Chapter 106: Please Call Me Master Xing!
Hong Lang can't accurately define Chen Weixing's style of play, because Chen Weixing has just turned 20 years old this year, and his style of play is still evolving and growing.
The game is about to start, although it is a battle of life and death, but the rest room of the Inner Mongolia team is much easier than that of the capital team.
A teenager with a simple smile is throwing a table tennis ball onto his racket continuously, having a lot of fun.
He is Chen Weixing, a one-sided chipper with forehand and backhand long rubber.
A teammate said to Chen Weixing curiously: "Master Xing, you are smiling so badly, are you going to make a big move against the capital team later?" ”
In the table tennis circle, it is generally described that long glue is loved by amateur masters, so 20-year-old Chen Weixing got the title of star master.
Chen Weixing bounced the ball and smiled lazily: "It's not like before." ”
The teammate hurriedly said: "Master Xing, your first opponent is Zhang Lei!" He is the main force of the national team, you should know that he is amazing. Huh, your rubber? ”
Chen Weixing smiled: "Did you just notice?" The feeling of the ball bouncing into it is not the same as before. It is because I am familiar with Zhang Lei. Zhang Lei is also too familiar with me. A chipper is lifeless if he is familiar with the opponent, so I have prepared a few different long rubbers today, which will be used in two games! ”
The teammate smiled: "I know that Xing Ye is holding his arms?" However, the arrangement of troops in the next two games will not be determined until the three games are over, and maybe Xing Ye won't need to play the fifth game at all! The opponent is a child in the third game, as long as Liu Zhen makes a little effort in the second game, we can win 3:0 directly. ”
In fact, there are many innovations in the team competition format of this national championship, but ordinary teams have not grasped the beauty of it.
In order to allow both sides of the team competition to better adjust their targeted tactics according to the state of the players. According to the rules of the competition, only the participants of the first three games will be provided before the match.
At the end of the three games, if it is 3:0, the game is naturally over. If it is not over, then the side that is behind by a large score can first arrange the candidates for the last two games, and only need to follow the rules of each person playing a maximum of two games and not playing two games in a row.
The leading side can only arrange the battle according to the personnel determined by the laggard, and in addition to the rules of playing a maximum of two games and not playing two battles in a row, it also needs to follow the rules that the players who have already played against each other and cannot repeat the battle.
The rules of this competition system are complicated, and at the same time, it is useless in the competition where the strength of the two sides is very different, so the coaches of each team are still used to arranging the order of participation according to the arrangement of No. 1, 2 and 3 singles before the start of the match.
However, in this game of similar strength, this set of rules comes into play.
If the capital team falls behind 1:2 in the first three games, in order to avoid Chen Weixing playing early in the fourth game and ending the game 3:1, the capital team can arrange Zhang Lei to play the fourth game.
Because Zhang Lei and Chen Weixing played in the first game, according to the rules, Chen Weixing can only play the fifth game.
It is precisely because of such variables and the existence of flexible troop arrangement that Coach Li Muhua only provided the list of participants for the first three games to the organizing committee.
The order of selection for the last two games is based on the progress of the first three games.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, when the flashing lights of thousands of fans and reporters flashed, Zhang Lei began to quickly push and block with Chen Weixing to adapt to the new ball.
Hong Lang began to explain: "Zhang Lei is in good spirits for this ball, and he looks excited when he pushes and adapts to the ball. This is a good phenomenon, the chipper has to take advantage of the opponent's slow heat, get into the groove faster, and take the lead. Chen Weixing's state is average, you see that he adapts to the ball and only uses his forehand backhand to push back and forth, and he has not tried the feeling of backhand chipping, which is not right. ”
Chen Weixing and Zhang Lei's practice ended quickly, and the game officially began, with Chen Weixing starting with five goals. He backhanded everything and sent straight down the spin short ball.
Zhang Lei is a little afraid of the rotation of Chen Weixing's backhand long rubber, but he has been training in the national team for a long time and often fights.
Hong Lang explained: "Chen Weixing uses a backhand long rubber to send a short ball, which is a regular routine, Zhang Lei and he are teammates of the national team, so it should be easy to return the ball." Hey? The return ball was obviously not suppressed, and it was introduced, Chen Weixing burst a board with his forehand and scored! Zhang Lei should have misjudged the rotation, it shouldn't be! ”
As soon as the ball was received, Zhang Lei felt wrong, the spin was completely different from the previous feeling, and then observed and observed.
Chen Weixing is not a traditional two-sided chipper, and when he has a forehand opportunity, he will not hesitate to score with a volley.
In the second ball, Chen Weixing served with a forehand backhand, and this time Zhang Lei received it very comfortably.
Hong Lang explained: "Okay, finally into Zhang Lei's rhythm of stalemate, Zhang Lei has to change first, the chipper defense is very good, the more shots, the more unfavorable it is for Zhang Lei." To change first~Oh~ Chen Weixing took the lead in changing, this time the backhand chipping racket type with a little side cut, the rotation will be more weird, Zhang Lei was caught off guard. ”
Ye Ying echoed beside him: "I heard that some teammates in the capital team gave 20-year-old Chen Weixing the nickname Star Master, which is quite appropriate, he has a changeable ball path, cunning and weird, like a court old man!"
Zhang Lei's feeling is completely different, the other party is not an old man at all, not even Chen Weixing, who is familiar to him, is completely a newcomer to play, and the arc and rotation cut out of the backhand are completely different from the national team.
Could it be that the rubber has been replaced?
Long rubber, positive rubber, reverse rubber, and anti-arc rubber are just very general rubber classifications.
Even if it is a long rubber, the slight variation in the diameter and height of the particles on the surface is completely different from the two types of rubber.
Most players will lose the game if they change the rubber even a little bit.
But there are also some weirdos, who are playing with several kinds of rubber during training on weekdays, although not all of them are proficient, but they are better than variety.
Chen Weixing is such a weird guy. Zhang Lei adapted to his backhand rubber and adapted to the whole game.
After losing the first game because he was not familiar with Chen Weixing's new rubber, Zhang Lei took the initiative to adjust his playing style in the second game according to the adaptation results of the first game and won the next game with difficulty.
In the third game, Chen Weixing saw that the role of his backhand rubber puzzle had disappeared, and he instead played other specialties, that is, the connection change of the forehand and backhand.
Compared to the traditional two-sided chipper, his forehand arc is definitely explosive, and his skillful mid-range is often very deceptive.
Chen Weixing carried a half-high ball in the middle of the board with his forehand, and Zhang Lei, who was cheating, made a diagonal attack, in fact, whether it was a forehand backhand pull or a backhand chip, he was ready.
Because the backhand slash does not need to do the force action in advance, it is often a leisurely work.
If Zhang Lei is a slash forehand, it would be better, the force action is smaller, and the faster reverse pull has been waiting for a long time?
Chen Weixing won a game by relying on special rubber, and after the rubber was adapted to lose points, he immediately relied on the forehand and backhand to completely win Zhang Lei, reflecting the skillful technique and fickle tactical literacy.
