Su Nian's excellent performance in these two open championships made the coaching staff shine, and in the next half of the Asian Youth Championships and the World Youth Championships, the coaching staff decided to let Su Nian participate.

In the Asian Youth Championships in August, Su Nian won four championships: women's singles, women's doubles, mixed doubles, and team.

In October, the World Youth Championships, once again won the women's singles, women's doubles, and team championships, and was in the limelight for a while.

At the end of November, the ITTF world rankings were updated, and Su Nian never had any world rankings, and was airborne to the ninth in the world.

At a time when the outside world was most questioned about the construction of the women's table tennis echelon, Su Nian's birth was undoubtedly the most powerful answer to the outside world, and such results have far exceeded the previous coaching staff's expectations for her.

Media reports have also focused on this little girl who has just turned 16 years old, and various titles of "Purple Microstar from the Sky" and "Female Table Tennis Successor" are endless, and even some media have done an exclusive interview with Su Nian, interviewing Su Nian's coach, family, and friends since childhood, showing everyone the future stars of national table tennis through the lens in an all-round way.

But Su Nian did not get lost in this atmosphere of being praised and praised, and trained hard as always, she knew that her real difficulties were coming.

After completing the training camp in December, all the national table tennis players began to take a vacation, Su Nian has not gone home for a year, and he can't wait.

Su's father and Su's mother also missed her very much, and specially asked for leave to pick up Su Nian at the airport, as soon as she got out of the airport, Su Nian saw her mother and immediately rushed to her arms.

Su Nian's mother, Ms. Zhang, is a bold woman, when she knew that Su Nian wanted to play a career, she vigorously supported her, and did not want her daughter to study hard and get admitted to a good university like ordinary parents, for her and Su Nian's father, Su Nian's thoughts are the most important.

She was reluctant to let go when she saw her daughter, "Obediently, let me see, I've lost weight!" "Most mothers think that their children will be hungry and thin outside.

Father Su looked at the tired mother and daughter with envy, and still said, "It's thin, go home quickly, I'll buy more vegetables and cook a few more dishes that I like to eat." ”

"What do you want to eat?" Ms. Zhang pinched Su Nian's little face, and always felt that it didn't feel as good as before, so she decided to raise her daughter a little fatter.

Su Nian's eyes lit up, "Sweet and sour pork ribs!" During the training camp, the meals cooked by the cafeteria aunt were all for us to gain muscle, and they were not very delicious. ”

Su Nian has been hungry for meat for a long time, especially the food cooked by his parents, "I still want to eat noodles, I don't want to eat rice, I can only eat rice wherever I go to compete, I want to eat noodles." ”

Su's father and Su's mother couldn't cry or laugh, no matter what kind of results they achieved outside, in front of their parents, Su Nian felt that he would never grow up.

After staying at home for more than 20 days, Su Nian returned to BJ with a few catties of meat, and the 18-year schedule was about to begin, and this year Su Nian knew that he would not be as smooth as 17 years.

In March 2018, the new year's ITTF Tour started, the first stop, Singapore, just entered the main event, Su Nian drew Liu Ying, this time Liu Ying did not give Su Nian another chance, and defeated Su Nian 3:0.

April, Hong Kong, round of 16. ran into Yuan Dan again and lost the game 0:3 again.

[The signing of these two regiments is really, I suspect that the Table Tennis Federation has signed, how come the two times they met the main force as soon as they arrived at the main match, and this luck is not convincing. 】

[Who drew this lot?] 】

[She smoked it herself, hahaha, the luck of the dumplings is really not very good. 】

【Lucky Tour】

After losing the round of 16 in Hong Kong, Su Nian didn't feel sad, it was normal for her to not be able to beat the main force, but the women's table tennis head coach Wang Liang didn't think so, looking at Su Nian, who was still smiling after losing the game, he pinched Su Nian's ears angrily, "You still laugh, you sit in the coach's seat for me, watch other people play, and see how serious people are." ”

So Su Nian was pitifully pressed in the coach's seat, watching the game for a day from beginning to end, but this picture was captured by the camera, and a round face suddenly appeared in the middle of the audience of the coach and the leaders of the Table Tennis Federation, and the most important thing was that she was still smiling and listening to the coach.

[What's going on?] How could Su Nian be in the coach's seat, still smiling, shaking his head, Ding Mao didn't care? 】

[The news ahead, it seems that after Su Nian lost, Wang Liang punished her in the audience to watch a day's game, who knew that this baby was not afraid at all, and she chatted happily with Director Ding. 】

Su Niancai will not be afraid, she is a girl with a very pure heart, she only has a little white ball in her heart, she doesn't care who is around her at all, she is still happy that she has the opportunity to sit in such a good place and watch Jingxing's game.

[What's going on with Ding Mao? Isn't it what he said that there is no future for him? How did you get to Su Nian, he was still chatting with Su Nian]

[Can that girl compare with a stinky boy? ] The little padded jacket is different in the end. 】

"Look at Jing Xing, he has lost to Shang Zhang Yi I don't know how many times, but every time he meets him, he will still fight hard, and all the punishments for you are not because you lost, but no matter who you meet, you have to play your own level."

Ding Mao analyzed Su Nian while looking at the situation on the field, Su Nian nodded, she knew that she was going to play, but in the last few games, she had a feeling of being led by the nose by the other party.

Su Nian thought that this feeling was her own delusion, all she didn't tell her coach, at this time Su Nian's coach had just changed, and there was no tacit understanding between them, and the coach didn't find Su Nian's problem, which led to Su Nian's more tragic failure later.

In May, the draw in Germany was a disaster for the women's table tennis, almost all of them were crowded in one and a half districts, and Su Nian guarded the lower half alone, and the result of the battle in the first half of the district was the annihilation of the whole army.

In the semifinals, Su Nian met a new opponent - Taiwan's first sister, Fang Yafan.

Su Nian's coach at this time, Huang Leshan, was only assigned to Su Nian after the New Year, before going on the field, he told Su Nian that Fang Yafan's playing style was not as advanced as Su Nian, and he had fought in the arena for many years, and he had not fought with Su Nian before, so he would definitely study the playing style for Su Nian, and he told Su Nian that he should grasp the rhythm of the game at the beginning and use his own skills and tactics more.

But what I didn't expect was that as soon as I got on the court, the other party didn't give Su Nian a chance at all, and kept pressing Su Nian's backhand, Su Nian wanted to turn her forehand and had no chance at all, and soon lost the first game.

The coach saw the situation on the court, he arranged tactics for Su Nian in the middle of the game, first pressed the middle, and then adjusted the forehand, in the second game, Su Nian implemented this tactic very thoroughly, and pulled back a game.

In the third game, the opponent also adjusted quickly, changed his position, and suppressed Su Nian's backhand, making Su Nian make frequent mistakes.

The coach asked for a timeout, and he told Su Nian to be flexible, even if it was to hold a few more crickets, and then turn the forehand when he had the opportunity, don't be in a hurry to exert his strength, and be anxious to adjust the forehand, so that the rhythm of the game will always be moved by the opponent.

But after going on the court, Su Nian completely forgot the coach's tactical arrangement, she made a lot of mistakes that young athletes will make in the game, that is, she could only accept that she was in her own rhythm, and once the game did not go according to her own ideas, she would start to go up, and she would be completely trapped in the opponent's tactical intentions.

If the other party is also a young athlete, maybe Su Nian's emotions will not affect the overall situation of the game, but Fang Yafan has a lot of experience in the game, and after she saw Su Nian's emotions, she kept fighting with Su Nian with a backhand, and Su Nian finally lost the game 2:4.

Coach Huang took Su Nian abroad to play for the first time, he saw that Su Nian completely ignored the skills and tactics he had formulated on the field, blindly immersed in his own game emotions, and finally lost the game, his face was blue with anger, and the last ball landed, he didn't even wait for Su Nian to come down from the field, turned around and left directly.
