Of all the major sports in the world, table tennis is the sport that is furthest from stimulant drugs.

The hardest hit areas of stimulus drugs are, first of all, athletics, which are in urgent need of explosive power, wrestling, weightlifting, etc., which are in urgent need of continuous strength.

Many track and field kings, including the crown jewel of athletes, the 100-meter male and female flyers, and the Russian pole vault queen with the most world record breaks, have fallen on stimulant drugs.

Tsarist Russia's large-tonnage wrestling and weightlifting have repeatedly entered the international blacklist.

In addition to strength sports such as athletics and wrestling, swimming is also a big hit by stimulant drugs, and the world's No. 1 flying fish before Phelps. Early stimulants were mainly hormones, which allowed female athletes to gain the strength and muscle presence of male athletes.

After hormones were banned, controlling the heartbeat and increasing lung capacity became the new trend, because long-distance swimming is a comparison of whose heart consumes less oxygen and can use more energy to swim.

There are many forces that always associate stimulant drugs with the national system to achieve their own criticism. So is it possible that commercial campaigns can avoid the scourge of stimulant drugs?

Apparently impossible!

Rugby, the NFL, the best international commercially operated tennis league, is also immune to the shadow of stimulant drugs.

This is related to the requirements of various sports on the physical state of athletes, among all sports, table tennis is the sport that requires athletes to have the most agile reaction and the most calm tactical analysis for a long time.

In table tennis, stimulants often have the opposite effect, they paralyze the nerves and stimulate the potential of the muscles, which is exactly the opposite of the requirements of table tennis.

Therefore, at this time, winning the table tennis championship can shut up all criticism!

Although table tennis was born in Europe more than 100 years ago, its technological development, audience and market depth have a deeper influence in Asia.

Japan's invention of the curved ball went down in history; China's fast attack has dominated the world table tennis arena for more than ten years; South Korean table tennis currently represents the highest level in Asia and stands tall in the world; Every time there is a competition in the Northern Dynasties, there are always amazing miracles born, and one or two peak figures are always killed to swear their existence.

In the era of the weakened dominance of the Chinese team, the top four in Northeast Asia stood out.

British Hong Kong Island, China Treasure Island, Xinjiapo, and Ma Mao Sia have adopted a poaching model in recent years. With the continuous output of Chinese players, these four teams are most familiar with the Chinese team's style of play, and even some players exist to restrain other players when they serve as sparring partners.

Kong Zhendong has personally seen it in his last life, although these team members are shadow-like existence in the eyes of foreign media, but they can take charge of any one of them.

In the 01 Osaka World Table Tennis Championships, Liu Guokun, who had survived as a sparring partner, staged a miracle, leaving the beautiful legend of "marrying Liu Guokun when you marry"!

Looking at Ye Xiaoya and the other fan girls, waiting to see China's appearance of winning the championship without suspense, Kong Zhendong couldn't help but say: "China's strength is not overwhelming compared to South Korea, the North Korean team Shenlong is not the end, except for Li Genxiang, we don't know anything about the strength of their other national players." In addition to these two hurdles, those former teammates on Treasure Island and Hong Kong Island are not easy to play! ”

In all table tennis events, the first competition is the men's team competition, which is highly concerned by the media of various countries, and it is recognized that the gold medal has the highest gold content.

Among the 36 national and regional teams participating in the Asian Games, 24 teams were sent to compete, while only 16 teams participated in the women's team competition, which shows that the competition in the men's competition is fierce.

The 24 men's teams are divided into eight groups, each of which plays two group games to determine the round of 16.

Although the Chinese team faces many challenges in East Asia and Southeast Asia, the group stage of Central Asia and West Asia is still abusive.

The team competition system of the Asian Games is the same as that of the World Table Tennis Championships according to the regulations of the International Table Tennis Federation, each team team is composed of five players, and each game is arranged according to the state and characteristics of the athletes.

If it is a hanging fight with a huge disparity in strength, the big score is 5:0, and the game can be ended early.

If the team is evenly matched and the score is played to the ninth game, often a team match takes more than six hours, and the audience can only persevere because of hysterical love!

The Chinese team had a smooth sail in the group stage, with a 5:0 game and a 5:1 game, and they were unstoppable and qualified first in the group!

The Chinese media and audiences were collectively excited.

It seems that after three years of trough, Chinese table tennis has stood up again!

Of course, it's just as if~~

Entering the knockout round, the Chinese team first faced the sniper of the Chinese Baodao team.

In the first game, the slow-burning Ma Wenhua had not yet entered the state, and he was completely blinded by Li Glacier of Baodao 21:13 and 21:16 in two cities!

Ye Xiaoya tried her best to cheer up, but in exchange for this result, she was inevitably depressed.

She didn't understand, "That's not right! This Li Bingbing is a complete treasure island person, and he is not from our national team, how can he know so much about Ma Wenhua's football path? ”

Kong Zhendong shook his head and said: "It's not just about understanding the ball road, it's about the ups and downs of the state, and the nodes of choosing tactics are well grasped. ”

Ye Xiaoya stared at the list of participants from all countries in her hand, and the male and female team members swept away, and said confusedly: "There is no such person on the list of the treasure island team!" ”

Kong Zhendong said with a wry smile: "I won't appear in the list, I understand Ma Wenhua's rhythm and tactics so clearly, and I grasp the nodes so accurately, I am definitely the world's top existence." It should be Chen Jing! Only she can do it. She should have married to Treasure Island! ”

Ye Xiaoya exclaimed: "You mean, Olympic champion Chen Jing? ”

In the Chinese table tennis scene in the late 80s and early 90s, Chen Jing was no less legendary superstar than Cheng Longcan.

The Chinese Olympic delegation suffered a rout in Hancheng in 88 and only won five gold medals, including two in table tennis, accounting for 40%, which can be called a great contribution.

The table tennis championship for the Chinese team was won by Cheng Longcan's men's doubles and Chen Jing's women's singles.

As the first singles queen after table tennis entered the Olympic Games, Chen Jing's international influence is significantly higher than that of Cheng Longcan.

However, 88 to 90 years was the trough period of national table tennis, with internal and external troubles, various contradictions, and concentrated outbreaks.

The law is the case with any sports team, when the team is going well, and when you win back-to-back games, all the problems and contradictions are covered up.

Once the team suffers a losing streak, all the contradictions and conflicts will erupt in a concentrated manner.

This situation is not unique to the Chinese team. Which of the top teams in the NBA doesn't win the championship when they win on a streak, and the locker room turmoil breaks out when they lose on a losing streak?

But for national table tennis, Chen Jing's departure from the treasure island will bring far more damage than a locker room group in the NBA!
