On the evening of July 11th, Beijing time, CCTV Olympic Channel broadcast the documentary "Blooming in Paris" of the Chinese women's table tennis team. In this 43-minute interview, it showed us the closed training in Chengdu and the World Table Tennis Championships in Busan. Highlights and the journey of the three major Olympic players Sun Yingsha, Chen Meng and Wang Manyu competing for the Paris Olympics. After watching this program, I feel particularly sorry for Sun Yingsha and little Shasha. The always strong and optimistic little girl cried, Ma Lin cried, Chen Meng cried, and Wang Manyu also cried. Why is this? It turns out that everyone is different.
First of all, let’s talk about Sun Yingsha and little Shasha. This child is competing in three events in the Paris Olympics. The pressure is self-evident. The program started with Shasha practicing four times a day. After three Olympic simulation games in one day, there was an additional team singles game of best-of-five games. Her opponent was Ba Yongbo, a player who played long-grain rubber that she had just lost in the third game. Shasha fell behind 7-10 in the deciding game and ultimately lost the game. After losing, Shasha felt a little aggrieved. She said that it was that point that suddenly hit her head. She felt that the last training session was over and she needed to vent, and then she cried. Shasha said that she actually felt that she was doing quite well, but maybe she was not so satisfied with the coaching aspect, so it may be true that in daily training including competitions, only by increasing the difficulty or increasing the challenge can she continue to to go strong.
You see, Sasha is very rational and clear-headed. She knows that only by increasing the difficulty and intensity in her usual training can she become stronger in the Olympics. The little girl is really tired. There was a mixed doubles match in the morning, a best-of-seven simulated singles match at 2:00 in the afternoon, and the third match was a singles match in a best-of-five team competition. It was over because he lost and Yong Bo had to fight again. This is not to mention that her head coach Qiu Yike has to give her extra training. Qiu Yike bluntly said that she cried once or twice before I exerted my strength, but sometimes I don't care about what I should ask for and what you complain about. I just listen to what you say. It can be seen that Qiu Yike is also very strict. Even though she is tired, Sasha will complain, but she will still do it because she knows that if her coach lets her go once, her opponents will not let her go easily in the Olympics or other competitions. .
Let’s talk about Ma Lin and Chen Meng. They cried because they lost in the Busan World Table Tennis Championships. Chen Meng admitted that he did not expect to lose to Hina Hayata, and then Wang Yidi also lost to Miu Hirano. Sasha finally won two games, and she could not lose to a 15-year-old kid in the final set. It's too much responsibility to lose two points. He is the oldest in the team. Ma Lin admitted that she was very scared. He said that there were quite a lot of ups and downs that day, and he couldn’t imagine that if something went wrong, it would be completely unimaginable for our entire team’s preparations for the Olympics. Moreover, losing to our main opponent, through such a game In the competition, I think everyone’s cohesion and fighting ability can finally reverse the situation in a desperate situation.
Actually, the editor Xinxi thinks that Liu Guoliang woke up Chen Meng to win that game. It turned out that Chen Meng herself said that she had been confused after losing. Liu Guoliang found her at the backstage training ground and she was still practicing her backhand. Liu Guoliang told her that the most important thing now is not training, but keeping her mind clear. Who are you! She is the women's singles champion of the Tokyo Olympics. Who is her opponent? Hina Hayata also lost, now it's a draw, even if she wins the deciding set, she's also a winner. In this way, Chen Meng gradually got out of that confused state.
As for Manyu's crying, it was after the Chinese Table Tennis Association optimized the selection method and formulated the rules for deducting points for losing foreign games. She said that she would cry while practicing in the gym before the Singapore Grand Slam. In fact, Very anxious. I want to do well too much, or the possibilities and opportunities are too few, so I must seize them in the last few battles. It can be seen how much psychological pressure Manyu is under. Although the last event fell short and Manyu failed in the competition for singles quota, she admitted that the result of the game was her own and she had nothing to complain about, and she was fully preparing for the Paris Olympic team competition.
Chen Meng said that he had passed the challenge to himself, and he was so happy that he never expected that he would have a second Olympic singles tour. Maybe this is competitive sports.I just feel so sorry for Manyu. Why does this rule only apply to losses in the last two games? If the losses of all the main players in the year are counted, will there be another result? What do you think? However, I still wish the three girls to win the championship in Paris. After all, everyone has put in a lot of hard work and sweat!
