Chen Siming, I haven't seen you for a long time!
The beginning of 2022 will let fans who like Chen Siming sweep away the "ball famine" of the past two years. From the fourth leg of the Elite Tour to the Ace vs. Ace Chinese Billiards Super Match, for the first time in two years, we saw Chen Siming so active on the field.
The sudden outbreak of the epidemic in early 2020 has changed the trajectory of many people's lives, and Chen Siming is no exception. In 2020 and 2021, counting Chen Siming's moments on the field, it is nothing more than the Lunar New Year Cup in early 2020, the two head-to-head kicking tournaments with Chu Bingjie in the summer of 2020, and the first season of Ace vs. Ace in early 2021, during which there are occasional sporadic appearances, but they are not as active as before. In the two years when there were almost no competitions to play, Chen Siming was more active on the self-media platform, and the video content ranged from technical teaching to fancy performances.
Looking back on these two long years, Chen Siming has a lot of feelings: "At the beginning, I held the hope that the epidemic would soon pass, and I riveted all kinds of competitions to prepare. After that, I decided to make some short videos, I wanted to let everyone see me through these platforms, and I couldn't say that if I didn't come out of the game, I couldn't see people. Later, I went to practice in the field, and I knew that the game would come back sooner or later, and I wanted to reserve some energy. ”
"Life hasn't changed much, I used to play at home and abroad, and when I got home, I preferred to 'stay at home'. These two years are also a process of rest and rest. ”
Chen Siming's achievements and strength are beyond doubt, which is why she can walk on the ace-ace field for two consecutive years - Chen Siming first studied snooker with Pang Weiguo, and later turned to the United States, and has won 26 American world championships, successfully achieved a grand slam, and long-term ranking first in the women's world; in the Chinese field, Chen Siming is the only player who has twice won the women's championship of the Chinese Billiards World Championship; Chen Siming also won a personal gold medal in the snooker 6 red ball event at the 2010 Asian Games. She defeated One of the strongest women's snooker players today, Wu Anyi, an active player of the World Snooker Tour, in the semi-finals.
However, after all, it is a long-distance battle, Chen Siming is still trying to find the feeling of the game. "I used to run, I like to play the rhythm of the game, and the recent state has something to do with the fact that the race is less. Next, we must actively participate in some high-quality competitions in China and quickly find the feel. ”
For Chen Siming, participating in the elite tour that gathers a large number of Chinese-style heroes and the ace super confrontation tournament with a prosperous lineup is naturally an excellent occasion for the "Big Devil" to improve its status. Both the Elite Tour and Ace vs. Ace are mixed-play matches, but the rules are very different – the Elite Tour is tied to heads-up, and the Ace vs. Ace is a man and a woman.
"There is a big gap between male and female players, and there are gaps in the delicacy of rushing and handling the ball, execution, accuracy, and defense. Leveling means a lot more processing, and the ability requirements for female players are relatively high. Let the latter one be better than the draw, take off a difficult ball after a lot less processing, less K balls and difficult balls call position, the error rate will be reduced. But despite this, the woman is still at a disadvantage. ”
In the first season, Chen Siming played two games with Chu Bingjie in the kicking hall match. "After playing, I know that there is a big gap between (and male players) and that the flat play is more cruel. But at the same time, I know which aspect I need to improve, and the standard is high, so that I can make progress. ”
High standards are the credo that Chen Siming has been consistent in her contact with billiards for nearly two decades, and it is also the reason why she can achieve so many achievements at just 28 years old. Looking ahead to 2022, Chen Siming, who plans to shift his focus to Chinese billiards, still keeps "high standards" in mind.
"Although these two years have been delayed, I am still in the year of fighting. I will put more energy into training, and then go to training and playing around Chinese billiards. ”
"Playing Chinese billiards, my mentality is to learn. I didn't practice Chinese billiards since I was a child, I had never practiced systematically before, and although I had won two World Championships, many of the balls were not handled so well. ”
"I still have to pursue championships, competitive sports still rely on results. However, playing Chinese billiards, I hope that my skills can be improved again, moving closer to a more masculine direction. To be precise, the offense is sharper, the performance is more stable, there are fewer inexplicable mistakes, and there are more lethalities. ”
Chen Siming's goal for himself is to make more progress in the new year: "Let the water come to fruition." Usually do a good job of training, set the standard higher, and the desired results can be slowly played. ”
