On the day of the finals, Ye Hao woke up early, and after some washing, he walked out of the room and went to the restaurant. At the door of the restaurant, he met the eldest sister of the women's team, Da Wang Lan. Ye Hao greeted the other party politely, and was ready to enter for breakfast, after all, he was not familiar with Wang Lan, if it was his fellow senior sister Zhang Yiling, he could still chat a few words. But what Ye Hao didn't expect was that Wang Lan actually took the initiative to talk to him.

"Ye Hao, you can, you have ambition, I'm optimistic about you." After speaking, Wang Lan also winked at Ye Hao, looking like a person who came over.

Suddenly hearing such a sentence, Ye Hao's mind was a little confused, where is this. Does Wang Lan know that tonight's final is specially here to encourage me? But there's no need for this, they are all professional table tennis players, and he has also experienced several such competitions. However, Ye Hao still expressed his gratitude to Wang Lan for her concern.

After that, Ye Hao came to the restaurant, picked up a plate, and prepared to choose breakfast. The breakfast of the national table tennis is very hearty, made by a special chef, and it is excellent in both taste and nutrition. After Ye Hao selected a few foods such as bread, fried eggs, and milk, he walked towards a table. Sitting at that table was the first person Ye Hao knew in the national team - Wang Liqin.

"Brother Dali, it's morning!" Since the misunderstanding between the two was cleared up, Ye Hao was still very polite to the big brother in the table tennis world.

"It turned out to be Ye Hao, come and sit down."

After Ye Hao sat down, the two of them each began to solve the food in front of them. Just as Ye Hao was eating, Wang Liqin on the side spoke.

"You've been in good form this year, and it looks like you've booked a singles quota place for next year's Olympics. I can't be in shape for more than a year, alas, next year's Olympics are a bit mysterious! ”

Suddenly hearing Wang Liqin's complaint, Ye Hao was a little surprised. He looked up at Wang Liqin, only to find that the other party was also looking at him. Ye Hao actually saw a trace of envy in Wang Liqin's eyes, which made him a little surprised. Still, he spoke to comfort the other party.

"Brother Dali, you will definitely be able to participate in the Olympics next year! Seriously, your current strength is one of the best in our men's team, if you don't let you go, who will let you go? ”

Ye Hao knew that in the Athens Olympics in his previous life, the Chinese men's table tennis team sent Wang Liqin, Ma Lin and Wang Hao to participate in the singles competition. Now, of course, the most likely is Ye Hao, Wang Liqin and Ma Lin, the "trident", Wang Hao is still worse than the three of them, and it is estimated that he will have to survive until the capital Olympics to have a show.

After breakfast, Ye Hao was going to go back to his room to rest for a while, and on the way back, he met Wang Hao, who had just come back from outside. Seeing that Wang Hao's head was sweating like rain, and his clothes were wet and dripping, Ye Hao sighed in his heart, "It's really hard, I went out to exercise early in the morning, and I deserve to be a strong person who can enter the men's singles finals of the Olympic Games three times." ”

Wang Hao saw Ye Hao and walked towards him. Looking at the other party's childish face, Wang Hao was full of thoughts, "It's such a person who is younger than me, and he has already won two world championships, and he is only one short of completing the Grand Slam......"

Ye Hao looked at Wang Hao who came over, thinking that he had something to say to himself, but after finding that the other party arrived in front of him, he didn't open his mouth but wandered out of the world and didn't know what he was thinking. So Ye Hao opened his mouth first and asked, "Brother Hao, is there something wrong with me?" ”

"Oh, it's fine." Wang Hao, who came back to his senses, opened his mouth and said. "I just wanted to tell you that I'm going to catch up with you. My goal is also a Grand Slam! ”

Looking at the other party's firm eyes and sonorous words, Ye Hao was secretly complaining in his heart, "Why does everyone seem to be a little weird today, all looking for me to talk?" When did I become so popular. ”

With a stomach full of questions, after saying goodbye to Wang Hao, Ye Hao continued to walk towards the room. After returning to the room, Ye Hao turned on the TV and watched sports news. At this time, the CCTV Sports Channel was reporting the news of the ITTF Tour Finals, and Ye Hao paid attention to the TV and watched it carefully.

"Ye Hao, a Chinese table tennis player, performed well in the semi-finals with Sweden's dark horse Reenqvist, and won the game as strong as ever. After the game, Cai Pingping, the head coach of the Chinese table tennis team, and Liu Guoliang, the head coach of the men's team, both expressed their intention to train this young player with great potential and strength into China's third table tennis Grand Slam ......"

Hearing this, Ye Hao's heart was confused, although his goal was indeed a Grand Slam, but there was no need to "help" him shout it out so loudly, and it was such a sensitive period before the finals. Thinking about Wang Hao's performance, and then thinking about Wang Liqin and Wang Lan's words, how can Ye Hao not know what's going on now. He was cheated by Cai Ping Pong and Liu Guoliang, "No, I have to find them!" Cai Ping Pong forget it, go to the master first to ask for clarification. ”

Just do it, Ye Hao immediately went to Liu Guoliang's room, and the other party happened to be in the room. Liu Guoliang looked at Ye Hao, who was coming aggressively, of course he knew the reason, he smiled and let Ye Hao in.

"Master, what the hell is going on?" As soon as Ye Hao entered the door, he couldn't wait to ask.

"Isn't it just that you have set a small goal, what's the fuss?" Liu Guoliang replied lightly.

"Then you don't have to say it in front of the media." Ye Hao was still a little dissatisfied, Liu Guoliang's tone reminded him of a certain richest man who said that he would first set a "small goal" of earning 100 million, these two people are really the same and "embarrassed"!

"In fact, the reason why I mentioned this in front of the media is that I hope to give you some pressure and motivation at the same time, and secondly, I hope that you will become a catfish in the team and stimulate others." Liu Guoliang explained openly and honestly.

Listening to Liu Guoliang's words, Ye Hao couldn't help but complain in his heart, "It has indeed stimulated many people, at least my final tonight is even more difficult to play." ”

After being appeased by Liu Guoliang, Ye Hao returned to his room. He wasn't too angry or worried about this, anyway, the Grand Slam was originally his ultimate goal after being reborn, and it was not impossible to be made public like this. All the top athletes in their own sports aim for a Grand Slam and hope that they can be the first in their sports.

Therefore, after experiencing a little depression at the beginning, Ye Hao put this little thing behind him and wholeheartedly prepared for the final with Wang Hao at night. Now that he has set the goal of a Grand Slam, and since this idea has been known to the world, Ye Hao can't give up every competition, every championship, these victories are an important cornerstone on his way to achieving a Grand Slam.
