Chapter 39: Mockery and Slap in the Face

At the end of the first stage of the team competition, the capital team successfully advanced to the round of 16. The main selection of men's singles was launched, and Ye Hao met a strong opponent in the first round, Xu Huanghuang of the Liaoning team.

Although he is only a 19-year-old player, Xu Huanghuang has firmly sat in the position of the first master in the Liaoning team, he became famous at a young age and has an arrogant personality, just because he violated the team rules at the beginning of this year, he was returned to the provincial team by the national second team, so Ye Hao and he have not met in the national team.

In the pre-game preparation of the Liaoning team, the coach focused on introducing Ye Hao to Xu Huanghuang and warned him to take it seriously, although the opponent is young, he has entered the national second team, and he has just won the Asian Youth Championship, and the momentum is flourishing.

After Xu Huanghuang heard it, he didn't think so, and was a little jealous, who let him be expelled from the national team, but the opponent is now a member of the national second team. He thought indignantly, "Is it necessary for the coach to take such a little kid so seriously?" I got into the national team before him. ”

On the day of the game, Ye Hao was warming up before the game, and there were conversations of several people next to him.

"Brother Xu, you were lucky in the first round, the opponent was just a little hairy child, and it was proper to enter the second round."

The man named Brother Xu replied, "That's not necessarily, but they are Asian champions, maybe there are two brushes." After speaking, he deliberately glanced in the direction of Ye Hao.

I only heard someone say, "Isn't it humble again, being too modest is pride, you can't be like this, brilliant!" What is the winner of a youth competition, now it is a national championship, it is an adult competition, what can a little child mess with! Another young man in his twenties deliberately said loudly, for fear that Ye Hao would not be able to hear.

"Hehe, that's good for you, Brother Li. When the time comes, I will definitely teach the other person how to play! The man surnamed Xu said unceremoniously at this time.

Ye Hao didn't know at this time that the other party was deliberately coming to provoke, and deliberately ran in front of him to say these words. The one called Brother Xu is probably his opponent in the game, Xu Huanghuang.

"Hmph, wait until the game is over, see how brilliant you are!" Ye Hao was ruthless in his heart. The opponent used such a low-level means to deliberately taunt before the game, didn't he just want to disturb his emotions. He won't be so easily fooled, Ye Hao can be regarded as experienced in this situation. No matter how much cruel words you put before the game, it is not as good as slapping your face with the result of the game, and you can laugh until the end is the real laugh!

Xu Huihuang, with his right hand straight shot against the rubber arc circle, is characterized by fast and smooth movements, flexible pace, and outstanding topspin ball holding ability. In general, his strength is good, he has arrogant capital.

Ye Hao VS Xu Huanghuang The game officially began!

Although he said cruel words before the game, Xu Huanghuang on the field was not impatient, played very easily, and even looked a little broken. But if Ye Hao really thought that the opponent was fighting blindly, then he would be fooled, in fact, Xu Huanghuang made very few senseless mistakes.

Of course, Ye Hao will not relax, and the first ball between the two is inseparable. After seven or eight back-and-forth pulls on the forehand, Ye Hao lost this point first.

In the next two goals, the two sides continued the pattern of the first goal, the curve ball was pulled against each other, and the result was to win one point each. Xu Huanghuang led 2:1.

4:3, 6:4, 8:7, as the score continued to rise, although Xu Huanghuang only suppressed Ye Hao with a weak score, he could always maintain the lead.

The players of the Liaoning team on the field were all relaxed when they saw this.

"It seems that Brother Xu still has an advantage in this game, even if the opponent is from the second national team, after all, he is too young, how can his experience be compared with Brother Xu." The one who spoke was one of the few people who had mocked Ye Hao with Xu Huanghuang before.

But just after he said this, the style of painting on the field suddenly changed. Ye Hao's attack became extremely ferocious, and the forehand was violently attacked, and the strength was quite sufficient. Xu Huanghuang on the opposite side didn't expect that he was continuously killed by Ye Hao and scored, 9:8, Ye Hao overtook him.

It turned out that after gradually figuring out the opponent's playing style and strength, Ye Hao no longer hesitated and took the initiative to start attacking. Xu Huanghuang's advantage is that he has a good stand, but the disadvantage is that once he encounters an opponent who is fiercer than him, he often can't stand it and is easy to collapse.

Ye Hao seized this point, no longer softly playing with the opponent to hold the ball, but chose to hit hard, break ten thousand laws with force, and smash Huanglong!

When it came to the key score, Xu Huanghuang cautiously sent a backhand downspin short ball, he didn't dare to take the initiative to provoke trouble anymore, the opponent's attack was too sharp and he couldn't resist it.

Ye Hao is becoming more and more courageous, the forehand in the table picking, although the force is not large, but the speed is fast, the angle is tricky, and the landing point of the ball is the center of the table to chase the position. Sure enough, this drop point made Xu Huanghuang twist very differently, not with a forehand, not with a backhand, and finally missed the opportunity because he thought about it for too long, and he didn't touch the ball.

At 10:8, Ye Hao scored three points in a row and got the game point.

The next ball was Ye Hao's turn to serve, and the backhand was half-spinned. Aren't you good at topspin? Then I'll deflect the underspin ball. If you like to hold each other, then I'll send a half-out to see if you dare to take the initiative to attack. Ye Hao's plan is not to let the opponent receive the ball and play comfortably.

After Xu Huanghuang judged the characteristics of the opponent's serve, he fell into a tangle, whether to defend a board safely, or take the initiative to attack a board? Except for tangled or tangled!

In the end, he chose to pull the ball up and play to his advantage. It's a pity that the hesitation of receiving the ball made his return a little late, and the swing action was not sufficient, resulting in a weak spin of the return ball.

Ye Hao decisively started to exert his strength, hit a critical shot, smashed the ball, and won the first game 11:8.

In the following games, Ye Hao was completely in control of the situation. The situation on the court is clear at a glance, 11:4, 11:5, Ye Hao won two games in a row, turning the total score into 3:0, and the two sides entered the deciding set.

At this time, the camp of the Liaoning team was gloomy, and the relaxed atmosphere at the beginning of the first game was no longer there. The team members who deliberately mocked Ye Hao with Xu Huanghuang were silent at the moment, but their hearts were very complicated.

Some people are complaining that Xu Huangguang can say big things, and he becomes cowardly as soon as he gets on the field. Some people feel ashamed, their faces are hot, and they go to taunt their opponents before the game, but now they are slapped in the face.

Xu Huanghuang in the game on the field felt even more uncomfortable, he thought that the game he would win was now a must-lose situation, coupled with his pre-game provocation, the current backwardness is really a naked irony!

Ye Hao didn't care what the other party thought, he only knew that there were 2 points left, and he could win the game. With a long forehand spin, he can now play with his opponent with peace of mind, because the opponent has completely collapsed. Sure enough, without waiting for Ye Hao to start exerting his strength, Xu Huanghuang took the initiative to send the head.

At 10:3, match point was up.

In the next ball, Xu Huanghuang served, what he was thinking about now was not what kind of ball to serve, what tactics to adopt, and how to save the game, but to quickly lose and leave, the sooner the better.

So, Xu Huanghuang made a service error and sent points directly, 11:3, Ye Hao won the fourth game, swept the opponent, and advanced to the second round of the singles main event.

Xu Huanghuang, who lost the game, did not shake hands with Ye Hao after the game, and left the court in a hurry.

Looking at Xu Huanghuang's embarrassed appearance, Ye Hao couldn't help but think, "It's another person who took the initiative to send it to the door and ask to be slapped in the face, why bother?" ”
