The big devil in table tennis

Chapter 127 Athletes Visit China
"Jianhua, don't say that what Coach Xu cooks is delicious!"

Lin Hui and Jianhua couldn't wait to eat the dried fish after they brought it back from Xu Xin, and the more they chewed, the more they ate.

"Yes! It's delicious, you forgot, Coach Xu is afraid that we won't be able to eat well in the cafeteria, and we often go to their house to eat small stoves if we don't have enough to eat. Coach Xu's house didn't dare to buy meat for a month."

"Yes, at that time, whenever I went to Coach Xu's house, I could eat two big bowls. Every time Coach Xu's house made a few of us eat up the pot, I miss that time so much!"

"Who said no?!"

When they were in the provincial team, they were often called by the coach to eat at home. Every time they went, coach Xu would cook for them and cook for them. They didn’t need any help from them. They only needed to chat with the teacher’s wife on the sofa. That's fine, every time the teacher's wife treats them like children, she will bring out some delicious snacks for them to eat. Sometimes they really miss the good old days.

When I came to the national team, it was a mechanical training every day. I had to practice hundreds of times and thousands of times in a row. There was no shortcut to go, and I could only practice infinitely.

I really miss those years and coach Xu's craftsmanship!I miss Coach Xu's delicious meals even more.

They can only go to the provincial team if they win the game in the national team as soon as possible. Now they can only practice more and participate in the national team game one day earlier. I heard that the World Table Tennis Championship will be held this year, but I don’t know if there will be a few of them to participate.

"Jianhua, I heard that the World Table Tennis Championships will be held in the second half of this year!"

"It's great that we finally get to play internationally."

Anyone who comes to the national team is an elite selected from the provincial team. When they were in the provincial team, they just wanted to play well and enter the national team. Now they are in the national team and they just want to enter the World Table Tennis Team. Play their balls all over the world, let other countries know that there is a player in China with their name in it.

I used to think it was out of reach, but now they are approaching their lifeline step by step. All of them are waiting for this moment. If they want to participate in the World Table Tennis Championships, they must be selected from the first and second teams of the national team. Obviously, if you want to stand out among so many people, you still have to test your strength.

I heard from other old players that to participate in the World Table Tennis Championships, no matter whether it is an old player or a new player, they have to compete. The winning players will have the opportunity to compete in the World Table Tennis Championships.

Lin Hui knows that it is very cruel to come to the national team. Newcomers are replaced. The national team only needs capable players who can win glory for the country. team.

Every team member comes to the national team to practice every day and night. I am afraid that they will be worthless and be dismissed by the national team. The reality is very cruel. Every time the national team plays, some people will stay and some people will leave.

It seems that he and Jianhua must strengthen their training in the next training, otherwise they really don't know if the national team will still have their names tomorrow, or whether the clothes they are wearing can continue to be worn.

"Jianhua, talk to Wenya, our training will be strengthened next, don't let Wenya get misunderstood. We must prepare for the World Table Tennis Championships in advance, and I don't want us to be separated."

"Okay, I'll talk to Wen Ya, let's strengthen our training."

Jianhua understood Lin Hui's meaning. The national team has always been very cruel, always retaining useful people, not only for himself, but also for Lin Hui and Wenya. He will practice hard.

"We have been training hard for several months, and only by showing good results can we not waste the little fish that Coach Xu brought us?!"

Lin Hui didn't forget to eat some small dried fish while talking. "Well, delicious!"

"Yes! Coach Xu is so kind to us. If we don't get good grades, we will be sorry not only to Coach Xu, but also to Xiao Yugan."

After Lin Hui said it was delicious, he picked up another one and continued eating, not forgetting to mutter a few words while eating.It is true that the food made by Coach Xu Zuo is so delicious that he couldn't help but eat two more bites.But you can't eat too much of delicious food, it will be gone after you eat it, so you still have to save some.

"Lin Hui eat less, why miss the good old days after eating."

"Yes, I don't eat it. I want to save it up and eat less for a day."

Jianhua's conversation is getting more and more interesting now, since he met Wenya, great changes have taken place, and Lin Hui thinks that Jianhua has really become more and more cute.

Thinking of when the man in front of him became cute, he couldn't help but want to laugh.

Seeing Lin Hui's inexplicable smile, Jianhua couldn't help asking curiously, "What are you laughing at?"

"Laugh before going to bed and live to 99."

Jianhua couldn't help but laugh out loud because of how funny these words came out. Tired of laughing, the two of them gradually fell asleep.

In the following days, Lin Hui and Jianhua discussed strengthening training. Every day, he would get up early and run at dawn, and rest after dinner in the evening, and continue running.

Playing international competitions requires not only improving your skills, but also your physical fitness. There have been many situations in international competitions. Sometimes it depends on your skills, and sometimes it depends on your physical strength. It depends on who has the physical strength. Play the ball to the end.

As long as they can hook up with Sai, Lin Hui and Jianhua don't want to let it go, and they will try to practice.

After a week of training, they felt very effective, their stamina improved a lot, and their playing proficiency also improved a lot. While they were training, Coach Wu brought five foreigners to the training ground.

Three men and two women, one of the men is friendly with Coach Wu, it may be a coach, standing next to the coach is wearing a different overalls from the other four, Coach Wu and foreign coaches say a word The young woman was standing on the side talking. It seems that this woman is an interpreter, so the other two men and one woman are athletes, playing table tennis like them.

Yellow hair, high nose, eye color is different from our Chinese eyes, this is the first time Lin Hui met foreign friends, their images flashed before his eyes, they came to visit China so soon .

"Everyone, come here!" Coach Wu shouted to all the players.

Lin Hui had been paying attention to these people since Coach Wu brought them in.

Listening to Coach Wu's voice, everyone quickly and neatly stood in several rows.

They are already used to this kind of training method, as long as there is an emergency, Coach Wu will call out first, and then line up, some people will drive others to stand up when they hear it. After a long time, everyone has become accustomed to the calling method of Coach Wu .

"This is the Russian athlete who came to our national team to visit China. We warmly welcome their arrival."

Coach Wu saw that everyone had stood up, and began to talk to everyone.

"They'll be practicing with everyone for the next week."

"My name is Alexander Sergeevich Simon. You can call me Simon"

"Natalia Sergeyevna Liama."

"Turgenev Boris"

The three foreigners introduced themselves respectively. Lin Hui didn't remember a single word. The names given by foreigners are different from ours. Their names are very long, with a name of 7-10 characters. Lin Hui was confused. Fortunately, he said that as long as the last few words of the name are fine.

It took Lin Hui a long time to understand their three athletes, two male table tennis players named Simon and Boris, and the female table tennis player named Liama.

Unlike domestic names, foreigners don’t just need to call their surnames whatever they want. The maximum is about four characters. Foreigners take their mother’s surname and father’s surname.It sounds very cumbersome.

Just now Coach Wu said that these players will practice with them for a week, which is really great, so that they have time to communicate with them.

After Coach Wu finished speaking, everyone began to practice the ball nervously.

At the same time, the three Russian friends were led past each table tennis table by Coach Wu. When they walked in front of Jianhua and Lin Hui, they didn't know what they were talking about.

A translator followed them, and the translator said to Coach Wu.

Maria said, "This style of play is rare in the world. Generally, the chance of winning by cutting the ball is not very high, but their style of play is still very unique."

Simon said, "I want to learn from them so that I can go back to our country and spread the word."

After watching all the styles of play with their foreign friends, Coach Wu left the training room with the foreign coaches, leaving them alone.

Simon, Boris and Lin Hui, Jianhua played a few rounds, Maria and Xu Xin played a few rounds.

The coach asked someone to tell them to organize a welcome party for them in the evening. Jianhua, Lin Hui, Xu Xin, Shaojie and foreign friends made a few rounds and then took them to the party specially organized for them. superior.

When they went, everyone set up a table on the grass, wrapped it with a white tablecloth, put some flowers, foreign wine, wine, fruits, cakes on it, and lit some candles, very Western style.

Everyone is ready and waiting for their seats.Lin Hui greeted them to sit down quickly.

Looking at the goblet that was almost full of wine in front of him, Lin Hui said, "Simon, Boris, and Maria welcome you, let's toast!"

"Thank you, thank you very much for your kind hospitality."

When it was almost time to eat, Simon sat beside Lin Hui and said to Lin Hui, "Today is the happiest day I have come to China, thank you! My dear partners, in order to thank you, I will pull us together Home accordion."

Simon stood up, walked to an open space, and took out the accordion he carried with him. Lin Hui hurriedly took the lead in applauding. Although everyone didn't know what Simon and Lin Hui said, they followed Lin Hui in applauding.

As the accordion was pulled up, Boris and Maria also came to the center, one of them sang and the other danced.

They have never seen foreign exotic customs, and everyone couldn't help applauding.

With the sound of applause, Maria jumped to Xu Xin's side and invited Xu Xin to join their team.

How could Xu Xin know how to dance this Russian dance? She waved her hand tactfully, but Maria was too enthusiastic and insisted on pulling Xu Xin to join.

On this special day, Xu Xin could only bite the bullet and follow Maria to the center of the stage.

Whatever Maria danced, Xu Xin danced along with her. Gradually, Xu Xin became familiar with Maria's dance.

Everyone watched Xu Xin and Maria dancing, and everyone couldn't help but waved their hands. Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, Simon also invited Lin Hui, Jianhua, and Shaojie.

Soon more and more dancers joined them, and everyone formed a circle, holding hands, dancing happily to the music together.

On a sunny night, a group of boys and girls were laughing, laughing and singing in the middle of the lawn, and the chaotic sounds floated in the air together.

On the second day, everyone came to the training room as scheduled. Xu Xin saw that Simon and Boris had already arrived, but Maria was nowhere to be seen until after the training. He asked others if Maria was not feeling well. Come.

After eating, Xu Xin knocked on Maria's door with a lunch box, and the translator who came with them opened the door.She told Xu Xin that Maria was lying inside.

After obtaining consent, Xu Xin walked to Maria's bed, and saw that Maria was pale and extremely tired, lying listlessly on the bed, very similar to her.

"Maria, are you better, I heard you are sick?"

"Thank you for coming to see me. I'm a little uncomfortable. I'll be fine after a while."

"Are you unable to eat, dizzy, nauseous?"

"Yes."

Xu Xin looked at Maria lying on the bed with no energy. She clearly came to a foreign country and refused to accept the local food.She took out the lunch box and handed it to Mayaya.

"Look what I brought you?"

"Tofu?"

"Tofu can cure your illness, don't you believe you can eat it?"

Xu Xin made a gesture of scooping it with a spoon. Maria looked at the piece of tofu suspiciously. She was very puzzled. Why did eating tofu relieve her pain? Is there any reason for this?

"Maria, you are not acclimatized. You are not used to our local food when you come from such a far away place. Just eat a piece of our local tofu. I was like you when I first came to BJ, and I also ate it. A good tofu."

She remembered that she had no appetite for anything to eat at that time, and she had some acid regurgitation, and she felt like vomiting after eating. Later, Lin Hui brought him a piece of tofu. At the beginning, her idea was how a piece of tofu could make people feel sick. It's not uncomfortable, I didn't expect to eat a piece of tofu!

Her dish, Maria, must be the same as her, unaccustomed to the environment, she asked the cafeteria for a piece of tofu when she was eating, put it in the lunch box and brought it to Maria.

"Really? Then let me try?"

Maria sat up with difficulty, glanced at Xu Xin, and put the tofu into her mouth with her eyes closed.

Very cool and refreshing!It is a bit bitter after a bite, but it will gradually return to sweetness, delicious.

"Xu Xin, it really doesn't seem so uncomfortable."

"That's right! You're eating up the leftover tofu, too."

Xu Xin looked at Maria with a hard-to-swallow expression just now, but now she took a spoon and ate all the tofu one bite at a time.

"Xu Xin, how do you say this in Chinese?"

"Eat tofu if you are not acclimatized to the soil and water."

Xu Xin slowly talked about eating tofu if you are not acclimatized, and Maria also talked about eating tofu if you are not acclimatized.

"Yes, it's just eating tofu if you're not acclimatized to the environment. Your explanation is great!"
