Recently, the annual table tennis World Youth Championships came to an end, in the U15 age group of 4 women's events, Japan's Zhang Benmei and won all the championships, achieving a grand slam. After the game, Zhang Benmeihe's feats were widely reported by the Japanese media, and Japanese fans believed that her talent was even higher than Thato Mimako, and the burden of challenging the national table tennis women's team in the future would fall on Zhang Benmeihe.
You know, Zhang Benmeihe is only 14 years old at present, and she comes from the famous Zhang Ben family. Her brother Zhang Benzhihe is a well-known men's singles leader for Japanese fans, and his current world ranking is as high as 5th, which can be said to be a phenomenon of Japanese men's table tennis. However, the Zhang Ben family was originally from Sichuan, China, their parents are well-known table tennis players in China, in 2014, their parents made a renunciation of Chinese nationality, but instead joined the Japanese nationality, since then Zhang Benzhihe, Zhang Benmeihe also began to play for the Japanese national team.
At that time, Chinese fans were extremely ashamed of the Zhang family's betrayal of nationality, and the Internet was full of insults. Whenever Zhang Benzhihe participated in a competition hosted by China, the audience at the scene was basically booed, which showed that Zhang Ben's reputation in the hearts of Chinese fans was not very good. However, Zhang Ben did not regret this choice, he withstood a huge voice of doubt, step by step gradually grew, with excellent talent and unremitting experience, Zhang Benzhihe was finally supported by the Japanese team as the leader of men's table tennis, he also under the careful tutelage of Japan's national resources, achieved extraordinary achievements, and now he is firmly in the world's men's singles first-class seat, and fan Zhendong, Ma Long and other people of national table tennis have fought many times.
Over time, domestic fans slowly began to recognize Zhang Benzhihe's strength, and more brainless black fans also began to change their concepts. After all, it was their parents who made the change of nationality, and the Zhang Family also knew that if they continued to stay in China now, they might not be able to emerge in the national table tennis with Zhang Benzhihe's strength, so coming to Japan was also a helpless choice. On the occasion of Zhang Benzhihe's participation in the college entrance examination, many Chinese fans specially issued blessings for Zhang Benzhihe, hoping that he would achieve good results in the examination, which shows the change in the attitude of the Chinese people.
Today, her sister Zhang Benmei and Hao have won four titles in women's singles, women's doubles, mixed doubles and women's teams at the World Youth Championships, which have also attracted the attention of many fans. If you follow such a trajectory, Nahon Motomi and may indeed succeed Ito Mimakoto and truly become the leader of Japan's women's singles. Zhang Benmeihe's continuous highlight performance has also been commented by the former national table tennis demon Deng Liping, who said in an interview that Zhang Benmeihe's strength is the top of the Japanese players she has seen, and the national table tennis players will inevitably be challenged the most in the future.
It is undeniable that Japan's development in the field of table tennis is very rapid, especially after the integration of the Zhang Family, Japan has significantly improved in terms of the number and quality of high-quality players. Here, I also sincerely wish Zhang Benzhihe and Zhang Benmeihe more achievements in the table tennis arena.
