The news that Fan Zhendong withdrew from the world rankings has caused quite a stir, leaving me somewhat confused, as if someone suddenly didn't want their report card anymore. Despite being ranked first in the world, he said he didn't want it and just let it go. This matter is simple in one sense, but also really complicated. Before the New Year's Day, the Chinese Table Tennis Association issued a statement saying that Fan Zhendong, Ma Long, and Chen Meng were going to withdraw from the world rankings. This came out of nowhere and caught everyone off guard. This boils down to the athletes not wanting to participate anymore, feeling that the current competition rules are unfair to them. Instead of being led by the nose, they might as well not play at all. After all, they can still compete domestically and life goes on as usual. These three athletes are indeed tough. They knew that withdrawing from the world rankings would make it difficult for them to participate in international competitions in the future, yet they made this decision together. Their united stance is truly admirable. Liu Guoliang also stood with the athletes this time, saying that he fully supports the athletes in protecting their rights. This statement warms the heart, after all, family takes care of family. In essence, withdrawing from the world rankings is a signal, telling the International Table Tennis Federation not to overstep. Chinese players are not easy to bully. Everyone is doing this for the good of the sport, so why make things so…

Recently, the Chinese table tennis world has been in turmoil. Especially since the start of the Super League, various unexpected events have occurred frequently. Firstly, fan culture has caused a lot of trouble! When Fan Zhendong participated in the Super League and arrived at his hotel, he was surrounded by fans, resulting in poor rest at night! In addition, he was also insulted by a student from a police school. The incident involving Fan Zhendong had not completely passed when Wang Chuqin went to the hospital for treatment, only to have his personal information leaked by a doctor. This was followed by a college teacher angrily scolding Ma Long and Fan Zhendong, who later apologized. Just when the fan culture was not so crazy anymore, the players went wild! Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng could not accept the new rule from WTT that fines them for not participating in competitions, so they both announced their withdrawal from the world rankings. As a result, Liu Guoliang, the chairman of the Chinese Table Tennis Association, chairman of WTT, and first vice-chairman of the International Table Tennis Federation, was put in an awkward position. Two capable players may be absent from WTT events for a long time. However, this also led to fans directing their anger towards Liu Guoliang. Liu Guoliang responded to Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng's withdrawal from the world rankings. He stated that he fully understands, supports, and respects their personal choices and decisions. As the chairman of the Chinese Table Tennis Association, he will do his utmost to support…

Recently, Zhang Jike made a candid statement during a live broadcast, without naming anyone: "There are those in the national team who are blindly confident, very much so, but actually lack the necessary strength. Fans, don't be offended, results speak for everything. I won't name names, it's not good! I used to be like that too, but later I realized that blind confidence doesn't work if you can't win matches; you need to improve your own abilities." These words caused quite a stir, although Zhang Jike did not name anyone specifically, the comment section erupted with accusations from netizens that he was subtly criticizing Wang Chuqin! As the fastest player to achieve a Grand Slam in history, Zhang Jike's statement is entirely justified. Competitive sports are all about results, and completing a Grand Slam in just 445 days is truly unprecedented. Coincidentally, he achieved this feat at the age of 24, leading many fans to associate him with the similarly aged Wang Chuqin! Netizens' doubts are based on solid evidence. When Zhang Jike mentioned achievements during his live broadcast, he was referring to the three major competitions: the World Cup, the World Championships, and the Olympics. Although Wang Chuqin won gold medals in mixed doubles and men's team events at the Paris Olympics, the term "Grand Slam" only refers to singles, not doubles or team events. It is an undeniable fact that the strength of the national table tennis team has declined. Previously, the requirement for participating in Olympic singles was to have at least one championship from the World…

Recently, the event of Fan Zhendong withdrawing from the world rankings has caused a sensation in the sports world, attracting widespread attention and heated discussions from all sectors. On the eve of New Year's Day, December 30, 2024, the Chinese Table Tennis Association solemnly issued a statement on its official website, expressing full understanding and respect for the decision of three athletes, Fan Zhendong, Ma Long, and Chen Meng, to withdraw from the world rankings, and that all relevant procedures have been handled in an orderly manner. It should be noted that this decision means that the scope of events they can participate in will be greatly restricted in the future. They have little hope of participating in various events organized by WTT, and their future choices may be limited to domestic table tennis super leagues or National Games. Even the opportunity to represent the national team at the Olympics, such a supreme moment of glory, has become very slim. In response to the withdrawal of the three Olympic champions from the national table tennis team, Liu Guoliang finally made his first response amidst much anticipation and attention. As chairman of the Chinese Table Tennis Association, he is firm and clear in his stance, stating that he fully supports the athletes in defending their rights and protecting their personal interests. Liu Guoliang also emphasized that if they choose to return to the international arena at some point in the future, the Chinese Table Tennis Association will spare no effort to provide them with comprehensive support and assistance to participate in…

It seems that many fans did not expect that Zhang Jike, the former national table tennis Olympic champion and Grand Slam winner, has now transformed into a "whistleblower" host in the live broadcast room. Indeed, in a recent live broadcast, Zhang Jike exposed a lot about the national team and even suggested that he could add a class to his course on the secrets of the national team (main players). As the absolute core of the former national table tennis team, Zhang Jike, who was also known as a "great demon" during his playing days, undoubtedly has a say in some internal matters of the national team. After all, he spent many years in the national team and was the core of the national table tennis team. After a glorious playing career, Zhang Jike once ventured into the entertainment industry and had a relationship with the entertainment star Jing Tian. However, Zhang Jike has returned to his old profession and started coaching table tennis, even opening live broadcasts to sell courses online. Recently, Zhang Jike mentioned in the live broadcast that there are players in the national team who are blindly confident but lack the corresponding strength. "I won't name names, it's not good. There is blind confidence in the national team, very blind. In fact, they don't have that strength. Fans, don't be upset, results represent everything. When there is this kind of blind confidence, how should I put it? Be more solid, improve your strength. Those who have strength but lack confidence need to learn from the blindness…

On December 31st, Beijing time, during the transition between the old and the new, the table tennis world remains a hot topic on search engines. Even Zhang Jike, the former national player and fastest Grand Slam winner, has gotten involved. Recently, he made some remarks in a live broadcast that some fans found hard to accept. What exactly did he say? It turns out that in the live broadcast, he mentioned that the players in the national table tennis team have blind confidence, which is very unreasonable because they actually lack the necessary skills. However, he was clear about what he was saying, as he also emphasized that he would not name anyone but instead offered advice, suggesting that they should work harder to improve their skills. After Zhang Jike finished speaking in the live broadcast, as expected, many fans were unhappy, especially the fans of Wang Chuqin and Sun Yingsha. Both of them are ranked first in points and have a high popularity. Before the Olympics, many fans believed that they could meet at the peak and win the Olympic singles championship. However, at the Olympics, Wang Chuqin and Sun Yingsha failed to win the championship, which drew criticism from many people. Some of Zhang Jike's words make sense, such as the idea that one must have a solid foundation and improve their skills before being confident. There is nothing wrong with this statement. However, it is inappropriate for him to make such remarks without naming anyone in the live broadcast, as it only serves to stir up disputes…

Recently, the withdrawal of Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng from the WTT world rankings has attracted significant attention. Since Fan Zhendong announced his withdrawal from the world rankings, there have been two camps on the internet. On one hand, some fans believe that as the top player of the national table tennis team, Fan Zhendong's withdrawal has a huge impact on the Chinese team. However, on the other hand, there are also fans who believe that even if Fan Zhendong steps down, the Chinese table tennis team is full of talent, and it is believed that others can replace him and continue to move forward. Fan Zhendong's withdrawal does not have a significant impact on the national table tennis team. As the turmoil continues to intensify, Zhang Jike recently spoke out during his live broadcast. On the other hand, many fans have been looking forward to the latest response from Liu Guoliang, which has now arrived. Let's take a detailed look at what the situation is. Firstly, in a recent live broadcast, Zhang Jike expressed his thoughts on the performance and strength of the national team's main players, drawing considerable attention. He said that there are actually main players in the national team who are blindly confident and do not have the actual ability. Some fans also dislike the idea that results represent everything. After Zhang Jike said this, it may seem to outsiders that there are two possible meanings. On one hand, it may be that some so-called main players' abilities are overrated. On the other hand, there are…

For many fans of the Chinese national table tennis team, the "Twin Stars Era" led by Liu Guoliang and Kong Linghui, as well as the "Three Musketeers Era" dominated by Ma Long, Xu Xin, and Zhang Jike, are two periods of great fame for the national team. However, even famous national players have their dark sides. It means that while the "Twin Stars" and "Three Musketeers" did usher in a new era, there were also national players who strayed from the right path. Among the Twin Stars, Kong Linghui, known as the "Prince of Table Tennis," was one who went astray; among the Three Musketeers, it was Zhang Jike who bore the brunt of criticism. Zhang Jike's scandals are not discussed here, but suffice it to say that he has now fallen to the point of coaching at a private club. On the other hand, Xu Xin and Ma Long of the Three Musketeers have promising futures and developments. Kong Linghui of the Twin Stars, however, became a pariah due to accumulating huge gambling debts. Gradually disappearing from the sports world, if not for older fans, few people would have a deep impression of the name Kong Linghui. The time when Kong Linghui's huge gambling debt was exposed was May 2017, manifested as becoming the defendant in a lawsuit. The plaintiff in this case was Marina Bay Sands Pte.Ltd., the operating company of Singapore's Marina Bay Sands Casino. In the complaint, Marina Bay Sands mentioned that Kong Linghui borrowed 1 million Singapore dollars from the casino on February 19, 2015.…
