Table tennis: Swinging the racket billions of times, achieving a grand slam

Chapter 161 His ball is fierce, so let’s be more fierce than him!

Chapter 161 His ball is fierce, so let’s be more fierce than him!

“Time!”

Following the referee’s reminder.

The pause ends.

After high-fiving his coach, Felix walked toward the court with a towel.

A casual glance.

The big screen showed the score of the second game between him and Chen Jin.

7: 1.

The light is diffuse and extremely dazzling.

Since Felix debuted, he has experienced countless fierce battles.

He has also played against the main players of the Chinese team.

Ma Long, Fan Zhendong, Lin Shidong, Wang Chuqin…

There are wins and losses.

But I have never felt so frustrated as in today’s game.

Perhaps, it’s because the other person is younger than me.

Maybe, it’s because the other person also has a straight face.

After two games, his opponent seemed to know his playing style very well and had already calculated his tactical ideas for each ball.

Even more terrifying.

No matter how you change your tactics, the opponent can adapt to the situation, adjust quickly and resolve the situation calmly.

“Is it because my playing style is too stereotyped?”

Felix thought to himself, “Has Chen Jin already studied it thoroughly?”

If you think about it, this isn’t surprising.

The opponent plays with a straight-blade style and is very strong.

In addition, there is Wang Hao, the master of straight-blade horizontal hitting, sitting outside the court to offer advice and suggestions.

Felix’s every move on the field could not escape the two men’s hawk-like eyes.

“Coach Morin asked me to step down, but my opponent might have guessed that.”

Felix’s mind raced, “When the whole world thought I was going to quit, I should have been more proactive and changed my route.”

“Correct!”

“Something has to change.”

“Hoo ho ho…”

Felix returned to the table and jumped a few more times to regain his spirits.

Then, he bent down.

He pushed up his glasses and looked up at Chen Jin.

“Da da da, da da da…”

Toss the ball.

Lead the beat.

Chen Jin hooks the ball.

Right half of the stage.

Short ball down the side.

Felix predicted the landing point, stepped forward, raised his elbows and lowered his shoulders, and twisted diagonally inside the table.

Attack Chen Jin’s forehand at a wide angle.

“Ok?”

Chen Jin raised an eyebrow.

Obviously, he didn’t expect Felix to run to this position and do a backhand twist and pull.

The mind has not changed.

He pushed his feet suddenly, crossed his steps, flew to the forehand, and pulled back to the middle.

Felix quickly adjusted his pace, got into position early, and made a diagonal counterattack.

The angle of this ball was so great that Chen Jin was caught off guard.

It was too late to defend the backhand position.

“Cuo Le!”

“Zhu–“

Finally he hit a beautiful ball, Felix clenched his fists and roared, veins bulging.

Trying his best to vent the frustration that has been suppressed for a long time.

Morale boosted.

Even Chen Jin had to admit that Felix’s reaction and mobilization to this ball were worthy of his sixth place ranking in the world.

However, the win or loss of a mere ball did not cause any change in Chen Jin’s mentality.

With an expressionless face, Chen Jin walked to the left side of the table and wiped the sweat off his face.

He caught the ping-pong ball thrown by the referee.

Smashed it to the ground.

After turning his head to look at Felix, Chen Jin served the ball.

Hook.

Short on the lower side.

However, there have been some changes in the landing point.

Right of center line.

Felix steps forward and makes a short pass.

“laugh!”

Wiped a dead net.

Even if Chen Jin started faster the second time, he was unable to save the situation.

“Sorry.”

With a hint of apology, Felix immediately raised his hand.

3: 7.

After the timeout, Felix scored two points in a row.

It seems that luck is on my side.

It also boosted Felix’s confidence.

Change sides to serve.

Without casting the spell, Felix served the ball directly after getting it.

The move may seem hasty.

In fact, to a certain extent, this is also Felix’s tactic.

On the one hand, you can quickly get into your own state and rhythm, and on the other hand, you can drag your opponent into your own rhythm without knowing it.

The moment of serving.

A sharp light suddenly refracted from under the lens.

Felix immediately launched a quick attack and attacked Chen Jin in the middle.

I originally thought that this ball could stop Chen Jin.

Unexpectedly, Chen Jin had already expected this.

The twist and pull at the beginning had already exposed Felix’s thoughts.

“This guy wants to give it a try.”

Therefore, I was secretly on guard.

Watch the ball carefully.

As expected.

Felix chose to steal the opportunity, which was exactly what Chen Jin wanted.

“Snapped!”

Chen Jin quickly turned sideways and rushed forward with his forehand.

The shot went straight through Felix’s middle before Felix could even react.

3: 8.

Seeing Chen Jin move sideways so decisively, he knew that the other party had seen through his tactics.

“If stealing doesn’t work, then change again.”

This time.

Felix honestly served a short forehand ball without rotation.

Adjusting the board shape and controlling it with his hands, Chen Jin gently swung it short.

Felix was much calmer and calmer, and swung back to Chen Jin’s small triangle on the right half of the table.

“It’s a bit high!”

With murderous intent suddenly gathered in his eyes, Chen Jin leaped up and swung straight.

Although the return speed is not fast, it is extremely confusing.

Felix was shaken again.

But thankfully the response was quick.

When he was defending with his backhand, Felix almost took the ball away.

Chen Jin couldn’t recover in time, and before he could stand firmly, he pulled the ball hastily and hit the net.

8: 4.

After the timeout, we recovered three points.

“Cuo Le!”

Felix’s confidence soared and his mentality gradually stabilized.

“This timeout was crucial. Felix adjusted quickly and showed his touch.”

Xu Xin frowned slightly, with a look of worry on his face. “Although we are ahead in the score, Chen Jin must find a way to curb Felix’s momentum of chasing points.”

“Correct.”

Cheng Jingqi nodded and said, “After the break, Felix’s tactics have obviously changed a lot. He avoided a head-on bayonet fight with Chen Jin and instead focused on the landing point and control.”

“It’s Chen Jin’s serving round. He should make some adjustments in his serving.”

Yu Diyang said.

“good.”

Xu Xin watched the game intently, “The serve needs to change. It depends on what Chen Jin thinks.”

“Hey, the serve has changed as expected.”

“High throw.”

“This serve…why does it feel like a chef’s?”

The words have not yet fallen.

Felix stepped forward and tried to make a short pass.

laugh–

Eat and turn, cast the net.

“I ate the serve again.”

Xu Xin smiled and said, “Chen Jin’s high toss serve is very skillful. There must be a chef behind him who gave him some advice.”

“No matter who gives the instructions, as long as the opponent can eat the serve, it’s a good shot.” Cheng Jingqi said with a smile.

“It’s already nine to three.”

Xu Xin said, “My friend, this game is probably a sure win.”

“Chen Jin serves again.”

“Another high throw of the kitchen’s cooking spirit.”

“Felix wants to play short… Oh no, he got hit again.”

“I rubbed it halfway up.”

“Bang! Chen Jin rushed forward mercilessly.”

“Ten to four, Chen Jin got the game point in the second game.”

Xu Xin smiled happily, all his previous worries gone. “Felix must be feeling miserable. He finally managed to get back a few points, but they were lost so quickly.”

“I guess it’s because it’s almost time for dinner and I’m a little hungry.”

Yu Diyang laughed and said, “But the game isn’t over yet, and we have no food to eat, so we can only eat something else.”

“Hahaha……”

Xu Xin laughed heartily, “It seems there is nothing wrong with it.”

“Game point in the second game, let’s see how many game points Felix can save.”

“Felix serves.”

“Stealing long——”

“suicide?”

Xu Xin was stunned for a moment, “What’s going on? Is this guy’s mentality broken again?”

11: 4.

Chen Jin won another victory.

The overall score was 2:0, with three match points in hand.

Moreover, in the first two games, Chen Jin suppressed the current world number one player in terms of both strength and speed.

The audience burst into thunderous applause.

“Played well.”

Wang Hao was all smiles.

Originally, he expected that Felix would retreat to the table to compete with Chen Jin in backhand ability from mid-range and long range.

Unexpectedly, Felix knew he was no match for his opponent and simply backed off.

He decisively gave up the backhand stalemate and changed the line, hoping to open up the situation from the landing point.

Fortunately, Chen Jin’s ability to respond was extremely quick. He immediately changed his serve when Felix’s touch was about to warm up.

Felix’s idea of ​​catching up was completely nipped in the bud.

“very good.”

Wang Hao said, “It’s the third round now. Let’s try to win it in one fell swoop.”

“This could be the last round. I can tell with the soles of my feet that Felix will definitely give it his all and fight hard.”

“So, make sure to keep a close eye on his long balls.”

“He’s fierce in the game, so we should be more fierce than him. Don’t be timid, don’t be soft-hearted, use force when necessary, and rush when necessary.”

Although it was just off-field guidance, Wang Hao’s words were filled with murderous intent.

His expression was serious and his eyes were fierce.

It was as if he couldn’t wait to pick up the racket and go on the court to kill the enemy himself.

“understand!”

Infected by Wang Hao, Chen Jin also became murderous.

Moreover, every word Wang Hao said was like a jar of honey, touching his heart.

If it were other coaches, with such a huge advantage in hand, the tactics they would arrange would mostly be based on the four words “steady and steady”.

But Wang Hao is different.

It perfectly fits with Chen Jin’s philosophy of “fighting violence with violence and stopping killing with killing”.

Wang Hao continued, “With your strength, no matter what tactics the opponent uses, we will fight him the way he wants to fight. If he wants to compete in speed, we will compete in speed. If he wants to hit the target, we will hit the target.”

“We don’t have to be afraid of him at all.”

“When he serves, if it’s a short ball, you can directly hit his backhand long, forcing him to compete with you for topspin. Don’t fight with him for too long. Be steady first and then adjust. Suppress his backhand in the first two shots, and tear his middle in the third shot. Don’t hesitate at all. It doesn’t matter if you make mistakes.”

“Of course, Felix is ​​no ordinary player, he is also very good at changing lines.”

“So you must keep your eyes on the landing point.”

At this moment.

The referee raised his hand to remind: “Time.”

“Keep your eyes on the ball!”

“When you’re in a stalemate, watch your forehand.”

“Note the continuity.”

“Pay attention to the connection.”

“come on!”

After watching Chen Jin walk towards the competition venue with firm steps, Wang Hao sat down with his arms folded across his chest.

I don’t know.

The off-field guidance he had just given to Chen Jin was heard clearly by the online audience in the clear live broadcast without commentary.

“I go!”

Xu Xin was stunned. “No, when did Brother Hao’s off-court coaching become so fierce?”

“We can fight the opponent however they want to fight… I feel a little excited when I hear this.”

Not just him.

The other two people in the live broadcast room were also shocked by Wang Hao’s words.

“Brother Xin, when you were playing in a competition before and had such a big advantage, did Coach Qin tell you the same thing?”

Yu Diyang asked.

“No way.”

Xu Xin said, “Almost all coaches will ask you to play steadily, don’t get carried away, reduce mistakes, and play steadily.”

“indeed.”

Cheng Jingqi interrupted, “Besides, in my impression, Brother Hao is a gentle and refined person, and he usually speaks very gently… I didn’t expect that he would be so murderous this time.”

“I guess the scorer.”

Xu Xin smiled and said, “Chen Jin’s fighting style can be fast or violent, it is not static.”

“This gives the coach a lot of room for adjustment in his tactical arrangements.”

“Brother Hao said that it has been a long time since we played such a rich game. Can’t we be a little more ruthless?”

As he spoke, Xu Xin stood up and stretched his muscles.

“I wanted to go to the bathroom.”

“But after hearing what Brother Hao said, I realized that this game must be very exciting and it would be a pity to miss it.”

“Oh, forget it.”

Xu Xin sat down again and said, “Hold it for a while.”

“I believe Chen Jin should be able to win this game quickly.”

His eyes turned.

The game has begun.

Felix served first.

This time, he also changed his serving style.

Hook serve to the forehand straight line.

“Half-stage?”

Chen Jinzheng wanted to snatch it.

Haven’t made any move yet.

“wrong!”

“It’s an inside ball!”

Chen Jin reacted in time, started again, and swung back to the stage.

I have to say, Felix’s hook serve is really something.

There was no body or head to block it, and his left hand was retracted quickly, spinning in an arc, which caused Chen Jin to make a slight misjudgment.

Felix backhands diagonally.

Chen Jin pushed forward and tore back.

“Snapped!”

“Snapped!”

The two men stood near the middle of the table and fought backhand.

Having learned from the experience of the first two games, Felix knew the horror of Chen Jin’s backhand.

Once you enter the backhand multi-board stalemate stage, it will be too late to change the line.

It is necessary to change the line before Chen Jin starts to attack backhand.

Think of this.

The hands move according to the heart.

Felix turned his wrist and changed the landing point while increasing the force and tearing faster.

However, due to the extremely high quality of Chen Jin’s counter-tear, Felix did not dare to take the risk of changing to a straight line.

Therefore, the change in landing point is not very large.

Chen Jin adjusted his steps slightly and took advantage of the situation to attack Felix in the middle.

The angle of this route is greater than Felix’s route change.

Felix quickly crossed his wrist and wiped the ball with his backhand.

But the quality is not high.

“Snapped!”

Chen Jin’s forehand shot hit the ball diagonally into the corner.

Felix was unable to save the ball.

0: 1.

“Pretty!”

“nice shot!”

In Xuperman’s live broadcast room, Xu Xin and two other people applauded at the same time.

“Chen Jin’s strength is too strong.”

Xu Xin looked envious, “It’s just like what Brother Hao said, you can beat me any way you want, I’m not afraid of you at all.”

“Backhand tear, stalemate change line, you use all your moves, but still can’t break through the opponent.”

“As a result, once they exert their strength, you are gone.”

“In this match, it’s not that Felix is ​​not strong, but his opponent is too strong.”

“Originally, I was wondering if I would have a chance to compete against Chen Jin in the National Championships.”

Xu Xin smiled bitterly, “Now it seems that I should not bring disgrace upon myself, lest I lose my reputation in later years.”
