Recently, Fan Zhendong, the world's number one table tennis player, suffered a huge upset at the WTT (World Table Tennis Professional League) Singapore Grand Slam, losing to young player Lin Shidong, which made many netizens say "unexpected".
Because the video of Fan Zhendong appearing at Taylor Swift's Singapore concert was exposed before the game, some netizens criticized him for delaying training, which led to the defeat of the game. On March 17, Fan Zhendong posted a vlog and wrote a long article to formally respond to the star-chasing controversy.
Fan Zhendong’s vlog recorded the happy time spent with friends at Taylor Swift’s concert after get off work on March 8.
Fan Zhendong first wrote in a long article, "The performance in Singapore was not ideal, and I will continue to work hard in subsequent games." He said that the live concert video that was privately shared with a few people before the game was accidentally leaked, triggering a series of dispute. In order to restore the facts and put an end to the rumors, I personally posted a vlog and long article in response.
Swiftie's Singapore concert live
Fan Zhendong said: "I collected second-hand tickets at my own expense, and squeezed out three hours after the busy work two days before the start of the game to attend the coveted party of Swifties (nickname of Taylor Swift fans) around the world, "The End of Summer" Bridge" yyds (Eternal God)...Music knows no borders. Outstanding musicians such as TaylorSwift bring healing and confidence to everyone. I hope more people will open their hearts and feel this charm."
Fan Zhendong also emphasized, " On the field, I am an athlete trained by the country, and I have never slackened in my duty to win glory for the country for more than ten years; in the limited private time outside the field, I am just an ordinary young man, with my own normal hobbies and interpersonal relationships, and I will continue to abide by the law. Be your true self."
Regarding this, some netizens said
