The night before the game, Wang Qing called Su Nian specifically, "Feng Qing is different from your previous opponent, you should pay attention to it", she was afraid that Su Nian played too smoothly before, and her mentality could not be adjusted, Feng Qing, a veteran of the game, was different from the young player Su Nian had met before.

"Feng Qing's ball, the style of play is not very sharp, but it is very stable, the strength of the defense is not ordinary, it is best to surprise when you play, use some of your unconventional balls to break through the opponent's defense, disrupt the opponent's rhythm, so that you can play better."

"Tomorrow, you practice with Cao Shuya first, her playing style is more similar to Feng Qing."

Gao Xing is Su Nian's doubles partner this time, and lost to a South Korean chipper in the third round of the qualifying round, and the singles match has ended, and the remaining thing is the women's doubles with Su Nian.

The competition within the national table tennis is very fierce, but the competition outside the country represents the country, and everyone hopes that the Chinese team will win the championship, including all the players, coaches and even logistics.

Gao Xing is no exception, she is two years older than Su Nian, this is also her first time participating in the International Open, she was in a low mood after losing, this time Su Nian was in a room with her, seeing that Gao Xing was in a bad mood, Su Nian comforted her: "This chipper will also participate in women's doubles, if we meet, we will give you revenge at that time." ”

Gao Xing looked at Su Nian lying on the bed, comforting her while playing with her mobile phone, and finally laughed, "Revenge? I don't know if I can meet it? ”

"It's okay, even if there is no chance this time, they are the best women's doubles pair in South Korea, we will definitely be able to meet in the arena in the future", Su Nian winked at Gao Xing, "When the time comes, I won't leave a piece of armor", laughing as he spoke, revealing the dimples that were usually hidden by the fleshy face.

Infected by Su Nian's smile, Gao Xing poked Su Nian's dimples with his fingers, and his mood finally improved a little.

Unexpectedly, in a word, they really met South Korea's chipping combination in the women's doubles final, but this is all an afterthought, and at present, Su Nian wants to win Feng Qing's experience package.

On June 12, the women's singles quarterfinals began.

After entering the main competition, the venue is larger than the venue of the previous qualifying tournament, and major media including CCTV have also begun to broadcast, this time CCTV's broadcast commentary Yang Ying, a former world champion, her commentary is very passionate, always biased towards the youngster in the commentary, and is said to be a crooked ass by many veteran fans.

In the previous Asian Games commentary, she was obviously biased towards Jingxing, and was condemned by Zhang Jue's fans, but for Yang Ying, she originally hoped that the national table tennis echelon would be built better, so she preferred young players, especially impactful young players.

"Remember what I told you, you must control the rhythm of the game in your own hands", the coach on the sidelines of the game seized the time to tell Su Nian what to pay attention to in the game, "The first three boards can exert force when they see the opportunity, don't wait, the other party is not familiar with your ball path, play boldly." ”

Feng Qing once represented Singapore in the team event of the World Championships, and scored two points against the Chinese team, allowing the Chinese team to lose the championship of that World Championships. The team competition of the World Championships had a total of five sets, and winning two points meant that she defeated the two main players at the time, and Su Nian did not dare to take it lightly.

So he nodded obediently, thinking about the tactics arranged by the coach, and walked on the field with a calm face.

"Okay, ladies and gentlemen, now it is our Chinese teenager, 16-year-old Su Nian, this time she is going to play against Singapore's veteran Feng Qing, Feng Qing has been competing in the arena for many years, and has a lot of experience in the game, and our teenager Su Nian, this is her first time participating in an international competition, how she performs, let's wait and see."

In the first game, Su Nian chose to receive the serve, she likes to observe the opponent first, the first ball, the opponent serves to the left half of the table, Su Nian directly grabs the forehand, and the score is 1:0.

Yang Ying saw Su Nian's forehand for the first time, she was a little amazed, "This little girl's forehand has something, and it looks very comfortable to exert force", while speaking, Su Nian scored with another backhand.

"Oh yo! This backhand is also quite violent! ”

Holding each other, in the middle of the backhand, Su Nian suddenly changed the line, and the ball fell on Feng Qing's forehand, and he scored another point.

Yang Ying saw Su Nian, who was a small man on the court but playing so fiercely, and suddenly spoke, "How do I feel that this little girl gives me the feeling that she is Jing Xing, who has just debuted, has a fierce playing style, a changeable ball path, and is very calm on the court."

may be because Jing Xing's first international match was explained by Yang Ying, and she feels very strongly about it.

The score came to 6:2, Su Nian made a mistake on her backhand after receiving the serve, and jumped angrily, she reminded herself to concentrate.

Feng Qing served, first sent to the left half of the table, Su Nian slid to the left backhand to shoot back, the ball fell on the right sideline, but Feng Qing seemed to have calculated the landing point of the ball, and was already waiting on the right, a straight line, the score was 6:4.

Su Nian felt Feng Qing's strength, which was obviously much stronger than the opponent in the previous qualifying round, entered the game faster, and grasped the landing point and direction of the ball more accurately.

Su Nian said "Hi", she needed to mobilize herself more actively.

Feng Qing served, Su Nian hit back with a backhand, Feng Qing returned the ball again, touched the net, and landed on Su Nian's half-stage, Su Nian had already stepped back and was ready to hit the ball back with her forehand, but at the moment when the ball touched the net and fell on the table, she took a step forward and scored directly.

"Beautiful! The reaction is too fast", Yang Ying was very surprised by this second start to save the ball, "This ball looks like it is wiping the net to the ground, but the spin is very strong, you must hold the ball as soon as possible, otherwise it will go out of bounds, Su Nian handled it very well, too spiritual." ”

Another ball, Su Nian's forehand, backhand, second forehand, and three return balls all fell on the same point, putting Feng Qing out of position and making Feng Qing's return ball out of bounds.

"Wow!" The table and the commentary made an exclamation at the same time.

Su Nian's fast connection of the forehand and backhand made Yang Ying breathtaking, this is the first time she has seen someone in the women's line with such a good connection of the forehand and backhand.

The audience may not be able to understand Su Nian's technical characteristics, but this kind of fast connection of forehand and backhand makes Su Nian's game look very ornamental, and he can't help but exclaim.

Su Nian relied on the opponent's unfamiliar ball path, and used his forehand and backhand to quickly connect and successfully won the first game.

At the beginning of the second game, Su Nian took a big stride and another forehand exploded.

"Roar~", she shouted quietly.

"Beautiful, this ball is an momentum ball", Yang Ying looked at this ball, she felt that Su Nian was going to win this game, although it was the second game, but sometimes the aura on the court was a very strange thing, and the result could be felt during the game.

Sure enough, with the ball at the beginning of the second game, Su Nian began to use her forehand again and again, serving to attack, backhand, and forehand follow-up, completely occupying the rhythm of the game, and finally won the game 4:0 and entered the semi-finals.

Su Nian participated in the national youth competition for the first time, and lost to Jiang Yungu in the final, at that time Su Nian had not grown taller, just 1.5 meters tall, and faced Jiang Yungu who was already 1.7 meters in the finals for the first time, how could he not penetrate the opponent's defense, no matter how strong the children's explosiveness was, it was limited, and finally lost the game 2:4.

That year, Jiang Yungu entered the national team as the national youth champion one step ahead of Su Nian, and later entered the first team one step first, and is now the main team in the first team, and is focused on training, but Su Nian has just entered the first team, and is even still in the stage of being a sparring partner for the main team, the most intuitive and obvious is that the head coach of Jiang Yungu is already a meritorious coach Niu Yong who has brought out the Grand Slam, but Su Nian's head coach so far is still her coach Wang Qing when she was in the second team.

If it is not surprising, Su Nian's status in the team will always be suppressed by Jiang Yungu, that is, he will be the main force in the future, Jiang Yungu is also the No. 1 seed, and Su Nian is the No. 2.

The two-year-old gap, the gap of a whole ladder, everyone thought that Su Nian's journey to the first open tournament was basically over here.

But national table tennis is not a place where seniority is arranged, and Su Nian is not a person who will slowly go up step by step, performance and strength are everything in this team.
