If it is another event, Chen Qiang said that it will take one to two years to win the world championship, it must be bragging, but table tennis is different, in this project, Chen Qiang is confident that he can cultivate one or even several world champions in a short period of time.

After all, table tennis is China's national sport, after the seventies, almost all table tennis technology is developed in China, in this sport, China's advantage is unprecedented, China's "big devil" legion, to say that the world is modest, just to beat the world is not enjoyable, China will also help other countries to train athletes, specially used to hang a fight.

As an authority in the future sports industry, Chen Qiang is of course very familiar with the technology of table tennis and the development of table tennis, and Chen Qiang himself plays table tennis very well.

In China, those who dare to say that they play table tennis well must be masters. Although Chen Qiang's table tennis level is not up to the professional level, he can also get a place in amateur competitions at the municipal level. In other countries, how old can a municipal amateur competition be? However, in China, it is no problem to get a place in a municipal amateur competition and go to an African or South American country to be a national player, and perhaps the black brothers of the African national team cannot beat the Chinese municipal amateur champion.

Director Wang did not doubt Chen Qiang's bold words about winning the world championship in two years, and Director Wang believed that since Chen Qiang dared to say it, he would definitely be able to do it.

"Comrade Chen Qiang, I will report this matter to the higher-level leaders." Director Wang spoke.

"Director Wang, why don't you wait for two days, I will write a detailed report, and then you will submit it?" Chen Qiang said.

"Of course it's better to have a detailed written report, I'll wait for you for a few days." Director Wang replied.

……

Chen Qiang's suggestion was indeed adopted by the organization. Whether it is a world champion or an international influence, it is extremely tempting, and it is also what New China needs. And Chen Qiang also took on the heavy responsibility of forming the Chinese table tennis team.

Table tennis originated in the United Kingdom, influenced by the United Kingdom, Hong Kong's table tennis is relatively developed, at that time there were many amateur table tennis clubs in Hong Kong, and some table tennis competitions were often organized. China's first table tennis world champion, Yung Guotuan, is a native of Hong Kong.

Among the outstanding table tennis players mastered by the National Sports Federation, there are indeed many players who have participated in table tennis competitions in Hong Kong.

"Jiang Yongning, Fu Qifang, there is only one Rong Guotuan missing." Chen Qiang looked at the list in his hand and found these two familiar names.

Jiang Yongning, Fu Qifang and Rong Guotuan were known as the "Three Masters of Table Tennis" in later generations, and they made indelible contributions to the vigorous development of China's table tennis industry. In later generations, there was a table tennis "Sanying Cup", which was established to commemorate these three people.

Jiang Yongning is a returned overseas Chinese, he was the champion of the Hong Kong men's singles in 1952, and later gave up a stable job in Hong Kong, came to the mainland, represented China in the 20th World Table Tennis Championships, and defeated the former world champion British Leach in the World Table Tennis Championships, becoming the first person in China to defeat the world champion. After retiring, Jiang Yongning also served as the head coach of the women's national team.

Fu Qifang once represented Hong Kong in the 19th World Table Tennis Championships and helped Hong Kong defeat Japan. Later, Fu Qifang returned to the mainland and joined the Chinese table tennis team. After retiring, Fu Qifang served as the head coach of the Chinese table tennis team and led the Chinese team to win the first table tennis world championship.

As for Rong Guotuan, he is only fifteen years old this year, so he does not appear on the list.

In order to recruit Jiang Yongning and Fu Qifang, Chen Qiang went to Hong Kong to persuade the two to serve the country, and the two agreed without hesitation. At the same time, Chen Qiang also found the fifteen-year-old Rong Guotuan, who dropped out of school because of his family's poverty and worked as a child laborer in a fishing business in Hong Kong.

……

In April 1954, the 21st World Table Tennis Championships opened in Wembley, England.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Britain was the first Western country to recognize the new China, and later due to the outbreak of the Korean War, the relationship between China and Britain fell into a low ebb, but with the end of the Korean War, Sino-British relations showed signs of improvement, especially the Geneva Conference held in 1954, which gave China and Britain an opportunity for direct communication.

In this atmosphere, China's trip to the United Kingdom to participate in the World Table Tennis Open has also become a sign of goodwill.

The emergence of the Chinese team has not attracted much attention, and European table tennis is still very strong in this era, and people will generally pay attention to strong European teams. What's more, this is still a tournament in the UK, and the focus is naturally on European teams.

In the first team competition, the Chinese team was obviously treated as cannon fodder, the men's team met Hungary in the first round, and the women's team was against the Czech Republic. It's probably like the four Grand Slams of tennis in the future, players like Federer and Nadal, there will definitely be some weak opponents in the first few rounds, so that they can advance without pressure, warm up by the way, and find the feeling of the game.

Now, China has become a weak opponent, used to warm up the strong team and brush up experience.

At that time, Hungary was supposed to be the world's number one table tennis power, and from 1926 to 1952, a total of 19 World Table Tennis Championships were held, and Hungary won a total of 12 men's team championships. And the only one that can compete with Hungary is the Czech Republic. The Czech Republic has won a total of 6 men's team championships, which means that in the first 19 World Table Tennis Championships, Hungary and the Czech Republic took turns to sit in the bank.

However, Chen Qiang knows that the days of European countries dominating table tennis are coming to an end, Japan's table tennis has risen, since 1954, table tennis has become the world of the Japanese, the Japanese team has almost all the table tennis championships, until the rise of Chinese table tennis in the sixties, to break Japan's monopoly on table tennis.

In the early fifties, European countries mainly adopted the play style of far table and downspin ball, simply put, it was to cut the ball away from the table, constantly looking for opportunities to counterattack in the chipping, and playing defensive counterattack, this style of play was relatively negative, and the duration of the round was relatively long. Therefore, in the table tennis rules at that time, the game time was limited, and the purpose was to speed up the game process and encourage active attack.

Of course, there is no comparison between the chippers of that era and the chippers of later generations, and the chopping of Hungarian male athletes in the 50s was not as powerful and spinning as that of Korean female athletes in the 21st century.

In Chen Qiang's view, this kind of primary chipping is not worth mentioning at all, and in the future generations of China's table tennis technology, this kind of chipper will not even need the second round, and it can be done with one racket.

The Chinese table tennis team, under Chen Qiang's training, has already been reborn, and the future Chinese table tennis training level is already superior, coupled with more advanced table tennis concepts, which makes Chen Qiang not take the Hungarian team in his eyes at all.

In fact, Chen Qiang did not come up with the most advanced table tennis concept in later generations, he just taught the players the Chinese team's fast-attacking style of play in the sixties and seventies, which was enough to beat the world.

……

Japan easily defeated their opponents and advanced to the second round.

Looking at the young men of the Japanese team, the head coach of the Japanese team smiled proudly.

"Ichiro Komura, Kazuo Takae, Yoshikuma Tomita, Keinoji, these are the hopes of Japanese table tennis!"

Thinking of this, the head coach of the Japanese team planned to encourage his players, he cleared his throat and said: "You have worked hard, but this is the first game, and we still have a long way to go, last year's Table Tennis World Championships, we did not win the men's team championship, this year we must make up for last year's regrets, and get the men's team championship in our hands!" ”

"Yes, please rest assured, we will work hard!" Several Japanese players said in unison.

"We still have to pay attention to the performance of other countries, Hungary is our strongest opponent, we lost to Hungary at the World Table Tennis Championships last year. The Czech Republic is also a traditional table tennis powerhouse and based on the current grouping, we are likely to meet them in the semi-finals. Romania are the upstarts in table tennis and they have a good chance of being our quarter-final opponents. In addition, there is the English team, after all, they are the hosts, they have the advantage of home field, maybe they will burst out with great potential! The head coach of the Japanese team opened his mouth and instructed.

At this moment, someone hurriedly ran in, and everyone turned their heads to look at the reporters accompanying the Japanese team.

"Yamamoto-kun, what's going on? Why do you look so flustered? The head coach of the Japanese team asked.

"Coach, I just received the latest results, Hungary has been eliminated!" Reporter Yamamoto spoke.

"What? Hungary is eliminated! The head coach of the Japanese team was slightly stunned, and then laughed violently: "Hahaha, great, really great, we have removed the strongest enemy, and there is more hope of winning the championship!" By the way, this is the first round, right? Hungary's opponent shouldn't be too strong, this is a big upset! It's not just who helped us so much, I have to thank them. ”

"It's the Chinese team." Reporter Yamamoto spoke.

"The Chinese team? Can they defeat Hungary? It's incredible! Hungary must have underestimated the enemy. It's also difficult for the Chinese team to win, right? After all, the opponent is Hungary, the number one player in the world. The head coach of the Japanese team spoke.

"Maybe it wasn't difficult for the Chinese team to win, the total score was 3-0, Hungary lost three games in a row and lost the game, and it is said that they all lost by a big score." Reporter Yamamoto replied.

"Will Hungary lose to China by a big score? Yamamoto-kun, are you kidding? ”

In the men's team competition, the Chinese team easily defeated the world's No. 1 Hungary, which was a super upset. Not to be outdone, the Chinese women's team also defeated another strong team, the Czech Republic, and advanced to the second round.

Of course, this kind of super upset will attract the attention of the teams, but everyone's attention is not on the Chinese team, but on the eliminated Hungarian men's team and Czech women's team. As for those strong teams, their thoughts are probably similar to the Japanese team, thinking that the Chinese team helped them eliminate strong opponents, but no one realized that the real big devil was about to appear.

……

Finally, it was the day of the men's team final.

The head coach of the Japanese team could never have imagined that the opponent in the final turned out to be the Chinese team!

In the quarterfinals, the Chinese team really attracted the attention of the Japanese team, and then in the semifinals, the Japanese team went to watch the Chinese team's game in person, when the Chinese team's opponent was the host British team, and the result was that in the cheers and cheers of more than 5,000 spectators, the British team fighting at home was completely beaten.

After watching that game, the head coach of the Japanese team felt that the Chinese team's style of play was not a system at all compared with other countries. The kind of tactics of fast attack near Taiwan has never appeared.

"It's a strange way of playing, but it's just about dealing with Europeans, the Europeans' style of play is already backward, and our Japanese style of play is the most advanced!" The head coach of the Japanese team said secretly in his heart.

The Europeans of this era adopted the play of the far table chipping ball, while the Japanese used the long table long draw of the far platform, and the long draw produced the topspin ball, combined with the fast footwork, which was enough to restrain the Europeans from the far table chipping ball. Compared to the two, the Japanese have more power, faster speed, stronger spin, and more attacking power, and with a more threatening backhand rush attack, it is really powerful.

In fact, the Japanese team has a more familiar name for this topspin ball, that is, "arc ball", the curve ball is a table tennis technology invented by the Japanese, its essence is the topspin ball, the Japanese spent more than ten years, and gradually perfected the curve ball technology, but in the nineties, the curve ball technology eventually became a weapon for the Chinese team to attack.

Chen Qiang has experience in dealing with the curveball, because in the future Chinese team, the curveball is the most conventional weapon, and the Chinese team has naturally developed many ways to deal with the curveball. Now the Japanese team is only using the initial version of the curveball, and Chen Qiang can make a target at will.

Moreover, in history, the Japanese team's playing style of spinning the ball on the far platform was planted in front of the Chinese team's fast attack on the near stage. Especially after the Chinese team has formed a style of "fast, accurate, ruthless, and changeable tactics", it will be difficult for a single style of play to gain a foothold in the world table tennis arena.

……

Until the moment of losing the game, the head coach of the Japanese team still did not understand how the Japanese team lost!

The Japanese team was completely unable to understand the Chinese team's tactical play.

With a big score of 3-0, the Japanese team lost very facelessly, and what made the head coach of the Japanese team desperate was that the Japanese team had not won any game.

Japan's main player, Ichiro Komura, is even more confused, he has participated in many international competitions, and has defeated more than one world champion, but he has never seen the hope of victory as he did today. The opponent's fast attack on the near stage made him unable to adapt, whether it was serving or receiving, the opponent's wave of offense, he could not parry.

The topspin that the Japanese team is proud of is completely ineffective in front of the Chinese team, and the Chinese team can also play the topspin ball, and the spin is even stronger. As for the Japanese team's backhand rush attack, it has no effect in front of the Chinese team, and the Chinese team seems to have practiced how to deal with this kind of backhand rush attack.

What's more, Ichiro Komura is not facing China's No. 1 player.

According to the rules of the World Table Tennis Championships, the No. 1 player in the team competition should face the opponent's No. 2 player, and the front must be tied, and in the last tiebreaker, it will be the meeting of the ace players of both sides. However, the Chinese team only sent a No. 2 player to defeat Ichiro Komura, the ace player of the Japanese team.

At this time, Ichiro Komura suddenly realized that the next singles match may be no fun!

……

"In the just-concluded men's team final of the 21st World Table Tennis Championships, my country's players defeated the Japanese team with their outstanding performance and won the men's team championship of the World Table Tennis Championships!"

In the final of the men's and women's mixed doubles of the 21st World Table Tennis Championships, Chinese players Jiang Yongning and Sun Meiying easily defeated Japanese players Yoshio Tomita and Yoshiko Watanabe with excellent skills and tacit cooperation, and won the championship! Let's listen to the detailed report below......"

"In the semifinals of the men's singles of the just-concluded 21st World Table Tennis Championships, Chinese players Jiang Yongning and Fu Qifang both advanced to the finals, and the two Chinese athletes will meet in the finals, which also means that the Chinese team won the championship and runner-up of the men's singles of the World Table Tennis Championships in advance!"

On the radio, the news of the World Table Tennis Championships was broadcast on a rolling basis, and every time it was broadcast, it would cause bursts of cheers.

"The Chinese team has won all the championships of the World Table Tennis Championships!" When the news was announced, the whole country rejoiced!

New China finally has its own world champion!

This result was also expected by Chen Qiang, the advanced training and playing methods in the future, coupled with Chen Qiang's targeting of the technical playing style of this era, it is strange not to win! Table tennis is not track and field after all, this gap across the ages cannot be bridged at all, just like using a heavy machine gun against a nomad who bends a bow and shoots arrows, and if the nomad wants to continue to survive, he can only become singing and dancing!

When the Chinese table tennis team returned to China, of course, it was also warmly welcomed, commended by the leaders, and warmly praised by the masses, and the Chinese table tennis team completely became a hero and idol in the eyes of the Chinese.

In many places, there were even mass demonstrations, with people shouting "Learn from the Chinese table tennis team!" "Learn from the World Champions!" and other slogans to celebrate the triumphant return of the Chinese table tennis team.

The victory of the World Table Tennis Championships has also made table tennis the most concerned by the people.

At that time, the output of cement was not as high as that of later generations, and the table tennis table made of bricks and cement was also a luxury.

Playing table tennis has become the most popular thing, and learning table tennis is a craze. In institutions, factories, schools and other places, if you play table tennis well, you can look at it well, and there will be many people who will follow behind the ass to apprentice, hoping to get guidance.

There is no doubt that with the victory of the Chinese team in the World Table Tennis Championships, China has set off a national upsurge of table tennis, and table tennis has successfully evolved into China's "national sport"!
