Here's the translation of the article content into English:
Listen to me! On January 1st, Beijing time, the 2024 season of the Chinese Ping Pong Super League reached an incredibly exciting finale. In the end, the women's team trophy was joyfully claimed by Shandong Luneng, marking a successful revenge against Shenzhen University, which made Shandong Luneng ecstatic!
This season, I noticed that their lineup is incredibly strong! Wang Manyu, Chen Xintong, and Qian Tianyi are all in great form and can contribute significantly to the team's score. Looking at Shenzhen University, they mainly relied on Sun Yingsha to hold the fort, but her teammates also performed quite well. Unfortunately, they were unable to secure the win in the end, which is a bit of a pity.
Wow, Shandong Weiqiao emerged victorious in the men's team event with a 3-0 victory over Huangshi Base. The key to this triumph lies in the first two sets, which were fiercely competitive matches that ended with close 3-2 victories. Lin Yunju and Liang Jinkun won 3-2 against Xiang Peng and Xue Fei, while Wang Chuqin also defeated Lin Shidong with a 3-2 score.
After those two sets, the situation became clear, leaving little suspense. It would be extremely difficult for Huangshi Base to make a comeback at this point. In the third set, Xue Fei lost to Liang Jinkun. If they could have won one of the first two sets, there might have been a chance. In this arena of strong competition, every game and every point is crucial. Shandong Weiqiao handled it better, exuding a fighting spirit and playing with high morale.
During this competition, Lin Yunju truly shone throughout! Partnering with Liang Jinkun in doubles, their cooperation has become increasingly默契, with an impressive win rate, securing victories in both the semi-finals and finals. Lin Yunju also had an outstanding performance in singles earlier in the tournament. Liang Jinkun maintained a stable state, contributing many points to the team. Wang Chuqin played a pivotal role as well.
The prize money has already been distributed! Shandong Weiqiao, having won the championship, took home a hefty 1 million yuan. Huangshi Base did well too, receiving 500,000 yuan. Shandong Mingrun also received 300,000 yuan. Additionally, the singles MVP award went to Lin Shidong, while the doubles MVP went to Lin Gaoyuan. The champion team received a rich array of prizes, including medals, mascots, trophies, and banners.
I am Lin Gaoyuan, and I've experienced quite a lot during this competition. I participated in 8 doubles matches, winning every single one whether partnering with Chen Yuanyu or Xu Haidong. However, when it comes to singles, I'm a bit depressed with a record of 1 win and 6 losses, which is quite a defeat. My doubles skills are quite strong, but I just can't seem to get my singles game going. Later, due to some personal matters that required me to go home, I had to let my teammate Xu Haidong accept the award on my behalf.
I am Lin Shidong, and in this singles competition, I achieved a remarkable record of 10 wins and 2 losses, even outshining Wang Chuqin's 9 wins and 1 loss. You know, selecting the MVP usually depends on the record and points accumulated. Although this method may not be the most perfect or closely aligned with the actual situation, it's the only way to evaluate things directly at the moment. After all, each match faces different opponents, and it's really hard to determine the value of each victory.
Look at Lin Shidong; he played two more matches than others. If Wang Chuqin could have continued to play up to 12 matches, there's a high probability that the singles MVP honor would have fallen into his hands. To be fair, both of them performed exceptionally well in this competition, and they're both fantastic.
I am Lin Shidong, and after the end of the Ping Pong Super League, I have something to say in the interview. This league left a deep impression on me, especially losing that match against Fan Zhendong and Wang Chuqin. However, this isn't entirely bad because I gained a lot in terms of experience, rhythm, and other aspects, which counts as significant growth.
Fan Zhendong must feel regretful! The team advanced to the semi-finals with a fourth-place finish, but who would have thought that after losing in the semi-finals, they could only end up with fourth place according to the ranking from the first stage. Keep in mind that Fan Zhendong and Xu Xin missed many matches in the first stage, which had a significant impact on the ranking. He was very competitive in the singles MVP race, with good results previously.
On the women's side, Chen Xintong is amazing! Whether in doubles or singles, she has been invincible, maintaining a perfect record with 9 consecutive victories, making her the well-deserved MVP. As for Qian Tianyi, her outstanding performance in doubles earned her the doubles MVP title, along with a 90,000 yuan cash prize.
