Chapter 57 Kong Fengge's super shocking comeback, men's singles and men's doubles both entered the semi-finals After Li Ying advanced to the semi-finals, he watched the next battle with Chen Daqian. In Zone 3/4, the top eight players are Dimitri and Tomoaki Furukawa. Li Ying seemed very calm, but Chen Daqian was quite concerned. "Aying, in future international competitions, both Dimitri and Tomoaki Furukawa will be the biggest enemies of our Xia country's table tennis team. They are working hard to learn the most advanced table tennis techniques, and both Germany and Ryu-Okura's table tennis associations attach great importance to the training and improvement of skills." Chen Daqian said earnestly. Li Ying smiled and said, "I will not underestimate these foreign table tennis superstars. However, I have my own way. As long as I improve step by step and keep training day and night, they will not be able to catch up with me!" Chen Daqian smiled slightly. "Aying, I admire your confidence." Chen Daqian placed all his dreams and hopes of achieving a Grand Slam on Li Ying. And so far, Li Ying has lived up to his expectations.
The match between Dimitri and Tomoaki Furukawa begins. Their strengths are similar, and they have been at their peak since the first goal of the game. The most notable technical feature of Dimitri is his serve, a squat serve, also known as a submarine serve. The attack is fast, the rotation is strong, and the landing point is tricky. This serving method can produce balls with a variety of spins, including reverse spin side up, side spin, side down, no spin, etc., and the spin is difficult to judge. As for Tomoaki Furukawa, his ball speed is very fast and his connection is also fast. In short. Their encounter was like Mars hitting the Earth. Because their strength is comparable, their battle is very exciting. Both sides are on the same level. After the forehand competition, we will compete in the backhand. then. A direct seven-game battle. In the end, the slightly more experienced Dimitri was the winner. Tomoaki Furukawa paid the price for his youthful vigor. Although Tomoaki Furukawa appears humble in front of the Xia country table tennis team members, he is very arrogant as long as his opponent is not a member of the Xia country table tennis team. On the court, his most striking feature is his roar. Every time you score a point, you have to yell. In this case, in the 3/4 division, Dimitri will make it to the semi-finals.
Tomoaki Furukawa was very unwilling. Li Ying and Chen Daqian looked at his unwilling expression. Li Ying said calmly: "Furukawa Tomoaki paid such a high price, and felt that he could not make a name for himself in Xia Country, so he naturalized and joined the Ryuo Country national team. As a result, he can't even beat Dimitri now, and he feels that it is not worth it." Chen Daqian said indifferently: "It's his own choice, he has to go through it even if he has to kneel. But he really can't make a name for himself in the Xiaguo national table tennis team. With his true strength, it's good enough for him to be able to enter the national second team." "But now he is a male table tennis player from Ryuo Country. He is being trained by Ryuo Country with all his strength and is making rapid progress. In the future, he will become a great enemy of our Xia Country's national table tennis team." Chen Daqian does not belittle Tomoaki Furukawa's skills, although at present, they are not as good as Li Ying's. But if facing Liang Long and Kong Fengge, Furukawa Tomoaki is fully capable of fighting. In this battle, Tomoaki Furukawa was completely defeated due to his youth and impatience. If the game had been more sedate, Dimitri might have been defeated. Next, it was the turn of the 2/4 division. Kong Fengge VS Thiem. This matchup is also eye-catching. Especially now that Dimitri has reached the semi-finals, table tennis fans across Europe naturally hope that the twins can also reach the semi-finals. and. Tim's opponent is still the unknown person from Xia State, Kong Fengge. Kong Fengge has not achieved very good results yet. Therefore, in the eyes of table tennis enthusiasts in Europe, he is naturally an unknown person. Unlike Liang Long, at least he often wins open championships and is ranked third in the world. At this moment, Chen Daqian deliberately tested Li Ying. "Aying, from the perspective of a fair and impartial third party, who do you think will win this match?" Hearing this, Xu Guinian, who had just arrived here, looked at Li Ying curiously. Xu Guinian has just finished training with Liang Long, and Liang Long currently needs to rest and recharge his energy. "I'm optimistic about Feng Ge!" Li Ying said with a smile. After these words were spoken, Chen Daqian and Xu Guinian looked at Li Ying in surprise. "Are you saying this because Feng Ge is on our team?" Xu Guinian asked directly. "No, I really think Feng Ge has hope." Li Ying said with a smile. In his mind, in the fantasy space, Li Ying had just simulated a match between Kong Fengge and Thiem. In the end, Kong Fengge won.
Chen Daqian was a little bit unconvinced. Kong Fengge certainly has the technical skills, but his opponent is Thiem after all. At present, Thiem is arguably the strongest among the foreign table tennis superstars. At the start of the game, Thiem had the advantage. After all, this is Thiem's home court. Don’t underestimate the home advantage. When European table tennis fans who came to watch the game cheered for Thiem, the momentum was overwhelming. In recent years, Xiaguo's Qianlima has lost many international championships. But in the sport of table tennis, Qianlima still has super dominance. Because of this, European table tennis fans particularly like Thiem, who is playing on his home soil, to defeat Kong Fengge. The German twin stars will finally meet in the final, that is the most beautiful scene. After the first four games, Kong Fengge was 1-3 behind Tim. Seeing this, Chen Daqian looked at Li Ying and said with a smile: "A Ying, do you still think Feng Ge can win this battle?" Li Ying nodded heavily. "Feng Ge has a kind of bravery in his bones. I believe he can accomplish a stunning reversal!" Li Ying said with a confident smile. Because the current trend of the game is exactly the same as the simulated battle between Kong Fengge and Thiem in the fantasy space just now. At this moment, Xu Guinian also said: "I agree with Ah Ying. Feng Ge does not have the gene of cowardice in his bones." Longfenggui was once highly expected by the Xiaguo national table tennis team. Liang Long, Kong Fengge and Xu Guinian also often trained together. Xu Guinian knows Kong Fengge better than Chen Daqian. Because Qianlima was the core player of the Xia national table tennis team at that time, they rarely looked down. Chen Daqian looked at the game. 2 to 3, Kong Fengge won back a game. Kong Fengge became more and more courageous as the game went on, forcing the score to a 3-3 tie. Finally, the seventh inning was over. Kong Fengge completed a stunning reversal. This was a huge comeback from 3-0 down to 4-0. Kong Fengge proved himself. After the game, Chen Daqian couldn't help but sigh. "Sure enough, I am still old!"
Chen Daqian sighed. "Brother Qian, you are only 31 years old this year, you are not old!" Xu Guinian said with a smile. Chen Daqian glanced at Xu Guinian and said, "Xiao Nian, sometimes when you talk, the numbers don't necessarily need to be so precise!" Xu Guinian: “…” After Kong Fengge defeated Tim, he let out a long roar to the sky. Li Ying smiled and said, "Kong Fengge probably wants to tear up his jersey to vent his excitement and happiness now." Xu Guinian smiled and said, "That's not the case. We just made it to the semi-finals of a regional open tournament. If we won the World Table Tennis Championships, we would probably do the same!" Chen Daqian said dimly: "That's much better than some people being eliminated in the second round." Xu Guinian looked at Chen Daqian with resentment, "Brother Qian, if you don't want to talk, you don't have to." Li Ying ignored the fact that Chen Daqian and Xu Guinian were hurting each other, and their relationship was very good. One is the Magic City team’s sky-supporting white jade pillar, and the other is the Magic City team’s sea-spanning purple gold beam. In the quarter-finals, Liang Long vs. Felix. At this moment, the European table tennis fans who came to watch the game were becoming even more crazy. Many table tennis enthusiasts had a heart attack after they witnessed the miracle of Tim coming back from 3-0 down to 4-0 behind Kong Fengge. So now, they put all their hopes on Felix. As for this match, Chen Daqian, Li Ying and Xu Guinian all felt that there was no suspense. The facts have indeed proved to be true. Liang Long won four games in a row and swept Felix. Chen Daqian smiled and said, "Now when Aaron plays, he is not as calm and dull as before. He starts very quickly and is very active in mobilizing himself!" "If we weren't more active, we would have been swept four games in a row by Aying and lost directly!" Kong Fengge made an accurate summary. Li Ying glanced at Kong Fengge and said, "If you don't know how to speak, you don't have to say anything." Kong Fengge retorted: "Isn't that the truth?" Li Ying joked, "It's just to tell you not to say such nonsense!" Kong Fengge: “???” Xu Guinian: “???” such. The top four men's singles finalists of the Denmark Open have been announced. at the same time.
The semi-final matchups were also announced shortly afterwards. Diplodocus vs Dimitri! Li Ying VS Kong Fengge! Xu Guinian was very dissatisfied when he saw this scene. "Why are the organizing committee so blind? Can't they arrange for Liang Long to fight Kong Fengge?" Kong Fengge: "Xiao Nian, you can shut up!" Chen Daqian smiled and said, "This is nothing. This is common in international competitions. You will often fight hard one second and form a doubles team to compete for the championship the next. In the end, it is more important to fight together for the team championship." The semi-final match is tomorrow. Next up is the men's doubles quarterfinals. The men's doubles pairs that advanced from the upper half are Liang Long/Kong Fengge, the Felix brothers, and Tomoaki Furukawa/Yasuki Ishii. The strong men's doubles combinations in the lower half are Li Ying/Xu Guinian, German twins Thiem/Dmitriy, Truus... Truss looked at Li Ying with resentment on his face. The men's singles experience is fine. Now in men's doubles, we will face Li Ying. Truss complained speechlessly: "Li Ying, I feel like I have the worst luck in this Denmark Open." Xu Guinian asked curiously, "Aying, what is Truss talking about?" Li Ying translated Truss's words, and Xu Guinian suddenly became excited. "Fuck, his luck in the lottery is worse than mine." Truss was puzzled as to why Xu Guinian suddenly became more excited than him. Li Ying didn't say anything. This change in Xu Guinian was what Li Ying hoped to see. then. In the men's doubles match, Xu Guinian gave his all and brought his golden left hand to full play. Directly sweep the Truss combination. First to advance into the men's doubles semi-finals. If nothing unexpected happens, they will face the men's doubles combination of Gemini tomorrow. For a moment, Li Ying felt a hint of anticipation. (End of this chapter)
