At the retirement ceremony, Mizutani Falcon also received a blessing from the Chinese national table tennis player Ma Long, Ma Long specially recorded a video to wish Mizutani Falcon a happy retirement, but in the recording content, Ma Long did not forget Versailles, asked Mizutani Falcon the biggest regret of retiring is not to win himself?
Malone said, "Hello Mizutani! Long time no see! I heard that you are going to have a retirement ceremony, the two of us grew up together, have been competing, respecting each other, you have been working hard for your dreams, and finally won the Olympic gold medal. But I don't know if you have the biggest regret of your career that you haven't beaten me? ”
