"Custom-made racket?"
He Jingping's eyes widened. "When you first joined the team, I reminded you to hurry up and get this done, but you said there was no rush. Now at this urgent moment, you actually want to customize the racket... It's too late."
He Jingping's annoyance is completely understandable, because customizing a racket is really not an easy task. Not to mention that Luo Jiu spent many years trying to get a racket. Even the most successful customization of a racket for the national team took more than a month.
It's not that the "Hongshuangli" company that cooperates with Huaping is not good, but because the word "customized" in customizing a racket must ultimately be implemented in the all-round experience of an individual player.
When Wang Chao was at Jiangcheng City Team, we also had a customized racket, but the customization at that time was quite rough. The research team at Hongshuangli conducted independent discussions, research, and planning based on the various technical indicators displayed by Wang Chao at the time, and finally designed a racket that they thought was suitable for Wang Chao.
But now Wang Chao has become the main player of the national team.
The rackets of the main players of the national team are not designed by the "experts" like Hongshuangli. They must be designed by the players and coaches. They dig it out bit by bit, replace the rubber piece by piece, and adjust the parameters one by one. Every adjustment After that, the players have to play with it to test the feel and actual combat effect, and then adjust it. It is necessary to make the racket completely fit the player's personal preferences, and ultimately achieve the effect of 1+1 far greater than 2. Through a racket, the player's actual combat ability can be improved by at least 30%.
Like the super-sticky racket like Xiao Fei, or the super-elastic racket like Geng Shuai, if you hit it with someone else, they can't hit it at all, but if they use it to hit it, they can make many impossible technologies possible.
Why does Wang Chao turn like a dead snake when using Great Python Turn? His lack of strength was certainly one of the reasons, but more importantly, the "Super Luo" racket he used had enough friction but not enough stickiness to lift the ball.
In He Jingping's view, Wang Chao's technology is so rich that it can be called an encyclopedia of technology flows in the table tennis world. In fact, all these technologies have different requirements for racket parameters. For example, when you attack, if you want to rotate, of course the rubber The stronger the friction coefficient, the better, but if you want to bounce, then there is no friction at all and only elasticity. For example, if you want to use a racket to increase the power of the ball, you can even consider using a Japanese penhold single-ply blade blade. But if your ball control is not precise enough, then replacing the reverse rubber with positive rubber is not a move against the trend.
It can be said that changing a racket means that all the techniques that Wang Chao is good at have to be rediscovered, and the muscle memory has to be redone. As for the attributes of the racket itself, whether it should focus on basic skills or the power of killing boards, this also needs to be considered and weighed through constant trials.
All in all, this matter is really complicated and complicated to the point of giving people a headache. The more skilled players are, the more complicated their rackets are. On the contrary, for players like Lin Li who have a simple playing style, there are not so many twists and turns in the racket design.
"At the beginning, you said that your play style had not been finalized, and there was no point in customizing it. Why not Super Luo use it first, but now you have finalized it?" After He Jingping was annoyed, he still asked about the business matter dutifully.
As a coach, he must remind players of a very important point: after this customization, this racket may stay with you for a lifetime.
It's not that Huaping can't reimburse the money for the second customization, but customizing the rackets takes too much time and energy, and the players themselves can't afford it.
"Well, I'm almost finalized now."
Wang Chao nodded. "In the past, my playing style was not fixed, and I was also looking for a way. Later, I found that my biggest problem was the lack of kill boards. I kept thinking of ways until a few days ago..."
He smiled, "I learned Fei Ge's Great Python Turn and finally solved this big problem."
"However, Great Python Turn has a natural flaw. After using this board, the recovery speed is too slow. Once blocked by someone, you will be very passive."
He Jingping frowned. "Xiao Fei's idea during the competition is that as long as the power is strong enough, he will be beaten to death. If he can't be beaten, he will admit defeat... But you can't fight like this. You want to take Grand Slam. If you can't be blocked, just give up. And your strength is not as good as Xiao Fei. No matter how well you learn this move, it will not be as powerful as his original version."
"I know, so I may need to customize it again in the future." Wang Chao said seriously, "Teacher, let's not think so much, let's get through World Table Tennis Championships first."
After saying these words, He Jingping was startled, and then suddenly realized.
Wang Chao wants to change his racket because he aims to be World Table Tennis Championships champion.
So who is World Table Tennis Championships's biggest opponent?
Sun Tianlong will not participate. Although this is the second most important competition among the three competitions, Sun Tianlong's only pursuit of reputation now is the Olympic Games Men's Singles gold medal. Once he gets it, he will be the unprecedented Double Grand Slam.
So...
Wang Chao This is... After officially joining Huaping for half a year and killing Bai Feng Lin Li Xiao Fei one after another, his eyes are finally set on his senior brother Luo Jiu!
"Brothers are fighting against each other, what a tragedy in the world. Teacher, will you be in a complicated mood then?" Wang Chao made a joke.
"I'm so complicated." He Jingping laughed, "If you two can really meet in the finals, I will be really awesome. It is not unusual for our Chinese table tennis team to lock the championship one round in advance, but for me, a coach, to lock in the championship one round in advance, this is unprecedented big news."
He patted Wang Chao on the shoulder. "Come on... Well, can we get down to business? World Table Tennis Championships is only one month away. If you want to customize your own racket, you really have to work overtime and stay up all night. Even if the racket is made in time, you still need an adaptation process. Are you sure you can make it in time?"
"There's enough time." Wang Chao nodded and took out a densely written piece of paper from his pocket, "Teacher, all the parameters are here. Let Hongshuangli do it quickly. I still have to take some time to adapt."
He Jingping was completely confused when he left. It was the first time that he saw a player writing down all the parameters of his exclusive racket. He felt that this was unreasonable, because everyone's exclusive racket was tested through actual combat, and no one had ever calculated it purely theoretically.
This amount of calculation was too large and exceeded the limit of the human brain. He Jingping thought about it over and over, but no matter how much he thought, he could not explain it all. Finally, he thought of a ridiculous possibility: Could it be that Wang Chao traveled back from the future?
It can be seen from this that Old He actually reads online articles, and 80% of them were influenced by Luo Jiu.
But in fact He Jingping sees things too complicated.
The truth is actually very simple.
Wang Chao, who owns Unrivaled talent, simultaneously has unparalleled adaptability and imitation capabilities. For him, the parameters of the racket do not need to be so precise, as long as they are within a general range.
The reason why other players have to be so detailed is because they have fixed power habits and postures. They cannot adjust themselves and can only adapt to themselves through the racket.
The Wang Chao can adjust itself to perfectly adapt to the racket.
Therefore, the real changes to his customized racket are not complicated. He simply and crudely increased the elasticity and viscosity of the racket. The elasticity is increased to improve the hitting power, and the viscosity is increased to hit Great Python Turn.
In order to improve the hitting power, he also replaced the blade based on Super Luo.
In fact, the rubber becomes more elastic and sticky, making it more difficult to control. Therefore, ordinary players do not dare to pursue the limit like this. They will seek a balance between their own control and the parameters of the racket itself, but Wang Chao does not need this balance. He is confident that, as long as the equipment does not violate regulations, he can control it even if the parameters are stretched to the limit.
So the paper he finally wrote was just a copy of the parameters of Super Luo that he had been working on for half a year, and then he added, subtracted, and tinkered with each parameter, and finally came up with something like this.
If the Hongshuangli manufacturer made a mistake in a certain parameter when making the racket, Wang Chao would not care as long as the mistake was not too serious. After all, he had left time to get used to it, and this adaptation process would also be very fast.
It can be said that Wang Chao has traveled to this world for more than a year, and it was only in the past month that his talent, named "Unparalleled", finally bloomed with its most dazzling and unique light.
This is a unique talent that no one can truly possess.
He Jingping left the base all afternoon, and seemed a little hesitant when he came back in the evening. After thinking for a long time, he finally took the initiative to go find Wang Chao and told him a rather shocking news.
"Your mother is getting married, and the person seems to be a barber shop owner down the street."
Wang Chao: "Huh???"
He Jingping looked at Wang Chao's confused look, a little worried, and comforted her softly, "Your mother is still young, and remarriage is quite normal. Don't take it to heart. Don't worry, your mother still said it when she called me to tell me. I promised you that I will never ignore you in the future, and she is not planning to have a second child. She asked me not to tell you about this, because she was afraid of affecting your state, and she was also afraid that you would disagree, so she wanted to just stop it first and tell you later when you go home for the New Year."
He Jingping sighed after saying this, feeling a little sorry for Wang Chao. He usually talked to Wang Chao as equals, but at this time he felt Wang Chao's junior attributes and couldn't help but touch Wang Chao's head with some comfort.
In his opinion, no matter how mature Wang Chao is, he is still an 18-year-old child, and he grew up in a single-parent family. His feelings for Wang Mei are naturally extraordinary. At this time, he suddenly heard that his mother, whom he had depended on since childhood, had married someone else, and he was alone. No matter how open-minded he was, it would be a bit difficult to accept it.
So he tried his best to keep his voice as soft as possible. "Actually, you can treat Huaping as your own family. No matter what, you can also treat Zhumen as your own family. You see, I am not married and I have no children. If you feel lonely, I can always stay with you..."
He Jingping felt a little regretful at this moment, because Wang Mei actually told him not to tell Wang Chao, but after much deliberation, he still felt that he should respect Wang Chao's right to know. After all, Wang Chao was so smart and couldn't hide things in his heart. Even if he wanted to, he might not be able to, so he might as well be honest.
Wang Chao laughed at this moment, "Teacher, what are you thinking about? I am very happy about my mother getting married."
He Jingping was stunned and looked at him carefully. "You can tell me whatever is on your mind, but don't hold it in, Wang Chao. I know you are a smart person, but smart people are more likely to get into trouble than ordinary people when they get into trouble."
"I'm really fine." Wang Chao smiled from the bottom of his heart. He spread his hands and sighed, "Teacher, it makes me a little sad that you look down on me so much."
He Jingping was still confused, frowning and saying nothing.
Wang Chao put away his smile and said seriously, "But teacher, I am fine, but you are fine."
He Jingping: "Huh???"
"I need your help." Wang Chao said seriously, "It's okay if I don't know about such an important thing as my mother's marriage. Now that I know, I should go anyway. Not only should I go, but I also want her to marry in a glorious and beautiful manner, otherwise..."
He paused and smiled leisurely, "How can I be worthy of my status as the mother of the current World Champion and future Grand Slam winner?"
