, what a fit.

But in the end, the one chosen by Wang Chao was actually Sun Tianlong, the new head of the Qin clan?

"Actually, it's easy to understand." Wang Chao explained, "Wu Li needs pressure. The stronger the opponent, the more his potential can be squeezed out. Look at our Huaping, there are not many players who can squeeze him. From the single In terms of board quality, it's just Lin Li and Fan Xiaodong, and in terms of technology, it's just me and Brother Long, plus at most a backhand raw rubber shot from my senior brother Luo Jiu."

"But I've been too busy recently and I definitely don't have time to practice with him, so if he wants to find them, he can only look for Brother Long, Lin Li and Fan Xiaodong."

"These three people happen to be together. Lin Li and Fan Xiaodong are both responsible for Brother Long. Isn't it just right to throw Wu Li over and let them compete with each other?"

Wang Lu opened his mouth but said nothing.

Of course what Wang Chao said is right, the problem is, you are sponsoring the enemy...

Wang Lu The word "enemies" just crossed his mind, and suddenly he was shocked, and finally realized where he had gone wrong.

In the past few months, he has always felt strange. He obviously has a good relationship with Qin and Zhu factions, but recently the relationship has stagnated. On the contrary, Qin and Zhu factions is getting closer and closer to each other, and they actually ignore Wang Clan and directly leave Wang Clan aside.

He had never figured out what went wrong, but at this moment he suddenly understood.

In fact, it's not that something went wrong on my own, but that I didn't keep up with my thinking.

In the past, when Qin Huachang was still there, Huaping was full of enemies. Although Qin and Zhu factions had a good relationship, once specific interests were involved, it was true that you would fight against me at all costs. It was at this time that Wang Lu leaned in, relied on the same gameplay and abided by the same rules as Qin Huachang and Zhu Zeshi, and became good friends.

But now Qin Huachang has left, Zhu Zeshi has faded out, and Qin and Zhu factions is really the most popular now. Sun Tianlong and He Jingping have completely changed their gameplay.

At first, Sun Tianlong took the initiative to help Wang Chao fight for the quota of Olympic Games singles match. This was naked support for the enemy.

Now it is Wang Chao who gives Wu Li to Sun Tianlong. This is also naked support for the enemy.

But they don't care.

Because the current way of playing Qin and Zhu factions is that they don't regard each other as a competitor at all. What everyone has in mind is the interests of the entire Huaping team.

Sun Tianlong helped Wang Chao for the overall benefit of Huaping. Wang Chao gave Wu Li to Sun Tianlong also for the overall benefit of Huaping.

He Jingping readily accepts this.

Zhu Zeshi probably likes the old way of playing, but Sun Tianlong always gives big gifts first. Even if it is based on the principle of reciprocity, he is too embarrassed not to return the gift.

So under this new way of playing, Wang Lu was squeezed out unknowingly.

Wang Lu suddenly thought at this time that Qin Huachang is actually very experienced in training players' personalities, and he has spent several years not smoothing out the edges of Bai Feng's personality. In fact, he should have consulted Qin Huachang long ago.

There is also his little disciple Ma Angxing. The reason why he has made slow progress in the past six months is because although his Eagle Eye can see through various disguises, it does not mean that he can crack it after seeing through it. He is not strong enough in actual combat. In fact, this problem can be solved by asking Lin Li or Liang Kunpeng as a sparring partner.

Why don't you ask for help yourself?

In fact, it was because I subconsciously believed that Wang Clan had no benefits that could be exchanged with the other party for the time being, so I was embarrassed to speak.

He remembered another thing. A few days ago, Chen Taolue went to Guangdong Province to consult Qin Huachang, and got Lin Li's technical and tactical system. He used this as a framework to create a new tactical system for Liang Kunpeng. This actually means that Lao Chen has understood it and has begun to adapt to the new gameplay in advance.

Even Qin Huachang, a guy with a rat's belly and chicken's intestines, has made progress. He directly gave Lin Li's complete technical and tactical system to Chen Taolue without asking for anything in return.

"So, am I falling behind?" Wang Lu felt a little complicated in his heart, but on the surface he was still calm and asked calmly, "Wang Chao, do you really think these five children are worthy of joining the national team?"

Wang Chao nodded and said seriously, "Of course."

"Then you say... how about I take the remaining two?" Wang Lu felt uneasy when he said this, because he had two fears. The first was that Wang Chao was cheating him, and he The quota of apprentices is limited. If he accepts both, one of them will be given to Wang Shou, which will use up his younger brother's quota. As for himself, with three disciples under his command, he has reached the limit of the head coach's tolerance.

The second reason is that I'm afraid that Wang Chao won't be happy with it. After all, Wang Chao took a fancy to these five children first. Maybe they want to take them over?

But it turned out that he thought too much.

"Are you willing to accept it? That would be perfect." Wang Chao was quite pleasantly surprised. "It would be a pity to miss these five. I was thinking about going back to convince my uncle, but as you know, he is... very difficult to convince."

Wang Lu was relieved, and even felt a little proud, because he was sure that he could finally play again now, and it was not that difficult to keep up with the times.

So he wrote the last two names Xu Bin and He Peng on the paper in front of him.

At this point, the top six in today's standings have been divided up, and all six special moves have been decided on the first day of a quiz. This is also a unique thing for national team selection.
